Horrible CNN Interview for Obama
The BlackSphere ^ | June 25, 2019 | Kevin Jackson

Posted on 06/26/2019 6:13:13 AM PDT by Jess Kitting

It’s only a matter of time before AG Bill Barr and newly appointed investigator John Durham get to this bit of information.

In an interview with CNN on July 22 of last year, crooked former Director of National Intelligence, James Clapper inadvertently spilled the beans on Obama:

Transcript:

CLAPPER: “If it weren’t for President Obama we might not have done the intelligence community assessment that we did that set up a whole sequence of events which are still unfolding today, notably Special Counsel Mueller’s investigation. President Obama is responsible for that. It was he who tasked us to do that intelligence community assessment in the first place.”

Clapper is on record saying that Obama gave the order to begin the investigation. An investigation to which Obama knew the outcome.

The “Intelligence Community assessment” mentioned by Clapper involved using the “unverified and salacious” Steele dossier. Note that it was disgraced former FBI director James Comey who described the dossier as such.

Moreover, we now know that the dossier is worse than unverified, as it is a complete work of fiction compiled from Russian disinformation source by British agent Christopher Steele and financed by the Clinton campaign.

President Barack Obama ordered the US Government espionage against the 17 Republican preswidential candidated candidates.

Of course he did, and nothing will happen to any of them.

Barack is laughing his ass off. Barack knows that his “fundamental transformation” of our country is ongoing, and he will never, ever be questioned, let alone charged, for any of his effing antics.

No orange jumpsuit. The man and others must be executed and ashes tossed to the wind.

The crimes against the Republic are too great for them to remain alive and dangerous

If you are going to sleep until then, you will beat the record of Rip Van Winkle.

Hillary will never be brought to justice. Podesta will never be brought to justice. None of Hillary's henchmen will ever face justice. And they know it.

Obama knew about it all along.
He didn't just know about it. He, Vajayjay and Hillary are the masterminds that devised it.

All the rest are sock puppets that will fall on their swords to protect their master puppeteer.

To prevent memorialization. Any grave containing a body or ashes would become an instant shrine. There must be no place where marterdom can be worshipped

Until then, despite all, there is no justice and this political democracy oligarchy has been and remains badly corrupted.

Two words to watch in political speech,"democracy" and "govern". You're being groomed to accept your chains like good sheeple. The "deep state" is pure propaganda to hide the fact that DC is corrupt down to it's roots.
The idea that the Senate is going to release the names in the "pervert" fund is pure fantasy.

Pure NYT BS that the dossier was Russian disinformation. The Steele Dossier was a product of Nellie Ohr, Sid Blumenthal, Cody Shearer, Glenn Simpson, and Steele.

Report: Russia ‘Dossier’ Based on 10-Year-Old Wall Street Journal Articles

Glenn Simpson of Fusion GPS

JOEL B. POLLAK

21 Dec 2017

Lee Smith of Tablet magazine has traced the origins of the Russia “dossier” — the Democrat-funded opposition research project that may have laid the foundations for the ongoing Russia investigation — to several Wall Street Journal articles that appeared in print a decade ago.

Smith’s article, “Did President Obama Read the ‘Steele Dossier’ in the White House Last August?”, suggests that the information compiled by opposition research firm Fusion GPS, with funding from Hillary Clinton’s campaign and the Democratic National Committee, could have been repackaged as genuine U.S. government intelligence and presented to President Barack Obama on that basis as his administration began investigating Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election. Smith recounts how the “dossier” likely prompted the surveillance and investigation of aides to Donald Trump by the Obama administration, and efforts to delegitimize the incoming administration.

He notes:

[I]f a sitting president used the instruments of state, including the intelligence community, to disseminate and legitimize a piece of paid opposition research in order to first obtain warrants to spy on the other party’s campaign, and then to de-legitimize the results of an election once the other party’s candidate won, we’re looking at a scandal that dwarfs Watergate—a story not about a bad man in the White House, but about the subversion of key security institutions that are charged with protecting core elements of our democratic process while operating largely in the shadows.

But the real news in Smith’s well-researched article is that the information compiled by Fusion GPS in the dossier might have relied heavily on earlier reporting done by the firm’s founder about Russian lobbying in the U.S.

Smith writes:

A Tablet investigation using public sources to trace the evolution of the now-famous dossier suggests that central elements of the Russiagate scandal emerged not from the British ex-spy Christopher Steele’s top-secret “sources” in the Russian government—which are unlikely to exist separate from Russian government control—but from a series of stories that Fusion GPS co-founder Glenn Simpson and his wife Mary Jacoby co-wrote for The Wall Street Journal well before Fusion GPS existed, and Donald Trump was simply another loud-mouthed Manhattan real estate millionaire.

Simpson and Jacoby co-wrote a Journal article in April 2007, “How Lobbyists Help Ex-Soviets Woo Washington.” In it, Smith notes, they identified Paul Manafort as a key player in introducing Russians to Beltway circles. They kept reporting on him over the years. When Manafort was hired to manage the Trump campaign, Simpson — by now running Fusion GPS — made him a focus of his research, and knew enough background information to build a plausible case.

Smith points out that Fusion GPS had few sources within Russia. Nellie Ohr, who also worked with Fusion GPS and happened to be married to a senior official in Obama’s Department of Justice, had not lived in Russia for decades. on the Even former Christopher Steele, the former British spy who was hired to work on the dossier, probably had few good contacts. Simpson’s earlier Journal reporting was probably his best resource. And the CIA and FBI probably had few better sources: as Smith points out, their intelligence on Russia was terrible.

So the entire Russia investigation may not be based on actual intelligence at all, but on reporting that is ten years out of date. Manafort’s enduring Russia ties certainly provided fodder for Special Counsel Robert Mueller, but the overall theory that Russia may have colluded with the Trump campaign is looking shoddier than ever.

“Barack Hussein Obama is both a Traitor & Turncoat.”

Well, technically he has to be an American before he can be a traitor, and I’m still not sure about that.
