Chairman Nunes and Gowdy Meet With DOJ, FBI and ODNI to Discuss Non-Compliance With Congressional

CONSERVATIVE TREEHOUSE ^ | 5/10/2018 | SUNDANCE

[bitt]

The current issue is the DOJ and FBI refusing to comply with a previous letter sent by Chairman Devin Nunes to Jeff Sessions requesting information pertinent to ongoing review of potential FISA abuse.

Chairman Nunes sent Main Justice a classified letter asking questions. DOJ responded saying they would not comply with providing information (letter below). The Washington Post claimed Nunes was looking for information on an FBI/DOJ ‘source’:

“Top White House officials, with the assent of President Trump, agreed to back the decision to withhold the information. They were persuaded that turning over Justice Department documents could risk lives by potentially exposing the source, a U.S. citizen who has provided intelligence to the CIA and FBI, according to multiple people familiar with the discussion and the person’s role.” (link)

Additionally, this “source” was later also described as a witness for Robert Mueller’s ongoing investigation.

“Sounds like the person is a CIA spy type person who also works on real missions. Otherwise, how can they say lives could be endangered?
Did Obama have the CIA infiltrate Trump’s campaign? “

if it WAS a CIA type acting as an intel agency SPY inside a campaign, they were a traitor to America and deserve the death penalty. If the CIA has “real missions” that involve infiltrating presidential campaigns, everyone involved should literally be given the Valkyrie, von Stauffenberg, treatment.

Our corrupt state had more than one plant in the Trump campaign and into the Trump admin. Sessions being the most glaring and devastating one...

This is a massive conspiracy—A massive treason conspiracy. That’s why they’re pulling out all the stops to finish their coup and cover this up.

Trump can declassify anything he wants. It is 7 months until the midterm elections. He will declassify at the best politically strategic moment. In the interim period the Deep State is being exposed itself for its illegal and corrupt ways.

My prediction is the first week of September could be very interesting.

It was that dolt Papadopolous, he had narc written all over his stupid face. He was blatantly obvious attempting to interject himself into matters far above his volunteer station and claiming ludicrously overblown status to outsiders.

Papadopolous then just so happened to feed his wild claims to another, foreign agent thereby creating a sort of circular “trap” that only has propaganda value in the ongoing attempt to create an impeachment scenario. It won’t hold up to even cursory examination but then it wasn’t expected to get this far.

I don’t know which is more frightening, that our putative intelligence agencies are this bumbling and amateurish, or that they’re colluding to bring down a sitting President.

[enduserindy]

I do.

“Secrecy is being used to cover up the intel agencies coup attempt. Time for all the DOJ and FBI -bullshit- to come to an end. EVERYTHING related to this farce must be declassified and laid on the table for the American people to judge.”

100%!

[laplata]

I see your good point.

We will soon find out who the inside source was. But to your point, what is even more important is to find out exactly who in the FBI/DOJ was behind this scheme and what they did to cover it up. How high up did it go? We need to smoke out ALL of the plotters who had any involvement in planning and/or authorizing this conspiracy.

[RegulatorCountry]

There will be a concerted effort to halt such a thing, out of fear that it’ll “bring down the government,” as if what they’ve been doing isn’t doing just that.

Sunlight is the best disinfectant. Let the chips fall where they may, and if people hang then they hang.

Apropos of nothing, I highly recommend this @ChuckRossDC from March on a U.S. citizen with CIA and MI6 ties who for some weird reason started asking to meet with Trump affiliates about hacked Russian e-mails. https://t.co/pTGT1lPOmB— Sean Davis (@seanmdav) May 9, 2018

Two months before the 2016 election, George Papadopoulos received a strange request for a meeting in London, one of several the young Trump adviser would be offered — and he would accept — during the presidential campaign.
The meeting request, which has not been reported until now, came from Stefan Halper, a foreign policy expert and Cambridge professor with connections to the CIA and its British counterpart, MI6.
Halper’s September 2016 outreach to Papadopoulos wasn’t his only contact with Trump campaign members. The 73-year-old professor, a veteran of three Republican administrations, met with two other campaign advisers, The Daily Caller News Foundation learned.

Fitting with Papadopoulos’s theory of Halper’s outreach is the professor’s longstanding connections to both British and American intelligence agency officials. He also worked at the Department of State, Department of Defense, Department of Justice, and in three presidential administrations.
Halper is a close associate of Sir Richard Dearlove — the former MI6 chief.
In December 2016, Halper, Dearlove and espionage historian Peter Morland made international news when they announced they were leaving an organization called the Cambridge Intelligence Seminar due to concerns Russian operatives had infiltrated the group.

turning over Justice Department documents could risk lives by potentially exposing the source, a U.S. citizen ...

—

Risk lives? Oh B.S. the only risk is some corrupt Deep state operative being exposed. And they will be exposed.

[Meet the New Boss]

So perhaps what we have here, and Papadopoulos seems to suspect this, is a cabal of British ex-spooks trying to fix the American election in order to curry favor with future President Hillary, and Halper may have been part of it and a go-between between the Brit cabal and the US intel community.

This part played by the Brit cabal may be just one facet of a much larger set of intel ops against Trump planned out by the Obama admin, other parts of which included the unmasking and the FISA warrant.

Schiff is going to be briefed too. He’s so damned dumb that he makes Rosie O’Donnell sound like a genius. Plus he can’t be trusted with a turd.

[Starboard]

We are starting to probe into the very epicenter of the Swamp and we’re getting ever so closer to exposing the roots of the evil cabal that is working to undermine our president and our democracy. I think some big revelations will be forthcoming very soon.

[heights]

“What letter says the White House was involved and went along with non-compliance. WTH? Why would the President not want to comply?”

Honestly, I think Trump does what Kelly wants.

[laplata]

To a certain extent, I think so, too.

[yadent]

The probable source——Stefan Halper.

[volunbeer]

They should give Schiff the wrong name as a leaking trap - you know he will not be able to contain himself. It is what he does....
