The latest revelations show Team Obama invented the whole RussiaGate scandal
New York Post ^ | October 10, 2020 | Post Editorial Board

Posted on 10/11/2020 5:27:18 AM PDT by karpov

In mid-2016, the FBI got word that Russian intelligence believed Hillary Clinton’s campaign was planning to frame Donald Trump as colluding with Russia’s Vladimir Putin to hack her computers. Yet somehow, the crack agents never connected the dots when handed the Steele “dossier” commissioned and paid for by the Clinton campaign that claimed Trump was colluding with Putin.

Instead, the Justice Department used that dossier as a pretext to spy on at least Trump aide Carter Page as it investigated the clearly spurious charges. Justice also distorted the facts about Page’s past relations with the CIA to suggest he had a history of working with Russian agents when his actual record involved turning them in. Meanwhile, it buried the fact that Steele’s main source was himself a suspected Russian agent.

Nor did it connect the dots to another “Russiagate” lead, the third-hand rumors passed along by a Clinton-allied diplomat that supposedly implicated another Trump aide, George Papadopoulos.

The news of the 2016 intel comes from Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe’s gradual release of Russiagate records — which show that the true scandal was the investigation itself.

Maybe the Russian analysis was mistaken. But the info should have prompted far greater skepticism on all the Clinton-connected “dirt” on Trump, none of which ever panned out, despite years of investigation.

From Justice to the CIA, the Obama administration politicized a host of nonpartisan institutions to stain the Trump campaign and then sabotage the Trump administration. And, with selective leaks to major media, the plotters managed to convince much of the country.

The info was credible on its face: US intelligence “obtained insight” into the Russian analysis using highly classified methods (which are redacted in the now-public documents).

At some point, the general public is going to have to wind this back. Team Obama/Hillary really, really, really didn’t want Trump to be president. What’s why they pushed the coup.

Why was that so important?

Because of all of their previous corruption — uranium to Russia, Benghazi, Iran deal, the birth certificate (it’s fake). Heck, take it back to Whitewater or Vince Foster.

Russia, Russia, Russia is a big deal. But the fact that they were trying to hide so many other things (which the media has been ignoring for decades) is so much bigger.

Once Donald Trump became President this attempted coup became an act of treason. Those involved in the Traitorobama administration, including down deep into the FBI, CIA, DHS, State Department, and the Judicial Branch need to be brought to justice in trials, convictions, and sentencing, which should be carried out in public.

this should have dominated all media all week.

the Mueller/or anyone else investigation should have been into Clinton/DNC/Deep State criminal behaviour against the Trump campaign.

how was The President made to endure this cr*p for 3 years...and it continues?

Why get into her web? There would be no satisfactory outcome....no victory. The best we should do is exactly what we’re doing...advertise her devious behavior. She’s of the same breed as Pelosi....except Pelosi is nutsier.

One can rest assured that the FBI crack investigators knew exactly what was going on. Those guys are idiots. And, oddly, no weapon formed against our President has prospered. Prayers for our leaders are important.

The Clinton Foundation,
Hillary’s State Dept pay-to-play, Clintons’ Haiti cheap labor+Bill Gates OS+China assembly of cheap tablets for global child indoctrination,

On and on...

Team Clinton/Obama, not just Obama, though Obama and crew had the power at the time to feloniously and treasonously misuse the government apparatus under their control, which they did.

The problem is revealing and criminally investigating such in the last three weeks of the election cycle looks politically motivated on the part of Team Trump. This should have been dealt with years ago.

I hope they can at least punish the Mueller team. They kept this farce going for two years during Trump’s term.

Of course, this served Obama’s and Clinton’s purposes, because Trump could not get rid of Deep State people, or make public the info that would clear him, because of potential charges of obstruction of justice.

YES, YES, YES!

When did you 1st realize? For me...It was William Jefferson & Hillaryous Rotten CRIMINAL...The Greatest Crime Couple in the history of this fabulous republic. I guess one could trace it back further.

SOLUTION:

LOCKDOWN / LOCKOUT

We the people...need to consider locking them down and locking them out of government POWER / CONTROL...in order to form a more perfect union.

The task at hand...Joe Biden & Kamala Harris...and all ‘rats. The fish rots at the head. The puppets stink.
