Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard accused former Obama DNI James Clapper of being a serial political manipulator, exposing that the Russia Collusion Hoax wasn’t his first rodeo in deception. Gabbard unloaded on disgraced former DNI James Clapper during her appearance on the Pod Force One podcast with Miranda Devine of the New York Post. Gabbard is accusing the longtime Deep State operator of not one, but TWO of the most catastrophic intelligence failures in modern American history, the phony Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD) narrative that dragged the U.S. into a forever war in Iraq, AND the sham “Russia...

Curiously, Brennan left no way for future investigators to confirm or deny its existence.In June 2017, well on their way to a Pulitzer for national reporting, the stenographers at the Washington Post published a lengthy, breathless article about an extraordinary message delivered to the White House in early August 2016. According to the Post, CIA Director John Brennan had sent an “intelligence bombshell” directly to President Barack Obama, an “eyes only” report. So sensitive was the report that Brennan kept it out of the President’s Daily Brief and insisted it “be returned immediately after it was read.” The report was...

‘John Brennan and James Clapper are known liars and are digging themselves into an even deeper hole,’ White House spokesman Davis Ingle told The Federalist.There is a lot of talk about whether former Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) Director John Brennan and former Director of National Intelligence (DNI) James Clapper are protected by a statute of limitations in their roles in fabricating the Russia hoax.But, as current CIA director John Ratcliffe pointed out, “The statute of limitations doesn’t start to run until the last act in the furtherance of that conspiracy,” and the two Russia hoaxers just restarted the clock on...

That’s how the two-headed snake finally gets its comeuppance

We all knew, but there's nothing like concrete evidence. Hillary Clinton and her democrat ilk concocted the biggest election fraud conspiracy in the history of the United States. You know most of the players, but let's familiarize you with a couple of other names. Critical to this conspiracy were one Julianne Smith and Leonard Benardo. Julianne Smith is the alleged creator of the Russian collusion scheme. She served as the head of Hillary Clinton’s Europe team during the 2016 presidential campaign. Leonard Benardo is a senior vice president at the Open Society Foundations, a George Soros funded organization. In July...

For all of their supposed concern about ‘misrepresentations and disinformation,’ Clapper and Brennan are some of their biggest perpetrators.After declassified documents further exposed their roles in fomenting the baseless Trump-Russia collusion hoax, former CIA Director John Brennan and former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper are out with a new op-ed effectively trying to tell the public, “Don’t believe your lying eyes.”Published by The New York Times — a known co-conspirator in the hoax — the rambling screed from the former Obama intel chiefs represents a pathetic attempt to dismiss findings in recently disclosed records released by Director of National...

Edits to articles under lock are limited to a specific, controlled group of Wikipedia users. Wikipedia has long established itself as a website controlled by a coalition of partisan hacks. The latest example of the online encyclopedia’s attempt to literally rewrite the narrative appears on its article titled “Steele Dossier.” Five paragraphs into Wikipedia’s detailed description of the document that fueled the Russia collusion hoax, the article claims that British spy Christopher Steele’s manufactured evidence of collusion between the Trump campaign and Moscow “did not play any role in the January 6, 2017 intelligence community assessment of the Russian actions...

‘You need to TRUST ME on this,’ Clapper’s crony told the analyst, saying he ‘would need to demonstrate [his] ability to “outgrow”’ the refusal to sign off on assessments he did not concur with. A crony of then-Director of National Intelligence (DNI) James Clapper threatened to withhold a promotion from a senior intelligence official unless he concurred in the fake Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) on Russia’s meddling in the 2016 election, notes obtained exclusively by The Federalist show. The notes made public for the first time today recount a conversation the top analyst in the Office of the Director of...

A former National Intelligence Officer for Cyber under President Trump and Joe Biden has come forward with explosive allegations: the CIA and Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) deliberately buried evidence of Chinese Communist Party (CCP) interference in the 2020 presidential election—and fired him when he refused to play along. The whistleblower’s damning post came in response to General Mike Flynn’s tweet Monday questioning why foreign election interference by the CCP wasn’t exposed back in 2020: “So there was foreign interference by the CCP in the 2020 presidential election. Who was running the USIC at that time and...

The Russia-Russia-Russia co-conspirators are on television and in print telling us that ODNI Gabbard’s document releases are “out of context” and that we poor plebes just can’t understand the big picture. Oh. Okay. Keep talking, fellas. ... Interviews with more than half a dozen people who worked in Obama’s White House or on his campaigns reveal] they’re grappling with how to contain the unprecedented accusations National Intelligence Director Tulsi Gabbard has leveled, ... The battle now is to play this even to make sure that thoughts don’t start to creep into more mainstream” audiences, a former Obama administration official said....

A new organization aspires to help whistleblowers not only with free legal advice, but also with media coaching, therapy to address stress, and rent and mortgage payments if they get fired. The group, Whistleblower Aid, debuted Monday with an ad blitz plastering D.C. Metro trains and with mobile billboards circling the White House, along with the CIA and NSA headquarters. With more than $100,000 raised and ambitious plans to reach $1 million, the effort comes amid a year of high-profile leaks from within the Trump administration.

President Trump should have purged every single Obama appointee down to the city dog catcher. It is nothing short of astonishing that not one FBI agent came forward and spoke out against this treasonous plot. These agencies are irretrievably broken. …this entire operation was a deliberate and direct attack on the foundation of American governance. As for Barack Hussein Obama, he should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law and hounded like our great President has been hounded for the past four years. Obama, Biden Oval Office Meeting On January 5 Was Key To Entire Anti-Trump Operation...

Law professor Jonathan Turley does not mince words as to which former Obama official is most at-risk of being charged for their role in the Russian collusion hoax. The George Washington University Law School faculty member described ex-CIA Director John Brennan as being the “30-point buck out in the open” regarding potential charges stemming from the trove of disclosures about who orchestrated this operation. The head honcho, Barack Obama, has already been named in a criminal referral to the Department of Justice. The former president ordered a new intelligence report on Russian collusion after the IC’s initial assessment didn’t support...

Over several days, Director of National Intelligence (DNI) Tulsi Gabbard has declassified and published government documents that she says "verify that the alleged Russia-Trump collusion during the 2016 election was a hoax concocted by Democrats to undermine both the Trump campaign and the Trump Administration. Assessments by the intelligence community and forwarded to President Obama found no evidence of collusion between the Russians and Trump. Yet, President Obama dismissed this finding and insisted that a collusion meme be pursued. This was used to justify unwarranted surveillance of American citizens and a media campaign to cast suspicion on Trump." Former President...

Former DNI James Clapper Says He Has Concerns That He'll Be Prosecuted for His Role in the Russia Collusion Hoax

What one whistleblower’s dissent reveals about the Russia hoax. When senior Obama officials demanded a new Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) in December 2016—one month after Election Day—they were aware that dissenting voices existed within the intelligence community (IC), as they sought to suppress them. One such voice came from a senior ODNI (Office of the Director of National Intelligence) analyst who spearheaded the September 12, 2016, ICA on cyber threats. His refusal to bend the facts rattled the intelligence apparatus. His voice had to be silenced. At the time, the Intelligence Community’s (IC) consensus was clear: foreign adversaries did not...

CIA Director John Ratcliffe announced Wednesday that a new CIA report reveals former FBI Director James Comey, CIA Director John Brennan, and DNI James Clapper worked together to purposely corrupt the Trump-Russia investigation in 2016 before Trump entered office.The three corrupt Obama officials even included the Steele Dossier in their quest to “screw Trump” knowing at the time that the Steele Dossier was complete rubbish.For the next three years Democrats and deep state operatives used these documents in their attempt to impeach Trump and run a coup on the White

A bombshell new CIA review of the Obama administration’s spy agencies assessment that Russia interfered in the 2016 presidential election to help Donald Trump was deliberately corrupted by then-CIA Director John Brennan, FBI Director James Comey, and Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, who were “excessively involved” in its drafting, and rushed its completion in a “chaotic,” “atypical” and “markedly unconventional” process which raised questions of a “potential political motive.” Further, Brennan’s decision to include the discredited Steele Dossier, against the objections of the CIA’s most senior Russia experts, “undermined the credibility” of the assessment. The “Tradecraft Review of the...

The American public is still learning more about the Biden regime’s sinister nature and how it felt about its political opponents. On Friday, DNI Director Tulsi Gabbard declassified documents that revealed that Americans who opposed the draconian and cruel COVID mandates were declared “Domestic Violent Extremists.” Michael Shellenberger’s Public and Catherine Herridge Reports first obtained the newly declassified records. Former FBI agent Steve Friend explained to Public that the designation created an “articulable purpose” for FBI or other government agents to open an “assessment” of individuals, which is often the first step toward a formal investigation. In other words, COVID...
