“That’s our story, and we’re sticking to it.” It’s hard to believe that the Russiagate plotters are so stupid, but the declassified documents tumbling out of Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard’s files show that, while they had a lot of power and managed to hide their nefarious activities for almost a decade, President Barack Obama’s henchmen were none too bright. The latest tranche of declassified emails has Obama’s DNI, James Clapper, telling then-Director of the National Security Agency Mike Rogers essentially to shut up and put his name to the intelligence community assessment (ICA) that Clapper and then-CIA Director...

DNI Clapper to NSA Director Rogers: “That’s OUR story, and we’re stickin’ to it” Stunning admission that manufacturing intelligence is a “team sport” requiring “compromise on our ‘normal modalities’” WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Director of National Intelligence (DNI) Tulsi Gabbard declassified a Top Secret email from then-DNI James Clapper exposing his efforts to suppress concerns raised by then-National Security Agency (NSA) Director Mike Rogers regarding the politicized January 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) that President Obama ordered. On December 22, 2016, Rogers wrote an email to Clapper, then-FBI Director James Comey, and then CIA Director John Brennan expressing serious concerns...

During a recent episode of The Benny Show, host Benny Johnson and guest Mike Benz discussed allegations that former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and former CIA Director John Brennan engaged in a criminal conspiracy to defraud the American public and intelligence community. Johnson opened the discussion by referencing a recent post from Benz. “You have a post up saying Hillary Clinton is absolutely guilty of a criminal conspiracy to defraud the American taxpayers and intel community and so on. How would that prosecution go? Is that like too much of a pipe dream to even dream to like even...

Newly released FBI documents paint a damning picture of James Comey’s role in a coordinated intelligence operation against Donald Trump, an effort we know that Barack Obama ordered and that John Brennan, James Clapper, and a network of loyal operatives carried out.

James Clapper had admitted to lawyering up ever since Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard began declassifying and releasing documents that have exposed the Russian collusion hoax to its core. We knew the prime suspects and suspected their motives. Still, now we have the documents to corroborate the claims, which the liberal media has laughably and understandably avoided—they would have to admit guilt and complicity in this seditious conspiracy. Clapper, who was DNI under Obama, was reportedly not sold on the Steele dossier, believing it to be hot garbage, but included it in the 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment since it...

Newly declassified emails from December 22, 2016 show former DNI James Clapper pushed to “compromise” normal procedures to rush the 2017 ICA report on the Russia hoax. It was recently reported that 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 newly declassified emails revealed Clapper directed officials to compromise normal procedures despite pushback from then-NSA Director Mike Rogers. DNI Tulsi Gabbard declassified the emails and made them public on Wednesday. The email was sent from Mike Rogers to John Brennan,...

In a 1954 movie about the Dutch resistance during World War II, its fighters took pride in their leader’s courage as he taunted the Germans during nighttime attacks. Brazenly wearing an easily visible white scarf, he was fearless in challenging the enemy to shoot at him. But it was only after the resistance had suffered numerous mission setbacks that a terrible reality came to light. Their leader, known as “The Scarf”, wore the garment, not to antagonize the enemy but to let them know where exactly he was on the battlefield so that, as a German collaborator, he would not...

Adam Schiff has always had that smug “I know something you don’t know” smirk. Turns out what he allegedly knew was how to weaponize classified information for political gain—and then act shocked anyone would call it illegal. This week, a Democratic whistleblower—someone who worked in Schiff’s own House orbit for more than a decade—told the FBI that Schiff personally approved leaking classified material in order to smear Donald Trump. Not a rumor. Not a guess. Not an “I heard it from a guy.” The whistleblower alleges Schiff gave the order in a general staff meeting. Translation: he wanted an audience...

From January to May 2017, James Comey moved from covert scheming to open warfare against the incoming president — misleading Congress, trapping Michael Flynn, renewing surveillance on Trump, and leaking to spark the Mueller probe. Thus far, James Comey’s activities have been largely confined to his duties, however corrupt, within the FBI, or inward-looking. From January 2017 onward, his activities become dramatically darker, arguably illegal, and more forward-looking. On January 5, 2017, a bit more than two weeks before Inauguration, Obama met with Biden, James Comey, John Brennan, James Clapper, Susan Rice, and Assistant Attorney General Sally Yates in the...

The Gateway Pundit’s Jim Hoft interviewed Vice President J.D. Vance last week in Washington DC. The video was first aired at the “VINDICATION” Conference on Saturday in Las Vegas. ** We encourage you to watch the entire video here. VIDEO AT LINK.................. During the interview, VP Vance dropped this bomb – there are currently active investigations going on that we won’t know about until the investigation is complete! The Trump administration has secret investigations going on! That ought to scare the hell out of the the radical left! Vice President Vance: If you violated the law, if you broke the...

Renowned attorney Larry Klayman says the coming indictments of the Deep State traitors who tried to frame President Trump as a Russian spy in his first term are all in serious trouble. Director of National Intelligence (DNI) Tulsi Gabbard charges that Obama Administration officials politicized intelligence and laid the groundwork for a “years-long coup” against President Donald Trump after he won the 2016 election. Gabbard first uncovered a mountain of documents implicating many in the so-called Deep State. Gabbard claimed in a post on X that former President Barack Obama and key members of his national security team, including then-CIA...

The most intriguing part of the storm surrounding Barack Obama’s involvement in the effort to remove Donald J. Trump from office is that some people still refuse to believe the allegations. There are certain Americans who continue to deny any claims concerning Barack Obama’s negative impact on the country. Perhaps it’s that grin and laid back attitude. Or perhaps it’s his rhetorical skill set or his ability to croon Al Green tunes, or maybe it is just his knack for evoking racial remorse that causes half the nation to make excuses for Barack Obama’s troubling track record. Whatever the reason,...

When intelligence czar Tulsi Gabbard released her report last month accusing major players in the Obama administration of fabricating the Russia collusion hoax used to tarnish Donald Trump during the 2016 presidential campaign and beyond, some of us were not surprised. Nor were we surprised that the mainstream media has either ignored the story or tried to discredit it. We are very familiar with that playbook, having seen major media outlets use it to perfection when 51 intelligence officials signed a letter falsely claiming that Hunter Biden’s incriminating laptop had “all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation.” That...

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...
