She's a lawyer sailing as close to incitement as she can. Trump should give the line a tug and yank her up for it.

haha..... you gotta laff...

Heya Norman... incitement or indictment? :idea: Both, I think. :)
I kept that alleged "outburst" from Hillary for future reference back around mid-October, this was one of the sources... may even still be there...

Hillary’s Massive Meltdown “If that F – – – ing Bastard Wins, We All Hang from Nooses!

(Before It's News)

Published on Oct 18, 2016

Hillary is afraid of the gallows if Trump wins. She was interviewed by Matt Lauer and went off in a tirade of cursing. Hillary said: "If that f – – – ing bastard wins, we all hang from nooses!” Camera’s were not allowed to film the massive meltdown. But the staffers couldn’t believe how horrible she was.

Remember the Sept. 7 Commander-in-Chief Forum where Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton appeared separately but back-to-back for 30 minutes each?

According to an email forwarded to us late last night, which originated from a Comcast email address, the technical crew for NBC which produced the event is now speaking out about what took place moments after Clinton walked off the set – a massive profanity-laced tirade aimed at NBC’s host, Matt Lauer.

It turned out that Clinton had been fed all the questions for approval in advance of the forum.

But then, after the approval, Matt Lauer had had a change of heart and he started his questioning with an unapproved line concerning Clinton’s use of an illegal private server for her sometimes classified, work-related emails.

According to a Comcast official (the parent company of NBC Universal) who apparently was quoting those on the set:

“When Matt posed the one legitimate question about the FBI investigation concerning her homemade server and the unsecured emails, we could see she was beginning to boil.”

According to an NBC Associate Producer of the Forum, as soon as Clinton got off the set, she exploded.

“Hillary proceeded to pick up a full glass of water and throw it at the face of her assistant, and the screaming started.”

“She was in a full meltdown and no one on her staff dared speak with her – she went kind of manic and didn’t have any control over herself at that point.”

“How these people work with this woman is amazing to me. She really didn’t seem to care who heard any of it.”

“You really had to see this to believe it. She came apart – literally unglued; she is the most foul-mouthed woman I’ve ever heard … and that voice at screech level … awful!”

“She screamed she’d get that f…..ing Lauer fired for this.”

Referring to Donald Trump, Clinton said:

“If that f – – – ing bastard wins, we all hang from nooses! Lauer’s finished…and if I lose it’s all on your heads for screwing this up.”

So, Crooked Hillary fears the gallows, eh? Interesting.

Her dozen or more aides were visibly disturbed and tried to calm her down when she started shaking uncontrollably, as she screamed to get an executive at Comcast the parent company of NBC Universal, on the phone. Then, two rather large aides grabbed her and helped her walk to her car.

Matt Lauer was massively criticized for the rest of the week on air by the Clinton campaign and the rest of the MSM as having conducted:

“an unfair and partisan attack on Clinton.”

According to the email, calls were made to the New York Times, the Washington Post, Huffington Post and Twitter executives with orders to crush Matt Lauer.

One staffer on the Clinton campaign told the NBC staff that they all fear Clinton’s wrath and uncontrollable outbursts, and one described Hillary as “an egotistical psychopath.”

Since Hillary does not allow any staff to have cell phones when she is in their presence, no footage is available.

Interim DNC chairman Donna Brazile, the first black woman to hold the position, was singled out by Hillary during the rant. She screamed at Donna:

“I’m so sick of your face. You stare at the wall like a brain dead buffalo, while letting that f – – – ing Lauer get away with this. What are you good for, really? Get the f – – – to work janitoring this mess – do I make myself clear?”

A female NBC executive said that Donna Brazile looked at Mrs. Clinton and never flinched, which seemed to enrage Hillary all the more. The executive continued:

“It was the most awful and terrible…and racist display – such a profane meltdown I have ever witnessed from anyone, and I will never forget it.

“That woman should never see the inside of the oval office I can tell you that. She was unhinged and just continued to verbally abuse everyone – she was out of control.”

Why did Lauer ask his rogue question? According to sources close to Lauer, because:
“… the American people deserve an answer from the former Secretary of State.”

Wiretapping Word-Thinking (http://blog.dilbert.com/post/158110404781/wiretapping-word-thinking)

Guest Post by Scott Adams (http://blog.dilbert.com/post/158110404781/wiretapping-word-thinking)
The other day, President Trump declared that “President Obama was tapping my phones in October, just prior to Election!”

Then the world went nuts.

Former CIA Director James Clapper denied that Trump was wiretapped, saying,

“There was no such wiretap activity mounted against the president, the president-elect at the time, or as a candidate, or against his campaign...“
Yet we know General Flynn was in Trump Tower when his conversation with the Russian diplomat were recorded.

Does that mean Flynn was “wiretapped”?

No. But it might mean the person on the other end was. And we already know he was.

Does it mean Trump Tower was “wiretapped”?

No. But it might mean that the person on the other end was. And we already know he was.

And what does “wiretapping” even mean in a world in which all communications are recorded routinely? if the government records you routinely, and then it decides to look at some of those records, with a court order or without, has any “wiretapping” happened?

I don’t think so.

And what does it mean to say “Obama was tapping”? Does it mean he directly ordered it, or does he just have to wonder aloud how awesome it would be if someone did it? We expect presidents to have deniability about the spooky stuff because we watch television shows and that makes us smart.

I don’t have an opinion about what happened, or didn’t happen, with the wiretapping. But this story did make me laugh when I realized we find ourselves in the following fun situation:

1. President Trump is the world’s biggest liar (according to his foes).
And…

2. President Trump now has direct access to more national secrets than any other living human being.
And that means fun.

This wiretapping situation shows us how much fun it will be. Six months ago, if Trump made a hard-to-believe claim about something that is also hard to verify, the country would assume he was lying, incorrect, or negotiating. Now, if he says something hard-to-believe, such as the recent wiretapping claim, you have to wonder if the President knows something you don’t. Because he knows a lot of somethings you don’t.

If history is our guide, this odd situation, in which the most famous “liar” in the world also has access to the world’s best secrets, will be more entertaining than dangerous. We’re seeing that entertainment now. Trump can make any claim about hard-to-verify situations and we’ll all have to wonder if he knows something we don’t.

I feel sorry for the people watching the other movie – the one in which President Trump is essentially Hitler. In my movie, he’s having a bumpy transition ride but generally doing the people’s work. My movie is more of a comedy. And you could not write a better comedy than one in which the biggest “liar” in the world is in charge of the biggest secrets in the world.

Mmm... popcorn....

About North Korea

In other news, watch President Trump force China to put the clamps on North Korea’s missile program by making it clear we’ll handle it for them if they can’t take care of their own backyard. If the United States has to take care of China’s problem for them, it sure would be embarrassing for China. And persuasive.

I base my North Korea prediction on the assumption that by now President Trump has burrowed so far into the brains of the Chinese leadership that he’s already got functional control, Master Persuader style. They just don’t realize it.

“The older I grow, the more I distrust the familiar doctrine
that age brings wisdom.” – H.L. Mencken (https://www.amazon.com/Vintage-Mencken-Fiercest-Literary-Iconoclast/dp/0679728953/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=06fbad83153676c2502e01c9a37070e4&creativeASIN=0679728953)

http://static.safehaven.com/authors/burningplatform/43864_a.jpg (https://www.theburningplatform.com/)

WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?

“The older I get the less I listen to what people say
and the more I look at what they do.”– Andrew Carnegie (https://www.amazon.com/Andrew-Carnegie-David-Nasaw/dp/0143112449/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=d580e5cd05bcb695e32f21b9dd48dc71&creativeASIN=0143112449)
I’m 53 years old. The older I get the less sure I am about things I was sure about when I was 25 years old. I believed stocks for the long run was an unquestioned truth. I believed our economy was based on free market capitalism. I believed stock prices were based upon profits and cash flows. I believed a home was a place to live – not an investment. I believed the Catholic Church was run by good men doing good things. I believed journalists and the media were watchdogs working on behalf of the public. I believed our military was protecting our interests. I believed politicians legislated on behalf of the people. I believed the main purpose of bankers was to loan money to businesses and consumers in order to support economic growth. Boy, was I dumbass.

My skeptical nature, reliance on data I’ve personally vetted, and judging our leaders based on what they have done versus what they say, has allowed me to escape the Matrix. I wasn’t truly awakened until I watched Bush, Cheney, Powell, the rest of the neo-con prevaricators and fake news mainstream media utilize propaganda to railroad Americans into a $6 trillion unnecessary war, resulting in 36,000 American casualties, the destruction of a country and the creation of thousands of new Muslim terrorists.

I’ve spent the last fourteen years pushing back against the establishment narrative, documenting the fake data published by government apparatchiks, and trying to open the eyes of as many people as possible to the propaganda utilized by the Deep State to keep the ignorant masses dazed, confused and distracted. The country is in deep trouble because what the majority believe regarding the economy, politics, religion, and culture just ain’t so.

“What gets us into trouble is not what we don’t know. It’s what we know for sure that just ain’t so.” – Mark Twain (https://www.amazon.com/Mark-Twain-Five-Novels/dp/1607103168/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=fe0302cf107e362008a45abf8e20fdd5&creativeASIN=1607103168)

Since the start of this year I’ve found myself in a mental funk. I’m tired of the lies. I’m tired of incessant media propaganda. I’m tired of politicians. I’m tired of economic experts. I’m tired of hucksters touting their “the end is near” tale to sell me something. I’m tired of faux mainstream media journalists and their whining about Trump being mean and threatening the First Amendment.

They don’t know jack about the First Amendment, as they work for one of the six media conglomerates whose job it is to produce fake news supporting whatever narrative keeps their Deep State benefactors in power. Regurgitating lines written for them by corporate propagandists is not journalism and has absolutely no relationship to the First Amendment. Over the last decade the only place to find some truth has been the alternative media thriving on the uncensored internet. That’s why the establishment wants to regulate the internet.

The fake news blitz by a Deep State, flailing about trying to retain their power and wealth, has reached frantic proportions. The left wingers, egged on by Obama and funded by Soros, hold increasingly inane protests with themes like: wear a vagina hat to support feminazis; hug an illegal immigrant; everyone I hate is a Nazi; and women take another day off and no one notices. The traitorous neo-con warmongers like McCain, Graham, and Kristol see their enormously profitable never ending global conflict agenda at risk. The military industrial complex needs enemies. The left wingers and neo-cons have joined forces to utilize the fake Russian election intervention propaganda in a last ditch desperate attempt to derail the Trump presidency before it starts.

The relentlessness, bitterness, and blatant disregard for the truth exhibited by Trump’s vast array of opponents have made TV virtually unwatchable. I’ve found myself mentally checking out. Why waste mental energy debating hacks, mental midgets and paid trolls for the establishment? After spending years obliterating fake government statistics on a daily basis, I find continuing to do so is just mental masturbation with no ultimate satisfaction. Confronting left wingers and neo-cons is like wresting with a pig, you both get dirty and the pig likes it.

I’ve always been an observer. I’ve been observing how certain both sides are regarding their positions on illegal immigration, Muslims, Russia, Obamacare, Supreme Court nominees, executive orders, jobs, taxes, climate change, school choice, oil pipelines the First Amendment, Second Amendment, the rule of law, and the Bill of Rights. I find it exhausting. We’re lost in a blizzard of lies. I’m not certain about anything. I will remain skeptical of everything uttered by all politicians, all government bureaucrats, all corporate executives, all central bankers, all media pundits, all religious leaders, all corporate paid journalists and especially Wall Street shysters.

“Moral certainty is always a sign of cultural inferiority. The more uncivilized the man, the surer he is that he knows precisely what is right and what is wrong. All human progress, even in morals, has been the work of men who have doubted the current moral values, not of men who have whooped them up and tried to enforce them. The truly civilized man is always skeptical and tolerant, in this field as in all others. His culture is based on “I am not too sure.” – H.L. Mencken (https://www.amazon.com/Vintage-Mencken-Fiercest-Literary-Iconoclast/dp/0679728953/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=06fbad83153676c2502e01c9a37070e4&creativeASIN=0679728953)

The dissonance between what I have been observing and what is being flogged by the establishment mouthpieces in the corporate mainstream media has never been greater. Some of my observations are anecdotal, others are based on real unadulterated truthful data, a few are based on simple common sense and the rest are based on my understanding of what happens during Fourth Turnings (https://www.amazon.com/Fourth-Turning-American-Prophecy-Rendezvous/dp/0767900464/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=e2e66670649b5d75ad46c79d0202bf99&creativeASIN=0767900464).

When you understand the cyclical nature of history you are not surprised when events lead to reactions among the masses which take the linear thinking status quo by complete surprise. The 2008 global financial implosion and the subsequent election of Donald J. Trump by the deplorable white silent majority completely blindsided the oblivious establishment, but were entirely predictable if you had studied previous Fourth Turnings (https://www.amazon.com/Fourth-Turning-American-Prophecy-Rendezvous/dp/0767900464/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=e2e66670649b5d75ad46c79d0202bf99&creativeASIN=0767900464) throughout history.

I’ve been making a horrific sixty mile round trip commute into Philly for the last ten years. The average daily commute has been about two hours, as the entire route has been under some sort of construction for the entire decade. A fantastic one way commute is forty five minutes. I regularly have ninety minute commutes, and I’ve experienced a few which breached the two hour mark. It became immediately evident to me something changed as this new year got under way. My morning and evening commute has been consistently in the forty-five minute range for the last two months. There are less cars and trucks on the road. The question is why?

This only happened once before over the last decade – during the 2008/2009 recession. In a shocking correlation (especially for brain dead tax and spend liberals), when there are less jobs, there are less drivers on the roads going to work. I tried to think of other reasonable explanations for why traffic appeared to be contracting so dramatically. But lo and behold, certain data can’t be easily manipulated by the government. Gasoline demand is plunging, with the year over year trend crashing to levels last experienced during the 2001 recession. Gasoline demand was higher during the 2008/2009 crisis. Demand was higher when oil was over $100 per barrel. Based on this crash in gasoline demand, Goldman Sachs issued a report saying we should be in a recession.

http://static.safehaven.com/authors/burningplatform/43864_b.png
Total miles driven are dramatically slowing down. It’s not because of electric cars or fuel efficiency, as the vast majority of the 17.5 million vehicles being hawked to the math challenged driving public (using low payment leases and six year 0% loans) are pickups, SUVs, or luxury sedans. The Fed induced and subprime debt fueled frenzy of vehicle sales (aka long – term rentals) has seen vehicle sales skyrocket from 10 million in 2010 to an all-time high above 17.5 million in 2016, while auto loan debt has soared from $700 billion to over $1.1 trillion during this same time frame. The truthfulness of the 17.5 million sales number may be in question, as dealer lots are stuffed with record levels of inventory. With a record number of cars in the hands of consumers, how could gasoline usage and miles driven crash?

http://static.safehaven.com/authors/burningplatform/43864_c.png
More questions emerge to those with critical thinking skills. If the unemployment rate is really 4.8%, how could 40% of the employable population (102 million) not be working? This explains the lack of cars on the road during my commute. Obama and his minions jabber about the tremendous jobs recovery during his reign of error. In 2007 there were 122 million full-time workers among a working age population of 233 million, or 52.3%. After Obama’s eight year economic “recovery”, there are 125 million full-time workers among a working age population of 254 million, or 49.2%.

We’ve added 3 million full-time jobs in the last 9 years, and the captured mainstream media touts this as a success story. The deceitfulness – it burns. When 125 million full-time workers, of which 22 million are non-producing government drones, have to support 102 million non-working Americans, most living on the dole, you have a financially unsustainable paradigm. Trump’s slogan should be Make Americans Get Off Their Fat Asses and Work Again.

The explanation for the plunge in gasoline demand and miles driven is quite simple if you haven’t drunk the mainstream media kool-aid about the fantastic economy, low unemployment, and soaring consumer confidence. Americans drive their vehicles to work, to shop, and to eat out. Truckers are the backbone of our just in time big box retail society. If Americans are driving less, there are less people with jobs, less spending at bricks and mortar retailers, and fewer people eating out.

If truckers are logging less miles, retailers are ordering less inventory, manufacturers are selling less widgets, and the economy is contracting. The entire economic improvement narrative is based on soft data about feelings from consumer confidence surveys and dozens of other easily manipulated surveys. Propagandists are experts at convincing clueless dolts it’s raining when their government is actually pissing down their backs.

Despite government reports about expanding retail sales and strong holiday sales, real info from real retailers tells the true story. Major retailers have announced 1,500 store closings in the first two months of 2017, including: JC Penney – 140 stores
Sears – 150 stores
Macy’s – 68 stores
HHGregg – 88 stores
The Limited – 250 stores
Abercrombie & Fitch – 60 stores
Wet Seal – 171 stores
CVS – 70 storesKohl’s, Target, Macy’s, Sears, and dozens of other retailers reported awful holiday sales. Wal-Mart was lauded for generating a 1% comparable store sales increase. There is virtually no store expansion by large retail chains. During the 2000 to 2007 period these chains were each opening hundreds of new stores per year. We are in the midst of a long term retail contraction which is just picking up steam.

The closure of these stores combined with rising interest rates are a toxic concoction for real estate mall developers. The Fed allowed them to extend and pretend for the last eight years. The jig is up. A wave of retail and mall bankruptcies is baked in the cake. The government reported retail sales growth is driven by Fed induced auto sales (leases and loans), home furnishing sales financed at 0% over five years, building materials stores offering 0% financing, Amazon and until recently restaurant and bar sales.

Since I don’t go into malls or many retail establishments, and rarely eat at chain restaurants, my observations of retail and restaurant traffic are based on how full their parking lots are at peak hours. When the economy was in bubble mode prior to 2008, mall parking lots were jammed and you had a ninety minute wait to get a seat at Outback or Olive Garden. Today, you can get a parking spot at a big box retailer near the front door on a Saturday afternoon.

Malls are ghost towns, with Space Available as the hot new location. Except for peak dinner time on a Friday or Saturday (if then) there are no longer long waits to get a table at one of the struggling chain restaurants. We reached peak retail and peak overpriced restaurants a few years ago. The downward spiral, due to demographics, declining real income, and over-saturation, is irreversible.

http://static.safehaven.com/authors/burningplatform/43864_d.png

As usual, with propaganda distributed by the government or industry organizations, they present a positive restaurant performance index based on false hope and delusional expectations. Restaurant chains like Applebees, Outback, Ruby Tuesday, Chilis, Buffalo Wild Wings and many other major chains have been reporting declining same restaurant sales. Industry comparable restaurant sales are lower than two years ago.

Outback’s parent company announced it will close more than four dozen locations of Outback Steakhouse, Bonefish Grill, Carrabba’s Italian Grill and Fleming’s Prime Steakhouse. Ruby Tuesday is closing 100 locations. Despite government reports showing strong restaurant sales over the last eight years, annual traffic to U.S. restaurants has been flat or up just 1% since 2009, when there was a 2% drop in the wake of the Fed created financial crisis.

The “increase” in sales was generated by price increases of 2% to 3% per year. Now these chains are paying the price for high prices, ****ty food, and poor service from their college graduate millennial staff. With higher taxes, soaring Obamacare costs, student loan and auto loan debt up to their eyeballs, and low paying service jobs as their career, even clueless millennials have gotten a clue – they don’t have the money to eat out four times per week.

Anyone with an ounce of common sense knows the majority of Americans have fallen further behind since 2009, with only the establishment and those leaching off the establishment profiting from the suffering of senior citizens and the former middle class. When real personal spending plummets at the highest rate since 2009, you just might be in the midst of a recession.

As consumer confidence surveys, ISM surveys and Fed surveys provide fake news about consumer and corporate feelings about a glorious future, the hard data tells the truth. How could households feel confident when real median household income fell by $558 in December and is down by $529 year over year? How could Obama and his lapdogs in the mainstream media pontificate about the record economic recovery when real median income is 2% lower than it was nine years ago?

How can anyone deny the average American household has been experiencing a depression since 2000, when real median household income is lower today than it was at the turn of the century? Do you think the lack of income growth over the last 17 years may have played a part in the deplorables electing Trump in November?

The corporate fake news media will continue to produce the false narrative as directed by their Deep State employers. The credibility of journalists can be summed up in two pithy sentences by Hunter S. Thompson.

“The press is a gang of cruel faggots. Journalism is not a profession or a trade. It is a cheap catch-all for ****offs and misfits—a false doorway to the backside of life, a filthy piss-ridden little hole nailed off by the building inspector, but just deep enough for a wino to curl up from the sidewalk and masturbate like a chimp in a zoo-cage.” – Hunter S. Thompson – Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas (https://www.amazon.com/Fear-Loathing-Las-Vegas-American/dp/0679785892/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=557d2d2bef9b8ba11861b423f7900816&creativeASIN=0679785892)

In Part Two (https://www.theburningplatform.com/2017/03/08/what-the-hell-is-going-on-part-two/) of this article I’ll show how the Deep State/establishment/ruling class/status quo have utilized their mastery of propaganda techniques to convince the masses inflation and debt are beneficial to their interests and why Trump’s election is the pushback by a citizenry who are beginning to awake and are mad as hell.

"I think that measuring with precision human activity on the climate is something very challenging to do and there's tremendous disagreement about the degree of impact, so no, I would not agree that it's a primary contributor to the global warming that we see."

Spygate: America's Political Police Vs. Donald J. Trump (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-03-08/spygate-americas-political-police-vs-donald-j-trump)

http://www.zerohedge.com/sites/default/files/imagecache/fp_thumb/images/user3303/imageroot/20170308_spies.jpg (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-03-08/spygate-americas-political-police-vs-donald-j-trump)

The campaign to frame up and discredit Trump and his associates is characteristic of how a police state routinely operates. A national security apparatus that vacuums up all our communications and stores them for later retrieval has been utilized by political operatives to go after their enemies – and not even the President of the United States is immune.

Via Justin Raimondo of AntiWar.com, (http://original.antiwar.com/justin/2017/03/07/spygate-americas-political-police-vs-donald-j-trump/)
Everyone is suddenly talking about the Deep State – the configuration of spy agencies, career bureaucrats, and overseas spooks whose murky omnipresence has been brought to light by President Trump’s contention that he was “wiretapped (https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/837989835818287106)” by his predecessor.

With his usual imprecision, Trump managed to confuse the issue by ascribing the surveillance to Barack Obama, and so naturally spokesmen for the former President had no trouble batting this charge away. But as a former Obama speechwriter put it (https://twitter.com/jonfavs/status/838086840515112960):

“I’d be careful about reporting that Obama said there was no wiretapping. Statement just said that neither he nor the [White House] ordered it.”

And then there’s the word “wiretapping”: this brings to mind the old-fashioned physical “bug” that our spooks used to plant on their target’s phone lines, installed in the dead of night. But that isn’t how it’s done anymore. As Edward Snowden revealed, the National Security Agency (NSA) scoops up everyone’s communications, and stores them in a database for later retrieval. Loosely-observed “rules” are supposed to make it hard (but not impossible) for the spooks to spy on American citizens, but the reality is that there are plenty of times when such information is scooped up “incidentally,” and in those cases the identities of those spied on must be redacted.

Except not anymore. As the New York Times reported (https://www.nytimes.com/2017/01/12/us/politics/nsa-gets-more-latitude-to-share-intercepted-communications.html?_r=0) on January 12:

“In its final days, the Obama administration has expanded the power of the National Security Agency to share globally intercepted personal communications with the government’s 16 other intelligence agencies before applying privacy protections.

“The new rules significantly relax longstanding limits on what the N.S.A. may do with the information gathered by its most powerful surveillance operations, which are largely unregulated by American wiretapping laws. These include collecting satellite transmissions, phone calls and emails that cross network switches abroad, and messages between people abroad that cross domestic network switches.

“The change means that far more officials will be searching through raw data…”
And it looks like Obama administration officials made good use of this loosening of the rules after Trump’s victory. As the Times reported (https://www.nytimes.com/2017/03/01/us/politics/obama-trump-russia-election-hacking.html?_r=0) on March 1, after Trump won they were combing through the unredacted raw data looking for evidence of Russian collusion with the Trump campaign:

“In the Obama administration’s last days, some White House officials scrambled to spread information about Russian efforts to undermine the presidential election – and about possible contacts between associates of President-elect Donald J. Trump and Russians – across the government.”
Their goal: “to leave a clear trail of intelligence for government investigators.” And they apparently didn’t wait for the investigators, as a stream of reportage about “intercepts” involving Trump associates, such as former National Security Council advisor Michael Flynn communicating with Russian officials, found its way onto the front pages of the nation’s newspapers. The source of this intelligence is the key to understanding what happened. The Times tells us:

“American allies, including the British and the Dutch, had provided information describing meetings in European cities between Russian officials – and others close to Russia’s president, Vladimir V. Putin – and associates of President-elect Trump, according to three former American officials who requested anonymity in discussing classified intelligence.

“Separately, American intelligence agencies had intercepted communications of Russian officials, some of them within the Kremlin, discussing contacts with Trump associates.”
Forget about looking for a FISA court application to spy on Trump & Co.: it wasn’t necessary. Such archaic remnants of a free society as a warrant were blithely bypassed: “Seventeen different government agencies shouldn’t be rooting through Americans’ emails with family members, friends and colleagues, all without ever obtaining a warrant,” warned American Civil Liberties Union lawyer Patrick Toomey at the time the NSA rules were thrown out.

But nobody was listening – including Trump and his supporters, who generally approve of government spying in the name of “national security.” And so the way was cleared for the anti-Trump coup plotters to do their dirty work. As the January 12 Times story reported:

“Under the new system, agencies will ask the N.S.A. for access to specific surveillance feeds, making the case that they contain information relevant and useful to their missions. The N.S.A. will grant requests it deems reasonable after considering factors like whether large amounts of Americans’ private information might be included and, if so, how damaging or embarrassing it would be if that information were ‘improperly used or disclosed.’”
All the leakers had to do was comb through the material gathered by the NSA and cherry-pick what looked incriminating – although, to be sure, if they had a smoking gun we would surely have known about it by now. But the lack of such was no obstacle to their goal, which was to give the #NeverTrump cause a banner around which to rally post-election – “The Russians did it!” – and create a dark cloud of suspicion over Trump’s presidency as being somehow illegitimate.

The new rules (https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/3283349-Raw-12333-surveillance-sharing-guidelines.html) on disseminating raw NSA intercepts went into effect on January 3, after then Attorney General Loretta Lynch signed on: the Director of National Intelligence James Clapper had previously signed on December 12. And if we look at the reportage coming out of the media, that’s when the stories detailing the content of intercepts and other intelligence started hitting the front pages.

It’s difficult to see how anyone could deny that the Surveillance State did a number on Trump. Two days after the loosened NSA rules went into effect, the Washington Post ran a story headlined “US Intercepts Capture Senior Russian Officials Celebrating Trump Win (https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/national-security/us-intercepts-capture-senior-russian-officials-celebrating-trump-win/2017/01/05/d7099406-d355-11e6-9cb0-54ab630851e8_story.html?utm_term=.f49fec5d4804)”:

“Senior officials in the Russian government celebrated Donald Trump’s victory over Hillary Clinton as a geopolitical win for Moscow, according to U.S. officials who said that American intelligence agencies intercepted communications in the aftermath of the election in which Russian officials congratulated themselves on the outcome.”
Citing "intercepted messages and conversations among senior Russian officials in Putin’s inner circle" a January 6 Reuters report (http://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-russia-cyber-celebrate-idUSKBN14P2NI) informed us that:

“The CIA has identified Russian officials who fed material hacked from the Democratic National Committee and party leaders to WikiLeaks at the direction of Russian President Vladimir Putin through third parties, according to a new US intelligence report, senior US officials said on Thursday.”
On January 20, the day Trump took power, the New York Times ran a front page story (https://twitter.com/briandordevic/status/838803139763572736) headlined: “Wiretapped Data Used in Inquiry of Trump Aides”:

“American law enforcement and intelligence agencies are examining intercepted communications and financial transactions as part of a broad investigation into possible links between Russian officials and associates of President-elect Donald J. Trump, including his former campaign chairman Paul Manafort, current and former senior American officials said.”
On February 9, the New York Times reported (https://www.nytimes.com/2017/02/09/us/flynn-is-said-to-have-talked-to-russians-about-sanctions-before-trump-took-office.html?_r=0) on the conversations between Flynn and the Russian ambassador to the United States, Sergey Kisylak:

“Weeks before President Trump’s inauguration, his national security adviser, Michael T. Flynn, discussed American sanctions against Russia, as well as areas of possible cooperation, with that country’s ambassador to the United States, according to current and former American officials.”
The story cites the transcript of the conversation. How did the Times reporters get hold of this information? They cite “Federal officials who have read the transcript of the call.” How did those officials get hold of the transcript of a private conversation of an American citizen who was not yet a government employee? The new rules governing raw unredacted NSA intercepts made possible an interagency effort to disseminate and examine intercepts and other material, and there was a concerted effort to uncover anything that could be used against Trump.

On January 19, the McClatchy news service reported (http://www.mcclatchydc.com/news/politics-government/article127231799.html) on the “get Trump” campaign launched by US law enforcement agencies:

“The FBI and five other law enforcement and intelligence agencies have collaborated for months in an investigation into Russian attempts to influence the November election, including whether money from the Kremlin covertly aided President-elect Donald Trump, two people familiar with the matter said.

“The agencies involved in the inquiry are the FBI, the CIA, the National Security Agency, the Justice Department, the Treasury Department’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network and representatives of the director of national intelligence, the sources said.”
To be clear: during the election, six law enforcement agencies were engaged in a systematic attempt to undermine the Trump campaign, at a certain point utilizing unredacted raw intelligence collected by the NSA and other agencies, all the while leaking like a sieve to their media camarilla.

And this campaign was international in scope, as pro-Clinton nutbag Kurt Eichenwald (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LANAXkHYAiA) reported on February 15 in a story headlined: “US Allies Conduct Intelligence Operation Against Trump Staff, Intercepted Communications (http://www.newsweek.com/allies-intercept-russia-trump-adviser-communications-557283)”:

“The Western European intelligence operations began in August, after the British government obtained information that people acting on behalf of Russia were in contact with members of the Trump campaign. Those details from the British were widely shared among the NATO allies in Europe. The Baltic nation has been gathering intelligence for at least that long, and has conducted surveillance of executives from the Trump Organization who were traveling in Europe.”
In a panic that their free ride would be over if Trump’s “America First” agenda was implemented, our European NATO “allies” worked in close coordination with the Washington cabal to subvert the US election process far more effectively than any Russian effort. And they didn’t need a FISA court to approve their spying on the Trump campaign.

Which brings up an important issue: there has been much ado about reports of a FISA court application, supposedly denied, and one that was narrowed and allegedly approved: the BBC (http://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-38589427), the Guardian (https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2017/jan/10/fbi-chief-given-dossier-by-john-mccain-alleging-secret-trump-russia-contacts), and the lunatic (https://twitter.com/louisemensch/status/835153463248105472?lang=en) “reporter” Louise Mensch (https://heatst.com/world/exclusive-fbi-granted-fisa-warrant-covering-trump-camps-ties-to-russia/) have all maintained that this was the case. Yet, as I have shown above, no such approval by the FISA court was ever required, although it would have a) made it much easier for the coup plotters to do their dirty work, and b) would have shielded them from any legal consequences. However, the fly in the ointment is that this would leave a paper trail that, once elected, Trump could simply declassify.

So the FISA issue is, I believe, a false trail, a distraction away from what really happened. They didn’t need the FISA court. They didn’t need a warrant. They simply opened a “back door (https://www.brennancenter.org/blog/fbis-warrantless-surveillance-back-door-just-opened-little-wider)” that, contrary to reports, had not been closed by the “USA Freedom Act,” and – unleashed by the relaxation of the rules previously governing dissemination of NSA intercepts – simply went through it (http://hotair.com/headlines/archives/2017/03/06/the-back-door-how-trump-clapper-and-comey-could-all-be-right-about-wiretapping-trump-tower/).

Finally, we have another interesting “coincidence”: the brouhaha over NSA chief Admiral Michael Rogers, who top Obama administration officials wanted to fire (http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/2016/11/19/top-obama-administration-officials-reportedly-want-nsa-chief-michael-rogers-out/94137952/), which started because Rogers traveled to Trump Tower to meet with the President-elect. The ostensible reasons given – various breaches of security – were odd: after all, why fire him just as Obama was leaving office? In short, the intensity of the campaign to fire him was out of all proportion to his alleged misdeeds. Aside from the security issue, the very fact that he was visiting Trump was supposedly a major issue: we were told “There’s only one President at a time.” But why shouldn’t someone who might be asked to continue to serve meet with the President-elect?

In retrospect, the visit – and the disproportionate anger it provoked from the Obama crowd – makes perfect sense. If the NSA was being used as a source for the campaign to delegitimize Trump, and build a case that the President-elect is a “Russian puppet,” as Hillary Clinton put it, then Rogers’ may have been trying to distance himself from the effort: “It wasn’t me, Boss!”

The campaign to frame up and discredit Trump and his associates is characteristic of how a police state routinely operates. A national security apparatus that vacuums up (https://wikileaks.org/ciav7p1/) all our communications and stores them for later retrieval has been utilized by political operatives to go after their enemies – and not even the President of the United States is immune. This is something that one might expect to occur in, say, Turkey, or China: that it is happening here, to the cheers of much of the media and the Democratic party, is beyond frightening.

The irony is that the existence of this dangerous apparatus – which civil libertarians have warned could and probably would be used for political purposes – has been hailed by Trump and his team (https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2016/12/trump-and-his-advisors-surveillance-encryption-cybersecurity) as a necessary and proper function of government. Indeed, Trump has called for the execution (http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2013/jul/2/donald-trump-edward-snowden-kill-traitor/) of the person who revealed the existence of this sinister engine of oppression – Edward Snowden. Absent Snowden’s revelations, we would still be in the dark as to the existence and vast scope of the NSA’s surveillance.

And now the monster Trump embraced in the name of “national security” has come back to bite him.

We hear all the time that what’s needed is an open and impartial “investigation” of Trump’s alleged “ties” to Russia. This is dangerous nonsense: does every wild-eyed accusation from embittered losers deserve a congressional committee armed with subpoena power bent on conducting an inquisition? Certainly not.

What must be investigated is the incubation of a clandestine political police force inside the national security apparatus, one that has been unleashed against Trump – and could be deployed against anyone.

This isn’t about Donald Trump. It’s about preserving what’s left of our old republic. I don’t want to live in a country where anonymous spooks with access to my most personal information can collect it and release it to their friends in our despicable media – do you?

Trump Invades Syria (http://www.ronpaulinstitute.org/archives/peace-and-prosperity/2017/march/08/trump-invades-syria/)

Written by Daniel McAdams
Wednesday March 8, 2017

http://world.workercn.cn/html/files/2017-03/08/20170308081826684643835.jpg
US forces in Manbij, Syria. March 5, 2017.

Although the Syrian army, with its ally Russia, has made significant gains (http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/middle-east/isis-northern-syria-defeat-civil-war-new-phase-rebels-bashar-al-assad-regime-sdf-turkey-us-russia-a7610231.html) against ISIS over the past week or so, the Washington Post is reporting tonight that President Trump has for the first time sent regular US military personnel into that country in combat positions. This is an unprecedented escalation of US involvement in the Syrian war and it comes without Congressional authorization, without UN authorization, and without the authorization of the government of Syria. In short it is three ways illegal.

According to the Post, US Marines have departed their ships in the Mediterranean and have established an outpost on Syrian soil from where they will fire artillery toward the ISIS "headquarters" of Raqqa. The Post continues (https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/checkpoint/wp/2017/03/08/marines-have-arrived-in-syria-to-fire-artillery-in-the-fight-for-raqqa/?utm_term=.d57e8eb16539):
The Marines on the ground include part of an artillery battery that can fire powerful 155-millimeter shells from M777 Howitzers, two officials said, speaking on the condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the deployment. The expeditionary unit’s ground force, Battalion Landing Team 1st Battalion, 4th Marines, will man the guns and deliver fire support for U.S.-backed local forces who are preparing an assault on the city. Additional infantrymen from the unit are likely to provide security. On March 5th, RT ran footage (https://youtu.be/C2jUic1vMAU) of a US military convoy entering Syria near Manbij. The US mainstream media initially blacked out the story, but the Post today confirmed that the troops were from the Army’s 75th Ranger Regiment in Stryker vehicles.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w3osAJIUHGY
What is important to understand about this sudden escalation of US involvement is that if this "race to Raqqa" is won by the US military rather than by Syrian government forces, the chance that the US will hand the territory back to the Assad government is virtually nil. In other words, this is an operation far less about wiping ISIS out from eastern Syria and much more about the United States carving out eastern Syria as a permanent outpost from where it can, for example, continue the original neocon/Israeli/Saudi plan for "regime change" in Syria.

The United States is making a military bid for a very large chunk of sovereign Syrian territory. Something even Obama with his extraordinarily reckless Middle East policy would not dare to do.

How will the Russians react to this development? How will the Russians react if increased US military activity on the ground in Syria begins to threaten Russian military forces operating in Syria (with the consent of that country's legal government)? With President Trump's "get along with Russia" policy lying in the tatters of a Nikki Haley at the UN and a Fiona Hill (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/video/news/video-1422789/Fiona-Hill-talks-Russian-cyber-operations-Harvard.html) at NSC Staff, how differently might the Russians see US actions in Syria than they might have only a month or so ago?

Make no mistake: this is big news. And very bad news.

Wikileaks Reveals: CIA’s UMBRAGE Allows
Agency to Carry out ‘False Flag’ Cyber Attacks (http://www.globalresearch.ca/wikileaks-reveals-cias-umbrage-allows-agency-to-carry-out-false-flag-cyber-attacks/5578786)

Mint Press News 7 March 2017

https://i0.wp.com/www.telesurtv.net/__export/1459934284645/sites/telesur/img/multimedia/2016/04/06/wikileaks.jpg_1718483346.jpg

A new release of CIA documents by Wikileaks indicates that the intelligence agency has the means and the intent to mask the cyber-attacks it commits by making them seem as if they originated from a foreign power.

Earlier today, Wikileaks once again made headlines following its release of the “largest ever publication of U.S. Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) documents.” The massive release – just the first batch in a trove of documents code-named “Vault 7” by Wikileaks – details the CIA’s global covert hacking program and its arsenal of weaponized exploits.

While most coverage thus far has focused on the CIA’s ability to infiltrate and hack smartphones, smart TVs and several encrypted messaging applications, another crucial aspect of this latest leak has been skimmed over – one with potentially far-reaching geopolitical implications.

According to a Wikileaks press release, the 8,761 newly published files came from the CIA’s Center for Cyber Intelligence (CCI) in Langley, Virginia. The release says that the UMBRAGE group, a subdivision of the center’s Remote Development Branch (RDB), has been collecting and maintaining a “substantial library of attack techniques ‘stolen’ from malware produced in other states, including the Russian Federation.”

As Wikileaks notes, the UMBRAGE group and its related projects allow the CIA to misdirect the attribution of cyber attacks by “leaving behind the ‘fingerprints’ of the very groups that the attack techniques were stolen from.”

In other words, the CIA’s sophisticated hacking tools all have a “signature” marking them as originating from the agency. In order to avoid arousing suspicion as to the true extent of its covert cyber operations, the CIA has employed UMBRAGE’s techniques in order to create signatures that allow multiple attacks to be attributed to various entities – instead of the real point of origin at the CIA – while also increasing its total number of attack types.

Other parts of the release similarly focus on avoiding the attribution of cyberattacks or malware infestations to the CIA during forensic reviews of such attacks. In a document titled “Development Tradecraft DOs and DON’Ts,” hackers and code writers are warned “DO NOT leave data in a binary file that demonstrates CIA, U.S. [government] or its witting partner companies’ involvement in the creation or use of the binary/tool.” It then states that “attribution of binary/tool/etc. by an adversary can cause irreversible impacts to past, present and future U.S. [government] operations and equities.”

While a major motivating factor in the CIA’s use of UMBRAGE is to cover its tracks, events over the past few months suggest that UMBRAGE may have been used for other, more nefarious purposes. After the outcome of the 2016 U.S. presidential election shocked many within the U.S. political establishment and corporate-owned media, the CIA emerged claiming that Russia mounted a “covert intelligence operation” to help Donald Trump edge out his rival Hillary Clinton.

Prior to the election, Clinton’s campaign had also accused Russia of being behind the leak of John Podesta’s emails, as well as the emails of employees of the Democratic National Committee (DNC).

Last December, Director of National Intelligence James Clapper – a man known for lying under oath about NSA surveillance – briefed senators in a closed-door meeting where he described findings on Russian government “hacks and other interference” in the election.

Following the meeting, Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA), a ranking member of the House Intelligence Committee,remarked: “After many briefings by our intelligence community, it is clear to me that the Russians hacked our democratic institutions and sought to interfere in our elections and sow discord.”

Incidentally, the U.S. intelligence community’s assertions that Russia used cyber-attacks to interfere with the election overshadowed reports that the U.S. government had actually been responsible for several hacking attempts that targeted state election systems. For instance, the state of Georgia reported numerous hacking attempts on its election agencies’ networks, nearly all of which were traced back to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.

Now that the CIA has been shown to not only have the capability but also the express intention of replacing the “fingerprint” of cyber-attacks it conducts with those of another state actor, the CIA’s alleged evidence that Russia hacked the U.S. election – or anything else for that matter – is immediately suspect. There is no longer any way to determine if the CIA’s proof of Russian hacks on U.S. infrastructure is legitimate, as it could very well be a “false flag” attack.

Given that accusations of Russian government cyber-attacks also coincide with a historic low in diplomatic relations between Russia and the U.S., the CIA’s long history of using covert means to justify hostile actions against foreign powers – typically in the name of national security – once again seems to be in play.

Truth Is Rare and Hard to Find (http://www.paulcraigroberts.org/2017/01/03/can-trump-fix-the-economy-in-2017-paul-craig-roberts/)
— Paul Craig Roberts
March 11, 2017 | Categories: Articles & Columns
Recent developments show how important and necessary websites such as paulcraigroberts.org are. The latest Wikileaks release of CIA documents code-named Vault 7 reveal that the CIA has the capability and the intent to mask the cyber-attacks it commits by making them seem as if they originated from another source.

This capability destroys the concept of evidence. The CIA can carry out a cyber attack or steal information and leave a fingerprint, so to speak, of the country or person it wants blamed. If the CIA can leave the fingerprint of an innocent party, we must assume the CIA can also put secret documents or child pornography on a person’s computer. Because of the CIA’s capability, henceforth we cannot know if any evidence presented in any trial against any defendant is real of faked. http://www.globalresearch.ca/wikileaks-reveals-cias-umbrage-allows-agency-to-carry-out-false-flag-cyber-attacks/5578786 (http://www.globalresearch.ca/wikileaks-reveals-cias-umbrage-allows-agency-to-carry-out-false-flag-cyber-attacks/5578786) and
https://www.rt.com/news/380051-assange-malware-cia-fingerprints/ (https://www.rt.com/news/380051-assange-malware-cia-fingerprints/)

Maria Zakharova points out another reason that sites such as this one are crucial. The fake news promoted by CNN, the New York Times, Washington Post, MSNBC, and all the rest of the Western presstitutes has undermined the credibility of all traditional Western media, leaving only Internet sites that vary in commitment to truth from which the public can form an opinion. In a press conference, Zakharova said that the Western media is shameful, a form of vandalism. She asks if the Western media has yet hit bottom “or can they dive a little lower?” The US media is engaged in “a total disinformation campaign not only for their internal audience, but also for the global audience. . .

This is Orwell, 1984. Now we know who he wrote about when he wrote about Big Brother. Big Brother, in America, is now the media, which has stepped so far outside of professional ethics, as well as their own competency. They accuse and judge, based on entirely fabricated lies. . . That which is happening now is a global tragedy, the destruction of trust in the authority of media. What is going to happen in the future?” http://www.fort-russ.com/2017/03/big-brother-is-here-zakharova-warns-of.html (http://www.fort-russ.com/2017/03/big-brother-is-here-zakharova-warns-of.html)

The future of truth lies with websites, such as the one you are reading. This website has faithful donors. They are the people who pushed me out of retirement back into the fray. Many of them make automatic monthly donations. Others have joined them. But most of the people who use this site do not support it.

As we see President Trump collapse on his promise of normalized relations with Russia, we witness another president captured by the military/security complex.

For an individual website to go up against powerful forces controlling billions of dollars requires your support. If you are with me, I need your financial support.

If you have any doubts that the media are a propaganda agency for the ruling elite, note that when Julian Assange released the CIA documents given to WikiLeaks that show the CIA’s ability to blame its hacks on innocent parties, ABC presstitute Brian Ross was uninterested in the documents and attempted to discredit the WikiLeaks release with the question if Assange had ever been paid by the Russian government. Assange replied “no” but that it was a “pretty sad question” which tried to divert from the content of the released documents. “Quite interesting,” Assange said, “to see ABC taking that line.” https://www.rt.com/viral/380044-assange-denies-russian-funding-msm/ (https://www.rt.com/viral/380044-assange-denies-russian-funding-msm/)

In other words, when the CIA’s own documents are presented to the whores who comprise the Western media, the well-trained whores cast aspersion on the person who makes the documents public, not on the crimes of those that the documents reveal.

As I wrote some years ago, “Truth Is Imperiled.” You cannot acquire truth from the Western media, but you can get truth from this site. So support it.

Based on the above post...

Anyone who is accused of any crime where the evidence is all and only based on what is obtained from someone's computer... a good lawyer should be able to argue the point that the evidence could very well have been planted and done so by one or more agencies outside of law enforcement who possess the ability to do such "false planting of evidence." In addition, it could be done so via a cooperative relationship between law enforcement and one or more agencies outside of law enforcement who possess the ability to do such "false planting of evidence."

In addition the "evidence" could be planted by any third party that may wish to harm someone who then only has to tip off law enforcement... evidence planted stealthily, remotely and where any "fingerprints" can be manufactured to implicate anyone from the original target to anyone else and for any reason.

Ex-CBS reporter:
Government agency bugged my computer (http://nypost.com/2014/10/27/ex-cbs-reporter-government-related-entity-bugged-my-computer/)
Sharyl Attkisson The O'Reilly Factor

By Kyle Smith and Bruce Golding
October 27, 2014 | 7:36am

https://thenypost.files.wordpress.com/2014/10/sharyl-attkisson.jpg?w=600

A former CBS News reporter who quit the network over claims it kills stories that put President Obama in a bad light (http://nypost.com/2014/10/25/former-cbs-reporter-explains-how-the-liberal-media-protects-obama/) says she was spied on by a “government-related entity” that planted classified documents on her computer.

In her new memoir, Sharyl Attkisson says a source who arranged to have her laptop checked for spyware in 2013 was “shocked” and “flabbergasted” at what the analysis revealed.

“This is outrageous. Worse than anything Nixon ever did. I wouldn’t have believed something like this could happen in the United States of America,” Attkisson quotes the source saying.

She speculates that the motive was to lay the groundwork for possible charges against her or her sources.

Attkisson says the source, who’s “connected to government three-letter agencies,” told her the computer was hacked into by “a sophisticated entity that used commercial, nonattributable spyware that’s proprietary to a government agency: either the CIA, FBI, the Defense Intelligence Agency or the National Security Agency.”

The breach was accomplished through an “otherwise innocuous e-mail” that Attkisson says she got in February 2012, then twice “redone” and “refreshed” through a satellite hookup and a Wi-Fi connection at a Ritz-Carlton hotel.

The spyware included programs that Attkisson says monitored her every keystroke and gave the snoops access to all her e-mails and the passwords to her financial accounts.

“The intruders discovered my Skype account handle, stole the password, activated the audio, and made heavy use of it, presumably as a listening tool,” she wrote in “Stonewalled: My Fight for Truth Against the Forces of Obstruction, Intimidation, and Harassment in Obama’s Washington.”

Attkisson says her source — identified only as “Number One” — told her the spying was most likely not court-authorized because it went on far longer than most legal taps.

But the most shocking finding, she says, was the discovery of three classified documents that Number One told her were “buried deep in your operating system. In a place that, unless you’re a some kind of computer whiz specialist, you wouldn’t even know exists.”

“They probably planted them to be able to accuse you of having classified documents if they ever needed to do that at some point,” Number One added.

In her book, Attkisson says CBS lost interest in her coverage of the deadly attack on the US Embassy in Benghazi, Libya, and killed her stories of the federal “Fast and Furious” gun-running scandal.

Both CBS and the White House declined to comment.

Cross-posted on another thread (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?95893-Trump-The-Great-American-Reset&p=1139847&viewfull=1#post1139847)...

Here's something interesting from Steve Pieczenik's website regarding what's recently going on in Syria:

Keep in mind, Trump has previously said that he would be initially focusing on Domestic policy, thus trusting his military generals to do what they have more, supposedly, expertise in dealing with - the foreign situation.
It seems to me, that Steve is attempting to communicate a message to General Mattis & McMaster...
From his recent article (below)...

Steve Pieczenik:

I beseech both Generals James Mattis and HR McMaster to cease and desist this madness falsely entitled:

"training and assistance" ASAP!

You were placed in your respective positions by those who created and fought this Second American Revolution. We supported Trump and his team because we did not want any more of our brave men and women to end up in the mess that Clinton, Bush Jr, and Obama created. It’s time for you ex-generals to start thinking strategically. We have no political, economic, nor military reasons to be in any of those countries that we have been in for that past two decades. (Emphasis mine.)

Let me invoke the great plea of our great POTUS General Eisenhower:

“Under the clouds of war, it is humanity hanging on a cross of iron!”
Let me emphasize what another outstanding military strategist, Gen. Douglas Mac Arthur, repeatedly warned:

“It is fatal to enter a war without the will to win it.”

Stop these Useless Wars! Raqqa Syria! (http://stevepieczenik.com/stop-these-useless-wars-ray-syria/)
March 10, 2017 Dr. Steve R. Pieczenik, MD, PhD

http://sunsavunma.net/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/al-bab-sava%C5%9F%C4%B1.jpg

11th Marine Expeditionary Unit [Artillery Battery] Placed in Harm’s Way Fighting Against Islamic State in Raqqa, Syria!

[I]WTH? What’s the Strategy??
Answer: None

Once again, we are confronted by the unexplained implant of American soldiers in distant lands where we do not belong. Nothing has been more exasperating for me and other military veterans than the deployment of American soldiers in 770+ bases in over 220 different countries. On top of that expansive network of wasted money, citizens are presented with a military fait-accompli where our kids are deployed into combat zones which have absolutely no national security value to the USA.

Witness the major military defeats of past/present centuries: Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, Sudan, Somalia, Yemen, Libya, Syria… We have become a major player in minor conflagrations which have been fostered by our rapacious military/industrial complex. Our well-intentioned military elites have been consistently mistaken in formulating any winning strategies or effective tactics.

Hear the echoes of Vietnam redux: NYTimes, March 9, 2017:

“U.S. Sending 400 More Troops to Syria” - by Michael R. Gordon. “We are preparing logistical and fire support to enable a successful assault on Raqqa…”

***
“… they will provide artillery support, training, and protection for improvised explosives..”

***
“..The USA has already carrying out airstrikes [more than 30 per day]in Syria… and has deployed surface-to-surface rockets in northern Syria.”I will be damned, the US military has no idea which group they are supporting, given the reality of over 100 shifting terrorist cells fighting in Syria over a five year period. Our generals are at a loss of how America can define our specific role; other than ‘deter, intensify, and intercede’ among the different Russian, Kurdish, Turkey, Russian and Syrian troops.

“The Trump administration, however, has yet
to make clear which fighters will seize Raqqa.”
Really ?

Gen. Joseph L. Votel, the head of US Central Command [CENTCOM] repeated the words I heard Gen. Westmoreland once pronounce:

“I am concerned about maintaining the momentum.”After Westmoreland said those fateful words, my first assignment in the Nixon Administration was to prepare for the eventual evacuation of Vietnam and SE Asia.

Today, some of our soldiers have come home from Djibouti where they too were involved in ‘assistance and training’. Translated into every day terms, our American soldiers were involved in major firefights in Sudan, Yemen, and elsewhere in Africa. Yet Obama never declared a state of war. As usual, our cowardly congressional representatives never informed their constituents (the American taxpayers) exactly why we were spending countless billions of dollars in wars that are self-defeating and wasteful. We know that many leaders in Congress are graced with big bucks from weapons suppliers. Its time to vote these whores out of office.

https://img.new.livestream.com/events/000000000044b9e7/72925660-56a7-4701-8967-4e56a66d7b8a_640x484.png

Unfortunately, our military leaders are falling into the very trap that Lt. Gen. H.R. McMaster, the present National Security Advisor, wrote about in his PhD thesis—“Dereliction Of Duty”. McMaster postulated correctly that all the relevant political/military elite lied which resulted in a unwinnable war.

Sounds familiar?

Most of present day generals have very little experience in formulating a strategy for complete regime change. That is not to say, that each in his own time may have won a battle or two. Yet, not one of them has won a war. Or in the parlance of strategic singletons,

‘they never succeeded in changing one regime into another one successfully’.

http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-P971pGD7w7s/T2BmjfEctpI/AAAAAAAAASg/OGtg1GmiWYM/w1200-h630-p-k-nu/military_doctrine.jpg

The Iraq War was a complete disaster. There was no reason to invade Iraq. Predictably, the pathetic neocons under Rumsfeld [Wolfowitz, Perle, Khalizad, Feif, Bremer] never elaborated a coherent strategy for the post-invasion scenario.

That absence of a winnable strategy, according to “Dereliction of Duty,” was the fault of our present and retired generals.

Some history for you……
Against my professional advice, Lawrence Eagleburger agreed with the Pentagon and POTUS Reagan to send a similar Marine deployment to Beirut, Lebanon. I had been professionally involved with PLO leader Arafat and the IRG, I warned the senior military/civilian leadership that if we sent the 1st Battalion 8th Marines [Battalion Landing Team –BLT 1/8] to Beirut in any capacity, especially as so-called “UN/MNF peacekeepers” we would rue the day. I was in the business of working with and against my constant enemy/friendly companions:
Iranians
Hezbollah
PLO
PFLP
Christian Phalangists

Kissinger already lost one ambassador in the Lebanese Civil War and there would be increasingly more fatalities if we were to send our warriors into Harm’s Way. On October 23 1983, two suicide bombers attacked and killed 241 US Marines, 58 French 9th Parachute Chasseur Regiment and six civilians.

That was then.

Today we have the same enemies: Iran, IRG, Syria, Hezbollah—plus different factions of the Kurds who are being destroyed by our presumable friends, the Turks. Our potential ally, Russia, is supporting Dr. Bashar Assad and the IRG. This five year conflagration has killed over 500,000 civilians and displaced another 4 million refugees. Remember that ISIS was created by our illustrious CIA and it’s natural paterfamilias: Salafist Saudi Arabians
Hashemite Jordanians
corrupt UAE [oops, don’t forget the Mossad, IDF].
Could anything be more complicated?

I think not!!

If this playbook is as it seems right now, there's going to be every kind of SHT thrown at Trump for a long time to come. His job is to be the target of all their dirty tricks so they can show the world who and what they are. It's a far cleverer idea than sacking them up front and digging for the evidence behind the scenes. This way, we get to see it all and get the education we all need together as a population. The crooks and perverts will give us all a live show of squirming and lying and threatening and eventually collapsing in the horror that they have been outed full square in front of the world.

The only bit that's got me scratching my head is why can't the CIA/NSA/MOSAD/MI6 take Wikileaks out of action? I'd expect a terminally trapped and set up bunch of murderers like that to have dealt with Assange in short order......hmm?

According to Simon Parkes' info, it's actually US intelligence that is behind Wikileaks--elements in the CIA and NSA who want to see the elite exposed, which he said in his last Connecting Consciousness show.
(He didn't offer any proof or name his sources, but it would explain some things.
Right now Parkes is working on a barter developing project called Fair Exchange with seminal inventor Win Keech that you can hear about here, and why we're going to need it very soon during this time of transition) :

One of the Senate’s leading Republicans predicted Sunday that there are “a lot more shoes to drop” in the probe of President Trump (http://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/trump/)’s connections to Russia and said Congress must call top Trump (http://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/trump/) associates to Capitol Hill to testify.

Sen. John McCain of Arizona told CNN’s “State of the Union” program that he remains troubled by growing evidence that leading aides to the president communicated with Russia throughout the presidential campaign last year.

He specifically said longtime Trump (http://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/trump/) confidant Roger Stone, who admitted last week to having conversations with the hacking group that claimed responsibility for the breach of Democratic Party emails, must come before Congress to answer questions.

“There’s a lot of things about our relations with Russia that trouble me a lot,” Mr. McCain said. “There’s a lot of aspects of this whole relationship with Russia and Vladimir Putin that requires further scrutiny, and so far I don’t think the American people have gotten all the answers. In fact, I think there’s a lot more shoes to drop from this centipede.”

Imran Awan—the lead suspect in a criminal probe into breaches of House of Representatives information security systems—possessed the password to an iPad used by then-Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz when DNC emails were given to WikiLeaks, The Daily Caller News Foundation Investigative Group has learned.

Wasserman Schultz resigned the DNC post in the wake of WikiLeaks posting damaging internal emails, blaming the scandal on hacking by Russians.

Imran - Family - Members - IT - Members

Imran and his family members, all of whom worked as IT professionals for members of Congress, were banned from the House network Feb. 2, 2017, by the House Sergeant at Arms, but Wasserman Schultz has declined to fire him and circumvented the ban by having him “advise” her office.Wikileaks - Imran - House - Office - Florida

Wikileaks emails show that although Imran was employed by her taxpayer-funded House office, the Florida Democrat’s world–and iPad–mixed DNC, House and campaign business, and that Imran was on call for, and on a first-name basis with, top DNC staff.

Garret Bonosky, deputy director of the DNC, wrote in a May 4, 2016 email: “Amy — I will call you shortly. I have to get this iPad thing figured out. Need to make sure I have her username and password.”DNC - Assistant - Chair - Amy - Kroll

DNC Assistant to the Chair Amy Kroll responded: “I do not have access to her iPad password, but Imran does.”

Bonosky replied: “Just gave AK the cell phone for Imran.”
Kroll - Imran - GB

Kroll responded: “Just spoke to Imran, call me whenever GB and I’ll update you.”

WikiLeaks began publishing July 26, 2016, “44,053 emails and 17,761 attachments from the top of the U.S. Democratic National Committee … The leaks come from the accounts of seven key figures in the DNC.”

Past interim DNC Chair Donna Brazile initially claimed after the emails became public that they were fabricated, then switched explanations and said the Russians stole them...

...The FBI requested access to the DNC’s server to find out who was responsible, but the DNC refused, FBI Director James Comey said, according to The Hill (http://thehill.com/policy/national-security/313555-comey-fbi-did-request-access-to-hacked-dnc-servers).

Politico reported (http://www.politico.com/story/2017/03/house-democrats-it-staffers-hina-alvi-imran-awan-235569) that New York Rep. Gregory “Meeks and, to a larger extent, Wasserman Schultz, are said to have a friendly personal relationship with Awan and his wife, according to multiple sources.”

House authorities set their sights on the Awans while investigating the existence of a secret server that was funneling congressional data off-site.

They also suspect Imran of stealing money and equipment. Soon after he joined Wasserman Schultz’s congressional payroll in 2005, four of his relatives and one of his friends began getting paid by House members. It is not clear whether ghost employees are part of the theft being investigated, but the family collected a combined $5 million (http://dailycaller.com/2017/03/01/pakistani-suspects-in-house-it-probe-received-4-million-from-dem-reps/).

Over the last six years, the individuals in question worked for some 80 members of Congress, all Democrats, including members of the Homeland Security, Foreign Affairs, and Intelligence committees. They worked for multiple members at once, since the offices did not require full-time IT services.

Wasserman Schultz spokesman David Damron did not respond to questions about whether the stolen emails might have come from Imran. Damron also declined to respond when asked if Wasserman Schultz has stronger evidence the theft was committed by a Russian.

Computer security experts say the most common threat comes from someone abusing a position of trust, trusting the wrong person or a perpetrator manipulating someone using “social engineering” to gain access; all such explanations defy the prevalent stereotype of distant strangers using high-tech tricks.

“Meeks said he was hesitant to believe the accusations against Alvi, Imran Awan and the three other staffers, saying their background as Muslim Americans, some with ties to Pakistan, could make them easy targets for false charges,” Politico reported (http://www.politico.com/story/2017/03/house-democrats-it-staffers-hina-alvi-imran-awan-235569), adding that, he did not see a “smoking gun.”

Earlier this year, the brothers were accused of using high-tech listening devices (http://dailycaller.com/2017/03/08/house-staffers-in-security-probe-allegedly-kept-stepmom-in-captivity-to-access-offshore-cash/) against their own stepmom as part of a scheme to ensure that she didn’t stop them from accessing money stashed in Pakistan under their father’s name. A relative said they threatened to have the woman’s loved ones in Pakistan kidnapped if she didn’t give them power of attorney to access assets stored in their dying father’s name.
Their stepmother called the Fairfax County, Virginia, police shortly before the Capitol Police disclosed the individuals as targets of the investigation.

In a May 12, 2016, email that went out to Bonosky and other top DNC staff, Wasserman Schultz staffer Rosalyn Kumar wrote (https://wikileaks.org/dnc-emails/emailid/42803): “Pelosi is doing s closed-door meeting. No staff or anyone allowed. Kaitlyn come to Rayburn room and get her iPad for Imran.”

As the IT employees who set up user accounts, they had superuser privileges and could read any emails and files saved on the computers of House members’ offices.
While they were supposed to be working for the House, they were also running a limited liability corporation called “CIA,” apparently a car dealership, that racked up massive debts and fraud accusations.

CIA took and never repaid a $100,000 loan from Dr. Ali Al-Attar, an Iranian-Iraqi who is a fugitive from U.S. authorities and has been linked to Hezbollah (http://dailycaller.com/2017/02/21/congressional-computer-admins-in-criminal-probe-owed-money-to-hezbollah-connected-fugitive/).

Abid Awan filed for bankruptcy in 2012, listing $1 million (http://dailycaller.com/2017/02/07/congress-it-probe-suspects-had-massive-debts-years-of-suspicious-activity/) in liabilities. Employers typically don’t allow people with money problems to have access to sensitive information, because the financial pressures can cause them to misuse it.

Former Secretary of Labor Tom Perez was elected the DNC’s new chair in February, along with Minnesota Democrat Rep. Keith Ellison, as his deputy.

Neither Perez nor Ellison responded to a request for comment on what the House and DNC are doing to accurately assess whether the Awans stole data.

So what if he doesn't have 'proof' it was barry, then what? Don't tell me you can get impeached for saying something bad about barry. Vault 7 has made a strong case for our intel posing as russians but they are of course going to concentrate on him naming obama.... damn...

he should have followed up the stupid tweet with another to the effect of he was upset with info he was advised with and was imprecise and he apologizes for being imprecise or impetuous or something to that effect... I mean lay on the bull... I mean this isn't time to be an honest injun boy scout trying to obtain all the 100% proof with people who are out to kill ya... but what do I know except I'd prefer secession to living in this country ruled by leftists; it was bad enough for the last 8 years but now that the hatred and insanity of the left has been so blatantly revealed...

Don't the repubs see that their party is finished if they don't get behind trump... what future is there for them by being limp di**s?

It would certainly mean that Trump would lose credibility amongst the Houses & Senate which would make it more difficult for him to get things done. He would loses support.

My sense tells me that Trump, on a number of occasions, has made several statements without showing any facts or evidence to back him up, but those facts come along later to prove that he had been correct in what he had stated. If I didn't know any better, the man seems to have a kind of Sixth Sense about himself, that pulls and/or pushes him to make these seemingly obscure statements, which later become true.

This appears to me to be a word game that is being played. Obama claims he did not 'order' the surveillance. But its clear that he signed an EO that made it possible for surveillance to be carried out prior to his leaving office.

Here we have Dennis Kucinich coming forward with what happened to him regarding the wiretap that went on with his call with Gadaffi's son. Perhaps, more Congressional members will step forward with their stories.

Former congressman (Kucinich)
claims he was wiretapped

Now the above ZeroHedge article says "Trump Requests More Time to Prove Obama Wiretapped Trump Tower" (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-03-13/trump-administration-asks-additional-time-prove-obama-wiretapped-trump-tower) (Post #2530 (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?90590-Transition-into-Trump&p=1140236&viewfull=1#post1140236)), tells me that Trump may have something that George Webb has been finding in his research... That the Awan Brothers is from where the original hacking was taking place.

For those not familiar, the Awan brothers were Pakistani IT specialists that were hired by various Congressional Democrat Senators. Their step-mother had made the statement that she was held captive within the house she was staying in with them. After a time, this woman later called the police & gave the statement that these Awan brothers were in the business of hacking cell phones. They also had access to 30 some Senators computers - the Congress members had employed these Awan brothers for their IT capabilities. After they were let go / discharged from their Congressional employment, Debbie Wasermann Schultz kept one of the Awan brothers on to work for her in a private / personal capacity.

George Webb contends that the Awan Brothers are the true source of the hacking of emails. And that the Congressional investigation of the so-called 'Russian Hack' should include investigation into the Awan Brothers access to the above mentioned Senators, including Debbie Wasserman Schultz. In the latest Wikileaks dump, there is a document that shows that an Awan brother was seemingly given the password to an email account by someone that thought it would be okay to do so... See Post #2529 (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?90590-Transition-into-Trump&p=1140227&viewfull=1#post1140227) that contains the Daily Signal article along with the related George Webb videos.

I am waiting to see how this particular episode unfolds...

"The Deep State Pushes Their Agenda To Have Trump Removed And Replaced With Pence"

Have raised these concerns on the Vault 7 thread; If the Deep State want Pence, that could mean they see Pence as controllable. ("double-agent?"). And if the Deep State want it, that can't be good...

Let's not forget that Pence "allegedly" wanted Flynn to strike off his friend from the Pedophile list, too. :(

As Jeff Rense pointed out recently, if Pence becomes the President, he will need to appoint a Vice President.

That's where it gets very interesting. What if that Vice President is Jeb Bush ?

I think your 'sense' is also correct about trump and hope it will come through once again.

I have gone to youtube to george webb to try to find a beginning to all his research but it's enormous. I wish I had the time...he has multiple threads going at once, multiple Part I's, multiple Part II's... and I still don't know who exactly he is....when people know soooo much and are still walking around I wonder...

along the lines of Trump's "tweet" regarding the suggestion "Obama wire tapped me" -

Finally an MSM source says how and how it cannot be proven...

Judge Nap: Obama 'Went Outside Chain of Command,' Used British Spy Agency to Surveil Trump (http://insider.foxnews.com/2017/03/14/judge-napolitano-why-there-may-never-be-proof-even-if-obama-spied-trump)

(see the less than 3 minute video)

The Justice Department on Monday asked lawmakers for more time to gather evidence related to President Trump's claim that former President Obama ordered wiretaps on Trump Tower's phones during last year's presidential campaign.

The House Intelligence Committee said it would give the Justice Department until March 20 to comply.

Current and former administration officials have been unable to provide any evidence of the Obama administration wiretapping Trump Tower, yet the president's aides have been reluctant to publicly contradict their boss.

On "Fox & Friends" this morning, Judge Andrew Napolitano said that even if the Obama administration did spy on Trump, there may never be a way to prove it.

He explained that the statutes allow the president to order the surveillance of any person in the U.S., without suspicion, probable cause or a warrant, but that would leave "fingerprints."

In this case, the alleged surveillance was reportedly ordered in a way that left no record, he said.

"Three intelligence sources have informed Fox News that President Obama went outside the chain of command," Napolitano said. "He didn't use the NSA, he didn't use the CIA, he didn't use the FBI, and he didn't use the Department of Justice."

Instead, Napolitano said, Obama used GCHQ, a British intelligence and security organization that has 24-7 access to the NSA database.

"There's no American fingerprints on this," Napolitano said. "What happened to the guy who ordered this? Resigned three days after Donald Trump was inaugurated."

and then see this post (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?95892-Vault-7&p=1139673&viewfull=1#post1139673)

Perhaps it is time for Americans to stop believing that "Americans" (and their 'exceptionalism'... specifically in relation to suggestions of their 'morality' such that "they would never do something like that) would never spy on their own and would never do so to gain political advantage.

But I won't hold my breath.

In memory of donk...

"Humans are, indeed... human. Like it or not."

Good catch, Sam. I found the video of this just published 14 minutes ago...

Will respond to the what the real reason why Pence & Lt. General Flynn had their 'heated' row over what was not told by Flynn to Pence.... just got to run someone to the airport, now... will be back...

Let's not forget that Pence "allegedly" wanted Flynn to strike off his friend from the Pedophile list, too. :(

Hi KiwiElf, I believe the desire for Pence over Trump might be because Pence is a politician and all politicians rise by proving they are adept at playing "the favor game."

And I have a request... where is this Flynn information suggesting Pence tried to get a pedo friend protected via Flynn? I see this mentioned here and there but have not yet stumbled upon the sourcing.

Sorry Sam, old news going back to Flynn's removal. A quick Google search: "flynn pedophile list" renders this:

His notion of not prosecuting for the criminals feeds the skepticism.

HUGE Exclusive Interview With DHS Insider! (http://victuruslibertas.com/2017/02/exclusive_interview_with_dhs_insider/)

Posted on February 16, 2017 (http://victuruslibertas.com/2017/02/exclusive_interview_with_dhs_insider/) by Angie (http://victuruslibertas.com/author/administrator/)
VL has been fortunate enough to work with some awesome people! We have loyal and awakened followers who help bring us information, and we also have trusted insiders, whistleblowers and leakers who trust us enough to give us information, too. Today, we have an exclusive interview with a special DHS insider who has answered some critical questions we have on PizzaGate. Our insider prefers to call it PedoGate and what he told us blew our minds!

We are so fortunate that members of the Intel community like our work and feel they can trust us. We have been trying to get to the bottom of PizzaGate for months and the answers we got from our DHS insider stunned and shocked us. Here we go!

Q. So, in the Intelligence community, how chaotic is the atmosphere now?

A. In my 34 years of Governmental service, I have never seen anything like it. It’s the bifurcation of the entire intelligence apparatus.
Q. It seems the intel community has it in for Trump – is this your feeling?

A. There are many Trump supporters within the FBI. The CIA, however, is against Trump because Trump threatens to ruin their game in the middle east.
Q. Can you elaborate?

A. CIA and Mossad work in tandem with British intel. The goal for the CIA was to replace Assad with a puppet and to topple Iran so we could access their oil. Israel works closely with it’s “sister”, Saudi Arabia, to help this dark cause.
Q. So it seems like the intel community has it in for Trump. How can he protect himself?

A. Trump has a tremendous opportunity here, but needs to circle wagons. The travel ban included 7 countries chosen by both Jared Kushner and Rudy. Why did it not include Saudi Arabia, or Pakistan, or Turkey or other countries that hate us? The seven nations mentioned were chosen by Israel, that’s why. And the unspoken alliance of Israel and Saudi Arabia should be exposed. They are brother and sister. Jared Kushner needs to be careful with what he says and to whom. But, the biggest thing Trump can do is expose PedoGate via Sessions. Big names will go down hard, and it gets the blood suckers drained from the swamp. There are as many pedophiles on the Republican side as there is with democrats, but Trump is in a unique position to truly “clean up Dodge”, so to speak. I can tell you that what is in Anthony Weiner’s hard drive, and what videos exist via Jeffery Epstein, WILL BRING massive arrests – in time. Trump’s legacy could be truly great if he was to purge the CIA, stop the extortion, prosecute the pedophiles and reinstate the death penalty for pedo’s convicted a second time. Pedogate is his path to greatness.
Q. How does Russia fit into all this?

A. The CIA and Israel are responsible for the creation of Isis. Isis was created specifically to weaken Iran and destabilize Syria. It worked for awhile until Putin shored up Assad and bolstered Iranian Qud forces. The real reason you see such anti-Russian fever from both Schumer and McCain, Graham and Feinstein, is because the operation has blown up in our faces.
Q. Is Israel behind the anti Russian sentiment?

A. Yes. Israeli intelligence is furious with Trump, and will do anything to keep Trump from working with Putin. Understand that if Trump and Putin work together to defeat Isis, they are actually defeating a CIA/Mossad creation, and furthermore, Syria and Iran grow stronger, which the Saudis and the Israeli’s fear. Their goal was to divide Syria and ultimately destroy Iran’s regime. It is not just an oil grab, but a much bigger attempt at moving the chess pieces to allow Israel and Saudi Arabia to dominate the entire Middle East.
Q. So they demonize Putin and try to tarnish the Trump administration?

A. The Deep State is at war with both Trump and Putin. Understand that when Israeli intelligence hears “America first” from Trump, they go apesh¡t. Israel has bribed, extorted and intimidated our politicians for decades and suddenly this upstart billionaire threatens to ruin everything.
Q. You mention the word extort. Does that relate to Pizzagate?

A. PedoGate is only a modern term associated with a long history of Pedo-blackmail connected to both Israel and the Intel community. There is a full court press to stop PedoGate from being looked at because if people knew the true motives behind the pedophilia epidemic, they would do more than march on Washington. They could actually seed a revolution, with the spark coming from decent American parents who want to protect their kids. Our politicians are compromised. The senior analyst nicknamed “FBI Anon” alluded to this in his exchange with folks on 4chan and with you.
Q. What do you mean compromised?

A. Do you notice 2 central themes running through the MSM lately? Those themes are “Fear the Russians” and “#PizzaGate is fake news“. Both tropes come from the same place.
Q. Can you explain?

A. How do we exert power? Via fear. Do you ever wonder why both Democrats and Republicans fall all over themselves to kiss up to Israel? Odd, since Israel is the size of Rhode Island… The fact is, many of our politicians – on both sides – have been compromised by CIA and Mossad for years. It’s actually not admiration they are expressing for Israel, but fear. Notice Lindsay Graham and Chuck Schumer repeating the same salute when it comes to Israel. How does that even happen? The American people are finally seeing that there is no two-party system, but one big shadow Government pretending we have political dichotomy.
Q. So PedoGate is real and “they” have to get Americans to disbelieve it?

A. Let me explain how threatening PedoGate is… Who wins? Trump. Putin. Americans. Russians. The world…. Who loses? Israel, since they no longer can blackmail our politicians, the same goes for the CIA. The Shadow Government loses. But, the people win.
Q. Can you give me specific instances of politicians being compromised by Israel?

A. Sure. Lolita Island. Jeffery Epstein, a billionaire convicted of pedophilia received a soft sentence. His island was rigged with video recorders. Many politicians have been compromised. It was a Mossad/CIA operation. Contact ex-senior CIA CCS, Robert David Steele. Bob knows and has even spoken about this with numerous reporters.
Q. So an ex-CIA senior agent named Robert Steele is on record saying Epstein’s island was a honey trap to lure our most powerful politicians into a extortion scheme?

A. Yes. There are videos of some of the most powerful players in the most humiliating positions. If this gets out, not only are the politicians ruined, but the extortion game is over and suddenly, the influence CIA and Mossad wield over Washington, is gone.
Q. Wow ! Now its all making sense.

A. Yes. lets continue this conversation later.

__________________________________________

The interview resumes

Q. So I checked out Robert David Steele, and he mentions Chuck Schumer being on Lolita Island. So does FBI anon. Is that why Schumer is targeting Trump’s cabinet picks?

A. Connect the dots.
Q. How many other politicians have been secretly extorted?

A. One in three, roughly. It’s not just the Island, its all of their activities. The reason #Pedogate terrifies the media, the CIA, the Israel Lobby, is because they are all part of this “shadow swamp”
Q. Former CIA agent, Robert Steele, says Mossad operated Lolita Island and CIA worked with them. That’s treason on all levels.

A. Yes, and its espionage. Just as these leaks from the intel community regarding Flynn. I expect that at some later moment, Trump will leak some of these videos
Q. Wait. Trump has videos of politicians in ‘delicate” situations?

A. No, But the Intel community has them, and Trump has strong support among certain players in the community. Trump has said he wants to “throw a spotlight on the cockroaches”.
Q. But Trump just met with Netanyahu and pledged the usual unbreakable bond with Israel.

A. Theatre. Netanyahu is desperate to both play Trump into attacking Syria,and hate Putin, and to convince him PedoGate is a conspiracy theory.
Q. That is what Robert Steele says, as well. So, exposing the Pedophiles diminishes Israel’s influence in American politics and also changes the map in a critical mass way?

A. The same media screaming “The Russians are coming” is the same media who says “Pizzagate is fake news” That’s CIA and Mossad talking points.
Q. How do social media giants like Facebook and Google fit in?

A. Facebook and CIA are literally the same petri-dish. Google became a Deep State organ courtesy of Eric Schmidt.
Q. Getting back to the Pedo stuff, FBI anon said in July of last year, that the Clinton Foundation sold secrets to foreign nations. Did they also engage in PizzaGate?

A. There are videos of WJC that would destroy him. FBI anon leaked weeks ago, on purpose. There was a reason.
Q. Ok, FBI anon gave Schumers initials, and Barnet Frank and others, but so far we have only seen low level arrests.

A . FBI anon did a “bank shot”. That’s a pool hall term we use. Ask Bob about it. FBI Anon rattled their cages as other DHS and local authorities rounded up all sorts of street-level human traffickers. The big arrests will come in time, but first the small fish are interrogated, and provide information that leads to larger fish. FBI Anon was firing a shot across the bow, much like you shake a beehive to infuriate the bees. Notice how blatantly hostile McCain, Schumer, Graham, and others are? It was what we call a “targeted trigger“.

It worked. By long-kniving Flynn, they exposed their hand. Now, Trump has full executive powers to investigate the CIA and Mossad. Notice how there is sound and fury about “Russian influence” and utter silence on “Mossad” influence in our power structure?

When FBI anon leaked in early July, the whole idea was to expose the Clinton Foundation,and to hint at the sale of “people” i.e. Pedogate. Look back at his exchange on 4chan. He is a gifted analyst, and knows just what stone to throw at Goliath’s noggin. By triggering the shadow Government, he helps citizen journalists ask the right questions and follow the right breadcrumbs, not the rabbit holes the Elite scum want you to follow.

Now, PedoGate victims are speaking out on their experiences! You just had a story on some lady who went through having her family abused by California-Deep-State-sponsored terrorism. If folks knew that CPS in California is tied into a huge racket that kidnaps children from parents, they would realize just how sick this is. Foster homes, CPS, etc… all get paid well to jail parents and then snatch their kids away. These kids suffer abuse, and perpetuate the growing cancer called pedogate. Politicians who have pedophile tendencies are groomed for power, because they can be later extorted and controlled. Meanwhile, victims have no voice- until now. Suddenly, we have citizen journalism, and it will end up saving the people, in the end.

I have to go, but please contact Robert David Steele, the former CIA agent we discussed. I am sure he would appear on your channel. You are providing a real service to the people and we hope you will continue to speak up for the regular folks who are concerned, rightfully, as to the state of our nation. Take care

VL’s Pentagon Insider Reveals All in a Q & A (http://victuruslibertas.com/2017/03/3154/)

Posted on March 10, 2017
by Angie

https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Ya3ubJDJ8XA/hqdefault.jpg

We have been reaching out to our Pentagon insider and… FINALLY! We got a reply and he has agreed to answer some questions about Vault 7.

Q. Vault 7 is the biggest story of the year, right?

A. It gets bigger by orders of magnitude.
Q. So what happens now?

A. The story will go well beyond Implants, C2’s, and LP’s.
Q. What does that mean?

A. Listening posts, Malware. The danger is in how the CIA declassified “war code”. They also failed to keep different eggs in different baskets. This can be blamed on the agency not wanting to loop NSA in their plans. In essence, the CIA sought to create their own NSA.
Q. What do you see happening next?

A. Well, “Whack A Mole” takes on a whole new meaning!
Q. Whoa…….

A. The media steps in. Talking heads bemoan the “threat to national security”, blame Russia, avoid any mention of Uk involvement or Israel, which by the way, is furious beyond belief and scared sh¡tless at the release of Vault 7… as are the Brits.
Q. We keep hearing this. Why? The Brits and Israeli’s are allies, right?

A. Define ally? The CIA, MI6 and Israeli secret service have been engaged in asymmetrical espionage on civilians, both domestically and abroad. They turned their tradecraft on the civi’s. Thats not going to play out well. There are bigger floods ahead, I fear.

Q. Floods?

A. Its a term used to denote large scale leaks or breeches in intelligence.
Q. What type of things can we expect?

A. Right now, the first dump concentrated on the CIA’s toolkit. The fear and loathing barometer tells me there is real concern the source code will get leaked, and even bigger concern the CIA’s past ‘activities” get exposed. If that happens, we will have a shockwave and an instant realignment of friends and foes.
Q. Could you explain further?

A. Lets say Wikileaks divulges that the CIA engages in domestic espionage in tandem with Mossad and MI6… Lets say CIA looks the other way while foreign nations are allowed to surveil American citizens… Lets say the people find out we created Isis with Israel, or the CIA really did neutralize Kennedy. Imagine how the citizens will view the CIA, Mossad and MI6. In truth, these entities are not the beast, but rather the claws of the beast. The combination of the CIA, Mossad and MI6 can be considered the greatest sponsors of terrorism in the world.
Q. Wow. So you are saying Wikileaks may leak the secret history of the CIA?

A. I am sure its coming. Why did they use a Kennedy quote referencing the CIA’s destruction as their passphrase? I am pretty certain they plan to expose just who was behind the Kennedy assassination.
Q. If foreign nations were behind 9/11, will the people sit idly and forget about it and go back to their everyday lives?

A. 2 years ago, I would have been confident they would have behaved as the lemmings the CIA expects them to behave like. But the foundation of trust is eroding. People no longer trust DC, MSM, Banks, our courts, etc.
Q. Will Pedogate ever be fully exposed?

A. Vault 7 will make certain that Pedogate is exposed. CIA and Mossad are behind much of it. Many in my close circle welcomes what Wikileaks has done. Most military servicemen serve honorably. Most law enforcement as well. We want the swamp drained. If Trump muzzles Pence, and guides this nation by his instincts, my guess is he will gut the CIA, modernize it, kick the MI6 and Mossad out of the tent and start re-evaluating who our friends are. Start with Saudi Arabia. Our relationship with the UK is very good from a military standpoint. That will not go away. But, we need to weaken the power and reach of our current intelligence community as it is forced to disengage from foreign intelligence services like Mi6 and Mossad. We have to stand alone.

Q. Whats the immediate effect of Vault 7 for the average computer user?

A. Siege mentality, I would imagine. Is your anti virus actually a virus? You will see computer “eye patches” being sold to cover the camera. Users will start to physically disable their mics, and only use headphone mic’s that you can detach when not using it.The public will equate all internet enabled consumer products as weapons of espionage and potential murder. The climate of the American public is one of distrust and apprehension. They do not feel protected. If you’re talking about a failure to protect America people, you can add, the CDC, the SEC, the USDA, Homeland Security, and just about every other branch of government.

But, the sub rosa conclusions swim in even deeper waters. America feels sabotaged by it’s Government. We falsely believed we were spectators at a Roman Arena, watching the blood sport of foreign wars on our flat screens and computers. Iraq, Syria, Yemen.

But, now we have soft terror in France, Germany, Turkey, United States, and so on. And with the revelation of our devices listening in on us, its clear we are not spectators in the Roman Arena, but lion and gladiator fodder, as well.
Q. So its all going to hell?

A. No. Vault 7 is a good thing, actually. From a military standpoint, it’s better to protect an aware civilian population than one that is programmed and obtuse . The average Joe and Mary damn well want to know if their kids are being spied on. The exploitation of these cybertools, in the hands of pedophiles, psychopaths and phishermen is what should really alarm people. This is a watershed moment in American history, The pursuit of privacy may eclipse the pursuit of happiness.
Q. Can I trust my phone?

A. Google’s Android Operating System is used in almost 9 out of 10 smart phones globally. Google, Facebook and Apple may very well have sold backdoor access to the CIA. We call it Judas technology.

Day 142 - Hillary's Hackers,
McCabe Stages Coup
(Published on Mar 14, 2017)

EXCLUSIVE: FBI’s Own Political Terror Plot;
Deputy Director and FBI Brass Secretly
Conspired to Wage Coup Against Flynn & Trump (http://truepundit.com/exclusive-fbis-own-political-terror-plot-deputy-director-and-fbi-brass-secretly-conspired-to-wage-coup-against-flynn-trump-2/)

https://i0.wp.com/truepundit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/694940094001_5323543204001_flynn-s-resignation-trump-scandal-dems-want-or-leaks-2.jpg?resize=884%2C497

Mere days before Gen. Michael Flynn was sacked as national security advisor, FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe gathered more than a dozen of his top FBI disciples to plot how to ruin Flynn’s aspiring political career and manufacture evidence to derail President Donald Trump, according to FBI sources.

McCabe, the second highest ranking FBI official, emphatically declared at the invite-only gathering with raised voice:

“F*ck Flynn and then we F*ck Trump,” according to direct sources. Many of his top lieutenants applauded and cheered such rhetoric. A scattered few did not.
This was one of several such meetings held in seclusion among key FBI leaders since Trump was elected president, FBI sources confirm. At the congregation where McCabe went off the political rails and vowed to destroy Flynn and Trump, there were as many as 16 top FBI officials, inside intelligence sources said. No lower-level agents or support personnel were present.

If you are among the millions of Americans who have pondered in recent months whether the Obama-era “Deep State” intelligence apparatus and FBI are working for or against Trump, this is the first definitive proof that the country’s once-premiere law enforcement agency has gone rogue.

The non-elected hierarchy that steer the FBI have declared war on President Trump and his White House inner circle. Make no mistake.

Days after the McCabe tirade, Flynn was forced to resign. That was no coincidence. This is how secret coups waged by the top law enforcement personnel in the top law enforcement agency in any country operate. Efficiently. If the FBI wants you silenced or out of a job, you’ll be unemployed. Ask Michael Flynn and countless others.

Part of the plan hatched at that gathering was to make sure Flynn’s wiretapped conversations were leaked to the media, FBI and intelligence sources said. They were. Did the FBI leak this classified intelligence to the news media? Isn’t that a question President Trump and Congress should be posing? If nothing else, McCabe and his FBI secret council are certainly now suspects of who possibly leaked the intelligence. Seems that a number of polygraphs should be in order.

Embattled FBI Director James Comey did not attend these private meetings of his interoffice revolutionaries, sources said, though he was aware of the gatherings yet did not discourage them or McCabe’s inflammatory and dangerous rhetoric. Some FBI agents have questioned if the Anti-Trump attitude shared in the secret sit downs with the bureau’s top brass is now the official platform of the FBI. The FBI, many agents quietly agree, has proven no friend to the newly minted US president. And they are beginning to understand why.

As far as waging political coups go: So far, so good. The FBI’s secret plan to ruin Flynn worked. And fast. Flynn is long gone. Now they can focus on ruining President Trump. After all, Isn’t that the role of the FBI? Tampering with the president of the United States and his inner circle, neither of whom have broken any laws?

It turns out, however, the FBI isn’t very good at the spy game. McCabe’s dictatorial tone ruffled a number of agents at FBI headquarters who still believe the mission of the bureau is not to wage clandestine warfare against the sitting president and his administration.

McCabe and Comey did not respond to requests for comment. Flynn could not be reached for comment.

This isn’t McCabe’s first rodeo in the cross-hairs of controversy at the FBI where he is outranked only by Comey. In fact, McCabe garnered problematic headlines during the 2016 presidential election.

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/C627Qa_XUAAnV_v.jpg

Democratic factions controlled by a Hillary Clinton insider paid the deputy director of the FBI’s wife almost $700,000 in campaign funds before McCabe, who was supervising Clinton’s investigation, lobbied against charging her criminally, according to records and interviews obtained by True Pundit.

Dr. Jill McCabe was a Virginia state senate candidate in 2015. Longtime Clinton family consigliere and Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe, sent her approximately $675,000 to fund the Democrat hopeful’s campaign coffers. Dr. McCabe, a physician, is married to the FBI deputy director. Mrs. McCabe is a registered Democrat. FBI agents who work with McCabe say he and his wife were both staunch Hillary Clinton supporters.

According to one FBI insider, the McAuliffe-generated campaign funds may have ultimately bought Clinton some strategic breathing room.

“McCabe was one of the few people who backed Comey’s decision not to refer Hillary Clinton to the Justice Department for indictment,” a FBI source said of the July 2016 decision not to refer Clinton for criminal charges for violating email and document safeguards for classified and Top Secret national security intelligence. “McCabe and Comey are both lawyers. They aren’t street agents. They’re more political. We wanted her (Clinton) indicted. They did not.”

Gov. McAuliffe has been an important Clinton family insider for decades. During Bill Clinton’s presidential candidacy and subsequent reelection, McAuliffe often spearheaded investigations into Clinton critics and helped silence women who alleged Bill Clinton harassed or sexually assaulted them, sources said.

Ironically, McAuliffe is currently under investigation by the FBI for alleged campaign-related finance infractions.

McAuliffe’s contributions to Dr. McCabe’s campaign match the exact time frame of the FBI’s parallel Clinton investigation. No contributions were made prior to the FBI’s probe of Clinton. McCabe was overseeing personnel decisions, including assigning agents to the Clinton investigation team, at the FBI’s Washington D.C.’s field office when his wife began her 2015 campaign. His wife lost the election after spending an estimated $1.8 million on the senate run. Three months later, Comey promoted McCabe to FBI Deputy Director in February 2016. The promotion helped fill a very large void created by the retirement of John Giacalone, who was the supervisor of the bureau’s National Security Branch and also the FBI brains and genesis behind the Clinton email and private server investigation. Since the inception of the case, Giacalone had spearheaded the Clinton investigation, and helped hand select top agents who were highly skilled but also discreet. Many of those agents were concerned when Giacalone abruptly resigned in the middle of the investigation.

FBI insiders said Giacalone used the term “sideways” to describe the direction the Clinton probe had taken in the bureau. Giacalone lamented privately he no longer had confidence in the direction the investigation was headed. He felt it was simpler to quietly step aside, walk away instead of fight to keep the investigation on its proper track. Giacalone was a true heavyweight agent at FBI. In fact, he likely should have been running the entire show. His pedigree included running and creating FBI divisions in New York, Philadelphia, Washington D.C. and even serving as deputy commander in the Iraqi theater of operations. But in the midst of the Clinton investigation, Giacalone handed the bureau his retirement papers in February 2016.

The day after Giacalone’s departure, Comey tapped McCabe to help oversee the ongoing Clinton case and personally serve “as the eyes and ears” for Comey, sources confirmed. Since early July 2016, Comey has come under intense fire from critics and the majority of Americans who believe he granted Clinton a get-out-of-jail-free card by refusing to refer the case to the Justice Department for a probable slam-dunk indictment on at least one of potential dozens of criminal charges.

Now Comey, McCabe and their rogue FBI Sanhedrin face a new dilemma: Colleagues who have blown the whistle on the partisan agency, specifically how personal and political philosophies have crept into the FBI and commandeered the bureau’s powerful reach and resources to tamper with law-abiding White House personnel, including the president. That’s called public corruption, a crime the FBI is tasked with investigating.

Just like it “investigated” $700,000 in donations from the Clinton family to the wife of the FBI’s deputy director who, during the exact time frame was tasked with overseeing the investigation of Hillary Clinton. She ultimately was never charged with any crime and McCabe received a FBI promotion. Does anyone have the phone number for the FBI’s public corruption unit? Or does that line ring directly to McCabe and Comey?

We would normally demand a federal investigation into such allegations of collusion. But who would conduct it, the FBI?

George Webb had been complaining about Preet Bharara for months, and now he's been fired.

George Webb has also been complaining about Andrew McCabe for months, and now what do you know? He's under the spotlight as well.

Either somebody is listening to Mr. Webb, or others are just seeing the exact same problems that he's seeing.

Yes, A Voice from the Mountains, I've been noticing that at least there is a couple of alternative news sites that have been picking up his information and running with it. The Daily Caller is probably the one that is doing more of it. The True Pundit, as noted by George Webb, himself, has got some former intel people that are a part of it.

Speaking of former intel, here's an interview with Scott Uehlinger, a former CIA Station Field Chief... here is his website, TheStationChief.com (http://www.thebeancast.com/the-station-chief)... (More than likely, you will have to turn up your volume on this one)...

Scott Uehlinger-Obama Running
a Shadow Government
(Published on Mar 14, 2017)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vRKtz3iX8Es
Published on Mar 14, 2017

Former CIA Officer Scott Uehlinger says that former President Obama is running his own shadow government. Uehlinger contends, “Shadow government is a mainstream expression even in the countries where I lived. When you are a Prime Minister in power, you always had an opposition Prime Minister or a shadow Prime Minister. The opposition guy lines up his guys, and each of them has an opposite number in the administration. Actually, Obama has set up, and he can call it anything he wants, but, effectively, it is a shadow government, and it’s designed to undercut the legitimacy of the Trump Administration. We are in unknown territory here.”

Join Greg Hunter as he goes One-on-One with former CIA Station Chief Scott Uehlinger.

America in Totally
Unknown Territory - Scott Uehlinger (http://usawatchdog.com/america-in-totally-unknown-territory-scott-uehlinger/)
March 15, 2017
By Greg Hunter’s USAWatchdog.com (http://usawatchdog.com/)
Former CIA Station Chief Scott Uehlinger says the 2016 Presidential Election put “America in totally unknown territory.” Uehlinger explains, “I lived in countries like Azerbaijan, Moldova and Kosovo. These were rough and tumble places where this was my bread and butter. There was always a Prime Minister or a head of state that was using intelligence services to embarrass or frame or destroy members of the opposition party. This is something I have seen time and time again. This is something I have had to collect intelligence on time and time and time again, and I think this kind of gives me a unique perspective into what is going on in the United States right now. I have seen this all before, but we also have to remember that this has never been here before. This is something new for Americans and, unfortunately, it’s not really new for me.

Uehlinger says that former President Obama is running his own shadow government. Uehlinger contends, “Shadow government is a mainstream expression even in the countries where I lived. When you are a Prime Minister in power, you always had an opposition Prime Minister or a shadow Prime Minister. The opposition guy lines up his guys, and each of them has an opposite number in the administration. Actually, Obama has set up, and he can call it anything he wants, but, effectively, it is a shadow government, and it’s designed to undercut the legitimacy of the Trump Administration. We are in unknown territory here.”

So, what does Trump have to do to survive and succeed? Uehlinger says, “Trump needs to be more aggressive in bringing in his supporters, people who believe in what his campaign stood for. He needs to bring them more quickly into the government. In the meantime, these offices are empty, and until it’s filled with somebody who is an inherent of President Trump, it’s going to be occupied temporarily by a civil servant who is elevated to that position and . . . most of those people are Democrats. So, the faster President Trump moves in and fills up these buildings, the better off he’s going to be.”

Uehlinger goes on to say, “Trump is not there by himself. 30% of the agencies are going to be people who think the way I do. It’s the same way that most cops that deal in the real world are conservatives, it’s the same way in the CIA. The academics and those people who are products of the universities are going to be more liberal. However, the people in the streets, the case officers and operations officers such as myself, who are up to our elbows in the real world and understand how the real world works, I think a lot of those people think the status quo is intolerable and has to be changed. So, Mr. Trump has support, but he doesn’t have as much because of the natural tendency that the civil servants tend to be Democrat.”

Loretta Lynch expedited Trump wiretap
requests: Former intel and police officer (https://conservativebase.com/loretta-lynch-expedited-trump-wiretap-requests-former-intel-and-police-officer/)
March 10, 2017
By Jim-Kouri
As this week’s spy drama continues to unfold, a former military intelligence officer and police detective told Conservative Base that last year President Barack Obama’s Attorney General, Loretta Lynch, signed off on — and expedited — two FISA (Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act) Court requests to wiretap the Trump campaign.

Former homicide detective Barry Thomas Neallon, a retired intelligence operative with the U.S. Marines (*Force Recon), claims,

“If Attorney General Lynch was processing applications for electronic eavesdropping warrants, then both her boss, Barack Obama, and her FBI chief, James Comey, had to know about the spying and the justification to invade the privacy of a presidential candidate from the opposition party.”

Besides Neallon’s statement to Conservative Base, ABC News reported on Thursday that all of the applications to the FISA Court were authorized by Lynch.

“[Which] means that she chose not to investigate the Clinton Foundation for illegal activities but rather signed an application to wiretap President Trump,” stated Jim Hoft (http://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2017/03/draft-report-attorney-general-lynch-signed-off-on-fisa-applications-to-wiretap-president-trump/), the editor-in-chief for the Gateway Pundit website.

https://conservativebase.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/2017/03/Deep-State-vs-Trump.jpg

Just about every news story on the subject of the Trump wiretaps mentions that the FISA Court turned down the first request to wiretap Trump even though it was requested by Lynch herself. The fact the FISA judge nixed the warrant is evidence that the Justice Department did not even come close to satisfying the usually minimal standards for obtaining such warrants.

Out of close to 11,000 warrant applications during the Obama administration only two were rejected by the FISA Court. “It’s almost like getting an indictment from a grand jury. A decent prosecutor could get a ham sandwich indicted. Likewise, judges aren’t tough on warrants unless they believe the requester is on a ‘fishing expedition’ or the request is totally without merit,” said former police officer and corporate security director Iris Aquino.

When on Saturday morning President Trump’s tweeted that President Barack Obama had wiretapped Trump Tower in October 2016, the usual cabal of Democrats and news media outlets began their routine of casting doubts on Trump’s accusation. “It was as if they were saying ‘how dare you make outrageous allegations against Saint Barack,'” Aquino noted in a tongue-in-cheek quip.

Meanwhile, Ben Rhodes, the deputy national security adviser for Obama, told the news media over and over again that presidents can’t order a wiretap. He also cast doubts on the honesty of the new president.

Lynch made statements this week on a video and she’s heard encouraging protests and marches, blood in the streets and even death in order to stop and topple the Trump administration.

Senior intelligence sources said that embattled FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe openly professed his disgust for President Donald Trump at a senior staff meeting while loosing his cool demeanor in the process.

McCabe, the second in charge of the FBI, ranted at a staff meeting a week after Trump’s inauguration (approx Jan 27) about the newly sworn-in president, catching many FBI agents off guard with his anti-GOP vitriol.

At the meeting, when a subject came up dealing with a request of the FBI made by then-National Security Advisor Michael Flynn dealing with the National Sheriff’s Association, McCabe told the packed conference room: “I hate Trump.”

Flynn’s request for cooperation from McCabe and the FBI was likewise tabled, sources said. Flynn has since been sacked and was forced to resign largely due to the FBI’s conduct.
These additional troubling revelations about McCabe come a day after True Pundit exposed the deputy director as a partisan FBI agent apparently waging his own liberal-infused domestic political policy and who took part in secret meetings to derail Flynn and Trump. That in-depth story is here (http://truepundit.com/exclusive-fbis-own-political-terror-plot-deputy-director-and-fbi-brass-secretly-conspired-to-wage-coup-against-flynn-trump-2/).

Mere days before Gen. Michael Flynn was sacked as national security advisor, FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe gathered more than a dozen of his top FBI disciples to plot how to ruin Flynn’s aspiring political career and manufacture evidence to derail President Donald Trump, according to FBI sources.

McCabe, the second highest ranking FBI official, emphatically declared at the invite-only gathering with raised voice: “f*ck Flynn and then we f*ck Trump,” according to direct sources. Many of his top lieutenants applauded and cheered such rhetoric. A scattered few did not.

This was one of several such meetings held in seclusion among key FBI leaders since Trump was elected president, FBI sources confirm. At the congregation where McCabe went off the political rails and vowed to destroy Flynn and Trump, there were as many as 16 top FBI officials, inside intelligence sources said. No lower-level agents or support personnel were present.

This is quite interesting... of all people -

Former Acting CIA Director Michael Morell, who endorsed Hillary Clinton and called Donald Trump a dupe of Russia, cast doubt Wednesday night on allegations that members of the Trump campaign colluded with Russia. (http://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/clinton-ally-says-smoke-no-fire-no-russia-trump-collusion-n734176)

There's no little campfire, there's no little candle, there's no spark. And there's a lot of people looking for it.What is equally interesting is that NBC News appears to have broken the story.

I have the feeling some "agreements" have been reached as to how far much of this stuff will be taken "by both sides."

Also, it is considered highly likely that if Clinton had won, Micheal Morell would have become DCI.

I do believe that some on the 'darkside of midnight' are finding out that the more they keep beating this "dead horse", the more individuals that have been sitting back - not in full agreement of this warped agenda to take down Trump - will be gaining the muster to step forward and testify on what they personally know about what has been really going on behind the scenes.

Having said that, there are probably a number of "insiders" that are fed-up with being a part of the incidious & corrupt 'Dark-Side of Deep State' that will be stepping out of the woodwork to bring forth what they have been sitting on. Mike Morell is one such character that would not be too happy about this prospect (according to George Webb).

Anybody that has been paying attention to this Trump phenomenon knows quite well, by this time, that Trump, in being Trump, carries a certain charisma that affects other people in such a way as to want to follow his lead. And in particular, this would mean a willingness to want to help in his efforts of Draining the Swamp!

Anybody, that has worked within them thar shadows should know, by this time, that the longer they try to bring him down on this 'The Russians Did It' meme, the more alligators, crocks, and snakes will end up coming to the surface.

Mike Morell, I would think, knows this. And probably would like to put the lid back onto the 'Can of Worms' that they've now opened up. And, everyone knows - or at least, can imagine - how difficult it would be to put all those worms back in the can.

Enjoy your bag of popcorn as the show continues to move deeper into an ever thickening plot! Mike Morell will be one that is not enjoying the show, I can only imagine why he wouldn't...

JW Files Lawsuit on Obama’s Illegal Russia Leaks (http://www.judicialwatch.org/the-blog/jw-files-lawsuit-obamas-illegal-russia-leaks/)
MARCH 14, 2017
Using the IRS to harass political opponents is one thing. Getting the omnipresent apparatus of our spy agencies to target an incoming president is a threat several orders of magnitude greater.

In that regard, we have filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit against the Central Intelligence Agency, the United States Department of Justice and the Department of the Treasury regarding records related to the investigation of retired United States Army Lieutenant General Michael Flynn’s communications with Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak (Judicial Watch v. Central Intelligence Agency et al. (http://www.judicialwatch.org/document-archive/jw-v-cia-doj-treasury-complaint-00397/)(No.1:17-cv-00397)).

The National Security Agency refused (http://www.judicialwatch.org/document-archive/jw-v-cia-doj-treasury-00397-nsa-glomar/) to confirm or deny the existence of intelligence records about communications between Gen. Flynn and Amb. Kislyak.

We filed the lawsuit after the agencies failed to respond to our January 25, 2017, FOIA request seeking:

Any and all records regarding, concerning, or related to the investigation of retired Gen. Michael Flynn’s communications with Russian Ambassador to the United States Sergey Kislyak between October 1, 2016 and the present.
This request includes, but is not limited to, any and all related warrants, affidavits, declarations, or similar records regarding the aforementioned investigation.
For purposes of clarification, please find enclosed a CNN report regarding the investigation, which cites information that was provided to CNN by members of the Intelligence Community.
In our complaint we ask the court to order the agencies to search for all records responsive to our FOIA requests and demonstrate that the agency employed reasonable search methods; order the agencies to produce by a specific date all non-exempt records and a Vaughn index of all withheld records; and instruct the agencies to cease withholding all non-exempt records.

On January 23, 2017, CNN, among other media outlets, reported (http://www.cnn.com/2017/01/23/politics/flynn-russia-calls-investigation/) that the government was investigating Flynn, former national security adviser to President Trump:

The calls were captured by routine US eavesdropping targeting the Russian diplomats, according to the intelligence and law enforcement officials. But the officials said some of the content of the conversation raised enough potential concerns that investigators are still looking into the discussions, amid a broader concern about Russian intelligence-gathering activities in the United States.

The officials all stressed that so far there has been no determination of any wrongdoing.
FBI and intelligence officials briefed members of the Obama White House team before President Barack Obama left office about the Flynn calls to the Russian ambassador, sources said.

We then filed yet another related lawsuit this week, this one against the CIA only. Our lawsuit is a simple one, seeking an unclassified report assessing Russia’s interference in foreign elections (Judicial Watch v. Central Intelligence Agency (http://www.judicialwatch.org/document-archive/jw-v-cia-russia-election-interference-complaint-00414/) (No. 1:17-cv-00414)).

The CIA failed to respond to our December 14, 2016, FOIA request. (The agency’s response was due by January 24, 2017, at the latest.)

Here’s the background. On December 13, 2016, The Wall Street Journal (http://blogs.wsj.com/washwire/2016/12/13/gop-congressman-demands-white-house-release-report-on-russian-medling-in-elections/) reported that since 2015 Rep. Mike Turner (R-OH), a member of the House Intelligence Committee, “has been pushing for the unclassified version of a report assessing Moscow’s interference in foreign elections, particularly across Europe.” The Wall Street Journal further reports:

The White House already released a classified version of the assessment but Mr. Turner has been pushing for the unclassified version, which would be releasable to the public, he said. Mr. Turner sent the White House a letter … demanding for the unclassified version of the report.

“The fact that the administration is picking and choosing the information it releases and who they release it to ought to give everybody concern that the administration is manipulating this,” he said.

The report is critical for a better understanding of what Moscow is up to in elections overseas, he said. Mr. Turner said the Obama administration is cherry picking what it releases.
This report about Russia’s influence operations in Europe must not be helpful to the Obama anti-Trump Russia narrative – otherwise we wouldn’t have to sue in federal court to get it.

The illegal secrecy of the Obama administration’s anti-Trump Russia investigations must end.

And let me be clear: President Trump is on to something (http://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2017/03/10/dennis-kucinich-im-no-fan-trumps-but-hes-got-point-about-wiretapping.html). The Obama-connected wiretapping and illegal leaks of classified material concerning President Trump and General Flynn are a scandal.

We aim to get to the truth about these crimes, and we hope the Trump administration stands with us in the fight for transparency.

As I mentioned on television this week (see our appearances on Fox and Friends (http://video.foxnews.com/v/5353159655001/?#sp=show-clips) and The O’Reilly Factor (http://video.foxnews.com/v/5351353183001/?playlist_id=930909812001#sp=show-clips)), President Trump can get these documents out quickly. The permanent bureaucracies, or “deep state,” will obstruct but he can overcome this obstruction and finally enforce the transparency laws in the Executive Branch. If he does, it could lead to your JW uncovering another terrible abuse and potential crimes by the Obama administration.

Yes, Judicial Watch appears to be on the opposite side of the spectrum as the ACLU, especially during these recent times. Tom Fitton seems to be quite a forthright individual. I use to be a fan of the ACLU, but found that they are too politicized towards the left-side of the establishment / status quo spectrum. I remember during a part of my life that I had issues regarding the use & supposed mandatory requirement to provide an SSN for various reasons. And, rather quickly found that the ACLU refused to provide any help for any thing involviing the Social Security Number. They just say that its an issue that they don't see as being something that they want to spend time on.

Judicial Watch Sues DOJ for Records Relating To Tarmac
Meeting between then-Attorney General Loretta Lynch
and former President Bill Clinton in June 2016 (http://www.judicialwatch.org/press-room/press-releases/judicial-watch-sues-doj-records-relating-tarmac-meeting-attorney-general-loretta-lynch-former-president-bill-clinton-june-2016/)

http://www.judicialwatch.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/14721716270_8041a2f9b4_o-1.jpg

(Washington DC) – Judicial Watch announced today that it filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit against the Department of Justice for records related to the meeting held between then-Attorney General Loretta Lynch and former President Bill Clinton at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport in 2016 (Judicial Watch v. U.S. Department of Justice (http://www.judicialwatch.org/document-archive/jw-v-doj-clinton-lynch-meeting-complaint-00421/) (No. 1:17-cv-00421)).

Judicial Watch filed the lawsuit after the agency failed to respond to a June 29, 2016, FOIA request seeking:

All records and/or transcripts of a meeting held between Attorney General Loretta Lynch and former President Bill Clinton in June 2016.
All records of communication sent to or from officials in the Office of the Attorney General regarding the meeting held between Attorney General Loretta Lynch and former President Bill Clinton in June 2016.
All records of communication sent to or from officials in the Office of the Deputy Attorney General regarding the meeting held between Attorney General Loretta Lynch and former President Bill Clinton in June 2016.
All references to the meeting held between Attorney General Loretta Lynch and former President Bill Clinton contained in day planners, calendars and schedules in the Office of the Attorney General.

http://16004-presscdn-0-50.pagely.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/loretta-lynch-clinton-tarmac-575x323.jpg

Lynch met privately (http://www.abc15.com/news/region-phoenix-metro/central-phoenix/loretta-lynch-bill-clinton-meet-privately-in-phoenix) with former President Bill Clinton on board a parked plane. The meeting occurred during the then-ongoing investigation of Mrs. Clinton’s email server, and only a few days before she was interview by the FBI. Lynch later admitted that the meeting with Bill Clinton “cast a cloud (https://www.nytimes.com/live/attorney-general-loretta-lynch-testifies-before-congress/goodlatte-lays-into-clinton/)” over the Justice Department/FBI investigation. Not long afterward, FBI Director James Comey called Hillary Clinton’s actions “extremely careless” but did not recommend charges.

“The infamous tarmac meeting between President Clinton and AG Lynch is a vivid example of why many Americans believe the Obama administration’s criminal investigation into Hillary Clinton was rigged,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. “Now it will be up to Attorney General Sessions at the Trump Justice Department to finally shed some light on this subversion of justice.”

Judicial Watch requested (http://www.judicialwatch.org/press-room/press-releases/judicial-watch-asks-justice-inspector-general-investigate-loretta-lynch-bill-clinton-meeting/) the Justice Inspector General investigate the tarmac meeting.

In October, Judicial Watch filed a lawsuit (http://www.judicialwatch.org/press-room/press-releases/judicial-watch-files-lawsuit-fbi-records-clinton-email-investigation-tarmac-meeting-bill-clinton-loretta-lynch/) seeking FBI “302” documents, which are reports of FBI investigation interviews, from the FBI’s investigation into former Hillary Clinton’s email practices, related communications, and records regarding the June 2016, meeting between Lynch and former President Clinton. Documents in response this lawsuit are being regularly posted on the FBI website here (https://vault.fbi.gov/hillary-r.-clinton) (https://vault.fbi.gov/hillary-r.-clinton (https://vault.fbi.gov/hillary-r.-clinton)).

Trump’s Historic Chance to
Dismantle the Administrative State
(http://dailysignal.com/2017/03/06/trumps-historic-chance-to-dismantle-the-administrative-state/)
Sen. Mike Lee / @SenMikeLee
March 06, 2017

http://curezone.com/upload/_T_Forums/Turiya_Files_/AVALON/TRUMP/TRUMP_DECONSTRUCTION_OF_THE_ADMINISTRATIVE_STATE.p ng

Last month, the Senate voted to use the Congressional Review Act to undo an Obama-era regulation issued by the Interior Department.

In response, the director of the department’s Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement told Politico, “I believe there’s a good chance that […] a court will overturn Congress’ actions here as an unconstitutional usurpation of the executive branch’s powers.”

The constitutional illiteracy of this statement is simply breathtaking—and it would be funny, too, if it weren’t so prevalent within the federal government today.

How did this happen?

Article I of the U.S. Constitution begins, “All legislative power herein granted shall be vested in a Congress of the United States.” And Article II obligates the president and his executive branch to “take care that the laws be faithfully executed.”

And for more than the first hundred years of our republic, that is largely how it worked. Congress passed laws and the executive branch enforced them.

But in his first inaugural address, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt called for constitutional change. He claimed the Great Depression should be treated as an “emergency of war,” requiring a “temporary departure from the normal balance of public procedure.”

Unfortunately, our government has been not-so-temporarily departing from the normal balance of public procedure ever since.

But it wasn’t until Roosevelt died and President Harry Truman came to power that the government adopted a more systematic and codified framework that set the ground rules for America’s burgeoning administrative state. The cornerstone of this framework was the Administrative Procedures Act.

Under the Administrative Procedures Act, Congress could delegate broad lawmaking powers to executive branch agencies. To adjudicate this new and delicate sharing of lawmaking authority, the courts had the jurisdiction to review the propriety and scope of agency rule-making.

At the same time, in an effort to retain as much of its legislative authority as possible, Congress began inserting more and more “legislative veto” provisions into these otherwise broad grants of power.

This framework was not completely static over the next 40 years, but in the 1980s two Supreme Court cases fundamentally changed the balance of power between the branches: INS v. Chadha and Chevron U.S.A. v. Natural Resources Defense Council.

Taken together, these two cases caused a substantial transfer of power from the legislative and judicial branches to the executive branch. The result is an executive branch that has grown far too powerful and insulated from public control.

But there are three pieces of legislation that would go a long way toward reinvigorating the separation of powers at the heart of our constitutional system.

First, the Regulations from the Executive in Need of Scrutiny Act (REINS Act) would help restore the balance between the executive and legislative branches by requiring congressional approval for any new regulation that would have a major impact ($100 million or more) on the economy.

Second, the Separation of Powers Restoration Act would amend the Administrative Procedures Act and require judges hearing challenges to agency actions to review all relevant questions of law “de novo,” thereby ending the dysfunctional status quo that tilts the legal playing field in favor of federal bureaucracies.

Finally, the Agency Accountability Act would make federal agencies accountable again by directing most fines, fees, and unappropriated proceeds to the Treasury, instead of letting federal agencies keep and spend them as they see fit.

With President Donald Trump in the White House, elected on a promise to “drain the swamp,” we have a unique opportunity to pass all three of these bills.

Doing so would constitute a fundamental shift of power in this country—a transfer of power, to paraphrase Trump’s inaugural address, not merely from one party to another, but from Washington, D.C., back to the American people.

Mike Lee is a Republican senator from Utah.

drat.. I was hoping for a follow up from yesterday's posts on the Sara Carter/John Solomon investigations. I thought they were going to have more revelations last night. (I'm in a fairly decent mood this a.m. so I'm not going to the fox site to look myself, lol!)

The next revelation by Carter and Solomon on Hannity (2017-03-16) was... that the very Russian bank "reported to U.S. authorities that mysterious communications resumed "recently" between one of its computers and an e-mail server tied to Donald Trump's business empire, and it has developed evidence the new activity may be the work of a hacker trying to create a political ruse."

First of all it would be nice to know what "recently" may be.

This fits in very well with the Vault 7 "implications" (at least with regards to capabilities). Could someone with an agenda be attempting to "plant fake evidence?" Hummmmmm. Surely no actor associated with anything "U.S." could be doing anything like this as we here in the US do not do these types of things.

Anyways - The following is just my guess...

At this level of the game, moves are being made on a multi-player chess board and done so in a very "step-by-step" fashion where each step is leveraged in a way to suggest "there may be more to come... if needed" while simultaneously "back channel negotiations are occurring." What I am also guessing is being negotiated is something along the lines of... "you can choose the easy way, or the hard way (or somewhere in between)" but the fact is that outcomes will be achieved based on the goals of those who want these outcomes." I believe this is likely a high stakes game where, if any player in this multi-player game perceives themselves to be trapped in a corner and are unwilling to clean up their act, they may (if they have the capability) create significant world impacting events, some of which most of us would rather avoid.

I don't see "good guys vs bad guys" here. I see multiple players with their own goals and agendas who have various ways they can leverage their positions all playing their cards methodically and as carefully as they can.

For a nobody like me, a no impact observer (who wishes I could have been a player) I must accept that I am all and only a popcorn consumer. Thankfully I can release some of this frustration and pretend to myself I may be able to make at least a tiny bit of difference by posting on this forum (the only forum I now engage).

Thankfully I can release some of this frustration and pretend to myself I may be able to make at least a tiny bit of difference by posting on this forum (the only forum I now engage).

Being on this planet & residing in the position of "a no impact observer" may still have an effect on those that appear to be active participants. For there is the collective mind that we all actively participate in & contribute to. All human beings, to one degree or another, are able to consciously & unconsciously contribute & receive information that circulates within & without that realm of the human collective. Also known to be called Akasha (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akasha) or the Akashic Record (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akashic_records).

Some have called this the etheric body (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Etheric_body), or etheric plane, the "human energy field", The Fifth element (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Fifth_Element) (think Bruce Willis) - Aether (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aether_(classical_element)) (classical element).

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i86Ugyg3nfk

Although individuals vary in the degree to which they are able to connect with that level of consciousness (intuitive sense). Nonetheless, we are all able to receive, transmit & share various amounts of electromagnetic wave transmissions, whether we are consciously aware of it or not. In fact, this is the basis on which Clif High's Web Bot programs are based on - We all have access to future events - unconsciously this information comes out in word usage. It also lay as an undercurrent to the notion that there really are no coincidences in life. The Law of Attraction also aligns with this concept.

With that being said, this feeds into the understanding that political leaders may appear to be the leaders of the masses, they are in fact followers of what the collective mind is driving forth at any given moment of time. A keenly aware polititian (ha! ha! - are there any, really?) would be able to appear to be a step ahead of the collective masses of people, when actually they are able to perceive - pickup on - what large numbers of people may be collectively thinking.

With regard to Donald Trump, in that he is not really an aspiring politician like so many are... I would consider that he would be more inclined to be able to pickup on where the collective mind sits at in any given moment of time. I do believe that this gives him the added advantage of changing his mind on issues at any given moment of time - the MSM would label him a flip-flopper, making him appear politically incorrect in doing such a dastardly thing (your feet must always remain in concrete - in order to be a poliitically correct individual) - this, as we know, would not be bothering him much at all.

Right now, while being so preoccupied with fulfilling campaign promises during the first 100 days, this may cause him to be somewhat cognitively distant from what is presently occurring in the mass mindset. He would still, however, have moments of being unoccupied - during times of rest & deep sleep - whereby the collective thoughts swirling about the ethers would be accessible to him.

At any given moment of time, we all contribute to the collective mind. In this regard, we are all participants in what is taking place on this planet, whether we know it or not.

thx Turiya,

the floor plans thing makes it seem he's being threatened but I would have thought if they were going to threaten him they wouldn't have done it for the world to see...they knew this would make the news.... I'm not discounting the threat part but such a public threat, hmmm

I may be more inclined that someone wanted badly to see what they've got regarding the clinton emails which were also on the laptop perhaps regarding podesta/ pizzagate stuff...

whichever it is that female ss should be grilled in Guantanamo. so many are getting away with disrespecting the presidency it's incredible; and then the way the cop spoke to the news people 'this is really big' 'we don't have anyone on our side' or stupid things like that... no one connected to Intel is going out of their way to make the american people feel confident in their government, they're so full of agenda that how we feel just doesn't matter....

The machine was primed and ready to roll on day one to stamp out the alt media and step on the gas coming out of the last bend before the finishing strait.

They still see themselves as a pranged racing car with bits hanging off it but still going and close enough to the flag to limp home even if a few more bits fall off.

As I see it, their prime current objective is to visibly defeat Trump before the French go to vote for their new President. If Trump 'looks' defeated, the French will lose confidence in the idea of making a break from EU control. For that reason, I don't think Trump is in any danger of a bullet before that French election. After that date, all bets are off.

I don't see "good guys vs bad guys" here. I see multiple players with their own goals and agendas who have various ways they can leverage their positions all playing their cards methodically and as carefully as they can.

For a nobody like me, a no impact observer (who wishes I could have been a player) I must accept that I am all and only a popcorn consumer. Thankfully I can release some of this frustration and pretend to myself I may be able to make at least a tiny bit of difference by posting on this forum (the only forum I now engage).

Being on this planet & residing in the position of "a no impact observer" may still have an effect on those that appear to be active participants. For there is the collective mind that we all actively participate in & contribute to. All human beings, to one degree or another, are able to consciously & unconsciously contribute & receive information that circulates within & without that realm of the human collective. Also known to be called Akasha (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akasha) or the Akashic Record (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akashic_records).

Some have called this the etheric body (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Etheric_body), or etheric plane, the "human energy field", The Fifth element (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Fifth_Element) (think Bruce Willis) - Aether (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aether_(classical_element)) (classical element).

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i86Ugyg3nfk

Although individuals vary in the degree to which they are able to connect with that level of consciousness (intuitive sense). Nonetheless, we are all able to receive, transmit & share various amounts of electromagnetic wave transmissions, whether we are consciously aware of it or not. In fact, this is the basis on which Clif High's Web Bot programs are based on - We all have access to future events - unconsciously this information comes out in word usage. It also lay as an undercurrent to the notion that there really are no coincidences in life. The Law of Attraction also aligns with this concept.

With that being said, this feeds into the understanding that political leaders may appear to be the leaders of the masses, they are in fact followers of what the collective mind is driving forth at any given moment of time. A keenly aware polititian (ha! ha! - are there any, really?) would be able to appear to be a step ahead of the collective masses of people, when actually they are able to perceive - pickup on - what large numbers of people may be collectively thinking.

With regard to Donald Trump, in that he is not really an aspiring politician like so many are... I would consider that he would be more inclined to be able to pickup on where the collective mind sits at in any given moment of time. I do believe that this gives him the added advantage of changing his mind on issues at any given moment of time - the MSM would label him a flip-flopper - this, as we know, would not be bother him much at all.

Right now, while being so preoccupied with fulfilling campaign promises during the first 100 days, this may cause him to be somewhat cognitively distant from what is presently occurring in the mass mindset. He would still, however, have moments of being unoccupied - during times of rest & deep sleep - whereby the collective thoughts swirling about the ethers would be accessible to him.

At any given moment of time, we all contribute to the collective mind. In this regard, we are all participants in what is taking place on this planet, whether we know it or not.

Very nicely put Turiya. :clapping:

From Nuisance to Threat: The High Cost of Truth (http://www.paulcraigroberts.org/2017/03/16/nuisance-threat-high-cost-truth-paul-craig-roberts/)
— Paul Craig Roberts
March 16, 2017 | Categories: Articles & Columns

I am convinced that the US, and probably the entire Western world, that is, the American Empire, has entered an era in which respect for truth does not exist in public and private institutions. We have been watching this develop for some time. Think, for example, back to August 3, 2002, a recent time in terms of our present predicament, but a time prior to political consciousness of anyone younger today than 33 years old. In the summer of 2002, the world was being prepared by propaganda for a US invasion of Iraq. On August 3 of that year, the prestigeous British publication, The Economist, summed up the consensus of ruling opinion in two sentences: “The honest choices now are to give up and give in, or to remove Mr. Hussein before he gets his [nuclear] bomb. Painful as it is, our vote is for war.”

As Lewis Lapham, myself and others asked at the time, what bomb? The only evidence of a bomb was fabricated and known to be fabricated. The UN weapons inspectors concluded that the infamous Weapons of Mass Destruction were a creation of US propaganda. President George W. Bush eventually acknowledged that Iraq had no such weapons. US Secretary of State Colin Powell said that the lies he was deceived by the Bush regime into telling the UN about Saddam Hussein’s WMD are a stain on his career.

Despite the 2003 US invasion known to have been based entirely on lies, US troops were not pulled out of Iraq until 2011, and whether or not they were pulled out, they are back in Iraq now. None of these facts has had any impact on the good opinion that Washington and the media have of themselves.

Unchastened, Washington and its presstitutes lied about Libya and destroyed that prosperous country. They lied about “Assad’s use of chemical weapons against his own people,” and would have destroyed Syria also had it not been for the Russians.

Blocked by Russia, Obama, Hillary, and Victoria Nuland turned on Russia, first overthrowing the democratically elected government in Ukraine, and when Crimeans voted practically unanimously to reunite with Russia, the Obama regime and its media whores falsely alleged “Russian invasion of Ukraine.”

This false charge, repeated endlessly still today by the Western presstitutes, became the justification for economic sanctions against Russia that Washington imposed on its European vassals, entirely at their expense, which shows what craven cowards European governments are. If Washington orders “jump,” the UK Prime Minister, the German Chancellor, the French President ask, “How High?”

One of the reasons Donald Trump was elected president was his commitment to normalizing relations with Russia and reconsidering the continuation of NATO a quarter century after its purpose ceased to exist with the collapse of the Soviet Union. Trump’s commitment constituted a direct threat to the power and profit of the US military/security complex, whose $1,000 billion annual budget requires a major threat that only Russia can provide.

Consequently, Russia and its president have been demonized. American propaganda, bald-faced lies, spread fear of Russia and Putin throughout the American Empire. The Empire’s response to those who confront the propaganda with the facts is to denounce those with the facts as “Russian agents” or “Putin’s dupes.” The hatred of Russia that has been inculcated by the neocons and presstitute media has resulted in Republican Senator John McCain, representing Arizona (to the disgrace of Arizonians), calling on the Senate floor Republican Senator Rand Paul, representing Kentucky, a person who “is now working for Vladimir Putin” for objecting to tiny Montenegro being made a NATO member.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jpzfGr_Dzqg

When this website was included on a list of 200 Russian agent/dupe websites by a secret, undisclosed group called PropOrNot, I wondered whose money was behind this entity as well hidden as an offshore money laundering operation. I made a joke of it, which amused the Russians.

As no one knows what PropOrNot is, the site has no credibility. So the forces for war moved up several levels to Harvard University Library. On that website someone posted what is essentially the PropOrNot list. Harvard does not say that the list is vetted or explain why anyone should believe it. The list is attributed to a Melissa Zindars, an assistant professor of communication and media at some unnamed institution. It is a list, she says, that she uses in her class to teach students how to avoid “fake and false news.” In other words, the list reflects her own ignorance and biases.

As one reader observed, Melissa tells on her own indoctrination by the presstitute, CIA-serving US media:

“I read/watch/listen very widely, from mainstream, corporate owned sources (The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Boston Globe, The Wall Street Journal, Forbes) as well as The Atlantic, National Public Radio, and various local and alternative sources with different political perspectives (Truth-Out).”

So here we have the Western world informed by Harvard University Library of who is safe to read on the basis of an unknown young woman’s biases. Those safe to read are the lying presstitute media who serve the cause of war and the police state.

When you witness this level of total corruption at what pretends to be America’s finest university, and it is on top of the 24 years of nothing but lies from the previous three two-term presidents, who between them have murdered and dislocated millions of people in numerous countries, and not been held accountable for even one of the millons of lives destroyed, you cannot avoid realizing that for the United States and its corrupt vassal states, Truth is something to be avoided at all costs.

When Trump collapsed under pressure and fired his National Security Adviser, Gen. Flynn, he unintentionally gave credence to the charge that any and all who think well of normalized relations with the other major nuclear power are “Russian agents,” and that to be a “Russian agent” means that you are guilty of treason and deserve to be impeached if you happen to be the President of the United States.

The consequence of Flynn’s removal from office has been to enable the Russophobic forces to define as treason the desire for detente with Russia. If this had been imposed on US presidents during the First Cold War, probably life on earth would not exist today.

What is scary about the US and Europe is not merely the gullibility and insouciance of such a large percentage of the populations. What is very frightening is the willingness of the media, government officials, military, and members of professional organizations to lie for the sake of their careers. Try to find any shame among the liars that their lies expose humanity to thermo-nuclear annihiliation. It is not to be found. They don’t care. Just let me have the Mercedes and the McMansion for another year.

The Saker, an observant being, says that the color revolution being conducted by the neoconservatives, the Democratic Party, the presstitutes, the liberal/progressive/left, and by some Republicans against President Trump is “de-legitimizing the entire [democratic] political process which brought Trump to power and upon which the United States is built as a society.” http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/46658.htm (http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/46658.htm) The consequence, says The Saker, is that “the illusion of democracy and people power” has been destroyed both domestically and abroad. The propaganda picture of “American Democracy” has lost its believability. As the false picture crumbles, so does the power that was based on authority constructed by propaganda.

The Saker asks: do we face an endless horror or a horrible end?

As George Orwell said decades ago,

“In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.”

This is the way the criminals who rule us see it, and it is the way their whores in the media see it. If you tell the truth in America, you are a purveyor of fake news and possibly a traitor.

Lots of social programs getting cut now like Meals on Wheels, Americorps, Planned Parenthood ( of course ), slashing protection for the environment, consumer protection, all the kinds of attacks on the people and the planet that we can expect from any corporate political puppet.
I think perhaps TPTB realized that the Clintons, the pedophiles and Luciferians had gotten too out of hand and were going to get busted very messily anyway, knew that Big Pharma's vaccine industry was fated for an expose/overhaul, so they made it possible for Trump to get elected, but now are just proceeding with business as usual as quickly as they can.

Onawah, I can tell that you have never actually studied up on conservative principles much. You really should do that. Republicans, going all the way back to Thomas Jefferson and James Madison, believe in a very limited government with all the restrictions provided for in the Constitution itself.

All those programs you mention are socialism and there is no place for them in the Republic of the United States of America as our supreme law is laid out in the Constitution of the United States of America. You have to actually understand these documents and the philosophy of our founders to understand that no, cutting these programs is not what the globalist elites want. What they want is socialism, which is exactly what those programs you mentioned are. Think Communist China as the end goal for what they want to do to America. Those programs are a good start.

The federal government is not, and was never meant to be, your mother, father, babysitter, doctor, etc. etc. etc. Like I said, you really need to study the underlying political philosophy behind the traditional Republicanism of our founders. Trump is taking us back to a much simpler government that doesn't assume an authoritarian responsibility for taking care of you. Your state and local government/communities take care of you, or you take care of yourself, but you don't give that power to the feds because they will (and do) abuse it. Knowledge is power. Read up on the founding fathers' philosophy.

There was a more or less anonymous threat that the NYPD would release what they had if the FBI did not act within a week. That laptop was "stolen" after the week was up.

They now have plausible deniability for any of Hillary's dirt that gets leaked to the public or anyone else. See how that works?

The Trump/Russia stuff is obvious leftist propaganda. If they actually had something they would have acted on it while Obama was still in office. They know they had nothing and that's why they're even backtracking on the whole wiretapping story that they had already admitted.

Good point, A Voice from the Mountains. I like the way you think...

I have taken this previously as a 'warning shot across the bow' type of message to Trump, especially with the floor plans that were claimed by MSM to be contained within... In other words, "When in crisis mode & your family needs to exit Trump Tower, we (the Deep State) know where those emergency exits are!"

Have to reconnoiter over this...

There wasn't even a stolen laptop.

The point was to get it out into the media and put the pope and Clinton in the same story.

The part about the floorplans is something Trump would think of. It's only to get the media to talk about trump and something related to him that makes it look bad for him.
It's all just excuses to leek files.

It's also a way to communicate to Clinton, pope and others that **** is about to go down.

As if it were really all that simple!

The only reason to complicate things is to confuse and mislead people.

The philosophy of the founders was simple but nobody studies it anymore and it gets distorted. It's based on a very limited federal government.

If you think the government should take over all of your responsibilities and do everything for you and your family, I think that's an absolutely horrendous idea, but the Constitution says you have to take that up with the state government where you live. Because the US federal government was never given any authority under the Constitution to force everyone to buy healthcare, or to regulate public schools all across the nation or take care of all of the old and sick people or any of these other terrifying overreaches. Those things are what authoritarian Communist governments take upon themselves to do, and their track record explains why it's such a bad damn idea, in case you actually need the reasons explained in detail. There are many history books on it. That stuff (taking care of people) starts with you and your local community, not an authoritarian central power.

The Empire Should be
Placed on Suicide Watch (http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/46658.htm)

By The Saker

https://get.whotrades.com/u5/photoFA66/20781843124-0/blogpost.jpeg

In all the political drama taking place in the USA as a result of the attempted color revolution against Trump (http://www.unz.com/tsaker/a-color-revolution-is-under-way-in-the-united-states/), the bigger picture sometimes gets forgotten. And yet, this bigger picture is quite amazing, because if we look at it we will see irrefutable signs that the Empire in engaged in some bizarre slow motion of seppuku and the only mystery left is who, or what, will serve as the Empire’s kaishakunin (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kaishakunin) (assuming there will be one).

I would even argue that the Empire is pursuing a full-spectrum policy of self-destruction on several distinct levels, with each level contributing the overall sum total suicide. And when I refer to self-destructive behavior I don’t mean long-term issues such as the non-sustainability of the capitalist economic model or the social consequences of a society which not only is unable to differentiate right from wrong, but which now decrees that deviant behavior is healthy and normal. These are what I call “long term walls” into which we will, inevitably, crash, but which are comparatively further away than some “immediate walls”. Let me list a few of these:

Political suicide: the Neocons’ refusal to accept the election of Donald Trump has resulted in a massive campaign to de-legitimize him. What the Neocons clearly fail to see, or don’t care about, is that by de-legitimizing Trump they are also de-legitimizing the entire political process which brought Trump to power and upon which the United States are built as a society. As a direct result from this campaign, not only are millions of Americans becoming disgusted with the political system they were indoctrinated to believe in, but internationally the notion of “American democracy” is becoming a sad joke.

And just to make things worse, the US corporate media is finally showing its true face and now unapologetically shows the entire world that not only is it not in any way “fair” or “objective”, but that it is a 100% prostituted propaganda machine which faithfully serves the interests of the US “deep state”.

A key element of the quasi constant brainwashing of the average American has always been the regular holding of elections. Nevermind that, at least until now, the outcome of these elections made very little difference inside the USA and non at all outside, the goal was never to consult the people – the goal has always been to give the illusion of democracy and people power. Now that the Democrats say that the Russians rigged the elections and the Republicans say that it was the Democrats and their millions of dead voters who tried stealing it, it become rather obvious that these elections were always a joke, a pseudo-democratic “liturgy”, a brainwashing ritual – you name it – but never about anything real.

The emergence of the concept of 1% can be “credited” to the Obama Administration, since it was during Obama that the entire “Occupy Wall Street” movement took off, but the ultimate unmasking of the viciously evil true face of that 1% must be credited to Hillary with her truly historical confession in which she openly declared that those who oppose her are a “basket of deplorables”. We already knew, thanks to Victoria Nuland, what the AngloZionist leaders thought of the people of Europe, now we know what they think of the people of the USA: exactly the same thing.

The bottom line is this: I don’t think that the moral authority and political credibility of the USA have ever been lower than today. Decades of propaganda by Hollywood and the official US propaganda machine have now collapsed and nobody buys that counter-factual nonsense anymore.

Foreign policy suicide: let’s see what options there are to choose from. The Neocons want a war with Russia which the Trump people don’t. The Trump people, however, want, well maybe not a war, although that option is very much on the table, but at least a very serious confrontation with China, North Korea or Iran, and about half of them would also like some kind of confrontation with Russia. There is absolutely nobody, at least at the top, who would dare to suggest that a confrontation or, even worse, a war with China, Iran, North Korea or Russia would be a disaster, a calamity for the USA. In fact, serious people with impressive credentials and a lot of gravitas are discussing these possibilities as if they were real, as it the USA could in some sense prevail. This is laughable. Well, no, it it not. But it would be if it wasn’t so frightening and depressing. The truth is very, very different.

[Sidebar: While it is probably not impossible for the United States to prevail, in purely military terms, against the DPRK in a war, the potential risks are nothing short of immense. And I don’t mean the risk posed by the North Korean nukes which, apparently, is also quite real. I mean the risk of starting a war against a country which has Seoul within conventional artillery range, an active duty army of well over one million people and 180’000 special forces operators. Let us assume for a second that the DPRK has no air force and no navy and an army composed of only 1M+ soldiers, 21k+ artillery pieces and 180k special forces. How do you propose to deal with that threat? If you have an easy, obvious solution, you have watched too many Hollywood movies. You probably also don’t understand the terrain.]

But yes, the DPRK also has major wseaknesses and I cannot exclude that the North Korean armed forces would rapidly collapse under a sustained attack by the US and the ROK. I did not say that I believe that this would happen, only that I don’t exclude it. Should that happen, the US might well prevail relatively rapidly, at least in purely military terms. However, please keep in mind that any military operation has to serve a political goal and, in that sense, I cannot imagine any scenario under which the USA would walk away from a war against the DPRK with anything remotely resembling a real “victory”. There is a paraphrase of something Ho Chi Minh allegedly told to the French (https://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/quotes/h/hochiminh347067.html) in the 1940s which I really like. It goes like this:

https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/originals/a7/05/eb/a705ebf56f20eaef02140e0c8a814576.jpg

That is how a war with the DPRK would probably play out. I call this the “American curse”: Americans are very good at killing people, but they are not good at winning wars. Still, in the case of the DPRK there is at least a possibility of a military victory, even if at a potentially huge cost. With Iran, Russia or China there is no such possibility at all: a war with any of them would be a guaranteed disaster (I wrote about a war in Iran here (http://www.unz.com/tsaker/u-s-against-iran-a-war-of-apples-vs-oranges/) and about a war with Russia too many times to count). So why is it that even though out of the 4 possible wars, one is a potential disaster and the 3 others are a guaranteed disaster, why is it that these are discussed as if they were potential options?!

The reason for that can be found in the unique mix of crass ignorance and political cowardice of the entire US political class. First, a lot (most?) of US politicians believe in their own silly propaganda about the US armed forces being “the best” in “the world” (no evidence needed!). But even those who are smart enough to realize that this is a load of baloney which nobody outside the USA still takes seriously, they know that saying that publicly is political suicide. So they pretend, go along, and keep on repetitively spewing the patriotic mantra about “rah, rah, USA, USA, ‘Merica number one, we are the best” etc. Some figure that since the USA spends more on aggression that the rest of the planet combined, that must mean that the US armed forces must be “better” (whatever that means). To the birthplace of “bigger is better” the answer is self-evident. It is also completely wrong.

Eventually, something crazy inevitably happens. Like in Syria were the State Department had one policy, the Pentagon another and the CIA yet another one. The resulting cognitive dissonance is removed by engaging in classical doublethink: “yes, we screwed up over and over, but we are still the best”. Ironically, that kind of mindset is at the core of the American inability to learn from past mistakes. If the choice is between an honest evaluation of past operations and political expediency, the latter always prevails (at least amongst civilians, US servicemen are often far more capable of self-critical evaluation, especially in ranks up to Colonel and below, the problem here is that civilians and generals rarely listen to them).

The result is total chaos: the US foreign policy is wholly dependent on the US ability to threaten the use of military force, but the harsh reality is that every country out there which dared to defy Uncle Sam did that only after coming to the conclusion that the US did not have the means to crush it militarily. In other words, only the weak, which are already de-facto US colonies, fear the USA. Or, put differently, the only countries who dare to defy Uncle Sam are the strong ones (that was all quite predictable, but US politicians don’t know about Hegel or dialectics). And just to make it worse, there is no real US foreign policy. What there is is only the sum vector of the different foreign policies desired by various more or less covert “deep state” actors, agencies and individuals. That resulting “sum vector” is inevitably short-term, focuses on a quickfix approach, and unable to take into account any complexity.

As for the US “diplomacy” it simply doesn’t exist. You don’t need diplomats to deliver demands, bribes, ultimatums and threats. You don’t need educated people. Nor do you need people with any understanding of the “other”. All you need is one arrogant self-enamored bully and one interpreter (since US diplomats don’t speak the local languages either. And why would they?). We saw the most compelling evidence of the total rigor mortis of the US diplomatic corps when 51 US “diplomats” demanded that Obama bomb Syria (http://dailycaller.com/2016/06/16/more-than-50-us-diplomats-urge-obama-to-strike-syria-in-memo/). The rest of the world could just observe in amazement, sadness, bewilderment and total disgust.

https://www.franceculture.fr/s3/cruiser-production/2016/11/a875f1b1-02f9-44c6-b6d2-d67ed4ecf89e/600x337_000_ij4tj.jpg

The bottom line is this: there is no “US diplomacy”. The USA have simply let that entire field atrophy to the point were it ceased to exist. When so many baffled observers try to understand what the US policy in the Ukraine or Syria is, they are making a mistaken assumption – that there is a US foreign policy to being with. I would argue that the US diplomacy slowly and quietly passed away, sometime after James Baker (the last real US diplomat, and a brilliant one at that).

Military suicide: the US military was never a very impressive one, certainly not when compared to the British, Russian or German ones. But it did have a couple of very strong points including the ability to produce a lot of technical innovations which made it possible to produce new, sometimes quite revolutionary, weapons. And if the US track record on ground operations was rather modest, the US did prove to be a most capable adversary in naval and aerial warfare. I don’t think that it can be denied that for most of the years following WWII the USA had the most powerful and sophisticated navy and airforce in the world. Then, gradually, things started getting worse and worse as the costs of the very expensive ships and aircraft shot through the roof while the quality of the produced systems appeared to be gradually degrading. Weapons systems which looked nothing short of awesome in the lab and test grounds proved to be almost useless once they to to their end user on the battlefield. What happened? How did a country which produced the UH-1 Huey or the F-16 suddenly start producing Apaches and F-35s?! The explanation is painfully simple: corruption.

Not only did the US military industrial complex bloat beyond any reasonable size, it also cloaked itself in so many layers of secrecy that massive corruption became inevitable. And when I speak of “massive corruption” I am not talking about millions but billions or even trillions. How? Simple – the Pentagon claimed did not have the accounting tools needed to properly account for the missing money and that the money was therefore not really “missing”. Another trick – no bid contracts. Or contracts which cover all the private contractor’s costs, no matter how high or ridiculous. Desert Storm was a bonanza for the MIC, as was 9/11 and the GWOT. Billions of dollars got printed out of thin air, distributed (mostly under the cover of national security), hidden (secrecy) and stolen (by everybody in this entire food chain). The feeding frenzy was so extreme that one of my teachers as SAIS (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_H._Nitze_School_of_Advanced_International_Studies) admitted, off the record of course, that he had never seen a weapons system he did not like or which he did not want to purchase. This man, whom I shall not name, was a former director of the US Arms Control and Disarmament Agency. Yes, you read that right. He was in charge of DIS-armament. You can imagine what the folks in charge of armament (no “dis) were thinking…

Admiral William Fox Fallon

With the stratospheric rise of corruption, the kind of US general which had to be promoted went from fighting men who remembered Vietnam (where they often lost family members, relatives and friends) to ass-kissing little chickensh¡ts (https://tinyurl.com/5me29c)” like David Petraeus. In less than half a century US generals went from combat men, to managers, to politicians. And it is against this lackluster background that a rather unimpressive personality like General James Mattis can appear, at least to some, like a good candidate for Secretary of Defense.

Bottom line: the US armed forces are fantastically expensive and yet not particularly well-trained, well-equipped or well-commanded. And while they still are much more capable than the many European militaries (which are a joke), they are most definitely not the kind of armed forces needed to impose and maintain a world hegemony. The good news for the USA is that the US armed forces are more than adequate to defend the USA against any hypothetical attack. But as the backbone of the Empire – they are close to useless.

I could list many more types of suicides including an economic suicide, a social suicide, an educational suicide, a cultural suicide and, of course, a moral suicide. But others have already done that elsewhere, and much better than I could ever do myself. So all I will add here is one form of suicide which I believe the AngloZionist Empire has in common with the EU: a

“Suicide by reality denial (http://www.unz.com/tsaker/the-eus-suicide-by-reality-denial/)”: this is the mother and father of all the other forms of suicide – the stubborn refusal to look at reality and accept the fact that “the party is over”. When I see the grim determination of US politicians (very much including the people supporting Trump) to continue to pretend as if the US hegemony was here to stay forever, when I see how they see themselves as the leaders of the world and how they sincerely believe that they need to get involved in every conflict on the planet, I can only come to the conclusion that the inevitable collapse will be painful. To be fair, Trump himself clearly has moments of lucidity about this, for example when he recently declared to Congress

"Free nations are the best vehicle for expressing the will of the people — and America respects the right of all nations to chart their own path. My job is not to represent the world. My job is to represent the United States of America. But we know that America is better off, when there is less conflict — not more."
These are remarkable words for which Trump truly deserves a standing ovation as they are the closest thing to a formal admission that the United States have given up on the dream of being the World Hegemon and that from now on the US President will no longer represent the interest of trans-national plutocracies but he will represent the interests of the American people. This sort of language is nothing short of revolutionary, whether Trump truly delivers on that or not. Unlike everybody else, Trump does not appear to suffer from “suicide by reality denial” syndrome, but when I look at the people around him (nevermind the prostitutes in Congress) I wonder if he will ever get to act on his personal instincts.

Trump is clearly the best man in the Trump administration, he seems to have his heart in the right place and, unlike Hillary, he is clearly aware of the fact that the US armed forces are in a terrible shape. But a good heart and common sense are not enough to deal with the Neocons and the US deep state. You also need an iron will and a total determination to crush the opposition. Alas, so far Trump has failed to show either quality. Instead, Trump is trying to show how “tough” a guy he is by declaring that he will wipe out Daesh and by giving the Pentagon 30 days to come up with a plan to do this. Alas (for Trump), there is no way to crush Daesh without working with those who already have boots on the ground: the Iranians, the Russians and the Syrians. It is really that simple. And every American general knows that. Yet everybody is merrily plowing ahead is if there was some kind of possibility for the USA to crush Daesh without establishing a partnership with Russia, Iran and Syria first (Erdogan tried that. It did him no good. Now he is working with Russia and Iran). Will the good folks at the Pentagon find the courage to tell Trump that “no, Mr President, we cannot do that alone, we need the Russians, the Iranians and the Syrians”? I very much doubt it. So, yet again, we are probably going to see a case of reality denial, maybe not a suicidal one, but a significant one nonetheless. Not good.

Who will be the Empire’s kaishakunin?

Alexander Solzhenitsyn used to say that all states can be placed on a continuum which ranges from states whose authority is based on their power to states whose power is based on their authority. I think that we can agree that the authority of the USA is pretty close to zero. As for their power, it is still very substantial, but not sufficient to maintain the Empire. It is, however, more than adequate to protect the interests of the United States as a country provided the United States accept that they simply don’t have the means to remain a world hegemon.

If the Neocons succeed in their attempt to overthrow or, failing that, at paralyzing Trump, then the Empire will have the choice between an endless horror or a horrible end. Since the Neocons don’t really need a war with the DPRK, which they don’t like, but which does not elicit the kind of blind hatred Iran does, my guess is that Iran will be their number one target. Should the AngloZionists succeed in triggering a war between Iran and the Empire, then Iran will end up being the Empire’s kaishakunin. If the crazies fail in their manic attempts at triggering a major war, then the Empire will probably collapse under the pressure of the internal contradictions of the US society. Finally, if Trump and the American patriots who do not want to sacrifice their country for the sake of the Empire succeed in “draining the DC swamp” and finally crack-down hard on the Neocons then a gradual transition from Empire to major power is still possible. But the clock is running out fast.

As if it were really all that simple!

The only reason to complicate things is to confuse and mislead people.

The philosophy of the founders was simple but nobody studies it anymore and it gets distorted. It's based on a very limited federal government.

If you think the government should take over all of your responsibilities and do everything for you and your family, I think that's an absolutely horrendous idea, but the Constitution says you have to take that up with the state government where you live. Because the US federal government was never given any authority under the Constitution to force everyone to buy healthcare, or to regulate public schools all across the nation or take care of all of the old and sick people or any of these other terrifying overreaches. Those things are what authoritarian Communist governments take upon themselves to do, and their track record explains why it's such a bad damn idea, in case you actually need the reasons explained in detail. There are many history books on it. That stuff (taking care of people) starts with you and your local community, not an authoritarian central power.

Couple that with a fiat currency system to finance it all, controlled by a private central bank bent on world hegemony and a reserve currency backed only by blood and oil, and you have a recipe for bondage, enslavement, run-away inflation, and endless wars to prop it all up.

Yeah, most people don't fully appreciate it... but the Founders (direct product of Western Civilization Enlightenment) had a very good grasp of how to constitute a Free Republic. Unfortunately, most of us daft "citizens" don't understand the what/how/and why of those principals at all.

VFM or Turiya

I'm not getting where - there was no laptop stolen - is coming from?
I followed the link to 4 chan message board which I find confusing, but isn't that just someone's opinion, not a source?
Is it accepted knowledge which I just didn't know that the government can wipe info from any government laptop remotely?
thx

For me, after reading the comments on the 4chan page (http://boards.4chan.org/pol/thread/117139703/prehappening-white-house-false-flag), it reminded me to always be a bit skeptical of what is being immediately offered to you, especially if its by the MSM - in this case its a CBS News story (http://www.cbsnews.com/news/laptop-trump-clinton-information-stolen-secret-service/?ftag=CNM-00-10aac3a).

The OP of the 4chan page lays out certain points regarding this story:

>Secret Service laptop "stolen"
>information on Trump and Clinton
>"important files on Pope Francis"
>"considered a compromise of national security"
>all government devices able to wiped remotely
>so just wipe it
>Trump leak
>45D chessmaster
>God Emperor
>anons we are about to witness the biggest happening of all time
>globalists BTFO

A good question to ask in this case would be WHY(?) is the press telling you & the rest of the public certain things?

Few of the posted messages, in particular, are noticeably blaring to me:

1) - Important Laptop went missing and somehow we are told that there is really important stuff on it. How do they know or why do they want to tell us? Fishy story

2) >>117156014 (http://boards.4chan.org/pol/thread/117139703/prehappening-white-house-false-flag#p117156014)
- Yeah, I think that's the key. Why would they say "Hey, this is what is on that stolen laptop!"
- Unless you intended to send a message as to WHAT the contents were, you would NEVER announce what the contents were, because your hope would be that you would get it back BEFORE the person who stole it realized what they had.
- Unless you either (1) knew the person who stole it already knew what they had; or (2) wanted people to know "lol, this is out there in the wild now; checkmate!"

3) >>117139703 (OP) (http://boards.4chan.org/pol/thread/117139703/prehappening-white-house-false-flag#p117139703)
- Nah, it was probably just some idiot secret service agent, a womyn btw, meaning she was most likely Obongo's affirmitive action hire.
- Laptop can't be wiped remotely unless it's connected to the internet obviously.
- Laptop's hard drive is almost certainly encrypted and login password protected. Meaning the person who took it, can't do sh¡t with it, other than use it as a coffee coaster.

- The laptop is a cover story.
- Insiders are going to expose the Trump tower surveillance story through their media contacts. They're going to show that Trump was indeed under surveillance by GCHQ during the campaign, possibly that the White House ordered it.
- This laptop story is plant to confuse the issue.
- When the actual insider leaks come out, about the surveillance of Trump tower, investigation of Clinton emails, etc, the media will deliberately label these as being leaks from the "stolen laptop". They will place the blame for all such information on the Secret Service. As rumors fly in media circles about the surveillance, the deep state will say it's just information from the stolen laptop. They will deny the surveillance leaks, or Clinton leaks, as fake news construed from the laptop theft.
- This is all being done principally to save GCHQ and British intelligence face. Same with Spicer's apology saga.
- The Brits threw a fit and forced Spicer to back off because they already paid their due when their spy chief Hannigan was forced to resign. They don't want any more embarrassment, and the Whitehouse (Spicer) can't come back for another pound of flesh. (Not everyone in the White House has seen the same script on this one) Hence the apologies, the denials by everyone, now this latest leak.
- The Brits went in for more than they bargained for on this one. Bad luck old chap. Mucky business politics.

US President Donald Trump ignores repeated media prompts to shake hands with German Chancellor Angela Merkel during their meeting in the Oval Office.

Trump greeted Merkel with a handshake outside the building, but during their Oval Office photocall, apparently ignored the calls of the pool of reporters to shake the German leader’s hand.

UPDATE: Bombshell – Obama Illegally Spied on Sheriff Arpaio’s Prosecution (https://www.infowars.com/bombshell-obama-illegally-spied-on-sheriff-arpaios-prosecution/)

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Infowars.com have obtained credible information from law enforcement sources regarding individual records of U.S. citizens under National Security Agency (NSA) electronic surveillance in the years 2004 through 2010 – a database that suggests both Donald J. Trump and Alex Jones were under illegal, unauthorized government monitoring during those years.

Michael Zullo, formerly the commander and chief investigator of the Cold Case Posse (CCP), a special investigative group created in 2006 in the office of Joseph M. Arpaio, formerly the sheriff in Maricopa County, an Arizona State Certified Law Enforcement Agency, headquartered in Phoenix, Arizona, provided sections of the database to Infowars.com.
The electronic surveillance database, provided to Zullo by a whistleblower in 2013, was apparently created by the NSA as part of the NSA’s illegal and unconstitutional Project Dragnet electronic surveillance of U.S. citizens, first revealed (https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2015/12/dragnet-nsa-spying-survives-2015-review) by news reports (https://www.theguardian.com/world/interactive/2013/nov/01/snowden-nsa-files-surveillance-revelations-decoded) published in 2005, as further documented by the revelations of whistleblower Edward Snowden in 2013.
Sheriff Arpaio and Chief Investigator Zullo have identified dozens of entries at various addresses, including both Trump Tower in New York City and Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida, under which Donald Trump was apparently under NSA electronic surveillance from 2004, during President George W. Bush’s term of office, through 2009, the first year of President Obama’s presidency.

Electronic surveillance of Donald Trump was listed in the database for the following companies, locations, and dates:

Drudge Report has had the headline since yesterday, and Drudge gets millions of visitors a day.

It was Drudge who broke the Monica Lewinsky scandal in the 1990's, though he had the story up for 3 full days before the MSM was finally forced to break it.

In this case the corporate media has become so degraded they may just continue ignoring it indefinitely. We'll see I guess. Either way it won't go away, because Drudge and InfoWars are both hugely influential now, and get more viewers than MSM anyway altogether.

I'm sorry folks but I'm still confused. The 'evidence' that the white house handed over to congress just last friday to support trump's wiretap claims, has that been reviewed and discussed/debunked yet or not? Yesterday's proceedings just seemed too premature to have reviewed whatever could have been handed over friday.
I don't think so. I don't think that Trump has given them anything, yet.
Take a look at the Hannity video (above)... Sarah Carter comes on @ 9:00...
I hear judge Napolitano has been yanked from Fox News for saying British intel was involved with the surveillance...

Scotus Candidate Gorsuch tells Cruz he's certainly a FAN of Douglas Adams during today's questioning.. and recommends reading the book if one hasn't yet..

“Let me start with something lighter, and a topic on which I believe you have some familiarity,” noted Senator Cruz: “What is the answer to the ultimate question of life, the universe, and everything?”

The question prompted some laughter among the people in attendance. The Trump nominee simply replied, “42.”

The Texas Republican followed up by wondering, “Could you explain what it is to which we’re referencing?”

Gorsuch explained that he sometimes uses the question in his courtroom to “put [people] at ease.” He continued that “they all know the answer, and they all know the answer because they’ve all read Douglas Adams’s ‘Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy’.”

The Supreme Court nominee then gave the book a ringing endorsement: “If you haven’t read it, you should. It may be one of my daughter’s favorite books. And so, that’s a family joke.”

Cruz revealed that “it is a book that I’ve very much enjoyed as well.” He added that “it is, I think, a delightful example of the humanity of a judge that your record has demonstrated.”

George Soros Lashes Out:
‘Americans Must Fight Evil Trump’ (http://yournewswire.com/george-soros-americans-fight-trump/)

March 18, 2017
By Sean Adl-Tabatabai

Billionaire globalist George Soros has issued a scathing attack to Donald Trump, accusing him of being “evil” and urging the American public to rise up and “fight Trump”.

Despite the fact that numerous countries around the world are now investigating Soros (http://yournewswire.com/hungary-announces-george-soros-ban/) for his very public agenda to usurp Democratically elected governments (http://yournewswire.com/soros-take-down-trump/), the multi-billionaire penned an Op-ed for the New York Times recently explaining why Trump’s brand of ‘hate’ should not be tolerated…

When Hate Surges
Authored by George Soros via The New York Times (https://www.nytimes.com/2017/03/16/opinion/george-soros-when-hate-surges.html?smid=tw-share&_r=0),

President Trump has wasted no time in cracking down on immigration. He pledged to build a wall, hire 15,000 new Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Border Patrol agents and speedily deport millions of undocumented immigrants. He justified these actions by claiming that immigrants regularly flout the “rule of law and pose a threat.” In his first speech to Congress, he directed the Department of Homeland Security to create a new office — Victims of Immigration Crime Engagement, or Voice — dedicated to helping victims of crimes perpetrated by “removable aliens.”

I am an immigrant and an American citizen, and, as a philanthropist, have supported migrants all over the world for more than 30 years. Based on my experience and the facts, the president’s approach to immigrants is just wrong — and a new round of court injunctions against Mr. Trump’s latest proposed travel ban on people from six Muslim-majority countries suggests many in the federal judiciary agree. It does nothing to make America safer, while whipping up emotions against immigrants that have translated into an alarming surge in hate incidents all across our nation. My heart goes out to the victims of violence, whatever the source. But in the name of protecting the population from a relatively minor source of concern, he is branding all immigrants as criminals.

Contrary to Mr. Trump’s claims, immigrants commit significantly less crime than native-born citizens. This has been borne out in study after study, using a wide range of methodologies, dating back decades. According to the nonpartisan American Immigration Council, the percentage of the population that is foreign-born grew to 13.1 percent from 7.9 percent between 1990 and 2013. F.B.I. data shows that the violent crime rate dropped 48 percent during that time and today remains near historic lows. A recent study by the Journal on Ethnicity in Criminal Justice shows that immigrants actually drive down crime rates in the neighborhoods where they live.

But targeting immigrants and minorities with false and prejudicial rhetoric, as Mr. Trump has done during the campaign and in the early weeks of his presidency, has spurred a surge in hate acts against them. The Southern Poverty Law Center found that hate incidents reported in the first few weeks following Mr. Trump’s victory were at levels normally seen over a six-month period. No community appears safe from this rash of hate — with reports like school bullying against Muslim children, stories of Latinos being harassed on the street and told to “go back to your country,” attacks on blacks and gays, and the desecration of Jewish cemeteries. This is a country that prides itself on neighbors looking out for one another. In Donald Trump’s America, we are increasingly at one another’s throats.

As hate incidents surged after the election last fall, I announced a $10 million investment to provide legal and social services to victims of hate crimes, to encourage local organizations across the country to do the same and to propose improvements and new ideas. This week we opened our Hate Incident Database to monitor the scope and depth of hate incidents across the country.

Having survived the Nazi persecution of Jews in Hungary, I escaped from Soviet occupation at age 17 and made my way first to Britain and then to America. This is not the America that attracted me. I have seen the damage done when societies succumb to the fear of the “other.” And I will do all I can to help preserve the openness, inclusiveness and diversity that represent our greatest strength.

Demonizing immigrants weakens our country. Fighting against hate crimes makes us grow stronger together.

Nunes Confirms There Was "Incidental Surveillance" Of Trump During Obama Administration, "Seems To Be Inappropriate" (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-03-22/nunes-trump-transition-members-and-possibly-trump-himself-were-under-surveillance-du)

The US intelligence community "incidentally" collected information on members of President Trump's transition team, and potentially Trump himself, and the information was "widely disseminated" in intelligence reports, House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes told reporters on Wednesday.

Nunes ‘Unmasking’ Report Vindicates
Trump Claims on Surveillance (http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2017/03/22/nunes-unmasking-report-vindicates-trump-claims-surveillance/)

House Intelligence Committee chair Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA) announced on Wednesday that he had learned that members of President Donald Trump’s transition team had been under surveillance by the Obama administration, that individual names had been “unmasked” by the intelligence community, and that those names had been leaked to the media.
Nunes’s information — which he said he would deliver to the White House later — vindicates the bulk of Trump’s claims earlier this month.
Nunes said that while there was no direct “wiretap” by President Barack Obama of Trump Tower, there was indeed surveillance — perhaps collected incidentally — of people close to Trump, possibly including Trump himself.

“Hey look, in the meantime, I guess, I can’t be doing so badly, because I’m president, and you’re not. You know.”

“I’m a very instinctual person, but my instinct turns out to be right,” Trump told Time’s Washington bureau chief Michael Scherer in an interview conducted Wednesday and published Thursday morning. “I tend to be right. I’m an instinctual person, I happen to be a person that knows how life works.”
"When I said 'wire tapping,' it was in quotes."
On his unsubstantiated claim that 3 million undocumented immigrants voted illegally, Trump said he would be proved right eventually, though he hinted that he no longer stood by all parts of that claim: "When I say that, mostly they register wrong. In other words, for the votes, they register incorrectly, and/ or illegally. I'm forming a committee on it."
On Sweden: "I was right about that."

at the U.S. Capitol on March 15, 2017, in Washington, D.C. (Mark Wilson/Getty Images)

By Larry Klayman (http://www.newsmax.com/Insiders/LarryKlayman/id-433)
Sunday, 19 Mar 2017 01:04 PM
The old expression about Washington, D.C., is that if you want a friend, get a dog! In the case of President Donald Trump, this is a lesson he has undoubtedly learned in his thus far short tenure as the commander in chief. Nowhere is this seen more than over the current controversy concerning the president’s claims that he was wiretapped, that is, illegally spied upon, by his predecessor’s administration, former President Barack Obama.

As I have written in this Newsmax blog and elsewhere particularly of late, my client, former NSA and CIA contractor Dennis Montgomery, holds the keys to disproving the false claims of those representatives and senators on the House and Senate intelligence committees, reportedly as well as FBI Director James Comey, that there is no evidence that the president and his men were wiretapped.

Montgomery left the NSA and CIA with 47 hard drives and over 600 million pages of information, much of which is classified, and sought to come forward legally as a whistleblower to appropriate government entities, including congressional intelligence committees, to expose that the spy agencies were engaged for years in systematic illegal surveillance on prominent Americans, including the chief justice of the Supreme Court, other justices, 156 judges, prominent businessmen such as Donald Trump, and even yours truly. Working side by side with Obama's former Director of National Intelligence (DIA), James Clapper, and Obama's former Director of the CIA, John Brennan, Montgomery witnessed “up close and personal” this “Orwellian Big Brother” intrusion on privacy, likely for potential coercion, blackmail or other nefarious purposes.

But when Montgomery came forward as a whistleblower to congressional intelligence committees and various other congressmen and senators, including Senator Charles Grassley, Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, who, like Comey, once had a reputation for integrity, he was “blown off;” no one wanted to even hear what he had to say. The reason, I suspect, is that Montgomery’s allegations were either too hot to handle, or the congressional intelligence and judiciary committees already knew that this unconstitutional surveillance was being undertaken. Moreover, given the power of the NSA, CIA, and DNI, for congressional committee heads to take action to legitimately and seriously investigate and if necessary recommend prosecution of officials like Clapper and Brennan could, given the way Washington works, result in the spy agencies disclosing and leaking (as occurred recently with General Michael Flynn), the details of their mass surveillance, ruining the careers if not personal lives of any politician who would take them on.

After Montgomery was turned away as a whistleblower, he came to me at Freedom Watch. With the aid of the Honorable Royce C. Lamberth of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, who I had come to respect and trust over the years of my public interest advocacy, we brought Montgomery forward to FBI Director James Comey, through his General Counsel James Baker. Under grants of immunity, which I obtained through Assistant U.S. Attorney Deborah Curtis, Montgomery produced the hard drives and later was interviewed under oath in a secure room at the FBI Field Office in the District of Columbia. There he laid out how persons like then-businessman Donald Trump were illegally spied upon by Clapper, Brennan, and the spy agencies of the Obama administration. He even claimed that these spy agencies had manipulated voting in Florida during the 2008 presidential election, which illegal tampering resulted in helping Obama to win the White House.

This interview, conducted and videoed by Special FBI Agents Walter Giardina and William Barnett, occurred almost two years ago, and nothing that I know of has happened since. It would appear that the FBI’s investigation was buried by Comey, perhaps because the FBI itself collaborates with the spy agencies to conduct illegal surveillance. In landmark court cases which I filed after the revelations of Edward Snowden, the Honorable Richard Leon, a colleague of Judge Lamberth, had ruled that this type of surveillance constituted a gross violation of the Fourth Amendment to the Constitution. (See www.freedomwatchusa.org (http://www.freedomwatchusa.org) for more information.)

A few months ago, given FBI’s seeming inaction in conducting a bona fide timely investigation of the treasure trove of information Montgomery had produced and testified to, I went to Chairman Bob Goodlatte of the House Judiciary Committee, as I had done earlier with Senator Grassley, since Montgomery had revealed that judges had been spied upon, and asked his staff to inquire of Director Comey the status of the investigation. I have heard nothing back from Goodlatte or his staff and they have not responded to recent calls and emails.

So last Thursday, I traveled to Capital Hill to personally meet with Chairman Devin Nunes (R-Ca.) of the House Intelligence Committee and, when his scheduler claimed that he was “unavailable,” forcefully pushed for a meeting with one of his committee lawyers, Allen R. Souza, and fully briefed him about Montgomery and the FBI’s apparent cover-up. I told this staff intel lawyer to inform Chairman Nunes of the facts behind this apparent cover-up before the committee holds its hearing on the alleged Trump wiretaps and questions Comey this Monday, March 20, in open session. My expressed purpose: to have Chairman Nunes of the House Intelligence Committee ask Comey, under oath, why he and his FBI have seemingly not moved forward with the Montgomery investigation.

During my meeting with House Intelligence Committee counsel Allen R. Sousa I politely warned him that if Chairman Nunes, who himself had that same day undercut President Trump by also claiming that there is no evidence of surveillance by the Obama administration, I would go public with what would appear to be the House Intelligence Committee’s complicity in keeping the truth from the American people and allowing the FBI to continue its apparent cover-up of the Montgomery “investigation.”

And, that is where it stands today. The big question: will House Intelligence Committee Chairman Nunes do his job and hold FBI Director Comey’s feet to the fire about the Montgomery investigation?

Please watch the House Intelligence Committee hearing closely this [PAST] Monday.

The far left group Fight for the Future (https://www.fightforthefuture.org/ateams/) is offering $15,000 to activists who are willing to quit their jobs and work full time to defeat Donald Trump.

Fight for the Future (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fight_for_the_Future) is funded by Media Democracy Fund (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Media_Democracy_Fund) – a George Soros group.

The Washington Examiner (http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/15000-a-month-offered-to-a-teams-to-fight-trump-agenda/article/2617909#%21) reported:

A group known for its successes fighting digital wars, notably net neutrality, is offering $15,000 to activists who quit their jobs and form “A-Teams” to jump into a war on President Trump’s agenda.

Fight for the Future (https://www.fightforthefuture.org/ateams/), started in 2011 as a digital activist group, on Monday issued the offer with this eye-catching opening: “Terrified about Trump? Quit your job, start an A-Team. We’ll fund it.”

“We’re currently taking applications for an initial launch of the project, and will be providing a few select teams with funding, guidance, and support,” said Evan Greer, campaign director for Fight for the Future.

“Our goal is to spawn a movement of small, dedicated, groups of people using the tactics that we’ve used effectively to defend Internet freedom to win major victories in other issue areas affecting our basic rights and freedoms, such as immigration, freedom of press, police brutality, drug reform, and government corruption,” she added.

BOMBSHELL: CIA Whistleblower Leaked Proof
Trump Under "Systematic Illegal" Surveillance
Over Two Years Ago: FBI Sat On It (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-03-22/bombshell-cia-whistleblower-leaked-proof-trump-under-systematic-illegal-government-s)
http://www.zerohedge.com/sites/default/files/pictures/picture-5.jpgby Tyler Durden
Mar 22, 2017 10:37 PM
The same day House Intelligence Committee chairman Devin Nunes gave a press conference disclosing that President Trump had been under "incidental surveillance (http://ibankcoin.com/flyblog/2017/03/22/4d-chess-alert-rep-nunes-confirms-trump-transition-team-incidental-sureveillance/)," Attorney and FreedomWatch Chairman, Larry Klayman, sent a letter to the House Committee on Intelligence imploring them to pursue the claims and evidence presented under oath at a Washington DC FBI Field Office by his client - CIA / NSA Whistleblower Dennis Montgomery - who Klayman claims "holds the keys to disproving the false claims... ...that there is no evidence that the president and his men were wiretapped"

When Montgomery attempted to deliver this information through the appropriate channels two years ago, the former CIA and NSA contractor wasn't given the time of day:
[W]hen Montgomery came forward as a whistleblower to congressional intelligence committees and various other congressmen and senators, including Senator Charles Grassley, Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, who, like Comey, once had a reputation for integrity, he was “blown off;” no one wanted to even hear what he had to say.
As a result, Montgomery went to attorney and FreedomWatch founder Larry Klayman - who then approached the FBI:
Under grants of immunity, which I obtained through Assistant U.S. Attorney Deborah Curtis, Montgomery produced the hard drives and later was interviewed under oath in a secure room at the FBI Field Office in the District of Columbia. There he laid out how persons like then-businessman Donald Trump were illegally spied upon by Clapper, Brennan, and the spy agencies of the Obama administration.

Montgomery left the NSA and CIA with 47 hard drives and over 600 million pages of information, much of which is classified, and sought to come forward legally as a whistleblower to appropriate government entities, including congressional intelligence committees, to expose that the spy agencies were engaged for years in systematic illegal surveillance on prominent Americans, including the chief justice of the Supreme Court, other justices, 156 judges, prominent businessmen such as Donald Trump, and even yours truly. Working side by side with Obama's former Director of National Intelligence (DIA), James Clapper, and Obama's former Director of the CIA, John Brennan, Montgomery witnessed “up close and personal” this “Orwellian Big Brother” intrusion on privacy, likely for potential coercion, blackmail or other nefarious purposes.

He even claimed that these spy agencies had manipulated voting in Florida during the 2008 presidential election, which illegal tampering resulted in helping Obama to win the White House.
Given the fact that the FBI had Montgomery's testimony and evidence for over two years, Klayman traveled to Washington DC last Thursday to meet with Committee Chairman Devin Nunes in the hopes that he would ask FBI Director Comey why the FBI hadn't pursued Montgomery's evidence. When Klayman arrived to speak with Nunes, he was "blown off" and instead shared his information with committee attorney Allen R. Souza - who Klayman requested in turn brief Nunes on the situation.
During my meeting with House Intelligence Committee counsel Allen R. Sousa I politely warned him that if Chairman Nunes, who himself had that same day undercut President Trump by also claiming that there is no evidence of surveillance by the Obama administration, I would go public with what would appear to be the House Intelligence Committee’s complicity in keeping the truth from the American people and allowing the FBI to continue its apparent cover-up of the Montgomery “investigation.”

And, that is where it stands today. The big question: will House Intelligence Committee Chairman Nunes do his job and hold FBI Director Comey’s feet to the fire about the Montgomery investigation?
Klayman has detailed all of this in a NewsMax article (http://www.newsmax.com/LarryKlayman/chariman-nunes-fbi-james-comey-montgomery-whitsleblower/2017/03/19/id/779551/), followed up with an official letter (http://www.freedomwatchusa.org/pdf/170321-Final%20Whistleblower%20Letter.pdf) to Chairman Nunes today, requesting that he question Comey on Montgomery's evidence. Perhaps this explains Nunes' impromptu press conference today admitting that Trump's team was under "Incidental Surveillance (http://ibankcoin.com/flyblog/2017/03/22/4d-chess-alert-rep-nunes-confirms-trump-transition-team-incidental-sureveillance/)" before making his way to the White House to discuss with the President.

So - we know that evidence exists from a CIA / NSA contractor turned whistleblower, detailing a massive spy operation on 156 judges, the Supreme Court, and high profile Americans including Donald Trump. See the letter below:

NSA Whistleblower Says NSA Spied
On Congress, The Supreme Court And Trump
Chris Menahan
InformationLiberation (http://www.informationliberation.com/?id=56482)
Mar. 25, 2017

https://www.informationliberation.com/files/binney-tucker-carlson-spying-nsa.jpg
NSA whistleblower William Binney told Tucker Carlson on Friday that the NSA is spying on "all the members of the Supreme Court, the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Congress, both House and Senate, as well as the White House."

Binney, who served the NSA for 30 years before blowing the whistle on domestic spying in 2001, told Tucker he firmly believes that Trump was spied on.

"They're taking in fundamentally the entire fiber network inside the United States and collecting all that data and storing it, in a program they call Stellar Wind," Binney said.

"That's the domestic collection of data on US citizens, US citizens to other US citizens," he said. "Everything we're doing, phone calls, emails and then financial transactions, credit cards, things like that, all of it."

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lkChOSdOgcc
"Inside NSA there are a set of people who are -- and we got this from another NSA whistleblower who witnessed some of this -- they're inside there, they are targeting and looking at all the members of the Supreme Court, the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Congress, both House and Senate, as well as the White House," Binney said.

"And all this data is inside the NSA in a small group where they're looking at it. The idea is to see what people in power over you are going to -- what they think, what they think you should be doing or planning to do to you, your budget, or whatever so you can try to counteract before it actually happens," he said.

"I mean, that's just East German," Tucker responded.

Rather than help prevent terrorist attacks, Binney said collecting so much information actually makes stopping attacks more difficult.

"This bulk acquisition is inhibiting their ability to detect terrorist threats in advance so they can't stop them so people get killed as a result," he said. "Which means, you know, they pick up the pieces and blood after the attack. That's what's been going on. I mean they've consistently failed. When Alexander said they'd stop 54 attacks and he was challenged to produce the evidence to prove that he failed on every count."

Possible fake news but the newspaper is respectable

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/donald-trump-angela-merkel-nato-bill-defence-ignore-usa-germany-spending-a7650636.html

Donald Trump printed out made-up £300bn Nato invoice and handed it to Angela Merkel

Angela Merkel will reportedly ignore Donald Trump’s attempts to extricate £300bn from Germany for what he deems to be owed contributions to Nato.

The US President is said to have had an “invoice” printed out outlining the sum estimated by his aides as covering Germany’s unpaid contributions for defence.

Said to be presented during private talks in Washington, the move has been met with criticism from German and Nato officials.

While the figure presented to the Germans was not revealed by either side, Nato countries pledged in 2014 to spend two per cent of their GDP on defence, something only a handful of nations – including the UK, Greece, Poland and Estonia – currently do.

But the bill has been backdated even further to 2002, the year Mrs Merkel’s predecessor, Gerhard Schröder, pledged to spend more on defence.

Mr Trump reportedly instructed aides to calculate how much German spending fell below two per cent over the past 12 years, then added interest.

Estimates suggest the total came to £300bn, with official figures citing the shortfall to be around £250bn plus £50bn in interest added on.

The Times quoted a German government minister as saying the move was “outrageous”.

The unnamed minister said: “The concept behind putting out such demands is to intimidate the other side, but the Chancellor took it calmly and will not respond to such provocations.”

And the paper quoted a source close to Mrs Merkel saying she has “ignored the provocation”.

The bill follows a disastrous meeting between the pair earlier this month, characterised by Mr Trump’s refusal to shake his peer’s hand.

The controversial orders Donald Trump has already issued
8
show all
A day after the meeting, Mr Trump tweeted: “Despite what you have heard from the FAKE NEWS, I had a GREAT meeting with the Chancellor Angela Merkel.

“Nevertheless, Germany owes ... vast sums of money to NATO & the United States must be paid more for the powerful, and very expensive, defense it provides to Germany!”

In response to the claims, German defence minister Ursula Von der Leyen rejected the notion the European nation owed the US or Nato.

So President Trump might have been “wiretapped” by Obama, as he claimed, but unfortunately he will not draw the right conclusions from the violation. He will not see runaway spying on Americans as a grotesque attack on American values. That is unfortunate, because this could have provided a great teaching moment for the president.

Written by Ron Paul (http://ronpaulinstitute.org/archives/featured-articles/?author=Ron+Paul)
Monday March 27, 2017

http://www.ronpaulinstitute.org/media/119308/rp-weekly-button.jpg?width=450&height=185

There was high drama last week when Rep. Devin Nunes announced at the White House that he had seen evidence that the communications of the Donald Trump campaign people, and perhaps even Trump himself, had been “incidentally collected” by the US government.

If true, this means that someone authorized the monitoring of Trump campaign communications using Section 702 of the FISA Act. Could it have been then-President Obama? We don’t know. Could it have been other political enemies looking for something to harm the Trump campaign or presidency? It is possible.

There is much we do not yet know about what happened and there is probably quite a bit we will never know. But we do know several very important things about the government spying on Americans.

First there is Section 702 itself. The provision was passed in 2008 as part of a package of amendments to the 1978 FISA bill. As with the PATRIOT Act, we were told that we had to give the government more power to spy on us so that it could catch terrorists. We had to give up some of our liberty for promises of more security, we were told. We were also told that the government would only spy on the bad guys, and that if we had nothing to hide we should have nothing to fear.

We found out five years later from Edward Snowden that the US government viewed Section 702 as a green light for the mass surveillance of Americans. Through programs he revealed, like PRISM, the NSA is able to collect and store our Internet search history, the content of our emails, what files we have shared, who we have chatted with electronically, and more.

That’s why people like NSA whistleblower William Binney said that we know the NSA was spying on Trump because it spies on all of us!

Ironically, FISA itself was passed after the Church Committee Hearings revealed the abuses, criminality, and violations of our privacy that the CIA and other intelligence agencies had been committing for years. FISA was supposed to rein in the intelligence community but, as is often the case in Washington, it did the opposite: it ended up giving the government even more power to spy on us.

So President Trump might have been “wiretapped” by Obama, as he claimed, but unfortunately he will not draw the right conclusions from the violation. He will not see runaway spying on Americans as a grotesque attack on American values. That is unfortunate, because this could have provided a great teaching moment for the president. Seeing how all of us are vulnerable to this kind of government abuse, President Trump could have changed his tune on the PATRIOT Act and all government attacks on our privacy. He could have stood up for liberty, which is really what makes America great.

Section 702 of the FISA Act was renewed in 2012, just before we learned from Snowden how it is abused. It is set to expire this December unless Congress extends it again. Knowing what we now know about this anti-American legislation we must work hard to prevent its renewal. They will try to scare us into supporting the provision, but the loss of our liberty is what should scare us the most!

“Any fool can tell a crisis when it arrives. The real service to the state is to detect it in embryo.” – Isaac Asimov, Foundation (https://www.amazon.com/Foundation-Trilogy-Isaac-Asimov/dp/0307292061/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=789693348822eb1ce5483249f2ae4b2c&creativeASIN=0307292061)I read Isaac Asimov’s renowned award winning science fiction trilogy four decades ago as a teenager. I read them because I liked science fiction novels, not because I was trying to understand the correlation to the fall of the Roman Empire. The books that came to be called the Foundation Trilogy (https://www.amazon.com/Foundation-Trilogy-Isaac-Asimov/dp/0307292061/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=789693348822eb1ce5483249f2ae4b2c&creativeASIN=0307292061) (Foundation, Foundation and Empire, and Second Foundation) were not written as novels; they’re the collected Foundation stories Asimov wrote between 1941 and 1950. He wrote these stories during the final stages of our last Fourth Turning (https://www.amazon.com/Fourth-Turning-American-Prophecy-Rendezvous/dp/0767900464/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=ea5733609f1dcee0d0971eb4338f041f&creativeASIN=0767900464) Crisis and the beginning stages of the next High. This was the same time frame in which Tolkien wrote the Lord of the Rings Trilogy (https://www.amazon.com/Lord-Rings-50th-Anniversary-Vol/dp/0618640150/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=4617f79dcd28157b05befffc5fcb3945&creativeASIN=0618640150) and Orwell wrote 1984 (https://www.amazon.com/1984-George-Orwell/dp/1328869334/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=e5a80e856db5f9639e1d49e90fb3c8b3&creativeASIN=1328869334). This was not a coincidence.

The tone of foreboding, danger, dread, and impending doom, along with unending warfare, propels all of these novels because they were all written during the bloodiest and most perilous portion of the last Fourth Turning (https://www.amazon.com/Fourth-Turning-American-Prophecy-Rendezvous/dp/0767900464/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=ea5733609f1dcee0d0971eb4338f041f&creativeASIN=0767900464). As the linear thinking establishment continues to be blindsided by the continued deterioration of the economic, political, social, and cultural conditions in the world, we have entered the most treacherous phase of our present Fourth Turning (https://www.amazon.com/Fourth-Turning-American-Prophecy-Rendezvous/dp/0767900464/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=ea5733609f1dcee0d0971eb4338f041f&creativeASIN=0767900464).

That ominous mood engulfing the world is not a new dynamic, but a cyclical event arriving every 80 or so years. Eight decades ago the world was on the verge of a world war which would kill 65 million people. Eight decades prior to 1937 the country was on the verge of a Civil War which would kill almost 5% of the male population. Eight decades prior to 1857 the American Revolution had just begun and would last six more bloody years. None of this is a coincidence. The generational configuration repeats itself every eighty years, driving the mood change which leads to revolutionary change and the destruction of the existing social order.

Isaac Asimov certainly didn’t foresee his Foundation stories representing the decline of an American Empire that didn’t yet exist. The work that inspired Asimov was Edward Gibbon’s multi-volume series, The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire (https://www.amazon.com/Decline-Fall-Roman-Empire/dp/0753818817/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=3c142cd092ea459ccc0bb368e23d48a7&creativeASIN=0753818817), published between 1776 and 1789. Gibbon saw Rome’s fall not as a consequence of specific, dramatic events, but as the result of the gradual decline of civic virtue, monetary debasement and rise of Christianity, which made the Romans less vested in worldly affairs.

Gibbon’s tome reflects the same generational theory espoused by Strauss and Howe in The Fourth Turning (https://www.amazon.com/Fourth-Turning-American-Prophecy-Rendezvous/dp/0767900464/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=ea5733609f1dcee0d0971eb4338f041f&creativeASIN=0767900464). Gibbon’s conclusion was human nature never changes, and mankind’s penchant for division, amplified by environmental and cultural differences, is what governs the cyclical nature of history. Gibbon constructs a narrative spanning centuries as events unfold and emperors’ successes and failures occur within the context of a relentless decline of empire. The specific events and behaviors of individual emperors were inconsequential within the larger framework and pattern of historical decline. History plods relentlessly onward, driven by the law of large numbers.

Asimov described his inspiration for the novels:

“I wanted to consider essentially the science of psychohistory, something I made up myself. It was, in a sense, the struggle between free will and determinism. On the other hand, I wanted to do a story on the analogy of The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, but on the much larger scale of the galaxy. To do that, I took over the aura of the Roman Empire and wrote it very large. The social system, then, is very much like the Roman imperial system, but that was just my skeleton.

It seemed to me that if we did have a galactic empire, there would be so many human beings—quintillions of them—that perhaps you might be able to predict very accurately how societies would behave, even though you couldn’t predict how individuals composing those societies would behave. So, against the background of the Roman Empire written large, I invented the science of psychohistory. Throughout the entire trilogy, then, there are the opposing forces of individual desire and that dead hand of social inevitability.”

Is History Pre-Determined?

“Don’t you see? It’s Galaxy-wide. It’s a worship of the past. It’s a deterioration – a stagnation!” – Isaac Asimov, Foundation (https://www.amazon.com/Foundation-Trilogy-Isaac-Asimov/dp/0307292061/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=789693348822eb1ce5483249f2ae4b2c&creativeASIN=0307292061)

“It has been my philosophy of life that difficulties vanish when faced boldly.” – Isaac Asimov, Foundation (https://www.amazon.com/Foundation-Trilogy-Isaac-Asimov/dp/0307292061/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=789693348822eb1ce5483249f2ae4b2c&creativeASIN=0307292061)The Foundation trilogy opens on Trantor, the capital of the 12,000-year-old Galactic Empire. Though the empire appears stable and powerful, it is slowly decaying in ways that parallel the decline of the Western Roman Empire. Hari Seldon, a mathematician and psychologist, has developed psychohistory, a new field of science that equates all possibilities in large societies to mathematics, allowing for the prediction of future events.

Psychohistory is a blend of crowd psychology and high-level math. An able psychohistorian can predict the long-term aggregate behavior of billions of people many years in the future. However, it only works with large groups. Psychohistory is almost useless for predicting the behavior of an individual. Also, it’s no good if the group being analyzed is aware it’s being analyzed — because if it’s aware, the group changes its behavior.

Using psychohistory, Seldon has discovered the declining nature of the Empire, angering the aristocratic rulers of the Empire. The rulers consider Seldon’s views and statements treasonous, and he is arrested. Seldon is tried by the state and defends his beliefs, explaining his theory the Empire will collapse in 300 years and enter a 30,000-year dark age.

He informs the rulers an alternative to this future is attainable, and explains to them generating an anthology of all human knowledge, the Encyclopedia Galactica, would not avert the inevitable fall of the Empire but would reduce the Dark Age to “only” 1,000 years.

The fearful state apparatchiks offer him exile to a remote world, Terminus, with other academic intellectuals who could help him create the Encyclopedia. He accepts their offer, and sets in motion his plan to set up two Foundations, one at either end of the galaxy, to preserve the accumulated knowledge of humanity and thereby shorten the Dark Age, once the Empire collapses. Seldon created the Foundation, knowing it would eventually be seen as a threat to rulers of the Empire, provoking an eventual attack. That is why he created a Second Foundation, unknown to the ruling class.

Asimov’s psychohistory concept, based on the predictability of human actions in large numbers, has similarities to Strauss & Howe’s generational theory. His theory didn’t pretend to predict the actions of individuals, but formulated definite laws developed by mathematical analysis to predict the mass action of human groups. His novel explores the centuries old debate of whether human history proceeds in a predictable fashion, with individuals incapable of changing its course, or whether individuals can alter its progression.

The cyclical nature of history, driven by generational cohorts numbering tens of millions, has been documented over centuries by Strauss & Howe in their 1997 opus The Fourth Turning (https://www.amazon.com/Fourth-Turning-American-Prophecy-Rendezvous/dp/0767900464/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=ea5733609f1dcee0d0971eb4338f041f&creativeASIN=0767900464). Human beings in large numbers react in a herd-like predictable manner. I know that is disappointing to all the linear thinking individualists who erroneously believe one person can change the world and course of history.

The cyclical crisis’s that occur every eighty years matches up with how every Foundation story centers on what is called a Seldon crisis, the conjunction of seemingly insoluble external and internal difficulties. The crises were all predicted by Seldon, who appears near the end of each story as a hologram to confirm the Foundation has traversed the latest one correctly.

The “Seldon Crises” take on two forms. Either events unfold in such a way there is only one clear path to take, or the forces of history conspire to determine the outcome. But, the common feature is free will doesn’t matter. The heroes and adversaries believe their choices will make a difference when, in fact, the future is already written. This is a controversial viewpoint which angers many people because they feel it robs them of their individuality.

Most people don’t want to be lumped together in an amalgamation of other humans because they believe admitting so would strip them of their sense of free will. Their delicate sensibilities are bruised by the unequivocal fact their individual actions are virtually meaningless to the direction of history. But, the madness of crowds can dramatically impact antiquity.

“In reading The History of Nations, we find that, like individuals, they have their whims and their peculiarities, their seasons of excitement and recklessness, when they care not what they do. We find that whole communities suddenly fix their minds upon one object and go mad in its pursuit; that millions of people become simultaneously impressed with one delusion, and run after it, till their attention is caught by some new folly more captivating than the first.” – Charles Mackay, Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds (https://www.amazon.com/Extraordinary-Popular-Delusions-Madness-Crowds/dp/1463740514/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=04f681ec888d23fc86fa875da369e750&creativeASIN=1463740514)Many people argue the dynamic advancements in technology and science have changed the world in such a way to alter human nature in a positive way, thereby resulting in humans acting in a more rational manner. This alteration would result in a level of human progress not experienced previously. The falsity of this technological theory is borne out by the continuation of war, government corruption, greed, belief in economic fallacies, civic decay, cultural degradation, and global disorder sweeping across the world. Humanity is incapable of change. The same weaknesses and self- destructive traits which have plagued them throughout history are as prevalent today as they ever were.

Asimov’s solution to the failure of humanity to change was to create an academic oriented benevolent ruling class who could save the human race from destroying itself. He seems to have been well before his time with regards to creating Shadow Governments and Deep State functionaries. It appears he agreed with his contemporary Edward Bernays. The masses could not be trusted to make good decisions, so they needed more intellectually advanced men to guide their actions.

“The conscious and intelligent manipulation of the organized habits and opinions of the masses is an important element in democratic society. Those who manipulate this unseen mechanism of society constitute an invisible government which is the true ruling power of our country. We are governed, our minds are molded, our tastes formed, our ideas suggested, largely by men we have never heard of. This is a logical result of the way in which our democratic society is organized.

Vast numbers of human beings must cooperate in this manner if they are to live together as a smoothly functioning society. …In almost every act of our daily lives, whether in the sphere of politics or business, in our social conduct or our ethical thinking, we are dominated by the relatively small number of persons…who understand the mental processes and social patterns of the masses. It is they who pull the wires which control the public mind.” – Edward Bernays – Propaganda (https://www.amazon.com/Propaganda-Edward-Bernays/dp/0970312598/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=d1b624c84ca1e1440f3e5d60def0c926&creativeASIN=0970312598)In Part Two of this article I will compare and contrast Donald Trump’s rise to power to the rise of The Mule in Asimov’s masterpiece. Unusually gifted individuals come along once in a lifetime to disrupt the plans of the existing social order.

Thanks for Ron Paul's comments on surveillance of Trump. It is harshly critical of how he frames the surveillance issue, the conclusions he draws. If Trump was truly alarmed by it all, as he should be, he would be working to dismantle all but the most necessary and judicially approved surveillance of enemies of the state.

Why do you think his administration is going in the other direction, Turiya?

I've recently listened to a recent David John Oates Reverse Speech analysis... Its very good, imo. It just may explain a bit of why Trump has made the decisions that he has made. A bit of not seeing the forest from the trees. It coincides with what my Source has been telling me....

He's undergoing the processing of a massive learning curve & finding out the monstrosity of just what he's up against & within the situation he is finding himself in as POTUS - Idiots in front of him & all around him. No doubt he will have to come to grips with how to deal with the true nature of this Beast he is finding himself up against - Deep State & the Israeli Mossad, pedogate, etc - everywhere he looks he sees criminals & people being blackmailed working for the takedown of America, and of course the insane idiots ranting about Hillary losing the election + people like Insane John McCain. The control mechanism that so many of the Pentagon generals are caught under. This analysis comes from his speech to Congress which was a couple weeks ago. One thing that's good, imo... is that HS says he will make it through this. More of the 'Wait & See' mode proceeding forward....

The Comey stuff also is quite interesting...

IT’S ON! Donald Trump Just Declared WAR
on These Republicans! THIS IS HUGE! (https://libertywriters.com/2017/03/donald-trump-just-declared-war-republicans-huge/)

Coming off a very disappointing weekend where a Republican-controlled House and Senate FAILED to repeal Obamacare or defund Planned Parenthood, you can bet President Trump was not happy.

However, he spent the weekend restrategizing and came up with a whole new solution: It wasn’t the Democrat’s fault the bill failed…IT WAS THE REPUBLICANS!

Not just any Republicans (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4350614/Now-Trump-blames-conservatives-Obamacare-failure.html), mind you. The people who caused America to be stuck with these horrible socialist solutions are:

The Freedom Caucus, with the help of
Club For Growth and Heritage Action!

Now, your first thought is probably “These are Tea Party groups. There is no way they would help the Democrats.” Right?

WRONG!
All three of these groups have one thing in common – THEY ARE FUNDED BY THE KOCH BROTHERS!

In case you are unaware, the Koch Brothers are the pseudo-Republican billionaires who spend tons of money to see the Republican party collapse by destroying our unity.

Basically, Charles Koch and David Koch are no better that George Soros himself!

So what will President Trump do about these bringers of destruction? He is cutting them out!

https://libertywriters.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/dgpMw.gif

From now on, he plans on working across the aisle to bring together MODERATE Republicans and Democrats and exclude ANYONE funded by the Koch family. They clearly DO NOT want to see Planned Parenthood or Obamacare dealt with.

President Donald Trump doesn’t care if it’s a win for the Democrats or Republicans. He isn’t a politician. His ONLY goal is to put America First and God Bless him for that!

Questions Grow Over Nunes' Mystery (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-03-27/questions-swirl-over-devin-nunes-mystery-white-house-visit)
White House "Source" Visit (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-03-27/questions-swirl-over-devin-nunes-mystery-white-house-visit)
http://www.zerohedge.com/sites/default/files/pictures/picture-5.jpgby Tyler Durden
Mar 27, 2017 6:47 PM

The mystery surrounding President Donald Trump's claim that he was wiretapped by Barack Obama during the 2016 election campaign deepened on Monday, when it was revealed that House Intel Committee Chair Devin Nunes was on the White House grounds where he reviewed classified information the day before he announced he had seen intelligence that showed members of President Trump's transition team had been caught up in surveillance operations.

http://www.zerohedge.com/sites/default/files/images/user5/imageroot/2017/03/27/nunes%20door_0.jpg

U.S. Representative Devin Nunes, who has been embroiled in a firestorm of controversy over the past week, visited the White House the night before announcing on Wednesday that he had information that indicated some Trump associates may have been subjected to some level of intelligence activity before Trump took office on Jan. 20. According to a Daily Beast report (http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2017/03/24/devin-nunes-vanished-the-night-before-he-made-trump-surveillance-claims.html), Nunes "went off the grid" that night to meet a source and view dozens of intelligence reports, including accounts of meetings involving President Donald Trump's advisers.

Nunes admitted he was on White House grounds, but not in the White House itself, for meetings "to confirm what I already knew," and he noted no one in the White House knew he was there. Nunes then declined to comment further because he didn't want to "compromise sources and methods."

Then it gets weirder.

As Bloomberg's Eli Lake adds (https://www.bloomberg.com/view/articles/2017-03-27/devin-nunes-explains-his-white-house-visit), "CNN is reporting that Nunes had in fact slipped off to the White House grounds last Tuesday to view the documents. And then on Wednesday, after briefing reporters on what he had found in those intelligence reports, he went back to the White House to inform the president."

One question that has emerged since the details of Nunes' visit were revealed, is why would the Republican Intel Committee Chair need to brief the president on documents he viewed at a facility on White House grounds? The White House directed questions about the episode to Nunes. "We have been made aware through public reports that Chairman Nunes confirmed he was on the White House grounds on Tuesday and any questions concerning his meeting should be directed to the Chairman," the White House said.

In an interview Monday, Nunes told Lake that he ended up meeting his source on the White House grounds because it was the most convenient secure location with a computer connected to the system that included the reports, which are only distributed within the executive branch. "We don't have networked access to these kinds of reports in Congress," Nunes said. He added that his source was not a White House staffer and was an intelligence official.

Nunes, it should be said, has a history of cultivating independent sources inside the intelligence community. He made contact, for example, with the U.S. intelligence contractors who ended up saving most of the Americans stuck in the Benghazi outpost when it was attacked on Sept. 11, 2012. More recently, Nunes has reached out to his network of whistleblowers to learn about pressure inside the military's Central Command on analysts to write positive reports on the U.S. campaign against the Islamic State.

In this case, Nunes had been hearing for more than a month about intelligence reports that included details on the Trump transition team, and had been trying to view them himself. He told me that when he finally saw the documents last Tuesday evening, he made sure to copy down their identifying numbers so he could request access to them formally for the rest of the committeeConfirming Lake's account, Nunes spokesman Jack Langer said in a statement that Nunes "met with his source at the White House grounds in order to have proximity to a secure location where he could view the information provided by the source."

Comment from Chairman Nunes' spox about
his whereabouts the day before his
announcement Trump/associates may be
swept up in surveillance

10:27 AM - 27 Mar 2017

As Reuters adds (http://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-trump-russia-idUSKBN16Y1H6), it was the latest twist in a saga that began on March 4 when Trump said on Twitter that he "just found out that Obama had my 'wires tapped' in Trump Tower just before the victory." FBI Director James Comey told Congress last Monday he had seen no evidence to support the claim. Trump's mention of wiretapping drew attention away from U.S. intelligence agencies having said that Russia tried to help Trump in the election against Democrat Hillary Clinton by hacking leading Democrats and spreading disinformation. Moscow denies any such activities. Trump has also dismissed them.

Nunes told reporters on Wednesday that he had briefed Trump "on the concerns I had about incidental collection and how it relates to President-elect Trump and his transition team and the concerns that I have." After an uproar over the allegations and the fact that he briefed Trump first before members of his own committee, Nunes apologized on Thursday for the way he handled the information. A congressional source said congressional investigators have questioned agencies directly to try to find out what intelligence reports and intercepts Nunes is referring to, but that as of Monday the agencies were still saying they did not know what Nunes was talking about.

Earlier on Monday, the Washington Post reported that Nunes was on his way to an event late Tuesday when he left his staff and went to review classified intelligence files brought to his attention by his source, whom he has not identified.

* * *

Meanwhile, the White House has seized on Nunes' remarks to bolster Trump's unproven assertion that Obama wiretapped his campaign headquarters in Manhattan's Trump Tower. Nunes and some other Republicans have focused much of their concern over the investigation about the possibility that some Americans' names have been improperly "unmasked" and released to the public in leaks about the investigation of whether Trump's campaign colluded with Moscow. Nunes spokesman Langer cited concerns about the exposure of citizens' names in his statement.

"The chairman is extremely concerned by the possible improper unmasking of names of U.S. citizens, and he began looking into this issue even before President Trump tweeted his assertion that Trump Tower had been wiretapped," Langer said.

Democrats have questioned, given his actions, whether he can remain independent during the Intelligence Committee's own investigation of Russian meddling.

It remains unknown who was Nunes' source and whether he was doing the White House's bidding in saying the transition team has been surveilled. Nunes said last week that the surveillance was not related to Russia and that the Trump officials had been caught up in legal snooping.

Previously, CNN reported that Nunes was with a staff member at the White House when he reviewed the intelligence. A spokesman said the intelligence could not have been taken to the House.

“The information comprised executive branch documents that have not been provided to Congress,” a Nunes spokesman said. “Because of classification rules, the source could not simply put the documents in a backpack and walk them over to the House Intelligence Committee space. The White House grounds was the best location to safeguard the proper chain of custody and classification of these documents, so the Chairman could view them in a legal way."

* * *

Going back to Lake, the Bloomberg reporter said that "Nunes told me these reports were sent to the Obama White House among other executive branch agencies. Nunes until now had only said the reports he viewed were widely distributed inside the government. "The reports included details about the Trump transition, meetings of Trump and senior advisers, they were distributed throughout the intelligence community and to the White House," Nunes said. "In some cases, there was additional unmasking of Trump transition team officials."

As Lake concludes, "this is suggestive, though not yet proof, that White House officials privy to the Russia investigation wanted keep tabs on Trump and his advisers in the period after the election and before his inauguration. It also fits together with other facts in this story as well. For example, on March 1, the New York Times reported that Obama White House officials sought to preserve intelligence in the final days and weeks of his presidency on Team Trump's connections to Russia and Russia's campaign to influence the election. Though Nunes says the reports he viewed had nothing to do with Russia."

The implications are two-fold as per Lake:

The good news is that we will soon get a second and third opinion. Nunes told me that he expects that his committee's members, including Democrats, will be able to read these documents themselves at secure locations outside of Congress as soon as this week.

If it turns out that intelligence about the Trump transition was included in dozens of reports that were sent to the White House, then the House Intelligence Committee really has two investigations. The first is of course a probe into how the Russian state meddled in the election and whether it did so with the aid of Trump's associates or campaign. The second is about whether the Obama White House inappropriately spied on Trump and his advisers during the transition to power.

While incomplete information and partisan innuendo continues to swirl, both sides are accusing each other of conducting a misdirection campaign meant to cover up either Trump's links to Russia, or Obama's surveillance of Trump for reasons still unknown. If Lake is correct, the mystery over Nunes' White House visit will soon be resolved. As to whether Trump is an alleged puppet of Putin, or if Obama was actively spying on Trump, sadly that particular inquiry is only just starting.

FOUNDATION AND EMPIRE:
IS DONALD TRUMP THE MULE?
PART 2 (https://www.theburningplatform.com/2017/03/26/foundation-fall-of-the-american-galactic-empire/#more-145225)
By Administration
Posted March 27 2017

In Part One (https://www.theburningplatform.com/2017/03/26/foundation-fall-of-the-american-galactic-empire/) of this article I analyzed the similarities of Isaac Asimov’s Foundation Trilogy to Strauss & Howe’s Fourth Turning, trying to assess how Donald Trump’s ascension to power fits into the theories put forth by those authors. Now I will compare Trump to the most interesting character in Asimov’s classic – The Mule.

The Mule

“A horse having a wolf as a powerful and dangerous enemy lived in constant fear of his life. Being driven to desperation, it occurred to him to seek a strong ally. Whereupon he approached a man, and offered an alliance, pointing out that the wolf was likewise an enemy of the man. The man accepted the partnership at once and offered to kill the wolf immediately, if his new partner would only co-operate by placing his greater speed at the man’s disposal. The horse was willing, and allowed the man to place bridle and saddle upon him.

The man mounted, hunted down the wolf, and killed him. “The horse, joyful and relieved, thanked the man, and said: ‘Now that our enemy is dead, remove your bridle and saddle and restore my freedom.’ “Whereupon the man laughed loudly and replied, ‘Never!’ and applied the spurs with a will.” – Isaac Asimov, Foundation (https://www.amazon.com/Foundation-Trilogy-Isaac-Asimov/dp/0307292061/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=789693348822eb1ce5483249f2ae4b2c&creativeASIN=0307292061)

http://www.eclectablog.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/TrumpTheMule.png

I had not thought about the Foundation Trilogy for decades, until someone recently mentioned it in a comment on my website. They pondered whether Trump’s arrival on the scene represented The Mule’s advent during the decline of the Galactic Empire. Trump’s numerous enemies would love to portray him as an evil mutant freakish warlord, bent on using his persuasion powers to mislead the populace into doing his bidding. I don’t necessarily see Trump as The Mule, but as a disrupting factor, disturbing the best laid plans of the establishment and helping reveal the hidden agendas of the Deep State (https://www.amazon.com/Deep-State-Constitution-Shadow-Government/dp/0143109936/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=ccd91ea3bbabeb44e3246c77d9637230&creativeASIN=0143109936).

Seldon’s science of psychohistory was outstanding at predicting the behavior of large populations but worthless in trying to predict what an individual might do. The emergence of the Mule, a mentalic mutant with an acute telepathic ability to modify the emotions of human beings, could not have been predicted by the Seldon Plan, focused as it was on the statistical movements of vast numbers of peoples and populations across the galaxy.

The Mule was the unpredictable variable in the equations of history and the greatest threat to the Seldon Plan. He disrupts the inevitability of the continued evolution of the First Foundation and potential early ending of the Dark Age. The Mule, through telepathic manipulation, defeats and takes over the Foundation’s growing empire, which has become increasingly control-oriented and out-of-touch with the outer planets in its rapidly expanding realm of influence.

There are certainly parallels between Trump’s arrival on the scene and The Mule’s psychohistory defying disruption of Seldon’s Plan. The Mule was described as a freak and the subject of derision. This fueled his ambition to take over the galaxy. I believe Trump decided he was going to be president on April 30, 2011 during the Correspondence Dinner at the White House when Obama unrelentingly mocked and derided him in front of the corrupt Washington power establishment. This public ridicule from an empty suit community organizer president, who never worked a real day in his life, angered Trump to his core and propelled him to seek and win the presidency.

https://pixel.nymag.com/imgs/daily/intelligencer/2016/03/12/12-donald-trump-2011-WHCD-screencap.w710.h473.2x.jpg

The Mule enters the scene disguised as a clown named Magnifico Giganticus. Over time, he uses his psycho-manipulative abilities to sway the masses to his side and eventually takes over the galaxy. When Trump announced his candidacy, it was taken as a public relations stunt to further his faltering reality TV career. He has a magnificent gigantic ego. His persona was that of an irascible self-made billionaire with an enormous ego and hunger for the spotlight. He was the butt of many orange hair and orange skin jokes.

For the most part, he went along with the joke, as any publicity is good publicity when you are selling yourself as a brand. He put his name on buildings, Chinese made clothing, scam universities, and just about anything that would produce a buck. He became more famous for his TV show The Apprentice, and his tag-line “You’re Fired”, than for the billion dollar real estate empire he had built.

Like The Mule, Trump used the GOP establishment’s disdain and underestimation of his persuasion abilities to capture control of the party from the out of touch elitist party hacks. At the outset of his candidacy I was among the libertarian minded skeptics who didn’t take him seriously. I found him entertaining, but didn’t think he had the gravitas to be president. I liked his rhetoric about not interfering in foreign conflicts, protecting our borders, enforcing the rule of law, repealing the disastrous Obamacare law, and his relentless trashing of the left wing mainstream media and Washington establishment.

I wasn’t a big fan of his bloviating about inconsequential matters. As time passed I began to realize he was probably the Grey Champion of this Fourth Turning (https://www.amazon.com/Fourth-Turning-American-Prophecy-Rendezvous/dp/0767900464/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=ea5733609f1dcee0d0971eb4338f041f&creativeASIN=0767900464) and the regeneracy towards the next phase would be his unexpected election to the highest office in the land. He was the only person capable of destroying the fetid pustule known as the Deep State (https://www.amazon.com/Deep-State-Constitution-Shadow-Government/dp/0143109936/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=ccd91ea3bbabeb44e3246c77d9637230&creativeASIN=0143109936).

The Mule’s tormented childhood of alienation, combined with his mental ability to alter human emotions led to his desire for power, in order to exact revenge upon the human race which caused him so much pain. Trump’s childhood was no walk in the park, but it was far from being tortured. His father did send him to military school at the age of 13 to instill some discipline in him. It does seem like his drive to succeed was spurred by a desire to prove himself to his father and be more successful than his old man. Unlike The Mule, his motivation is not revenge motivated, unless you consider it revenge upon Obama for the abuse he withstood during that dinner.

The Mule had the mental capabilities to turn antagonists into followers, converting feelings of animosity into those of intense loyalty. He could also stimulate feelings of pervasive fear and panic among his enemies. He used the subtle influence of the subconscious to conscript individuals to his cause. The Mule used his mental powers to disrupt Seldon’s plan by invalidating his assumption no single individual could have a quantifiable impact on historical trends predicted by his theory of psychohistory. The Mule is a Grey Champion-like character rising to power at a crucial time in history as the disruptive factor to the best laid plans of over-confident elitists. The Mule uses his extraordinary cerebral abilities to conquer the unprepared and over-confident Foundation (https://www.amazon.com/Foundation-Trilogy-Isaac-Asimov/dp/0307292061/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=4b8b64051b9923275d897a236bef8f40&creativeASIN=0307292061).

https://qph.ec.quoracdn.net/main-qimg-25ed285d1c18bd192127a09d856fe08a-c

Trump has been underestimated every step of the way for the last two years. He has thrown sand into the gears of the political establishment, made up of both parties, and controlled by Deep State players used to getting their way. Trump was able to use his powers of persuasion to overcome the left wing media propaganda and motivate a large swath of disaffected Americans to come over to his side. The never ending barrage of misinformation and fake news spewed by the Deep State (https://www.amazon.com/Deep-State-Constitution-Shadow-Government/dp/0143109936/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=ccd91ea3bbabeb44e3246c77d9637230&creativeASIN=0143109936) controlled media ignores the fact he won 53% of the white women vote, along with huge numbers of union workers from blue collar states like Michigan, Ohio, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and Indiana.

As documented during the campaign by Scott Adams, Trump’s phenomenal power of persuasion overcame all obstacles thrown in his way by the crooked establishment. He had no support from the GOP power players, was despised and ridiculed by the horribly corrupt Democratic establishment machine, scorned and mocked by the fake news corporate media, and undermined by the surveillance apparatus at the behest of the rancid resentful reprobate occupying the oval office. Their pure unadulterated hatred for the man resulted in them becoming blindsided and baffled by his tactics, strategy, and Svengali-like ability to draw huge crowds of normal Americans in flyover country.

Trump has disrupted the ongoing Deep State (https://www.amazon.com/Deep-State-Constitution-Shadow-Government/dp/0143109936/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=ccd91ea3bbabeb44e3246c77d9637230&creativeASIN=0143109936) capture of our political, economic, financial, social, and cultural systems as a once in a lifetime figure destined to govern during a time of domestic disorder, global upheaval, civil chaos and ultimately war on a grand scale. The looting and pillaging campaign of the ruling class, disguised as free market capitalism and democracy, has been put at risk by an uncontrollable unpredictable outsider who doesn’t act according to their Plan.

The staged violent response by the billionaire funded left wing faux anarchists, fake news Russian conspiracy propaganda, and NSA/CIA/FBI campaign to discredit and/or overthrow the Trump presidency is the kind of response you would expect from a dangerous threatened animal backed into a corner. The establishment will not relinquish control without a bloody drawn out fight to the finish.

Since we know Asimov modeled the trilogy on Gibbons’ The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire (https://www.amazon.com/Decline-Fall-Roman-Empire/dp/0753818817/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=3c142cd092ea459ccc0bb368e23d48a7&creativeASIN=0753818817), there has been much conjecture as to who The Mule represented. He has historical parallels with Attila the Hun, Tamerlane, Charlemagne and Roman Emperor Augustus. Based on the historical time frame in which he was writing (1941 – 1950), I think it is safe to assume he modeled some of The Mule’s traits after Adolf Hitler. His disturbed childhood, trauma during the First World War, hypnotic ability to manipulate the emotions of the German people, boldness in attacking his perceived enemies, and attempt at world conquest, parallels much of The Mule’s story.

When I try to find parallels to our current situation and the role Trump is playing, I see the Foundation (https://www.amazon.com/Foundation-Trilogy-Isaac-Asimov/dp/0307292061/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=4b8b64051b9923275d897a236bef8f40&creativeASIN=0307292061) trilogy in a different light. Isaac Asimov was an intellectual. He had a PhD in biochemistry and was a life-long member of Mensa. He was a university professor for most of his life. Academics believe in theories and academic mumbo jumbo, as we can see from decades of academics running the Federal Reserve, destroying our currency and forcing millions into economic servitude.

Hari Seldon is an intellectual who creates the Foundation (https://www.amazon.com/Foundation-Trilogy-Isaac-Asimov/dp/0307292061/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=4b8b64051b9923275d897a236bef8f40&creativeASIN=0307292061), made up of other academic intellectuals. Then he sets up a Second Foundation of even more talented intellectuals as a backup plan in case the Foundation (https://www.amazon.com/Foundation-Trilogy-Isaac-Asimov/dp/0307292061/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=4b8b64051b9923275d897a236bef8f40&creativeASIN=0307292061) fails. The true ruling powers on this planet always have a backup plan. You never know whether the leaders or organizations you support are really part of a bigger plan you have not considered. Keeping the populace off-balance, confused, and seeking unseen enemies is just part of the plan.

The inevitable decline of the Galactic Empire was entirely predictable by Seldon, as every empire in world history has ultimately declined. Whether the Roman Empire was ruled by a despot, wise man, or idiot, it continued its centuries long decline from glory to destruction. Empires are created by fallible men whose failings, weaknesses, and desires never change. John Adams foresaw the future of an American Empire two centuries before it became an empire. The American Empire is in the process of committing suicide and a single individual, no matter how bold and resolute, will not be able to save it from its inevitable destruction.

“I do not say that democracy has been more pernicious on the whole, and in the long run, than monarchy or aristocracy. Democracy has never been and never can be so durable as aristocracy or monarchy; but while it lasts, it is more bloody than either. … Remember, democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet that did not commit suicide. It is in vain to say that democracy is less vain, less proud, less selfish, less ambitious, or less avaricious than aristocracy or monarchy.

It is not true, in fact, and nowhere appears in history. Those passions are the same in all men, under all forms of simple government, and when unchecked, produce the same effects of fraud, violence, and cruelty. When clear prospects are opened before vanity, pride, avarice, or ambition, for their easy gratification, it is hard for the most considerate philosophers and the most conscientious moralists to resist the temptation. Individuals have conquered themselves. Nations and large bodies of men, never.” – John Adams, The Letters of John and Abigail Adams (https://www.amazon.com/John-Adams-David-McCullough/dp/0743223136/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=e15dfd3bb9262d366451f490f09e2ab5&creativeASIN=0743223136)

I don’t see Trump as an evil Mule character in this Shakespearian tragedy, as it progresses towards its ill-fated denouement. I also don’t see Seldon and his ensemble of elitist intellectuals as the saviors of the universe. I see The Foundation as the Washington and Wall Street elite who are the face of the establishment – Pelosi, Schumer, Ryan, McConnell, Yellen, Dimon, Blankfein, Immelt, Gates, Buffet, etc. The Second Foundation was hidden in plain sight, operating in the shadows, unknown to the masses, and controlling the galaxy from behind the curtain. They were the Galactic Deep State (https://www.amazon.com/Deep-State-Constitution-Shadow-Government/dp/0143109936/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=ccd91ea3bbabeb44e3246c77d9637230&creativeASIN=0143109936).

The Seldon Plan smells like a current day Soros Plan. Wealthy, highly educated, egotistical, hubristic, evil snakes who believe they are the smartest men in the world operate behind the scenes as the invisible government, manipulating the mechanisms of society and pulling the wires controlling the public mind. Soros, along with other shadowy smug billionaires, are not fans of populism.

They believe they are entitled to run the world as they choose, with no input or resistance from the ignorant masses. With the basket of deplorables rising up and electing Trump, the Deep State (https://www.amazon.com/Deep-State-Constitution-Shadow-Government/dp/0143109936/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=ccd91ea3bbabeb44e3246c77d9637230&creativeASIN=0143109936) players are now openly fighting back and revealing their warped thought process. Elitist billionaire Ray Dalio recently revealed his populism fears and those of his fellow billionaires. He doesn’t consider himself a common man.

https://libertyblitzkrieg.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/Screen-Shot-2017-01-16-at-11.35.21-AM-1024x843.jpg

Populism is a political and social phenomenon that arises from the common man, typically not well-educated, being fed up with 1) wealth and opportunity gaps, 2) perceived cultural threats from those with different values in the country and from outsiders, 3) the “establishment elites” in positions of power, and 4) government not working effectively for them. These sentiments lead that constituency to put strong leaders in power. Populist leaders are typically confrontational rather than collaborative and exclusive rather than inclusive. As a result, conflicts typically occur between opposing factions (usually the economic and socially left versus the right), both within the country and between countries. These conflicts typically become progressively more forceful in self-reinforcing ways.

In other words, populism is a rebellion of the common man against the elites to some extent, against the system. The rebellion and the conflict that comes with it occur in varying degrees. Sometimes the system bends with it and sometimes the system breaks. Whether it bends or breaks in response to this rebellion and conflict depends on how flexible and well established the system is. It also seems to depend on how reasonable and respectful of the system the populists who gain power are. Classic populist economic policies include protectionism, nationalism, increased infrastructure building, increased military spending, greater budget deficits, and, quite often, capital controls.

https://i.ytimg.com/vi/nZ7o1-zmstQ/hqdefault.jpg

Dalio, Soros and their fellow billionaires see populism as a threat to their wealth, power, and control of the world. But, it’s much ado about nothing. It’s like jockeying for the best seat on the Titanic as it sinks into the frigid ocean depths of the Atlantic. The American Empire is in shambles and no one can reverse its course at this point.

To me the Podesta/Kremlin thing is huge especially in terms of canceling out the phony russiagate of the dems accusations against trump. Why aren't the repubs jumping all over this? where is trey gowty? where is cruz? where is louis gohmert? where is rand? where is someone?!! What is the point of having majorities in the house and senate if you're not going to use the power?! Is everyone paralyzed cause they're all no damn good? Would that be friggin' funny if trump can't do anything cause everyone is a swamp creature, lol. of course I'm exaggerating, i hope....

Regarding the vid of the Dr. Phil show with the supposed sex trafficked victim above that Turiya posted - I'm wondering if anyone gets a weird vibe about any of this besides me.

Aside from several secondary questions about the victim my main red flag is whether a technique is being used here to start making sex traffic victims and their horrendous stories commonplace conversation pieces. Perhaps they (elites) know that the info getting out, mostly via Alt reporters, internet, etc., regarding world-wide trafficking is growing and is beginning to sneak into mainstream and they want to 'head it off at the pass' by neutralizing it via tedious talking heads shows like Dr. Phil. Some horrifying things were recounted on the show and if victims start making the rounds of talk shows, if people start seeing four or five of these type shows on mainstream, people will start yawning rather than get behind any political push to do something about it.
it will be harder to bring some of these powerful criminals down by the hard work of brave reporters 'breaking open' a story if people don't care because they've been desensitized to the issue because it's become talk show topics. it would be very slick if this were a technique.

Years ago I read a book called 4 Arguments For the Elimination of Television written by a CEO of an advertising company (jerry mander). Was a long time ago but I remember him saying he had a non-profit client of an American Indian Group who was protesting something and they so much wanted to get on television. He was trying to advise them not to as it would trivialize their cause, they would just be another spot on the 6 o'clock news like thousands of other items that flit across the screen. And that is what happened. They had a spot on the news and it didn't do anything for them... they were just grist for the media mill...

of course if the media wants to blow something up they can and they do, but I just felt it strange that something which has operated undercover for so long is now suddenly being introduced into mainstream and in a trite manner...

Top Obama insider tells MSNBC
that the former US President
spied on candidate Trump (Video) (http://theduran.com/obama-insider-tells-msnbc-that-the-former-us-president-spied-on-donald-trump-video/)

Alex Christoforou (http://theduran.com/author/alex/)
4 hours ago 5 (http://theduran.com/obama-insider-tells-msnbc-that-the-former-us-president-spied-on-donald-trump-video/#disqus_thread)
Evelyn Farkas says Barack Obama was indeed spying on candidate Trump.
#Obamagate picks up more speed, as the former Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense in the Obama White House, Evelyn Farkas, has admitted that Donald Trump was spied on, and that Obama tried to hide both the source, and how the information was being disseminated to “the hill.”

Farkas was on MSNBC’s Morning Joe, when she made the stunning revelation that she was involved in “helping to spy on Trump for Obama.”

Farkas unknowingly ratted out her former boss Barack Obama on the liberal left propaganda outlet, MSNBC…

“I was urging my former colleagues, and, and frankly speaking the people on the Hill [Democrat politicians], it was more actually aimed at telling the Hill people, get as much information as you can – get as much intelligence as you can – before President Obama leaves the administration.

Because I had a fear that somehow that information would disappear with the senior [Obama] people who left; so it would be hidden away in the bureaucracy, um, that the Trump folks – if they found out HOW we knew what we knew about their, the Trump staff, dealing with Russians – that they would try to compromise those sources and methods; meaning we no longer have access to that intelligence.

So I became very worried because not enough was coming out into the open and I knew that there was more. We have very good intelligence on Russia; so then I had talked to some of my former colleagues and I knew that they were also trying to help get information to [Democrat politicians].”

Farkas admitted to having first hand knowledge that the Obama administration spied on a US presidential candidate’s transition team (http://theduran.com/trump-russia-wiretap-corner-turned/) in order to gather “intelligence” for political use, information which was then leaked to the media through Obama January executive order 12333.

MSNBC, the network working oh so hard to remove Trump from office in what has become Russian election meddling fake news, has now helped debunk their entire Trump impeachment effort…Farkas clearly shows that Donald Trump, not Russians, was the target of the illegal surveillance.

Evelyn Farkas Says Obama Was
Spying on Trump - MSNBC 3/27 3/28
(Published on Mar 28, 2017)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gapRNpEjXUo

Via The Conservative Treehouse (https://theconservativetreehouse.com/2017/03/28/oh-my-president-obamas-own-defense-deputy-admits-obama-white-house-spied-on-candidatepresident-elect-trump/#more-130586)…

It would appear Ms. Farkas was so caught up in the discussion, she didn’t quite realize the significant admissions she was making about the Obama administration spying on Donald Trump’s team and generating classified intelligence for Ms. Farkas (and others) to spread to Capitol Hill politicians. MSNBC’s Mika Brzezinski recognized the ‘oh-snap’ admission and tried to play it off,…but by then it was too late.

With the help of MSNBC, simultaneous to her admission of first-hand specific knowledge of the administration spying on Mr. Trump, Ms. Evelyn Farkas outs herself as the key source for a New York Times report which discussed President Obama officials leaking classified information to media.

Considerable irony jumps to the forefront when you recognize, the New York Times tried to protect Evelyn Farkas as the source of their reporting (https://www.nytimes.com/2017/03/01/us/politics/obama-trump-russia-election-hacking.html?_r=0) by stating:

“More than a half-dozen current and former officials described various aspects of the effort to preserve and distribute the intelligence, and some said they were speaking to draw attention to the material and ensure proper investigation by Congress. All spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were discussing classified information, nearly all of which remains secret.” (link (https://www.nytimes.com/2017/03/01/us/politics/obama-trump-russia-election-hacking.html?_r=0))

Looks like Devin Nunes and the House Intelligence Committee has a new person to bring in for testimony. A positive development because at this rate the media leakers will out themselves without much need for investigation.

I wonder what the criminal penalties are for having access to intelligence and sharing it with Democrat politicians [“The Hill People”].
Farkas’ admission starts at the 04:50 mark…

I'd really be interested in someone else's take on the Farkas/MSNBC vid.
If we had some real sharpshooters on the repub side they could do something with Farkas, at least seriously interrogate her but the way she says what she does it will be easy for the dems to whitewash it. If we didn't have so many spineless repubs, maybe something could be done. I walked away from the vid once again amazed at how entitled the Dems feel. They believe they have the right to Leak Classified or private info because they don't like trump and they are not being called out on it. They are one large criminal class that protect eachother and have the protection of media.

I also came away from the vid feeling the blonde host knew that farkas potentially may have screwed herself but kept on going, wasn't going to give her away....
Does anyone feel after watching this that what Farkas said will have legs??

That would be MSNBC's Mika Brzezinski always has been a never-Trump, pro-Hillary commentator. Usually teamed up with Joe Scarborough, but it could be easily seen in her face that she didn't like when Joe made positive statements regarding Trump. I don't know she would probably have one of her MSNBC colleagues point it out to her that Farkas, unwittingly, exposed herself.

Let's see... Mika Brzezinski... doesn't that name ring a bell???

In Part Two (https://www.theburningplatform.com/2017/03/27/foundation-and-empire-is-donald-trump-the-mule/) of this article I compared and contrasted Donald Trump’s rise to power to the rise of The Mule in Asimov’s masterpiece.

Despite the forlorn hope Donald Trump or some other savior can reverse our course, decades of missteps, dreadful decisions, ineffectual leadership, and unconcealed treachery have paved a path to destruction for the American Empire.

American Empire Crumbling

“Mr. Advocate, the rotten tree-trunk, until the very moment when the storm-blast breaks it in two, has all the appearance of might it ever had. The storm-blast whistles through the branches of the Empire even now. Listen with the ears of psychohistory, and you will hear the creaking.” – Isaac Asimov, Foundation (https://www.amazon.com/Foundation-Trilogy-Isaac-Asimov/dp/0307292061/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=789693348822eb1ce5483249f2ae4b2c&creativeASIN=0307292061)

“Now any dogma, based primarily on faith and emotionalism, is a dangerous weapon to use on others, since it is almost impossible to guarantee that the weapon will never be turned on the user.” – Isaac Asimov, Foundation (https://www.amazon.com/Foundation-Trilogy-Isaac-Asimov/dp/0307292061/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=789693348822eb1ce5483249f2ae4b2c&creativeASIN=0307292061)

The elitist ruling class gathers at Davos and their secretive Bilderberg meetings to plot the course of the world, divvying up the vast wealth plundered through their globalization schemes, and developing the newest propaganda narrative to keep the global masses confused, distracted, and powerless to fight back. Despite their wealth and power, an epic level of hubris is always their undoing.

The normal people have begun to fight back but, like the rotten tree trunk Galactic Empire, the “mighty” American Empire, forged from the debris of two world wars, awaits the storm blast which will expose its true level of rot. The American Empire is crumbling under the weight of military overreach; the burden of unpayable debts; currency debasement; cultural decay; civic degeneration; diversity and deviancy trumping common culture and normality; pervasive corruption at every level of government; and the failure of shortsighted leaders to deal with the real problems.

You can hear the creaking as the winds of this Fourth Turning (https://www.amazon.com/Fourth-Turning-American-Prophecy-Rendezvous/dp/0767900464/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=ea5733609f1dcee0d0971eb4338f041f&creativeASIN=0767900464) winter howl through the branches of this dying empire. Trump may have forced the Deep State (https://www.amazon.com/Deep-State-Constitution-Shadow-Government/dp/0143109936/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=ccd91ea3bbabeb44e3246c77d9637230&creativeASIN=0143109936) Second Foundation (https://www.amazon.com/Foundation-Trilogy-Isaac-Asimov/dp/0307292061/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=4b8b64051b9923275d897a236bef8f40&creativeASIN=0307292061) to reveal itself as they seek to destroy him, but the relentless decline of the American Empire continues unabated. Tinkering around the edges of a healthcare system designed to benefit mega-corporations and the Deep State (https://www.amazon.com/Deep-State-Constitution-Shadow-Government/dp/0143109936/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=ccd91ea3bbabeb44e3246c77d9637230&creativeASIN=0143109936) will do nothing to reverse or even delay the decline.

Slowing the growth of government when the national debt is already $20 trillion and headed to $30 trillion within the next decade won’t cure the rot in our tree trunk. Completely ignoring the $200 trillion of unfunded welfare state liabilities helps accelerate the inevitable collapse of this empire. Cutting taxes while expanding the war making machine known as the military industrial complex does nothing to reverse what is already in motion.

https://i1.wp.com/buzzfaqs.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/US-National-Debt-1980-2019-Chart.jpg?resize=500%2C357

In addition to the absolutely quantifiable reasons why the American Empire will collapse, there are demographic, cultural, and societal trends which will contribute dramatically to the fall. The rapidly aging populace, with 10,000 Americans per day turning 65 years old, is the driving force towards national bankruptcy, as this inexorable demographic tsunami sweeps over the fraying fabric of welfare state promises.

The onslaught of illegal immigrants and purposeful execution of a plan by the effete liberal elite to weaken our common American culture through the insertion of Muslim refugees into our communities, is undermining the shared values which built the country. The immigrants who built this country assimilated, learned the language, worked hard, and adopted our common culture. The hordes invading America at this time hate our values and refuse to assimilate. This Soros funded effort to create diversity havoc throughout the world is part of the globalization one world order plan.

As Europe disintegrates under the unrelenting wave of violent refugees creating upheaval, chaos, and spreading religious zealotry through viciousness, the next target is the mighty American Empire. Fighting in the streets between the normal law abiding Trump supporters and the Soros funded, draped in black, flag burning, social justice warrior criminals has begun. Widespread societal strife is just around the corner.

When the next financial crisis, created by the Deep State (https://www.amazon.com/Deep-State-Constitution-Shadow-Government/dp/0143109936/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=ccd91ea3bbabeb44e3246c77d9637230&creativeASIN=0143109936) to further their plans, destroys the remaining wealth of the barely surviving middle class, all hell will break loose in the streets. The 86% of the country occupied by red state, gun owning, Trump supporters will openly go to war against the condescending, left wing, violence provoking blue state liberals. Blood will be spilled in copious amounts. It always does during Fourth Turnings.

Will Trump’s reign resemble the reign of The Mule? The Mule’s conquest was astonishingly fast. He defeated the Foundation (https://www.amazon.com/Foundation-Trilogy-Isaac-Asimov/dp/0307292061/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=4b8b64051b9923275d897a236bef8f40&creativeASIN=0307292061) and established the Union of Worlds after only five years. The unpredictability of his arrival and rare mental talents befuddled the Foundation (https://www.amazon.com/Foundation-Trilogy-Isaac-Asimov/dp/0307292061/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=4b8b64051b9923275d897a236bef8f40&creativeASIN=0307292061). Then he inexplicably paused in his campaign of conquests. Instead he launched repeated expeditions in search of the Second Foundation. The mysterious Second Foundation inhibits The Mule from further conquest as he is consumed with finding their location and paralyzed with fear they can defeat his mentalic powers.

The Second Foundation comes briefly out of hiding to face the threat of The Mule. It is revealed to be an assemblage of the most intelligent humans in the galaxy, descendants of Seldon’s psychohistorians. Using the force of its strongest minds, the Second Foundation ultimately wears down the Mule. They succeed in defeating the Mule, transforming him into a relatively harmless individual, lacking ambition, and no longer a threat to the Seldon Plan. His destructive posture is adjusted to a benign one. He returns to rule over his kingdom peacefully for the rest of his life, without any further thought of conquering the Second Foundation.

Trump has had an astonishingly fast rise to power. He went from frivolous reality TV star to the most powerful leader on earth in the space of two years. With his clownish exploits and rhetoric, he rose to power through being underestimated every step of the way – infuriating his many enemies who miscalculated his level of political savvy and persuasion skills. Unless he is overthrown by the Deep State (https://www.amazon.com/Deep-State-Constitution-Shadow-Government/dp/0143109936/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=ccd91ea3bbabeb44e3246c77d9637230&creativeASIN=0143109936) or killed, he will be able to put his imprint on the nation for at least four years and possibly eight.

His first two months in power will likely reflect his entire presidency. The Washington establishment and sinister Deep State (https://www.amazon.com/Deep-State-Constitution-Shadow-Government/dp/0143109936/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=ccd91ea3bbabeb44e3246c77d9637230&creativeASIN=0143109936) players will attempt to thwart Trump’s every move. They have already impeded his immigration controls and attempt to repeal and replace Obamacare, while using their illegal surveillance state techniques to undermine his administration.

https://www.endtime.com/wp-content/uploads/20150523_USD001_0.jpg

The Second Foundation, through unyielding pressure and generating fear of the unknown into the mind of The Mule, was able to undermine his plans of conquest and turn him into a non-disruptive, toothless, nonthreatening, passive figurehead. As Trump’s best laid plans are obstructed, agenda foiled, and legislation hindered, will his enthusiasm for governance wane?

The surveillance agencies who are supposed to act on his behalf are clearly trying to subvert his presidency. Leaks and fake news designed to sabotage the credibility of Trump and his administration will continue. Will the fear of retribution from mysterious surveillance state operatives convince Trump to fall into line and become a submissive lackey, no longer making waves for the Deep State (https://www.amazon.com/Deep-State-Constitution-Shadow-Government/dp/0143109936/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=ccd91ea3bbabeb44e3246c77d9637230&creativeASIN=0143109936)?

I have no illusions Trump is some sort of savior who will reverse decades of political corruption, currency debasement, financial market rigging, global military missteps, cultural decay, pervasive entitlement mindset, and out of control espionage operatives. At best, he will slow some aspects of the decline over a short time frame. More likely, he will provoke his enemies to such an extent the decline will be accelerated due to civil and/or global war breaking out. The oncoming financial collapse will further push the country toward the brink. It’s not a matter of if, but when. And the when is closer than most people imagine.

The seeds of destruction for the American Empire were planted as Ben Franklin departed the Constitutional Convention two hundred and thirty years ago responding to a question from Mrs. Powell that they had given the people a republic, if they could keep it. The seeds were slow to take root, but the transition from republic to democracy insured long-term decline as the people voted for more benefits, paid for by their fellow citizens and financed by debt.

With the secretive creation of the privately owned Federal Reserve in 1913, the debasement of our currency was begun. The true birth of the American Empire occurred with surrender of Germany & Japan at the conclusion of World War II. As the only major power not in physical and economic shambles, America dominated the world until its hubris kicked in during the late 1960s with the birth of the welfare/warfare state financed by debt. Closure of the gold window in 1971 sealed our fate.

We’ve crossed our Rubicon with the preservation and expansion of empire bankrupting the nation. We just refuse to admit it. It’s already a done deal. Default is baked in the cake. It’s happened to the Greeks, Romans, Spanish, Dutch, British, and many other civilizations throughout history. The path to destruction is always the same because the actions of humans in large numbers are entirely predictable. The American Empire has exploited all of the productive people, leaving nothing left to invest in the future. Investment by corporate America today constitutes greedy CEOs buying back their stock to boost earnings per share and share price in order to earn multi-million dollar bonuses.

The globalization scam was the last dying gasp to exploit the dwindling resources of the planet and the people. There is nothing left to fund the bread and circuses keeping the ignorant masses distracted, amused, and fed. The monetary machinations of the Federal Reserve have reached their limit. Economic crisis is inevitable before this Fourth Turning (https://www.amazon.com/Fourth-Turning-American-Prophecy-Rendezvous/dp/0767900464/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=ea5733609f1dcee0d0971eb4338f041f&creativeASIN=0767900464) runs its course.

The economic meltdown will likely result in the final breakup of the American empire. The best laid plans of Deep State billionaire intellectuals will be for naught. The law of large numbers will win again. All empires eventually die, and life will go on, unless the psychopaths controlling this country blow the planet up rather than relinquish their wealth and power. Is history already written or do we as individuals have a say?

“Throughout you have invariably relied on authority or on the past—never on yourselves.” – Isaac Asimov, Foundation (https://www.amazon.com/Foundation-Trilogy-Isaac-Asimov/dp/0307292061/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=789693348822eb1ce5483249f2ae4b2c&creativeASIN=0307292061)

“But Empire building also bears the seeds of its own destruction. The closer a state comes to the ultimate goal of world domination and one-world government, the less reason is there to maintain its internal liberalism and do instead what all states are inclined to do anyway, i.e., to crack down and increase their exploitation of whatever productive people are still left.

Consequently, with no additional tributaries available and domestic productivity stagnating or falling, the Empire’s internal policies of bread and circuses can no longer be maintained. Economic crisis hits, and an impending economic meltdown will stimulate decentralizing tendencies, separatist and secessionist movements, and lead to the break-up of Empire. We have seen this happen with Great Britain, and we are seeing it now, with the US and its Empire apparently on its last leg.” – Hans-Hermann Hoppe (https://www.amazon.com/Short-History-Man-Progress-Decline/dp/1610165918/ref=as_sl_pc_tf_til?tag=thebur01-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=61a3405b52aff6025da4755a42b0a8c0&creativeASIN=1610165918)

WikiLeaks’ latest Vault 7 release contains a batch of documents, named ‘Marble’, which detail CIA hacking tactics and how they can misdirect forensic investigators from attributing viruses, trojans and hacking attacks to their agency by inserted code fragments in foreign languages. The tool was in use as recently as 2016. Per the WikiLeaks (https://wikileaks.org/vault7/?marble#Marble%20Framework)release:

"The source code shows that Marble has test examples not just in English but also in Chinese, Russian, Korean, Arabic and Farsi. This would permit a forensic attribution double game, for example by pretending that the spoken language of the malware creator was not American English, but Chinese, but then showing attempts to conceal the use of Chinese, drawing forensic investigators even more strongly to the wrong conclusion, --- but there are other possibilities, such as hiding fake error messages."

WikiLeaks said Marble hides fragments of texts that would allow for the author of the malware to be identified. WikiLeaks stated the technique is the digital equivalent of a specialized CIA tool which disguises English language text on US produced weapons systems before they are provided to insurgents.

It’s “designed to allow for flexible and easy-to-use obfuscation" as "string obfuscation algorithms” often link malware to a specific developer, according to the whistleblowing site.

The source code released reveals Marble contains test examples in Chinese, Russian, Korean, Arabic and Farsi.

“This would permit a forensic attribution double game, for example by pretending that the spoken language of the malware creator was not American English, but Chinese, but then showing attempts to conceal the use of Chinese, drawing forensic investigators even more strongly to the wrong conclusion,” WikiLeaks explains, “But there are other possibilities, such as hiding fake error messages.”

The code also contains a ‘deobfuscator’ which allows the CIA text obfuscation to be reversed. “Combined with the revealed obfuscation techniques, a pattern or signature emerges which can assist forensic investigators attribute previous hacking attacks and viruses to the CIA.”

Previous Vault7 releases have referred to the CIA’s ability to mask its hacking fingerprints.

WikiLeaks claims the latest release will allow for thousands of viruses and hacking attacks to be attributed to the CIA.

Full release from WikiLeaks:

Today, March 31st 2017, WikiLeaks releases Vault 7 (https://wikileaks.org/ciav7p1/) "Marble" -- 676 source code files (https://wikileaks.org/vault7/document/Marble/Marble.zip) for the CIA's secret anti-forensic Marble Framework (https://wikileaks.org/ciav7p1/cms/space_15204359.html). Marble is used to hamper forensic investigators and anti-virus companies from attributing viruses, trojans and hacking attacks to the CIA.

Marble does this by hiding ("obfuscating") text fragments used in CIA malware (https://wikileaks.org/ciav7p1/) from visual inspection. This is the digital equivallent of a specalized CIA tool to place covers over the english language text on U.S. produced weapons systems before giving them to insurgents secretly backed by the CIA.

Marble forms part of the CIA's anti-forensics approach (https://wikileaks.org/ciav7p1/cms/page_11629046.html) and the CIA's Core Library (https://wikileaks.org/ciav7p1/cms/page_13763406.html) of malware code. It is "[D]esigned to allow for flexible and easy-to-use obfuscation" as "string obfuscation algorithms (especially those that are unique) are often used to link malware to a specific developer or development shop."

The Marble source code also includes a deobfuscator to reverse CIA text obfuscation. Combined with the revealed obfuscation techniques, a pattern or signature emerges which can assist forensic investigators attribute previous hacking attacks and viruses to the CIA. Marble was in use at the CIA during 2016. It reached 1.0 in 2015.

The source code shows that Marble has test examples not just in English but also in Chinese, Russian, Korean, Arabic and Farsi. This would permit a forensic attribution double game, for example by pretending that the spoken language of the malware creator was not American English, but Chinese, but then showing attempts to conceal the use of Chinese, drawing forensic investigators even more strongly to the wrong conclusion, --- but there are other possibilities, such as hiding fake error messages.

The Marble Framework is used for obfuscation only and does not contain any vulnerabilties or exploits by itself.

Part One of two parts.

Most Americans don’t pay much attention to what the government does in foreign nations, and even less attention to what it has done in the past. There’s nothing inherently wrong with this focus on the here-and-now, but contemplation beyond the usual horizons is well-advised. Not for the usual high-minded reasons offered by multiculturalist do-gooders, but because what the government—and those who pull its strings—have done in foreign lands for the past seventy years is their template for what they plan here at home.

The group that led the US through World War II was determined to preserve, perpetuate, and extend its global dominance. With the establishment of the Office of Strategic Services (OSS), centralized, coordinated intelligence had come into its own. After the war President Truman dissolved the OSS, but signed the National Security Act of 1947, which established the CIA. With a secret executive order in 1952, he also established the NSA. Although the agencies were sold to Truman as necessary instruments for gathering and analyzing foreign intelligence, rather than operational assignments, they soon were engaging in both domestic and foreign operations. In 1963, a month after President Kennedy’s assassination, former president Truman’s letter to the Washington Post (http://www.maebrussell.com/Prouty/Harry%20Truman%27s%20CIA%20article.html) deplored what the CIA had become.

For some time I have been disturbed by the way CIA has been diverted from its original assignment. It has become an operational and at times a policy-making arm of the Government. This has led to trouble and may have compounded our difficulties in several explosive areas. Later, Truman told biographer Merle Miller that setting up the CIA was “a mistake (https://mises.org/blog/truman-was-right-about-cia).”

Truman did not mention what the CIA’s disturbing operational and policy-making roles had been, or in what “explosive areas.” The CIA had sponsored coups in Syria (1949), Iran (1953), Guatemala (1954), Congo (1960), the Dominican Republic (1960), and attempted coups in Indonesia (1958) and Cuba (1961, the Bay of Pigs). While the phrase “regime change” didn’t seep into the popular consciousness until the US’s second Iraq invasion in 2003, it had been standard CIA policy for over five decades. To the limited extent its involvements were acknowledged in the 1950s and 1960s, they were generally characterized as necessary efforts in the struggle against global communism.

What has never been acknowledged is what would have been—if the CIA was involved—a domestic coup, President Kennedy’s assassination. The assassination and its aftermath illustrate the psychological obstacles among the public for those attempting to uncover and expose the intelligence community’s misdeeds. Notwithstanding gaping holes in the official story, and obvious questions about the motives of Lyndon Johnson and Alan Dulles, the former director of the CIA who had been fired by Kennedy and stage-managed the Warren Commission investigation, most Americans bought the story and asked no questions. For the few that did, the CIA coined the pejorative, “conspiracy theorist.”

The CIA has a chilling catalogue of countermeasures against the US government’s enemies, most developed during the Vietnam War. The heart of the CIA effort was Operation Phoenix, begun in 1965. Phoenix was designed, coordinated, and executed by the agency jointly with the US military and its intelligence units, the South Vietnamese military and its secret police, and Australian special operations forces. Its mission was to neutralize the infrastructure of the National Liberation Front of South Vietnam (NLF or Viet Cong) through infiltration, capture, counter-terrorism, interrogation, and assassination.

Identification of NLF cadres was problematic. Anyone with a score to settle could misidentify enemies as Viet Cong, who would then be captured or killed by US and South Vietnamese troops. Prisoners were taken to interrogation centers, indefinitely detained, tortured, and sometimes murdered. The interrogations were supposedly done by the South Vietnamese under the supervision of the military or CIA, but the torture was an open secret and often performed by US personnel. Prisoners were converted to the South Vietnamese cause and reinserted into the local population or turned into double agents. They had to produce intelligence about the NLF: their families, friends, and hamlets were essentially hostages securing their performance. Prisoners who produced no information or false information under torture were murdered. Undoubtedly some had no “worthwhile” information to give because they weren’t NLF, but innocence was not a recognized defense.

Phoenix terrorized both the North and South Vietnamese. It was essentially a CIA and US military-imposed police state (with the South Vietnamese government as a junior partner) employing standard police-state tactics: surveillance, informants, propaganda, repression, rubber-stamp judicial supervision, indefinite detention, interrogation, torture, and murder. Like all police states, Phoenix was rife with corruption. South Vietnamese officials, CIA agents and contractors, and US military officials made fortunes from blackmail, extortion, bribery, theft, murder-for-hire, black market arms sales, money laundering, drug running, and other illicit endeavors.

During the war the CIA maintained its usual shroud of plausible deniability, helped by the captive US media, which in many cases had been infiltrated by CIA operatives under the auspices of Operation Mockingbird (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Mockingbird). Many of Phoenix’s more sordid aspects were not revealed until after the US left Vietnam, and while nobody claims Phoenix wasn’t dirty (even an anodyne Wikileaks’ article (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phoenix_Program) acknowledges the misdeeds), the extent of the dirtiness remains—as so much of what the CIA does—murky. However, a string of CIA engagements after Vietnam retroactively confirmed the nefarious nature of Phoenix—the program was the template for that later criminality.

It should have raised eyebrows when Ronald Reagan nominated a former director of the CIA, George H.W. Bush, as his vice president, but it didn’t. The evolving Deep State saw Bush, and other “vetted” members of Reagan’s administration, as checks on some of Reagan’s more “radical” impulses and initiatives. CIA operatives had been involved in Watergate. Congressional committees had revealed CIA skullduggery in Vietnam, involvement in political assassination, and illegal domestic surveillance of the war’s critics by many of the intelligence agencies and the FBI. Yet most Americans still held a generally benign view of the intelligence complex.

The Iran-Contra affair should have been a wake-up call. The scandal’s many disturbing skeins and offshoots—the CIA’s subversion of governments and sponsorship of political assassination in Latin America, involvement in the drug trade and money laundering through a shadowy network of financial institutions, and covert weapons transactions—cried out for further investigation, which would have revealed a Phoenix program gone global. Instead, Reagan’s popularity and his begrudging acceptance of responsibility, the administration’s stonewalling of investigations and refusal to release documents on national security grounds, and George W. Bush’s pardons in the final days of his presidency for Reagan administration officials still under indictment managed to shove Iran-Contra down the American memory hole. Reagan and Bush served the Deep State well.

Next: Phoenix in the United States

Intel Official Behind "Unmasking" Of Trump
Associates Is "Very Senior, Very Well Known" (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-03-31/intel-official-behind-unmasking-trump-associates-very-senior-very-well-known)

Day after day, various media outlets, well really mostly the NYT and WaPo, have delivered Trump-administration-incriminating, Russia-link-related tape bombs sourced via leaks (in the hope of keeping the narrative alive and "resisting."). It now turns out, according to FXN report (http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2017/03/31/intelligence-official-who-unmasked-trump-associates-is-very-high-up-source-says.html), that the US official who "unmasked" the names of multiple private citizens affiliated with the Trump team is someone "very well known, very high up, very senior in the intelligence world."

As Malia Zimmerman and Adam Housley report (http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2017/03/31/intelligence-official-who-unmasked-trump-associates-is-very-high-up-source-says.html), intelligence and House sources with direct knowledge of the disclosure of classified names (yes, yet another "unnamed source") said that House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes, now knows who is responsible - and that person is not in the FBI (i.e. it is not James Comey)

Housley said his sources were motivated to come forward by a New York Times report yesterday which reportedly outed two people who helped Nunes access information during a meeting in the Old Executive Office Building.However, Housley’s sources claim the two people who helped Nunes "navigate" to the information were not his sources. In fact, Nunes had been aware of the information since January (long before Trump's 'wiretap' tweet) but had been unable to view the documents themselves because of "stonewalling" by the agencies in question.

Our sources: "It had everything to do with hurting and
embarrassing Trump and his team"

1:12 PM - 31 Mar 2017For a private citizen to be “unmasked,” or named, in an intelligence report is extremely rare. Typically, the American is a suspect in a crime, is in danger or has to be named to explain the context of the report.

“The main issue in this case, is not only the unmasking of these names of private citizens, but the spreading of these names for political purposes that have nothing to do with national security or an investigation into Russia’s interference in the U.S. election,” a congressional source close to the investigation told Fox News (http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2017/03/31/intelligence-official-who-unmasked-trump-associates-is-very-high-up-source-says.html).

The White House, meanwhile, is urging Nunes and his colleagues to keep pursuing what improper surveillance and leaks may have occurred before Trump took office. They’ve been emboldened in the wake of March 2 comments from former Obama administration official Evelyn Farkas, who on MSNBC suggested her former colleagues tried to gather material on Trump team contacts with Russia.

White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer said Friday her comments and other reports raise “serious” concerns about whether there was an “organized and widespread effort by the Obama administration to use and leak highly sensitive intelligence information for political purposes.”
“Dr. Farkas’ admissions alone are devastating,” he said.

Clearly this confirms what Evelyn Farakas said, (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-03-29/smoking-gun-obama-defense-deputy-slips-live-tv-reveals-spying-trump-team-and-leaking) accidentally implicated the Obama White House in the surveillance of Trump's campaign staff:

The Trump folks, if they found out how we knew what we knew about the Trump staff dealing with Russians, that they would try to compromise those sources and methods, meaning we would not longer have access to that intelligence.
Furthermore, Farkas effectively corroborated a New York Times article (https://ibankcoin.com/zeropointnow/files/2017/03/nyt-1.png) from early March which cited "Former American officials" as their anonymous source regarding efforts to leak this surveillance on the Trump team to Democrats across Washington DC.

* * *

In addition, citizens affiliated with Trump’s team who were unmasked were not associated with any intelligence about Russia or other foreign intelligence, sources confirmed. The initial unmasking led to other surveillance, which led to other private citizens being wrongly unmasked, sources said.

"Unmasking is not unprecedented, but unmasking for political purposes ... specifically of Trump transition team members ... is highly suspect and questionable,” according to an intelligence source. “Opposition by some in the intelligence agencies who were very connected to the Obama and Clinton teams was strong. After Trump was elected, they decided they were going to ruin his presidency by picking them off one by one."

* * *

So if the source isn't Comey, has anyone seen Jim Clapper recently? The answer should emerge soon, meanwhile the ridiculous game with very high stakes of spy vs spy, or in this case source vs source, continues.

The report summarized below in video format at the following link:

Intelligence official who 'unmasked' Trump associates is 'very high up,' source says (http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2017/03/31/intelligence-official-who-unmasked-trump-associates-is-very-high-up-source-says.html)

Clearly, and correctly, President Trump is upset that so little coverage is focused on the increasingly intriguing surveillance state leaks and admissions (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-03-31/intel-official-behind-unmasking-trump-associates-very-senior-very-well-known) - supported by facts and actual evidence - rather than trying to keep the Russians-did-it narrative alive (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-03-30/%E2%80%98russiagate%E2%80%99-failing-and-its-supporters-are-getting-concerned) in a desperate effort to avoid any blame or self-reflection with regard the election, the Clinton campaign, or the post-election division being sponsored by leftists everywhere.

But then again, as Upton Sinclair famously wrote, "It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends upon his not understanding it!"

Since 2007, the DEA has seized more than $4 billion in cash from people suspected of involvement with the drug trade. But 81 percent of those seizures, totaling $3.2 billion, were conducted administratively, meaning no civil or criminal charges were brought against the owners of the cash and no judicial review of the seizures ever occurred.

The Fourth Turning:
Why American 'Crisis' May Last Until 2030

Published on Apr 1, 2017

Above is a video narrated by Hedgeye Demography Sector Head Neil Howe describing the generational theory put forth in his 1997 classic “The Fourth Turning,” co-authored with William Strauss.

Neil’s work has influenced politicians from Newt Gingrich to Al Gore and all of it culminates in a grand theory advanced in The Fourth Turning. According to Time magazine, President Donald Trump’s influential chief political strategist Steve Bannon was “captivated” by the book.

FOURTH TURNING – SOCIAL & CULTURAL
DISTRESS DIVIDING THE NATION (https://www.theburningplatform.com/2015/11/27/fourth-turning-social-cultural-distress-dividing-the-nation/)
By Adminstrator
November 27, 2015 (https://www.theburningplatform.com/2015/11/27/fourth-turning-social-cultural-distress-dividing-the-nation/)
I wrote the first three parts of this article back in September and planned to finish it in early October, but life intervened and truthfully I don’t think I was ready to confront how bad things will likely get as this Fourth Turning moves into the violent, chaotic war stage just over the horizon. The developments in the Middle East, Europe, U.S., China and across the globe in the last months have confirmed my belief war drums are beating louder, global war beckons, and much bloodshed will be the result. Fourth Turnings proceed at their own pace within the 20 to 25 year crisis framework, but there is one guarantee – they never de-intensify as they progress. Just as Winter gets colder, stormier and more bitter as you proceed from December through February, Fourth Turnings get nastier, grimmer, more perilous, with our way of life hanging in the balance.

In Part 1 (http://www.theburningplatform.com/2015/09/10/fourth-turning-crisis-of-trust/) of this article I discussed the catalyst spark which ignited this Fourth Turning (https://www.amazon.com/dp/0767900464?tag=thebur01-20&camp=0&creative=0&linkCode=as1&creativeASIN=0767900464&adid=0VTFPQQFCAV7FYWEMDZT&) and the seemingly delayed regeneracy. In Part 2 (http://www.theburningplatform.com/2015/09/14/fourth-turning-crisis-of-trust-part-2/) I pondered possible Grey Champion prophet generation leaders who could arise during the regeneracy. In Part 3 (http://www.theburningplatform.com/2015/09/27/fourth-turning-crisis-of-trust-part-3/) I focused on the economic channel of distress which is likely to be the primary driving force in the next phase of this Crisis. In Part 4 I will assess the social and cultural channels of distress dividing the nation, Part 5 the technological, ecological, political, military channels of distress likely to burst forth with the molten ingredients of this Fourth Turning (https://www.amazon.com/dp/0767900464?tag=thebur01-20&camp=0&creative=0&linkCode=as1&creativeASIN=0767900464&adid=0VTFPQQFCAV7FYWEMDZT&), and finally in Part 6 our rendezvous with destiny, with potential climaxes to this Winter of our discontent.

https://lisahavennews.files.wordpress.com/2015/01/ahead1.jpg?w=640

The road ahead will be distressful for everyone living in the U.S., as we experience the horrors of war, economic collapse, civil chaos, political upheaval, and the tearing of society’s social fabric. The pain and suffering being experienced across the globe today will not bypass the people of the United States. Winter has arrived and lethal storms are gathering in the distance. Don’t think you can escape. You can prepare, but this Crisis will reshape our society for better or worse, and you cannot sidestep the consequences or cruel environment we must survive.

“Reflect on what happens when a terrible winter blizzard strikes. You hear the weather warning but probably fail to act on it. The sky darkens. Then the storm hits with full fury, and the air is a howling whiteness. One by one, your links to the machine age break down. Electricity flickers out, cutting off the TV. Batteries fade, cutting off the radio. Phones go dead. Roads become impossible, and cars get stuck. Food supplies dwindle. Day to day vestiges of modern civilization – bank machines, mutual funds, mass retailers, computers, satellites, airplanes, governments – all recede into irrelevance. Picture yourself and your loved ones in the midst of a howling blizzard that lasts several years. Think about what you would need, who could help you, and why your fate might matter to anybody other than yourself. That is how to plan for a saecular winter. Don’t think you can escape the Fourth Turning. History warns that a Crisis will reshape the basic social and economic environment that you now take for granted.” – Strauss & Howe – The Fourth Turning (https://www.amazon.com/dp/0767900464?tag=thebur01-20&camp=0&creative=0&linkCode=as1&creativeASIN=0767900464&adid=0VTFPQQFCAV7FYWEMDZT&)

Social Distress

The vast and growing Grand Canyon sized gap between the haves and have nots, and the societal implications of an elitist uber-wealthy minority capturing the levers of our economic, financial, and political systems, using that control to further enrich themselves at the expense of the isolated working class, can be clearly understood by following the dialogue between three billionaires chatting on stage at a conference thrown by a convicted Wall Street criminal.

Sheryl Sandberg: “Yeah, so let’s follow up on a bunch of the things we were talking about. Let’s start with income inequality.”

Hank Paulson: “Ok, well.. income inequality. I think this is something we’ve all thought about. You know I was working on that topic when I was still at Goldman Sachs..”

Robert Rubin: “In which direction? You were working on increasing it.”
Hank Paulson then bursts out laughing: “Yeah! We were making it wider!”

http://www.zerohedge.com/sites/default/files/images/user92183/imageroot/2015/09/PaulsonLaughing_0.png

Paulson and Rubin spent vast portions of their lives working for the vampire squid on the face of America – Goldman Sachs. This firm represents everything wrong with our social order, as they use all means (legal or illegal) to enrich themselves, whether it be back stabbing clients, double crossing partners, eviscerating vulnerable competitors, robbing the poor, rigging markets, buying influence, placing executives in the highest levels of government, or screwing the taxpayer when their risky gambles blow up the world. Paulson and Rubin are the perfect representatives of the .1% ruling class who protect their interests and the interests of their crony capitalist colleagues at all costs. They truly believe they are shrewder, more astute, cleverer, deserving of the billions they have absconded through rigging the markets, should be running the country behind the scenes, and merit the worship of the lowly peasantry.

The gap between the richest 1% and the bottom 90% has never been wider in history. The previous largest gap occurred in 1929, at the start of the last Fourth Turning (https://www.amazon.com/dp/0767900464?tag=thebur01-20&camp=0&creative=0&linkCode=as1&creativeASIN=0767900464&adid=0VTFPQQFCAV7FYWEMDZT&). When the real median household income hasn’t advanced in the last 26 years and men’s real wages are where they were in 1971, while CEOs of S&P 500 companies make 331 times their workers and Wall Street hedge fund managers make billions while paying no taxes, you have building anger, disillusionment and calls for retribution.

Some people are waking up to the fact the Ben Bernanke led Federal Reserve and the Hank Paulson/Tim Geithner led Treasury saved their buddies on Wall Street while throwing the people on Main Street under the bus. When Wall Street’s leveraged risk bets pay off, they reap all the riches – as is happening today. When their colossal wagers go bad, the propaganda about systematic failure is rolled out and the American people are stuck with the losses. The goal has always been to revive the stock market and make sure the Wall Street banks continue to generate billions in profits, while leaving the taxpayer on the hook for their failed bets.

The OWS 'Occupy Movement' and Tea Party were both grass roots initiated movements as a societal response to the distress created by Wall Street and their government crony cohorts. The Wall Street banks colluded with DHS and captured politicians of both parties to crush OWS and subvert the Tea Party. The Deep State’s success in squashing dissent from what they considered the lowly peasants has only been temporarily papered over by the $10 trillion of debt issued to keep the masses sedated, deluded and ignorant about the true nature of the ongoing crisis. The storyline about the 1% is misleading, as many people in the 1% are small business owners, doctors, and professional workers. The true story is the exponential wealth increase of the .1% over the last 35 years as the financialization of the economy has enriched psychopathic, highly educated men who produce nothing but misery, debt, and ultimately social unrest.

http://static.safehaven.com/authors/burningplatform/39681_d.png

Decomposing the 1% reveals the top .1% increasing their share of the national wealth from less than 9% in 1980 to over 21% today. These are the corporate CEO’s buying back their company stock at all-time highs in order to boost their stock based compensation, Wall Street executives who committed the largest control fraud in world history while unabashedly flaunting laws & regulations, hedge fund managers who manipulate and rig the markets while paying no taxes on their billion dollar profits, and billionaire cronies who profit from the military industrial complex and sick care complex by paying off politicians to write laws in their favor and funnel government contracts to them. The sacking and pillaging of the nation’s wealth by psychopaths who are never satisfied with their current vast level of riches, power and control, exposes itself in the tremendous recovery on Wall Street and the ongoing depression on Main Street.

A simmering rage is bubbling below the surface as 20% of American households rely on food stamps to survive, the percentage of Americans in the labor force stands at a four decade low, real household income remains stagnant at 1988 levels, corporate profits have reached record levels while corporations continue to fire Americans – shipping their jobs overseas, and the six mega-corporations representing the mainstream media cover up the truth, mislead the public with propaganda, while celebrating the .1% as saviors of our economy. There is nothing more volatile to societal stability than millions of unemployed men, growing angry and resentful towards the ruling class for their lot in life.

The vast gulf between the haves and have nots will fuel further violence between the classes, as our fraying society is already seething with anger between races, religions, political parties, and genders. The increasingly brutal police state, militarization of local police forces, shaking down of citizens through fines, and unlawful surveillance of our electronic communications, will lead to a backlash against police.

The Black Lives Matter movement, begun after a number of police brutality incidents against black men, has been hijacked by politically motived race baiters and is exacerbating tensions between blacks and whites. The false storyline perpetuated by the media disregards the fact blacks, who represent 13% of the population, commit 22% of all violent crimes and 93% of black shooting victims are shot by other blacks. The white population, abiding by laws, is getting sick of being blamed for the gun violence and lawlessness in liberal ghetto bastions like Chicago, Detroit, Baltimore, St. Louis and Philadelphia.

http://static.safehaven.com/authors/burningplatform/39681_f.jpg

Even though the vast majority of gun related crimes happen in urban ghettos and the much publicized mass shootings are committed by mentally deranged young men on psychotropic drugs, liberal control freak politicians use scare tactics and misinformation in their effort to grab the guns of law abiding Americans living in rural regions. It is the elitist hypocrite politicians living on the coasts, protected by armed guards, who want to eviscerate the 2nd Amendment, and think it is fine for the 4th Amendment to be disregarded by police thugs across the land. Disarming the citizenry is essential to implementing a dictatorial regime. The race wars have intensified, as the Black Lives Matter meme has spread to college campuses in Missouri and in the hallowed Ivy League at Yale and Princeton.

The bullying tactics of the pampered participation trophy generation of entitled millennials, being misled by social justice warrior ideologues, is fueling a backlash by older generations who studied, worked hard, obtained useful college degrees, repaid their student loans, and didn’t use race, gender, or micro-aggressions as excuses when they failed. College campuses, which once championed free speech and free thought, have now become bastions of censorship, left wing ideology, suppression of opinion, shouting down of dissent, thought control, and subduing the rights of the majority for the benefit of an outraged minority who resort to violent rhetoric to achieve their outcomes.

Institutions of higher education have become nothing more than glorified daycare centers for kids who never grew up, learned personal responsibility, or developed critical thinking skills. The feckless college faculty and administrators have allowed financial considerations to override learning, as the curriculum has been dumbed down to meet the degraded capabilities of their high self-esteem/low intelligence students. The reality of an increasingly brutal economic environment and high likelihood of war is about to crash headlong into the coddled, pampered, parent protected, iGadget, facebook worlds of millions of millennials.

They will be nothing but cannon fodder for the Deep State unless they develop a backbone, start thinking critically about what is happening in this world, start dealing with reality, stop trusting the government to save them, and make a stand against the corporate fascist tyranny consuming our nation. The Peter Pan Syndrome, where people with the body of an adult but the mind of a child, increasingly dominate the landscape, as a larger number of supposed adults exhibit emotionally immature behaviors. The self-neutering of young men is the result of twelve years of feminist social engineering in government controlled public schools. The wussificiation is complete.

The combination of social justice warriors, pushing agendas completely out of step with mainstream Americans, and a dying legacy media providing infotainment disguised as news, fuels further cultural distress from coast to coast. With liberalism rampant and dominant on the coasts and conservatism governing the heartland, the cultural divide in the country is a gaping chasm. Average Americans trying to live their lives, pay their bills, and raise families have no strong opinions about gay marriage, men dressing like women, or other deviant behavior performed by consenting adults in the privacy of their own households. But when the liberal media, social justice warriors, and Hollywood elites shove the “right” to gay marriage, the crucifying of people for their religious beliefs, the “courage” of a man pretending to be a woman, and the glorification of abhorrent behavior, down the throats of Americans trying to mind their own business, an unforeseen backlash is inevitable.
The war on the traditional family unit, white males, societal norms, common decency, and community standards has gone too far and the pushback from common decent middle class folks has begun. It is a proven fact that households with married parents are on average wealthier, raise kids who do better in school, can withstand economic setbacks better, and have been the backbone of this country since its inception. The feminist belief that women can raise children without men has proven to be a disaster.

With the percentage of married households plunging from over 70% in 1970 to under 50% today, an ominous tipping point has been reached. Rather than address this truly disastrous problem, the radical feminists and race baiters carry on their culture wars. The social justice warriors, prodded by the liberal media and agenda driven ideologues, are offended by free speech, white people, men, married couples, religious freedom, having to repay loans, gun owners, capitalism, carbon dioxide, meat, yoga and anyone who dares to disagree with their antagonistic, bombastic, vacuous nonsense.

Shockingly, they aren’t offended by the tattooed, pierced freaks roaming the streets, angry because no one will hire them. They aren’t offended by the millions of willfully ignorant, low class army of lazy Obama voters who feel entitled to free housing, free medical care, free food, free phones, and free education at the expense of the working middle class. They aren’t offended by the 70% of black babies born out of wedlock and black men shirking their responsibilities as fathers. They aren’t offended by the rampant criminality and murder rates in the Democrat controlled urban ghettos, created by the welfare policies implemented over the last 50 years.
They aren’t offended by 93% of black murders being committed by blacks. They aren’t offended by a president droning wedding parties and bombing hospitals, while fighting undeclared wars in foreign lands. They aren’t offended by the widespread Medicare, SSDI, and food stamp fraud, costing taxpayers billions per year. Normal people living normal lives are sick and tired of the hypocritical, hollow horse**** rubbed in their faces by a dying legacy media and agenda driven social networks on a daily basis. The foolishness and lunacy of these feckless feeble minded warriors against normalcy will be exposed when confronted by the harsh reality of a Fourth Turning (https://www.amazon.com/dp/0767900464?tag=thebur01-20&camp=0&creative=0&linkCode=as1&creativeASIN=0767900464&adid=0VTFPQQFCAV7FYWEMDZT&).

The rise of Donald Trump and Ben Carson in the early polls for Republican presidential candidate is being fueled by a rising anger and discontent with the corporate media promoting offensive social agendas, the flaunting of the Constitution by a president ruling by executive order, a GOP establishment corrupted by power and unanswerable to their constituents, the disinterest of politicians in both parties in securing our porous southern borders from foreign invasion by illegal hordes. Now the repercussions of Obama ignoring the threats of Islamic extremism and allowing tens of thousands of undocumented Syrian refugees to flood into the country immediately overwhelming our insolvent welfare system and refusing to assimilate into our culture as they worship at mosques where they are taught to hate everything about American culture, is further fueling a political backlash.
As Aldous Huxley realized six decades ago, the truth is unimportant to those controlling the “free” press and shallow distractions will keep the masses occupied while the controllers achieve their goals.

“In regard to propaganda the early advocates of universal literacy and a free press envisaged only two possibilities: the propaganda might be true, or it might be false. They did not foresee what in fact has happened, above all in our Western capitalist democracies — the development of a vast mass communications industry, concerned in the main neither with the true nor the false, but with the unreal, the more or less totally irrelevant. In a word, they failed to take into account man’s almost infinite appetite for distractions.” – Aldous Huxley, 1958, in the article The Capitalist Free Press (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0060776099?creativeASIN=0060776099&linkCode=w00&linkId=WIJM2OKBJQPMVNXY&ref_=as_sl_pc_tf_til&tag=thebur01-20)

The media will use their standard propaganda techniques of showing crying women and children to tug at the heartstrings of a naïve, unaware populace to allow refugees from a conflict created by the U.S. in Syria to come into our country. You know the tired rhetoric – give us your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free. But this is a Fourth Turning (https://www.amazon.com/dp/0767900464?tag=thebur01-20&camp=0&creative=0&linkCode=as1&creativeASIN=0767900464&adid=0VTFPQQFCAV7FYWEMDZT&) where the harsh reality crashes headlong into rhetoric, memes, and storylines.

Whether the U.S. government is responsible or not for creating the wave of Islamic radicals practicing their warped religious beliefs across the globe by committing murder against innocent people, the fact remains that only Muslims are waging this war against non-believers. There are no Catholics, Baptists, Lutherans, Jews, Buddhists, or atheists spreading their religious beliefs by committing acts of terror or waging war. A religious war is brewing and the consequences will be far reaching and bloody for those practicing Islam. There may be only a small minority of radical jihadists, but the silence of the majority speaks volumes to non-Muslims around the world.

As this Fourth Turning (https://www.amazon.com/dp/0767900464?tag=thebur01-20&camp=0&creative=0&linkCode=as1&creativeASIN=0767900464&adid=0VTFPQQFCAV7FYWEMDZT&) continues to intensify, the bowing down to political correctness and agendas of social justice warrior bigots by traditional minded Americans is going to stop. The pushback may be violent, as the aggressive tactics of these free speech hating fascists is met with armed confrontation they aren’t anticipating. These “warriors” aren’t exactly the Hero generation who did the heavy lifting during the last Fourth Turning (https://www.amazon.com/dp/0767900464?tag=thebur01-20&camp=0&creative=0&linkCode=as1&creativeASIN=0767900464&adid=0VTFPQQFCAV7FYWEMDZT&). Privileged, entitled, ignorant millennials bullying weak kneed college professors and milquetoast administrators on the campuses of liberal arts colleges isn’t exactly storming the beaches of Normandy or battling through the jungles on Guadalcanal.

When confronted with Americans who have seen their standard of living falling for the last twenty five years and are sick and tired of hearing drivel about white privilege, black lives matter, safe spaces, gay and transgender “rights”, micro-aggressions, rape culture, misogyny, $15 minimum wage, and a myriad of other offenses against feminism, these easily offended “warriors” will piss their pants. These trivialities will seem so quaint when they are confronted with an angry guy with a gun on the streets or when they are told to report for duty as we wage war with Russia and China. The foolishness of the culture wars will become strikingly apparent when economic collapse and life or death choices confront our special snowflake generation.

Susan Rice Ordered "Detailed Spreadsheets
Of Intercepted Phone Calls" With Trump Team (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-04-04/susan-rice-ordered-detailed-spreadsheets-intercepted-phone-calls-trump-team)
http://www.zerohedge.com/sites/default/files/pictures/picture-5.jpgby Tyler Durden
Apr 4, 2017 9:10 AM

After it was revealed over the weekend by Mike Cernovich that Susan Rice was the mysterious Obama official behind the "unmasking" of Trump associates, the details behind the extreme measures taken by the Obama administration, including what seems to be personal legal liability for Susan Rice and potentially others, continue to grow more and more disturbing.

This morning, the Daily Caller (http://dailycaller.com/2017/04/03/susan-rice-ordered-spy-agencies-to-produce-detailed-spreadsheets-involving-trump/) has provided new details, courtesy of former U.S. Attorney Joseph diGenova, suggesting that Rice specifically requested that the NSA provide her with "detailed spreadsheets of intercepted phone calls with unmasked Trump associates."
“What was produced by the intelligence community at the request of Ms. Rice were detailed spreadsheets of intercepted phone calls with unmasked Trump associates in perfectly legal conversations with individuals,” diGenova told The Daily Caller News Foundation Investigative Group Monday.

“The overheard conversations involved no illegal activity by anybody of the Trump associates, or anyone they were speaking with,” diGenova said. “In short, the only apparent illegal activity was the unmasking of the people in the calls.”
Meanwhile, Retired Colonel James Waurishuk, an NSC veteran and former deputy director for intelligence at the U.S. Central Command, said that the level of coordination required to pull off such a massive spying operation is staggering and would have required numerous personnel from the White House, NSA, CIA, National Security Council, etc.
“The surveillance initially is the responsibility of the National Security Agency,” Waurishuk said. “They have to abide by this guidance when one of the other agencies says, ‘we’re looking at this particular person which we would like to unmask.’”

“The lawyers and counsel at the NSA surely would be talking to the lawyers and members of counsel at CIA, or at the National Security Council or at the Director of National Intelligence or at the FBI,” he said. “It’s unbelievable of the level and degree of the administration to look for information on Donald Trump and his associates, his campaign team and his transition team. This is really, really serious stuff.”
In other words, it's growing increasingly unlikely that this operation was anything but a direct, targeted attempt of the Obama administration to utilize the full force of the U.S. intelligence apparatus to take down a political adversary.

http://www.zerohedge.com/sites/default/files/images/user230519/imageroot/2017/04/04/2017.04.03%20-%20Susan%20Rice_0.JPG

As Michael Doran points out, if these alleged actions are proven to be accurate then several people within the Obama administration likely committed felonies.
Michael Doran, former NSC senior director, told TheDCNF Monday that “somebody blew a hole in the wall between national security secrets and partisan politics.” This “was a stream of information that was supposed to be hermetically sealed from politics and the Obama administration found a way to blow a hole in that wall.”

Doran charged that potential serious crimes were undertaken because “this is a leaking of signal intelligence.”

“That’s a felony,” he told TheDCNF. “And you can get 10 years for that. It is a tremendous abuse of the system. We’re not supposed to be monitoring American citizens. Bigger than the crime, is the breach of public trust.”

Waurishuk said he was most dismayed that “this is now using national intelligence assets and capabilities to spy on the elected, yet-to-be-seated president.”

“We’re looking at a potential constitutional crisis from the standpoint that we used an extremely strong capability that’s supposed to be used to safeguard and protect the country,” he said. “And we used it for political purposes by a sitting President. That takes on a new precedent.”
Of course, just because Obama used the NSA to try and take down Trump doesn't mean that those allegations that he used the IRS to take out Romney supporters (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2014-05-08/irs-audited-tea-party-donors-ten-times-more-often-regular-americans) in 2012 were true....Scandal-free administration...

Trump signs internet privacy repeal

http://thehill.com/homenews/admi…

The bill caused an uproar when it passed the House and Senate last month, with critics accusing Republicans of selling their constituents' privacy. The resolution also prevents the FCC from adopting similar rules in the future.

"It's shocking that of all the challenges facing this country the Trump administration would prioritize taking away people's privacy," said Craig Aron, CEO of the advocacy group Free Press.

"There is literally no public support for this bill. Its only advocates are the nation's biggest phone, cable and Internet companies. There's no longer any question -- if there ever was -- whose needs this administration intends to serve. But people everywhere are on high alert to the serious threat to the free and open Internet. And they will fight back."

Trump really needs to make a public statement on this. I'm a heavy online shopper and I've seen evidence that they have my ip for years. This bill is not what it's being spinned out to be, and on another thread I addressed this. I'll try to recopy it here but I'm not too good at copying old links et al so forgive me if this is messed up:

Flake Introduces Resolution to Protect Consumers from Overreaching Internet Regulation
Posted on Mar 07 2017

Washington, D.C. – U.S. Sen. Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.), chairman of the Senate Judiciary Subcommittee on Privacy, Technology and the Law, today introduced a resolution to repeal economically harmful broadband regulations issued by the Obama administration.

The resolution would not change or lessen existing consumer privacy regulations. It is intended to block an attempt by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to expand its regulatory jurisdiction and impose prescriptive data restrictions on internet service providers. These restrictions have the potential to negatively impact consumers and the future of internet innovation.

Flake’s resolution would provide for congressional disapproval of the FCC rule under the Congressional Review Act, a 1996 law that empowers Congress to repeal federal regulations. The resolution would also prevent the FCC from issuing similarly harmful regulations in the future.

“The FCC's midnight regulation does nothing to protect consumer privacy. It is unnecessary, confusing and adds yet another innovation-stifling regulation to the internet,” said Flake. “My resolution is the first step toward restoring the FTC's light-touch, consumer-friendly approach. It will not change or lessen existing consumer privacy protections. It empowers consumers to make informed choices on if and how their data can be shared.”

On March 1, 2017, Flake wrote an op-ed for The Wall Street Journal laying out his argument for the resolution. View the op-ed here.

On Jan. 29, 2016, Flake sent a letter to FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler expressing concerns that the FCC is overreaching its authority with its planned broadband regulations. The signed letter can be viewed here.
On May 11, 2016, Flake chaired a Senate Judiciary Subcommittee on Privacy, Technology and the Law hearing seeking answers on the legality of the proposed FCC rules and the consequences for consumers and the future of the internet. More information on the hearing can be found here.

Cernovich Explains How He
Learned About Susan Rice (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-04-03/cernovich-explains-how-he-learned-about-susan-rice)

Ever since Mike Cernovich dropped the bombshell report over the weekend outing Obama's National Security Advisor, Susan Rice, as the person behind the unmasking of the identity of various members of Trump's team who were 'incidentally' surveilled during the 2016 campaign (see "Confirmed: Susan Rice "Unmasked" Trump Team (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-04-03/confirmed-susan-rice-unmasked-trump-team)"), a report which was subsequently confirmed by Eli Lake of Bloomberg (https://www.bloomberg.com/view/articles/2017-04-03/top-obama-adviser-sought-names-of-trump-associates-in-intel) earlier this morning, everyone has been wondering who within the Trump White House or the intelligence community supplied him with such a massive scoop.

But, as it turns out, Cernovich didn't need a 'deep throat' within the NSA or CIA for his blockbuster scoop, all he needed was some well-placed sources inside of a couple of America's corrupt mainstream media outlets. As Cernovich explains below, his sources for the Susan Rice story were actually folks working at Bloomberg and the New York Times who revealed that both Eli Lake (Bloomberg) and Maggie Haberman (NYT) were sitting on the Susan Rice story in order to protect the Obama administration.

"Maggie Haberman had it. She will not run any articles that are critical of the Obama administration."

"Eli Lake had it. He didn't want to run it and Bloomberg didn't want to run it because it vindicates Trump's claim that he had been spied upon. And Eli Lake is a 'never Trumper.' Bloomberg was a 'never Trump' publication."

"I'm showing you the politics of 'real journalism'. 'Real journalism' is that Bloomberg had it and the New York Times had it but they wouldn't run it because they don't want to run any stories that would make Obama look bad or that will vindicate Trump. They only want to run stories that make Trump look bad so that's why they sat on it."

"So where did I get the story? I didn't get it from the intelligence community. Everybody's trying to figure out where I got it from. I got it from somebody who works in one of those media companies. I have spies in every media organization. I got people in news rooms. I got it from a source within the news room who said 'Cernovich, they're sitting on this story, they're not going to run it, so you can run it'."

"If you're at Bloomberg, I have people in there. If you're at the New York Times, I have people in there. LA Times, Washington Post, you name it, I have my people in there. I got IT people in every major news room in this country. The IT people see every email so that's how I knew it."

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DT_gzLWbXHA
And while this could certainly be interpreted as a clever ploy to protect his real sources, Cernovich's video comments seem to be validated by both his tweet from yesterday afternoon...

...and the fact that Eli Lake of Bloomberg was able to conveniently confirm Cernovich's story with his own article this morning.

All of which just begs the question of what other stories the mainstream media is sitting on in an effort to protect their chosen candidates.

Media & Obama Collude
to Hack Trump Transition (https://www.theburningplatform.com/2017/04/04/media-obama-collude-to-hack-trump-transition/#more-147286)

http://curezone.com/upload/_T_Forums/Turiya_Files_/AVALON/TRUMP/FLYNN_DEEPSTA/Media_Obama_Collude_to_Hack_Trump_Transition.png

by Uncola (http://www.thetollonline.com/) via TheBurningPlatform.com (https://www.theburningplatform.com/)

Staying true to form, the same presidential administration that weaponized (http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2016/jun/5/irs-reveals-list-of-tea-party-groups-targeted-for-/) the Internal Revenue Service against its political opponents earlier this decade, has now been discovered to have utilized former National Security Advisor, Susan Rice, to, most recently, illegally “unmask” members of the Trump Administration in order to provide their names to the mainstream media in efforts to politically undermine the incoming presidential team.

Rice, coincidently, is the same woman who lied to the national media on multiple occasions by blaming the September 11, 2012, attack on the U.S. Embassy in Benghazi, Libya on a YouTube video.

On April 3, 2017, in response to an initial report by the journalist and author, Mike Cernovich (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-04-03/cernovich-explains-how-he-learned-about-susan-rice), both Bloomberg (https://www.bloomberg.com/view/articles/2017-04-03/top-obama-adviser-sought-names-of-trump-associates-in-intel) and Fox News (http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2017/04/03/susan-rice-requested-to-unmask-names-trump-transition-officials-sources-say.html) confirmed the identity of Obama’s former National Security Advisor, Rice, as the culprit who feloniously “unmasked” the identity of those within President Donald Trump’s Administration for the purposes of political expediency, while under the guise of foreign surveillance.

According to former U.S. Attorney Joseph diGenova (http://dailycaller.com/2017/04/03/susan-rice-ordered-spy-agencies-to-produce-detailed-spreadsheets-involving-trump/):

Former President Barack Obama’s national security adviser Susan Rice ordered U.S. spy agencies to produce “detailed spreadsheets” of legal phone calls involving Donald Trump and his aides
But,

the only apparent illegal activity was the unmasking of the people in the calls.
Although Rice has denied (http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2017/04/04/susan-rice-msnbc-interview-andrea-mitchell/) allegations that she “prepared” a “spreadsheet” of Trump’s transition staff whose identities were obtained under “incidental surveillance”, the Daily Caller claims she did not deny that she “ordered” the spreadsheets to be produced (http://dailycaller.com/2017/04/03/susan-rice-ordered-spy-agencies-to-produce-detailed-spreadsheets-involving-trump/) and, that:

her [Rice’s] denial would come as quite a surprise to the government officials who have reviewed dozens of those spreadsheets.
Regarding former president Obama, Rice also verified (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5LxnJMnpfGI) that:

…the president requested the compliation of the intelligence, which was ultimately provided in January [2017].
The illegal actions of Susan Rice, while operating at the behest of former President Obama in order to politically undermine the Trump Administration’s transition to power; now appears to have been the cause behind Trump’s first National Security Advisor pick, Michael Flynn, to step down over illicit media leaks of Flynn’s phone conversations with Russian Ambassador, Sergey I. Kislyak.

The actions by Rice may have also made clear the motive behind an unprecedented action that was taken by President Obama in the final days of his presidency.

According to a January 12, 2017 report (https://www.nytimes.com/2017/01/12/us/politics/nsa-gets-more-latitude-to-share-intercepted-communications.html?_r=3) in the New York Times:

In its final days, the Obama administration has expanded the power of the National Security Agency to share globally intercepted personal communications with the government’s 16 other intelligence agencies before applying privacy protections.

The new rules significantly relax longstanding limits on what the N.S.A. may do with the information gathered by its most powerful surveillance operations, which are largely unregulated by American wiretapping laws. These include collecting satellite transmissions, phone calls and emails that cross network switches abroad, and messages between people abroad that cross domestic network switches
In spite of the recent extraordinary revelations regarding the unparalleled historical actions taken by Rice and the Obama Administration, which may even surpass former President Nixon’s Watergate scandal by magnitudes exceeding tenfold; the five corporations comprising the Mainstream Media (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Media_cross-ownership_in_the_United_States) immediately began a massive conspiracy of concealment.

Mike Cernovich (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-04-03/cernovich-explains-how-he-learned-about-susan-rice), the aforementioned journalist who first broke the revelations regarding Rice, made the following claims regarding the story:

Bloomberg had it and the New York Times had it but they wouldn’t run it because they don’t want to run any stories that would make Obama look bad or that will vindicate Trump. They only want to run stories that make Trump look bad so that’s why they sat on it.

https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/95/33/29/9533293d87b1b8f1bfad1d618df09cc8.jpg

Seemingly in line with previous reports on how “Obama’s White House weaponized” (http://thehill.com/blogs/pundits-blog/the-administration/326331-how-obamas-white-house-weaponized-the-media-against#.WN2IVaoTssw.twitter) the media against Trump, The Washington Post, on April 4, 2017, the day after Former National Security Advisor Rice’s story broke, refused to run any reports on the “unmasking” allegations and, instead, ran an article on Trump’s “chaotic presidency” (http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/%e2%80%98it-went-off-the-rails-almost-immediately%e2%80%99-how-trump%e2%80%99s-messy-transition-led-to-a-chaotic-presidency/ar-BBzjgCp?li=BBnb7Kz&ocid=iehp).

ABC and NBC have also chosen to overlook (http://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/nb/nicholas-fondacaro/2017/04/03/abc-nbc-cover-revelation-susan-rice-ordered-trump-aides) the breaking news on Rice, and CNN has instructed its viewers to ignore the story while claiming it to be demonstrably untrue (https://news.grabien.com/story-cnn-goes-rampage-against-susan-rice-bombshell-instructs-view).

Although some mainstream media outlets have released articles (http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/experts-say-susan-rice-had-every-right-to-request-%e2%80%98unmasking%e2%80%99-in-intel-reports/ar-BBzibso?li=BBnb7Kz&ocid=iehp) attempting to explain how Rice’s actions were legal, they did not address the illegality of the U.S. intelligence community’s collusion in the leaking of former National Security Advisor, Mike Flynn’s, name to the press.

Neither are any reports being made throughout the mainstream media regarding Susan Rice’s March 2017 interview on PBS News Hour (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sH0akjRDJsY&feature=youtu.be), where she originally denied any knowledge, whatsoever, regarding the “unmasking” of those on Trump’s transition team.

Unsurprisingly, since Rice’s lips were moving, her lies contradict the statements of Dr. Evelyn Farkas, a former Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense under Obama, who has acknowledged (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cMT9zdnZm9I) the dissemination of incidental surveillance on Trump and his aides.

Given what we know now about Rice, the actual surveillance on Trump, the subsequent leaks to the press, and the recent reporting by the mainstream media; other comments made by Dr. Farkas last fall in Warsaw, Poland, may now have new meaning.

On October 26, 2016, at the Warsaw Security Forum’s Plenary Session entitled “The US Global Leadership: What to expect at November 8?”, Farkas stated the following (see the 10 minute, 54-second mark of this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pl_RATH89UM)):

And actually, if Donald Trump were elected I believe he’d be impeached pretty quickly or somebody else would have to take over government, and I’m not even joking.
Farkas sure seemed confident at that time. Why?

Well, based upon the November 7, 2016, Heat Street article (https://heatst.com/world/exclusive-fbi-granted-fisa-warrant-covering-trump-camps-ties-to-russia/) by the reporter Louise Mensch; in addition to the “October 12, 2016, rumors of a FISA warrant” obtained by the “FBI’s counter-intelligence arm”, it appears the warrant:

was granted in connection with the investigation of suspected activity between the server and two banks, SVB Bank and Alfa Bank. However, it is thought in the intelligence community that the warrant covers any ‘US person’ connected to this investigation, and thus covers Donald Trump and at least three further men who have either formed part of his campaign or acted as his media surrogates.
What, then, did former President Obama, his National Security Advisor, Susan Rice, and former Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense, Evelyn Farkas, know?

When did they know it?

Enquiring minds want to know.

Did Obama National Security Advisor Susan Rice order the unmasking of the identity of Americans affiliated with the Trump campaign for political reasons? Has the intelligence community been drawn into politics...or were they always there? This should be expected in the surveillance state.

Susan Rice’s White House Unmasking:
A Watergate-style Scandal (http://www.nationalreview.com/article/446415/susan-rice-unmasking-trump-campaign-members-obama-administration-fbi-cia-nsa)

http://i2.cdn.cnn.com/cnnnext/dam/assets/160513215128-exp-gps-rice-sot-hiroshima-00003001-exlarge-169.jpg

by Andrew C. McCarthy
April 4, 2017 12:08 PM
Her interest was not in national security but to advance the political interests of the Democratic party. The thing to bear in mind is that the White House does not do investigations. Not criminal investigations, not intelligence investigations.

Remember that.

Why is that so important in the context of explosive revelations that Susan Rice, President Obama’s national-security adviser, confidant, and chief dissembler, called for the “unmasking” of Trump campaign and transition officials whose identities and communications were captured in the collection of U.S. intelligence on foreign targets?

Because we’ve been told for weeks that any unmasking of people in Trump’s circle that may have occurred had two innocent explanations: (1) the FBI’s investigation of Russian meddling in the election and (2) the need to know, for purposes of understanding the communications of foreign intelligence targets, the identities of Americans incidentally intercepted or mentioned. The unmasking, Obama apologists insist, had nothing to do with targeting Trump or his people.

That won’t wash.

In general, it is the FBI that conducts investigations that bear on American citizens suspected of committing crimes or of acting as agents of foreign powers. In the matter of alleged Russian meddling, the investigative camp also includes the CIA and the NSA. All three agencies conducted a probe and issued a joint report in January. That was after Obama, despite having previously acknowledged that the Russian activity was inconsequential (http://www.nationalreview.com/article/446344/democrats-russsian-hacking-allegations-interference-2016-presidential-election-republicans-donald-trump), suddenly made a great show of ordering an inquiry (http://www.nationalreview.com/article/443655/intelligence-report-fbi-cia-nsa-russia-vladimir-putin-hillary-clinton-john-podesta-donald-trump) and issuing sanctions.

Consequently, if unmasking was relevant to the Russia investigation, it would have been done by those three agencies. And if it had been critical to know the identities of Americans caught up in other foreign intelligence efforts, the agencies that collect the information and conduct investigations would have unmasked it. Because they are the agencies that collect and refine intelligence “products” for the rest of the “intelligence community,” they are responsible for any unmasking; and they do it under “minimization” standards that FBI Director James Comey, in recent congressional testimony, described as “obsessive” in their determination to protect the identities and privacy of Americans.

Understand: There would have been no intelligence need for Susan Rice to ask for identities to be unmasked. If there had been a real need to reveal the identities — an intelligence need based on American interests — the unmasking would have been done by the investigating agencies.

The national-security adviser is not an investigator. She is a White House staffer. The president’s staff is a consumer of intelligence, not a generator or collector of it. If Susan Rice was unmasking Americans, it was not to fulfill an intelligence need based on American interests; it was to fulfill a political desire based on Democratic-party interests.

The FBI, CIA, and NSA generate or collect the intelligence in, essentially, three ways: conducting surveillance on suspected agents of foreign powers under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA), and carrying out more-sweeping collections under two other authorities — a different provision of FISA, and a Reagan-era executive order that has been amended several times over the ensuing decades, EO 12,333.

As Director Comey explained (http://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2017/03/20/trey_gowdy_grills_comey_who_has_the_power_to_unmask_a_us_citizens_communications.html), in answering questions posed by Representative Trey Gowdy (R., S.C.), those three agencies do collection, investigation, and analysis. In general, they handle any necessary unmasking — which, due to the aforementioned privacy obsessiveness, is extremely rare. Unlike Democratic-party operatives whose obsession is vanquishing Republicans, the three agencies have to be concerned about the privacy rights of Americans. If they’re not, their legal authority to collect the intelligence — a vital national-security power — could be severely curtailed when it periodically comes up for review by Congress, as it will later this year.

Those three collecting agencies — FBI, CIA, and NSA — must be distinguished from other components of the government, such as the White House. Those other components, Comey elaborated, “are consumers of our products.” That is, they do not collect raw intelligence and refine it into useful reports — i.e., reports that balance informational value and required privacy protections. They read those reports and make policy recommendations based on them. White House staffers are not supposed to be in the business of controlling the content of the reports; they merely act on the reports.

Thus, Comey added, these consumers “can ask the collectors to unmask.” But the unmasking authority “resides with those who collected the information.”

Of course, the consumer doing the asking in this case was not just any government official. We’re talking about Susan Rice. This was Obama’s right hand doing the asking. If she made an unmasking “request,” do you suppose anyone at the FBI, CIA, or NSA was going to say no?

That brings us to three interesting points.

The first involves political intrusion into law enforcement — something that the White House is supposed to avoid. (You may remember that Democrats ran Bush attorney general Alberto Gonzales out of town over suspicions about it.) As I have noted repeatedly, in publishing the illegally leaked classified information about former national-security adviser Michael Flynn’s communications with Russian ambassador Sergey Kislyak, the New York Times informs us that “Obama advisers” and “Obama officials” were up to their eyeballs in the investigation:

Obama advisers heard separately from the F.B.I. about Mr. Flynn’s conversation with Mr. Kislyak, whose calls were routinely monitored by American intelligence agencies that track Russian diplomats. The Obama advisers grew suspicious that perhaps there had been a secret deal between the incoming team and Moscow, which could violate the rarely enforced, two-century-old Logan Act barring private citizens from negotiating with foreign powers in disputes with the United States.

The Obama officials asked the F.B.I. if a quid pro quo had been discussed on the call, and the answer came back no, according to one of the officials, who like others asked not to be named discussing delicate communications. [Translation: “asked not to be named committing felony unauthorized disclosure of classified information.”] The topic of sanctions came up, they were told, but there was no deal. [Emphasis added.]

It appears very likely that Susan Rice was involved in the unmasking of Michael Flynn. Was she also monitoring the FBI’s investigation? Was she involved in the administration’s consideration of (bogus) criminal charges against Flynn? With the subsequent decision to have the FBI interrogate Flynn (or “grill” him, as the Times put it)?

The second point is that, while not a pillar of rectitude, Ms. Rice is not an idiot. Besides being shrewd, she was a highly involved, highly informed consumer of intelligence, and a key Obama political collaborator. Unlike the casual reader, she would have known who the Trump-team players were without needing to have their identities unmasked. Do you really think her purpose in demanding that names be revealed was to enhance her understanding of intelligence about the activities and intentions of foreign targets? Seriously? I’m betting it was so that others down the dissemination chain could see the names of Trump associates — names the investigating agencies that originally collected the information had determined not to unmask.

Third, and finally, let’s consider the dissemination chain Rice had in mind.

The most telling remark that former Obama deputy defense secretary Evelyn Farkas (http://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2017/03/a-times-source-outs-herself.php) made in her now-infamous MSNBC interview was the throw-away line at the end: “That’s why you have all the leaking.”

Put this in context:
Farkas had left the Obama administration in 2015, subsequently joining the presidential campaign of, yes, Hillary Clinton — Trump’s opponent. She told MSNBC that she had been encouraging her former Obama-administration colleagues and members of Congress to seek “as much information as you can” from the intelligence community.

“That’s why you have the leaking.”

To summarize:
At a high level, officials like Susan Rice had names unmasked that would not ordinarily be unmasked. That information was then being pushed widely throughout the intelligence community in unmasked form . . . particularly after Obama, toward the end of his presidency, suddenly — and seemingly apropos of nothing — changed the rules (http://circa.com/politics/barack-obama-changed-how-nsa-intercepts-of-americans-like-donald-trump-could-be-shared) so that all of the intelligence agencies (not just the collecting agencies) could have access to raw intelligence information.

As we know, the community of intelligence agencies leaks like a sieve, and the more access there is to juicy information, the more leaks there are. Meanwhile, former Obama officials and Clinton-campaign advisers, like Farkas, were pushing to get the information transferred from the intelligence community to members of Congress, geometrically increasing the likelihood of intelligence leaks.

By the way, have you noticed that there have been lots of intelligence leaks in the press?

There’s an old saying in the criminal law:

The best evidence of a conspiracy is success.

The criminal law also has another good rule of thumb:

Consciousness of guilt is best proved by false exculpatory statements. That’s a genre in which Susan Rice has rich experience.

Two weeks ago, she was asked in an interview about allegations by House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes (R., Calif.) that the Obama administration had unmasked Trump-team members.

“I know nothing about this,” (http://freebeacon.com/national-security/flashback-susan-rice-said-i-know-nothing-unmasking-trump-officials/) Rice replied. “I was surprised to see reports from Chairman Nunes on that count today.”

...Well, at least she didn’t blame it on a video.

Intelligence director, Joint Chiefs chairman elevated
McMaster given greater authority over security matters

President Donald Trump reorganized his National Security Council on Wednesday, removing chief strategist Stephen Bannon from a key committee and restoring the roles of top intelligence and defense officials, according to a person familiar with the decision and a notice published in the Federal Register.

The realignment increases the influence of National Security Adviser H.R. McMaster, whose public stances were sometimes at odds with those of Bannon. In addition to gaining greater control over the NSC, McMaster will have the Homeland Security Council under his authority.

The change downgrades the role of Homeland Security Adviser Tom Bossert, who had been given authority to convene or chair the NSC’s principals committee under Trump’s original structure. He’ll serve those roles now as delegated by McMaster, according to a presidential memorandum (https://s3.amazonaws.com/public-inspection.federalregister.gov/2017-07064.pdf) dated Tuesday.

The national intelligence director, Dan Coats, and the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Marine Corps General Joseph Dunford, are again “regular attendees” of the principals committee, as in the Obama administration. Trump downgraded their roles and put Bannon on the committee in a Jan. 28 memorandum.

The secretary of energy, the Central Intelligence Agency director and the United Nations ambassador also were added to the principals committee under Wednesday’s revisions.

Bannon, the former executive chairman of Breitbart News, is one of Trump’s most trusted and controversial advisers. He has channeled the populist and nationalist sentiment that propelled Trump’s presidential campaign, and his placement on the NSC committee drew criticism from some members of Congress and Washington’s foreign policy establishment who said it risked politicizing the security advice provided to the president.

A White House official portrayed the change as a natural progression rather than a demotion for Bannon. The official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, contended that Bannon was placed on the committee in part to monitor Trump’s first national security adviser, Michael Flynn, and never attended a meeting. He’s no longer needed with McMaster in charge of the council, the official said.

It isn’t clear why Bannon would be needed on the committee under Flynn but not under McMaster. A second White House official said that Trump was never comfortable with Bannon on the panel, but that his removal didn’t indicate any erosion of his influence within the White House.

Bannon will retain his security clearance, the first official said.

Still, his departure from the NSC role was applauded by some Republicans as well as Democrats. Republican Representative Ileana Ros-Lehtinen of Florida called it “welcome news” in a tweet.

Flynn’s Firing

Trump fired Flynn on Feb. 13 for not disclosing to the president or to Vice President Mike Pence the extent of his conversations with Russia’s ambassador to the U.S., Sergey Kislyak, before Trump’s inauguration. He now is enmeshed in the multiple investigations of Russian meddling in the 2016 election and whether any Trump associates had improper contacts with Russian government agents.

Trump’s selection of McMaster reassured some administration critics. A decorated officer, McMaster has a reputation for speaking truth to authority. In his 1997 book “Dereliction of Duty,” he criticized military officers for failing to challenge former President Lyndon B. Johnson and then-Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara over their handling of the Vietnam War. He wrote that the U.S. lost that war in the political corridors of Washington, not the battlefield.

From Bloomberg News: (I haven't seen this as of yet, but I don't imagine that Bloomberg will paint Bannon with much color added, imo)...

Dec.19 -- Steve Bannon is an outsider. From a Wall Street banker, to a Hollywood producer, to the leader of a hard-right populist publication, to the White House, his road is an untraditional one. Bloomberg Profiles looks at Steve Bannon's ascent to power.

Since it was revealed yesterday that Steve Bannon was removed from Trump's National Security Council, the mainstream media rumor mill has run wild with speculation over whether the transition was voluntary or a devastating blindside to a man once considered Trump's right hand man. Here's the latest...

But while many in the media would love nothing more than to see Bannon resign from his post, and will undoubtedly progress any narrative required to help bring that to a fruition, the rumor mill would suggest that he's unlikely to go down without a fight after allegedly telling allies: "I love a gunfight."

Of course, only time will tell fact from fiction, but much like Mark Twain, we suspect that the reports of Bannon's early death are greatly exaggerated...

Yes, I listened to this...
But I found the Law School, Emily Bazelon, staff writer for the NYT... somewhat hard to take... It seems she wrote a NYT piece criticizing Gorsuch's playing a part in the possible attempt to abolish the Administrative State, i.e. use of Administrative Law which basically circumvents Congress in its ability for agencies to create / codify various regulations, which put restrictions in place... this is something that Trump wants to also undo... "for every one regulation created, two will have to be gotten rid of."

The New York Times article (below): The Government Gorsuch Wants to Undo (https://www.nytimes.com/2017/04/01/sunday-review/the-government-gorsuch-wants-to-undo.html?rref=collection%2Fbyline%2Femily-bazelon&action=click&contentCollection=undefined&region=stream&module=stream_unit&version=latest&contentPlacement=1&pgtype=collection&_r=0)

I have previously put together a video about the opposing view regarding this.
It contains a Jeff Rense interview with Jonathan Emord, a Constitutional Attorney, that seems to be thrilled with this particular notion. Here's a video I put together...

June 16, 1933, President Roosevelt signs the Industrial Control-Public Works bill, otherwise known as the
National Industrial Recovery Act. When signing the bill, he described it as the “most important and far-reaching
bit of legislation ever enacted by the American Congress.” Credit Bettmann Archive, via Getty Images

At recent Senate hearings to fill the Supreme Court (http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/organizations/s/supreme_court/index.html?inline=nyt-org)’s open seat, Judge Neil Gorsuch came across as a thoroughly bland and nonthreatening nominee. The idea was to give as little ammunition as possible to opponents when his nomination comes up this week for a vote, one that Senate Democrats may try to upend with a filibuster (http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/subjects/f/filibusters_and_debate_curbs/index.html?inline=nyt-classifier).

But the reality is that Judge Gorsuch embraces a judicial philosophy that would do nothing less than undermine the structure of modern government — including the rules that keep our water clean, regulate the financial markets and protect workers and consumers. In strongly opposing the administrative state, Judge Gorsuch is in the company of incendiary figures like the White House adviser Steve Bannon, who has called (https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/top-wh-strategist-vows-a-daily-fight-for-deconstruction-of-the-administrative-state/2017/02/23/03f6b8da-f9ea-11e6-bf01-d47f8cf9b643_story.html?utm_term=.32383fc84ebf)for its “deconstruction.” The Republican-dominated House, too, has passed a bill (https://www.congress.gov/bill/115th-congress/house-bill/5) designed to severely curtail the power of federal agencies.

Businesses have always complained that government regulations increase their costs, and no doubt some regulations are ill-conceived. But a small group of conservative intellectuals have gone much further to argue that the rules that safeguard our welfare and the orderly functioning of the market have been fashioned in a way that’s not constitutionally legitimate. This once-fringe cause of the right asserts, as Judge Gorsuch put it in a speech (http://scholarlycommons.law.case.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=4658&context=caselrev) last year, that the administrative state “poses a grave threat to our values of personal liberty.”

The 80 years of law that are at stake began with the New Deal. President Franklin D. Roosevelt (http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/people/r/franklin_delano_roosevelt/index.html?inline=nyt-per) believed that the Great Depression (http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/subjects/g/great_depression_1930s/index.html?inline=nyt-classifier) was caused in part by ruinous competition among companies. In 1933, Congress passed the National Industrial Recovery Act, which allowed the president to approve “fair competition” standards for different trades and industries. The next year, Roosevelt approved a code for the poultry industry, which, among other things, set a minimum wage and maximum hours for workers, and hygiene requirements for slaughterhouses. Such basic workplace protections and constraints on the free market are now taken for granted.

But in 1935, after a New York City slaughterhouse operator was convicted of violating the poultry code, the Supreme Court called into question the whole approach of the New Deal, by holding that the N.I.R.A. was an “unconstitutional delegation by Congress of a legislative power.” Only Congress can create rules like the poultry code, the justices said. Because Congress did not define “fair competition,” leaving the rule-making to the president, the N.I.R.A. violated the Constitution’s separation of powers.

The court’s ruling in Schechter Poultry Corp. v. the United States, along with another case decided the same year, are the only instances in which the Supreme Court has ever struck down a federal statute based on this rationale, known as the “nondelegation doctrine.” Schechter Poultry’s stand against executive-branch rule-making proved to be a legal dead end, and for good reason. As the court has recognized over and over, before and since 1935, Congress is a cumbersome body that moves slowly in the best of times, while the economy is an incredibly dynamic system. For the sake of business as well as labor, the updating of regulations can’t wait for Congress to give highly specific and detailed directions.

The New Deal filled the gap by giving policy-making authority to agencies, including the Securities and Exchange Commission, which protects investors, and the National Labor Relations Board, which oversees collective bargaining between unions and employers. Later came other agencies, including the Environmental Protection Agency (http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/organizations/e/environmental_protection_agency/index.html?inline=nyt-org), the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (https://www.osha.gov/) (which regulates workplace safety) and the Department of Homeland Security. Still other agencies regulate the broadcast spectrum, keep the national parks open, help farmers and assist Americans who are overseas. Administrative agencies coordinated the response to Sept. 11, kept the Ebola outbreak in check and were instrumental to ending the last financial crisis. They regulate the safety of food, drugs, airplanes and nuclear power plants. The administrative state isn’t optional in our complex society. It’s indispensable.

But if the regulatory power of this arm of government is necessary, it also poses a risk that federal agencies, with their large bureaucracies and potential ties to lobbyists, could abuse their power. Congress sought to address that concern in 1946, by passing the Administrative Procedure Act, which ensured a role (http://www.yalelawjournal.org/article/the-origins-of-judicial-deference-to-executive-interpretation) for the judiciary in overseeing rule-making by agencies.

The system worked well enough for decades, but questions arose when Ronald Reagan (http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/people/r/ronald_wilson_reagan/index.html?inline=nyt-per) came to power promising to deregulate. His E.P.A. sought to weaken a rule, issued by the Carter administration, which called for regulating “stationary sources” of air pollution — a broad wording that is open to interpretation. When President Reagan’s E.P.A. narrowed the definition of what counted as a “stationary source” to allow plants to emit more pollutants, an environmental group challenged the agency. The Supreme Court held in 1984 in Chevron v. Natural Resources Defense Council (http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/organizations/n/natural_resources_defense_council/index.html?inline=nyt-org) that the E.P.A. (and any agency) could determine the meaning of an ambiguous term in the law. The rule came to be known as Chevron deference: When Congress uses ambiguous language in a statute, courts must defer to an agency’s reasonable interpretation of what the words mean.

Chevron was not viewed as a left-leaning decision. The Supreme Court decided in favor of the Reagan administration, after all, voting 6 to 0 (three justices did not take part), and spanning the ideological spectrum. After the conservative icon Justice Antonin Scalia reached the Supreme Court, he declared himself a Chevron fan. “In the long run Chevron will endure,” Justice Scalia (http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/people/s/antonin_scalia/index.html?inline=nyt-per) wrote in a 1989 article, “because it more accurately reflects the reality of government, and thus more adequately serves its needs.”

That was then. But the Reagan administration’s effort to cut back on regulation ran out of steam. It turned out that the public often likes regulation — because it keeps the air and water clean, the workplace safe and the financial system in working order. Deregulation of the financial system led to the savings-and-loans crisis of the 1980s and the financial crisis a decade ago, costing taxpayers billions.

Businesses, however, have continued to complain that the federal government regulates too much. In the past 20 years, conservative legal scholars have bolstered the red-tape critique with a constitutional one. They argued that only Congress — not agencies — can create rules. This is Schechter Poultry all over again.

And Judge Gorsuch has forcefully joined in. Last year, in a concurring opinion (https://www.ca10.uscourts.gov/opinions/14/14-9585.pdf) in an immigration case called Gutierrez-Brizuela v. Lynch, he attacked Chevron deference, writing that the rule “certainly seems to have added prodigious new powers to an already titanic administrative state.” Remarkably, Judge Gorsuch argued that Chevron — one of the most frequently cited cases in the legal canon — is illegitimate in part because it is out of step with (you guessed it) Schechter Poultry. Never mind that the Supreme Court hasn’t since relied on its 1935 attempt to scuttle the New Deal. Nonetheless, Judge Gorsuch wrote that in light of Schechter Poultry, “you might ask how is it that Chevron — a rule that invests agencies with pretty unfettered power to regulate a lot more than chicken — can evade the chopping block.”

At his confirmation hearings, Judge Gorsuch hinted that he might vote to overturn Chevron without saying so directly, noting that the administrative state existed long before Chevron was decided in 1984. The implication is that little would change if courts stopped deferring to the E.P.A.’s or the Department of Labor’s reading of a statute. Judges would interpret the law. Who could object to that?

But here’s the thing: Judge Gorsuch is skeptical that Congress can use broadly written laws to delegate authority to agencies in the first place. That can mean only that at least portions of such statutes — the source of so many regulations that safeguard Americans’ welfare — must be sent back to Congress, to redo or not.

On the current Supreme Court, only Justice Clarence Thomas (http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/people/t/clarence_thomas/index.html?inline=nyt-per) seeks to strip power from the administrative state by undercutting (https://supreme.justia.com/cases/federal/us/576/14-46/concur4.html) Chevron and even reviving (https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/14pdf/13-1080_f29g.pdf) the obsolete and discredited nondelegation doctrine, as he explains in opinions approvingly cited by Judge Gorsuch. But President Trump may well appoint additional justices, and the other conservatives on the court have expressed (https://www.bloomberglaw.com/public/desktop/document/City_of_Arlington_Texas_v_FCC_No_111545_2013_BL_13 2478_US_May_20_/1?1490373866) some uneasiness with Chevron, though as yet they are not on board for overturning it. What would happen if agencies could not make rules for the financial industry and for consumer, environmental and workplace protection? Decades of experience in the United States and around the world teach that the administrative state is a necessary part of the modern market economy. With Judge Gorsuch on the Supreme Court, we will be one step closer to testing that premise.

Trump says 'I think' Susan Rice
committed a crime linked to asking
for 'unmasking' of his associates'
names when she worked for Obama (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4383776/Trump-says-think-Susan-Rice-committed-crime.html)

By David Martosko, Us Political Editor For Dailymail.com
Published: 13:39 EDT, 5 April 2017 | Updated: 15:08 EDT, 5 April 2017

Obama national security advisor Susan Rice is accused of repeatedly asking U.S. agencies to 'unmask' Trumpworld names from raw intelligence reports
A new report says Rice wasn't the only one in the Obama White House to do this
President Donald Trump said Wednesday that 'I think' she committed a crime
It's not unusual for a high-ranking national security official to ask for the names of people 'incidentally' surveilled, in order to understand a report's context
But the name of Rice's successor Mike Flynn was subsequently leaked to the press – which constitutes a felony

President Donald Trump (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/donald_trump/index.html) raised the possibility on Wednesday that former national security advisor Susan Rice committed a crime by asking intelligence agencies to reveal the names of Trump associates recorded incidentally during spy operations.

Asked by The New York Times (https://mobile.nytimes.com/2017/04/05/us/politics/trump-interview-susan-rice.html) in an Oval Office interview whether he thought Rice had done anything illegal, he said: 'Do I think? Yes, I think.'

Rice on Tuesday flatly denied leaking the name of anyone connected to Trump's campaign, transition or administration who was snared in a spy dragnet without being the target of any investigation.

'I think' former U.S. National Security Advisor Susan Rice committed a crime in office, President Donald Trump
said Wednesday; he's shown an hour later during a Rose Garden press conference with the King of Jordan

http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2017/04/03/16/028B4F7800000514-4376288-image-a-33_1491233325054.jpg
Rice asked intelligence agencies dozens of times to 'unmask' the names of Donald Trump
associates that were redacted from raw intelligence reports – and she wasn't the only one

'I leaked nothing to nobody and never have and never would,' she told MSNBC. Leaking names from classified reports is a felony, although it's legal and ordinary for a national security advisor to as for the 'unmasking' of names when it helps provide context to raw intelligence.

Trump on Wednesday hinted that he believes additional Obama administration officials might have been involved.

'I think it’s going to be the biggest story, the president said, while declining to name names.

'It's such an important story for our country and the world. It is one of the big stories of our time.'

He also wouldn't provide any new evidence to support his March 4 claims that the Obama administration had surveilled him and his team in 2016 for political purposes.

The Times reported that Trump wouldn't say if he has more recently seen any intelligence that might back up what he alleged on Twitter.

But he promised to explain himself 'at the right time.'

Retired Gen. Mike Flynn (left), who served briefly as National Security Advisor before
being forced out, wasn't the only Trump transition official whose name was 'unmasked'

http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2017/04/04/18/3EF0164D00000578-0-image-a-40_1491325408064.jpg
Rice forcefully denied on Tuesday that she or anyone in the White House ever went out of their way to 'unmask'
the identities of Trump or his associates, but The Wall Street Journal says at least two White House officials
– and two from Trumpworld – are in the picture

Rice also downplayed Tuesday on MSNBC the allegation 'that somehow the Obama administration officials utilized intelligence for political purposes.'

'That's absolutely false,' she insisted.

News emerged hours later, however, that she wasn't the only Obama administration official to request the 'unmasking' of members of President Donald Trump's transition team – and her successor Mike Flynn was just one of at least two who were left exposed.

President Trump retweeted a message from Internet newsman Matt Drudge on Tuesday,
pointing to an article that claimed Rice ordered intelligence agencies to spy on him

I was sure Hillary Clinton would have pushed for a full war on Syria and also a third world war.

I was hoping that Trump would not do any of this. I was hoping he was not part of the plot.

When looking at his cabinet appointees, I started to doubt.

Now, I have no more doubts, and this makes me truly sad for the world.

It is proven now that the gaz were in a wharehouse handled by the Daesh-opposition-aquaida-all the same, and that the Syrian government bombed it. What was the intent of those supported by the US with these wharehouses of deadly gaz? This will never be asked in the West.

Wrong or not, Assad fault or not, making war will never bring peace.

"Peace War in our time." -- Neville Chamberlain, with my edit for accuracy.

One more detail: 100 years ago to the day, on April 6, 1917, the US entered World War I: Army Commemorates 100th Anniversary of US Entering WWI (http://www.military.com/daily-news/2017/04/06/army-commemorates-100th-anniversary-us-entering-wwi.html):

The U.S. Army paid tribute Thursday to the 100th anniversary of the American military entering World War I, a move that would cost the lives of nearly 117,000 Doughboys.

A modest ceremony at the Pentagon marked the decision by Congress on April 6, 1917, to declare war on Imperial Germany for its campaign of unrestricted submarine warfare.
I've anticipated doom & gloom before, and been more or less wrong.

That doesn't seem to be dissuading me from anticipating it again.

One of the things I had liked about trump during the campaign is that he seemed for peace more than many of the candidates, minding our own business more and particularly peace with Russia. For him to do a 180 degree turn I feel he had to be strongly threatened. Of course I could be way off and perhaps he was offered something he really wants in exchange but my gut says he is being forced.

Aside from sad for him, sad for us and the world the larger question is - who the hell is running things? It's certainly not the President of the U.S.

This Week in the World Affairs Brief:

TRUMP VS. THE BUREAUCRATS

Several sources made it clear this week that the State Department continues to flood the nation with problem refugees with almost no vetting, despite Trump’s efforts to restrict it. The uphill battle for Trump is a reflection of how little of the massive government bureaucracy in Washington DC is replaced by an incoming president. While this helps maintain the continuity of government, when the vast majority of top level bureaucrats are activists on the Left, they are in a unique position to continue operating as if they are still under Barack Obama even though the presidency has changed hands. Many did not dare continue “normal” left-liberal operations in the beginning days of the Trump administration for fear of being fired, but it quickly became apparent that the Trump team was neither well organized nor ideological enough to carefully scrutinize what was going on in the vast bowels of the government. Thus, in the past month, they have all started going back to business as usual, and no one in the Trump administration is stopping them. Nothing is more exemplary of this problem than in the State Department. To receive a one-time free sample copy of the brief, email us at editor at worldaffairsbrief.com

The Deep State wins again

by Crimson Avenger, posting at Defiant Thinking (https://defiantthinking.wordpress.com/)

Last night, Donald Trump let us all know that he lost in his attempt to “drain the swamp” (if that was ever actually his true intent). Instead, the swamp drained him. The Deep State proved that they continue to call the shots.

Trump repeatedly said that we should focus on ISIS, not Syria; that Syria was none of our business. The Russians were taking care of the situation in Syria. And, for a country $20 trillion in debt, it makes sense to let someone else solve problems in the Middle East sometimes.

And this week’s chemical weapon attack was so clearly a false flag. As Ron Paul notes (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-04-06/ron-paul-zero-chance-assad-behind-chemical-weapons-attack-syria-likely-false-flag), why in the world would Assad gas his own people when he’s winning? He’s taken back lots of territory; he has the support of the Russians (who would certainly abandon or censure him if he did this); and the US has recently been acknowledged that he’ll likely stay in power, and that we’re ok with that. So why would you possibly do something guaranteed to turn the world against you?

And yet here we are, lobbing missiles into another sovereign nation, potentially stirring up an international incident with their superpower partner. Exactly what the Deep State needs: More conflict, more war.

Trump has been captured just as Obama had been captured.

Remember candidate Obama? He was against the Iraq War from the start. Here’s what he said in 2002 (http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=99591469):

Now let me be clear — I suffer no illusions about Saddam Hussein. He is a brutal man. A ruthless man. A man who butchers his own people to secure his own power. He has repeatedly defied UN resolutions, thwarted UN inspection teams, developed chemical and biological weapons, and coveted nuclear capacity. He’s a bad guy. The world, and the Iraqi people, would be better off without him.

But I also know that Saddam poses no imminent and direct threat to the United States or to his neighbors, that the Iraqi economy is in shambles, that the Iraqi military a fraction of its former strength, and that in concert with the international community he can be contained until, in the way of all petty dictators, he falls away into the dustbin of history. I know that even a successful war against Iraq will require a U.S. occupation of undetermined length, at undetermined cost, with undetermined consequences. I know that an invasion of Iraq without a clear rationale and without strong international support will only fan the flames of the Middle East, and encourage the worst, rather than best, impulses of the Arab world, and strengthen the recruitment arm of al-Qaida. I am not opposed to all wars. I’m opposed to dumb wars.
His opposition to the war was part of his platform in 2008 (http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=88988093). And yet, in 2017, NPR notes (http://www.npr.org/sections/parallels/2017/01/18/510447582/after-8-years-of-unbroken-war-obama-hands-over-conflicts-to-trump)that Obama had the distinction of being the first two-term president in history to be at war every single day of his presidency. Not only did we not end the Iraq War, we sustained the Afghanistan War, turned Libya into a failed state, seeded an uprising in the Ukraine and supported Saudi Arabia as it went to war in Yemen.

The lesson is clear:

The Deep State holds the reigns, and no matter what a candidate says, they’ll get on board the Deep State train in short order once assuming the office.The Burning Platform (https://www.theburningplatform.com/2017/04/07/the-deep-state-wins-again/#more-147497)

I went to bed at 9:30 last night and woke up to this bullsh¡t. I was disappointed in Trump adding all those Goldman Sachs scumbags as his advisors. I was disappointed he supported Obamacare lite rather than repealing and replacing it. His tax plans look to be dead on arrival.

Now, the guy who ran as a non-interventionist, like his two predecessors, has been co-opted by the neo-cons and the military industrial complex. Syria has never posed a threat to the security of the United States. They posed a threat to the Saudi pipeline to Europe. Assad didn’t gas those people. This was a false flag by the “moderate” rebels / Deep State / Military-Industrial / Never-Trump Corporate MSM .

It becomes clearer by the day how powerful the Deep State has become. Trump is doing what he has been told to do. Bush, Obama and Trump must be brought into a room and told to obey their orders or they will be JFK’d. This attack on a sovereign nation without authorization from Congress is an act of war. Russia and Iran are Syria’s allies. The Chinese will support Russia.

Trump may have just let the genie out of the bottle and this Fourth Turning (https://www.amazon.com/Fourth-Turning-American-Prophecy-Rendezvous/dp/0767900464) is about to become bloody.

Donald Trump will get no support from this website (The Burning Platform (https://www.theburningplatform.com)) henceforth. I judge people based upon their actions, not their words. His actions tell me everything I need to know about his character and integrity.

The constituents in fly-over middle america must be in shock and heartbroken. People like us on this forum knew something like this could happen. We've never stopped speculating from Day 1 who is Donald Trump? And we still can't but we knew this could happen. But the hope and enthusiasm of middle america must be on the way towards flatlining as they watch foxnews and try to find a way to make sense or justify what is going on, for them I start feeling anger.

What the heck is so important about Syria anyway if I may ask a dumb belated question. All I can figure is it is really about iran? That is next? which I don't suppose could mean it's all about israel? can't stop speculating...

Syria is in the way of Asyria which is a Zionist fictional and eventually defeatable state that will then bring about Greater Israel that spans all across the region.

This is a quite tedious interview to listen to, but in it, Kameran Faily illustrated the game plan in the region better than any other I've ever heard:

So the deep state IS very organized AND still has the power to keep the neocon agenda going.
Almost all of Reagan's team was imposed on him and he was surrounded by wolves, right?
They did the same now with Trump within key departments.

Just like when Trump said he fully supports Israel and even the latest illegal housing developments, he had no choice to say it.
Trump is intelligent enough to play the game, his way as much as he can, but he still has to obay to some specific directives .
Thats how he stays alive.

Am I wrong ? , or congress will use the error of sending bombs in the actual context without going to congress first, and just hammer the guy?..

or,

If deep state gets what it wants, the opposition will have no choice but to play along and just holler but not bite at Trump?

Certainly, the Deep State has gotten what it wanted.
Nobody knows it all. And, Trump is human just like anybody else.
Yes, it seems Trump will come to get a better & more clear picture of what Israel is about.

From my personal inquiry into the matter... a few things may be a bit pertinent...

The Deep State has found a way to get at Donald Trump. And that is through Trump's son-in-law, Jared Kushner. Jared Kushner is known to have been one of Trump's top advisors on whether to proceed with the missile strike. It also appears that there was a difference of opinion between another Trump advisor - Steve Bannon. Steve Bannon & Jared Kushner had taken opposing sides on this particular issue. Trump sided with his son-in-law. As a consequence, Bannon had considered stepping down because of it. This may what lay behind the the rumor that Steve Bannon was being 'demoted' from the White House security council. Whatever Pence had come out & said publicly about what was going on with Bannon was not exactly true. Pence simply was administering a bandaid to cover over the real situation.

This may come out of the wash later on down the line... but most probably will not. Take this with at least a very tiny grain of salt, as being a distinct possibility... just saying.

In Battle for Trump’s Heart and Mind,
It’s Bannon vs. Kushner (https://www.nytimes.com/2017/04/06/us/politics/stephen-bannon-white-house.html)

By MAGGIE HABERMAN, JEREMY W. PETERS and PETER BAKER
APRIL 6, 2017

https://static01.nyt.com/images/2017/04/07/us/07bannon1/07bannon1-master768.jpg

WASHINGTON — Thick with tension, the conversation this week between Stephen K. Bannon, the chief White House strategist, and Jared Kushner, the president’s son-in-law and senior adviser, had deteriorated to the point of breakdown.

Finally, Mr. Bannon identified why they could not compromise, according to someone with knowledge of the conversation. “Here’s the reason there’s no middle ground,” Mr. Bannon growled. “You’re a Democrat.”

The schism within Mr. Trump’s perpetually fractious White House has grown in recent weeks, fueled by personality, ideology and ambition. At its core are Mr. Bannon, the edgy, nationalist bomb-thrower suddenly in the seat of power, and Mr. Kushner, the polished, boyish-looking scion of New Jersey and New York real estate. Even as Mr. Kushner’s portfolio of responsibilities has been expanding, Mr. Bannon’s in recent days has shrunk with the loss of a national security post.

The escalating feud, though, goes beyond mere West Wing melodrama, the sort of who’s-up-and-who’s-down scorekeeping that typically consumes Washington. Instead, it reflects a larger struggle to guide the direction of the Trump presidency, played out in disagreements over the policies Mr. Trump should pursue, the people he should hire and the image he should put forward to the American people.

On one side are Mr. Bannon’s guerrilla warriors, eager to close the nation’s borders, dismantle decades of regulations, empower police departments and take on the establishment of both parties in Washington. On the other are Mr. Kushner’s “Democrats,” an appellation used to describe even Republicans who want to soften Mr. Trump’s rough edges and broaden his narrow popular appeal after months of historically low poll numbers.

In the middle is Mr. Trump himself, seemingly torn between the two factions, tilting one way or the other depending on the day, or even the hour, while he seeks to recapture momentum after a series of defeats in Congress and the courts. As he did throughout his career in business and entertainment, Mr. Trump plays advisers off one another, encouraging a sort of free-for-all competition for influence and ideas within his circle, so long as everyone demonstrates loyalty to him.

At different moments, Mr. Trump has given conflicting impressions of his preferences. He has privately scorned the coverage of Mr. Kushner’s recent high-profile trip to Iraq, according to two people who spoke with him, and questioned the need for his son-in-law’s newly created office to overhaul the government. At other points, he has been dismissive of Mr. Bannon, curtly telling him he is not needed at this meeting or that.

“This president’s method of managing is by him personally curating points of views from a diverse group of people in whom he has some trust and credibility,” said Thomas Barrack Jr., a longtime friend of Mr. Trump who led his inaugural festivities. “And he very rarely accepts one course of action or one suggestion without laundering it amongst all of them. And what happens in that process is confusion amongst those from whom he’s seeking advice. What works for him is that, out of that milieu, his instincts take him to the right answer.”

But the main players have grown so wary of leaving Mr. Trump’s side that it has become hard to organize meetings of senior officials without him, to thrash through policies or hiring choices, slowing up an already fitful process. Meanwhile, the conflicting sides have been waging proxy battles through friendly news media outlets.

While alliances have been fluid in this White House, Mr. Kushner is joined by more centrist-minded advisers including not only his wife, Ivanka Trump, who now has her own West Wing office, but also Gary Cohn, the president’s national economics adviser, and Dina Powell, a deputy national security adviser, both veterans of Goldman Sachs.

Mr. Bannon’s closest ally is Stephen Miller, the president’s senior adviser for policy and the author of orders to temporarily ban visitors from certain predominantly Muslim countries. And although they were once at odds and still come from vastly different vantage points, Mr. Bannon has also maintained an alliance of convenience lately with Reince Priebus, the chief of staff closely associated with the Republican Party establishment.

In recent weeks, as Mr. Bannon has felt increasingly frustrated, Mr. Priebus has several times bolstered the chief strategist in discussions with the president, according to people with direct knowledge of the talks. In turn, Mr. Bannon has gone out of his way to praise his onetime rival’s performance.

Mr. Kushner and the others are said to be especially concerned about the geyser of bad headlines that have marked the president’s first two and a half months in office. They have resisted many of the more polarizing policy initiatives favored by Mr. Bannon’s side, including the travel ban and rollbacks of environmental regulation and of protections for transgender students, arguing that they undercut Mr. Trump’s election night pledge to be a president for all Americans.

On foreign policy, Mr. Kushner is more inclined toward intervention in the Middle East while Mr. Bannon would prefer that the United States remain as uncommitted as possible. Even as the president signaled this week that he might respond militarily to the chemical attack on civilians in Syria, Mr. Bannon has argued that American interests are better served by not getting drawn any further into the quagmire of a civil war.

From his point of view, Mr. Bannon describes the struggle in militaristic terms, vowing to associates that he “won’t give an inch.” He tells Mr. Trump that there is no political benefit to drifting even slightly toward the center on core issues like the Mexican border wall, immigration and the environment, while he argues against a large infrastructure spending package without a clear way to pay for it.

Mr. Bannon argues that it would be a fool’s errand to try to placate Democrats on Capitol Hill. That is a view shared by Mr. Priebus, a former chairman of the Republican National Committee. If Mr. Trump made a deal on health care with Democrats, Mr. Priebus told the president, it would jeopardize his chances of winning the Republican nomination in 2020, according to a person present for the conversation.

The split has widened in a White House filled with aides facing constant questions from reporters about their place. Kellyanne Conway, the president’s counselor and once the most prominent face of the White House, has been less visible after several public misstatements. Sean Spicer, the press secretary known for combative encounters with reporters, is struggling to match his aggressive boss’s expectations. And Mr. Trump’s penchant for polling outsiders about his staff fosters tension.
Mr. Priebus remains in a hot spot. Mr. Trump is fond of asking visitors, “How do you think Reince is doing?” and he expressed anger at the collapse of the health care overhaul (http://topics.nytimes.com/top/news/health/diseasesconditionsandhealthtopics/health_insurance_and_managed_care/health_care_reform/index.html?inline=nyt-classifier), telling a longtime associate last week that he believed that Mr. Priebus was partly to blame.

One of Mr. Priebus’s top deputies, Katie Walsh, left the White House unexpectedly last week, and he has been alarmed by a spate of stories questioning his relationships with the president and with Vice President Mike Pence. Mr. Priebus personally reached out to two administration officials urging them to push back with journalists reporting on tension with Mr. Pence.

Anxious for a victory, Mr. Priebus hastily convened a meeting with Mr. Pence, House Speaker Paul Ryan and others in his corner office on Wednesday night and pressed for a quick vote on the health care repeal package, or some element of it, before the House left for its spring recess on Thursday. Mr. Ryan, who is close to Mr. Priebus, rejected the idea, explaining that the Republican leadership needed more time to secure votes to pass anything.

Similarly, Mr. Bannon has told associates that he has been frustrated by recent setbacks and has resolved to dig in hard. He has been prodded by his longtime financial patron, Rebekah Mercer, the conservative philanthropist and political donor, according to White House insiders. But she was in little position to help him, since Mr. Trump is said to have grown weary of the Mercers’ seeking to enforce control over outside groups supporting him.

The wrestling match has spilled over into public view as each camp seeks reinforcements among news media and conservative figures. Roger J. Stone Jr., an on-and-off adviser to Mr. Trump for 30 years, accused Mr. Kushner of planting negative views of Mr. Bannon on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” a show the president is known to watch.

“Many of the anti-Steve Bannon stories that you see, the themes that you see on ‘Morning Joe,’ are being dictated by Kushner, while Mr. Kushner’s plate is very full with Middle Eastern peace and the China visit and so on,” Mr. Stone said this week on the radio show hosted by Alex Jones, an avid fan of Mr. Trump’s who loathes establishment figures and traffics in conspiracy theories.

Mr. Bannon’s supporters are publicly warning about the subversion of Mr. Trump’s real agenda by the so-called Democrats.

“This isn’t about palace intrigue,” Laura Ingraham, the conservative radio host and author who was one of Mr. Trump’s earliest backers, said in an interview. “This is about a full-scale assault against the Trump agenda from within. If the president allows this to continue and drifts away from his key pledges, he risks losing his core constituency and any hope of a second term.”

So now we are being dragged into a People's magazine type of soap opera, Bannon vs Kushner, uh Time-Out!! the myths & rumors are being manufactured by the hour...

You mean trump is going to ignore what the world, his constituents, his witch hunters, etc. think of him and do the trite, age-old family nepotism thing?! he goes out of his way to make a military style staff and he throws his rich jew son-in-law into the middle of them?! I guess also it was planned years ago, some tribal members saw trump as valuable to them and sent some 'eligibles' to go court his daughters and get him through family? maybe his entire family are hostages to the top warmongers....well, whatever the NYT says is probably what all the cable anti-trumps will go with...

If you look at the Alex Jones video segment of the David Knight Interview of Steve Pieczenik @ 1:43:00, Steve explains it pretty well. Yes, Jared Kushner, in essence, is a globalist, but plays a minor role. Steve Pieczenik explains, yes, Kushner needs to be eliminated from the White House & should pay more attention to his bankrupt business.

I have to thank the internet gods for not having Alex Jones do this particular interview, as he would have interfered so much with Steve Pieczenik being able to properly explain what had actually taken place with this Syrian Missile Strike... I will post it below... In the meantime take a look at that segment of the interview above...

Donald Trump's air strikes on Syria
are largely symbolic - but symbolic

Analysis: The low death toll suggests Syria was warned - via Russia - the strikes were coming. But America's first direct military action against Assad raises more questions than it provides solutions
https://static.independent.co.uk/s3fs-public/styles/article_small/public/thumbnails/image/2017/04/07/10/donald-trump-syria.jpg

The 59 Tomahawk Cruise missiles fired from the USS Porter and USS Ross into the Sharyat airfield in western Homs could be seen as defining Donald Trump’s campaign declaration that he would do the “unexpected” in foreign policy, and that America’s enemies can expect swift retribution for acts of aggression.

But what has unfolded also illustrates the contradictions and confusion which have characterised the new administration. On this occasion it starts with the fundamental question of who exactly is the enemy; who is running foreign policy in Washington, and just how effective and even just how unexpected the strikes were by the time they took place in the early hours of the morning.

Just a few days ago, US officials were confiding that regime change in Damascus was not something that Washington was contemplating, and Isis remained the target. Last night Rex Tillerson, the Secretary of State, said that Bashar al-Assad should no longer stay in power. Mr Tillerson went on to insist that “there were no discussions or prior contacts, nor had there been any since the attack with Moscow”, the Syrian leader’s chief supporter. But this was directly contradicted by the Pentagon which stressed that “multiple conversations” had taken place with the Russians on Thursday.

“There are Russians at the base and we took extraordinary precautions to not target areas where the Russians are,” said Captain Jeff Davis.All the indications are that it was indeed the case that the Kremlin had been kept informed – through the “deconfliction line” from the US military facility at the al-Udeid air base in Qatar set up to avert accidental clashes between the American and Russian militaries in Syria – about the assault. Mr Tillerson, supposedly Mr Trump’s foreign policy chief, appears to have been kept uninformed about this.

There are also strong indications that the Russians passed on information about the impending strikes to the Syrian regime: senior officers had left the base before they took place and some even had time to move their families out of the area. The reported number of casualties, six soldiers dead, is remarkably light for such a barrage.

This raises the claim that the attack was largely symbolic. The hopes expressed by the Syrian opposition that the strikes are the first of many are unlikely to be fulfilled. The symbolism may not just be confined to Syria. Xi Jinping is being hosted by Mr Trump at the Mar-a-Lago resort. Beijing is North Korea’s only ally and the Chinese President will be asked forcefully, the US administration has said, to halt Pyongyang’s sabre rattling with missile launches. The Syrian air strikes will, Washington is likely to hope, act as a deterrent.

But there are laws of unintended consequences to symbolic acts. Moscow has announced that it is suspending the deconfliction line in protest at the air strikes. This is likely to be temporary, but in the meantime there remains the possibility of an inadvertent clash between American and Russia. The Russians have installed advanced surface-to-air defences in Syria with both sides busy in the skies above.

VIDEO (http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/middle-east/russia-donald-trump-air-strikes-syria-vladimir-putin-illegal-international-law-breach-a7671526.html)

What has happened will also raise questions about the next phase of diplomacy between the US and Russia. Mr Tillerson is due to be in Moscow next Thursday – preceded by Boris Johnson earlier in the week --- and the visit was being viewed as setting the framework for future relations. But the seeming lack of the Secretary of State’s knowledge about liaison with the Kremlin over the Syrian strikes has reinforced doubts about just how much of a stewardship he is allowed over America’s foreign policy.

They will drop that like a hot rock and it is no doubt why Trump switched course so quickly...or one of the many reasons. It's all self interest on his part.

But rethink the convenience for CIA and the Mossad. If they are back to square one with the Obama Clinton foreign policy, Israel and the Mossad aren't winners. Iran is. China...possibly. Think about the timing of the attack--while Trump was sitting down to dinner with Xi (I think that's his name) in China.

Strange days indeed, Kiwi. Both fortunately and unfortunately, the CIA has been able to reassert dominance.

The Syrian Air Base Attack (https://www.theburningplatform.com/2017/04/07/the-syrian-air-base-attack/#more-147494)

Guest Post by Scott Adams (http://blog.dilbert.com/post/159300836386/the-syrian-air-base-attack)
As I blogged yesterday (http://blog.dilbert.com/post/159264981001/the-syrian-gas-attack-persuasion), the claim that Assad ordered a chemical attack on his own people in the past week doesn’t pass my sniff test. For Assad to order a gas attack now – while his side is finally winning – he would have to be willing to risk his life and his regime for no real military advantage. I’m not buying that.

But let’s say the world believes Assad or a rogue general under his command gassed his own people. What’s an American President to do? If Trump does nothing, he appears weak, and it invites mischief from other countries. But if he launches 59 Tomahawk missiles at a Syrian military air base base within a few days, which he did, the U.S. gets several benefits at low cost:

1. President Trump just solved for the allegation that he is Putin’s puppet. He doesn’t look like Putin’s puppet today. And that was Trump’s biggest problem, which made it America’s problem too. No one wants a president who is under a cloud of suspicion about Russian influence.

2. President Trump solved (partly) for the allegation that he is incompetent. You can hate this military action, but even Trump’s critics will call it measured and rational. Like it or not, President Trump’s credibility is likely to rise because of this, if not his popularity. Successful military action does that for presidents.

3. President Trump just set the table for his conversations with China about North Korea. Does China doubt Trump will take care of the problem in China’s own backyard if they don’t take care of it themselves? That negotiation just got easier.

4. Iran might be feeling a bit more flexible when it’s time to talk about their nuclear program.

5. Trump’s plan of a Syrian Safe Zone requires dominating the Syrian Air Force for security. That just got easier.

6. After ISIS is sufficiently beaten-back, the Syrian government will need to negotiate with the remaining entities in Syria to form a lasting peace of some sort that keeps would-be refugees in place. Syria’s government just got more flexible. It probably wants to keep the rest of its military.

7. Israel is safer whenever an adversary’s air power is degraded.

On the risk side of the equation, we have the possibility of getting into war with Russia. I’d put those odds at roughly zero in this case because obviously the U.S. warned Russia about the attack. That means we knew their reaction before we attacked. And it was a measured response of the type Putin probably respects. I expect Russia to complain a lot but continue to partner with the U.S. against ISIS.

If it turns out that the sarin gas attack that sparked this military action didn’t come from Assad, it doesn’t much matter. President Trump will bank all of the benefits above even if the attack turns out to be a hoax. We know Assad had some chemical weapons at one point, and probably used them. No one will be crying for Assad if the attack was unnecessary. And realistically, the public will never be 100% sure who was behind the attack.

I doubt this is the first step in a larger plan for war to depose Assad. But if Assad thinks it might be, we have a stronger position over there.

I’m not pro-war, so this military action alarms me the same way it alarms most people. But objectively speaking, the risk-reward ratio for this attack on Syria’s air field was exceptionally good. You rarely see so many benefits arise from one limited military action.

I thought President Trump would hold off on military action in the service of regime change. That still seems to be the case. But once our intelligence services traced the plane that allegedly dropped the gas back to a specific air base, it opened the option that Trump took. I didn’t realize that our military knows what every aircraft in Syria is doing at all times. That’s impressive, bordering on hard-to-believe.

A fine example of Trump genius, imo... in his playing on a 4D chessboard...

Don't forget that Trump did some acting in his day... Wasn't it you, Atlas, that posted some of the old movie clips that he starred in... Co-starred in a movie with Anthony Quinn & Bo Derek... "Ghosts Can't Do It" (https://youtu.be/co0aDXPTK5o)clip.

Perhaps... just perhaps, this going after Bashar Assad is just an act... while playing 4D chess...

1. He has Rex Tillerson do a reversal - from Assad can stay in power to he must go!
2. He gets rid of 60 antique missiles that can't hit the side of a barn door...
3. He gets the Russiophobic Democratic sociopaths off his back
4. He gets CNN & the other MSM media Fake News outlets to finally say he is acting Presidential.
5. The neocons... Insane John McCain, Creepy Lindsay Graham & 'Little' Marco Rubio are now dancing in the Streets like the 911 dancing Israelis...
6. And, just at the time that he's sitting down to have dinner with the Chinese dictator.
7. Followed-up with suggesting that China ought to reign in their North Korean ally wildman..

Petraeus and McMaster have Taken Over the NSC,
Want Massive Ground War with Syria (https://medium.com/@Cernovich/petraeus-and-mcmaster-have-taken-over-the-nsc-want-massive-ground-war-with-syria-e67b71a9076a)
By Mike Cernovich
Apr 9, 2017
Disgraced former CIA director and convicted criminal David Petraeus has been remaking the NSC, and thus America’s national security policy, in his image through puppet H.R. McMaster. In what is being called “Petraeus’ second war,” McMaster has been advising Trump to raise an army to impose a regime change in Syria. Some reports estimate McMaster wants to send 150,000 ground troops to the Middle East (https://medium.com/@Cernovich/h-r-mcmaster-manipulating-intelligence-reports-to-trump-wants-150-000-ground-soldiers-in-syria-83346c433e99).

Petraus, using his considerable contacts in the media as well as substantial Saudi money, has been manipulating personnel decisions within the NSC for months.

http://media.breitbart.com/media/2015/08/David-Petraeus-L-and-Hillary-Clinton-Paul-J.-Richards-AFPGetty-Images-640x480.jpg

NSC has already been stacked with Petraus loyalists.

Surge: My Journey with General David Petraeus and the Remaking of the Iraq War (https://www.amazon.com/Surge-Journey-Petraeus-Remaking-Military/dp/0300172354) describes Petraus’ inner circle as including H.R. McMaster, now head of the NSC, Derek Harvey (the NSC’s top adviser on the Middle East (http://foreignpolicy.com/2017/03/06/mcmaster-faces-limits-in-overhauling-flynns-nsc/)), Joel Rayburn (Harvey’s deputy) (http://www.haaretz.com/us-news/.premium-1.767890) and will soon include Major General Ricky Waddell if McMaster is able to squeeze out K.T. McFarland.

http://curezone.com/upload/_T_Forums/Turiya_Files_/AVALON/TRUMP/FLYNN_DEEPSTA/Mike_Cernovich_PETRAUES_JOINT_STRATEGIC_ASSESSMENT _TEAM.png

McMaster is forcing out K.T. McFarland, a Trump ally who opposes a massive ground war in Syria.

Jennifer Jacobs of Bloomberg reported earlier today (https://www.bloomberg.com/politics/articles/2017-04-09/mcfarland-to-exit-white-house-as-mcmaster-consolidates-power):

McFarland to Exit White House as McMaster Consolidates Power
K. T. McFarland has been asked to step down as deputy National Security Advisor to President Donald Trump after less than three months and is expected to be nominated as ambassador to Singapore, according to a person familiar with White House personnel moves.Major General Ricky Waddell, a Petraeus loyalist, is McMaster’s choice to replace K. T. McFarland.

McMaster pushed out Steve Bannon earlier last week (https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/bannon-removed-from-security-council-as-mcmaster-asserts-control/2017/04/05/ffa8b5d2-1a3a-11e7-bcc2-7d1a0973e7b2_story.html?utm_term=.f0bdaa6f82d8).

President Trump on Wednesday removed controversial White House chief strategist Stephen K. Bannon from the National Security Council, part of a sweeping staff reshuffling that elevated military, intelligence and Cabinet officials to greater roles on the council and left Bannon less directly involved in shaping the administration’s day-to-day national security policy.
The restructuring reflects the growing influence of national security adviser H.R. McMaster, an Army three-star general who took over the post after retired general Michael Flynn was ousted in February and who is increasingly asserting himself over the flow of national security information in the White House.Petraeus’s manuvering began months ago. Through his connections with deep state, he has been able to have the background checks of Trump supporters sabotaged.

Trump loyalist Robin Townley had his security clearance application denied (http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/top-flynn-aide-denied-security-clearance-cia-nsc/story?id=45427487), despite the fact that Townley, a war hero, already had a top secret security clearance.

A senior administration official tells ABC News that Robin Townley, National Security (http://abcnews.go.com/topics/news/us/national-security.htm) Adviser Mike Flynn’s pick for the NSC’s senior director for Africa, had his request for special security clearance denied by the CIA.
The move will prevent Townley from being able to serve in the NSC post. Townley currently maintains an active top secret security clearance, but it was his request was for “Sensitive Compartmented Information” clearance that was rejected, the source says. The post is one of nearly two dozen senior director positions on the NSC tailored to a specific focus or geographical area; many of those positions currently remain vacant with no announced appointees.Susan Rice, who unmasked Americans in an unprecedent spying scandal, advised H.R. McMaster to purge the NSC of Trump loyalists (http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2017/feb/20/susan-rice-urges-hr-mcmaster-get-rid-stephen-banno/).

http://curezone.com/upload/_T_Forums/Turiya_Files_/AVALON/TRUMP/FLYNN_DEEPSTA/SUSAN_RICE_to_LT_GEN_MCMASTER.png (https://twitter.com/AmbassadorRice/status/833833824236736512)

McMaster tried hiring Benghazi liar Linda Weissgold to work for him at the NSC.
How could a proven fraud like Linda Weissgold obtain a security clearance let alone be hired for the NSC?

McMaster Interviewed CIA Operative to Replace Trump NSC Official (http://www.weeklystandard.com/mcmaster-interviewed-cia-operative-to-replace-trump-nsc-official/article/2007219)
During the Obama administration Weissgold served as director of the CIA’s Office of Terrorism Analysis. She was among those who briefed Congress following the Benghazi terrorist attack in 2012, a team of intelligence and military experts who reportedly earned the nickname “the dream team” (http://www.cbsnews.com/news/officials-on-benghazi-we-made-mistakes-but-without-malice/2/) within the administration.
In her position at OTA, she was also involved directly in drafting the now infamous Benghazi talking points (http://www.weeklystandard.com/the-benghazi-talking-points/article/720543), which government officials revised heavily to include factually incorrect assessments that stated the attackers were prompted by protests. According to the House Select Committee on Benghazi’s report (https://benghazi.house.gov/sites/republicans.benghazi.house.gov/files/documents/Part%20II_Redacted.pdf), Weissgold testified she had changed one such talking point to say that extremists in Benghazi with ties to al Qaeda had been involved in “protests” in the Libyan city, despite the fact that no such protests had occurred there on the day of the attack.Watch NSC personnel moves closely. Trump supporters are out, pro-war Petraeus puppets are in.

Susan Rice, who unmasked Americans in a spying scandal, is advising H.R. McMaster. McMaster sought to hire a proven Benghazi liar on his team. Meanwhile a war hero (Robin Townley) with a top secret clearance wasn’t able to have his security clearance approved for a position at the NSC.
Trump ally K.T. McFarland is being pushed out, to be replaced with Petraeus loyalist Ricky Waddell.
Again, pick up a copy of Surge. Nearly every member of Petraeus’s inner circle is at the NSC or is on their way there.

This is a silent deep state coup led by Petraeus, and Trump must be on guard against McMaster’s false intelligence reports!

Thanks, Sam.

Looks like the so-called "military intelligence" laid a big egg on this one... I will repeat what was shown on that X22 Report (@8:00) that I posted on the other page (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?95893-Trump-The-Great-American-Reset&p=1145479&viewfull=1#post1145479)...

By Dave Boyer - The Washington Times -
Monday, February 20, 2017
Former Obama national security adviser Susan E. Rice on Monday urged her new counterpart in the Trump White House, Lt. Gen. H.R. McMaster (http://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/hr-mcmaster/), to get rid of a national security wing led by presidential strategist Stephen Bannon.

“Hope you will be able to choose your team, have direct reporting and daily access to POTUS, and can eliminate Strategic Initiatives Group,” Ms. Rice wrote in a congratulatory note to Lt. Gen. McMaster (http://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/hr-mcmaster/) on Twitter.

The Strategic Initiatives Group is a layer of the White House National Security Council that’s led by Mr. Bannon.
President Trump on Monday afternoon announced his selection of Lt. Gen. McMaster (http://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/hr-mcmaster/) to fill the post, one week after the president fired Michael Flynn for misleading Vice President Mike Pence and others about his conversations with the Russian ambassador to the U.S.

Ok, I'm going to ask a nutty question even if it means somone gives me a heads-up that my imagination has taken over.

Does anyone think Trump could now be a hostage?

I'm still running various scenarios in my head as to what's going on with Trump. Many have already made up their minds. But the scenario that is scariest to me is that Donald Trump believed he was going to be President of the U.S. and he has now found out that many who surround him take orders from something or someone else, some other authoritative body. He is now being told what he can and cannot tell us. And, he doesn't know what to do about it. If he tried to let on to the citizenry that the office of the American President is a bogus office and there really is no American Presidency other than a PR job, if he tried to go on camera and tell us what the bottom line is - I could see that grounds for him being given a heart attack or something.

It could be. The same might be said for other presidents, too. The presidency is largely a PR job now. The military industrial complex has been in control since Kennedy. Eisenhower warned the citizenry. What is atrocious is -- surely to God, Bannon was aware of this and would have told Trump his powers would be limited once he achieved power.

What you have here is another puppet and a preening one who doesn't care one bit what happens in Syria -- he WON the presidency. That appears to be all he cares about.

Calling A Bluff? (https://www.theburningplatform.com/2017/04/08/calling-a-bluff/#more-147654)

Guest post by Robert Gore at Straight Line Logic (https://straightlinelogic.com/2017/04/08/calling-a-bluff-by-robert-gore/)

http://www.watanhor.com/upload/news/youtube_78GrU-hIUvQ.jpg

Things Are Seldom What They Seem

In “Plot Holes (http://straightlinelogic.com/2017/02/26/plot-holes-by-robert-gore/),” SLL took a contrary tack to the consensus after Michael Flynn was fired: “The upshot of many commentators is that Trump has underestimated the Deep State, he’s floundering, and so on.” SLL noted that in committing an obvious illegality—leaking transcripts of Flynn’s conversation to the press—the Deep State was showing weakness, not strength, and handing President Trump an opportunity to investigate it and score a decisive victory.

Sure enough, the “Russiagate” story has shifted from alleged Russian collusion with Trump and his team to the Obama team’s alleged illegal misuse of intelligence information against Trump. Susan Rice’s unmasking has been unmasked, raising the possibility that Obama ordered her to do so, and Adam Schiff, the ranking Democrat on the House Intelligence committee who had vociferously pursued the Russian collusion investigation, has gone silent. While Trump cannot yet declare match point, he’s up several games in the final set and he’s got his opponents on their back feet.

The Wall Street Journal editorial page and many neocons are delighted by President Trump’s “muscular” response to Syria’s alleged use of chemical weapons. A number of commentators. formerly supportive or at least willing to give Trump the benefit of the doubt, have expressed extreme dismay or repudiated Trump. He stands accused of betraying one of his campaign’s main promises. However, just as with the Michael Flynn affair, the stories emerging so far have their plot holes.

http://www.slate.com/content/dam/slate/articles/news_and_politics/politics/2016/07/160701_POL_Putin-Trump_TX.jpg.CROP.promovar-mediumlarge.jpg

Several days after the Assad regime was blessed by Secretary of State Tillerson and Ambassador to the United Nations Haley, Assad purportedly turned around and ordered the use of chemical weapons, which he had supposedly gotten rid of in 2013. Why would he in one supremely stupid stroke destroy the legitimacy so recently conferred? Why would his ally Russia allow him to do so? The WSJ and New York Times said he was thumbing his nose at the US. This is absurd on its face. A beleaguered head of state who is finally seeing some military and diplomatic daylight doesn’t make provocative gestures guaranteed to piss off the world’s most militarily powerful nation.

Those accusing Trump of betrayal argue that the implausibility of Syria using chemical weapons screams false flag, perpetrated by either Syrian rebels, or more darkly, by the US military and intelligence agencies and their contractors (the complex). Russia and Syria say that Syria bombed a rebel warehouse containing chemical weapons. Throw in the pictures showing relief workers handling chemical victims, dead and alive, with their bare hands, and it all smells pretty fishy. Certainly fishy enough for Trump to investigate before he pulled the trigger.

Unless Trump didn’t care if it was a false flag or not. Take the worse case: assume it was a false flag, that Trump knew it was, and that the complex had a hand in it. Isn’t it far more plausible that after Tillerson and Haley signaled abandonment of its long-cherished goal of deposing Assad, the complex would devise an incident designed to put Trump on the spot in Syria, rather than that Assad surrendered hard-won diplomatic and military gains by using chemical weapons? When politicians start talking about “the children,” watch out, some sort of mischief is underway. Was Trump really moved by pictures of dead children? Probably not. American intervention has been leaving dead children in its wake for decades. Trump has shown no remorse for those killed in Yemen by US special forces and Saudi Arabian bombs on his watch—he’s lifted restrictions on selling the kingdom more bombs!

In this scenario, the false flag was a strike—as was the Michael Flynn affair—by the complex against Trump. Objectively, the false flag was so suspicious that the reasonable course would have been to investigate before launching military action. This may have been what the complex thought Trump would do. If he had, its media allies would have had a field day lambasting “treasonous” Trump as soft on chemical warfare tyrant Assad, and more importantly, on Assad’s ally, Vladimir Putin. There would have been innumerable comparisons to that wimp Obama and his red line. Once again, the complex thought it had Trump backed into a corner.

http://legalinsurrection.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/Red-lining-590-LI.jpg

Except Trump called its bluff. He has given the complex what it claims it wants—a measured, strategic response—and has been lauded by its propaganda organs for doing so. The question going forward: what else will he do? Will he put large numbers of US troops on the ground in a full-fledged effort to depose Assad? Will he risk war with Russia, Iran, Hezbollah, and possibly China, with the attendant risks of terrorist blowback and increased refugee flows? Almost certainly not. Even within the complex there are cooler heads (not all, but some) who realize a full-blown war in the Middle East would be disastrous, and Trump has expressed the same sentiment, many times. Trump is already seeing his base jump ship (Paul Joseph Watson, Ann Coulter). A war would drive it bat-sh¡t crazy.

Perhaps indicating his desire not to escalate the situation, Trump warned the Russians, who in turn warned Syria, of the impending attack. Other than wasting $60 million dollars worth of Tomahawk missiles, some of which did not hit their target (but did the give the Russians a chance to field test their antimissile technology), and perhaps rendering a Syrian air base inoperative, what has the attack accomplished? Trump has given the complex and its media a minimalist gesture they may not have expected, but which they must publicly support and praise.

However, there is no stomach in this country for a big power war in the Middle East, one that could potentially spread. Everyone remembers the public outcry in 2013 that prompted Obama and Congress’s embarrassing retreat from promised red line consequences in Syria and acceptance of Putin’s face-saving gesture, the removal of Assad’s chemical weapons. Trump retains the option for more of these measured, strategic responses, and he has given himself a lot of room. Having shown he’ll use force in Syria, he’ll look reasonable if he resists the complex’s calls for military escalation and regime change. He’ll have most of the American public (which is fine with missiles, drones, and special operations, but not full-blown war), and certainly his base, on his side.

http://cs8.pikabu.ru/post_img/2017/03/28/0/149064946511998613.jpg

The Trump-is-Putin’s-puppet story has been laid to rest. Having established his anti-Putin bona fides, somewhere in the future he can initiate a Nixon-goes-to-China rapprochement. He’s also sent a not so subtle message to both Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping (who got that message while eating dinner with Trump): play good cop to Assad and North Korea’s Kim Jong-un respectively, or he will play the unpredictable, impetuous bad cop (http://straightlinelogic.com/2017/04/07/symbols-of-strength-by-raul-ilargi-meijer/).

SLL believes Donald Trump is consistently underestimated and the Deep State consistently overestimated. If Trump’s bombing initiates a full blown war in the Middle East and perhaps elsewhere, then SLL is wrong and Trump’s an idiot, Deep State stooge, scoundrel, and whatever else you want to call him. If, however, Syria quiets down; Russia, Iran, and Hezbollah subdue ISIS as Assad stays in power; China restrains North Korea, and there is eventually US-Russian rapprochement rather than war, then the tab for Donald Trump’s missiles will be reckoned the best money the government ever wasted.

Trusting Your Government in a Time of War

Guest Post by Scott Adams (http://blog.dilbert.com/post/159418166356/trusting-your-government-in-a-time-of-war)

https://wearechange.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/trump-losing-supporters-440x264.jpg

President Trump’s critics and supporters agree on one thing: Our new president has a history of “stretching” the truth whenever there is some advantage in doing so, and sometimes even when there is not. You might say he is famous for playing loose with the facts. We all expect a high degree of “hyperbole” from President Trump, to put it kindly. He gets away with it because barely-enough Americans believe his intentions are in line with America’s best interests.

The odd exception to our universal understanding of President Trump’s mode of operation is his claim that he is totally certain Assad was responsible for the chemical attack on his own people last week. The President’s critics and most of his supporters believe President Trump when he suggests that our military can track any plane in Syria and know what that plane did to whom.

Do you believe that?

I have it on good authority that the United States can track and identify aircraft in Syria. But does that mean we are watching (or recording) every plane at every minute, and we also know what ordinance they dropped?

Do you believe, for example, that our military can identify Syrian jets doing a normal bombing run at the same time as a hobby-sized ISIS drone drops some sarin gas in the blast zone? Can our satellites see that?

Or suppose rebels lobbed an artillery shell with sarin into a village that was being bombed at the same time. Would our satellites and drones and AWACS pick up the incoming round?

Maybe.

But my experience of life is that literally nothing works that well.

Or to put it another way, if we could do sh¡t like that, the war would be over in a week. We’d know who every player on the ground was, and what they were doing, at all times. Heck, if we can detect a hobby-sized drone with a gas canister strapped to its belly from outer space, we don’t need boots-on-the-ground to beat ISIS. We can kill everyone who needs killing from the sky.

Generally speaking, the information you get from a war zone is fiction. You wouldn’t want it any other way. The Commander-in-Chief has to simultaneously manage public opinion and a military conflict. In the context of war, misinformation can be a useful tool. History would give a free pass to any president who misled the public in the interest of national security.

My view is that the public will never know for sure who was behind the Syrian gas attack. But I also think it doesn’t matter because most of the world believes Assad was behind it. And that created options for Trump to get an advantage in Syria while simultaneously “negotiating” with China, North Korea, Russia, Congress, the American public, world opinion, Iran, Israel, and anyone else who is watching.

Some critics have pointed out that launching 59 Tomahawk Cruise Missiles is expensive. But it is starting to look like a good investment, at least so far. That could change, of course.

It is entirely possible that Assad launched the gas attacks to test for a U.S. reaction. Perhaps our military does have 100% certainty about the source of the attack. All I’m saying is that war-related claims have no credibility by their very nature. And in this specific case, the truth is irrelevant. What matters is that the allegation of Assad’s guilt opened new strategic options at a reasonable cost, and President Trump jumped on them.

That’s all we know for sure.

Hi Sam.

Reading body language is something I've done a bit of... but, I pay more attention to the vibration that I'm feeling from the voicing of what is being said... like gut sensations. Facial expressions are quite easy to read... despite what the individuals words may be saying. The James Comey w/ Gen Rogers hearing being questioned by Trey Gowdy was very fun to watch. As the commentator said, General Rogers was a pretty good tattle teller of what was going on... Clapper central to the Trump Surveillance Conspiracy...

The woman that has put these videos together is quite good, imo. However, I do notice that she does overlay some of her own opinionated beliefs onto what she is seeing. She was quite right on with Lt General McMaster, imo... being the #1 guy behind the missile strike idea. The men that have tough exteriors lend themselves, it seems, to be more easy to read what their body language is signaling.

I found this quite interesting material.

I've posted the Steve Pieczenik video. I looked to see if she did a RDS analysis... but alas, she did not. I posted a comment asking her if she could also get a read on him... just to see...

The following has been cross-posted onto the Latest from Robert David Steele (http://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?96942-Latest-from-Robert-David-Steele--1-April-2017-&p=1145913&viewfull=1#post1145913) thread...

I found this short video regarding Robert David Steele saying that Trump's missile launch was his JFK Bay of Pigs / Cuban Missile Crisis moment... In this video, it appears that Steve Pieczenik & RDS are not quite on the same page... so, that is what I was looking for... Post this below.

As a side note: I would tend to agree with Robert David Steele's layout of the very 1st of 3 possible scenarios that could be going on with this Syrian Missile strike situation...

Below is also something I had brought to RDS's attention previously. And this is Donald Trump's use of Game Theory used in his method of negotiating & deal-making.

Late Add................................

If this 1st scenario were to be true, then it would pretty much line up with what Steve Pieczenik has had to say in his most recent Infowars interview video with David Knight.

Keep in mind... the missile strike had been timed to when Trump was just sitting down to have dinner with the Chinese dictator... and note what recently occured with the reporting of Chinese troops massing at the border of North Korea... then, their are these other most recent headlines...

While the catalyst is unclear, it appears the market dropped as headlines of further sanctions against Russia appeared and reports of China deploiying 150,000 troops to its North Korea border.

"To achieve their mating goals, male elephants will sometimes play games of chicken, with one individual essentially giving the impression that he is crazy and has become an irrational player in a game premised on shared rationality and predictability." – Professor David Barash, Op-Ed in the NYTimes (http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001hMDYFEryQGPIATeN9fv_kZPc3mbaM4W8J5ALfZ paZrSk3R3xXXPtL0ns1M5GPJC6b1CFhCqeYzbu1Pn3WYYsXuY1 CusBBjctYbVX5bJgGV1tLLG1oNtWV4uUVnITtfQFbZJmhSHLQ8 By5ps0XOX6nnDRPthN1FI3gUY_aAbeLajUqHPeDvJytDYdt21e xgxMumKMrFlVBmPfnKEKBLm82pcFBowxNEfa&c=16pcESSO0Jkw2yky8eJeNm24Ah-9nO-CEO808IL8eqfx59V2rUYN8A==&ch=m4DwkuizT7Yp20dC68oj465u41Pjk0-jQqZGk-G6xs2W7efGEwJQUw==), 2011
Happy Chinese New Year 2017
The year of the Rooster!

Fittingly, this Year of the Rooster corresponds with a surge in a cock-inspired game in international negotiations: playing chicken (http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001hMDYFEryQGPIATeN9fv_kZPc3mbaM4W8J5ALfZ paZrSk3R3xXXPtLxw5KdnIVNQM_ZUE_YmzF4QKEvn_-AVjowkpMT3yb8rx4Op982F7AXFZLZI6RM5jx8463peJJBESRHP XANYfGkqGKExczLMFA2HVckOhpVPqDDk23go5R2EaWAktkByl5 AbIymaaiPGtOTdj7D6rXdUm_vmx_bIzrw==&c=16pcESSO0Jkw2yky8eJeNm24Ah-9nO-CEO808IL8eqfx59V2rUYN8A==&ch=m4DwkuizT7Yp20dC68oj465u41Pjk0-jQqZGk-G6xs2W7efGEwJQUw==).

As a young man I occasionally stood on the bridges across the Rio Grande, practicing Spanish and watching Mexicans commute to work in the United States. They bagged their clothes, paid a peso or two to a man with an inner tube, and were gently pulled across the river under the eye of inert border patrol agents. U.S. customs wasn't apparently concerned enough to intervene.

I myself climbed under the fence or waded the river a few times out of convenience or curiosity. Even the Laredo, Texas INS chief's nanny was well-known to commute to work that way. In subsequent years the border has obviously tightened. And now we're hearing about The Wall, whose conception has badly punished the Mexican Peso and local stocks.

As active investors it is our job to predict trends and reactions in global economies and markets. Donald Trump's spontaneity has introduced a degree of unpredictability to our work. His negotiations around trade agreements, immigration policy, tax policy, military arrangements (NATO), and budgetary allocations are all going to be significant to the markets over the next year. Whether one agrees with Trump's proposals or not, it's important to know how he will pursue them, when he will go full force, and when he might back down.

Trump's tactics are familiar - and perhaps predictable - to students of game theory. Today's newsletter looks at this important topic - one we have addressed previously - the psychology of negotiation and playing chicken. Later we look at a turn in U.S. Dollar sentiment around the U.S. election and its aftermath.

Game Theory in the Real World

In this past newsletter (http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001hMDYFEryQGPIATeN9fv_kZPc3mbaM4W8J5ALfZ paZrSk3R3xXXPtLxw5KdnIVNQM3UVkoTatXr4oWivezh950N6I g00Zx6EWOxLi74Mrh76Ux7Y8N0i7Af-J1-5BS0OT1vfNYCaRC-zRAk0s-gjYOH2pHPwWDMHy_XyTBTQkpidb9058JtNelppc3jk88IFy_T_ 2GUApHrXuLkZr0289QmdI_c4DGcVfMmX8IiJ0_CdPmdP4MZElH g==&c=16pcESSO0Jkw2yky8eJeNm24Ah-9nO-CEO808IL8eqfx59V2rUYN8A==&ch=m4DwkuizT7Yp20dC68oj465u41Pjk0-jQqZGk-G6xs2W7efGEwJQUw==) on the Iranian pursuit of nuclear weapons, we discussed how Professor David P. Barash explained the game theory of young male elephants as akin to playing chicken. When a player in a game is in a weaker position, the only way to get additional power is to fake crazy like an elephant in "musth (http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001hMDYFEryQGPIATeN9fv_kZPc3mbaM4W8J5ALfZ paZrSk3R3xXXPtLxw5KdnIVNQMNXi7oUiEgefIO_4x7T1MayIH oaf9o-utgmwGSExVbUyOWv6k2En7WxjokVPTXsJ9LRH4Ns1sRvVnSfWV JOXbv86vQVYrVnuoElmLWgvJp1CyMLkGOi4EPoQG_K4LEHqc&c=16pcESSO0Jkw2yky8eJeNm24Ah-9nO-CEO808IL8eqfx59V2rUYN8A==&ch=m4DwkuizT7Yp20dC68oj465u41Pjk0-jQqZGk-G6xs2W7efGEwJQUw==)".

Donald Trump may be in a position of "low power" (from a legal perspective) as he begins to renegotiate U.S. trade agreements. Yet there is a businessman's logic to his negotiation tactics.

Trump's Negotiation Style
(or just Playing Crazy)

In order to predict the future, we need to understand Trump's style, regardless of whether we agree with his policies.

To quote at length from the op-ed (http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001hMDYFEryQGPIATeN9fv_kZPc3mbaM4W8J5ALfZ paZrSk3R3xXXPtL0ns1M5GPJC6b1CFhCqeYzbu1Pn3WYYsXuY1 CusBBjctYbVX5bJgGV1tLLG1oNtWV4uUVnITtfQFbZJmhSHLQ8 By5ps0XOX6nnDRPthN1FI3gUY_aAbeLajUqHPeDvJytDYdt21e xgxMumKMrFlVBmPfnKEKBLm82pcFBowxNEfa&c=16pcESSO0Jkw2yky8eJeNm24Ah-9nO-CEO808IL8eqfx59V2rUYN8A==&ch=m4DwkuizT7Yp20dC68oj465u41Pjk0-jQqZGk-G6xs2W7efGEwJQUw==) in the New York Times (http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001hMDYFEryQGPIATeN9fv_kZPc3mbaM4W8J5ALfZ paZrSk3R3xXXPtL0ns1M5GPJC6b1CFhCqeYzbu1Pn3WYYsXuY1 CusBBjctYbVX5bJgGV1tLLG1oNtWV4uUVnITtfQFbZJmhSHLQ8 By5ps0XOX6nnDRPthN1FI3gUY_aAbeLajUqHPeDvJytDYdt21e xgxMumKMrFlVBmPfnKEKBLm82pcFBowxNEfa&c=16pcESSO0Jkw2yky8eJeNm24Ah-9nO-CEO808IL8eqfx59V2rUYN8A==&ch=m4DwkuizT7Yp20dC68oj465u41Pjk0-jQqZGk-G6xs2W7efGEwJQUw==) that opened this newsletter:

"It's a tactic that works surprisingly well, because male elephants can in fact become temporarily 'crazy'. One of the most terrifying sights in the animal world is an elephant in a state of 'musth': Huge bulls, oozing a weird, foul-smelling, greenish glop from glands near their eyes, behave with violent abandon, taking risks and defying the basic rules of pachyderm propriety (and also giving rise to the term "rogue elephant"). Facing an elephant in must, other elephants — not to mention people — are well advised to get out of the way."Dr. Barash explains that by playing chicken - as Donald Trump may be inclined to do as he renegotiates terms of existing trade agreements - low-power players can extract additional concessions due to their hardliner stance. As he puts it,

"The trick to winning is for one player to convince the other that under no circumstance will he or she veer off course." Dr. Barash continues, "Another tactic, favored by the strategist Herman Kahn, is to "throw out the steering wheel," to demonstrate that you are locked into a certain path and can't swerve."
When playing chicken it is best to convince your opponent that either:

You have no alternative course of action and so CANNOT compromise ("my constituents won't let me back down"), or
You are stone-cold crazy and could care less about the consequences to yourself ("I will take you down with me if that's how it has to be!").

Both of these strategies increase the negotiating power of a lesser player, but they also presume a rational analysis of the situation by that player. Sometimes your opponent truly is crazy, and you will always lose when playing chicken with such an opponent (as will they, but they won't care).

If Trump keeps his competitors guessing
what type of crazy he is, then he has already won.

Per Prof. Barash:

"In either case, whether you're confronting a rogue elephant or a rogue nuclear state, the advice is the same: stop playing the game. Avoid the elephant or shoot it; politically isolate the rogue state or use military force to disarm it."But Trump won't let his opponents stop playing the game. They are locked in, and in his early negotiations, he has the advantage of unpredictability.

Trump's negotiation style works well when the bottom line of every negotiation is money. (Who cares about pride in business if there is money to be made?) But in international negotiations, national pride can be wounded (Mexico this week (http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001hMDYFEryQGPIATeN9fv_kZPc3mbaM4W8J5ALfZ paZrSk3R3xXXPtLxw5KdnIVNQMZSB3vQC5lRwTaTf4WJVqeWAk Tab0iDZPok1NIfs8daFxUB1y2t7YCUfnGEzj7Rst9RefHkrF21 9rd5PXDcBLcMBr8LrwYOs9Jw7PFZiWESAue_P4K32pX63yi2lG 3ER3GNZ3LHnjwbh0pj1gCl6FCbMGLyw71FiQbeAA3Kn0LlqX42 QYi5hdyQqDOQfc4VCvxtjUldpG3oqOv2b2gy96NA==&c=16pcESSO0Jkw2yky8eJeNm24Ah-9nO-CEO808IL8eqfx59V2rUYN8A==&ch=m4DwkuizT7Yp20dC68oj465u41Pjk0-jQqZGk-G6xs2W7efGEwJQUw==) and perhaps China later this year). When pride is wounded, national dignity often trumps (-sorry-) economic self-interest.

In terms of sheer political survival, it is rational for a government to appease its own public opinion about being bullied by playing chicken until the collision. Trump himself has staked such a stance in his blocking of free trade agreements such as the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP), perhaps to his negotiating advantage.

But the real question remains unanswered - is Trump actually crazy or just playing crazy like an elephant in musth? As a psychiatrist I can't ethically answer (http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001hMDYFEryQGPIATeN9fv_kZPc3mbaM4W8J5ALfZ paZrSk3R3xXXPtLxw5KdnIVNQMyJJn4YyV_ou3jJqfSJswmdEw dZwK1cPKJkeI_BzzbOEN2g0mNtS-LFFIDD4S6U9oWmPsnhiPuzR9hg3sS1v0tdgpy3_QKpTpsaQLVr 1u__QLYs3VXo_jp8oiQkFvQs67Q6T1HE-3ID4=&c=16pcESSO0Jkw2yky8eJeNm24Ah-9nO-CEO808IL8eqfx59V2rUYN8A==&ch=m4DwkuizT7Yp20dC68oj465u41Pjk0-jQqZGk-G6xs2W7efGEwJQUw==) that question. From this past week it appears that he will be consistent with his campaign promises. And in that sense there will be less unpredictability than his twitchy Twitter finger would suggest.

U.S. Dollar Sentiment

The election of Donald Trump prefaced surge in positive sentiment about U.S. stocks and the U.S. Dollar. A sentiment view of the U.S. Dollar is below.

https://d1yhils6iwh5l5.cloudfront.net/charts/resized/45895/normal/marketpsych_sentiment.png (https://d1yhils6iwh5l5.cloudfront.net/charts/resized/45895/large/marketpsych_sentiment.png)

Note that the U.S. Dollar has stabilized at a level well-above it's low of the pre-election period, so it's not as if the market doesn't trust Trump. But the original enthusiasm has faded as we settle into the messy business of negotiating and governing.

The month of February may set the sentiment tone for the year as we come to understand whether Trump has a method to his perceived madness, or whether conflict and turmoil will be a baseline state for the next four years.

Houskeeping and Closing

Just as Wall Street climbs a "Wall of Worry," we are at all-time highs in the equity markets. A bit of stress and a shake-up of the system may be just what the U.S. needs. And unless some clear method is discerned in the madness, it's likely that the perception of madness IS the preferred method of the next four years under Trump.

As Trump himself noted in his 1987 book, “The Art of the Deal,” (https://www.amazon.com/Trump-Art-Deal-Donald-J/dp/0399594493) and paraphrased from the WSJ (http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001hMDYFEryQGPIATeN9fv_kZPc3mbaM4W8J5ALfZ paZrSk3R3xXXPtLxw5KdnIVNQMZSB3vQC5lRwTaTf4WJVqeWAk Tab0iDZPok1NIfs8daFxUB1y2t7YCUfnGEzj7Rst9RefHkrF21 9rd5PXDcBLcMBr8LrwYOs9Jw7PFZiWESAue_P4K32pX63yi2lG 3ER3GNZ3LHnjwbh0pj1gCl6FCbMGLyw71FiQbeAA3Kn0LlqX42 QYi5hdyQqDOQfc4VCvxtjUldpG3oqOv2b2gy96NA==&c=16pcESSO0Jkw2yky8eJeNm24Ah-9nO-CEO808IL8eqfx59V2rUYN8A==&ch=m4DwkuizT7Yp20dC68oj465u41Pjk0-jQqZGk-G6xs2W7efGEwJQUw==) his style is:

"To aim very high,” and then to keep “pushing and pushing to get what I’m after.” “Sometimes I settle for less than I sought,” he continued, “but in most cases I still end up with what I want.”

A multi-level analysis of the US cruise
missile attack on Syria and its consequences (http://thesaker.is/a-multi-level-analysis-of-the-us-cruise-missile-attack-on-syria-and-its-consequences/)

By The Saker
April 11, 2017

The latest US cruise missile attack on the Syrian airbase is an extremely important event in so many ways that it is important to examine it in some detail. I will try to do this today with the hope to be able to shed some light on a rather bizarre attack which will nevertheless have profound consequences. But first, let’s begin by looking at what actually happened.

The pretext:
I don’t think that anybody seriously believes that Assad or anybody else in the Syrian government really ordered a chemical weapons attack on anybody. To believe that it would require you to find the following sequence logical: first, Assad pretty much wins the war against Daesh which is in full retreat (http://www.veteranstoday.com/2016/12/06/u-s-officials-russia-and-assad-won-the-syrian-war-and-new-world-order-agents-lost/). Then, the US declares that overthrowing Assad is not a priority anymore (http://www.aljazeera.com/news/2017/03/nikki-haley-bashar-al-assad-syria-170331005600046.html) (up to here this is all factual and true). Then, Assad decides to use weapons he does not have (http://www.reuters.com/article/us-syria-crisis-chemicalweapons-idUSKBN0EY18T20140623). He decides to bomb a location with no military value, but with lots of kids and cameras. Then, when the Russians demand a full investigation, the Americans strike as fast as they can before this idea gets any support. And now the Americans are probing a possible Russian role in this so-called attack (http://www.cnn.com/2017/04/07/world/syria-military-strikes-donald-trump-russia/). Frankly, if you believe any of that, you should immediately stop reading and go back to watching TV. For the rest of us, there are three options:

a classical US-executed false flag
a Syrian strike on a location which happened to be storing some kind of gas, possibly chlorine, but most definitely not sarin. This option requires you to believe in coincidences. I don’t. Unless,
the US fed bad intelligence to the Syrians and got them to bomb a location where the US knew that toxic gas was stored.

What is evident is that the Syrians did not drop chemical weapons from their aircraft and that no chemical gas was ever stored at the al-Shayrat airbase. There is no footage showing any munitions or containers which would have delivered the toxic gas. As for US and other radar recordings, all they can show is that an aircraft was in the sky, its heading, altitude and speed. There is no way to distinguish a chemical munition or a chemical attack by means of radar.

Whatever option you chose, the Syrian government is obviously and self-evidently innocent of the accusation of having used chemical weapons. This is most likely a false flag attack.

Also, and just for the record, the US had been considering exactly such a false flag attack in the past. You can read everything about this plan here (http://www.globalresearch.ca/deleted-daily-mail-online-article-us-backed-plan-for-chemical-weapon-attack-in-syria-to-be-blamed-on-assad/5339178) and here (http://web.archive.org/web/20130129213824/http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2270219/U-S-planned-launch-chemical-weapon-attack-Syria-blame-Assad.html).

The attack:
American and Russian sources both agree on the following facts: 2 USN ships launched 59 Tomahawk cruise missiles at the Al Shayrat airfield in Syria. The US did not consult with the Russians on a political level, but through military channels the US gave Russia 2 hours advance warning. At this point the accounts begin to differ.

The Americans say that all missiles hit their targets. The Russians say that only 23 cruise missiles hit the airfield. The others are “unaccounted for”. Here I think that it is indisputable that the Americans are lying and the Russians are saying the truth: the main runway is intact (the Russian reporters provided footage proving this) and only one taxiway was hit. Furthermore, the Syrian Air Force resumed its operations within 24 hours. 36 cruise missiles have not reached their intended target. That is a fact.

It is also indisputable that there were no chemical munitions at this base as nobody, neither the Syrians nor the Russian reporters, had to wear any protective gear.

The missiles used in the attack, the Tomahawk, can use any combination of three guidance systems: GPS, inertial navigation and terrain mapping. There is no evidence and even no reports that the Russians shot even a single air-defense missile. In fact, the Russians had signed a memorandum with the USA which specifically comitting Russia NOT to interfere with any US overflights, manned or not, over Syria (and vice versa). While the Tomahawk cruise missile was developed in the 1980s, there is no reason to believe that the missiles used had exceeded their shelf live and there is even evidence that they were built in 2014 (http://thesaker.is/syria-us-missile-strike-naval-brief-nb-0517-april-08-2017-by-ledahu/). The Tomahawk is known to be accurate and reliable. There is absolutely no basis to suspect that over half of the missiles fired simply spontaneously malfunctioned. I therefore see only two possible explanations for what happened to the 36 missing cruise missiles:

Explanation A: Trump never intended to really hit the Syrians hard and this entire attack was just “for show” and the USN deliberately destroyed these missiles over the Mediterranean. That would make it possible for Trump to appear tough while not inflicting the kind of damage which would truly wreck his plans to collaborate with Russia. I do not believe in this explanation and I will explain why in the political analysis below.

Explanation B: The Russians could not legally shoot down the US missiles. Furthermore, it is incorrect to assume that these cruise missiles flew a direct course from the Mediterranean to their target (thereby almost overflying the Russian radar positions). Tomahawk were specifically built to be able to fly tangential courses around some radar types and they also have a very low RCS (radar visibility), especially in the frontal sector. Some of these missiles were probably flying low enough not to be seen by Russian radars, unless the Russians had an AWACS in the air (I don’t know if they did). However, since the Russians were warned about the attack they had plenty of time to prepare their electronic warfare stations to “fry” and otherwise disable at least part of the cruise missiles. I do believe that this is the correct explanation. I do not know whether the Russian were technically unable to destroy and confuse the 23 missiles which reached the base or whether a political decision was taken to let less than half of the cruise missiles through in order to disguise the Russian role in the destruction of 36 missiles. What I am sure of is that 36 advanced cruise missile do not “just disappear”. There are two reasons why the Russians would have decided to use their EW systems and not their missiles: first, it provides them “plausible deninability” (at least for the general public, there is no doubt that US signal intelligence units did detect the Russian electronic interference (unless it happened at very low power and very high frequency and far away inland), and because by using EW systems it allowed them to keep their air defense missiles for the protection of their own forces. Can the Russian really do this?

Take a look at this image, taken from a Russian website (http://liveras.mirtesen.ru/blog/43184737459/Buduschee-voyn:-kompleksyi-radioelektronnoy-borbyi-REB-Krasuha-4), which appears to have been made by the company Kret which produces some of the key Russian electronic warfare systems. Do you notice that on the left hand side, right under the AWACs aircraft you can clearly see a Tomahawk type missile turning around and eventually exploding at sea?

How this is done is open to conjecture. All that we are told is that the missile is given a “false target” but for our purposes this really does not matter. What matters is that the Russians have basically leaked the information that they are capable of turning cruise missiles around. There are other possibilities such as an directed energy beams which basically fries or, at least, confuses the terrain following and or inertial navigation systems. Some have suggested a “kill switch” which would shut down the entire missile. Maybe. Again, this really doesn’t matter for our purposes. What matters is that the Russian have the means to spoof, redirect or destroy US cruise missiles. It sure appears to be that for the first time these systems were used in anger.

[Sidebar: for those interested in seeing what such a system looks like here is a short video made by the Russians themselves showing how such a system is deployed and operated:
