Ms. Maria Bartiromo interviews Senator Lindsey Graham, yet again, about the surveillance coup effort and the recent documents released in the Flynn case. Once again, Senator Graham claims he will use his position as Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman to initiate an investigation of those in the DOJ and FBI who have continually lied to the FISA court, the U.S. judicial system (various judges), and the America people.
Bartiromo calls Graham out on his lack of action; however, once again Senator Graham hides behind an “ongoing investigation.” This “I’m not going to interfere in an ongoing criminal matter” is the exact same excuse Graham used previously in: (1) the Mueller investigation; (2) the Horowitz investigation; (3) the IG review of the FBI FISA abuse; (4) the IG review of Andrew McCabe; (4) the IG review of Comey’s memos; and now the Durham investigation into the origins of Obama’s political targeting and Flynn.
.
I will keep repeating this until the Hope-Porn sellers catch up. Graham cannot, and will not, take any investigation action within the Senate because senators were involved in the FBI/DOJ and Intelligence Community operations. His own chamber, and the Senators on his own committee, were participants in the schemes.
[John McCain, Richard Burr, Dianne Feinstein, Mark Warner, Lindsey Graham, Chuck Schumer, Mitch McConnell, Marco Rubio, and every person sitting on the SSCI know what happened and who was participating. The SSCI controls who is allowed to be CIA Director, NSA Director, FBI Director, Director of National Intelligence and Intel Community Inspector General. The nominees must pass through this committee. Senator Burr and Senator Warner are the Chairman and Vice-Chair respectively. Both blocked Ratcliffe.]
Everything, and I do mean EVERYTHING, about the inaction behind politicians, DC, the intel community, the current FBI and the Current DOJ, showing their unwillingness to do anything….. all of it…. circles back to the Summer of 2018 when:
(1) WHEN the decision was made not to prosecute James Wolfe for leaking the top-secret and classified FISA application (that contained the lies needed to continue surveillance operations).
(2) WHEN the DOJ/FBI lied to the FISA court; they didn’t mislead – they lied in July 2018; about the continued valid predication for the FISA application.
(3) WHEN the DOJ/FBI and SSCI operated in unison to protect Mueller’s investigation as a tool to cover-up their own participation in an effort to target and remove Donald Trump.
(4) WHEN the DOJ/FBI and Intelligence Community threw a bag over Julian Assange; anticipating in advance and preparing for the Mueller report to come out.
(5) WHEN the DOJ/FBI and total IC continued to hide, mislead, stall, redact and remove damaging information that would have outlined the intent and purpose of the surveillance effort against Donald Trump.
Those 2018 decision were an inflection point; a massive signal flare fired from the epicenter of Washington DC; that should have alerted everyone to think carefully about the ramifications and WHY the institutions were going to take no action.
The consequences from those decisions are only just now starting to come out because some of the material connects to the Flynn case.
Unless and until John Durham or Bill Barr are going to admit what took place within the DOJ/FBI and Intelligence Community in the summer of 2018, nothing is going to change.
Nothing.
If Durham and Barr decide to allow the truth to come out; Bill Barr is going to have to reverse all of his support for the 2018 participants which includes: Robert Mueller, Rod Rosenstein, Chris Wray, Dana Boente and all of the DC politicians who were/are attached to the fraud and scheme.
That reality is what CTH previously called The Big Ugly.
As soon as CTH saw all five of those points above; and as soon as we accepted the ramifications of the 2018 actions identified; CTH stopped outlining the possibility of a quest for justice and started accepting that, unless a complete change in top-level officials were instituted, no justice would be delivered. We are asking the participants to prosecute themselves.
Do you see AG Bill Barr positioning toward telling those truths?…
Or do you see AG Bill Barr positioning to mitigate for survival against those truths?…
Joe Biden has been finally forced to go on the record and strongly deny Tara Reade’s allegations that he sexually assaulted her in 1993—but he was given an inexplicably easy ride by interviewer Mika Brzezinski on MSNBC.
Brzezinski’s 20-minute interview followed shortly after a statement released by Biden claiming that the truth of Tara Reade’s allegations could be established by conducting a document search in the National Archives to find any written complaint—as Reade alleged having been made to her superiors.
Concealment of documents and destruction of documents
Concealment of documents and destruction of documents featured prominently in the FBI investigation involving Hillary Clinton and her private server.
Uncovering new documents never produced in response to Freedom of Information applications is par for the course.
Finding a document in an archive before believing Reade’s allegations? Breathtaking.
Amazingly, Biden was not asked one question by Brzezinski about corroborating witnesses the New York Times had interviewed—nor a potentially damning Larry King video that could collaborate Reade’s account.
The New York Times had published a long article on April 12—updated on April 29 Examining Tara Reade’s Sexual Assault Allegation Against Joe Biden,
An enormous amount of investigative resources were undoubtedly deployed in what appeared to be a long and thorough report.
Many people were interviewed. Their statements were published supporting no contemporaneous complaint had been made by Reade.
A small section of the article stated:
A friend said that Ms. Reade told her about the alleged assault at the time, in 1993. A second friend recalled Ms. Reade telling her in 2008 that Mr. Biden had touched her inappropriately and that she’d had a traumatic experience while working in his office. Both friends agreed to speak to The Times on the condition of anonymity to protect the privacy of their families and their self-owned businesses.
Ms. Reade said she also told her brother, who has confirmed parts of her account publicly but who did not speak to The Times, and her mother, who has since died.”
The updated article made no mention of possible additional confirmatory evidence that had emerged on April 27— archival video supposedly of Reade’s mother anonymously calling Larry King’s show on CNN in 1993 and making a reference to what happened to her daughter.
Why the New York Times omitted to disclose this possibly very vital evidence in its updated report is for the NYT to explain.
It is understandable that Biden chose his TV appearance to be on MSNBC—a bitter critic of President Trump for the last four years—rather than FOX News—a supporter of the President—where Biden could have expected to come under more intense and uncomfortable questioning.
The mass media’s attempt to go easy on Biden will rebound badly
Fox’s allegations of Democrat-inspired tactics to defeat Trump in the 2016 elections—and when that failed—to end Trump’s Presidency—are now beginning to hit hard.
Latest revelations that the FBI—still operating under the Obama-Biden administration on January 4, 2017 —did not close off an investigation into Trump senior campaign advisor General Michael Flynn after clearing him of acting as a Russian agent during the 2016 campaign—are particularly disturbing.
The mass media—notably MSNBC and the New York Times—have paid scant attention to investigating what is increasingly being uncovered by Attorney General Bill Barr as the greatest political scandal in America’s history extending over four years or more—leaving the Watergate break-in a very distant second.
When President Trump continually calls the mass media “fake news”—victims such as Flynn and Reade confirm his assessment to be chillingly accurate.
The mass media’s attempt to go easy on Biden will rebound badly.
Neither my sister nor I collect Social Security. Nevertheless, she received a check in the mail made out to my deceased mother, and it says “DECD” for her stimulus check of $1,200. Not exactly sure what to do with this check. How would we cash it? This is really confusing. It will probably cost $1,000 for legal advice to figure out if the check should be cashed or if they would call it fraud because we knew she was deceased, even though it is made out to her as deceased. Sort of a trick question with consequences.
This is why I say the government is just incapable of ever doing anything whatsoever. They would never be able to run even a bubblegum machine. When they sold out of gum, they would need three committees to investigate, and a fourth one to figure out how much to raise taxes to buy more bubblegum. The Justice Department would need to investigate if someone got two pieces of gum with one coin, provided they are not related to a politician.
The recently unsealed documents in the Flynn case provide some key information to fill in a timeline that shows exactly why incoming National Security Advisor Michael Flynn needed to be removed by the pre-existing Obama intelligence community. WATCH:
You might note the recent releases from internal FBI documents surround three specific phases of activity, representing individual blocks of time, amid a longer timeline:
(1) The transition period. A set of actions in December 2016 through early January 2017; which includes the FBI deciding to stop the investigation of Flynn (FARA-Russia) January 4th; and the apoplexy of the FBI to continue it.
(2) The immediate days of the Trump administration; and the need for the FBI to target Flynn on January 24, 2017, surrounding a Logan Act violation.
(3) The assembly of an FBI narrative following the January 24th interview; which includes the planning by the FBI for how to write up the Flynn interview notes culminating on February 15th.
Each of the phases had a separate FBI and DOJ targeting approach; there was an evolution in the justification. The first targeting of Flynn (2016) used FARA-Russia. The second targeting (January 2017) used the Logan Act. The third targeting, taken over by Robert Mueller (mid-2017), was FARA-Turkey. In each phase the media was used by the FBI as a conduit for their effort.
If we look at specific actions, and overlay the new documents, the motives for the actions are a lot more clear. It starts with the Obama administration concocting a narrative that Russians interfered in the November 2016 election.
~ PHASE ONE ~
♦ December 29, 2016 – The intelligence community releases the Joint Analysis Report(JAR). This is timed to coincide with President Obama ordering 35 Russian officials to leave the country. (Yahoo Media)
♦ December 29, 2016 – Reacting to the sanctions, Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak calls incoming National Security Director Michael Flynn. The intelligence community is monitoring the call. (Mueller Report)
♦ December 31, 2016 – Kislyak Call #2 (Mueller Report)
♦ January 4, 2017 – The FBI Washington Field Office informs the intelligence community via an Electronic Communication, they are closing the 2016 Flynn investigation.
♦ January 4, 2017 – FBI Agent Peter Strzok says don’t close it.
♦ January 5, 2017 – James Comey goes to the White House: [Susan Rice Memo]
[Susan Rice] “President Obama began the conversation by stressing his continued commitment to ensuring that every aspect of this issue is handled by the Intelligence and law enforcement communities “by the book“.”
“The President stressed that he is not asking about, initiating or instructing anything from a law enforcement perspective. He reiterated that our law enforcement team needs to proceed as it normally would, “by the book.””
[Kathryn Ruemmler] The memorandum to file drafted by Ambassador Rice memorialized an important national security discussion between President Obama and the FBI Director and the Deputy Attorney General. President Obama and his national security team were justifiably concerned about potential risks to the Nation’s security from sharing highly classified information about Russia with certain members of the Trump transition team, particularly Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn.
January 6, 2017 – James Comey briefs President-elect Trump in Trump Tower on the Steele Dossier. [Comey Memos]
♦ January 7, 2017 – The intelligence community (Brennan, Clapper, Comey) released an “Intelligence Community Assessment” (ICA). The ICA took the ridiculous construct of the JAR and then overlaid a political narrative that Russia was trying to help Donald Trump.
♦ January 20, 2017 – Inauguration
~ PHASE TWO ~
♦ January 21, 2017 – The FBI is planning out how to exploit the transcript of Flynn’s conversation with Russian Ambassador Kislyak.
Crossfire Hurricane (CH) is the overall investigation that began in July 2016
Crossfire Typhoon (CT) is George Papadopoulos.
Crossfire Razor (CR) is Michael Flynn.
Cross Wind is still unknown. [Could be a person (Page), or a subset of the case]
First email is from Peter Strzok to the FBI team:
♦ January 22, 2017 – More planning and discussion about what approach to take. The follow-up email is from an unknown addressee to: Peter Strzok, John Moffa and Lisa Page. The outline is to provide Flynn [Razor] with a defensive briefing.
♦ January 23, 2017 – Lisa Page and Peter Strzok discussing FBI Deputy Director of Counterintelligence Bill Priestap having concerns about what they are doing:
♦ January 23 and 24, 2017 – Bill Priestap notes recently released highlight his concern:
FBI Director of Counterintelligence Bill Priestap is not comfortable with the way the FBI is planning to set-up Flynn on January 24th the day of the interview. He documents his concerns during a conversation with FBI Director James Comey and Deputy Director Andrew McCabe.
According to Lisa Page text: “(McCabe) dd is frustrated.”
~ PHASE THREE ~
The original authorization for the appointment of Special Counsel Robert Mueller was May 17th, 2017. However, the released Weissmann report shows there were two additional scope memos authorizing specific targeting of the Mueller probe. The first scope memo was August 2nd, 2017, OUTLINED HERE, and is an important part of the puzzle that helps explain the corrupt original purpose of the special counsel.
The second scope memo was issued by Rod Rosenstein to Robert Mueller on October 20th, 2017. The transparent intent of the second scope memo was to provide Weissmann and Mueller with ammunition and authority to investigate specific targets, for specific purposes. One of those targets was General Michael Flynn’s son, Michael Flynn Jr.
As you review the highlighted portion below, found on pages 12 and 13 of the Weissmann report, read slowly and fully absorb the intent; the corruption is blood-boiling:
This second scope memo allowed Weissmann and Mueller to target tangentially related persons and entities bringing in Michael Cohen, Richard Gates, Roger Stone and Michael Flynn Jr. Additionally and strategically (you’ll see why), this memo established the authority to pursue “jointly undertaken activity“.
The investigation of General Flynn never stopped throughout 2016 and led to the second investigative issue of his phone call with Russian Ambassador Kislyak in December 2016.
Within the case against Michael Flynn…. Prosecutor Brandon Van Grack filed a cover letter attempting to explain the reason for the Flynn interview on January 24th, 2017, and the official filing of the interview notes (FD-302) on February 15th, 2017, and then again on May 31st, 2017.
To explain the FBI delay, Van Grack claimed the FD-302 report “inadvertently” had a header saying “DRAFT DOCUMENT/DELIBERATIVE MATERIAL” (screen grab)
What the special counsel appeared to be obfuscating to the court was there was factually a process of deliberation within the investigative unit, headed by FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, surrounding the specific wording of the 302 report on the Flynn interview. Likely how best to word the FBI notes for maximum damage.
In late 2018 Prosecutor Brandon Van Grack was attempting to hide the length of the small group deliberations within the FBI. It seems he did not want the court to know Andrew McCabe was involved in shaping how the Flynn-302 was written.
We know there was a deliberative process in place, seemingly all about how to best position the narrative, because we can see the deliberations in text messages between Lisa Page and Peter Strzok: See below (note the dates).
Peter Strzok edited the interview notes, several times. Then he handed them off to Lisa Page to edit… and she did…. significantly:
The text message conversation above is February 10th and Feb 14th, 2017.
The Michael Flynn FD-302 was officially entered into the record on February 15th, 2017, per the report:
Obviously the interview took place on January 24th, 2017. The FD-302 was drafted on January 24th, and then later edited, shaped, and ultimately approved by McCabe, on February 14th, then entered into the official record on February 15th.
The FBI notes were a deliberative document from the outset. Thanks to the Strzok/Page text messages we know the cover letter from the Special Counsel is misleading. The Feb 15th, 2017, date was the day after McCabe approved it.
May 17th, 2017, Robert Mueller was assigned as special Counsel. Then, the FD-302 report was re-entered on May 31st, 2017, removing the header; paving the way for Mueller’s team to use the content therein.
The first redaction listed under “personal privacy” is unknown; however, The second related redaction is a specific person, Michael Flynn Jr.
In combination with the October timing, the addition of Flynn Jr to the target list relates to the ongoing 2016/2017 investigation of his father, General Michael Flynn, for: (1) possible conspiracy with Russia; (2) unregistered lobbying (Russia then Turkey); (3) materially false statements/omissions on 2017 FARA documents; and (4) lying to the FBI.
This October 20th, 2017, request from Weissmann and Mueller aligns with the time-frame were special counsel team lawyers Brandon L. Van Grack and Zainab N. Ahmad were prosecuting Michael Flynn and attempting to force him into a guilty plea.
Getting Rosenstein to authorize adding Mike Flynn Jr. to the target list (scope memo) meant the special counsel could threaten General Flynn with the indictment of his son as a co-conspirator tied to the Turkish lobbying issue (which they did) if he doesn’t agree to a plea. Remember: “jointly undertaken activity“.
The October 20th, 2017, expanded scope memo authorized Mueller to start demanding records, phones, electronic devices and other evidence from Mike Flynn Jr, and provided the leverage Weissmann wanted. After all, Mike Flynn Jr. had a four month old baby.
The amount of twisted pressure from this corrupt team of prosecutors is sickening. A month later, General Flynn was signing a plea agreement:
Fox Business Host Lou Dobbs outlines some stunning information about the recently released FBI documents and how they align with President Obama’s involvement.
Additionally, General Mike Flynn’s defense counsel, Sidney Powell, gives her perspective on the release and what it could mean for their case. Additionally, Ms. Powell discusses a rather odd order from Judge Sullivan to stop the defense from submitting further evidence in the case until the DOJ attests there is no evidence left to deliver.
Michael Flynn’s attorney Sidney Powell appears on Fox Business with Maria Bartiromo to provide an update on the latest documents showing the innocence of her client.
As Ms. Powell noted, yesterday afternoon Judge Sullivan ordered Powell to stop any further filings with the court until the DOJ affirms they have presented all evidence to her. Sullivan doesn’t want the drip, drip, drip, of damaging documents.
It was a setup from the very beginning… General Flynn was framed by the corrupt Obama DOJ.
Because anyone who supports President Trump MUST be Destroyed.
General Flynn must be exonerated.
The Deep State cabal put General Flynn and his family through almost three years of hell. They lost everything fighting the corrupt system. The Flynn family sacrificed so much to fight this injustice, because if it can happen to a three star general, it can happen to ordinary Americans. The two-tier justice system in action, Democrats good, all others expendable.
The Russian collusion was nothing but a witch-hunt and hoax, a false media narrative. How can anyone believe ANYTHING the FAKE NEWS Media says is beyond me. Fake news screamed, “Flynn is a Russian agent” starting in 2016 and keep it going ruthlessly. They are now caught with another hoax red handed. Will they be held accountable?
Will McCabe, Comey, Schiff and on and on, be held accountable?
Disgraced FBI director James Comey teamed up with McCabe and framed General Flynn, they threatened to “destroy” his son if Flynn didn’t agree to their terms and pressured Flynn to lie. They knew Flynn was innocent they purposely held back exculpatory evidence.
And they almost got away with it..
Enter Sidney Powell, the Avenger and General Flynn’s lawyer.
She is on the case and tirelessly working to defeat the swamp. We know General Flynn’s case affects us all. Thank you Sidney Powell for standing up against the Deep State cabal.
Last Friday Sidney Powell filed a motion to dismiss the case based on new Brady information that was FINALLY released by the Justice Department.
“This morning the govt produced to Mr. Flynn stunning Brady evidence that proves Mr. Flynn’s allegations of having been deliberately set up and framed by corrupt agents at the top of the FBI,”
“The new evidence defeats any argument that the interview of Mr. Flynn on January 24, 2017, was material to any “investigation.” The government has deliberately suppressed this evidence from the inception of this prosecution—knowing there was no crime by Mr. Flynn,”
Here come reinforcements!
AG Barr was has received these documents from Flynn’s attorneys and has opened an investigation into this case.
Justice for General Flynn and Justice for America! Destroy the two tier Justice system because everyone is SUPPOSED to be equal under the law.
Michael Flynn’s defense counsel, Sidney Powell, calls-in to FBN for an interview to discuss the latest developments in the case against her client. Powell: “There will be more evidence forthcoming. We still have a lot more that they said they will disclose to us.”
Within the latest documents provided by a review from Missouri U.S. Attorney Jensen, it surfaces that Peter Strzok, Lisa Page and the small group were using a Microsoft instant messaging program known as Lync. This suggests there may be more documents forthcoming from alternate communication networks.
Devin Nunes appears for an interview with Lou Dobbs to discuss his perspective on the latest stunning revelations around the Flynn case. Nunes outlines the importance of looking at the big picture and also considering how the same FBI that was investigating Flynn was purposefully leaking to allies in the media.
Nunes is pretty fired-up in this interview about the scale of corruption the recently released documents highlight.
FARA was always the way the Obama Administration IC apparatus, writ large, would legally justify political surveillance. [FARA = FISA] Hence Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates, knowing purpose of DOJ-NSD, who ran FARA/FISA operations, would not allow an inspector general.
This is why Flynn had to be removed at all costs.
Obama-era political surveillance was being done through the intelligence apparatus (including FBI contractors) since 2012; with FARA as a justification for FISA abuse when needed. Flynn’s mere existence in the administration would have exposed that background surveillance network.
