The sheer audacity of James Clapper in this segment is jaw-dropping.

After the former ODNI participated in weaponization of the entire intelligence apparatus specifically to target Donald Trump as a candidate and President, James Clapper now says that JoeBama should not give President Trump classified information because he “has used it to attack political enemies” in the past. WATCH:

CONTEXT – Keep in mind that James Clapper was an active, albeit rather stupid, participant in the targeting of Lt. General Michael Flynn.  It was Clapper who asked FBI Director James Comey on January 4th for the raw “CR Cuts” of Flynn’s conversation with Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak.  Clapper then took those raw transcript segments into the oval office to brief President Obama.  [Full Backstory Below]

When Clapper walked into the Oval Office with those transcripts January 4, 2017, he destroyed any opportunity for the Obama White House to say they did not know there was an FBI investigation of incoming National Security Advisor Michael Flynn.  However, the media ignored the evidence of the Obama lies when the truth finally surfaced, May 2020.

On January 5, 2017, President Obama and Susan Rice were discussing incoming National Security Advisor Michael Flynn with FBI Director James Comey. The motive for Susan Rice to write the January 20, 2017, memo to file becomes clear.  Here’s the paragraph:

Within this paragraph we find the motive for writing it (emphasis mine):

“Director Comey affirmed that he is proceeding “by the book” as it relates to law enforcement.” … “Comey said he does have some concerns that incoming NSA Flynn is speaking frequently with Russian Ambassador Kislyak.”  “Comey said that could be an issue as it relates to sharing senssitive information.”  “President Obama asked if Comey was saying that the NSC should not pass sensitive information related to Russia to Flynn.”  “Comey replied “potentially.””  “He added that he has no indication thus far that Flynn has passed classified information to Kislyak, but he noted that “the level of communication is unusual.”

Remember, the position of President Obama and Susan Rice is that they were unaware of any FBI investigation of Flynn (or the Trump campaign); nor did they have any involvement in directing it to take place.

The content of this January 5th meeting makes the first part of their claim challenging to accept.   Thus the need for Susan Rice to cover for it.

Here’s the full memo in context (including the redacted paragraph):

A day or two prior to this meeting DNI James Clapper briefed President Obama on the nature of the call between Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak and Michael Flynn.

James Clapper received raw “intelligence cuts” about the call from FBI Director James Comey and used them to brief President Obama.

It gets very sticky for the Obama white house to claim they didn’t know about, nor direct, an FBI investigation of Michael Flynn given the fact they were briefed on the intercepted phone communications conveyed by the FBI, via Clapper, to President Obama.

If the FBI wasn’t investigating Flynn, then why were they intercepting his calls?

Understandably President Obama and NSA Susan Rice would be worried about being attached to a potentially very unlawful investigation of the incoming administration and NSA Michael Flynn; hence the ‘stay behind’ meeting.

As a result of prior briefing material President Obama knew the FBI was monitoring and intercepting Flynn’s communication. The aspect of Obama questioning Comey about sharing sensitive information from Flynn; and Comey’s response; points to Obama/Rice knowledge of an FBI operation against Flynn.   An FBI operation against Flynn (and Trump) that Susan Rice knows she needs to specifically claim she and Obama did not know about.

From a hindsight perspective it gets very sticky for Obama/Rice to deny knowledge with that 1/5/17 meeting content in the fray. That’s the purpose of the Jan 20th CYA memo to file.  Think about it:

Question:  Ms Rice how can you claim to have no knowledge of an FBI investigation when the FBI was providing the White House FBI with intercepts of Flynn communication?

Are you saying the FBI intercepts were not authorized by President Obama?

Rice’s CYA memo is attempting to say exactly that.  She’s pinning FBI Director James Comey as “rogue.”

Without the memo FBI Director James Comey could claim President Obama and Susan Rice were well aware of the FBI’s Flynn operation.  With the memo Obama/Rice position themselves as having no idea until Comey started talking…

That’s the purpose for the memo; Obama & Rice protecting themselves from Comey if things go sideways.

To further illustrate this intent, it’s worth remembering the letter from Susan Rice’s lawyer, Kathryn Ruemmler to the Senate:

Note the second to last paragraph, it’s all about denying knowledge of FBI operations, writ large, against the Trump campaign or incoming administration.

When James Clapper walked directly into the White House with “intelligence cuts” specifically from the FBI to share with President Obama, it’s likely the legal team around Obama -specifically including Kathryn Reummler- went bananas.

James Clapper was always a doofus, but usefully so.  However, in this context doofus Clapper -with his FBI cuts in hand- just infected the White House with direct knowledge of an ongoing FBI investigation of the incoming administration.  In that briefing Clapper just walked over their carefully assembled plausible deniability like an ox in the oval. D’oh.

The ‘pull aside’ meeting immediately thereafter, January 5th, was Obama and Susan Rice cleaning up the mess and reassembling their plausible deniability.

The January 20th Susan Rice memo-to-file was supportive material for that intention.

L-R: Kathryn Ruemmler, President Obama, Lisa Monaco, Susan Rice

.

Lastly, it does not go unnoticed the purpose for the original redaction in the Susan Rice memo.  The DOJ/FBI and intelligence administrators were trying to keep James Comey protected; and maintain the offensive effort toward the Trump administration.

Imagine if that memo had been released in 2017 or 2018?… the sunlight would have been unbearable for a multitude of ongoing narratives.  Mueller could never have attempted to prosecute Flynn in 2017 against the backdrop of a known FBI investigation to target and frame Michael Flynn.This entry was posted in 1st Amendment, Big Government, Big Stupid Government, Cold Anger, Conspiracy ?, Decepticons, Deep State, Donald Trump, FBI, media bias, Notorious Liars, President Trump, Professional Idiots, propaganda, Spygate, Spying, Susan Rice, THE BIG UGLY, Typical Prog Behavior, Uncategorized, White House Coverup.

The number of republican senators not running for reelection just gained another name today. Senators Richard Burr (NC), Ron Johnson (WI), Pat Toomey (PA), and Rob Portman (OH) previously stated they were not going to seek reelection; now Senator Richard Shelby (AL) makes the same announcement.

They know the American electorate can see both wings of the UniParty vulture now.

WASHINGTON DC – Sen. Richard Shelby (R-Ala.) said on Monday that he would not run for reelection in 2022.

“Today I announce that I will not seek a seventh term in the United State Senate in 2022. For everything, there is a season,” Shelby said in a statement.

“Although I plan to retire, I am not leaving today. I have two good years remaining to continue my work in Washington. I have the vision and the energy to give it my all,” the 86-year-old senator added.  (read more)

In the 2022 Senate races there are 34 seats up for grabs.  14 are held by Democrats and 20 are held by tenuous Republicans.  [Breakdown Here] Due to vulnerability, their lack of support amid the republican base, and their insufferable 2020 behavior outing them as DeceptiCons it is almost guaranteed the GOP will lose seats in the 2022 mid-term election.

Things amid the DeceptiCon caucus are getting interesting.  With five GOP senators having announced they’re not running (Burr, Johnson, Toomey, Portman, Shelby) there’s essentially zero chance of the GOP retaking control of the Senate in 2022.  [20 R seats up & only 14 D seats that are in solid D strongholds] it is far more likely the Democrats will gain seats, so keep this in mind…. 

…When we think about forming a third party, the “you will split the vote” crew always peddles their vote split narrative.  However, the GOP doesn’t have a chance in hell to win 2022 given what the base of the Republicans think about these senate DeceptiCons now.

There has never been a better time for a New Party to launch and capture three or four seats from the retiring GOPe crew.  It would be great to see true MAGA representatives that can caucus with Republicans but hold ground on America First principles.

Oh, and someone needs to primary Lisa Murkowski again.

Jen Psaki is a career political hack. She worked as deputy press secretary in the Obama administration. Once Trump was elected she spewed propaganda on CNN.

Now that China Joe has been installed through election fraud, Psaki is back. She seems a perfect fit for the Biden regime. She seems unprepared, evasive, and untruthful. She has all the charm of a soulless and unblinking political shark that she is. Biden’s mouthpiece is now famous for her ‘I’ll circle back to you on that’ line, which has gone viral.

Psaki is a talking doll. Others pull her string and she then babbles proscribed and scripted lies. Jen makes a good face for the leftist media. She’s a socialist sycophant relaying talking points to other socialist sycophants. There is no journalism involved. It’s just one big circle jerk.

Orange woman bad!

Socrates had forecast a declining trend for the Democrats and their majority is so razor-thin, they have a serious problem. This is why Biden is circumventing Congress altogether and using executive orders to implement Schwab’s Great Rest. In the House, a judge has ruled that the NY-22 congressional election is finished handing the victory to the Republicans with a vote margin of just 109 votes.

After months of counts and recounts and recounts of the recount, Republican Claudia Tenney has won the seat beating Democrat Anthony Brindisi. Tenney held a thin 109 vote lead, and Oswego County Supreme Court Judge Scott DelConte dismissed a motion by Brindisi to delay certification yet again. The judge ordered the vote to be certified therefore handing Republicans another House seat victory.

The Democrats have only a 50.4% majority and in the Senate, it is 50/50 requiring the Vice President to beat the tie. The Democrats are in the midst of a shrinking majority in the Democrat House reducing their advantage to just five seats. The good news is that if Speaker Pelosi wants to pass crazy progressive bills, she is going to need absolutely every Democrat on board and count on some renegade Republican support.

As I have been pointing out, the Democrats are more vulnerable to breaking apart by 2022 splintering into several factions where the Republicans would split taking 70% for a possible new party based upon the anti-establishment movement that has been around for decades and only expands. There are conservative Democrats in districts that are far more conservative and would be thrown out of office if they dared to follow the AOC insanity.  Our models showed that the 2021 election Congress would be the peak for the Democrats, although their margin has declined sharply.

The 2022 election will be a Panic Cycle and a major Directional Change hits for the new Congress there in 2023. Note that there is yet another Panic Cycle in 2024. To show Panic Cycles in politics is extremely rare. This has not taken place since the Great Depression. As the Democrats shred the Constitution to put Trump on trial, they should be mindful that when the Republicans get back in power, they could retroactively impeach Pelosi, Schumer, and Biden when he was Vice President under Obama. This is totally absurd that Congress could impeach someone who is not in the office. If Trump really committed a crime, then that is something for the courts to take on – not Congress

Wyoming GOP representative Liz Cheney, a Decepticon of the highest tier, appears smugly  on Fox News for an interview.  As much as the interview itself is insufferable in its disconnect many people need to watch and accept.

Cheney ramps-up the attacks against President Trump and his supporters.  Keep in mind that Trump holds more than 85% approval within the party, yet Cheney and the Decepticons just don’t care; they hate anyone who does not facilitate their power demand.  They hate you.

They hate us.

Additionally, two-thirds of the republican house conference voted to keep Cheney in her position.  There is no way to reconcile the disconnect between what the elected GOP are doing against the will of the majority unless you accept they just don’t care.  Trumpet!

Chris Wallace, a gatekeeper for all things swamp, was gleeful to provide Cheney with the opportunity to attack Trump supporters.  The interview is telling on many fronts, but how many republicans will finally accept their status?  The GOP doesn’t care what you think about them… they are the second wing of the UniParty vulture.

Stop being a battered conservative and start accepting that two-thirds of the republican party do not want you in the room.  Remind yourself of this example when the insufferable apologists try to tell you a third party is not needed.  The republican party must be destroyed or we will continue the cycle of abuse.

Here’s the full interview:

Bring on the battle…. The GOPe must be destroyed !

Florida’s MAGA Governor Ron DeSantis appears on Fox News to discuss how his state is dealing with the COVID-19 issues and keeping the economy open.  Visitors to Florida are shocked at how open the state is…. outside of the hospitality industry there are few signs that COVID is having any impact.

Florida home prices and real estate are/is skyrocketing in value as millions of people leave states that are heavily influenced by totalitarian government. The building industry in Florida is higher than ever before to meet continued and increasing demand.

Additionally, DeSantis discusses his recent confrontation with Big Tech censorship and manipulation.  The Florida legislature are finalizing laws that will allow residents to sue social media platforms for unfounded, unethical and ideological targeting.

2024:

DeSantis, closest to MAGA

Noem, MAGA-lite with a twist of Koch

Haley, pure-breed Decepticon establishment

Cruz, controlled and opportunistic opposition.

In this important interview former Senior White House Economic and Trade Advisor, Peter Navarro, discusses how the Bill Barr DOJ prepared advanced review for an incoming Joe Biden administration and supported the creation of a blitz of executive orders.

However, stand back a few more feet from the picture that Navarro describes and you start to see something CTH has discussed for several years (people didn’t want to admit).  It is the DOJ as an institution that is working against the interests of the United States.  The institution is filled with Lawfare allies and aligned ideological interests.  First, WATCH:

.

Take away the bigger big-picture.  The people inside the Department of Justice, most of them installed during the Obama-Holder-Lynch administration, are entrenched ideologues.  It did not matter who the Attorney General was.  The gears inside the machine were disconnected from the person who held the controls.

Why is this acceptance important in historic reference and moving forward?

First, the Mueller investigation was created within this system, by these exact operators.  This reconciled perspective helps people to understand just what the purpose of the Mueller/Weissmann probe was all about.  The institution of the DOJ was protecting itself from any element that would remove the corrupt intent.  Mueller was an extension of the attack against President Trump that came from two years prior.

Second, all of the appointed leadership within that corrupt DOJ system, including the FBI, are only in place to maintain defenses against the American people.  This is why we see the two-tiers of justice.  This is why targets, any targets of the DOJ and FBI, are all identified on one side of the political spectrum.  The U.S. Department of Justice is weaponized to defend corruption, and attack any entity that is a risk to the state controls.

Ultimately we saw this in the July 12, 2018, DOJ memo to the FISA court.  Despite the known lies, fabrications and flat-out false information within the FISA application used against Carter Page, the DOJ was telling the FISA court the June 29, 2017, third renewal still retained valid predication.  Everything about that memo was a lie.  The institution of the DOJ was covering for Robert Mueller’s need.

The United States Dept of Justice and the U.S. FBI are political entities with the expressed and open intent to target their political opposition.  When we as a people start to accept that reality, only then can we begin to decide what to do about it.

Because this reality has actual empirical evidence to support it, the same FBI and DOJ are working overtime to take down targets quickly.  Thus the need for the fabrications and false narratives around the January 6, 2021, DC protest.

Yes, we are in a “police state.”

…. conduct yourselves accordingly.

It’s February 2nd and that must mean that it’s Ground Hog Day. Again.

Punxsutawney Joe has seen his shadow, or should we say shadows. That’s because he has been a very shadowy president thus far and it means his ‘dark winter’ will go on and on and repeat until we all finally wake up and save the Republic.

Biden’s promises to end capital gains would be devastating to investment. Adding Elizabeth Warren’s Wealth Tax, which California is pushing, would probably kill it altogether. They could tax everyone who had Gamestop based on the high even if they never sold. His claims are never really addressed by the mainstream press. His claims that 150 million Americans have died since 2007 because of gun violence on the streets is just shocking when the total population of the country is 328 million. That means 50% of the population should be dead. That certainly would be a dream come true for Bill Gates! Biden seems to love being a dictator for he is just doing executive orders bypassing Congress all together thereby avoiding any debate whatsoever. It is curious that Boris Johnson is doing the very same thing in Britain – avoiding any debate of vote.

During Biden’s Weekly Address, he stated that “the idea that we think we can keep businesses open and moving and thriving without dealing with this pandemic, it’s just a nonstarter.” He added: “I’ve been saying a long time, the idea that we think we can keep businesses open and moving and thriving without dealing with this pandemic, it’s just a nonstarter. We’re putting together a plan that provides for emergency relief to people who are in desperate need now. Everything from mortgage payments, to unemployment insurance, to rental subsidies, to food security for children. It provides for small and medium-sized businesses to be able to open.

Yet Biden states you will continue to have to wear masks and social distancing even if vaccinated. As the Financial Post in Canada reported, if there is a return to normal only after everyone is vaccinated, it will take more than 10 years to accomplish that just in Canada. So is the Great Reset really a conspiracy, or the real agenda that the media is also hiding from the public. We should change the name of the New York Times, Washington Post, and CNN for starters to Pravada in honor of the system they are supporting – end of free speech and thought.
