Paul Pelosi Arrested for Driving Under the Influence


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on May 29, 2022 | Sundance

According to multiple media reports, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s husband of 59 years, Paul Pelosi, was arrested for driving under the influence last night.  It’s the driving part that’s no ok.  The need for Paul Pelosi to be under the influence of something numbing, is, well, somewhat understandable.

(VIA MSM) – Paul Pelosi, House Speaker Rep. Nancy Pelosi’s husband, has been arrested after allegedly driving under the influence late Saturday night. Paul Pelosi was arrested in Napa County, California at 11:44 p.m. on Saturday night, and was charged with driving with a blood-alcohol level of .08 or higher as well as driving under the influence of alcohol.

The arrest was first reported by TMZ. He was booked into jail at 04:13 a.m. on Sunday, and released at 7:26 a.m. according to Napa County records. Those records indicate his bail was set at $5,000.

Paul Pelosi, 82, has been married to Nancy since 1963. A spokesperson for Rep. Pelosi (D-Calif.) said that she would not be commenting on the “private” matter.

“The Speaker will not be commenting on this private matter which occurred while she was on the East Coast,” the spokesperson said. (link)

Sunday Talks, Sparks Fly During FOX Interview Between Senator Mo Brooks and Regime Stenographer Sandra Smith – Theme, “Something Must Be Done”

Alabama Senator Mo Brooks appeared on Fox News Sunday for his trip through the media spin cycle set on “something must be done” mode.”

The interview gets more and more contentious as the conversation takes a turn toward election integrity, and Sandra Smith is bound by contractual obligation with the corporate instructions to dispatch any claims of 2020 election fraud.  WATCH:

We all know what lies at the end of the emotionally driven “something must be done” narrative.  The most obvious example is the Patriot Act.  We are reminded every time we are forced to take off our shoes, undergo a pat-down and complete the required full body scan to board an airplane.   The lesser obvious data collection and electronic surveillance methods not withstanding….

Sunday Talks, CBS Margaret Brennan Begins Interview with False Claim Framework About Ulvalde School Shooting


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on May 29, 2022 

The Uvalde school shooting is the lead on every Sunday news talk show. We know the corporate media apparatus is filled with “journalists” who narrate events from a false premise, but still, they need to be called out when the baseline for conversation is important.

Arkansas Governor Asa Hutchinson appears on CBS with dramatic narrative engineer, Margaret Brennan, to discuss the Ulvalde, Texas school shooting and the aftermath.  In the very first sentence of her lead-in context, Brennan makes three remarkably false assertions to frame the basis of a manipulated interview. [Transcript Here]

Notice the lead, “There was an armed officer assigned to the elementary school in Uvalde [FALSE]. And then you had a police force response [FALSE], where they did not confront the shooter who was carrying an AR-15 [FALSE].” There was no armed officer present, there was no police force response, and the shooter was not carrying an AR-15.  From there the dramatic acting of Margaret Breann begins.

Notice Brennan later shifts to “AR-15 styled” weapon after making the false initial claim.  Then uses the term “semi-automatic”, as if that is some description of a more deadly firearm, rather than describing a singular bullet from each pull of the trigger.  …”But then there’s this AR-15 style weaponsemi automatic not that good for hunting. The bullets travel three times the speed of sound, they literally blow bodies apart. […] Why not raise the minimum age of purchase to 21 from 18?

Deeper in the Coverup, Early 2018 Andrew Weissmann Instructed Everyone on Special Counsel Team to Wipe Their Cell Phones


Posted originally on the conservative house on May 29, 2022 | Sundance 

In the aftermath of the late summer 2017 Page/Strzok cell phone text messages, which started to identify the DOJ and FBI targeting operation against Donald Trump, the DOJ Office of the Inspector General (OIG) decided he better look at the communications inside the rest of the Mueller-Weissmann team.  Early in 2018 IG Horowitz asked for all of the special counsel cell phones.

Andrew Weissmann knew there would be trouble, the special counsel operation was at a critical juncture {GO DEEP} so he instructed the team to wipe them clean, quickly.

Eventually records were released in 2020 [SEE HERE] showing how the Weissmann/Mueller special counsel team “accidentally” wiped 15 iPhones of all data early in 2018 after the phones were requested by the OIG office for review.

Mueller’s lead investigator Andrew Weissmann said he “accidentally” wiped two phones himself; through a lengthy process of entering the wrong passcode several times over a period of three hours; removing data to show his activity during the special counsel.

Weissmann claimed to have entered the wrong password (takes ten attempts) and that erased all the data.  Greg Andre, a former deputy assistant attorney general in the Justice Department’s criminal division, made the same claim.

Wiping your phone to hide damaging information only works if the other phone you are communicating with wipes the same data.  Guess what happened?  Yup, exactly that, all of the cell phones connected to the key participants in the Muller operation deleted their phone content rendering a review impossible.

James Quarles III, who worked with Mueller in private practice at the Washington office of Wilmer-Hale, claimed his iPhone magically erased itself.

Before joining the special counsel team, Mr. Rush Atkinson worked under Andrew Weissmann in the DOJ’s criminal fraud section where he specialized in financial fraud.  Atkinson claims he too entered the wrong password ten times and accidentally erased all the data.

At least twelve other people assigned to the special counsel investigation had similar “phone wiped/erased” issues which blocked the inspector general from his review.

One “accidental” method used repeatedly was to place the iPhone in airplane mode and then lock it without providing the password.

Retrieval attempts then erased all data and returned to factory settings after unsuccessful passcode entries.

As we have previously mentioned the two-year Weissmann/Mueller special counsel, May 2017 through April 2019, was a continuum of the corrupt DOJ and FBI efforts that originated prior to the 2016 election.  Most of the internal FBI and DOJ officials just transferred from the Clinton email investigation, into the Crossfire Hurricane investigation, and then into the Weissmann/Mueller special counsel investigation.

The corrupt activity within the special counsel tenure was actually worse than the corrupt activity that preceded it.  In early 2018 the Special Counsel operation was at the apex. The special counsel team had just discovered the investigation of Senate Intelligence Committee Security Director James Wolfe, from the FBI investigative file turned over to them for review before the criminal grand jury was seated. {Go Deep}

DC U.S. Attorney Jessie Liu, in charge of the criminal case against Wolfe, had just notified journalist Ali Watkins (New York Times) of the search warrant that was used to look at her communications with senate security officer.  There was a confluence of events swirling around the Weissmann team that needed to be handled very carefully if their cover-up operation was to continue.

There were also concerns in the early spring of 2018 the special counsel could be shut down if all of these issues were not handled carefully.  Thankfully, the special counsel team had full control over Main Justice and Deputy AG Rod Rosenstein was giving them free rein to preserve the institutions under the auspices of the Trump-Russia investigation.

It was in the early spring of 2018 when a great deal of activity was needed in order to tamp-down and cover-up the DOJ and FBI conduct.   The Office of the Inspector General asking to review their communications was problematic.  So, the special counsel team scrubbed all the phone information, reset their priorities and got back on mission.  To give you an idea how difficult it is to wipe an iPhone, watch this video.

This was not done “accidentally”:

.

The gateway to expose the corrupt DOJ and FBI officials does not lie at the end of the path where you find Hillary Clinton, Perkins Coie, Fusion-GPS or any of their cohorts and corrupt political/media allies.  Following that trail leads to obfuscation, ‘mistakes were made’ justification and institutional preservation.

Instead, the way to expose the corrupt DOJ and FBI officials, lies at the end of the path walked by the Mueller-Weissmann special counsel.

Follow that Weissmann trail and you walk right in the front door of Main Justice and the central Washington DC FBI office.

Support for Liz Cheney Collapses in Wyoming as President Trump Comes to Rally for Her Primary Opponent


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on May 28, 2022 | Sundance

A recent republican poll in the state of Wyoming [DATA HERE] shows Representative Liz Cheney trailing her primary Trump-endorsed opponent, Harriet Hageman, by 30 points.  Liz Cheney has 26% republican support, and her challenger has 56%.   The Wyoming primary is August 26, 2022, this year (general election November 8).

President Trump is going to be holding a rally later today in Casper, Wyoming, to assist in defeating the horrible DeceptiCon Liz Cheney.  However, do not get overconfident looking at Cheney’s terrible poll numbers, Wyoming is an open primary state and Democrat voters can vote for Liz Cheney on the republican ticket.  There is only one congressional district in Wyoming and there are considerable pockets of Moonbats in/around the fancy rich places like Jackson Hole.

(Politico) – […] The race for Wyoming’s lone congressional district is one where the Club for Growth and Trump, who have quickly turned from allies to foils, are aligned, though the Club has not formally endorsed Hageman. The poll, shared first with POLITICO, was conducted this week by WPA Intelligence, a Republican firm, ahead of Friday’s candidate filing deadline.

Trump has taken intense interest in the race because Cheney has been such a prominent critic of his attempts to subvert the 2020 election results. After her impeachment vote, she became one of just two Republicans, along with Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.), to sit on the commission investigating the Jan. 6 Capitol riots that Speaker Nancy Pelosi created.

Kinzinger chose to retire rather than remain a stop on Trump’s 2022 midterm revenge campaign. Cheney, however, has said she plans to seek reelection — even if her odds look tough. And Trump will travel to Casper, Wyo. on Saturday to rally for Hageman, a trial lawyer who placed third in the GOP primary for governor in 2018.

The polling reinforces another piece of data the Club for Growth released a year ago, which showed that 52 percent of Wyoming GOP primary voters were planning to vote against Cheney regardless of who challenges her. (read more)

Because Wyoming only has one House congressional district (CD), the congressional seat is a statewide race. This allows activist Democrats to activate their political operation in order to protect their ally, Liz Cheney.

The open primary states are the states the RNC wing of the UniParty has targeted to turn into Democrat States.  It is a long-term strategy within the republican wing of the club system to turn control of the state offices to democrats in order to protect the power structures in Washington DC.

UniParty State Governors and Decepticon Senators benefit from the open primary format as it allows Democrats to select the weakest republican candidate for the general election contests.   The most recent example of the strategy in action is in Georgia.  Thousands of democrats took republican ballots so they could control the November 2022 ticket challenges.  In November Democrats will likely take the governors’ office with Stacey Abrams and a very organized black voting bloc.

Ohio and Texas are two key target states for the professional republican club to turn the keys over to democrats.  They are making a lot of progress there.

Tucker Carlson Discusses the Elizabeth Warren Factor Inside the Biden Economy, Ultimately This was the Price of Her Endorsement in 2020


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on May 27, 2022 | Sundance 

Tucker Carlson accurately puts the spotlight on former presidential candidate, Senator Elizabeth Warren, as he outlines the destructive nature of the Joe Biden economic and energy policies.  Warren is an academic. Everything Warren has created and advocated comes from theory and academics.  Senator Warren has never built anything, created anything, or worked on a system to contribute anything.  Elizabeth Warren is 100% an academic and activist wonk, just like Barack Obama.

Tucker is right to focus on Warren because as we have outlined previously, control over energy policy and economic influence was the price candidate Warren demanded in 2020 for going along with the plan to install Joe Biden.  Her endorsement came with the demand that she be allowed to take her energy and economic theories and put them into actual economic policy for the Biden administration.  Tucker’s the first person I have seen to connect the two.  WATCH:

.

In order to keep control over the literal application of her theory, Warren had demands for the businesses and companies that operate within the economy.  That’s why she is desperate to build mechanisms inside government policy where approvals and/or disapprovals take place.   Tucker got this monologue correct.

Jury Deliberating in Michael Sussmann Trial, Judge Cooper Proactively Announces Will Not Read the Verdict Until Tuesday


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on May 27, 2022 | Sundance 

Closing arguments have wrapped up in the trial of former Clinton campaign lawyer Michael Sussmann. The jury is now deliberating.  In an unusual twist, trial Judge Christopher Cooper said if a verdict arrives today, he will withhold reading the outcome until Tuesday due to prior commitments.

Despite the evidence that Michael Sussmann lied to FBI officials about the reason for him bringing the Clinton campaign manufactured false information about a Trump-Russia connection via Alfa-Bank in Trump Tower, it is highly unlikely Sussmann will be found guilty.  The reason is simply that regardless of whether he told FBI officials the material came from Hillary Clinton’s campaign; the FBI knew Sussmann was an operative of Hillary Clinton’s campaign.  It’s an issue of materiality.

Top leadership at the FBI concealed Sussmann as the Alfa-Bank source from the FBI investigators who were given the information.  Whether Sussmann lied about bringing the false evidence on behalf of the Clinton campaign was immaterial to how the evidence was handled.  Again, as CTH has said for the past two years, the background of Durham investigating the ‘outsiders’ is filled with pretending.  Even Andrew McCarthy, a defender of the institutions, outlined the FBI playing pretend as a “bad look.”

The New York Post has a solid article outlining all the pretending – “What we learned at the trial this week is that, notwithstanding Baker’s insistence that he believed Sussmann’s cover story, FBI headquarters officials fully realized they were acting on highly political information and took steps to conceal that fact.

First, a decision was made to treat Sussmann, the source, as a confidential informant. This was not done to protect Sussmann’s security. It was done to protect the FBI’s reputation. The informant pretext enabled headquarters to conceal Sussmann’s identity from the line agents in Chicago who were tasked to assess the Alfa-Bank information. 

As good investigators, the agents wanted to know the source of the information so they could assess the purveyor’s motive and thus the data’s likely reliability. They were frustrated and annoyed that headquarters would not identify the source and allow him to be interviewed. 

If they had been told Sussmann was behind the data, they would instantly have known that the information was political. As it was, they quickly concluded that the information was nonsense, that it did not come close to establishing a Trump-Kremlin communications channel, and that it probably came from someone with an anti-Trump agenda. 

Second, the headquarters effort to cover up Sussmann’s identity reached such absurd heights that the FBI itself made false statements in documenting the investigation. In the “electronic communication” by which the bureau opens cases, agents claimed that the information had come not from Sussmann, not even from a confidential source, but from … wait for it … the US Department of Justice. This was so ridiculous that, embarrassingly, none of the agents involved could explain how that happened. 

Third, the FBI’s brass was so hot to nail Trump for supposedly being a clandestine agent of Russia that the line agents’ rejection of the evidence made no difference. “People on the 7th floor to include the Director are fired up about this server,” said headquarters agent Joe Pientka in a message to one of the Chicago agents. 

The 7th floor houses the suite of top executive offices at FBI headquarters, including that of Director Comey. When the Chicago cyber investigators found no basis for criminal charges, they were told to keep the case open as a counterintelligence matter. “Priestap says it’s not an option — we must do it,” admonished Pientka, referring to the bureau’s top counterintelligence official.   (read more)

The NY Post reaches the same conclusion CTH highlighted years ago.  “In fact, if Sussmann is acquitted, that will have a lot more to do with the bureau’s machinations than Sussmann’s innocence,” they write.

The DOJ, FBI and everyone associated with the information knew they were receiving opposition research from the Clinton campaign.  However, the FBI had to pretend they didn’t know in order to use the false information to start another Trump investigation.

The media were then told by the Clinton campaign that the FBI had the Alfa-Bank material under investigation, that FBI involvement gave the illusion of credibility. The media then asked the FBI if they did have an investigation of the material and wrote their articles accordingly.

The media articles carried additional weight because the suspicions existing connected to actual material within an FBI investigation gave the suspicions more credibility.

This is the exact same reason why several months later, March 2017, the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence (SSCI), Vice-Chairman Mark Warner, told the SSCI security director James Wolfe to leak Carter Page FISA application to journalist Ali Watkins.  Same approach as Sussmann.

In 2016 Michael Sussmann wanted media articles verifying Donald Trump as an investigative target of the FBI to help Hillary Clinton.

In 2017 Mark Warner wanted media articles verifying Donald Trump’s campaign officials as investigative targets of the FBI to get a special counsel appointed.

In both examples the primary motive was to use the media to get an outcome.

Michael Sussmann was the delivery agent to the FBI so that the Perkins Coie law firm to lean on their media allies to spread the Trump-Russia collusion conspiracy.   Sussmann had a pre-existing relationship with FBI Counsel Jim Baker that would be useful for that purpose.  Hence, the origin of the contact that was argued in court.

It was the media angle that was more important to the Clinton campaign; the FBI angle was only to bolster the credibility of the Trump-Russia accusation, and the FBI were more than willing to use the material and try to help Hillary Clinton.

The entire media system knew along with everyone else inside and outside of government, that their efforts to create the Trump-Russia conspiracy and collusion narrative were based on fraudulent pretext manufactured by the Clinton campaign.

They all knew it.

They all acted collaboratively, and they all engaged purposefully.

The same can be said for the Mueller/Weissmann investigation that followed.  There was not a single person in Washington DC who did not know the Mueller special counsel was appointed entirely to hide all of the preceding government corruption.  However, as typical within the last decade of DC corruption, everyone keeps pretending.

From the claim of men having babies, to denying the entire apparatus of the U.S. government weaponized to target a political opponent, we are a nation pretending.

Authorities Investigating Retired Federal Agent Having Contact with Buffalo Shooter Before Attack


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on May 27, 2022 | Sundance

In a disturbing twist to the Buffalo supermarket shooting that left ten people dead and three more wounded, a report is now surfacing that at least one retired federal agent was in contact with the shooter during his planning and was sent a message of intent 30 minutes before the attack began.

New York – Law enforcement officers are investigating whether a retired federal agent had about 30 minutes advance notice of a white supremacist’s plans to murder Black people at a Buffalo supermarket, two law enforcement officials told The Buffalo News.

Authorities believe the former agent – believed to be from Texas – was one of at least six individuals who regularly communicated with accused gunman Payton Gendron in an online chat room where racist hatred was discussed, the two officials said.

The two law enforcement sources with direct knowledge of the investigation stated these individuals were invited by Gendron to read about his mass shooting plans and the target location about 30 minutes before Gendron killed 10 people at Tops Markets on Jefferson Avenue on May 14. (read more)

Having already announced that the shooting is considered a ‘racist attack‘ by a defined ‘white supremacist’, if this story is accurate, it appears the FBI [*ahem*] is looking at the group the shooter was in contact with to see if they could be charged as accomplices in the killing.
