Is A Major Real Scandal About To Break Soon?
In the third 2016 presidential debate, then-candidate Trump
refused to say he would definitively accept the results of the election.
In the spin room afterwards, Hillary Clinton declared her shock that a
candidate would express such a thought. Citing the fact America had free
and fair elections, she continued: “Somebody wins and somebody loses. So
what he said tonight is part of his whole effort to blame somebody else for his
campaign.” Who knew at the time she was warning us about herself.
Her assumption was that she would win and Trump would disagree
thus delegitimizing the results. In the final analysis, we know that some
Russian agents tried to sow discord and some of their efforts may have been
with the intention to help Trump. We now sadly know that it was also the
Clinton campaign that worked with Russians through a British intermediary to
compile a phony dossier on Trump. That campaign then turned the dossier
over to the FBI who then used it to spy on the Trump campaign.
We find out that Trump was right after all- the election was
rigged against him. Less than two months after taking office, Trump
tweeted out the infamous message that “Obama had my wires tapped in Trump
Tower…” Whether there was electronic surveillance is besides the fact.
The media rushed in and called the accusation baseless and without
evidence.
Consider how far we have come with this story. We know
things now we did not know when Trump fired off that message. We know
that Trump did not conspire with the Russians and we know that he did not
obstruct justice of the Mueller probe. We know that there was indeed
spying on the Trump campaign, and possibly afterwards. We now know that
Trump won the election fair and square.
What we do not know is why and the who that was behind the whole
Russian collusion hoax. For more than two years we were treated to
stories about the walls closing in on the Kremlin puppet in the White House.
We were told what a threat to democracy Trump was. Most recently,
announcing his entry into the Democratic 2020 sweepstakes, Joe Biden described
it as a fight “for the soul of the country.”
What we are left with is a series of interactions where Trump
associates talked to Russian nationals, or associates of Russian nationals, or
someone who new an associate of a Russian national. There were people who
self-proclaimed their ties to the Kremlin who, we find out, were not what they
advertised themselves to be. There is nothing inherently wrong and
certainly nothing illegal about talking to Russian nationals.
We found out that Attorney general Jeff Sessions was actually a
jerk. The Mueller report determined that his “talks” with Russian
ambassador Sergey Kislyak were “brief, public and non-substantive.” The
media frenzy over those reported meetings directly led to the Sessions recusal
which directly led to the Mueller probe. The Mueller report even calls
that “smoking gun” Trump Tower meeting between Natalia Veselnetskaya and Trump,
Jr. as almost farcical with someone texting others to call and make an excuse
to get out of the meeting.
The whole “Trump directed Cohen to lie to Congress” was
essentially a sub-hoax perpetuated by Buzzfeed. Despite
Cohen’s sensational testimony before Congress in an effort to ingratiate
himself to prosecutors, we found out that even this “bombshell” was nothing.
Taken altogether, what we know is that the entire Russian
collusion story was nothing but a huge hoax foisted upon the American public,
but one we should all be worried about. What has become increasingly
clear is that there was a story developed by a strange incestuous group
involving the media, the Clinton campaign, deep state Obama bureaucrats and the
DNC to derail the Trump administration.
The question now remains when we will see pre-dawn raids on the
homes of those who hatched the plan? Will we see SWAT teams entering the
home of James Comey at 5:30 AM with a CNN van coincidentally standing by?
Will we see FBI agents descending from helicopters into the home of James
Brennan? Clapper? Strozk, Page, or the Ohr residence? How
about Sally Yates, Rod Rosenstein and Comey who used a discredited piece of
opposition research paid for by the Clinton campaign and DNC to obtain a FISA
warrant against Carter Page?
With the Bill Clinton/Monica Lewinsky scandal, at least there
was a stained dress. With Watergate, at least there was a burglary, hush
money and an enemies list. With this hoax, nothing… not even Russia.
The whole Mueller investigation was launched on phony grounds.
So why persist? The two main culprits are Jerrold Nadler
and Adam Schiff who are basically nobodies hailing from districts where a sea
slug with a “D” after its name will win an election. It provides them
with daily press opportunities to feed their worthless egos. Nixon was
accused of going after his political enemies, but what are Schiff and Nadler
doing? Further, they are dupes in the whole affair. By going after
Trump, now that they have lots of egg on their faces, they are playing the “a
good offense is the best defense strategy” game.
They then shift the goal posts in the middle of the game.
The talk now is not of Russian collusion now that their last best hope
let them down in that area. The alleged acts of obstruction, however, are
actions any President could have legally taken or ordered. Even the “go
light on Flynn” accusation against Trump in a conversation with Comey was
resolved. Apparently, according to the Mueller report, the request from
Flynn was that the Russian response to sanctions imposed by the outgoing Obama
administration be “light,” to which Kislyak agreed. This is the stuff of
collusion?
Mueller was stifled. The intelligent among us knew that
there was no collusion and that obstruction was all they could really play.
Mueller talked a tough game in public and brooded in private. This
became apparent especially after the White House gave Mueller unprecedented
access to documents and personnel.
Instead, the real scandal and the real bombshell is yet to be
revealed. And this one has already been set into motion and should become
apparent in the coming months. There is likely more evidence that it was
the Obama administration that embarked on a campaign of surveillance using
private contractors to go after political enemies. There is the pending
Justice Department IG report. The Chief Judge of the FISA court, Rosemary
M. Collyer, has already ruled the FBI broke the law.
According to some reports, there is a hero in all this mess- NSA
Chief Adm. Mike Rogers. It is he who went to the FISA court and informed
them of illegal spying by operatives within the Obama administration. He
worked closely with Collyer over months. Apparently, the FISA court has
already informed Attorney General William Barr who lied to the court to
illegally obtain warrants.
When Obama was elected, he promised to “fundamentally transform
America.” If all this comes to fruition- that the Obama administration
usurped the intelligence apparatus of this country to spy on an opposing
political party- it goes far beyond one election in 2016 and one candidate in
Donald Trump. The weaponization of the IRS against Tea Party Patriots
focusing on intimidation and harassment are a sideshow, but indicative of the
the lengths the Obama administration and the Democrats would go to “transform
America.”
If the Obama administration coopted the FBI and intelligence
community to spy on Trump or an opposition party, it will render Watergate
nothing more than a third-rate burglary. So while the Democrats dither
away and subpoena tax records in a fishing expedition that should have every
American wary, perhaps it is best to harken back to the days of Watergate and
that infamous question of James Baker: “What did Obama know and when did he
know it?”
The Democrats may not like the answer when all is said and done
because although there may be multiple layers of plausible deniability, just
seeing their asses hauled before a Senate committee and watching them squirm,
or seeing Brennan, Clapper and Comey in orange jumpsuits would be sweet
satisfaction for the last two and half years of the true threat to democracy
they represented.
