They think you're stupid.

 

Really should read the above article. Most interesting bit (that won't be covered):

Halper was also an unnamed source for allegations about former national security adviser Michael Flynn, according to a Russian-British researcher at Cambridge, Svetlana Lokhova.

 

Lokhova, who studies the history of Russian intelligence, said multiple reporters have told her Halper was behind allegations that she and Flynn had an improper relationship when he visited Cambridge in February 2014. Flynn served at the time as director of the Defense Intelligence Agency.

 

“‘FBI confidential informant’ Halper invented a false story which he passed on to official channels & Press, in full knowledge [sic] his personal attack was going to cause me, an innocent party, enormous harm,” Lokhova wrote on Twitter.

 

She also told The (London) Times that “Halper told reporters he had seen me leaving the dinner with Flynn.”

Reporters from three newspapers, The Washington Post, The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal, approached Lokhova at around the same time in February and March 2016 with allegations related to her interaction with Flynn.

 

According to The Journal, which was the only newspaper to publish a story on the matter, Lokhova sat next to Flynn at the dinner and showed him an erotic postcard that Joseph Stalin sent in 1912. The Journal reported that American authorities had been alerted to Flynn’s interactions with Lokhova and that Flynn had failed to disclose his contact with the researcher to the Defense Intelligence Agency.

 

 

The WSJ writer who wrote that piece? Shane Harris. Dig into Shane and you'll see he's dirty with Fusion GPS money... but that's not the most alarming part. Before I write this up, anyone notice it? What stands out about this section of text...

That's a close second to the date. February 2014... when was Flynn fired? Six weeks later in April of 2014. See it now? 

 

(In the process of writing up an article about this... doing the rough here)

 

2014, Flynn begins bucking the Administration's talking points on ISIS in Syria (and elsewhere). He's identified as a problem, they want to get rid of him but they can't just fire him. He knows where all the bodies are buried after all. They need to fire and discredit him in case he talks. 

 

So they send Flynn to Cambridge to attend a dinner for the Cambridge Security Institute - a small event of less than 20 people organized by Richard Dearlove (MI6) for Christopher Andrew (MI5 and founder of CSI), and worked by Stefan Halper (CIA). Also in attendance was Svetlana Lokhova, a junior member of CSI. She strikes up a conversation with Flynn (and his assistant), they exchange emails. Then Halper runs to the NYT and WSJ and anonymously says he has concerns about Flynn being recruited by the Russians.

 

Six weeks later, Flynn is fired. 

 

In March of 2017, after Flynn resigns as National Security Adviser and the media pile-on begins (the palace coup at this point), stories begin to break about emails exchanged between Flynn and Lokhova. The emails themselves are quoted, by Christopher Andrew in the Guardian, but never released or disclosed publicly. Flynn and Lokhova denied the emails existed. Yet, the story persisted until it became "fact". 

 

Two things JUMP out at me when looking at the Chuck Ross disclosure today (that Halper was the source of the 2014 articles).

 

1) Look at the names. They're the exact same people 44 reached out to use to spy on, and dirty up, Trump team members. Not just the same people, but they're playing the same roles, running the same plays deployed in 2016. 

 

2) The emails are key. It's possible Andrew was making them up entirely, fabricating their contents. But the question that's never asked is how he got them in the first place. He's MI5 - not 6. Here's my bet... he got those emails through Halper who (allegedly/almost confirmed) was one of the redacted names of government contractors with 702 access inside the DOJ-NSD.

 

In other words, the fact this went down in 2014 - using the same people and same playbook we saw in 2016-2017 - is not a coincidence. It's a pattern. It's evidence that this surveillance abuse was systemic and rampant in 44's administration. It wasn't just used to try to tip the presidential election, it was used to pour dirt on the graves of their political enemies even inside its own administration. 

 

I'll have much more to say about this when I get it all organized.

I wonder what people think of what Trey Gowdy said?

 

I wonder if the left loves him now and the right sees him as a turncoat.

Yes to both in the extreme partisan camps. Even some of the centrists on both sides are thinking along those lines (from what I'm reading/hearing). There are some (very bright, great researchers/journalists) who think he's been positioning himself all along to be the blocker. 

 

I don't agree with any of it - but also don't know what to make of it. I have to re-listen to both interviews, not just the sound bytes, but I'll point out two things: 

 

1) Most of the coverage on both sides are leaving out the key fact Gowdy did not see the documents Nunes and Grassley requested. Yes, he went to the classified meeting - but in that meeting they were told they couldn't see the documents. In other words, Gowdy learned nothing new before making these statements. 

 

2) He's playing word games that aren't being properly put into context by the articles/coverage. He clearly frames his conclusion around the FBI doing exactly what Trump asked them to do... but leaves out, and the reporters don't add, that the majority of the events in question happened before Trump was POTUS. 

 

Neither of these observations prove anything about Gowdy's motives, I'm just offering them as things to consider before rushing to judgement either way.

It's just a mess.

 

Will us REAL Americans ever know the God damn truth about what is going on?

 

I really have no idea what else to say.

Yeah, I saw the pattern.  "Wow...they're running the same schemes."

 

But I considered that second place to the whole Stalin-porn thing.

This is something I'm waiting to see, some Democrats stepping forward to expose wrongdoings by the Clintons/Obama, because they MUST have gotten into some conflicts with other Democrats along their career path. There has to be other Democrats that have been !@#$ed over or strong-armed (that are still alive, even).

Conspiracy theory people.   

 

When you meet with russians you should expect to be monitored.  

 

Anyone who has or had a security clearance should know that! 

 

Speaking of conspiracy theories 

 

where is Melania?

What happens when said meetings with Russians are designed and arranged by elements within the IC who are trying to create the illusion of criminality? Are we supposed to just ignore that part? 

 

Or is it okay this time because it was ordered by a democrat? 

 

And if that's true, then you have no problem I assume with the GOP using the FBI and CIA and reaching out to foreign intelligence services like MI6 to arrange the same surveillance operation and entrapment on every democratic candidate running in the midterms and 2020, correct? 

 

Or would that be an issue to you?

Dimwitted Democrats, who can't stand Trump, will ALWAYS believe in this stupid Russian Collusion Delusion because they have nothing else.

 

Trump embarrassed these idiots before the election, Trump REALLY embarrassed them all on Election Night, as he made them all look like fools with their stupid narrative of "Hillary is going to win by a landslide" crap..................... and he is embarrassing them all as the US gains respect on the world stage again and Trump is trying to keep all his promises.

 

The braindead idiots everywhere from the flimsy leftist posters on here to the complete morons in MSM can't stand any of this, so they now hate America and Americans who support Trump and people like me who will respect the office of the Presidency (no matter who is in office, to me anyways)

 

Trump is a very flawed human, just like the rest of us, but people voted for him anyway, cause they grew tired of Obama and did not want Obama 2.0 in Hillary.

 

Democrats hate people like you (I don't know if you are a Trump supporter or simply looking for the truth) and me and that is why they cling to the ridiculous Russian Collusion Delusion.
