After the DOJ/FBI advanced their defensive efforts last weekend via the New York Times and NBC, now the CIA/ODNI faction step forth with the same intents and purposes.
CIA defending journalist Natasha Bertrand has been participating in the multi-year PR effort which helped frame the CIA/ODNI talking points against President Trump, and she is deployed again in the latest effort within Politico. The timing here is predictable.
(Via Politico) President Donald Trump’s obsession with former CIA director John Brennan could be on a collision course with an ongoing Justice Department probe as Attorney General Bill Barr takes a more hands-on approach to examining the intelligence community’s actions in 2016.
[…] Durham’s report is likely to land well after the results of an inquiry by the Justice Department’s Inspector General, who is examining the FBI’s applications to a secret court in 2016 and 2017 to obtain surveillance warrants on a Trump campaign aide.
[…] “Is the IG report going to say we made mistakes? Yes,” said one of the former officials. “But it won’t say we did so for some nefarious purpose. So the report will be a dry hole for Trump and his supporters. Which is why [Barr and Durham] have now gone to this other theory, positing that the CIA was engaged in some rogue operation to overthrow Trump and therefore feeding the FBI bullshit,” he said. “It’s complete nonsense.”
“Haven’t you heard?” said another former FBI official, sarcastically. “Brennan was a puppet-master and we were just his puppets.”
Unfortunately, Ms. Bertrand gets too far over her defensive skis when she scribes defense and obfuscation that is laughable to anyone who followed the activity of CIA Director John Brennan when she writes:
[…] Asked for comment, White House deputy press Secretary Hogan Gidley said: “John Brennan lied before Congress when he got caught spying on American citizens and lied about having Russian collusion evidence that never existed. The only way I’ve ever heard anyone in the White House mention him is as a punchline.”
It’s not clear what Gidley was referring to—Brennan has not been accused of lying to Congress. (read full article)
Obviously Ms. Bertrand is counting on people not knowing that John Brennan was caught lying about his instructions to CIA operatives to spy on the networks of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence. Brennan later apologized to the Senate for that effort; but hey, what’s a little forgetfulness amid professional narrative engineering.
Additionally, in directly related matters; while remembering the ‘gossip-blower’ stems from the same CIA institution headed by Brennan while a member of the National Security Council; and while remembering the Washington Post is the primary outlet for the PR efforts of the CIA resistance du jour; the mysterious “white house insider” who penned an op-ed in the New York Times last year has now signed an anonymous book deal expand on the anti-Trump intelligence community narrative.
Stripping away the old way of doing business leaves all of DC and Corruptocracy with no means of conducting the affairs of the government, procuring legitimate contracts which are awarded to the most comprehensive bid at the lowest cost would throw a monkey wrench in many procurement programs, supply chains they would not know how to adjust.
Problem is AI will catch the nonsense in little to no time.

The author of the “A warning” didn’t write the book for monetary gain according to the WAPO. I’m sure he was given adequate compensation from Hillary,Obama,Soros,and or a surrogate. The actual motive is obviously to help ensure the ousting of the POTUS. The left was stopped at the brink of it’s take over of the USA under a Hillary dictatorship. The hand of God intervened and put an imperfect man with patriotic motives in the white house. I thank God for his intervention. He forgave King David for his murder and adultery to anoint him as King of Israel. No man is perfect yet the left would rather have a dictator than a man committed to preserving the USA as it was intended by the founders. That is beyond sad. It is an outrage on steroids.

the 6x “rogues’ gallery” captures that unique moment in the owner/operator’s brainwork that triggers “subtext” facial “tells”… of all these treacherous mooks, she –ms page — (at least in the mug shot…) looks like the “light bulb” just clicked on….. and she realizes the full extent of her perfidious conduct…. put the squeeze play on this one… ’till she pops like a zit ..
the rest are zealots & ideologues that have to be played against facts&evidence-depositions gained through subject interviews/interrogations…. start with the weak link… go up from there…

Every now and then I like to remind everyone that, after three years none of these crooks involved in Russiagate have been indicted, convicted or sentenced as a result of the investigations by the DOJ/Durham/Huber/Horowitz or Lindsey Graham. NOT ONE PERSON!!
