Tucker Carlson hit the nail on the head in his opening monologue tonight. This is the first time the DOJ National Security Division (DOJ-NSD) has been spotlighted as the center of Main Justice’s political targeting operation. One small but important point Tucker got wrong was the timeline of the DOJ-NSD being weaponized for domestic political targeting operations. Tucker puts the shift as recent; however, the shift actually took place when Obama took office with Eric Holder as AG.
Some CTH readers may remember how the DOJ-NSD refused to accept inspector general oversight {pdf here} as led by AG Eric Holder and DAG Sally Yates. More readers will remember the DOJ-NSD is the epicenter of FISA abuses. It is the DOJ-NSD where Main Justice can operate in the shadows, because they use the shield of national security; a key strategy of the Fourth Branch of government.
The DOJ-NSD is the targeting center of Main Justice where folks like John Carlin, Mary McCord, Bruce Ohr, Andrew Weissmann, David Laufmann, George Toscas (and later Dana Boente) were operating against the incoming Trump administration and later the Trump presidency. The DOJ-NSD is where selective Foreign Agent Registration Act (FARA) violations are used against political enemies like Michael Flynn, while people like the Podesta brothers are ignored.
The weaponization of the United Stated Department of Justice originated in the conference rooms of the DOJ-NSD, and soon thereafter the alignment with the intelligence apparatus to create the Fourth Branch of Government took place. {Go Deep} AG Merrick Garland is just a continuum of the Obama mission to use the DOJ-NSD, that is why Lisa Monaco was installed as the operational command center of the DOJ-NSD and John Carlin was rehired. WATCH:
The link to the Fourth Branch of government below will walk you through the major steps that took place between 2008 to 2021 which created the DOJ targeting operation; the FBI as a federal state police to target opposition; and the complete takeover of the U.S. government by the intelligence apparatus.
Remember Libs…..when the worm turns…..
NO MERCY!
You wanted this…..
See, that’s the problem.
We generally feel that this kind of feces to too vile to do to someone else, so we never act like the libs do.
That’s not a problem. That’s an asset. That’s what makes American Citizen’s morally superior to any 3rd world totalitarian animal on the planet. The moment you adopt their tactics is the moment you become the enemy of humanity no matter what artificial construct of an us and them dialectic you want to play out.
No one wins a war playing by the rules, no one!!!! Vlad the impaler did what he did to try and scare off the muslim invaders . He knew he had to be worse than them, he had to put fear in them. It worked for a while.
Until his own killed him, chopped off his head and sent it to the Sultan.
Name one time when an outnumbered and out gunned insurgency defeated a government force anywhere near as powerful as ours by playing by your rules. And I’m not just talking in military terms either. You want to use the law to defeat them? They make the laws and they have an army of crooked lawyers and judges to do their bidding, not to mention the entire DOJ and FBI. How about the war of information? They have the entire MSM and the social media giants all on their side and they don’t give a damn about your rules or even their own rules.
My old boss has a style and a response I would like to offer …a sort of challenge. Please take no offense (he never did mean it that way either…He was a brilliant motivator)
now that you have given me all the reasons why this can’t be done, please give me five reasons how
IT CAN BE DONE.
He did not become a two star (8 time polar deployed operational wizard) playing nice politics.
He knew how to get people to think “right”…to pull them up and invite them to a different level.
Right now, as we are engaged in Stage 3 revolution, I MUST say it out loud:
yes, it’s terrible and horrible..the odds are against us…they have us surrounded.
and it’s the perfect time to make change because of these facts.
give me five reasons why IT CAN BE DONE.
then go do them.
America..the HOME of the free and the brave.
God Bless America
During the Indian Wars, plenty on our side took scalps. Our ancestors were barbarians too. I don’t believe in some mystical “we live in a time of air conditioners!” force that prevents modern man from behaving as his ancestors behaved.
When it comes down to the primordial instincts, All bets are OFF.
100% correct and the libs know it. Too
Case in point: Big Bill Barr, President Trump’s 2nd attorney general. He was so anxious to restore the reputation of DOJ as apolitical he shrank from purging it of bad actors and holding those who had abused their posts for political reasons accountable.
As a result, the bad apples just hunkered down and waited him out. Barr should have cleansed the temple of justice with fire; instead, he slapped a coat of whitewash over the rot and swept the corruption under the rug.
An opportunity missed. I pray that President Trump returns to the White House in January 2025, this time with a crew of berserkers ready to tear it all down and excise the progressive cancer.
Bag Pipe Billy Barr was a member of the evil clergy. He would not have “cleaned” any temples if he could.
Think he was a big player in the deep state pretending he cared about their reputation
I’ve said here multiple times that we have to play dirty and I keep getting slapped down for it. As if playing by the rules will help you defeat people with the entire US federal government and the media on their side. It’s not possible. Insurgencies are only successful if they’re willing to do anything and everything that has to be done to win.
“When the worm turns”. Nope, but if you’d abuse governmental powers against its own citizens like this illegal and unconstitutional dictatorship is doing right now then you are just like them. In fact it reads to me that you are one of them who thinks they’re justified in doing this to their political enemies because if they didn’t then their political enemies would be doing this to them. That is a perversion of how a Constitutional Republic works! What we have now is a Constitutional Crisis with a lawless dictatorship in power. That’s the problem we all have to work on resolving here.
You are correct, “If the worm turns”, one would hope a houise cleaning woudl remove the evil and not just prolong it until the worm turns again, to favor the democrats.
How many more law abiding American citizens have to be treated as terrorists by their own government before you will proclaim that the worm has turned?
History shows that the only way to stop fascists is by giving them a taste of their own medicine. As Neville Chamberlain discovered too late, no amount of pleading or negotiating will make a difference. A bully will keep bullying until someone punches them in the nose. After they cry uncle and surrender, then you can discuss terms of engagement moving forward. Stopping fascists is a messy business and not for sissies . Americans used to understand this.
Concur with your take here. But – we must be clear on exactly who and how to bring charges of High Treason, against which criminals in our own government, with Constitutionally valid trials, sentencing and rigor. The Nuremburg trials are a useful model, as the Allies’ challenge was to effectively prosecute serious criminals against a legitimate standard of justice and not just be ‘the winners killing the losers’ as typically rationalized by mob rule, a.k.a. consensus (q.v. Karl Marx, The Left, et al). Consider also, why there were armed guards in those proceedings. Later, when the surviving members of ‘the offending Party’ are hunted to extinction, then…Simon Wiesenthal, where are you?
Consider, too, that the Nuremberg trials were preceded by an all-out total war in which millions were killed, including many civilians, with the Allies carpet-bombing entire cities (arguably war crimes). The Allies didn’t let up until after the complete and unconditional surrender of the Axis.
It is inappropriate to draw parallels between the operation of civil society and war between nations.
If you once start down that path, you will trigger a war of each against all—Hobbes’ Jungle.
It’s already a war. Only one side is fighting.
“[Y]ou are one of them who thinks they’re justified in doing this to their political enemies because if they didn’t then their political enemies would be doing this to them.”
To wit: Do unto others as they would do to you, only do it first.
This is morally proper in a tactical sense but no one is justified in initiating violence for political ends simply because he suspects a political enemy desires to hurt him.
Politics is invariably about who hurts whom. The challenge is to let the political process play out until it becomes clear that your life/liberty will be sacrificed on the alter of political expediency.
We are not there yet but you can see it from here.
Did you happen to catch the last election?
What do you mean we’re not there yet? We’ve been there for some time.
These Communist tyrants are the Borg. They do not rest and they will not coexist. They will use any means and weapons at their disposal in their quest to subjugate free people. They will not stop unless and until they are swinging from ropes.
Any action we take at this point is done completely in self defense
Corruption and weaponization at the FBI/DOJ started long before Binbiden and Maobama. Clear back in the J Edgar Hoover days, he used his agency to spy on everyone he thought was a threat and kept ‘secret files’ as he the ‘goods’ on them which kept him in power until his death.
Exactly.
Previously, revelations of this to the public were controlled by a news media that has always been well to the left politically, so we learned of Nixon’s misdeeds via leaks from a high-level leftist at the FBI, related by a leftist newspaper and leftist reporters.
Now, we learn in the alternative media that the rot is to the very core no matter which half of the UniParty is examined. Unfortunately, in a majority idiocracy, in existence by design, it’s far too late to do anything about it.
Not to late to turn it around but possibly too late to do it with the vote
Even if the Republicans win the mid terms, how many of them will actually fight for us? Personally, I have no faith whatsoever in the GOP these days. Sure, there are a small handful of them who will actually do what they say but they only get one vote apiece. They are vastly outnumbered, not only by the crooked politicians on both sides but by the the thousands upon thousands of unelected bureaucrats and lawyers who really run out government these days. They all hate us.
Voices and Votes Will. Not. Fix. This.
That’s right!
These organizations created outside the Constitution were birthed in corruption for devious and unscrupulous purposes.
They have now like a malignant cancer infected the whole governmental and judicial apparatus.
I’m looking for a man on a white horse (and it ain’t Donald Trump) only His coming will stop the advancement of this evil that’s upon us all.
And a lot of those files were delivered to H. Clinton shortly after Director Sesssions was removed and Director Freeh comfirmed.
Knowing all that, as we have re: J. Edgar Hoover for YEARS, I would think it would have been appropriate after his death to burn the illegally-obtained files and shut the place down. Unfortunately, First Lady Hillary Clinton made it her business to get these files before anyone could stop her. Who knows where all that garbage is now, although most of the folks that Hoover could keep in line are long gone at this point. The gubermint could have saved a bunch of money, too, by NOT building that horror of a headquarters on Pennsylvania Ave.
I watched the chip on Whatfinger before I got here this morning. SD analysis about the timeline is indisputable, but of course, we already knew that was the case.
Another point that Tucker misses is his comments on the other media companies. While his derision is warranted, he skips around the most obvious point when it comes to CNN, MSNBC, FOX, and the others. The rabid wingnuts and/or political operatives they have for contributors are just the face of it. They are all propaganda outlets aligned to some degree, and probably subsidized, by the US government entities (IC).
The wingnuts of the USA are small in number and the business model of attacking the majority of the American people based on their wholesome political and societal views doesn’t make sense unless there’s another revenue stream. My bet is that advertising revenue isn’t their primary objective, and I wouldn’t be surprised to find taxpayer money laundered through the advertisement sales ledgers of all of the MSM to pay for the propaganda.
Anything swamp must be viewed with a jaundiced eye.
CNN parent company of AT&T. … NBC, MSNBC is Comcast.
“Keyword Warrants” – Feds Secretly Ordered Google To Identify Anyone Searching Certain Information

Another great link! Thanks for that!
Monopoly capitalism usually morphs into FASCISM which then seeks to destroy Democracy and the “people power” of the Plebs. Occam
The DCistan leftists are terrified that we little wee minded folk will at some point cross the border from Flyoveristan and enter into East Coastistan or Westcoastistan and will upset their fake world where they all earned their fake education where no one ever gets fired or laid off, worries about retirement or bankruptcy or their local industry drying up and leaving town. They have built fences, ahem, borders…around their high church of Holy Government and will do their best to keep us and our kinda thinking from invading their little sovereign village on the Potomac from where they used their fake media and installed their fake president with their fake votes and print their fake money to protect their fake social media world and fake lives. However, we persistent little peasants will not bend to their reality. They are alarmed, actually terrified that our reality becomes theirs. We the Wee People are threatening to dismantle their little fiefdom and they are telling us to stop it, it’s not funny anymore. We need to listen, or else. We are threatening to bring to DC things like job instability, limited funds, boarded up empty building from dried up businesses, friends and family forced to move to where there is more opportunity. Funny, it seems as though they are terrified that their way of life is being threatened by the invasion of people whose language, beliefs, traditions and way of life do not reconcile with theirs. It is high time we bring Detroit to DC. Let the layoffs and shuttering of offices, strip malls, restaurants and shopping centers begin. Let the home devaluations, crime and despair smother them like a nice cold wet dark blanket. Let the plague they have bestowed upon the rest of us grow like a virus and ultimately consume their world as it has ours. Let them feel the weight of their stupidity. They will not survive under their own rules and they know it. Their fake smiles on their fake faces are staring to slip and give way to the real prospect of us bringing a whole bunch of reality across that border with us. Fake will not win and they know it.
“What IS is?” (Bill Clinton)
You could dismantle DC in a heartbeat. All someone (Trump in his 2nd term?) would need to do is start moving agencies out of DC , all across the Country. Need to destroy the hornets nest. How many Government employees would move their families out of the Swamp to the middle of nowhere USA? The less that move, the more you can start downsizing those agencies.
Trump did that to the Department of Agriculture. They recently moved back to DC.
Bureau of land management moved to Colorado. They just moved it back.
Just fire the top 20% of management first.
But how could he do that without the politicians voting on it first?
So very true!
Complicating the plight of these collaborators is the fact that, as regards media personalities, their craven loyalty and self-prostitution is purchased with excessively high, soul-corrupting salaries so as to make these personalities think twice before deciding to leave and write a book, and in general, to be dependable soldiers when most needed, i.e. to mouth ridiculous arguments such as that American parents complaining at school board meetings are domestic terrorists, because they MAY HAVE been sent there by white supremacists.
For the record, the FBI’s white supremacists unit of impersonators is likely the Nation’s last, active vestige of this idiotic philosophy. Shame on the FBI for trying to preserve, and promote it.
A little off topic BUT,
Since our DOJ-NSD wants to declare complaining parents Domestic Terrorists (Patriot Act style) –
Parents may want more infomation on WHY THEY SHOULD CONTINUE TO COMPLAIN:
READ NEA WORLD ORDER @ unlimitedhangout.com
(and BTW, AG’s son-in-law’s ed-tech company “Panorama Ed” is pushing this stuff!!!
“One small but important point Tucker got wrong was the timeline of the DOJ-NSD being weaponized for domestic political targeting operations.”
This seems too easy to investigate to get this wrong, more likely it’s intentional. Wouldn’t want to shine any light near a certain “beloved” ex-president, instead, add to the pile-on against the puppet.
During Obama’s tenure, this was all behind closed doors, now it’s more blatant and in your face, which may be why Tucker said this transformation was recent.
Wasn’t the IRS buying tanks and small arms during Obama? Why doesn’t Tucker mention that?
It seems like Obama tried to repurpose/subvert as many Federal Agencies as he could. The classic example:
Obama Orders NASA to Prioritize Climate Change
NASA was formed in 1958 to address the role of developing technology for space observations. In 1984, Congress revised its mission to include earth science. Now it appears that its climate-oriented mission supersedes its original purpose.
https://spectator.org/obama-orders-nasa-to-prioritize-climate-change/
And now the CDC is going after racism, FBI goes after political candidates, IRS goes after Tea Party… and now NSD going after parents.
You haven’t seen anything yet. Ask real American Patriots, the ones rotting away in solitary confinement. When the American Patriots collective voice should have been raised in a cacophony of protest heard ’round the world, we slunk back into our shadow world to bitch and moan about freedoms lost. We quietly stated they went to far, as the Gestapo surrounded their headquarters with armed troops and barbed wire. As the restrictions and punitive actions, such as Garland’s intensify, I fear that the “voice” will continue to diminish. All the way down to a baaaaa. There will develop a small group of State labeled “enemies of the people”, that will be easily squashed, marginalized and brushed aside. We will see.
And John Carlin was rehired BECAUSE their was no accountability for any of these criminals. WE KNOW. I pray for justice.
Justice will come.
The questions become: do we sit quietly and let this evil happen…or do we rise and extinguish these servants of the devil?
We can’t just rise willy nilly and in 30 different directions though. There has to be solid leadership and a solid plan that the government doesn’t already know about 3 weeks before it is implemented. This is an extremely tall task when it is so hard to communicate without them spying on is.
May I remind everyone of Holder’s statement in 1995, as a US Attorney: “We just have to be repetitive about this. It’s not enough to have a catchy ad on a Monday and then only do it every Monday. We have to do this every day of the week and just really brainwash people into thinking about guns in a vastly different way.”
I prefer peace, but if trouble must come, let it be in my time that my children may know peace.
– Thomas Payne
Once again those opposing individual decision making, get the Vax, don’t get the Vax, mask up, no mask, are actually using the dictatorship tactics against all humanity to stop all Freedom of Choice where ever a comment or person does not fall in line. Or the oppressive rule they are forcing on individuals is now attempting to be used to coverup their China Agenda to weaken all humanity before they feel it safe to impose their view of the future.
However, imho, they have shot themselves in the foot. The Sheeple Crowd have walked right in and signed up for the Jab. If reports of the adverse results continue their numbers will be declining! Just a matter of time. Pray for those that suffer.
The greatest evil is not now done in those sordid “dens of crime” that Dickens loved to paint. It is not done even in concentration camps and labour camps. In those we see its final result. But it is conceived and ordered (moved, seconded, carried, and minuted) in clean, carpeted, warmed, and well-lighted offices, by quiet men with white collars and cut fingernails and smooth-shaven cheeks who do not need to raise their voice. – C.S. Lewis
When I saw that I thought “someone is reading Sundance”
Nice to see he’s catching on. Waiting on a segment next week on the 4th branch of government
I noticed he had the timeline wrong, but was proud that he tackled the subject. He has a big platform. We need his voice.
^^This^^ My liberal family won’t listen to me, but they might listen to him.
And that’s fine, so long as they finally listen…
It will be interesting to see if Tucker is sanctioned for mentioning George Sorros.
Uncle Newt was banned by Fox News for this very same crime.
If Fox News Channel is bad, the Fox News radio briefs and the women who talk, are playing on CNN’s side.
My friend in Montana said that every other commercial on television pushes the vaccines.
Huge sums of money being spent to manipulate those who won’t believe unless it makes the news.
Merrick Garland is a card carrying Communist. The United States Senate approved this man for the Attorney General position. He has no connection to the rule of law in this country. He is helping the Obam… uh, Biden Administration in its efforts to turn our Country over to the Globalist Cabal to do whatever they want with it. Our Constitution be damned. Does anyone believe that any future elections will be fair, given the support these idiots are receiving from the Bureaucratic mess that is our Federal Government and its mouthpieces in our supposed News Media. I am coming around to the belief that the biggest battle is ahead of us, and we had better get ready to believe that things have gone this far off of the rails in the USA.
Yes, I remember… a little belatedly, but I remember. I also remember wondering, from time to time, why our President, the CEO, couldn’t do something about that. Seems like a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity was missed.
The criminals are the FBI and DOJ now only serving the biden crime syndicate.
FBI=Soviet NKVD.
Not only weaponized but if your PRIVATE company has the right pedigree or was created by the CIA venture capital group the United States Department of Justice is happy to do business with you. Deripeska, Crowdstrike Fusion GPS, Joffe at Neustar …Orbis. Our tax dollars.
A Purge is in order….
Remember this ?
Does anybody reading this even know what we are actually up against?For instance, can anybody here name all the federal agencies that make up our federal government? How many people work for each agency? How many of them have their own police/security forces, including their own swat teams? How many lawyers and judges does each agency employ? There are literally millions of people working for our federal government in some capacity and that makes for one monster of an enemy, if they are all aligned against us, which seems to be the case right now. This are scary times we’re living in, my friends.
Well under OZero, most were given surplus military equipment. Lots of ammo, curious where it is stored. ?? Just Wondering.
Just think if the size of the whole thing though. I seriously doubt there is even anybody working in the federal government who knows exactly how big the federal government really is, including FJB. I didn’t even know the VA had it’s own police force until I joined the VA. And I can tell you that they are very prominent in the parking lot, at the front entrance, and inside the building every time I go there.
I haven’t tried it, but I would bet money that even if you googled it, you could not find all the agencies in the federal government because some of them are super secret. It is MASSIVE.
Update…I just did a quick check and there are 38 federal agencies listed just under “A”. 31 letters to go…
What difference does that make. We either stand and fight with all the courage and might we can muster, succeeding or not as free men, or definitely die on our knees as subjects of the realm.
How much do we love our grandchildren?
Every Alphabet entity in DC morphed into political targeting operations during the Obama Admin..
Weaponizing DC against our own citizens.
I’m sure these are the domestic terrorists the school boards want AG Merrick Garland to go after…
*******
School Board SUED For First Amendment Violations!
TPTB *have* to attack people who are working at issues on the Grassroots local levels>>>> because it’s the ONLY place that everyday Americans have POWER.
Remove our Power at the Local Levels and we have NONE.
It makes perfect sense why they are doing this.
nobody likes FJB and nobody is watching FCNN

The CIA is so riddled with communist spies it has become an enemy of America. It has lost all validity and should be closed and the agents executed for treason. I have nothing but contempt for the CIA.
A country is no longer a country when the people lose faith and trust in their institutions. That is what the DemoNazis have accomplished, undermining our belief in everything.
