Against the latest court filings by John Durham, highlighting the tip of the political surveillance iceberg, I have been asked to re-post the deep dive into the totality of the scale of the iceberg. I will add some of the latest information into the outline to show how it all connects.
Barack Obama and Eric Holder did not create a weaponized DOJ and FBI; instead, what they did was take the preexisting system and retool it, so the weapons only targeted one side of the political continuum.
Together they recalibrated the domestic surveillance capabilities, the internal spying systems, so that only their political opposition would be targeted. This point is where many people understandably get confused.
In the era shortly after 9/11, the DC national security apparatus was constructed to preserve continuity of government and simultaneously view all Americans as potential threats. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) were created specifically for this purpose.
What Barack Obama and Eric Holder did with that new construct was refine the internal targeting mechanisms so that only their ideological opposition became the target of the new national security system. This is a very important nuance to understand as you dig deeper into this research outline.
Washington DC created the modern national security apparatus immediately and hurriedly after 9/11/01. DHS came along in 2002 and within the Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act of 2004 the ODNI was formed. When Barack Obama and Eric Holder arrived a few years later, those newly formed institutions were viewed as opportunities to create a very specific national security apparatus that would focus almost exclusively against their political opposition.
The preexisting Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and Dept of Justice (DOJ) were then repurposed to become two of the four pillars of the domestic national security apparatus. However, this new construct would have a targeting mechanism based on political ideology. The DHS, ODNI, DOJ and FBI became the four pillars of this new institution. Atop these pillars is where you will find the Fourth Branch of Government.
We were not sleeping when this happened, we were wide awake. However, we were stunningly distracted by the economic collapse that was taking place in 2006 and 2007 when the engineers behind Obama started to assemble the design. By the time Obama took office in 2009, we sensed something profound was shifting, but we can only see exactly what shifted in the aftermath. The four pillars were put into place, and a new Fourth Branch of Government was quietly created.
As time passed, and the system operators became familiar with their new tools, technology allowed the tentacles of the system to reach out and touch us. That is when we first started to notice that something very disconcerting was happening. Those four pillars are the root of it, and if we take the time to understand how the Fourth Branch originated, questions about this current state of perpetual angst will start to make sense.
Grab a cup of your favorite beverage and take a walk with me as we outline how this was put together. You might find many of the questions about our current state of political affairs beginning to make a lot more sense.
Remember, it is not my intent to outline the entire history of how we got to this place where the intelligence community now acts as the superseding fourth branch of government. Such an effort would be exhausting and likely take our discussion away from understanding the current dynamic.
History provided enough warnings from Dwight D. Eisenhower (military) to John F. Kennedy (CIA), to Richard Nixon (FBI), to all modern versions of warnings and frustrations from HPSCI Devin Nunes and ODNI Ric Grenell. None of those prior reference points are invalid, and all documented outlines of historic reference are likely true and accurate. However, a generational review is not useful, as the reference impacting us ‘right now‘ gets lost.
Instead, we pick up the expansive and weaponized intelligence system as it manifests after 9/11/01, and my goal is to highlight how the modern version of the total intelligence apparatus has now metastasized into a Fourth Branch of Government. It is this superseding branch that now touches and influences every facet of our life.
If we take the modern construct, originating at the speed of technological change, we can also see how the oversight or “check/balance” in our system of government became functionally obsolescent.
After many years of granular research about the intelligence apparatus inside our government, in the summer of 2020 I visited Washington DC to ask specific questions. My goal was to go where the influence agents within government actually operate, and to discover the people deep inside the institutions no one elected, and few people pay attention to.
It was during this process when I discovered how information is purposefully put into containment silos; essentially a formal process to block the flow of information between agencies and between the original branches. While frustrating to discover, the silo effect was important because understanding the communication between networks leads to our ability to reconcile conflict between what we perceive and what’s actually taking place.
After days of research and meetings in DC during 2020; amid a town that was serendipitously shut down due to COVID-19; I found a letter slid under the door of my room in a nearly empty hotel with an introduction of sorts. The subsequent discussions were perhaps the most important. After many hours of specific questions and answers on specific examples, I realized why our nation is in this mess. That is when I discovered the fourth and superseding branch of government, the Intelligence Branch.
I am going to explain how the Intelligence Branch works: (1) to control every other branch of government; (2) how it functions as an entirely independent branch of government with no oversight; (3) how and why it was created to be independent from oversight; (4) what is the current mission of the IC Branch, and most importantly (5) who operates it.
The Intelligence Branch is an independent functioning branch of government, it is no longer a subsidiary set of agencies within the Executive Branch as most would think. To understand the Intelligence Branch, we need to drop the elementary school civics class lessons about three coequal branches of government and replace that outlook with the modern system that created itself.
The Intelligence Branch functions much like the State Dept, through a unique set of public-private partnerships that support it. Big Tech industry collaboration with intelligence operatives is part of that functioning, almost like an NGO. However, the process is much more important than most think. In this problematic perspective of a corrupt system of government, the process is the flaw – not the outcome.
There are people making decisions inside this little known, unregulated and out-of-control branch of government that impact every facet of our lives.
None of the people operating deep inside the Intelligence Branch were elected; and our elected representative House members genuinely do not know how the system works. I assert this position affirmatively because I have talked to House and Senate staffers, including the chiefs of staff for multiple House & Senate committee seats. They are not malicious people; however, they are genuinely clueless of things that happen outside their silo. That is part of the purpose of me explaining it, with examples, in full detail with sunlight.
We begin….
In April of 2016, the FBI launched a counterintelligence operation against presidential candidate Donald Trump. The questioning about that operation is what New York Representative Elise Stefanik cites in March of 2017, approximately 11 months later (First Two Minutes).
Things to note:
♦ Notice how FBI Director James Comey just matter-of-factly explains no one outside the DOJ was informed about the FBI operation. Why? Because that’s just the way things are done. His justification for unilateral operations was “because of the sensitivity of the matter“, totally ignoring any constitutional or regulatory framework for oversight; because, well, quite simply, there isn’t any. The intelligence apparatus inside the DOJ/FBI can, and does, operate based on their own independent determinations of authority.
♦ Notice also how FBI Director Comey shares his perspective that informing the National Security Council (NSC) is the equivalent of notifying the White House. The FBI leadership expressly believe they bear no responsibility to brief the Chief Executive. As long as they tell some unknown, unelected, bureaucratic entity inside the NSC, their unwritten responsibility to inform the top of their institutional silo is complete. If the IC wants to carve out the Oval Office, they simply plant information inside the NSC and, from their perspective, their civic responsibility to follow checks-and-balances is complete. This is an intentional construct.
♦ Notice how Comey obfuscates notification to the Director of National Intelligence (DNI), by avoiding the fact James Clapper was the DNI from outset of the counterintelligence operation throughout the remainder of Obama’s term. When I get deeper into the process, we will understand how the Intelligence Branch has intentionally used the creation of the DNI position (established post 9/11/01) as a method to avoid oversight, not enhance it. Keeping an oblivious doofus like James Clapper in position held strategic value [Doofus Reminder HERE].
That video of James Comey being questioned by Elise Stefanik was the first example given to me by someone who knew the background of everything that was taking place preceding that March 20, 2017, hearing. That FBI reference point is a key to understand how the Intelligence Branch operates with unilateral authority above Congress (legislative branch), above the White House (executive branch), and even above the court system (judicial branch).
Also, watch this short video of James Clapper because it is likely many readers have forgotten, and likely even more readers have never seen it. Watch closely how then White House national security adviser John Brennan is responding in that video. This is before Brennan became CIA Director, this is when Brennan was helping Barack Obama put the pillars into place. WATCH:
[Sidebar: Every time I post this video it gets scrubbed from YouTube (example), so save it if you ever want to see it again.]
The video of James Clapper highlights how the ODNI position (created with good national security intention) ended up becoming the fulcrum for modern weaponization and is now an office manipulated by agencies with a vested interest in retaining power. The Intelligence Branch holds power over the ODNI through their influence and partnership with the body that authorizes the power within it, the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence (SSCI).
Factually, the modern intelligence apparatus uses checks and balances in their favor. The checks create silos of proprietary information, classified information, vaults of information that work around oversight issues. The silos are part of the problem.
Ironically, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) was created in the aftermath of 9/11/01 expressly to eliminate the silos of information which they felt led to a domestic terrorist attack that could have been prevented. The ODNI was created specifically upon the recommendation of the 9/11 commission.
The intent was to create a central hub of intelligence information, inside the Executive Branch, where the CIA, NSA, DoD, DoS, and DIA could deposit their unique intelligence products and a repository would be created so that domestic intelligence operations, like the DOJ and FBI could access them when needed to analyze threats to the U.S. This, they hoped, would ensure the obvious flags missed in the 9/11 attacks would not be missed again.
KEY POINT – Prior to the creation of the ODNI, the terror threats were generally considered ‘external‘ threats that would target us. The intelligence products were threat assessments of entities outside the United States, and how they may present a risk to us in America. However, with the creation of the ODNI the terror threat analysis now looked ‘internally‘. This is so very critical an inflection point it must be emphasized.
Prior to the ODNI the intelligence products from the CIA, NSA, DoD, DoS, DIA, were used to protect us (American citizens) from them (foreign actors). After the ODNI was created those same intelligence products were used to look inward, into U.S. citizens, and as an outcome the tools were used to conduct domestic surveillance of threats to government from ‘inside’ actors. They were protecting government from us.
The terror surveillance radar was no longer pointed offshore. After 9/11 the terror surveillance radar was modified to point inland.
Prior to the ODNI, We The People were what the intelligence system was designed to protect. After the ODNI was created, We The People were now defined as the potential threat. The continuity of government was now what needed to be protected…. FROM US!
The Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI), or Director of National Intelligence (DNI), became the arbiter of information created by institutions that were not previously, constitutionally, allowed to conduct surveillance on U.S. citizens. The NSA data, and all other previously contained tools for terror threat hunting, was now being used by the Dept of Justice and the FBI to look inwardly.
With the constitutional limits around the use of intelligence agencies by the DOJ and FBI now blurred by the elimination of firewalls, the DNI office created a problem. Think of the ODNI as the narrow part of the hourglass. If the DOJ and FBI want to get into the CIA, NSA, DoD, DIA intelligence products they must pass through the ODNI. You’ll see how it was critical to install a person uniquely skilled in being an idiot, James Clapper, into that willfully blind role while intelligence operatives worked around the office to assemble the Intelligence Branch of Government.
Think about what happened at the DOJ and FBI after the ODNI was created. The DOJ began a special unit, the National Security Division (DOJ-NSD) to look secretly at the intelligence material that was previously off-limits for domestic surveillance and targeting. The FBI began counterintelligence operation against American citizens using access to that same intelligence material.
It was only a matter of time before the DOJ-NSD and FBI started to abuse their access to electronic data that was collected exclusively to detect threats from foreign actors. This is where the FISA Court abuses of illegal surveillance of American citizens starts to become exponential.
The DOJ/FBI illegal use of the NSA database is quantified within their own admissions to the FISA Court. Example below shows 85% of all search queries into the database are non-compliant:
♦ The last federal budget that flowed through the traditional budgetary process was signed into law in September of 2007 for fiscal year 2008 by George W. Bush. Every budget since then has been a fragmented process of continuing resolutions and individual spending bills.
Why does this matter? Because many people think defunding the Intelligence Community is a solution; it is not…. at least, not yet. Worse yet, the corrupt divisions deep inside the U.S. intelligence system can now fund themselves from multinational private sector partnerships (banks, corporations and foreign entities).
• When Democrats took over the House of Representatives in January 2007, they took office with a plan. Nancy Pelosi became Speaker, and Democrats controlled the Senate where Harry Reid was Majority Leader. Barack Obama was a junior senator from Illinois.
Pelosi and Reid intentionally did not advance a budget in 2008 (for fiscal year 2009) because their plan included installing Barack Obama (and all that came with him) with an open checkbook made even more lucrative by a worsening financial crisis and a process called baseline budgeting. Baseline budgeting means the prior fiscal year budget is accepted as the starting point for the next year budget. All previous expenditures are baked into the cake within baseline budgeting.
Massive bailouts preceded Obama’s installation due to U.S. economic collapse, and massive bailouts continued after his installation. This is the ‘never let a crisis go to waste’ aspect. TARP (Troubled Asset Recovery Program), auto bailouts (GM), and the massive stimulus spending bill, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA, ie. those shovel ready jobs) were all part of the non budget spending. The federal reserve assisted with Quantitative Easing (QE1 and QE2) as congress passed various Porkulous spending bills further spending and replacing the formal budget process.
Note: There has never been a budget passed in the normal/traditional process since September of 2007.
• While Obama’s radical ‘transformation‘ was triggered across a broad range of government institutions, simultaneously spending on the U.S. military was cut, but spending on the intelligence apparatus expanded. We were all distracted by Obamacare, and the Republican party wanted to keep us that way. However, in the background there was a process of transformation taking place that included very specific action by Eric Holder and targeted effort toward the newest executive agency the ODNI.
The people behind Obama, those same people now behind Joe Biden, knew from years of strategic planning that ‘radical transformation’ would require control over specific elements inside the U.S. government. Eric Holder played a key role in his position as U.S. Attorney General in the DOJ.
AG Holder recruited ideologically aligned political operatives who were aware of the larger institutional objectives.
One of those objectives was weaponizing the DOJ-National Security Division (DOJ-NSD) a division inside the DOJ that had no inspector general oversight. For most people the DOJ-NSD weaponization surfaced with a hindsight awakening of the DOJ-NSD targeting candidate Donald Trump many years later. However, by then the Holder crew had executed almost eight full years of background work.
• The second larger Obama/Holder objective was control over the FBI. Why was that important? Because the FBI does the domestic investigative work on anyone who needs or holds a security clearance. The removal of security clearances could be used as a filter to further build the internal ideological army they were assembling. Additionally, with new power in the ODNI created as a downstream consequence of the Patriot Act, new protocols for U.S. security clearances were easy to justify.
Carefully selecting fellow ideological travelers was facilitated by this filtration within the security clearance process. How does that issue later manifest? Just look around at how politicized every intelligence agency has become, specifically including the FBI.
• At the exact same time this new background security clearance process was ongoing, again everyone distracted by the fight over Obamacare, inside the Department of State (Secretary Hillary Clinton) a political alignment making room for the next phase was being assembled. Names like Samantha Power, Susan Rice and Hillary Clinton were familiar on television while Lisa Monaco worked as a legal liaison between the Obama White House and Clinton State Department.
Through the Dept of State (DoS) the intelligence apparatus began working on their first steps to align Big Tech with a larger domestic institutional objective. Those of you who remember the “Arab Spring”, some say “Islamist Spring”, will remember it was triggered by Barack Obama’s speech in Cairo – his first foreign trip. The State Department worked with grassroots organizers (mostly Muslim Brotherhood) in Egypt, Syria, Bahrain, Qatar and Libya. Obama leaned heavily on the organizational network of Turkish President Recep Erdogan for contacts and support.
Why does this aspect matter to us? Well, you might remember how much effort the Obama administration put into recruiting Facebook and Twitter as resources for the various mideast rebellions the White House and DoS supported. This was the point of modern merge between the U.S. intelligence community and Big Tech social media.
In many ways, the coordinated political outcomes in Libya and Egypt were the beta test for the coordinated domestic political outcomes we saw in the 2020 U.S. presidential election. The U.S. intelligence community working with social media platforms and political operatives.
Overlaying all of that background activity was also a new alignment of the Obama-era intelligence apparatus with ideological federal “contractors“. Where does this contractor activity manifest? In the FISA Court opinion of Rosemary Collyer who cited the “interagency memorandum of understanding”, or MOU.
Hopefully, you can see a small part of how tentacled the system to organize/weaponize the intelligence apparatus was. None of this was accidental, all of this was by design, and the United States Senate was responsible for intentionally allowing most of this to take place.
That’s the 30,000/ft level backdrop history of what was happening as the modern IC was created. Next, we will go into how all these various intelligence networks began working in unison and how they currently control all of the other DC institutions under them; including how they can carve out the President from knowing their activity.
♦ When Barack Obama was installed in January 2009, the Democrats held a 60-seat majority in the U.S. Senate. As the people behind the Obama installation began executing their longer-term plan, the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence was a tool to create the Intelligence Branch; it was not an unintentional series of events.
When Obama was installed, Dianne Feinstein was the Chair of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence (SSCI), and Democrat operative Dan Jones was her lead staffer. Feinstein was completely controlled by those around her including Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid. The CIA was in the process of turning over personnel following the Bush era, and as a result of a massive multi-year narrative of diminished credibility (Iraq WMD), a deep purge was underway. Obama/Holder were in the process of shifting intelligence alignment and the intensely political Democrat Leader Harry Reid was a key participant.
THE TRAP – Many people say that Congress is the solution to eliminating the Fourth and superseding Branch of Government, the Intelligence Branch. This is an exercise in futility because the Legislative Branch, specifically the SSCI, facilitated the creation of the Intelligence Branch. The SSCI cannot put the genie they created back in the bottle without admitting they too are corrupt; and the background story of their corruption is way too intense to be exposed now.
Every member of the SSCI is compromised in some controlling manner. Those Senators who disliked the control over them; specifically disliked because the risk of sunlight was tenuous and, well, possible; have either left completely or stepped down from the committee. None of the SSCI members past or present would ever contemplate saying openly what their tenure involved.
[Note: You might remember when Vice Chairman Mark Warner’s text messages surfaced, there was a controlled Republican SSCI member who came to his defense in February of 2018. It was not accidental that exact Senator later became the chair of the SSCI himself. That Republican Senator is Marco Rubio, now vice-chair since the Senate re-flipped back to the optics of Democrat control in 2021.]
All of President Obama’s 2009 intelligence appointments required confirmation from the Senate. The nominees had to first pass through the Democrat controlled SSCI, and then to a full Senate vote where Democrats held a 60-vote majority. Essentially, Obama got everyone he wanted in place easily. Rahm Emmanuel was Obama’s Chief of Staff, and Valerie Jarrett was Senior Advisor.
Tim Geithner was Treasury Secretary in 2010 when the joint DOJ/FBI and IRS operation to target the Tea Party took place after the midterm “shellacking” caused by the Obamacare backlash.
Mitch McConnell was Minority Leader in the Senate but supported the targeting of the Tea Party as his Senate colleagues were getting primaried by an angry and effective grassroots campaign. McConnell’s friend, Senator Bob Bennett, getting beaten in Utah was the final straw.
Dirty Harry and Mitch McConnell saw the TEA Party through the same prism. The TEA Party took Kennedy’s seat in Massachusetts (Scott Brown); Sharon Angle was about to take out Harry Reid in Nevada; Arlen Spector was taken down in Pennsylvania; Senator Robert Byrd died; Senator Lisa Murkowski lost her primary to Joe Miller in Alaska; McConnell’s nominee Mike Castle lost to Christine O’Donnell in Delaware; Rand Paul won in Kentucky. This is the background. The peasants were revolting…. and visibly angry Mitch McConnell desperately made a deal with the devil to protect himself.
In many ways, the TEA Party movement was/is very similar to the MAGA movement. The difference in 2010 was the absence of a head of the movement, in 2015 Donald Trump became that head figure who benefited from the TEA Party energy. Trump came into office in 2017 with the same congressional opposition as the successful TEA Party candidates in 2011.
Republicans took control of the Senate following the 2014 mid-terms. Republicans took control of the SSCI in January 2015. Senator Richard Burr became chairman of the SSCI, and Dianne Feinstein shifted to Vice-Chair. Dirty Harry Reid left the Senate, and Mitch McConnell took power again.
Republicans were in control of the Senate Intelligence Committee in 2015 when the Intelligence Branch operation against candidate Donald Trump was underway. [Feinstein’s staffer, Dan Jones, left the SSCI so he could act as a liaison and political operative between private-sector efforts (Fusion GPS, Chris Steele) and the SSCI.] The SSCI was a participant in that Fusion-GPS/Chris Steele operation, and as a direct consequence Republicans were inherently tied to the problem with President Trump taking office in January of 2017. Indiana Republican Senator Dan Coats was a member of the SSCI.
Bottom line…. When it came to the intelligence system targeting Donald Trump during the 2015/2016 primary, the GOP was just as much at risk as their Democrat counterparts.
When Trump unexpectedly won the 2016 election, the SSCI was shocked more than most. They knew countermeasures would need to be deployed to protect themselves from any exposure of their intelligence conduct. Dianne Feinstein stepped down, and Senator Mark Warner was elevated to Vice Chairman.
Indiana’s own Mike Pence, now Vice President, recommended fellow Hoosier, SSCI Senator Dan Coats, to become President Trump’s Director of National Intelligence (ODNI). [Apply hindsight here]
• To give an idea of the Intelligence Branch power dynamic, remind yourself how House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI), Chairman Devin Nunes, tried to get access to the DOJ/FBI records of the FISA application used against the Trump campaign via Carter Page.
Remember, Devin Nunes only saw a portion of the FISA trail from his review of a Presidential Daily Brief (PDB) previously given to President Obama. Chairman Nunes had to review the PDB at the White House SCIF due to compartmented intelligence, another example of the silo benefit.
Remember the massive stonewalling and blocking of the DOJ/FBI toward Nunes? Remember the back and forth battle over declassification surrounding the Nunes memo?
Remember, after Nunes went directly to House Speaker Paul Ryan for help (didn’t get any), the DOJ only permitted two members from each party within the HPSCI to review the documents, and only at the DOJ offices of main justice?
Contrast that amount of House Intel Committee railroading and blocking by intelligence operatives in the DOJ, DOJ-NSD and FBI, with the simple request by Senate Intelligence Vice Chairman Mark Warner asking to see the Carter Page FISA application and immediately a copy being delivered to him on March 17th, 2017.
Can you see which intelligence committee is aligned with the deepest part of the deep state?
Oh, how quickly we forget:
The contrast of ideological alignment between the House, Senate and Intelligence Branch is crystal clear when viewed through the prism of cooperation. You can see which legislative committee holds the power and support of the Intelligence Branch. The Senate Intel Committee facilitates the corrupt existence of the IC Branch, so the IC Branch only cooperates with the Senate Intel Committee. It really is that simple.
• The Intelligence Branch carefully selects its own members by controlling how security clearances are investigated and allowed (FBI). The Intelligence Branch also uses compartmentalization of intelligence as a way to keep each agency, and each downstream branch of government (executive, legislative and judicial), at arm’s length as a method to stop anyone from seeing the larger picture of their activity. I call this the “silo effect“, and it is done by design.
I have looked at stunned faces when I presented declassified silo product from one agency to the silo customers of another. You would be astonished at what they don’t know because it is not in their ‘silo’.
Through the advice and consent rules, the Intelligence Branch uses the SSCI to keep out people they consider dangerous to their ongoing operations.
Any appointee to the intelligence community must first pass through the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, before they get a full Senate vote. If the SSCI rejects the candidate, they simply refuse to take up the nomination. The president is then blocked from that appointment.
This is what happened with President Trump over-and-over again.
• Additionally, the Intelligence Branch protects itself, and its facilitating allies through the formal classification process. The Intelligence Branch gets to decide unilaterally what information will be released and what information will be kept secret.
There is no entity outside the Intelligence Branch, and yes that includes the President of the United States, who can supersede the classification authority of the Intelligence Branch. {Go Deep} and {Go Deep} This is something 99.9% of the people on our side get totally and frustratingly wrong.
No one can declassify, or make public, anything the Intelligence Branch will not agree to. Doubt this? Ask Ric Grenell, John Ratcliffe, or even President Trump himself.
• The classification process is determined inside the Intelligence Branch, all by themselves. They get to choose what rank of classification exists on any work-product they create; and they get to decide what the classification status is of any work product that is created by anyone else. The Intelligence Branch has full control over what is considered classified information and what is not. The Intelligence Branch defines what is a “national security interest” and what is not. A great technique for hiding fingerprints of corrupt and illegal activity.
[For familiar reference see the redactions to Lisa Page and Peter Strzok text messages. The Intelligence Branch does all redactions.]
• Similarly, the declassification process is a request by an agency, even a traditionally superior agency like the President of the United States, to the Intelligence Branch asking for them to release the information. The Intelligence Branch again holds full unilateral control. If the head of the CIA refuses to comply with the declassification instruction of the President, what can the president do except fire him/her? {Again, GO DEEP} How does the President replace the non-compliant cabinet member? They have to go through the SSCI confirmation. See the problem?
Yes, there are ways to break up the Intelligence Branch, but they do not start with any congressional effort. As you can see above, the process is the flaw – not the solution. Most conservative pundits have their emphasis on the wrong syllable. Their cornerstone is false.
For their own self-preservation, the Intelligence Branch has been interfering in our elections for years. The way to tear this apart begins with STATE LEVEL election reform that blocks the Legislative Branch from coordinating with the Intelligence Branch.
The extreme federalism approach is critical and also explains why Joe Biden has instructed Attorney General Merrick Garland to use the full power of the DOJ to stop state level election reform efforts. The worry of successful state level election control is also why the Intelligence Branch now needs to support the federal takeover of elections.
Our elections have been usurped by the Intelligence Branch. Start with honest elections and we will see just how much Democrat AND Republican corruption is dependent on manipulated election results. Start at the state level. Start there…. everything else is downstream.
♦ People want examples, reference points for work the Intelligence Branch conducts, specifically how it protects itself.
Here is an example: Julian Assange.
Yes, the history of the U.S. national security apparatus goes back decades; however, the weaponization of that apparatus, the creation of an apex branch of government, the Intelligence Branch, originated –as we currently feel it– under President Barack Obama.
Obama took the foundational tools created by Bill Clinton and George W. Bush and used the intelligence system architecture to create a weapon for use in his fundamental transformation. An alliance of ideologues within government (intel community) and the private sector (big tech and finance) was assembled, and the largest government weapon was created. Think about this every time you take your shoes off at an airport.
After the weapon was assembled and tested (Arab Spring), the Legislative Branch was enjoined under the auspices of a common enemy, Donald J. Trump, an outsider who was a risk to every entity in the institutional construct of Washington DC. Trillions were at stake, and years of affluence and influence were at risk as the unholy alliance was put together.
To understand the risk that Julian Assange represented to U.S. Intelligence Branch interests, it is important to understand just how extensive the operations of the FBI/CIA were in 2016.
It is within the network of foreign and domestic intel operations where Intelligence Branch political tool, FBI Agent Peter Strzok, was working as a bridge between the CIA and FBI counterintelligence operations.
By now, people are familiar with the construct of CIA operations involving Joseph Mifsud, the Maltese professor generally identified as a western intelligence operative who was tasked by the FBI/CIA to run an operation against Trump campaign official George Papadopoulos in both Italy (Rome) and London. {Go Deep}
In a similar fashion, the FBI tasked U.S. intelligence asset Stefan Halper to target another Trump campaign official, Carter Page. Under the auspices of being a Cambridge Professor, Stefan Halper also targeted General Michael Flynn. Additionally, using assistance from a female FBI agent under the false name Azra Turk, Halper also targeted Papadopoulos.
The initial operations to target Flynn, Papadopoulos and Page were all based overseas. This seemingly makes the CIA exploitation of the assets and the targets much easier.
HPSCI Ranking Member Devin Nunes outlined how very specific exculpatory evidence was known to the FBI and yet withheld from the FISA application used against Carter Page that also mentions George Papadopoulos. The FBI also fabricated information in the FISA.
However, there is an aspect to the domestic U.S. operation that also bears the fingerprints of the international intelligence apparatus; only this time, due to the restrictive laws on targets inside the U.S., the CIA aspect is less prominent. This is where FBI Agent Peter Strzok working for both agencies was important.
Remember, it’s clear in the text messages Strzok had a working relationship with what he called their “sister agency”, the CIA. Additionally, former CIA Director John Brennan has admitted Strzok helped write the January 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) which outlines the Russia narrative; and Peter Strzok wrote the July 31st, 2016, “Electronic Communication” that originated FBI operation “Crossfire Hurricane.” Strzok immediately used that EC to travel to London to debrief allied intelligence officials connected to the Australian Ambassador to the U.K, Alexander Downer.
In short, Peter Strzok acted as a bridge between the CIA and the FBI. The perfect type of FBI career agent for the Intelligence Branch and CIA Director John Brennan to utilize.
Fusion GPS founder Glenn Simpson hired CIA Open Source analyst Nellie Ohr toward the end of 2015; at appropriately the same time as “FBI Contractors” were identified exploiting the NSA database and extracting information on a specific set of U.S. persons, the 2015 GOP candidates for President.
It was also Fusion GPS founder Glenn Simpson who was domestically tasked with a Russian lobbyist named Natalia Veselnitskaya. A little reported Russian Deputy Attorney General named Saak Albertovich Karapetyan was working double agents for the CIA and Kremlin. Karapetyan was directing the foreign operations of Natalia Veselnitskaya, and Glenn Simpson was organizing her inside the U.S.
Glenn Simpson managed Veselnitskaya through the 2016 Trump Tower meeting with Donald Trump Jr. However, once the CIA/Fusion-GPS operation using Veselnitskaya started to unravel with public reporting… back in Russia Deputy AG Karapetyan died in a helicopter crash.
Simultaneously timed in late 2015 through mid 2016, there was a domestic FBI operation using a young Russian named Maria Butina tasked to run up against republican presidential candidates. According to Patrick Byrne, Butina’s private sector handler [NOTE: remember, the public-private sector partnership], it was FBI agent Peter Strzok who was giving Patrick Byrne the instructions on where to send Butina. {Go Deep}
All of this context outlines the extent to which the FBI/CIA was openly involved in constructing a political operation that eventually settled upon anyone in candidate Donald Trump’s orbit. The international operations of the Intelligence Branch were directed by the FBI/CIA; and the domestic operations were coordinated by Peter Strzok operating with a foot in both agencies. [Strzok gets CIA service coin]
Recap: ♦Mifsud tasked against Papadopoulos (CIA). ♦Halper tasked against Flynn (CIA), Page (CIA), and Papadopoulos (CIA). ♦Azra Turk, pretending to be a Halper asst, tasked against Papadopoulos (FBI). ♦Veselnitskaya tasked against Donald Trump Jr (CIA, Fusion-GPS). ♦Butina tasked against Donald Trump Jr (FBI). All of these activities were coordinated.
Additionally, Christopher Steele was a British intelligence officer, hired by Fusion GPS to assemble and launder fraudulent intelligence information within his dossier. And we cannot forget Oleg Deripaska, a Russian oligarch, who was recruited by Asst. FBI Director Andrew McCabe to participate in running an operation against the Trump campaign and create the impression of Russian involvement. However, Deripaska refused to participate.
All of this foreign and domestic engagement was directly controlled by collaborating U.S. intelligence agencies from inside the Intelligence Branch. And all of this coordinated activity was intended to give a specific Russia influence/interference impression.
♦ The key point of all that background context is to see how committed the Intelligence Branch was to the constructed narrative of Russia interfering with the 2016 election. The CIA, FBI, and by extension the DOJ and DOJ-NSD, put a hell of a lot of work into it.
We also know that John Durham looked at the construct of the Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA); and talked to CIA analysts who participated in the construct of the January 2017 report that bolstered the false appearance of Russian interference in the 2016 election. This is important because it ties into the next part that involves Julian Assange and Wikileaks.
On April 11th, 2019, the Julian Assange indictment was unsealed in the EDVA. From the indictment we discover it was under seal since March 6th, 2018:
On Tuesday April 15th more investigative material was released. Again, note the dates: Grand Jury, *December of 2017* This means FBI investigation prior to….
The FBI investigation took place prior to December 2017, and it was coordinated through the Eastern District of Virginia (EDVA) where Dana Boente was U.S. Attorney at the time. The grand jury indictment was sealed from March of 2018 until after Mueller completed his investigation, April 2019.
Why the delay?
What was the DOJ waiting for?
Here’s where it gets interesting….
The FBI submission to the Grand Jury in December of 2017 was four months after Congressman Dana Rohrabacher talked to Julian Assange in August of 2017: “Assange told a U.S. congressman … he can prove the leaked Democratic Party documents … did not come from Russia.”
(August 2017, The Hill Via John Solomon) Julian Assange told a U.S. congressman on Tuesday he can prove the leaked Democratic Party documents he published during last year’s election did not come from Russia and promised additional helpful information about the leaks in the near future.
Rep. Dana Rohrabacher, a California Republican who is friendly to Russia and chairs an important House subcommittee on Eurasia policy, became the first American congressman to meet with Assange during a three-hour private gathering at the Ecuadorian Embassy in London, where the WikiLeaks founder has been holed up for years.
Rohrabacher recounted his conversation with Assange to The Hill.
“Our three-hour meeting covered a wide array of issues, including the WikiLeaks exposure of the DNC [Democratic National Committee] emails during last year’s presidential election,” Rohrabacher said, “Julian emphatically stated that the Russians were not involved in the hacking or disclosure of those emails.”
Pressed for more detail on the source of the documents, Rohrabacher said he had information to share privately with President Trump. (read more)
Knowing how much effort the Intelligence Branch put into the false Russia collusion-conspiracy narrative, it would make sense for the FBI to take keen interest after this August 2017 meeting between Rohrabacher and Assange, monitor all activity, and why the FBI would quickly gather specific evidence (related to Wikileaks and Bradley Manning) for a grand jury by December 2017.
Within three months of the EDVA grand jury, the DOJ generated an indictment and sealed it in March 2018.
The DOJ sat on the indictment while the Mueller/Weissmann probe was ongoing.
KEY POINT: The predicate for everything in the Trump-Russia narrative was that Russia hacked the DNC servers. The Robert Mueller special counsel would not have existed except for the justification of the DNC hack by Russia as a predicate reason for the entire “Russian Interference in the 2016 Election” narrative. The Trump-Russia narrative was the coverup tool for the surveillance and spying against Trump.
As soon as the Mueller/Weissmann probe ended, on April 11th, 2019, a planned and coordinated effort between the U.K. and U.S. was executed; Julian Assange was forcibly arrested and removed from the Ecuadorian embassy in London, and the EDVA indictment was unsealed (link).
As a person who has researched this fiasco; including the ridiculously false 2016 Russian hacking/interference narrative: “17 intelligence agencies”, Joint Analysis Report (JAR) needed for Obama’s anti-Russia narrative in December ’16; and then a month later the ridiculously political Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) in January ’17; this timing against Assange is too coincidental.
It doesn’t take a deep researcher to see the aligned Deep State motive to control Julian Assange. The Weissmann/Mueller report was dependent on Russia cybercrimes for justification, and that narrative was contingent on the Russia DNC hack story which Julian Assange disputes.
♦ This is critical. The Weissmann/Mueller report contains claims that Russia hacked the DNC servers as the central element to the Russia interference narrative in the U.S. election. This claim is directly disputed by WikiLeaks and Julian Assange, as outlined during the Dana Rohrabacher interview, and by Julian Assange on-the-record statements.
The predicate for Robert Mueller’s investigation was specifically due to Russian interference in the 2016 election.
The fulcrum for this Russia interference claim is the intelligence community assessment; and the only factual evidence claimed within the ICA is that Russia hacked the DNC servers; a claim only made possible by relying on forensic computer analysis from Crowdstrike, a DNC and FBI contractor.
The CIA holds a self-interest in upholding the Russian hacking claim; the FBI holds an interest in maintaining that claim; the U.S. media hold an interest in maintaining that claim. All of the foreign countries whose intelligence apparatus participated with Brennan and Strzok also have a self-interest in maintaining that Russia hacking and interference narrative.
Julian Assange is the only person with direct knowledge of how Wikileaks gained custody of the DNC emails; and Assange has claimed he has evidence it was not from a hack.
This “Russian hacking” claim was ultimately important to the CIA, FBI, DOJ, ODNI and U.K intelligence apparatus, it forms the corner of their justification. With that level of importance, well, right there is the obvious motive to shut Julian Assange down as soon as intelligence officials knew the Weissmann/Mueller report was going to be public.
…. and that’s exactly what they did. They threw a bag over Assange.
♦ COLLAPSED OVERSIGHT – The modern system to ‘check’ the Executive Branch was the creation of the legislative “Gang of Eight,” a legislative oversight mechanism intended to provide a bridge of oversight between the authority of the intelligence community within the Executive Branch.
The Go8 construct was designed to allow the President authority to carry out intelligence operations and provide the most sensitive notifications to a select group within Congress.
The Go8 oversight is directed to the position, not the person, and consists of: (1) The Speaker of the House; (2) The Minority Leader of the House; (3) The Chair of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, HPSCI; (4) The Ranking Member (minority) of the HPSCI; (5) The Leader of the Senate; (6) The Minority Leader of the Senate; (7) The Chair of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, SSCI; and finally (8) the Vice-Chair of the SSCI.
Example: When the Chief Executive (the President) initiates an intelligence operation on behalf of the United States, the President triggers a “finding memo.” In essence, the instruction to the intel agency or agencies to authorize a covert operation. When that process takes place, the Go8 are the first people notified. Depending on the sensitivity of the operation, sometimes the G08 are notified immediately after the operation is conducted. The notification can be a phone call or an in-person briefing.
Because of the sensitivity of their intelligence information, the Gang of Eight hold security clearances that permit them to receive and review all intelligence operations. The intelligence community are also responsible for briefing the Go8 with the same information they use to brief the President.
~ 2021 Gang of Eight ~
The Go8 design is intended to put intelligence oversight upon both political parties in Congress; it is designed that way by informing the minority leaders of both the House and Senate as well as the ranking minority members of the SSCI and HPSCI. Under the concept, the President cannot conduct an intelligence operation; and the intelligence community cannot carry out intelligence gathering operations without the majority and minority parties knowing about it.
The modern design of this oversight system was done to keep rogue and/or corrupt intelligence operations from happening. However, as we shared in the preview to this entire discussion, the process was usurped during the Obama era. {GO DEEP}
Former FBI Director James Comey openly admitted to Congress on March 20, 2017, that the FBI, FBI Counterintelligence Division, DOJ and DOJ-National Security Division, together with the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) and the CIA, had been conducting independent investigations of Donald Trump for over a year without informing the Go8. Comey justified the lack of informing Go8 oversight by saying, “because of the sensitivity of the matter.”
Stupidly, Congress never pressed James Comey on that issue. The arrogance was astounding, and the acceptance by Congress was infuriating. However, that specific example highlighted just how politically corrupt the system had become. In essence, Team Obama usurped the entire design of congressional oversight…. and Congress just brushed it off.
Keep in mind, Comey did not say the White House was unaware; in fact he said exactly the opposite, he said, “The White House was informed through the National Security Council,” (the NSC). The very direct and specific implication; the unavoidable implication and James Comey admission that everyone just brushed aside, was that President Obama’s National Security Advisor, Susan Rice, was totally informed of the intelligence operation(s) against Donald Trump. After all, the NSC reports to the National Security Advisor.
That is why Susan Rice’s attorney could never allow her to appear before a congressional inquiry.
Look at that highlighted box from Susan Rice’s lawyer, Kathryn Ruemmler, and remember in his March 20, 2017, testimony Comey said, “The White House was informed through the National Security Council,” (the NSC).
FBI Director James Comey was protecting himself against the spygate surveillance of Trump, by leveraging his prior notification to the White House. Comey was signaling, ‘you cant get me for spying on Trump without getting Susan Rice and Barack Obama’, who knew about it.
Does the January 20, 2017, Susan Rice memo look different now?
Again, no one saw the immediate issue. What Comey just described on that March day in 2017 was the total usurpation of the entire reason the Gang of Eight exists; to eliminate the potential for political weaponization of the Intelligence Community by the executive branch.
The Gang of Eight notifications to the majority and minority of the legislative branch are specifically designed to make sure what James Comey admitted to doing was never supposed to happen.
Team Obama carried out a political operation using outside contractors and the intelligence community, and the checks-and-balances in the system were intentionally usurped. This is an indisputable fact, and a point highlighted by John Durham’s court filing:
Worse still, the entire legislative branch of Congress, which specifically includes the Republicans that now controlled the House and Senate, did nothing. They just ignored what was admitted to them. The usurpation was willfully ignored.
The mechanism of the G08 was bypassed without a twitch of condemnation or investigation…. because the common enemy was Donald Trump.
This example highlights the collapse of the system. Obama, the executive branch, collapsed the system by usurping the process; in essence the process became the bigger issue, and the lack of immediate legislative branch reaction became evidence of open acceptance.
The outcomes of the usurpation played out over the next four years, Donald J. Trump was kneecapped and lost his presidency because of it. However, the bigger issue of the collapse still exists.
The downstream consequence of the Legislative Branch accepting the Executive Branch usurpation meant both intelligence committees were compromised. Additionally, the leadership of both the House and Senate were complicit. Think about this carefully. The Legislative Branch allowance of the intelligence usurpation meant the Legislative Branch was now subservient to the Intelligence Branch.
That’s where we are.
Right now.
That’s where we are.
Term-3 Obama is now back in the White House with Joe Biden.
Term-1 and Term-2 Obama usurped the ‘check and balance‘ within the system and weaponized the intelligence apparatus. During Trump’s term that weaponization was covered up by a compliant congress, and not a single member of the oversight called it out. Now, Term-3 Obama steps back in to continue the cover up and continue the weaponization.
Hopefully, you can now see the scale of the problem that surrounds us with specific citation for what has taken place. What I just explained to you above is not conspiracy theory, it is admitted fact that anyone can look upon. Yet….
Have you seen this mentioned anywhere?
Have you seen this called out by anyone in Congress?
Have you seen anyone in media (ally or adversary) call this out? Have you seen any member of the Judicial Branch stand up and say wait, what is taking place is not okay? Have you seen a single candidate for elected office point this out? Have you seen anyone advising a candidate to point this out?
This is our current status. It is not deniable. The truth exists regardless of our comfort.
Not a single person in power will say openly what has taken place. They are scared of the Fourth Branch. The evidence of what has taken place is right there in front of our face. The words, actions and activities of those who participated in this process are not deniable.
There are only two members of the Gang of Eight who have existed in place from January 2007 (the real beginning of Obama’s term, two years before he took office when the Congress flipped).
Only two members of the G08 have been consistently in place from January of 2007 to right now, today. All the others came and went, but two members of the Gang of Eight have been part of that failed and collapsed oversight throughout the past 15 years, Nancy Pelosi and Mitch McConnell.
♦ TECHNOLOGY – On a global scale – the modern intelligence gathering networks are now dependent on data collection to execute their intelligence missions. In the digital age nations have been executing various methods to gather that data. Digital surveillance has replaced other methods of interception. Those surveillance efforts have resulted in a coalescing of regional data networks based on historic multi-national relationships.
We have a recent frame of reference for the “U.S. data collection network” within the NSA. Through the allied process the Five Eyes nations all rely on the NSA surveillance database (U.K, Australia, Canada, New Zealand and U.S.) The NSA database provides the digital baseline for intelligence operations in defense of our allies. The portals into the NSA database are essentially an assembly of allies in like-minded ideological connection to the United States.
Unfortunately, there have been some revelations about the NSA database being used to monitor our allies, like in the example of Germany and surveillance on Angela Merkel’s phone. As long as “the good guys” are operating honorably, allies of the United States can feel confident about having protection from the NSA surveillance of global digital data. We warn our friends if we detect something dangerous etc.
The U.S. has nodes on communication pipelines to intercept and extract data. We have also launched hundreds, perhaps thousands, of satellites to conduct surveillance and gather up data. All of this data is fed into the NSA database where it is monitored (presumably) as a national security mechanism, and in defense of our allies.
However, what about data collection or data networks that are outside the NSA database? What do our enemies do? The NSA database is just one intelligence operation of digital surveillance amid the entire world, and we do not allow access by adversaries we are monitoring. So what do they do? What do our allies do who might not trust the United States due to past inconsistencies, ie. the Middle East?
The answers to those questions highlight other data collection networks. So a brief review of the major players is needed.
♦ CHINA – China operates their own database. They, like the NSA, scoop up data for their system. Like us, China launches satellites and deploys other electronic data collection methods to download into their database. This is why the issues of electronic devices manufactured in China becomes problematic. Part of the Chinese data collection system involves the use of spyware, hacking and extraction.
Issues with Chinese communication company Huawei take on an added dimension when you consider the goal of the Chinese government to conduct surveillance and assemble a network of data to compete with the United States via the NSA. Other Chinese methods of surveillance and data-collection are less subversive, as in the examples of TicTok and WeChat. These are Chinese social media companies that are scraping data just like the NSA scrapes data from Facebook, Twitter and other Silicon Valley tech companies. [ Remember, the Intelligence Branch is a public-private partnership. ]
♦ RUSSIA – It is very likely that Russia operates their own database. We know Russia launches satellites, just like China and the USA, for the same purposes. Russia is also very proficient at hacking into other databases and extracting information to store and utilize in their own network. The difference between the U.S., China and Russia is likely that Russia spends more time on the hacking aspect because they do not generate actual technology systems as rapidly as the U.S. and China.
The most recent database creation is an outcome of an ally having to take action because they cannot rely on the ideology of the United States remaining consistent, as the administrations ping-pong based on ideology.
♦ SAUDI ARABIA – Yes, in 2016 we discovered that Saudi Arabia was now operating their own intelligence data-gathering operation. It would make sense, given the nature of the Middle East and the constant fluctuations in political support from the United States. It is a lesson the allied Arab community and Gulf Cooperation Council learned quickly when President Obama went to Cairo in 2009 and launched the Islamist Spring (Arab Spring) upon them.
I have no doubt the creation of the Saudi intelligence network was specifically because the Obama administration started supporting radical Islamists within the Muslim Brotherhood and threw fuel on the fires of extremism all over the Arab world.
Think about it., What would you do if you were Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Bahrain, Kuwait, the UAE, Jordan, Oman or Yemen and you knew the United States could just trigger an internal uprising of al-Qaeda, ISIS and the political arm of the Muslim Brotherhood to seek your destruction?
Without a doubt, those urgent lessons from 2009, 2010, 2011 triggered the formation of the Arab Intelligence Network as a network to defend itself with consistency. They assembled the network and activated it in 2017 as pictured above.
♦ Israel – Along a similar outlook to the Arab network, no doubt Israel operates an independent data collection system as a method of protecting itself from ever-changing U.S. politics amid a region that is extremely hostile to its very existence. Like the others, Israel launches proprietary satellites, and we can be sure they use covert methods to gather electronic data just like the U.S. and China.
As we have recently seen in the Pegasus story, Israel creates spyware programs that are able to track and monitor cell phone communications of targets. The spyware would not work unless Israel had access to some network where the phone meta-data was actually stored. So yeah, it makes sense for Israel to operate an independent intelligence database.
♦ Summary: As we understand the United States Intelligence Branch of government as the superseding entity that controls the internal politics of our nation, we also must consider that multiple nations have the same issue. There are major intelligence networks around the world beside the NSA “Five-Eyes” database. China, Russia, Saudi Arabia and Israel all operate proprietary databases deploying the same tools and techniques for assembly.
The geopolitical conflict that has always existed has now shifted into a digital battlespace. The Intelligence Agencies from these regions are now operating as the backbone of the government that uses them and has become dependent on them. [<- Reread that].
Once you accept the digital-era intelligence apparatus of China, Russia, Saudi-Arabia, The United States and Israel, are now the primary national security mechanisms for stabilization of government; then you accept the importance of those intelligence operations.
Once you understand how foundational those modern intelligence operations have become for the stability and continuity of those governments…… then you begin to understand just how the United States intelligence community became more important than the government that created it.
♦ Public Private Partnership – The modern Fourth Branch of Government is only possible because of a Public-Private partnership with the intelligence apparatus. You do not have to take my word for it, the partnership is so brazened they have made public admissions.
The biggest names in Big Tech announced in June their partnership with the Five Eyes intelligence network, ultimately controlled by the NSA, to: (1) monitor all activity in their platforms; (2) identify extremist content; (3) look for expressions of Domestic Violent Extremism (DVE); and then, (4) put the content details into a database where the Five Eyes intelligence agencies (U.K., U.S., Australia, Canada, New Zealand) can access it.
Facebook, Twitter, Google and Microsoft are all partnering with the intelligence apparatus. It might be difficult to fathom how openly they admit this, but they do. Look at this sentence in the press release (emphasis mine):
[…] “The Group will use lists from intelligence-sharing group Five Eyes adding URLs and PDFs from more groups, including the Proud Boys, the Three Percenters and neo-Nazis.”
Think about that sentence structure very carefully. They are “adding to” the preexisting list…. admitting the group (aka Big Tech) already have access to the the intelligence-sharing database… and also admitting there is a preexisting list created by the Five Eyes consortium.
Obviously, who and what is defined as “extremist content” will be determined by the Big Tech insiders themselves. This provides a gateway, another plausible deniability aspect, to cover the Intelligence Branch from any oversight.
When the Intelligence Branch within government wants to conduct surveillance and monitor American citizens, they run up against problems due to the Constitution of the United States. They get around those legal limitations by sub-contracting the intelligence gathering, the actual data mining, and allowing outside parties (contractors) to have access to the central database.
The government cannot conduct electronic searches (4th amendment issue) without a warrant; however, private individuals can search and report back as long as they have access. What is being admitted is exactly that preexisting partnership. The difference is that Big Tech will flag the content from within their platforms, and now a secondary database filled with the extracted information will be provided openly for the Intelligence Branch to exploit.
The volume of metadata captured by the NSA has always been a problem because of the filters needed to make the targeting useful. There is a lot of noise in collecting all data that makes the parts you really want to identify more difficult to capture. This new admission puts a new massive filtration system in the metadata that circumvents any privacy protections for individuals.
Previously, the Intelligence Branch worked around the constitutional and unlawful search issue by using resources that were not in the United States. A domestic U.S. agency, working on behalf of the U.S. government, cannot listen on your calls without a warrant. However, if the U.S. agency sub-contracts to say a Canadian group, or foreign ally, the privacy invasion is no longer legally restricted by U.S. law.
What was announced in June 2021 is an alarming admission of a prior relationship along with open intent to define their domestic political opposition as extremists.
July 26 (Reuters) – A counterterrorism organization formed by some of the biggest U.S. tech companies including Facebook (FB.O) and Microsoft (MSFT.O) is significantly expanding the types of extremist content shared between firms in a key database, aiming to crack down on material from white supremacists and far-right militias, the group told Reuters.
Until now, the Global Internet Forum to Counter Terrorism’s (GIFCT) database has focused on videos and images from terrorist groups on a United Nations list and so has largely consisted of content from Islamist extremist organizations such as Islamic State, al Qaeda and the Taliban.
Over the next few months, the group will add attacker manifestos – often shared by sympathizers after white supremacist violence – and other publications and links flagged by U.N. initiative Tech Against Terrorism. It will use lists from intelligence-sharing group Five Eyes, adding URLs and PDFs from more groups, including the Proud Boys, the Three Percenters and neo-Nazis.
The firms, which include Twitter (TWTR.N) and Alphabet Inc’s (GOOGL.O) YouTube, share “hashes,” unique numerical representations of original pieces of content that have been removed from their services. Other platforms use these to identify the same content on their own sites in order to review or remove it. (read more)
The influence of the Intelligence Branch now reaches into our lives, our personal lives. In the decades before 9/11/01 the intelligence apparatus intersected with government, influenced government, and undoubtedly controlled many institutions with it. The legislative oversight function was weak and growing weaker, but it still existed and could have been used to keep the IC in check. However, after the events of 9/11/01, the short-sighted legislative reactions opened the door to allow the surveillance state to weaponize.
After the Patriot Act was triggered, not coincidentally only six weeks after 9/11, a slow and dangerous fuse was lit that ends with the intelligence apparatus being granted a massive amount of power. The problem with assembled power is always what happens when a Machiavellian network takes control over that power and begins the process to weaponize the tools for their own malicious benefit. That is exactly what the installation of Barack Obama was all about.
The Obama network took pre-assembled intelligence weapons we should never have allowed to be created and turned those weapons into tools for his radical and fundamental change. The target was the essential fabric of our nation. Ultimately, this corrupt political process gave power to create the Fourth Branch of Government, the Intelligence Branch. From that perspective the fundamental change was successful.
Last point, they all knew. Every person in the DC system, regardless of where they are located in their containment silos, knew what had taken place. They all knew. No one in DC did not know. This is the very reason why both parties desperately needed to get Andrew Weissmann and Robert Mueller installed.
The 2017 special counsel, under the guise of a Trump-Russia investigation, WAS THE COVER UP plan. The intent of the special counsel was to protect all the inside and outside agents across all branches who has been working together against Trump throughout his candidacy and into his presidency. Not a single elected DC politician did not know this was the intent.
♦ WHAT NOW? There is a way to stop and deconstruct the Intelligence Branch, but it requires some outside-the-box thinking and reliance on the Constitution as a tool to radically change one element within government. In the interim, we must remain focused on the three tiers that we need for success.
• Tier One is “tactical civics” at a local level. Engaged and active citizen participation at the community, city, town and hamlet level of society. This is what might be described as grassroots level, school board level; city council level; county commissioner level.
• Tier Two is “extreme federalism” at a state level. Engaged and active citizen participation through your State House and State Senate representative. This is state level assembly and action demands upon the State House, State Senate and State Governor.
• Tier Three the challenge of “federal offices” on a national level. This is where CTH outlines a singular action that can be taken upstream that allows the first two tiers to retake control over federal offices. This is where we throw the One Ring into the fire of Mordor. {Go Deep}
I am confident that ultimately “We The People” will win. How we can execute the “One Ring” solution is more challenging; in the interim, tactical civics and extreme federalism are doable right now, in this next 2022 election cycle.
.
Just some musings as I went through this:
1) When Crossfire Hurricane began, Harry Reid was still in the Senate and, thereby, in the Gang of 8; as I recall, he was the one that supposedly apprised the remaining seven of that gang, and did so individually.
2) Reid was also, prior to entering politics, on the Capitol Police force. How does a pipsqueak from Searchlight, NV, end up in that role?
3) What, exactly, is an ‘FBI equity’? That sounds like ‘someone’ ‘owned’ by the FBI?
Or, could it be ‘property’ acquired by the ‘intelligence services’ of an operative whom had exploited a minor — and that minor had been given ‘treatment’ that, once emancipated, arrested any memory that they were an ‘FBI equity’ — hence, any further ‘intelligence’ gained from that operative was deemed, (at least until the equity claimed it) property of the FBI?
4). If (3), and that ‘equity’ is not ever ‘officially’ apprised that ‘intelligence’ gathered was accomplished due to ‘sources and methods’ related to the ‘equity’, than permission to declassify could never occur as the equity is not even aware that they are the key to declassifying, correct?
5). We see how chummy Pelosi and McConnell are — how chummy was she with Reid?
6) Knowing what a witch she is, could she have possibly backstabbed Harry at some point, such that when he knew he was leaving the Senate, he wanted to give Trump a leg up on how to get back at her?
7) All this siloing of information — wouldn’t it be wild if all the ‘intelligence’ on that ‘FBI equity’ was so wide and varied that each of the intelligence gathering entities ALL had a silo wrt that same ‘equity’?
Reid was connected if you know what I mean, that’s how he ended up there.
.
Reid just managed to get some ‘very good’ material with which to both exploit and entrap future politicians.
Trading that material for his own political whoredom early on left ‘someone’ or ‘some agency’ in charge of that material.
When that ‘material’ was going to be presented to either of the 2016 candidates in order to exploit them, it is my estimation that Harry had to thwart Hillary going forward as that ‘material’ was garnered as a trade-off to ‘seat the first woman president’ . . .
If Brennan was going to attempt to use the ‘material’ against Trump, Reid had to come clean on that trade-off.
So, they used Hillary’s Russia story instead.
Re #1, John Brennan testified he informed each member of the gang of 8 individually. Somewhere between 10 minutes and 15 minutes into his testimony. I recall this because it struck me why he probably chose this path: he could provide a varying degree of the amount of truth to reveal to each member.
Name the object that didn’t look like the others in the Gof8.
Nunes?
.
I stand corrected.
So when Brennan told Reid about Crossfire Hurricane, the latter ‘advised’ Brennan on how to present the information to the remaining seven is my hypothesis . . .
This is a “National Felon’s League”
My Vato Loco’s tell me this is world wide and my inner PePe tells me so!
This piece looks like a perfect fit with Joe Rogan . Lots of question naturally roll out of this article. Clearly nothing that can be covered in even an hour long news segment. I think Rogan would at least do his own digging after the fact. If a guy like him could be convinced something isn’t adding up he’ll keep looking.
.
I so agree that a one hour news segment is woefully inadequate.
A week’s worth of at least three-hour podcasts may not even do it, but I’d go for it if he would . . .
(Are you his booking agent??)
I think “FBI Equity” could be translated to the older-used “FBI Asset”

Obama is doing a pretty good job of continuing the “fundamental transformation of America” from a shining city on a hill, a beacon of freedom for the word to a 3rd world war torn crime ridden and morally depraved $hithole. And meanwhile the GOP ead the rest of them are lining their pockets and pretending everything is fine.
Obama Campaign Paid $972,000 To Law Firm That Paid Fusion GPS
Former president Barack Obama’s official campaign organization has directed nearly a million dollars to the same law firm that funneled money to Fusion GPS, the firm behind the infamous Steele dossier. Since April of 2016, Obama For America (OFA) has paid over $972,000 to Perkins Coie, records filed with the Federal Election Commission (FEC) show.
I’m sure that has been discovered in the forth coming indictments of Perkins attornies and their company as a whole/ Mark Elias involvement
His involvement in Russia collusion led strait to the election rigging in which he led to have state suddenly change election law policy
Mollie Hemmingway gives some pretty good feedback to Elias on Twitter.
I still can’t believe they got away w/ this. Perfect.
It wasn’t some grand scheme or special event, it was business as usual.
I don’t want to use the word “easy” but it’s magnitudes easier when you own the MSM. The MSM buildup against Nixon and the public sentiment it created was a big reason Nixon resigned. They thought they could get Trump to resign in the first couple weeks after he made it to the inauguration and I believe they hoped they could get him to quit before it.
As time goes on and we learn things little by little, my admiration for Trump has soared.
Reading the Nixon Conspiracy now by Geoff Sandler who was inside the WH at the time.
John Dean sold out Nixon to protect a “Liddy” operation of bugging Watergate going back to the Daniel Elsberg files. Nixon had no idea what was going on and Dean involved Nixon, getting him to make statements and actions to “pay” one of the burglars, Howard Hunt in order to save Dean’s skin and work a “deal” with prosecutors against Nixon.
The point is that this was a test case and the initial playbook aligning the Dims and the media against Nixon or an R both of whom the media hated. Throw in a corrupt Judge, John Sirica who aligned himself with the Dims and media and the pressure was on. Nixon should not have resigned…
Dims thought this was Watergate #2 with our Lion and it failed due to the strength of him.
When you own everyone who has the power to stop it, it’s a piece of cake.

Obama holds Soros’s proxy. The reason Biden’s Cabinet members are frustrated, not being consulted or even called to D.C., is because they are not necessary. They are just figure heads. Kamala is lumped in with the unecessary personally. Even our military Generals are not heeded, Afghanistan is the example.There’s only 1 person calling all the shots, by design.
All while building another mansion in Oahu! He is so confident that he will reign supreme!
President-elect Donald Trump is “being really dumb” by taking on the intelligence community and its assessments on Russia’s cyber activities.
“Let me tell you, you take on the intelligence community, they have six ways from Sunday at getting back at you,” Schumer told MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow. January 2017
So know we understand they rule the country without constitutional authority or accountability. Were they behind the events of 9/11 to get the system set up? What was there role in the Las Vegas massacre?
Were they behind 9/11? It is really hard not to wonder.
Yes, that event enabled all of the oppression we’re dealing with this very day.
Never though I would think that maybe… I watched the black smoke rising North up the Hudson from my office window.. Never Forget!!
Of course they were. Check out September Clues. Good movie,analysis and indictment of media. Also pilots for 9/11 truth.
They didn’t have to setup the 9/11 events. They just had to ignore all the warning signs and then use the crisis to enlarge the surveillance state.
Las Vegas – Yup, like it never happened!!
My initial reaction to this great article? “Yikes.”
Hamburger Hill-esque. As Sundance lays out in this article and previous ones, if we are to regain the Republic there is no quick fix. And it must start from the bottom up–from the local to the state levels, moving up inch by inch, a very tough slog. It is no coincidence that the weaponized DoJ is hyper-focused on, of all things……concerned parents speaking up at local public school board meetings. I mean, such represents an awakening and sudden increased focus and attention of upstanding citizens upon the bottom of the hill, i.e.,
their local levels of governance and less of a futile fixation with D.C., the Federal Level, the top of the hill where the enemy would prefer we all just focus on.
” if we are to regain the Republic there is no quick fix. And it must start from the bottom up”
Yes, and my family is involved supporting a school board candidate right now. IMO- There is very limited time to do so because I can see there is another indoctrinated class of people graduating every year and there has been for many years. I see the attitudes of the younger families moving into the area as others retire and move. I’m hoping something bigger and faster takes place.
Was there not a privy council member / uk that visited US and met with the Ohr’s?
And, regarding the nsa db, it is important to note that israel (an enemy listed #2 on the list of those conducting espionage ops against us in y2009(?) report), was given conditional access to the nsa db by ~ y2007, and full unrestricted access by y2009. I wonder if a keen eye might note a shift in position / behavioral chg in those subsequently targeted. Sadly relevant to the deep state, but also beyond. The damage done by that access and subsequent usage of harvested data gravely concerns me…akin to the irs scandals and the statements that Obama had walked away with significant data resources to be used against Americans.
So why is Durham still alive?
He must be well controlled. Does not want to become arkancidal.
I assume by controlled, you mean protected….can’t help but be reminded of Hillary’s election night rant about. “all hanging by nooses”!!
Obama dislikes Clinton. Durham has been given a green light to target her while covering up for Obama and the 4th Branch?
Who they like/dislike is irrelevant when you have (st)rings attached to control you. Just like siblings in a bad family!
Ask yourself why they don’t actually turn on each other sooner when we know they are corrupt beyond belief? In a dysfunctional family where no one is in control it becomes very chaotic.
Something holds them all together and since we know they are all corrupt cowardly clowns, that something is fear. What do they fear?
They fear us waking up to who they really are. They likely also fear whomever/ whatever has allowed them to rise up to power. We should be asking who pulls their (st)rings because they must have feared them more than they feared us in the past to fo the things they do.
Only some absolute authority could keep their schemes rolling without collapsing sooner under the weight of their own corruption and treachery!
Statute of Limitations ran out.
Have done several searches online and still cannot find any statute of limitations on treason.
The only hiccup I can find is nowhere finding the definition of treason against enemies domestic – so wonder, would betraying one’s nation, to usurp the sitting President aka the Commander in Chief, take that person’s attention away from the business of running the nation, for the deviant purposes of political gain be deemed domestic enemy?
I vote yes, but, that’s just me.
Our country is in new territory, fitting to get this straightened out if we even hope to survive another 200 or so years.
That’s why HRC came back to the US. She no longer has to hide (due to her political crimes). 5 years, statutes of limitations ran out.
If that is true, how is Durham indicting people for crimes during the same time period?
Having control of the EOP DNS is pretty huge. They could pretty easily intercept everything, although standard SSL internet encryption would make it harder to fully exploit. We know Neustar is a heavy Democratic donor and we know Obama had several key Neustar players in his administration. So the question is: Was this “sensitive arrangement” to control the EOP DNS set up specifically for spying? It would be interesting to see the details of that relationship.
It seems its too much to ask to have politicians support their voter base and represent our views…Getem All Out!!! Heh Turtle Neck Ima watchin u 😛
This is not hard. All Republican elected officials should be working for the Republican Party and against Pelosi, not for her. McConnell not questioning the legitimacy of the committee, which has not a single Republican-appointed member, is insane and inexplicable. No reasonable person thinks the January 6 committee is conducting an inquiry but an inquisition.
Republican voters would like their leaders to meet the simple test of not calling them terrorists for engaging in peaceful political protest. They would like their supposed leaders to meet the simple test of not accepting the media’s routine lies about them but, instead, to fight vigorously against those lies. That McConnell failed so dramatically in this regard does not bode well.
Yep, The Turdle is so blatant in this maneuver that even the casual observer has to wonder.
I’ve repeated this a thousand times. This is a zero sum game. All of them are guilty of high treason. If they lose control it is game over, “The One Ring” as Sundance said gets thrown into the fire of Mount Doom. It wasn’t easy for Frodo and Sam. It will not be easy for us at this final hour.
After reading this is it so far fetched to believe that 9/11 was an inside job to achieve this objective?
That is, to create a database for capture and way to spy on the American people?
And Occams Razor me this statement ” If he wins WE ALL hang”?
I still have flashbacks of Hillary threatening Donna Brazille and NBC executives, saying, “If I lose, we all go down, and that Fascist F#ck will have us swinging from nooses! What the f#ck is wrong with you idiots?”
She knew she was losing to Trump and her outburst and attack on Brazille were the basis for her framing Trump.
Occams Razor. They are all guilty enough to hang.
2 questions
Who is all?
What is a hanging offence?
Ghost you also might remember Piglosi saying ” He doesn’t know what we’re gonna hit him with”. This was said before cov19 came to the world.
Bingo! Amazing how that gigantic database was built in Utah during the Osama occupation, and recession where us plebs were suffering in his “New Normal” economy.
When US government uses 3rd party to spy on political opposition…see no reason why it wouldn’t use 3rd party bio lab to create a low yield death pathogen as a deflection maneuver.
Now that 4th branch in collusion with state legislators controls the vote, it become the greatest illusion of our Republic.
Evil all around.
Do you believe this?
“A senior Justice Department official told Fox News on Friday that National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan’s wife, who currently serves as counsel to Attorney General Merrick Garland, is not connected to the Durham investigation into the origins of the Russia investigation. ”
https://www.foxnews.com/politics/jake-sullivan-wife-maggie-goodlander-merrick-garland-durham-investigation-not-connected-doj
DC is a nest of poisonous snakes!
Durham providing just enough to make sure his investigation is not shut down.
DOJ OIG, NSA Head, Biden, Clinton team, all Democrats and some Judges all want this to go away. Talk about swimming upstream.
When these folks prioritize Ukrainian borders, it means they are providing cover/chaos to cover their tracks.
Durham sees the tea leaves and understands he cannot reveal too much while providing enough that he is not shutdown in an election year.
Ordinarily, I would agree with the premise of your assessment, but not this go around. Something is brewing, leftists vs. lefists, and this has the makings of a warning shot to the Clinton 2024 campaign to go away and lay down. Ron Klain and the Red-headed communist are not about to give up power and control to Hillary. They are Obama loyalists, and they hate her.
What Trump does next, and I don’t mean rants on his website, should be entertaining. My guess is he fights fire with fire. He has several avenues of attack at his disposal to castigate them all.
July 2020
Australia announces its own satellite surveillance system.
Launched July 2021.
“The reality is until now Australia has had to rely on overseas providers…”

Why is the background story of the SSCI corruption way too intense to be exposed now?
Many of the same crooks are still there on the SSCI and on the House Intel Committee too.
Why didn’t anyone in Congress ask Comey for proof FBI requested access to DNC?
How did Waaserman-Schulz deny she got the request?
Both under oath??
Right at point of germination and nobody follows up?
When does FBI EVER launch an investigation like this with third party proof only (Crowdstrike)??
And when one mentions Debbie Blabbermouth-Schultz you gotta bring up another whitewash, the Awans.
I have to say the forces working against Durham investigation are multipliers over the forces working against Trump.
Also, Durham knows he is being spied upon.
Durham should suspect that his special counsel office is actively spied on. The Deep State doesn’t need to be the ones doing the spying, though. Instead, they have the Five Eyes consortium to do their intelligence gathering. No tracks.
Even if Durham is a man of integrity, he can’t expand his staff to a sufficient number to handle a scandal like this because he has to stick to a handful of trusted persons. Expand the pool to unknowns, available within DOJ, and you’re ensured you’ll get spies and crooks.
He is spying back, take that to the bank
After reading all of this, I still can’t shake the feeling that the timing of this is a transparent redirect.
And in the May-June timeframe “well, were within six months of a major election. We don’t want to be political”.
Hillary spied on the Trump Campaign, lost the election, and framed Trump using a phony Russia scandal. Not only did Obama know everything, but he also enabled Hillary to move forward. Schummer and McConnell knew, and they employed Mueller to cover it up.
Everything the Democrats and the media told the American people was a lie.
President Trump is the victim of the most impudent, bold, and criminal political conspiracy in American history.
The Rinos were as culpable as the commine dems
And Hillary is still out there shooting her effing mouth off. The megalomania is astounding.
When this mess was ongoing during Trump’s presidency, I said from the beginning that his only option was the nuclear option. It ultimately required having strong and secure people in charge of every department that would carry out the tasking..even if it required the support of the military to secure their safety.
Declassify everything, explain to the American people what had happened, what was happening, and how it was going to be changed moving forward. Name all names, with evidence, in both parties. Burn it all down. Trump would likely had been a one term President to complete the cleansing and restart. It would have been worth it.
Many said the Republic couldn’t survive such a blow. I say it would have saved our Republic. The revelation of the 4th branch evil and those who were users of it could have enraged and energized most Americans to a righteous anger, brought charges within the courts (some of which would have had replaced judges revealed to be on the take), perhaps all under martial law. I don’t know if they threatened his family (I’m sure they did) or worse, but it seems there was an opportunity to take the hard road and destroy this evil before it destroys us. It never happened. So here we are, weaker and more entangled than ever from the massive globalist cabal.
I also advocated for the worst R leadership to be primaries and defeated, even if it required electing the Dim. McConnell was number one target. Of course we never could have predicted how expansive the cheat apparatus was to defeat President Trump, other key seats, and possibly maintain some jobs of their loyal corrupted opposition.
I still have hope, as Sundance proclaims, but it will take a massive overhaul of a behemoth that is nearing a tipping point. The cabal is rapidly subverting and converting institutions and our military into woke zombies. They understand their efforts will be opposed with likely losses in the midterms. That will not deter them from their final charge in 2024, after they elevate Camel into the SCOTUS, their absolute next choice into the open VP slot (either Moochelle of Hildebeast), in advance of their Biden dump in 2023.
“They understand their efforts will be opposed with likely losses in the midterms. That will not deter them from their final charge in 2024…”
You are exactly right. The Deep State is the perpetrator of crimes against Americans.
Don’t worry The McMorons, McConnell and McCarthy can turn their losses into a win.
IC, I believe the Republic COULD survive this kind of blow, and perhaps it is necessary now. However, we have no workable, constitution-following justice department. Military tribunals could work…that would also require patriots instead of the traitors in charge now with Milley and Austin.
535 CONmen and women also KNEW what was going on…and did what?
Trump team opted for bottom up instead of top down. Bottom up is a longer strategy but having the freedom loving people energized is a more lasting solution.
Being an old guy I am not sure I will get to see my fellow freedom loving neighbors regain the moniker of “We the People”.
Well done
That should wake up more people. This is what ratcliffe held back for declass, it went to Durham when he started his SC
In response to the WHAT NOW info….one thing that has not been addressed in this extremely comprehensive and excellent analysis of the situation in which we find ourselves is…..the World Economic Forum. If you take a gander at the ‘global youth leaders’ whose alumni the WEF proudly publishes on the internet, you will see that part of their initiative was to implant people that had gone through WEF training into governments, cabinets, local government, tech, media, education, etc., etc., etc., etc. This ‘infiltration’ did not start yesterday, but has been going on, and growing, for decades. While perhaps the intelligence agencies are not part of the WEF network, presumably they work in tandem with them. Or do they, I wonder as I write this…..How interesting would it be if these two behemoths, the WEF and the Fourth Branch, were actually in opposition, to each other…..
Deep State: And you shall wear a blue tie to signify to us that you are under positive control.
Welcome comrades
It’s all there and we know, with special thanks to Sundance and team for the years long education. And so, as it pertains to Durham, I only have one simple and yet very complex question.
How far will Durham be ALLOWED to go in this investigation?
If biden administration tries to shut it down
I think 200million patriots should be ready to roll
I’m sorry, there are not 200 million patriots. By this time next year it’s more likely all the citizen protests are crushed, with none even started in the USA, mandates of this and that, full propaganda and truth suppression, and the next stages of digital control of the population.
Perhaps we need to cut the cord to the internet services and go old, old history with our own intelligence that cannot be tracked via satellite or any modern tech savvy sinner. We should be setting up courier pigeons in regions to plan and plan some more to undo what they have done. Notes under rocks and in trees? I think one of the reasons the trucker convoy was a surprise is because they used CB radio and avoided the cell phones in their planning. Am I right or wrong? Not as fast but could be doable?
I like a combination of Sundance’s analysis and Larry Schweikart’s, who references Sundance. Sundance’s major point that nothing will be done because of the Mueller/Weissmann coverup and Larry’s that no major players will be touched, no players within government, and that Durham will wrap it up with “That’s all there is to see folks”.
https://larrys.substack.com/p/durhams-big-discovery-isnt-what-you
Thanks for that, Zo. A good little read. The intro of “I hope I’m wrong, I don’t want to be right” is something I repeat daily. The ending about convicting half of the FBI by now should have happened, spot on. Half of Congress too based on the evidence we’ve seen on this page. In between all of that, spot on again. Garland would NEVER allow this to continue if it were going to indict his side.
Hope porn has lost its impact on me. Never confuse activity with results.
I’ve stated this countless times, “no government entity will ever do the dirty work of the people against their own” – As such we must all manage our expectations appropriately.
Have a great day! Cheers!!!
we have actual legal filings, not new stories anymore. Make the distinction and what it really means
That’s wonderful. I’ll still wait for the convictions before I pop the bubbly stuff. Cheers in the interim.
Larry is totally wrong. He’s become a Maga grifter, that is ll
Notice how VERY LITTLE ATTENTION this bombshell has received in the media?
If I didn’t KNOW any better, I would almost think they’re trying to keep this a secret.
it takes them all down. It’s toxic because it leads right to the Election theft of 2020
All of this is a chained RICO case
The media have been and continue to be complicit in all these crimes…the enemedia have been willing participants in the cover-ups and following orders from the deep state. Can any of those in the media be held accountable?
https://t.me/RealGenFlynn/2146
Kudos to Sundance, what an honor, Gen. Flynn knows the spying game.
Wow, Gen Flynn. Awesome shout out to SD!!
Good handle, btw
Excellent work as usual Sundance. I urge you to keep going and take extreme measures to protect yourself.
I have long believed that the whole governmental structure is rotten to the core. Will all this lead to the “One World Government” that is being talked about? Is it the “Great Reset” happening or is this something bigger and those two talking points just shinny objects to distract attention? What is the end game of the ICs?
Of course money is a big factor but I think power and control trump money. These people love to have their boots on your neck. It’s some kind of mental defect when people Pelosi’s age, with millions in ill gotten gains, who could be on the beach, enjoying their last years, keep going and going, lying and lying, manipulating and manipulating.
Grumpy. I believe it is the set-up to what has been told us in Revelation. Revelation, which is the prophecy of Jesus Christ through John, informs us of the coming one world government. There are ten horns of power (not necessarily governments) in my opinion it would be groups such as WEF, Bilderberg, Rothschilds, etc. and one small horn coming into place (possibly Obama-O’biden???) taking power. It suggests high inflation/recession world-wide, lots of death world-wide and other things that seem to be what we are headed for. Prayer for strength is needed as we await 31/2 years of persecution for Christ’s return. JMO.
A) So how is it possible that Durham can find the evidence that PT was truly spied upon but the Mueller Team could not after 2.5 years?
So then we get to the next question……
B) Was Mueller’s Team just a bunch of Keystone Cops or was it something else?
And if it was something else, were any crimes committed?
And then we move to the next question………
C) If it was something else, what role if anything did Barr and Rosenstein play in all of this and what did they know or were they shielded from the truth?
Sundance is 100% correct. How do you do A but ignore B and C?
Read CTH.
Are you kidding? Mueller WAS IN ON IT!!!!
I’m just sayin’… 😏
We all know that every important US Agency and Department have been corrupted. Hell, even after the release of unemployment numbers you can add the Department of Commerce to the list.
The question is how do you solve the problem?
This article is a prime example of why I love the conservative tree house. This is truth in it’s most pure form. I will agree with some of the comments made below. Trump walked into the Whitehouse in 2016 somewhat naive about what was against him. But I think what the deep state has done here is created its own undoing. They’ve given the 45th president a crash course in how to be an effective deconstruction expert. With these indictments some are getting a peek into the total corruption of the government apparatus and the bastardization of our constitution.
William Barr did the only thing he knew he could do that would flush this corruption into the light.
”John Durham”
He knew that with the appointment of Durham that he could count on the fact that Durham would not stop until he got to the bottom of the corruption, no matter how deep it went.
What we are seeing now is the tip of the of the fuse being lit. What is coming in the months ahead is going to shock the American people to the core.
What 45 did in the months proceeding his departure from the Whitehouse was start a ball rolling down a path. That very ball and the path that its on will inevitably lead to the total destruction of Obama administration and everything it has created, and yes the 3rd term of the Obama administration that we are in now. Which will lead rite back to the promise 45 made in his inauguration speech in 2016. The return of the power of government to the people.
Which goes back to what Trump does. He takes a thing, he analyzes it. He commences deconstruction, he plans, he builds back better and he slaps the TRUMP brand on it then enjoys the rewards.
Rest assured patriots, there are patriots in this country that are fighting this unconventional war to restore our country to its once great undeniable status.
God speed patriots.
Sit back. Buckle up and enjoy the ride.
If there was someone in the military who fully understood the problems we face then an errand jdam from a training mission would greatly expedite the recovery from this great illness. Like a surgeons scalpel removing a tumor. I’m allowed to dream right?
So aside from being outraged (even though I’ve known this prior thru CTH)… I wonder how did all of the Americans involved in this go CORRUPT & DARK??? I know trillions of $$$..
But, again, they sell out their country and leave this total destruction behind and even though *they* all have (extended) families, they don’t give a crap??
At my age (geezer), I won’t see the US totally fall, but I leave behind grand & great gr children who may.. Not nearly smart or clever enough to know the answer.. I do know, just from reading here, there are brilliant and informed patriots out there who will (I pray) stop this insanity!!!
The waterboarding of a few 1,000 people on the planet would set free the 7 billion inhabitants of the planet.
I just happen to be reading about Biofilms today, as I study recurring infections. The silos that Sundance describes are like the biofilms that host and protect micro-oganisms and preventing antibiotics and the immune system from doings its work.
sorry for the typos – pre-coffee.
While following Andreas Kalcker’s detox, biofilm exited from my body – very strange, alien-looking. It was a long and arduous process but I didn’t give up.
We must also persevere in ridding the dangerous creatures that dwell in our government.
(Forbidden Health by Andreas Kalcker – the book is banned is the USA, got it sent to me from Spain)
Let’s not overlook Truman and his warnings about the “Intelligence Branch”. Or the communist infiltration of the US government since the 1920’s (Diana West).
So what. Nothing will be done. Sure start at the bottom with school boards and take 20 years . Frankly Carlos Hathcock USMC and his like, would do a better job. But Obama, started the military destruction. So zeig heil , learn Chinese. I would rather see allu Akbar by patriots and really fool them.
I doubt most are capable of absorbing this correctly. When you’ve gone this far off the reservation you simply can not get back to where we were 70+ years ago.
Not can you oversimplify the blame to “Dems” or “Obama”… People who do look stupid IMHO.
Or undo the 100-150 years it took to get here, administrative law is the larger evil.
Federalism, at this point, is simply dead and the corruption is simply systemic.
If voting actually matter they wouldn’t let you do it. Look towards other solutions. I expect to be long dead before most can even scratch the larger understandings of this.
Remember these points as they are pertinent to this whole thing. They are based on established and confirmed information on some certain web-spaces and blogs where the Durham info is discussed weekly by former law enforcement and military people, and they do have an in with JD team. You can seek it out if you want to find it
1) Ignore anything Durham did or what was inferred prior to his SC appointment. The timeline had to restart when Durham started as SC. He could not take his work product with him. Everything was recollection on where to start again.
2) The court filings the past little while are no longer new stories, they are actual court filings meant to go public on what is real and to keep chumming the waters for the ongoing investigations/grand juries.
3) You roll criminal enterprises from the ground up. Not from top down.
4) Garland has no oversight to Durham SC, none. Durham reports to the US people and some Congress oversight only on public info. Congress has no power to do anything or direct anything. Garland cannot end the SC without getting himself indicted.
5). Sussman as little fish started the snowball rolling and he flipped on many higher ups. Elias, Joffee, now expect their indictments based on the filings. Jake Sullivan is next in the crosshairs, then up the food-chain from there.
6) Start demanding Congress now, and when it changes into next year, that Federal Courts should be televised for public consumption, with all the proper protections are adhered to. People need and want to watch these trials. They are that important.
7) The big fish will fall in this coup. (My opinion based on what i have heard for a long time now.
8) Limited Hangout is real, but I think in this case it’s being done by Durham as strategy and to chum the waters (Coupsters)
Speaking of ‘pertinent’……
Do keep in mind that AG Barr inserted a poison pill when he appointed Durham as a SC that will eventually be brought up and invoked in any trial. Bondo Barr knew damn well that “legally” Durham could not be appointed as a SC because Durham was currently employed at the Justice Department.
My bet would be that if Durham goes after anyone deemed important by ‘The Powers That be’, this fact will be brought up and used by the defense counsel.
Need to find the rules on that. He quit that job before began SC, per what i know.
this is from oct 19, 2020 https://www.justice.gov/file/1370931/downloaD
He resigned on 2/26/21 https://www.justice.gov/usao-ct/pr/us-attorney-durham-announces-departure-office
At this time, all of his older work product was abandoned with the DOJ. His special council didn’t start earlier than that per what I understand. Things are left very vague on start date, but his team had to be assembled, get funded and then start investigations and GJ’s over
He started over from scratch no longer as a US Attorney.
This ^^^, the poison pill. Good reminder.
What is Imran Awan’s connection to Jeh Johnson?
Why was he ( Pakistan national ) signaling to Jeh as Troy Gowdy was questioning Jeh.
Troy is another deep stater with a desire for TV fame. Ugh.
this needs to be a book, pronto.
Let me add a point re 9/11 and intel:
The point of the reconstruction of the intel agencies, to thwart another 9/11, should have been spelled out thusly:
“There is a credible Islamist threat that we need to suppress. We need all agencies to collaborate to defeat this global scourge, always cognizant of the Islamists desire to destroy America through ever-changing methods. The next goal for the Islamists would seem to be a nuclear, biological or chemical attack.
Unfortunately, as the Islamists are global and inter-connected through such organizations as mosques, we will need to pay careful attention to institutions which assumedly are created for positive purposes. We apologize in advance for the tactics we take, but as we are in a world war of sorts, asymmetrical though it may be, we will need to engage in actions that we would not wish to take in peace time. However, please be sure that we will adhere to all laws and constitutional rights.
While our concentration will be devoted to the Islamist threat, please be certain that we will also maintain our intel capabilities against all other threats foreign and domestic.”
Unfortunately, due to political correctness, the Bush government was not straight with its people. And that lack of honesty bled into public life, gradually but inexorably. To the point where an FBI head, an AG, a Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and other idiots can say with a straight face that white supremacists are the number one danger to the country. Lunacy begat lunacy, and a whole generation of Americans were gas lit.
Every airport TSA checkpoint should contain the following statement, in bold massive lettering on a billboard:
“This delay, and all other delays inherent in your travel experience, is brought to you by the Islamist terrorists who have and continue to seek to terrorize your lives. The opportunity and other costs associated with this are 100 trillion dollars and counting.”
Yes, a book, and also a movie as most people are alliterate — they can read but don’t.
So the 4th branch of government stopped the election counting and fixed the election results.
That’s the $64,000 question – who ordered the counting stopped?
When a democRAT accuses someone of improper or criminal activity, rest assured that democRAT and/or his associates are doing exactly that.
.
It is no wonder I loathe, despise, and detest the fascist democRAT BASTARD Communist party.
It’s a characteristic of sociopaths to accuse others of doing what they do themselves.
Sundance…
I completely agree with your 3 pillar strategy. As does the Warroom and the Precinct Committeeman Strategy.
I’ve read more on this subject in the past 2+ years in your Awesome Rabbit Hole than than i’ve read from all sources in the previous 10 years combined.
I specifically cut and pasted the portion below because the “screening/hiring/selection” process seems to always come up as the linch pin of “they” get in but “our people” don’t.
Since, I understand the what, how and why they do what they do. I can not believe for two seconds that “we” haven’t been able to infiltrate “their” hiring process. It’s been going on for close to 15 years and I have faith in the fact that we have enough of our own Operatives on the inside that can and will end all of this Treasonous BS!
Otherwise it’s the Controlled Opposition that is keeping us at bay so the Traitors on the inside can finally finish what they started…
Curiosity killed the cat… but, it’s receipts that now keep that cat alive…
The contrast of ideological alignment between the House, Senate and Intelligence Branch is crystal clear when viewed through the prism of cooperation. You can see which legislative committee holds the power and support of the Intelligence Branch. The Senate Intel Committee facilitates the corrupt existence of the IC Branch, so the IC Branch only cooperates with the Senate Intel Committee. It really is that simple.
• The Intelligence Branch carefully selects its own members by controlling how security clearances are investigated and allowed (FBI). The Intelligence Branch also uses compartmentalization of intelligence as a way to keep each agency, and each downstream branch of government (executive, legislative and judicial), at arm’s length as a method to stop anyone from seeing the larger picture of their activity. I call this the “silo effect“, and it is done by design.
I have looked at stunned faces when I presented declassified silo product from one agency to the silo customers of another. You would be astonished at what they don’t know because it is not in their ‘silo’.
Through the advice and consent rules, the Intelligence Branch uses the SSCI to keep out people they consider dangerous to their ongoing operations.
Any appointee to the intelligence community must first pass through the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, before they get a full Senate vote. If the SSCI rejects the candidate, they simply refuse to take up the nomination. The president is then blocked from that appointment.
This is what happened with President Trump over-and-over again.
• Additionally, the Intelligence Branch protects itself, and its facilitating allies through the formal classification process. The Intelligence Branch gets to decide unilaterally what information will be released and what information will be kept secret.
There is no entity outside the Intelligence Branch, and yes that includes the President of the United States, who can supersede the classification authority of the Intelligence Branch. {Go Deep} and {Go Deep} This is something 99.9% of the people on our side get totally and frustratingly wrong.
No one can declassify, or make public, anything the Intelligence Branch will not agree to. Doubt this? Ask Ric Grenell, John Ratcliffe, or even President Trump himself.

The coercion that took place, or perhaps it was complicity, allowing the conspiracy to control elections and ultimately strings of power, are in play today. The Plandemic, has been politicized and leveraged for political advantage and consolidation of power. The truth squelched and the lies repeated over and over. One thing is for certain: there is no government on earth more capable of corruption against its people than the U.S. government.
J. Edgar: Smiling.
Who is really behind this? Got to be more than George Sorrows ….
There are “presidents” who should be in big trouble, but Trump isn’t on that list. The entire government has gone rogue, with very few exceptions. As an altar boy, Eagle Scout, veteran, college graduate and productive member of society, this is enough to make a grown man cry. However, I have no more tears left to shed. Too many dead, and things that cannot be undone.
Well, simplistically if two of the four pillars can be toppled, what it supports can not stand. The question then becomes what two can be dismantled/neutered with the least amount of bureaucratic and elected official interference from the swamp.
