The Washington Post goes back to the prior narrative surrounding the Mar-a-Lago documents saying, “a document describing a foreign government’s military defenses, including its nuclear capabilities was found by FBI agents who searched former president Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence and private club last month.”…. with Devlin Barrett adding the usual, “according to people familiar with the matter” sourcing.
Keeping in mind the traditional relationship that exists between specific media outlets and their deep state sources, the most obvious source for Devlin Barrett is the DOJ National Security Division (DOJ-NSD), FBI Counterintelligence division, or larger intelligence community (IC). However, what is also obvious from the way the documents are described is a narrative framework to make the innocuous seem looming.
PICTURED: Chairman Kim Jong-Un reads a letter from President Donald J Trump
I would be willing to bet the “document” in question is a letter from North Korean Chairman Kim Jong-Un to President Trump about the status of the DPRK military intent and weapons. You might remember Chairman Kim and President Trump developed a good relationship and exchanged letters related to matters of national security between North Korea and the United States.
The Intelligence Community in combination with the U.S. military industrial complex and Senate Foreign Relations Committee, did not like that level of direct diplomatic contact and discussion between President Trump and Chairman Kim. Direct communication between the two leaders subverted the IC’s ability to shape the DPRK messaging to support an interventionist and hostile U.S. geopolitical outlook.
The professional bureaucrats in charge of guiding and shaping all United States foreign engagements do not like being cut out of the geopolitical equations. As the former head of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chuck Schumer famously said, “the intelligence community has six ways to Sunday to get back at you” if the President does not adhere and acquiesce to their power and authorities.
Chairman Kim and President Trump discussing how to get along is not in the interests of the people who run the U.S. government. Therefore, any documents or letters of correspondence that Kim and Trump may have exchanged are now “vital national security documents.”
Again, if you subtract the narrative engineering and read between the lines of the claims, that type of document exchange is almost certain to be what this is all about.
(Via Washington Post) – A document describing a foreign government’s military defenses, including its nuclear capabilities, was found by FBI agents who searched former president Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence and private club last month, according to people familiar with the matter, underscoring concerns among U.S. intelligence officials about classified material stashed in the Florida property.
Some of the seized documents detail top-secret U.S. operations so closely guarded that many senior national security officials are kept in the dark about them. Only the president, some members of his Cabinet or a near-Cabinet-level official could authorize other government officials to know details of these special-access programs, according to people familiar with the search, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe sensitive details of an ongoing investigation.
Documents about such highly classified operations require special clearances on a need-to-know basis, not just top-secret clearance. Some special-access programs can have as few as a couple dozen government personnel authorized to know of an operation’s existence. Records that deal with such programs are kept under lock and key, almost always in a secure compartmented information facility, with a designated control officer to keep careful tabs on their location.
[…] It was in this last batch of government secrets, the people familiar with the matter said, that the information about a foreign government’s nuclear-defense readiness was found. These people did not identify the foreign government in question, say where at Mar-a-Lago the document was found or offer additional details about one of the Justice Department’s most sensitive national security investigations.

Dear Donald, it was great to see you again in Singapore. I like the idea of using seaside property to develop a tourist economy after reunification with our brothers in the south. Don’t worry about the stories of my military preparing to be aggressive, most of my generals take orders from Beijing and it is a little challenging to keep them in line. As to nuclear weapons, I am not allowed to have launch access and I’m pretty sure Chairman Xi controls all that stuff. Warmest regards, your friend, Little Rocket Man.
This will stop when mass prosecutions, and convictions start.

journalistspropagandists.FAKE NEWS is Public Enemy #1.
This guy was declared the president by The Associated Press
on Saturday November 12, 2020, four days after the fake election.
Aaaaaaand it turns out a “journalist” helped write said ridiculous speech:
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2022/09/figures-unhinged-fake-news-hack-helped-write-joe-bidens-famous-moloch-speech/
Anyone surprised?
They’re all on the same payroll. Thus they all sing the same catchy little tunes. No surprises here.
And by all the major networks 30 minutes before the polls closed in Phoenix, AZ.
Well, the TV networX may have called Arizona . . .
but the election was undecided on Election Night.
NOPE, the election was decided, but they rolled it back and substituted it with b.s.
Hundreds of thousands of Biden ballots mysteriously appeared
and were counted overnight in Detroit, Philadelphia, and Atlanta.
Thus turning Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Georgia from red to blue.
And you can’t see the obvious, that the Network knew beforehand that these mysterious mail-in ballots were coming in to change the vote?
Never before in our nation’s history has there been allowed the number of mail-in ballots that were allowed in the 2020 election.
And The states where all these mysterious ballots appeared stopped counting their votes after midnight. This has never happened before either in our nation’s history.
And you think the News Networks didn’t know all of this would happen? You haven’t been paying attention then.
The MSM are the enemy. If you get your “news” from the MSM you are a fool.
The speech was not broadcast on MSM, (CNN only) ……why?
Dogwhistle to antifa/blm and others, it was red meat.
The “leader” of the free world just identified, isolated and ridiculed MAGA.
It is now okay to hate MAGA. The president says so. Repeat it is now okay to hate MAGA.
Greenlight for acts of violence on anyone resembling MAGA.
Next up another national catastrophe engineered to provoke citizen reaction.
Follow with attempts to disarm the citizens.
Loose the “rioters” again this time well armed.
Color revolution. Think Sierra Leone, Cambodia, China, Russia, Italy and Germany at different periods of history.
Ask not why the Bell tolls, it now tolls for you.
I AM CORNHOLIO! !!!!!
The AP is one of the very worst propaganda outlets in existence .
The people releasing this document are very foolish. Think of this document from the perspective of a booby trap. Presidential papers are far more protected than the following would suggest.
Office security system – preventing take-out of confidential paper documents
In state institutions and corporations, a large number of documents are still printed and stored in paper form – including materials containing classified information. Despite the growing role of information technology, paper documents still constitute a significant leakage channel for classified information according to market analysis statistics. This office security system is a perfect solution for secret bureau where there is a need to protect confidential documents.
Copies of documents can be effectively protected against being taken out of the designated area. The office security system consists of 3 elements – special paper, printers or photo copiers with a sensor that allows to print only on this specific paper and detection gates alarming when paper is moved through them. This is a one-of-a-kind cost-effective solution that allows to protect printouts from being taken out of the designated area. What is important, gates detect documents made on this particular paper, even if they are kept in bags, folders and even wrapped in aluminium foil, which protects against unauthorized leakage of information.
The patented paper production technology provides a high level of security and good print quality. It provides a detection area between 60 and 80 cm depending on the amount of magnetic fibres in the paper and the level of electromagnetic noise in the environment. As a standard, there are two types of paper available (with high and low microfibre density) in A4 and A3 size.
The office security system operates in a frequency band of 200 Hz using a special EM detection technology. Electromagnetic gates show the highest resistance to shielding with metalized objects and some types of non-magnetic metals. Thanks to the 3D technology applied in the system, the gates detect paper in any position, included folded, crushed, cut or inserted between other sheets of paper, in a briefcase or in aluminium foil.
The office security system also gives the possibility of using microfibers and printing on “secure paper” to protect against counterfeit products (e.g. excise bands).
Interesting fact!
The counterfeit market is worth around EUR 423 billion and generates EUR 14.5 billion of loss annually in the European Union.
The office security system enables a simple implementation of additional security measures in the existing methods of authentication, e.g. banderol or excise marks placed on alcohol, cigarettes or medicines. The use of a unique magnetic marker makes counterfeiting of such a security element virtually impossible. Additionally, it facilitates a random and quick inspection of warehouses and stores using hand-held detectors, and an easy and quick check whether the product has been taxed/ is original or comes from an illegal source.

Trump played them again. And he once again exposes the FBI, DOJ and the Fake News as the ENEMY of the STATE.
President Trump called Schiff a “watermelon head” in PA.
Ha! My thoughts exactly
Wash Post panting like a dog in heat for their next Pulitzer prize for journOlism based on the leaked information and the story dictated to them by the FBI and CIA. Clown Goberment, Clown Media, Clown 81 MIL ghost voters.
Its NOT “leaked” when its spun so far as to be unrecognisable.
We seen this game before, over and over, and its obvious it is athiest “playing” it, who have never heard of “the boy who cried Wolf!” and so must learn the lesson, first hand.
Anyone else here smell the desperation and flop sweat?
It is not leaked when the IC and MSM are one.
Repeat….the IC and MSM are one.
Ibama fill the public square with so much bs the public no longer knows what to believe.
Obama filled the public square with so much BS, the public no longer knows what to believe……….< <<<- so true.
I kind of like I-bama. I sure was his favorite word.
Wish I could have come up with that.
22 April 22
Obama added, “You just have to flood a country’s public square with enough raw sewage. You just have to raise enough questions, spread enough dirt, plant enough conspiracy theorizing, that citizens no longer know what to .believe.”
He was talking about people not getting the jjab.
Freudian slip in my humble view.
I-bama doesn’t have to look very far to find raw sewage.

Thanks to him signing the Smith – Mundt Modernization Act into law 10 years ago.
Good observation, CJ Shecky. A close reading of the revised S-M Act makes me think that the government is now AUTHORIZED to feed its own propaganda and spin to the letter networks. The 4th Branch and the MSM are indeed one entity, with one paymaster.
Agreed. Both are so full of BS their eyes are brown, if not, then they are running a quart low.

Its a controled leak, is that better?
Dan Bongino has their number. Today he named and skewered Devlin Barret as one of the I.C. Deep State’s primary media “fake news leak” recipients at WaPo
Really? Q anon propaganda nonsense?
Hope porn.
Take it elsewhere.
Before you judge, perhaps you might want to read the post of ‘Q anon propaganda nonsense’. While you may not accept it, ‘Q anon’ gave birth to thousands of digital soldiers doing research that you are now accepting, as well as being responsible for 75 million voters (and additional 10 million from 2020) voting for Trump. MSM spent a great deal of time vilifying ‘Q anon’. You need to wonder why.
Still trying to figure out who this “Q anon” is—there was “Q” and there are anons. The anons are researchers that dug deep (there are some still working) like you pointed out, knowledge scares the media.
Also they are the best and fastest meme makers ever, they got to schumer if you remember the “enough with the memes” comment.
So, which of the two were the ones repeating other’s work and not attributing it?
Sure made them look good.
Look at the bright side, “Q” can nowbe used as a pronoun, if there is a leftist in your life you want to troll.
There are links on the site to articles posted on CTH, they respect the work that is done here.
Q Anon is not reporsible for 85 million people voting for President TRUMP. That is complete and total b.s. Stop drinking the MSM b.s.
The Q movement most certainly is involved in an additional 10 million people voting for Trump in 2020. If you think that’s incorrect, then perhaps reevaluate why all MSM was so fearful of Q. It’s somewhat amusing you reiterate MSM BS, and then accuse others of it….lol
“MSM was so fearful of Q”
Was? [they] still are. :o)
Why are you on this site? Trolls are not allow all your spewing out are mixed up lies.
Do you belong to a cult?
Attributing anything to Q is nonsense. I’m 66 years old and worked Union all my life. In 2016 I couldn’t vote Hillary because I had watched the Clinton’s corruption over the years. I supported Sanders until I realized the Con he was running. I cast my first R vote EVER for President Donald John Trump. Some of my coworkers felt about the same as I did. In 2020 I am only aware of 2 friends who voted Biden and they are educators. Everyone else was thrilled with the performance of President Trump. Bombing the hell out of ISIS got him some of those ten million votes. The USMCA got him some more. Tarrifs on China got him a few more. My personal opinion is that millions of people saw how Donald John Trump loves America and all Americans to the point that he is willing to take all of the shit they throw at him and keeps right on forging ahead. Undoubtedly one of the greatest Americans of all time.
If nothing else, I am older than you. And you may wish to review videos with thousands of people on the sidelines, as Trump’s motorcade passes, holding signs of ‘Q’. Whether or not you, or your friends, were awakened due to Q is immaterial. The point is that thousands were, and much of the information you are now getting from ‘alternative’ sites, is directly connected to digital soldiers who began to research when they were attracted to Q and the political ‘puzzles’ that were being posted.
Sure…..trust the plan.
Nuts.
PSYOPS.
You do you, just do it elsewhere.
*reply to Ed link not j brown. Sorry.
I must have missed when someone elected you hall monitor.
Really? The last refuge is a no q zone. Has been for quite some time. Don’t believe me ask the administrators of this site.
I’m expressing my opinion, and, just like Dem tyranny, you are attempting to remove my right of expression. Read your First Amendment again.
Are you against Trump?
Q spawned a worldwide movement of people who are standing with Trump 100 % and helping where ever they can in this information battle, and you are against that by giving it a negative connontation.
It surely then must be the worst PSYOPS ever.
Sure, sure, trust Sessions, trust the plan, oops now trust Mueller, now Rosenstein but still trust the plan.
Now trust Barr.
How’s that working out for ya?
Military gonna right the ship never mind that would be a coup.
We have enough serious matters to discuss without going down Alice in Wonderland rabbit holes.
“Military gonna right the ship never mind that would be a coup.”
Question.
What is not clear in the next sentence for you?
20 year USAF veteran here. How about you?
We are fighting one coup attempt now by the 4th branch of government. How would the US military running the government be any better?
Logic. How do all coups turn out?
You guys beclown the MAGA movement and yourselves.
Take another pill, maybe it’ll have better results.
The sheep following the wash post leaks are a mirror of you.
“20 year USAF veteran here. How about you?”
Alexander Semyon Vindman is a veteran to so that doesn’t say much to me.
“Logic. How do all coups turn out?”
Well,… the state of America atm comes to mind, and that coup attempt started in 2015 and is continuing to this day.
But I get it you are against people helping Trump if they don’t have your mindset, I have no problem with that as long as your upfront with that, and considering the rest of your comments you just confimed that.
So lets just agree to disagree.
Nice.
Clown first holds up oath then denigrated one who served under that oath.
Got nothing , reduced to personal attacks and slinging poo.
Come to think of it this is a great example of the Wash Post and IC behavior. This is exactly what they’re doing to President Trump.
I request that you respect the site owners wishes. Help President Trump all you want, opine all you want but leave off on the q crap.
Vindman ‘served under that oath’?? Interesting, considering that Ukraine wanted to hire him, as well as his role in Trump’s impeachment. Vindman deserves denigration.
How quaint of you, you both know he was comparing my 20 years service with Vidman which is one helluva slur since neither of you know me.
But ad hominem attacks just belittles you and loses every debate.
Not feeding you q clown trolls anymore today.
Sorry to have misinterpreted your somewhat confusing post. My bad.
Exactly!
“Q” spawned nothing of the kind! It rode Donald Trump’s coat tails for the publicity and made a hundred and one predictions that never came true.
MSM talking points, I wonder why,……
Some are saying Trump may be Q. Didn’t he play a Q song at the end of his rally the other day. The one with Thunder in it?.
No.
In Trump’s last rally in PA, they purposely played the music from WWG1WGA, and they purposely played thunder from a storm, AND Trump retruthed a Q post, but I’m sure it’s just a coincidence
He did indeed.
Dan Scavino references Q regularly I guess President Trump and Dan Scavino are Q-Bots. In good company.
This as opposed to say? …FOX/ABC/NBC/CBS/CNN/MSNBC/PBS/WaPo/NYT’s/WSJ/ et al …so where do you get your news? Your complaints about Q look and sound very much like what the swamp rats say constantly say, hmm…?
Chris Wallace is that you?
Holy shit. Where did all the q bots come from? Cleanup on aisle four!
This is what happens every time. The topic is the wash post leaking doj investigation material.
Normie here, believe in Trump, economic nationalism, the constitution as written and I glean my news from the internet.
Now please back on topic or can’t you q bots speak to the issue?
Chris it is you…awesome.
Trust Sessions.
Peace is the prize.
May Heaven help us have it.
NK was my first thought when I heard this tonight.
Makes me wonder: a letter to the US from NK about their own nuclear systems is classified to protect the information from…NK?
To “protect” the rest of the world — because “they” don’t want whatever it is that Trump was doing because “they” don’t like him being friendly without “them” getting in the middle!
Remember the reaction to Reagan’s “Tear Down This Wall” speech? How dare he!?
HOW CAN THEY TWIST TRUMP’S WORDS IF THEY DON’T KNOW WHAT HE SAID? Yes, I’m yelling (but not at you Deborah) because this is getting ridiculous.
My feelings exactly which means many more have tuned out due to being bored with the never ending coup attempt
Your question reminds me about my question for the covid bioweapons engineering – if China and America are working on a bioweapon together, then who were they planning to use it on?! Can’t be each other. Surely the only explanation is to use it against the people.
How else to reduce the “useless eater” population (that would be US!) per directive from UvahUvahYe Noachide Horror-ee of the WEF who asserts that humans have no souls and are “hackable” with AI and all should be herded into egg-crate Soviet style housing, fed fentanyl all day, and given computer games to keep them amused.
I’d like to hook Horror-ee up to a drip of fentanyl and put it on full blast and see how he likes it, the old devil.
These people are so evil it boggles the mind. How any human would go to their confabs, get stuffed full of indoctrination, and then return to destroy their own nations is incomprehensible.
It is not enough to defeat the WEF. It must be destroyed. Its kind must never be allowed to rise again.
It has all the subterfuge of a ham sandwich.
Wondering how long it will take before we learn this “letter” is a photocopy of the tweet that President Trump put out about the red button on the WH desk is bigger, and that it works! in response to a comment by NK about their nukes?
Very interesting.
I originally thought it might be about the Obama Iran deal he broke off.
I had not thought about NK and Kim Jong Un letters.
Either way….personal copy of declassified presidential records or private/personal presidential records.
Sorry was always taught that Access to Classified Material required two things
1) Clearace level
2) Need to Know.
Without the second didn’t matter what your clearance level is.
The People Need to Know everything their governments do, so that We can make informed choices – No more secrecy.
If the government wants secrecy, then it’s doing something that it should not be doing. Granted this will never be, a compromise is for direct Citizen oversight in some way outside what there is now, such as elected overseers of some sort. Trusted citizens for which they have the right to look at what is going on behind the BS of secrecy. Granted this too will never be allowed, thus the People are within their rights to overthrow their governments for breach of contract. Even this is frowned upon by too many fellow citizens because their fears withhold their acting to secure their place as Citizens. of course, I’m in a very small minority who sees the
pedanticchildlikeunder-developed nature of far too many in and out of government. This we call a country, the USA, has been pointed in the wrong direction for around 110 years, so says my old soul which sees the continual degradation of what could be or the still arrested development of the human race. Oh, I shall return to being just one of the guys tomorrow, to fit in that is.Huh?
I’m just a nobody, but I see your point.
“with Devlin Barrett adding the usual, “according to people familiar with the matter” sourcing.”
The “people familiar” can *ONLY* be people intimately connected to the raid on Maralago.
They are leaking info to spread a narrative.
Attorney General Garland said in his press conference that the DOJ did not leak, it worked through legal filings in court.
Clearly, *CLEARLY*, this is a lie.
The DOJ denied in court that they are leaking yet admitted there are leaks.
I’m not a betting man, but if I were, I’d bet there is NOT a leak investigation going on in the DOJ or fbi looking for the people leaking info.
They want the leaks.
It is the only logical conclusion.
They’re mad because of the special master.
https://www.foxnews.com/media/cnn-msnbc-slam-trump-appointed-judge-accuse-corruption-after-special-master-appointment
Toddlers doing what toddlers do when they’ve been told “No! You may not.”
The Judge is worried about the leaks and mentioned in her order for a special master.
Didn’t the judge say to them to stop leaking as well
Brazen evil tyrants
Hold Meritless Garfinkle in contempt and jail his wrinkled old butt. Enough. Whenever these globohomopedo hacks don’t get their way they scream OBSTRUCTION! Well, yes, yes it is. It is obstruction of you doing whatever you want to your political enemies, you WEF globohomopedo hacks.
This ‘leak’ is the DOJ’s way of telling the Judge they are ignoring her orders.
The order noted the judge addressed her concern about prosecutorial leaks at the hearing with the prosecutor (who denied knowing the identity of the leaker), apparently bringing up by inference Model Rule of Professional Conduct 8.4: “It is professional misconduct for a lawyer to: (d) engage in conduct that is prejudicial to the administration of justice.”
Notice how Garland went into his Bunker after he made that pitiful speech. He has been awful quiet.
“They want the leaks” … yes, and to make certain those leaks occur, they themselves ARE the leakers.
The narrative from WAPO appears, in part, to set up the next move by the DOJ. Appealing the judges ruling for a special master, and/or severely limiting the names of who can be the special master. The documents seized can only be reviewed by those who have double top secret clearances. There are only a few individuals around with double top secret super duper clearances. They are all former employees of the DOJ, FBI, CIA, and WAPO under the Obama administrations. Trust us we are the Government and we know what is best. ARGO…
If anything, the higher the court, the higher the risk for the DOJ since the Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit is under the jurisdiction of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas
Ha!
Good catch
This is my guess, too.
Exactly who else in private industry has the highest security clearances? There are those who deal with the goob’mint on all manner of issues related to cybersecurity. I’d trust them more than the usual alphabet inbreds to review what was stolen, confiscated, destined to reduce our President Trump to nothingness..
We know what their end game is. Beginning with President Trump and then us, it is to eliminate us in whatever way they can. They are not our betters. They are not for law and order or “working for the American people.” They are the spawn of hell!
It would be great if the Special Master’s name was not revealed until later; that is, if we’re playing the secrecy game.
Ric Grenell.
He has my vote!
Fortunately, the DOJ does not get to decide who will be special master.Trump’s team gets to suggest names also.
Pres. Trump LITERALLY CAUSED PEACE BETWEEN NORTH AND SOUTH KOREA, yet the Press at the time couldn’t help attacking him infront of Kim Jung Un – the Press WANTS WAR NOT PEACE!
In FIVE YEARS THE REGRESSIVES AND THE MEDIA FOUND NOTHING AGAINST PRESIDENT TRUMP EXCEPT INNUENDO AND FALSE NARRATIVES. But ignore Brandon’s ties to Ukraine – WHICH IS KNOWN AND CONFIRMED through his SON HUNTER, WHO HAD DEALING WITH UKRAINIAN OLIGARCHS. Yet the Press and Regressives have no problems with our Tax Dollars funneled to Ukraine to fight a NUCLEAR POWER!
https://www.reuters.com/article/us-hunter-biden-ukraine-idUSKBN1WX1P7
Donald Trump, a President who sought Peace for a war lasting 70+ is accused by these EVIL LIARS in the Media of Treason, while a lying (confirmed and exposed), immoral racist, smarmy, petulant FOOL BRANDON tries to get us in War. I’m going to stop here or my post will be laden with Profanity against these foul beings!
I absolutely adore Justice Thomas. May God bless and keep him and his family.
He couldn’t even get Satchel Paige’s quote right! It’s “What age would you be if you didn’t know how old you were?”
That super top secret doc the WaPo is hawking now is probably just one of the newspaper clippings the Panty Raiders stole from MAL.
Would be real hoot if it was just a clipping of an innocuous article from the WaPo,… a hoot that would probably be the last straw for Judge Cannon who would see this illegal leak as another vain and desperate attempt by the DOJ/FBI,… one that causes her to order all stolen items be returned to Mr. Trump post haste and the DOJ/FBI to cease and desist from their now revealed on going Scam to smear Donald Trump and harm his reputation.
Something out of a Baron Trump book report
pilfered from his bedroom by the FBeye thieves?
At the very least, they need to get President Trump’s passports and all personal effects back to him. His passports, so he can attend Abe’s state funeral in Japan.
They’re so ignorant, they don’t realize what they are doing to their own so-called reputations and to,our country. We look like fools to the world.
Likely Kim Jong Un letters, but still could be related to Obama’s Iran deal ..
was that the pallets of cash deal?
The Hill? SPIT.
These people are insufferable.
Insufferable, anti-American, treasonous ba*turds!!
Correct me if I’m wrong but I believe the actual leaks of the contents of evidence of a criminal probe is a felony? If so, crimes are being committed by the very government who’s engaged in the search of a crime against the political opponent of the politician who authorized the Raid.
A leak is not a leak if it’s a lie and lying to the press is not a crime.
I think that TPTB, (from more countries than just ours), hold their cards tight and play the big stick, cloak-n-dagger secrecy. The tale as old as time with everyone holding their cards very tightly and nobody wanting to flinch first. ((Very easy comment to make.))
I also am beginning to think that Trump was the type of person who sees that type of pontificating as being counter intuitive and/or unproductive toward achieving progress. I also think Trump has a talent, (or possibly better termed a “gift from God”), to cut through that chaff and get to the nuts of a matter.
His brutal honesty and method(s) of “flinching first” or taking that first step/making the first gesture, was something that other dignitaries were suddenly willing to take a chance in letting their guard down.
Sometimes all it takes is someone with insight to make that first move and then the cards start to fall in place.
This type of conduct comes with a GREAT DEAL of responsibility and a GREAT DEAL of letting one’s guard down. Trump is a chance taker like that.
Little story from my past………..
I was selected to be groomed in a group of kids who showed potential for academic advancement. Looking back, I do not think I was any better than any of the other kids………I think is was more a matter of the school system in our area doing some thinking outside of the box, (laced with social engineering), in an attempt to find standouts.
We had an exercise whereby the group of 30 kids were broken up into groups of five. Each group was supposed to represent a country and each country was given a packet with various things written on a dozen cards. Each group was then given the task of having to complete a certain saying.
The groups could send a small delegation to other groups but you could only have one delegation go to one of the other groups at a time. No other form(s) of communication was permitted between the groups.
The delegations were tasked with negotiating with the other groups to try to swap out words so they (the delegation) could bring the swapped words back to their originating group/country. In other words…….limited amount of communication between the groups to try to complete the task.
The game was designed such that there were only enough words, (between all the groups), for ONE group to complete the tasked phrase.
The point of the game was that in order to complete the task at hand……..each group had to trust the other groups and work together to complete the task. ((Get along and “love one another as you love yourself”. Weird concept. Where have I heard that before???))
As each group was trying to be the “winner” at completing the task……no group was willing to sacrifice their words to win through cooperation.
I was the type of kid who believed in getting along with others, but I was also the type of kid who was introverted and quiet. Point being, I thought of the solution, but was too timid to express it to the others.
It seems we, (the world/mankind), is faced with a similar set of rules, but on a grander type scale.
Lo0k at Kim Jong Un reading that letter. Look at his facial expressions and body language when interacting with Trump in the other pictures. Think back to how he seemed to open up in communications with Trump. Think also of how Trump brought the capitol to Jerusalem OR how he got the rag head countries to come to some semblance of cooperation.
Countries, (hint-hint), like the US and our ‘smoke-n-dagger’ thinking IC feel the cannot permit that type of interacting to go on. It blows their self-pontificating delusions of grandeur and screws it all up. They would loose control and control is power and power is everything.
God can facilitate and expose us to the possibilities of paths that can be taken, but it up to us, (ALL, COLLECTIVELY), to take the chance and open the doors to the course(s) we choose to take, (as a collective brotherly body of mankind).
Saying abound on this issue.
“You can lead a horse to water, but………….”
“Can’t teach an old dog new tricks.”
“The road to hell is paved with………..”
“There is no fate but what we (CHOOSE TO) make.”
etc…..
*************************************************
All that being said……….permit me to give you one other example from my past.
In high school, I had another teacher who liked to think outside the box. One day in class, the teacher had us play a game.
In this game, there was a finite number of poker chips. The chips were in 3-colors, (to represent differing denominations). The chips were randomly passed out to everyone in the class and a game, (of sorts would begin). The game was to last about 5-10 minutes.
During the game…….students would walk around the room and challenge each other to bets. During a challenge, each student would hide an undisclosed value of chips in down turned hands. When challenged, the challengers would open their hands and the higher value chips would win the chips for that challenge.
The game went on like this for the 5-10 minutes. At the end of that time………each student would tally up the total value of chips they had won.
Rules to the game were that at the end of a 5-10 minute challenge, the students were separated into one of three groups, (dependent upon the total value of chips they held). ((Keep in mind, there were a finite number of chips.)) The significance was that these three groups represented a lot of kids being in the lower class, a lesser number being in the middle class and only a select few being in the upper class.
After separation into the 3-classes……….the select few in the upper class were tasked with making up the rules for the next game.
After two rounds, I had worked my way into the upper class. The rule EYE, (“EYE” is “I” with emphasis)…..EYE proposed we take ALL the chips. Put them in a pile and separate them equally among everybody. ((I know, I know……..how socialistic in nature.))
The chaos that ensued at my proposal was AMAZING, (as no one wanted to be equal to everyone else). After an intense amount of bickering and chaos……the teacher intervened and put the issue to a vote.
The class voted to assassinate me.
I was pulled aside by the teacher………commended for my effort and instructed I could not play the game any further.
A stupid little exercise in a controlled class setting, but how parallel to how the world REALLY works.
Human nature is that people do not ‘want to be’ equal.
Money.
Power.
Greed.
Throw in a little sex, drugs and rock-n-roll………….and well, “no matter where you go…..there you are”. [ht: Confucius]
Rings true. As soon as I read it, I knew Sundance had nailed it.
It really bugs the Left that Donald Trump tried to make peace with North Korea, while Obama could do nothing.
The transition of the the American Left to corporatism would not allow Barry to engage in simple diplomacy with Kim Jong Un.
Leftists are such sad people. They know government is the path to heaven on earth, but they have no idea what to do next. So they drag us behind them on this endless peregrination.
Not okay for President Trump to have but also not that important to national security because the FBI/DOJ leaked it to WaPo.
In other words, the DOJ/FBI is reinforcing the need for a special master by leaking information gained by the raid on Mar-a-Lago. Nuclear secrets? What lengths will the Fourth Branch go to to destroy anyone who does not comply with their narrative? With each passing day, the FBI is proving that it is not a law enforcement agency rather it is a Democrat policy enforcement agency and a Democrat cover-up agency.
Were there transcripts from Hunter’s laptop in there? If so, would they leak that? Was there information on Hunter’s deals with the CCP and how much involvement the Big Guy had in the scheme? This raid was not about presidential records. This raid was about covering up the misdeeds of the current and pre-Trump administrations. Nuclear secrets? Yep, American citizens were outraged when we learned that pallets of cash were flown to Iran in the dark of night during the Obama administration. Now that Iran is on the verge of having their own nuclear arsenal could the “nuclear” secrets be about deals made in secret to arm Iran with nuclear capability? Joe’s vulnerability #2. Garland’s providing cover once again.
I hope the Democrats are wearing thick waders with strong boots since they keep stepping in it deeper and deeper!
Considering the source, I wouldn’t believe a word of it until it proven true. Besides, serious investigations don’t leak, this one leaks like a sieve.
Well, it’s not really an investigation. It’s a modern day witch hunt.
No doubt the “document” will have a freshly minted passport as an attachment…
Personally, I don’t want ANY country’s nuclear capabilities to be a secret. Why would our government want its citizens to be kept in the dark on something so important? I hope Trump prints the info on the menus at Mar a Lago.
Browser, search engine news feeds leading with this retread.
The DOJ has covered its leaking by making sure that many people in the White House also know what they are doing. Getting the President’s approval does many things, including informing as many political operatives as possible, because we all know, they need to know. And don’t forget the Archivist. This entire thing is a political Witch Hunt run through the Archivist.
But if I had to say it, this is being run out of Lawfare. Lawfare running it through the Archivist. Lawfare bringing in their DOJ members to prosecute it, their FBI members to conduct it and their White House staff to approve it. Probably even activated their Beach Buddies to leak it.
The way Comey leaked things; he could always pass a lie detector test. That sort of stuff has to be built in to any Lawfare program in advance. Afterall, leaking is part of the plan.
So I am just suppose to take thier word for it.
Something so classified I can;t see it but just
take thier word for it.. Oh and it is from the
ever mysterious…Source with Knowlede of..
You can get any nations nuclear capabilities from Jane’s
I tho’t they said President TRUMP ate all the top secret docs. Rolled them up, stuck them in his mouth and swallowed them with a big smile, saying it was, “Delicious”.
Didn’t the UNSelect group of turds come up with some “witness” who made that claim?
With ketchup?
We were told PDJT tore them to pieces and flushed them down toilets, there were even pictures and everything just a few weeks ago!
Devlin = The Great MSM Satan
Wish he had an unfortunate Incident with a runaway garbage truck
Did I misunderstand the purpose of the appointed Special Master?
I understood the intent was to stop all viewing of documents until determined by the Special Master which docs could be viewed.
Silly me.
And, as Monticello above stated, I believe accurate. . . the IC and MSM are one.
This is a no-Q zone.
So, its an echo chamber?
No. The site Owner and Mods put their collective foot down on the Q postings a looooong time ago. New here? Sheesh.
So, you mean Sundance embraces censorship?
Q again. Yawn. One trick pony?
Beat it, fu*khead.
The First Amendment prevents GOVERNMENT from punishing unpopular speech.
This is a private space.
But you knew that, Skippy.
Advising that the Q movement gave birth to a ton of digital soldiers, as well as encouraged millions more people to vote for Trump is not a ‘Q posting’. It’s a fact, and has nothing to do with any of the information that was ever posted in the drops. Perhaps you, in your inimitable wisdom, can understand the difference?
I don’t think you meant to reply to me.
I merely observed that Q posting was banned from TCTH years ago.
I really don’t give a rat’s ass about Q one way or another.
No one is talking abut specific Q posts. The discussion is about how there were people who became politically energized because of it. No reason to get into a twist about it.
They have groomed the North Korea distraction for decades, “oh no…they might get nukes.”
All the while the same dumdums are pushing to go to war with Russia with thousands of nukes and can hit any city at any part of the world, hmmm…that makes sense.
Anybody who cannot see the duplicity of the swamp rats at this point are willfully ignorant and are fast approaching being irredeemable.
Save the savable.
So it’s not our secrets, it’s other countries secrets.
Does that mean the other countries are supposed to consider President Trump a spy?
How is the FIB getting away with viewing these documents if they’re so super duper top pinky swear secret? Wouldn’t someone like Tapioca Brain have to give them authorization?
It’s a good thing for the Washington Post that President Trump declassified that document or they would be facing a death sentence.
Top secret documents are controlled and signed for when being passed on to different agencies or individuals, such as the President. Highest classification with “Eyes Only designation” receive the utmost control and are definitely not forgotten. Nuclear has probably the next smallest audience and is guarded like Fort Knox.The scenario presented here is ludicrous and mocks how the established system operates. Obviously false and used to present a narrative against President Trump.
It appears to me that the timing of this newest pearl clutching leak to America’s disseminator of propaganda coincides with judges ruling of special master appointment.
The deep state cannot proceed with their pre-midterm unconstitutional witch hunt for any person connected to Trump
They just indicted Bannon. So, yep. The persecutions continue. And Bannon said they would come for all of us. Chilling.
This “leak”, that only took a week to get out, by “someone familiar with the investigation” makes me think the IC should investigate themselves because of entire time of about two years this supposedly “extremely sensitive…extra top high class super secret information” that has reportedly been stored, at what is described as a totally unsecured and extremely inadequate area, at President Donald J. Trump’s Mar-A-Lago resort, not once, in all that time stored there, was there ever a leak by anyone of these documents.
OMG! This BS needs to stop! President Trump has NOTHING to hide! Screw Barr, he’s butt-hurt too from not getting anything extra in his pockets. These IDIOTS conducting all this is doing nothing but exposing everything that goes on with the US that is classified with ALL presidents. This administration is tearing this country apart and revealing documents that are top secret to all foreign terrorist countries. I have a good question..Where are the past presidents at? And why aren’t they explaining they took the exact information with them when they left the white house? That will be a top question to ask them when they are supenoed to court as a witness to the same rights as ALL Presidents. I say haul them ALL into court!!! Or ENOUGH of this childish BS. They just don’t want President Trump back in charge…well THEY WILL NOT WIN (nasty evil idiits)…PRESIDENT TRUMP WILL WIN 2024🇺🇲👍❤️🇺🇲🇺🇲
FBI fabricates evidence and crimes. No longer an investigative agency. The FBI is no longer a ‘noble’ organization! Shame! Shame! Shame!
And here’s the little problem: “prove it.” It’s a letter. Anyone could have falsified it – such as you. You didn’t provide an inventory and you easily could have faked that, too.
Another little problem: the President has, and retains, the highest possible level of security clearance. Therefore, it is not “unlawful” for him to be in possession of anything.
And, as President, he has the plenary power to classify or to declassify anything. Which means that if he says that a document is declassified … it now is.
However, what about you, mister FBI/DOJ agent? If you assert, as you now do, that these are “classified documents,” do you have that “TS/SCI” clearance, allowing you to look at them? Or did you, if your assertion is true, just break the law? You can’t have it both ways …
One by one the deep state is picking off the leaders of MAGA. Navarro arrested, Bannon is scheduled to be indicted again this time in NY after being swatted 3 times last week. MTG swatted on a regular basis. Biden’s speech was to convince the nation that Trump must be indicted in the kangaroo DC court for the good of the nation. McConnell is a traitor and McCarthy is controlled opposition as well as Grassley. Republican establishment throws the Alaskan congressional seat.
The infiltration by the Marxist’s the last 25 years have been very successful in corrupting all government department and agencies.
What is amazing is how Californian’s accept the collapse of their once great state. Is that foreshadowing the fate of rest of the nation?
The fuse has been lit on the debt bubble, every 1% move in interest rates equals $300 billion in debt.
And that’s just what we know about…Lighten up, Francis. We got ‘dem boys and girls on the run and falling all over themselves to outstupid one another. Hold the line.
We were too busy working to provide, perhaps raising a family and paying taxes, while they used the fruit of our labor to destroy us. It isn’t going to be easy to uproot what the Marxists have embedded in the culture.
This will stop when the judges make it clear that leaking will result in exclusion of evidence, if not dismissal of charges. Law enforcement has no business leaking information in a manner that a defendant or potential defendant cannot respond to. One would think due process requires as much. You want to tell the public about your investigation, then lay it out there for all to see. No redactions. Or, if an inappropriate leak occurs, the entire investigative team gets canned. We have got to cut this crap out.
So, according to the Intelligence apparatus, our enemies military secrets are classified and not even its leader can declassify his own country’s secrets?
Wouldn’t these super secret docs (if they in fact exist) have the Q classification…top secret? stamped on every page? How can anyone not just laugh this off? There is no there there…in my opinion.
That is why they are going nuts over Judge Cannon’s Master Ruling – they have a whole series of leaks planned and want to set the Narrative – this Leak ( trigger word “stashed” in first paragraph no less) was set to go regardless of her ruling – I guess they have to play up rhe National security issue to divert from all the other more mundane “out of bounds” errors in the search , like taking medical records and tax information etc . “See” they say “forget about that Constitutional /Presidential Records technical stuff , we found the real mother lode -top security …looks like …espionage! “
” …
Plus , after the big rally in PA. They Needed to try to deflate , regain momentum , change the focus back etc etc
Bezos is scrambling to save his EMPIRE, too much rent on those spacious buildings huh Jeffey? How’s that FUEL situation for all those mini vans delivering CHINESE crap all over the country?…..Bwhahahahaha, WAPO said what?
A distraction for Bezos: He is busy worrying about and trying to get ahead of the German company (Axel Springer) which purchased Politico and then promptly expresses support (and is praying for) Donald Trump. 😎
Devlin Barret? Oh puh-leeze! Him again?!
Good buddy of Swivel Head Strzok and Da Lovely Lisa Page.
The constant non stop leaking, which DOJ admits, will reinforce a Trump demand to invalidate the DOJ search and return every document.
Not doing so will let every American know they no longer have 4th Amendment rights.
