Never letting a crisis go to waste is very useful tool, especially when the government creates the crisis. As CTH has said from the first discussion of the classified intelligence leaks, the “leak is the op.”
The intel leak is the operation created by the Intelligence Community to support new expanded powers for the Fourth Branch of Government. It should not be a surprise to discover the institution now leading the charge to give more power for U.S. intel agencies, is…. wait for it….. The Senate Select Committee on Intelligence.
The SSCI is the organizational institution that supports the Fourth Branch of Government, the intelligence branch. The SSCI previously created a bipartisan Restrict Act, to deal with dangerous information on the internet.
According to SSCI Chairman Mark Warner, ‘The Restrict Act’ will give more power and authorities to the Executive Branch to deal with internet danger. Now the SSCI sees the classified intel leaks as evidence for the importance of the Restrict Act.
Well, butter my buns and call me a biscuit, surprise-surprise! Funny how that happens.
(Via NBC) – The Biden administration is looking at expanding how it monitors social media sites and chatrooms after U.S. intelligence agencies failed to spot classified Pentagon documents circulating online for weeks, according to a senior administration official and a congressional official briefed on the matter.
The possible change in the intelligence-gathering process is just one potential shift as officials scramble to determine not only how the documents leaked but also how to prevent another damaging incident.
[…] The president and other officials were dismayed when they learned the documents had been online for at least a month. “Nobody is happy about this,” said the senior administration official.
The administration is now looking at expanding the universe of online sites that intelligence agencies and law enforcement authorities track, the official said.
[…] If the administration tries to check online chatrooms more closely, it will have to navigate legal safeguards designed to protect Americans’ privacy and freedom of expression, former intelligence officials said.
Watching a public chatroom is fair game, but law enforcement agencies don’t have the legal authority to monitor a private online chatroom without probable cause, the former officials said.
“We do not have nor do we want a system where the United States government monitors private internet chats,” said Glenn Gerstell, former general counsel of the National Security Agency from 2015 to 2020.
[…] Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman Mark Warner, D-Va., said the leak raised yet more questions about how the government manages its secrets, only months after revelations that successive administrations appeared to have mishandled classified documents. […] “I think it’s time that Congress plays a role here in setting some parameters,” Warner said. (read more)
Just a few “parameters“…
Swear.
Promise.
Uh huh….
The Restrict Act, also known as Senate Bill 686 [SB686 HERE], also known as the bipartisan bill to empower the executive branch to shut down TikTok. Also known as the ‘online Patriot Act’.
trouble is, once you sign in to one of these sights, you can’t sign out. you might think you did but in reality they are still in your phone gathering Intel.
We are in the 2nd year of the last 7 years folks and the “restrict” act is coming for Christians!:

This is all done so that Hunter Biden can sell a few more paintings.
How about the SSCI putting the bug in the ear of Circus Carney and Billion Dollar Bloomberg to direct global banking to go after Zelensky and the Generals?
When i think of those paintings, it makes me wonder what is beneath the layers of paint? Kinda funny to think the espionage is being passed along right under our noses in the form of Art……Truth is so much stranger than fiction… I need some popcorn!
I’m not sure why the IC and the SCCI need to gin up a fake leak. They have illegally spied on the entire country for decades and no one has reined them in yet.
Who do they think is going to hold them accountable??
This will be reigning US in. We will be denied freedom of speech and prosecuted for spreading truth.
Funny, I was just thinking out loud “if they are writing up a bill. it’s most likely because they are already doing spying on chat rooms”, they’re probably covering.
So we speak loud and clearly so they understand every syllable… >”) ps. Whenever they say outloud what they are (((thinking))) of passing a bill for, that’s our cue they already are finished with that stage of their plan. Catching them doing it in action prior to, is a weak link. The in-between merging. Discover, explore and Know . If we are what they say we are, The Great Experiment, then let’s show them an outcome they aren’t looking for. Let’s look for novel…Speak Louder! Act with knowledge…
Traitors! Sedition, and corruption.
Looks like the SSCI may have lost a couple of the most nefarious members (Pelosi/McConnell), but Warner and Rubio appear to be ready to pick up that mantle and run with it.
I hate these people.
They lost Barbara Boxer as well, just as nasty.
Those two belong in prison.
Stop spying on us!
We need more not fewer leaks.
Just finished reading Kunstler’s post from today, a good summary of the shit-hole about to get bigger & deeper…
He mentions Larry Johnson (his name is a hyperlink), & Larry’s”says the leak was done for a specific purpose” & Sundance’s “The Leak Was the Op” (title is another hyperlink).
You are right on spot Sundance~ The only way forward is to expatriate that patriot act~ We need to look for its’ weakest link.
WWG1WGA~GO DEEP~ WITH LOVE FOR COUNTRY
THIS Sundance! You asked us all recently to offer suggestions on how you could best use your talents and connections and I think ^^^ this ^^^ is how. Help us find the weak links in their armor! And help us come up with a way to exploit those weaknesses. I am not just talking about the patriot act either …I am talking about anything, EVERYTHING that they are using (or trying to use) to trap/hurt/abuse/enslave us. There must be weaknesses, we just need help and a great deal of knowledgeable intellect to determine what they are.
I heard a story about half a century ago about a Sergent who messed up and instead of getting a dishonorable discharge was offered to help them test a new product and he agreed.
They inflated a small weather-type balloon while attaching it to his harness. He thought he was keeping the balloon from floating away until the plane with earwig style antenna protruding from the front began to aim for it. He panicked but was forcibly constrained until he became airborne.
I suspect this young man is in a similar situation.
Sundance wins again!
As usual, there was nothing in the documents that wasn’t known to the entire world EXCEPT Americans, so it is not surprising they created the scam to crack down further on the lives of Americans.
LTC Alexander Vindman also leaked secret docs, but no one thinks to call the FBI or to question his access and removal of classified documents… because he is a dope-liberal, the protected class.
Problem, reaction, solution. I wonder how much FTX and Klaus Schawb money Mark Warner and his criminal cohorts in the Senate received to put together this unconstitutional bill. If this bill becomes law , you can stick a fork in the USA.
past time for removal of the corrupt federal govt.
