If you have followed the construct of the Trump-Russia collusion story, you are likely outraged that accountability has not followed. There’s a very frustrating reason for that, and I will explain how two distinctly different issues are being conflated. Separating them is the key.
The first issue is the FBI’s illegal surveillance of presidential candidates, including candidate Donald Trump. The second issue is the Clinton campaign inspired Russia-Collusion story, that led to Crossfire Hurricane, colloquially known as “Russiagate.” All investigative emphasis, including John Durham, has been on the latter which takes you into a DC silo construct where all tentacles lead to dead ends and inaction.
Russiagate was a Clinton-inspired political smear campaign that was given the patina of credibility by the FBI opening the investigation called “Crossfire Hurricane.” If you focus on that storyline, you end up with zero accountability and endless talk that goes nowhere.
However, if President Trump and DNI Tulsi Gabbard reveal the first element, the FBI’s illegal surveillance of candidate Donald Trump, that path has a physical trail and documents that cannot be deflected by political obfuscation.
♦THE FBI SURVEILLANCE – The original agreement between Clinton and Obama, going back to 2008, was for Obama to take the nomination, the presidency and then eventually support Hillary Clinton’s 2016 election bid.
Obama would be President. Obama would appoint Clinton to Secretary of State, Hillary would then use her office to build wealth for herself and her family, and then HRC would exit the Dept of State to begin her presidential run.
John Podesta would enter the Obama administration as Hillary left (post Benghazi mess) in 2013. Podesta would look out for Hillary’s interests from his position inside the Obama White House. The Clintons and Obamas never fully trusted each other.
Barack Obama would put all the mechanisms into place that would transition his administration into Hillary Clinton’s. That was always the plan running in the background.
In 2015, Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama had a check-in meeting -just touching base to firm up the goals and objectives as Hillary began her campaign launch. Podesta then left the White House to take up position inside the campaign, and Obama would maintain Clinton’s interests as planned without a monitor.
All of President Obama’s appointments, in/after 2015, were essentially through the prism of assisting Hillary Clinton to win in 2016. Attorney General Loretta Lynch (tarmac meeting), Deputy AG Sally Yates, Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe and FBI Director James Comey were all part of that.
This is a key point missed by many. In the last two years of Obama, the cabinet and top-tier members of the administration would align their institutional interests to that of Hillary Clinton.
Technically, Hillary had eyes and ears all over the White House at the time, and with Hillary Clinton being a foregone conclusion, per the expectations of Washington DC, everyone would fall in line during the transition from Obama to Clinton.
Again, this was the general plan. Obama would show up in 2016 to campaign for Hillary, and all would be seamless.
The FBI was aware of the plan for transition from Obama to Clinton. Hence, the FBI role in eliminating the threat later presented by the Hillary Clinton laptop scandal, private servers and the subsequent issues of her receiving and transmitting classified information.
Remember, Clinton’s motive as Secretary of State was to sell her position for material wealth. That’s why she used a personal email, maintained her own servers, and generally controlled how her activity could be monitored and tracked. [Also, she didn’t fully trust Obama]
The FBI activity was to support, defend and facilitate the Clinton effort. This is again a key to understanding “Russiagate.”
After March 2016 (Super Tuesday), it became obvious Donald Trump was going to win the Republican nomination. Trump would be Clinton’s opponent.
♦The surveillance – Using access to the NSA database, the U.S. Govt., specifically “FBI Contractors”, began doing political surveillance of Donald Trump’s campaign. This intel was then sent to the Clinton team. Clinton would benefit from knowing the communication inside the Trump campaign. All of that intel was in the metadata captured by the NSA and searched by the FBI contractors.
All of this activity was political surveillance, using govt resources to feed the Clinton team the info.
♦”RUSSIAGATE” – When the Clinton campaign launched the Russia Collusion dirty trick move against her opponent Donald Trump, originally using Fusion GPS and Glenn Simpson, the role of the Obama administration was to facilitate the political hit, and at the very least not impede it. Hence, former CIA Director John Brennan briefing Barack Obama on the status of the Russia collusion hoax as it spread in 2016 via the Clinton campaign.
However, as a result of the circle of information, Obama had a problem. The sourcing of the intel could trace to the illegal FBI surveillance of the NSA database. That’s why they needed a plausible shift within the surveillance. That’s where the Carter Page FISA comes in.
Specifically, because President Obama was, by extension, now a participant in the Clinton created “Russia Collusion hoax,” and specifically because his administration officials were participants in the process (DOJ, FBI), when President Trump won the 2016 election, President Barack Obama was now exposed by the threat the operation represented. This context is the impetus for the January 5, 2017 meeting and subsequent Susan Rice memo.
Following the surprising result in the 2016 election, the team around Obama was constructing plausible deniability.
President Obama did not orchestrate the Russia Collusion hoax; he facilitated it by not interfering with his administration officials who were assisting Hillary Clinton. This is a key distinction.
President Obama knew what was going on, and he was willfully blind as it was carried out. However, the mess and fallout from the effort his FBI and DOJ officials put into assisting Hillary Clinton eventually represented a threat to President Obama.
With an assist from pressuring allies in the legislative branch, Robert Mueller and all 19 of his Clinton-aligned Lawfare operatives were put into place to cover-up the mess created within the Russia Collusion operation. Mueller +19 Lawfare embeds continued the Crossfire Hurricane operation, while the extreme Lawfare strategy was deployed against the Trump administration.
That’s the short, encapsulated version.
The Russia Collusion hoax was created by Hillary Clinton, spread to media through Fusion GPS, and given the patina of credibility by the DOJ and FBI. President Obama facilitated the operation by not interfering in it until it became a threat to him personally.
Both the Obama and Clinton political teams supported and organized the Robert Mueller cover-up. All of this activity is because Hillary Clinton was supposed to win. They all knew the “dirty tricks” that were deployed and specifically what systems were utilized in order to carry it out.
♦ Awakening the public. Among the information President Donald Trump has requested for declassification, there are two important document sets being overlooked.
#1 is the 2017 99-page opinion of FISA Court presiding Judge Rosemary Collyer, covering 2016 FBI Contractor abuse of the NSA database. Tulsi Gabbard needs to get the unredacted version, read it and declassify it. [Yes, revealing the names of the actual FBI contractors]
#2 are the NSA “audit logs” which were preserved by NSA Director Admiral Mike Rogers, as outlined in his testimony. Where does NSA store their audit logs?
Both document trails outline the FBI conducting political surveillance of the 2016 Republican Presidential nominee, Donald Trump.
This is the originating data that follows a parallel path in the FBI’s Crossfire Hurricane investigation.
Both paths, (1) the FBI illegal political surveillance, and (2) the Clinton campaign Russia Collusion/Crossfire Hurricane investigation, intersect at the Carter Page FISA warrant and merge together. However, it is important to see them as two distinctly different paths.
The illegal surveillance path was made legal retroactively by the FISA Warrant against Carter Page.
Investigating ‘Russiagate‘, as dirty and unseemly as it was, takes you to a place where politics infected the DOJ/FBI, and every participant carries plausible deniability. However, investigate the 2016 illegal surveillance of Donald Trump’s campaign via the NSA database, and all of that activity cannot be justified.
Do you understand the difference?
If you understand the difference above, then you start to realize why John Solomon is focusing on Russiagate. Beware the person who picks up the flag at the front of the parade, for they are likely steering the crowd for a reason.
Focus on the FBI surveillance of the GOP in 2016, by focusing on how they exploited the NSA database.
As to the Audit Logs preserved by Director Rogers, there are two strong likelihoods:
#1) I suspect one of the workstations involved in the database searches could be identified as an FBI workstation in the DC Law Office of Perkins Coie. At least that workstation could be in communication with the NSA search results.
#2) I also suspect one of the workstations involved in the database searches will be located in the office of Samantha Power at the State Department, with a user id login designated to Power (but she may not have physically logged in). This would be an external, non-domestic, workaround to the legal limits of surveillance. A log-in that can take place from any country not technically bound by the 4th amendment search restrictions found domestically.
Both #1 and #2 above are directly connected to Hillary Clinton. #1 was her campaign law firm, and #2 was her former office in the State Dept.
Bottom line. Authorized “contractors” with the USIC were conducting illegal political surveillance on the 2016 GOP presidential contenders and funneling the results to the Clinton campaign.
There is a document trail directly to this activity, and audit logs showing exactly who was doing it.

[One feature of this website is that you cannot cut and paste text from it. So what is written below may have been paraphrased slightly in the interest of time.]
The Supercomputer, The Hammer, was created under Robert Mueller’s watch. “The last person that should be investigating Donald Trump was Robert Mueller who was collecting information on Donald Trump 10 years ago (before Russiagate),” stated by CIA contractor turned whistleblower Dennis Montgomery.
Montgomery asserts that the FBI, under Director Robert Mueller, supplied the computers used to create a private, illegal, unconstitutional, super surveillance system that President Obama’s spy chiefs used to spy on Trump.
Montgomery alleges that Obama’s CIA director Brennan and ODNI Clapper, with computers supplied by Robert Mueller, used their newly created surveillance system to spy on Donald Trump, Trump’s associates, Supreme Court justices, and millions of innocent Americans.
Strozk and Page were responsible for burying the whistleblower claims of Dennis L. Montgomery.
Montgomery secured a kind of limited immunity agreement dependent upon his giving all his hard drives and data to James Comey.
The Russiagate scandal was an attempt to bury the scandal of Brennan and Clapper spying on Americans.
I specifically recall George Bush Jr., regarding passage of the Patriot Act stating unequivocally on national TV that the surveillance tools were needed ONLY FOR FOREIGN TERRORISTS and that Americans would not be spied upon.
Then more recently, I read about the two men who created the supercomputer. They designed it to have American citizen names unreadable. They explained that feature to either Bush or Michael Hayden, I forget whom. They were told they HAD TO INCLUDE AMERICAN CITIZEN NAMES. They were shocked, but complied.
Thus our Constitution has been damaged and is now on life support, for years now, possibly starting with the National Security Act of 1947 which created the CIA.
Right! American Citizens could be included if there was some possible unsubstantiated links to a foreign suspect linked to. But they justified it by saying they would have to get approval by a FISA judge. That worked well. Seems they can manipulate evidence and lie to the judge with little to no consequences. And that’s if they are found out.
Also, we now know that judges are not pure as the driven snow when it comes to ethics and our Supreme Court doesn’t seem to care all that much.
At least, that’s what I observed.
question posed…
Why are the accessing the database prior to the FISA
I think they have to get approval from the FISA Judge before-like a subpoena. They probably had already accessed the database anyway. Judge approval just a formality to cover their butts.
Just my opinion because I really don’t know

Re “[One feature of this website is that you cannot cut and paste text from it. So what is written below may have been paraphrased slightly in the interest of time.]”
It has not just been “slightly paraphrased,” it has been greatly paraphrased.
Thankfully though, that site’s words can be copy and pasted by using a feature called “Immersive Reader” if you have that. To find out (in case you’re not sure), hover your cursor over each little icon at the top of your computer screen while logged into the site. If you see Immersive Reader pop up, click it and the article will open in a new tab. From there, you can copy and paste anything you wish to.
I’m not trying to be critical, by the way. I appreciate the link very much.
Or use your browser “developer tools” to drill down through the html to find the text and copy that. AFAIK, “Immersive Reader” is an MS Edge tool.
Yes to both. I wasn’t sure whether or not IR is an Edge exclusive, though.
This is deep stuff, Sundance, and supported by legal precedent. A good prosecutor knows that if he has two legal points he can make to further his case, (one extremely persuasive and the other marginally persuasive), he will make only the stronger point in court and discard the other point entirely.
Why? Because he knows the defense will glom onto the weaker point and ignore the stronger one.
Similarly, those pundits directing public outrage toward Russiagate and away from illegal FBI surveillance of Trump, are pretending to be demanding accountability for crimes against the U.S. Constitution but they are actually working for the cabal who committed the crime.
There is a scene in Red Dragon where FBI agent Will Graham confronts Hannibal Lector about the Doctor promoting a misleading criminal profile of the Tooth Fairy:
Graham: “Something still doesn’t make sense to me. You’re the best forensic psychiatrist l know and somehow, (the true profile), never occurred to you.”
Lector: “l am only human, Will. Perhaps l made a mistake.”
Graham: “You don’t strike me as a man who makes very many mistakes.”
Agent Graham may as well be quoting Sundance’s meme:
“When the truth comes out, do not ask me how I knew. Ask yourself why you didn’t.”
I’m not following the John Soloman point. Is he following only one part and ignoring the rest? Is that good or bad?
Yes, Solomon & Co. are only following the Russiagate part and that is bad; it just dead ends:
Investigating ‘Russiagate‘, as dirty and unseemly as it was, takes you to a place where politics infected the DOJ/FBI, and every participant carries plausible deniability.
Follow the illegal spying on Trump, and there is criminal activity that can’t be swept under the rug. It would also show that Russiagate and the Meuller investigation are the cover up of the spying. Vacuum up the evidence and stonewall Congress by stating you can’t comment on an ongoing investigation.
Why are they doing that?
Most likely to emphasize only the Russiagate part of what’s going on, for the public’s mind, is to keep people either unaware or simply distracted from the unconstitutional spying on American citizens and political opponents which will create a demand to end the Patriot Act and gut the tools used to spy on Americans instead of only using them to spy on actual foreign operators.
The agents allegedly confessed that to Solomon:
And if it isn’t stopped—and one day, when it is uncovered—we will lose the tools that keep you and I safe at night.
We won’t be able to find terrorists, and we won’t find spies, because these tools will be taken from us because we abused them in the last couple of years.’
So focus on the Russiagate, but turn a blind eye to the illegal surveillance.
OHHHHHHHH! Now I get it. There are Q people who believe that that “intervention” by the G men was Solomon’s first contact with Q. And it all seems fantastic that they pointed Solomon to Russiagate, but taken a different way – as you have shown here – wow, that is just mind blowing to me.
Bottom line is John thinks he is doing something good, however, he revealed all this, doesn’t he realize that folks like you and Sundance will interpret it this way?
I mean, I was fooled by it, didn’t see it as clearly as you.
Now, that changes lots of things.
Wait, I was working my way through the 2 days I missed. Now I see Sundance Article with True Detective photo in which he explains all that you have pointed out here.
What a hot mess.
It takes a very calm mind to wade through this the way Sundance does.
I am so grateful to him.
Bob Mueller’s team was the clean – up crew.
I deeply appreciate your work, Sundance.
This analysis is beyond helpful.
The only thing better than the feeling of having a handle on understanding what’s gone on and still goes on wrt this unholy mess is my sense that Director Gabbard and her people are also reading it.
Come, justice. Come.
I pray you are right Ma
Thank you so very much Sundance. The work you are doing and have done, boggles my mind. I as a Canadian enjoy learning so much of the banditos in your country. I pray they will reap what they have sown on PDJT and others. Reminding my fellow Treeper’s to hit the Donate Button, for the amazing work Sundance is doing. God Bless.

What a tangled web we weave. Thanks for unraveling it Sundance, making it understandable and putting it out there for someone in the Administration to read. They need to dig deeper like you did!
So Solomon is actually working for Murdoch and the globalists including Obama?
Here is another good article on the origins of Russiagate:
https://bigleaguepolitics.com/howley-heres-the-full-story-of-how-obama-hillary-and-brennan-carried-out-the-crime-of-the-century/
This article will firmly demonstrate the following:
* Hillary Clinton’s campaign used the Christopher Steele dossier before their involvement was covered up
* Senior Obama administration officials secretly plotted to involve senators in the “Russia” conspiracy
* James Clapper tried to use the “Russia” narrative to get the Supreme Court to invalidate Trump’s presidency
* Natalia Veselnitskaya was a Fusion GPS set-up agent who worked out of an Obama official’s office in D.C.
* Peter Strzok ran point on destroying General Flynn and covering up for Hillary Clinton
* Barack Obama used foreign powers to keep the scheme going, even after he left the Oval Office to President Trump
Back in 2019 I had saved a copy of this article that had appeared on the D.C. Whispers website and it is no longer online. So I did a search for how Obama Hillary Brennan carried out “the crime of the century”. I made the mistake of searching Google, and what I got back was this Google AI BS:
AI Overview: The narrative that former President Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, and former CIA Director John Brennan “Carried Out The Crime of the Century” is a political conspiracy theory with no basis in fact. The phrase originates from online political articles and is promoted by Donald Trump and his supporters. The “crime” being referred to is the claim that these individuals colluded to invent the Russian collusion narrative during the 2016 election to damage Trump. Multiple investigations have debunked the core allegations
DC Whispers I think has an insta account that screen shot all their articles and made them into post there.
Is it just me, or is Tom having trouble Fitton that shirt?
It’s not you. He always wears shirts that focus on his physique. It’s annoying. He’s not that cute.
And I thought Watergate was bad.
YES!!!!!
👊👊❤️❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸
This is why Comey has always been my number one arrest. Comey knew all along his Bureau was illegally surveillancing a Presidential candidate and his team. Yet he went along with this illegal activity because he wanted to stay FBI Director when Hillary Clinton won. But, to Comeys dismay, the people wanted Donald Trump as President.
Comey is the key.
Thank you for this explanation!
Sundance, you have a beautiful mind-and coldly logical.
‘…zero accountability and endless talk that goes nowhere…’
But the point is just that: Keep everyone distracted from the decline of the US apace with the rise of the China-based NWO.
(Still underway, despite temporary superficial relief by Trump that doesn’t change the fundamentals.)
Here’s one of many glimpses into one aspect of the fundamentals:
https://modernity.news/2025/08/24/why-are-more-and-more-americans-becoming-disabled/
Keep in mind that China and Russia did not coerce modRNA shots into their own people.
Nor will they coerce the coming Replicons into their own people.
Interesting, no?
For what purpose? https://archive.org/details/beholdapalehorsebymiltonwilliamcooper1991_202003/page/n9/mode/2up
Backup PLEASE, just a little. We understand the Obama-HRC connection, and the culpability of both wrt undermining the Trump surprise win by US voters overwhelmingly stomping Clinton.
But back to Ob, before HRC controlled his assistance with Clinton’s undue influence, who ultimately placed Ob in office to begin with?
To wit, bringing it all fast forward in the puppeteering over Biden’s reign, all fingers point to Ob. But who would have been puppeteering Ob to begin his reign, his implausible presidential run and eventual installment to the highest office in the land to begin with?
Do we run the risk of speculating that the same entity (foreign + domestic) that gave ground to HRC to run on may have also had a hand in Ob’s run, or are we to believe they were completely separate singular initiatives? It would seem Ob was neither smart enough, nor in any position to gain his climb to fame. HRC, on the other hand, has always seemed to have the whip to motivate almost whomever she has needed (or dispensed with those who did not comply), to almost get her to the finish line!
Thank God (literally!) for placing and keeping Donald Trump in the muddy mix I refer to as the “District of Corruption” to win this battle of good over evil! And I do believe the battle is leading to the ultimate war on the horizon of His second coming. Tighten your safety belt and pray like never before!
I remember reading at some point (don’t remember when) that Nancy Pelosi (as House Speaker) signed off on BHO’s candidacy (literally signed off on it). How/why did she know him back then and why would she basically sponsor him?
All this and your other piece, really go to show the GOP are either idiots or don’t care about stopping the Dems and having control. They are a complete embarrassment to anything related to real hardball ‘politics’; we’ve all had our time wasted by these clowns.
In the end I wonder why you {Sundance] even cares, why aren’t you in the Trump administration’s DOJ, because they’re lost with zero solid evidence.
“President Obama did not orchestrate the Russia Collusion hoax; he facilitated it by not interfering with his administration officials who were assisting Hillary Clinton. This is a key distinction.
President Obama knew what was going on, and he was willfully blind as it was carried out. However, the mess and fallout from the effort his FBI and DOJ officials put into assisting Hillary Clinton eventually represented a threat to President Obama.”
As acting President, from the top down, Obama gave the green light and approved Clintons plan when he met Brennan/Comey before Trump took office when Russia Hoax was implemented. Therefore, Obama officially directed it and not just let it play out while he watched… I do understand the story as a whole as Sundance eloquently lays out that Clintons and Obama are separate camps and don’t trust each other but Obama officially directed the heinous crime initially conjured by Clintons to commit treason upon a newly elected President-Elect Trump. I politely disagree that Obama was willfully blind as it played out. He took Clintons plan, whom created it, and put it in play, directed it to his top, and they carried out treason. MO out of 8 billion people, lol. 😉
