One of the many things I have learned, in my research and discussions about corruption in government, is that willfully blind defenders of DC corruption all seek the same way to avoid touching it.
The best way to coverup corrupt DC activity is to bury the damaging evidence under a pile of crazy that no one will touch. That strategy works well. I’ll explain why with examples.
There is a rather large network of people, podcasters and financially dependent pundits pushing a false expectation around “Russiagate,” the collaborative Clinton/FBI operation to smear Donald Trump in the 2016 election, and then subsequently use the false Trump-Russia claims to continue targeting his administration.
CTH has outlined a very distinct difference between “Russiagate” and “Spygate.” {GO DEEP} We remind all readers there will likely never be any indictments for the Russigate operation. To understand why, it’s best to think about the Trump targeting operation in stages:
Spygate 2012 to April 2016
♦ Russiagate Apr 2016 to May 2017 ♦
Mueller/Weissmann May 2017 to April 2019
Nadler/Schiff Impeachment Aug 2019
COVID Mail-Ballots 2020
Durham Oct 2020 – 2022
Jack Smith 2022 – 2024
Spygate is intentionally never discussed (I’ll come back to it). However, the Russiagate phase is the part that people are most familiar with. Unfortunately, discussing the evidence behind Russiagate became a lucrative business, and there are now people dependent on retaining Russiagate headlines based on nonsense.
There will never be a criminal indictment for anything to do with the “Russiagate” phase of the Trump targeting operation. The ‘why’ is simple:
Special Counsel John Durham brought cases against the Russiagate crew, specifically Clinton Campaign lawyer Michael Sussman. The predicate of the DOJ case was that the FBI was duped, tricked and misled by the Clinton campaign. Put another way, according to the DOJ – the FBI were victims of the Clinton conspiracy.
Now, despite all of us knowing this is untrue, Durham used this “FBI was tricked” predicate in court. That underlying claim subsequently blocks legal accountability for any DOJ/FBI agent who was a conspirator in the operation.
The first defense Lawfare fabricators would deploy, would be to point out any new criminal prosecution would be reversing the original DOJ predicate to target their clients. To prosecute for Russiagate, the DOJ claimed in court the DOJ & FBI were duped. The same DOJ cannot then reverse the case motive and say the DOJ & FBI were participants.
The unfortunate (I say intended) outcome is that all of the FBI/DOJ actors in Russiagate were given a pass by Special Counsel John Durham.
Instead, the accountability in the Russiagate fraud is public and political humiliation.
The criminal aspect is a dead end.
For five years I have repeated this assertion based on the reality of what took place with former AG Bill Barr, and former Special Counsel John Durham. I hate it. I hated it then, and I hate it now; but it is what it is.
There was/is a lot of government corruption, wrongdoing and illegal activity in the continuum of targeting Donald Trump. Spygate, Russiagate, the Mueller special counsel, the impeachment effort all the way to Jack Smith and Arctic Frost, are fraught with people and agencies weaponizing their duties and offices.
The issue I am addressing NOW pertains exclusively to the Russiagate phase of that Trump targeting operation.
♦ As this reality sets in, and as the Russiagate story begins to fade, the Russiagate limited hangout begins to lose followers. However, those who have a self-identity and financial dependency based on the Russiagate story, begin to make outlandish claims in order to retain relevance and keep the audience interested.
This is the current status, and it has created a problem.
There is a big downside to the nonsense now being promoted by the Russiagate crowd. As I said in the intro, the easiest way to bury the truth is to cover it in a blanket of crazy, so that no one will go near it. That is also the current status.
When you see those with Russiagate identities (dependents) complaining about the FBI, DOJ and even DNI are ignoring them, it’s because the remaining Russiagate dependents are pushing nonsense now. They are creating a crazy blanket that is spreading over all of the Trump targeting investigations.
Patrick Byrne, General Michael Flynn, Svetlana Lokhova, and any alternative media who promote them, including Lara Logan and Emerald Robinson, are now creating a problem. Either by intent or by mistake, they are creating a scenario where people with the power to do something about the other Trump targeting operations are becoming less willing to review the evidence.
Let me give you a specific example using Patrick Byrne, a colleague of Flynn and frequent guest on alternative platforms.
Below left you see Maria Butina, pictured when she was involved in the 2016 Russiagate story. Below right, you see Maria Butina three days ago; she is a current member of the Russian equivalent of the House of Representatives (the Russian Duma).
After being quietly freed from prison in the U.S, there is no way Maria Butina would be a member of the Russian Duma unless she was allowed by the govt of Russia to be in that position.
That point accepted. The original issue was always a question of whether Maria Butina was an agent of the Russian govt, ie. “a spy”, or whether she was just a random Russian gun enthusiast.
Butina’s position in the Duma confirms that yes, in actuality she was almost certainly an agent of the Russian govt. in 2016, which was technically the position of the CIA/FBI. Her appearance in the USA was then turned into an operation to use her travel as a surveillance vehicle for the corrupt intents and purposes of the FBI counterintelligence operation, Crossfire Hurricane.
That operation led to the enlistment of Patrick Byrne, who is recently a self-admitted CIA source/asset, who used Butina as a surveillance virus to infect various GOP political candidates in the 2016 election.
Byrne willingly participated in the operation, befriended Butina, began a romantic relationship with Butina and ran her into various GOP and Trump officials. All of that was always sketchy.
In 2016, Butina was an asset of the Russian govt., used by the U.S. govt. and intelligence agencies as part of their operation to conduct surveillance of American political candidates. This part is known by many.
However, approximately a month ago, just before Patrick Byrne announced his long-term relationship with the CIA on the Emerald Robinson podcast, Byrne was inside Russia promoting a video docuseries of his activity (picture right).
During the promotional events, Byrne told the Russian media and Russian audience he was a covert CIA asset. This was all part of his media promo for his movie.
There is no way the Russian government would randomly accept a CIA operative into their country, unless the Russian government planned to use the spectacle of the storyline to advance their propaganda interests to their domestic audience. Essentially, Byrne telling Russians how terrible the CIA is. This would be an acceptable thing for the Russian government to promote.
All of that is shared to give context to the Byrne group (Byrne, Flynn, Lokhova and more) claiming the larger U.S. intelligence system, under DNI Tulsi Gabbard, was ignoring their continued contacts with information about government corruption.
Of course, DNI Tulsi Gabbard and all reasonable people would politely ignore contacts from, or isolate information from, this sketchy network of unofficial/official intelligence associations, claiming to be covert CIA operatives and telling the Russians about their involvement therein.
Good grief. Can you imagine if Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard participated in anything, anything with a strange guy who was willfully creating Russian propaganda against the USA for consumption in Russia?
The sketchy Patrick Byrne guy is inside Russia telling media he is a CIA asset, and then he comes back to the USA and tells American podcast audiences that he is having a hard time getting the Trump administration to accept his team’s information or assistance.
Again, the easiest way to bury genuinely damaging information is to cover it with sketchy nonsense that no one will touch – including Byrne and Flynn’s vast Venezuelan global voting control conspiracy and all other Q-feeding gibberish.
It’s a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Can you imagine the firehose of whackadoodle stuff that is being transmitted to the DNI by so-called friends of the Trump administration? Then consider the problem they create trying to figure out the crazy from the relevant.
Let me say for the record, this problem is not being accidentally created.
What happens when there is a “peoples indictment” like (let me see if I get this right) 248 years and 363 days ago?
good points SD well done
There are voiced from within congress to impeach Bondi because of the Epstein files.
This is a big “What If”. What if the Epstein files are being weaponized to remove Bondi because she is investigating the criminals in a serious, professional manor and word has leaked out that she’s getting close to completing it.
Like I said, it’s a big what if but it is two dots that can connect if one uses a little imagination and unicorns.
I’ve thought of that as well. I’ve been unable to connect the dots or surmise what is going on with Bondi, Epstein files and the possible/probable indictments/cases against Brennan, Comey, Obama (probably not), Richman or any of the other Spygate/Russiagate/Arctic Frost crowd. I feel more certain that attacks on Patel are because he is “close to the target.” I just can’t tell with Bondi, since she has never been a real subject of vicious smear campaigns. Is she with us, neutral or against us. By us I mean us regular people trying to get justice because of elite wrongdoing.
Here’s what’s going on. Before we can move aggressively with the FBI and DOJ, the decades of rot need to be removed. I’ve seen countless posts on countless sites from people frothing at the mouth for arrests and indictments. Meanwhile, you have imbedded in the aforementioned agencies all manner of saboteurs. Patel and Bondi need to clear out the rot and I believe we are almost at the point when enough has been accomplished that things can move forward. As for Sundance’s post, I can’t say agree with all of it. I think he’s brilliant but frequently too pessimistic.
Dateline; September 17, 1787:
“Well, Doctor, what have we got, a republic or a monarchy?”
-Elizabeth Willing Powel
“A republic, if you can keep it.”
-Benjamin Franklin
Unfortunately, Dr. Franklin, based on these events of the past nine years, it is with the deepest regret that I must report back to you that this republic is lost……..
In that case, the next step should be the coronation of King Donald I. I am not comfortable with our prospects after Trump leaves office. The Dems and RINOs are nasty pieces of work whose vengeance will not be quenched. And that vengeance will be carried out on all of our families, including the Trump clan. And it will definitely trigger Civil War 2.0.
The ease at which the RINOs and Dems slip into the impeachment or lawsuit phase is stunning. What seems to be taking forever on getting justice for all the Spy/Russiagates, CrossfireHurricanes and Arctic Frosts it seems like one turn of the table and it’s snap–time for impeachments.
Banana Republic?
Tulsi is doing a GREAT job in very difficult times. She is The True Patriot!
She’s an exceptional human being.
i agree and all this doom and gloom is accomplishing nothing. I think we need to concentrate on moving forward to making our elections fair and transparent. Even if we can’t get convictions we must make every effort to make the American people aware of all the fraud and injustice. If this were China or Russia , these traitors would be disappeared physically and historically. Ever hear of the Brotherhood of the Rose?
another masterclass by SD, thx!
While most of what you say may be true, I think you are dismissing the very valid point that the left is stealing many elections via the election systems (using algorithms, flipping votes, intrusions into the system, etc.). Various experts totally unrelated to Bryne have verified much of the information and have shown that the systems are designed to commit fraud and have indisputable evidence of election fraud (algorithms, flipping votes, etc.). Experts even have the digital footprints of flipping votes. Anyone interested in seeing evidence can start by viewing the “Stolen Elections” book, Lara Logan’s video interview about the book findings, Lindelltv.com, movies tab “Absolute Proof, Absolute Interference. With all due respect, it’s obvious Sundance hasn’t looked at some of this evidence. Unless we stop the left from stealing elections (yes, the source code originated in Venezuela), you can kiss democracy, western civilization, and Christianity goodbye.
They don’t need to chest the votes themselves when they can influence all of America to vote however they want us to thru propaganda, fbi leaks, and social media censorship and narrative pushing.
I found this on Bit Chute from back in November:
https://old.bitchute.com/video/ybqFC9Q84HZj/
This is the same thing Mike Lindell has been fighting for years, election integrity.
The big money and subterfuge behind this is YUGE!
If we know what they’re doing we can and should stop them
I think the problem with the Venezuela connection was that most of the people involved in challenging the outcome of the 2020 election were concentrated on drop box activity and mail-in ballots PLUS whether or not the applicable state laws were changed to affect the new voting procedures. When the Venezuelan thing came out, it was like it detracted from the other issues and got the blame for the efforts to get the election audited failing. It also led to Dominion, using the actual software you mentioned, suing people involved in making the allegations about Dominion. Back then, the story did not have enough credibility and seemed to appear out of nowhere. Actually, there is a history of that software coming from Venezuela either on You Tube or Bit Chute. It appeared to be well documented.

The ” Rule of Law ” and ” Equal Justice Under Law ” are major – let me repeat that – MAJOR points of contention that must be adequately dealt. Failure to address and ACT on those points will result in an assured destruction of our civil society. I understand that PDJT and team cannot reasonably address those points using our current corrupted legal system, but ” no prosecution ” for treason and sedition ( all those listed are not guilty of simple civil crimes – not protected by any perceived contextual legal maneuvering ) is not an option for the term – let me repeat that – ” no prosecution ” for treason and sedition is NOT AN OPTION!
Reminds me of the “release the Kraken” chaff four years ago.

Soros had this all planned 3 decades ago.

It has always been part of Soros’s plan to let the Eastern European population get slaughtered to facilitate and pressure Russia and China into accepting the New World Order.
This would prevent the western countries from complaining that their own sons and daughters being butchered in pursuit of world domination.
(In this case, 1.7 MILLION Ukrainians were killed for the cause)
“…The United States would not be called upon to act as the policeman of the world. When it acts, it would act in conjunction with others. Incidentally, the combination of manpower from Eastern Europe with the technical capabilities of NATO would greatly enhance the military potential of the Partnership because it would reduce the risk of body bags for NATO countries, which is the main constraint on their willingness to act.”

I watched that Byrne piece that Sundance posted due to commenters asking him to. Patrick sounded a bit too full of himself for my tastes. The other guy, seemed more contained, or that could have been the intention. Anyway I couldn’t imagine that Mr. Byrne, spilled that many beans and lived to tell it all in a book!
Perhaps…
…once a spook and protected, always so?
After better than 200 years of slime accumulating on american jurisprudence it should come as no surprise that a solution will not come thru the courts. The judicial branch of government is racing towards irrelevance. The legislative branch hoisted the white flag 30 years ago. All that is really left is a crazy SOB who refuses to acknowledge the writing on the wall.
I pray he pulls off the ultimate hat trick. If not, the violence that is on the horizon will emanate from all directions; left, right and the middle.

“. . . Byrne and Flynn’s vast Venezuelan global voting control conspiracy . . .”
SD, do you trust the machines?
There are the problems of two elections Trump won with the same machines in play.
Tell me like I’m 5, and need to be slowly walked through this all.
My familiarity with Byrne began when he was all over promoting that he was the bagman waiting in a hotel room, who was going to give Hilary Clinton bribery cash. At that story-time-telling, he weaved Maria Butina into ti. He captured the attention of many.
So I have been here from the beginning and that haunting photo of an empty DC when Sundance went to DC to “share” information during covid, resulting in his coming back with “everyone is silo’d. No one knows anything beyond their “box” and we all know more than any of them.”
So I see what is meant by adding layers of crazy on to muddy the waters, exhaust us all, so eventually, we are like “this onion has too many layers, we’ll never get to the center.”
And I’m sure SD is also saying – not saying – John Solomon is adding on all the micro details as the plot gets so thick we can’t see it any more.
But this…”Let me say for the record, this problem is not being accidentally created.”
along with the Dan Scavino tweet has me confused.
So Byrne, Flynn & co.. are purposefully adding the crazy for their own agendas., But this “not accidentally created” to me means there is another layer above that.
Is there another puppet master above Flynn et al?
Is Dan Scavino hinting at the fact tat the White House knows what game these people are playing? Or is it something else?
In the Game of Thrones I don’t understand innuendos.
Who is creating this situation?
I must be getting old or something, because it seems fairly obvious to me that if the DOJ/FBI can make the claim that they were “tricked” by the Clinton campaign the obvious response should be to go after those responsible in the Clinton campaign. If not…why not?
The claim was made by John Durham in order to go after Clinton associates like Sussmann (the implication being that Durham gave cover to the government Russiagate actors). Does this help you understand?
Thank you, Sundance.
ARREST ALL OF THEM. PUT THEM ON TRIAL. MAKE THEM DEFEND THEIR ACTIONS.
Convictions aren’t required. SUNLIGHT IS.
This disgusting era needs to be put in historical literature so the future Patriots know we were pussies and let these Marxists ruin your country.
PITCHFORKS or Hot Tar and feathers for these Evil Spawn of Satan.
Sundance,
This part right here about the Venezuelan voting control operation-
“including Byrne and Flynn’s vast Venezuelan global voting control conspiracy”
Is that totally made up out of whole cloth?
Is there or was there a voting control operation going on in Venezuela?
* * * * * * * * * * * *
Regarding, Flynn and Byrne, those two have absolutely zero credibility and Miss Tulsi would be out of her mind to rely on either of them for anything.
Either or both seem fully capable of doing anything to destroy her reputation and career.
Back when Byrne was running around with Hot Tamale Marina/Maria Butina, he may have either always been a Russian agent and was helping her as a partner all along or somewhere along the way he turned and became one.
He was probably enlisted early on as an IC spook asset, perhaps in college or after he became an ‘entrepreneur’.
Flynn is a snake and always has been.
It amazes me that anyone would EVER have believed either were anything but nefarious.
0.o
If Butina was a Russian agent, and Byrne is a CIA asset behind this election interference since using Butina to “rub up against Trump supporters” in order to make the charges of Trump being a Russian asset more credible, this could mean that the US government and the Russian government under Putin, get along much better in private arrangements like this, while constantly feeding us with the narrative that the District of Columbia government can’t stand Putin. To enable both governments to scew their own people everyone would have to accept that their governments don’t really get along. Well, they did during COVID, as the responses of most governments (Lock Downs, etc.) were the same, and the US government and the Chinese government both worked through the lab in Wuhan to create the virus in the first place.
Governments get along pretty well. We just don’t see it, or pretend not to know it is happening.
Governments understand each other. It’s their respective people governments do not like at all.
If this is true, there is a legitimate time for some street justice!
“No one is above the law” can now be cast into the dustbin of history.
too bad.
because there will be…and much worse…if the next elections swing left.
Sundance I understand why, and the logic why you believe it that the DS will never be prosecuted; in many ways, the serious matters are not even being spoken about now. I just prayer for you and all of us, that God gives us a miracle of at least prosecuting one person.
Many will choose the big whigs like Comey, Brennan, Barr (yes the a-hole) etc. and 100s of others, but I will always nominate the most disgusting, arrogant a-hole of all time.
This person has earned a public Execution for most disgusting DC critter in Washington and his name is Adam Schiff. So if there is only one that receives prosecution it should be him imo.
God is it’s your will, I pray for the full prosecution and your Justice and Sword to come down on Adam Schiff. And please expose to the country and world all the horrible things he’s done to divide our country and harm our President, and expose his complete perversion with children.
Thank You God for listening. That would be a great Christmas Gift,
