Senator Mike Lee questions FBI Director Chris Wray about the FBI using tenuous legal authorities to identify people who attended the DC protest rally on January 6, 2021.

Senator Lee specifically asks FBI Director Wray if they are using cell phone geolocation and under what legal authority this is being done:  National Security Letters? FISA Court? Search warrants based on probable cause?  Wray’s respons is disingenuous… WATCH:

Additionally, according to a segment aired February 4th on Tucker Carlson television show, Bank of America sent customer purchasing history to federal agencies to assist in their investigation of persons who attended the January 6th protest in Washington DC.

Again, demonstrating the ramifications from a lack of privacy protection, the assembly of an enemies list has been part of the overall investigation.  Gizmodo outlined how the phone numbers of Parler users were tracked using GPS and also used by investigators [SEE HERE] This type of exploitation should serve as a warning to Americans…. There is a big brother, and that system can/will be weaponized by government if/when an ideological administration is in power – like now.

The DC leftists have installed national guard troops throughout Washington DC to accompany the fencing and barbed-wire that now blocks access to Capitol Hill.  The intent of the effort has been to create and promote a political narrative that “extremists” are targeting the Biden administration.  However, the claims bear no factual evidence.

The justification for the continued deployment of the troops surround the originating fraudulent presentation of the “storming of the Capitol” that took place January 6th.  However, as almost everyone understands the far-left do not support the U.S. military; and as a result the stationed troops now appear to be targeted by twisted people contracted by DC politicians to feed our troops.  WATCH:

[…] Over the weekend, service members reported finding metal shavings in their food, and at least 74 meals were tossed out and later replaced by MREs, according to the office of Rep. Brenda Lawrence, D-Southfield.  (read more)

Fox10 News Anchor Kari Lake has reflected on the trend-line for U.S. media and decided she can no longer participate in an industry that has devolved to a system of narrative engineering.  Ms. Lake speaks directly to the issue of manipulated news feed script and she is no longer willing to participate in this activity.

Kari Lake: “Journalism has changed a lot since I first stepped into a newsroom…  I don’t like the direction it is going. …I’m sure there are other journalists out there who feel the same way.”

In an effort to keep the Daily Open Thread a little more open topic we are going to start a new daily thread for “Presidential Politics”. Please use this thread to post anything relating to the JoeBama Administration and Presidency.

“This is no small thing, to restore a republic after it has fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may be that our task is impossible. Yet, if we do not try then how will we know it can’t be done? And if we do not try, it most certainly won’t be done. The Founders’ Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, will be lost.”

“But I tell you this: We will not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we will make with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from that day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.”

~ Mike Vanderboegh

This thread will refresh daily and appear above the Open Discussion Thread.

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.

For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

Allow liberalism and leftist policies to be carried out to their logical conclusion and this is what happens. After Minneapolis, Minnesota decided to adopt a ‘Defund The Police’ posture, violent & property crime skyrocketed. Now the same city council that voted to disband the police, are voting to spend more money hiring 200 police officers….

(UK Daily Mail) Minneapolis is planning to spend $6.4million to hire dozens of police officers, at a time when some City Council members and activist groups have been advocating to replace the police department following the death of George Floyd.

The City Council voted unanimously Friday to approve the additional funding that police requested. According to the Minneapolis Police Department, there are only 638 officers available to work, which is roughly 200 fewer than usual.

The White House head of narrative engineering is questioned about why the current occupant of the executive branch does not give press conferences where he can be asked random questions by the American Media.

Obviously, we already know why the control agents around JoeBama do not allow him to engage with the media without careful controls, previewed questions and scripted answers in advance…. Biden is cognitively impaired.  They have to retain the ruse of competency until they are prepared to replace him on schedule.

CTH has watched this conniving, manipulating liar who lies for years.  Nikki Haley has absolutely no central value system other than her own manipulative self interest. It really is quite remarkable how Haley thinks she can just reverse course after criticizing President Trump because she thought the DC attacks had weakened him.

This is Nikki Haley after President Trump CPAC speech:

This was Nikki Haley two weeks ago:

“I don’t think [Trump’s] going to be in the picture,” she said, matter-of-factly. “I don’t think he can. He’s fallen so far.” […] “We need to acknowledge he let us down,” she said. “He went down a path he shouldn’t have, and we shouldn’t have followed him, and we shouldn’t have listened to him. And we can’t let that ever happen again.”  (link)

The difference is Nikki Haley now realizes she has ZERO political capital, Trump is stronger than ever, AND President Trump is going to use his power and influence to destroy the GOPe DeceptiCons.  President Trump refused to meet with Nikki Haley in Mar-a-Lago, and now she is panicking.

President Trump called-in after his CPAC speech for an interview with Fox News’ Steve Hilton.  The interview covered a variety of subjects and touched on current events that are critical for our nation.  However, Steve Hilton praising RNC Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel is a little disconcerting (take note of that).  Hilton might possibly have been activated by his handlers to protect the RNC after the CPAC speech. We’ll keep an eye out.  WATCH:

Note the DATE:

Here's a very serious suggestion for President @realDonaldTrump and @parscale. We know what's coming…

…Hire Catherine Englebrecht from @TrueTheVote to be RNC Chairwoman now, before it's too late. pic.twitter.com/Wm1iMwNyMO
