The Department Of Justice Is closing in on Spygate, probably the worst election scandal in American history.
Basically, here's what happened. Former DNI Richard Grenell who had access to everything explains it quite well here in a great speech at the Republican National Convention. While the whole speech is a gem, the part on Spygate starts at 5:40
As former DNI Grenell points out, Biden came up with the idea of targeting General Flynn, the incoming National security advisor weeks before the inauguration. Declassified notes written by Peter Strzok proved that Joe Biden was the one who suggested going after General Michael Flynn using the Logan Act.And exactly as Richard Grenell said, they came up with totally bogus 'evidence' from a dossier paid for by the DNC to get a FISA order to spy on the Trump campaign during the election itself. They also lied to judges and conducted secret surveillance on the Trump campaign beyond what FISA's rules call for. And the FBI, CIA and members of the Obama Administration were all part of this.
U.S. Attorney John Durham, who is leading the investigation into the Obama administration’s spying on the Trump campaign has already gotten a guilty plea out of former former FBI lawyer Kevin Clinesmith, who admitted to altering evidence that the FBI used to get a FISA warrant extension for another 90 days to continue spying on the Trump campaign.
The FBI even admits they acted wrongly. FBI Director Christopher Wray has agreed there was illegal surveillance on the Trump campaign.
Think about that for a moment. Here we have the lame duck administration of a Democrat president spying on the candidate of the opposing party during an election. And using the American people's national security apparatus to do it.
This has never happened before in America's history. And it's worth asking why this happened. Who would have given the orders for this? Would high government officials and the then vice president have done this on their own?
Doubtful. The orders for this came from someone at the top. And it's worth recalling that this is an administration whose President was willing to weaponize the IRS, the Department of Justice, Homeland Security, ICE and other government agencies for partisan political reasons, something else unprecedented in American politics.
It gets better. In May, declassified Department of Justice (DOJ) documents showed clearly that
President Obama was aware of the illegally wiretapped conversations of
then-incoming National Security Adviser Michael Flynn with then-Russian
Ambassador Sergey Kislyak as far back as December, 2016. Joe Biden was also
aware, and was present at a White House meeting where the bogus Flynn
investigation was discussed. So yes, they knew.
Also, U.S. Attorney Durham is also investigating whether Obama’s former CIA Director, John Brennan, pressured the Intelligence Community into pushing the theory that Russia was trying to help Donald Trump win in 2016. That of course was bogus as well.
Actually, Putin was really hoping Hilary Clinton would win. Aside from fact that Russian intelligence, along with Iran and the Chinese among others had already hacked into her unprotected and illegal server and retrieved classified documents ('Come now Mrs. President. We wouldn't want to release these to the American public, now would we?') Putin had already dealt with Hillary Clinton before and knew she was easy to bend. Among other things, during her Russian 'reset', Mrs. Clinton gave the Russians full details of America's most secret anti-missile defenses, known as 'hit to kill.'
Also, Fred Fleitz,a former CIA analyst who also worked on the House Intelligence Committee accused then-CIA Director John Brennan of suppressing the truth in a report in 2017 that alleged that Russia backed Trump over Clinton, which contradicted a House committee report from March 2018 showing that it did not.
As it turns out, newly declassified intelligence of the kind former DNI Richard Grennel accused the Obama administration of classifying to hide exactly how spygate was pulled off. In this case, Flietz revealed that his sources inside the House Intelligence Committee told him “the actual drafting of the intelligence community assessment was done by three close associates of former CIA Director John Brennan who refused any evidence, even high quality evidence that suggested that Putin would have preferred dealing with the venal and self centered Clintons. This is contrary to the usual practice which makes these things a community effort of all 14 US intelligence services.
What we maybe seeing here as this gathers steam is a criminal prosecution of John Brennen for lying to congress. Of course, as a Muslim, he's allowed to lie to infidels.
Brennen has been a very interesting CIA head. As The Weekly Standard‘s Stephen Hayes reported, Brennan directed the CIA to hide most of the documents seized in the Osama bin Laden raid, because that information contradicted the Obama administration’s narrative of a “decimated” al-Qaeda, a moderate Iran, and success in fighting radical Islamist terror.
Brennan also had the CIA force survivors of the Benghazi attack to sign non disclosure documents to silence them...at the funeral service for the victims.
As I said, an interesting CIA director. Here's hoping John Durham's investigation reveals the truth.
