Don't use Trump's own words against him. That just isn't fair. Why is everyone always picking on him by listening to him, remembering what he said and trying to clarify when he says something else. You are just mean.

She does look sick!! she need to have that looked at.

Trump doesn't lie or apologize. We must have heard wrong. Sahara  will tell us what he really meant. That damn fake media with biased audio and video equipment. 

[djAdvocate]

we are actually rapidly reaching a point where that sort of thing CAN be faked.  voice synthesizers are "learning" to emulate vocal inflections.  it will reach the point where the only way one can prove they said something is by having a witness to it.  speech will then become a partnership.

it is probably for the better.  the tweeting seems like the most insecure way of communicating ever.

I'm an EE and know about the technology. It's fine for movies but must be kept out of reputable news agencies. They need to question sources and not jump on "exclusive" stories. That has always gotten Fox in trouble.

 And we have what 35% of Americans who would believe that. Probably going to see a lot more of it in future elections. They believed Trump when he was speaking fake news.

It's odd. The opposition to Trump is having one of their worst weeks ever, but they all seem to be enjoying it believing it's been great. From the raid on Cohen's office to James Comey's book- it's all going to blow up in their faces. Bigly.

"Fox in trouble."...?

Since when were they concerned about that...?

[AgeOfEnlightenmentSCP]

I wonder if anyone reading this can identify the significance of the name, "Huber". It's doubtful. He is the outside prosecutor currently investigating the deep state. He is, in effect, the investigator investigating the investigators...among others.

Congress has now sent a criminal referal...
theconservativetreehouse.com/2018/04/18/congress-sends-criminal-referral-to-sessions-wray-and-prosecutor-huber/

Led by Representative Ron DeSantis congress has sent a criminal referral letter (full pdf below) to Attorney General Jeff Sessions, FBI Director Christopher Wray and Federal Prosecutor John Huber.

The identified targets of the referral include:

•former FBI Director James Comey;

•former Asst. FBI Director Andrew McCabe;

•former Attorney General Loretta Lynch;

•former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton;

•current FBI Agent Peter Strzok; and

•current DOJ Attorney Lisa Page (former Special Counsel to Andrew McCabe)...

The identified reasoning for each of the referrals is outlined in the letter below. However, the risk to James Comey is not simply contained within the letter, but also contained within the non-discussed fact that FBI chief-legal-counsel James Baker is a cooperating witness for IG Horowitz and Huber.

One of the lesser discussed aspects to the ongoing investigative overview is how a few key people, with direct and specific knowledge of the events that took place within the FBI and DOJ activity, remain inside the institutions as they are being investigated.

Those key DOJ and FBI officials have been removed from their position, yet remain inside with no identified or explained responsibility.

Plenty more worth reading at the link.

Yes, Trump's people are working with Trump's other people to persecute Trump's political enemies. Yay Amerika.

Here comes the BIG UGLY...

Called it in January.

"This was transparently a set-up at the time we saw it happening, and the current releases of information confirm exactly that. The intelligence apparatus, namely DNI James Clapper and FBI Director James Comey, conspired to weaponize false intelligence in order to create a media narrative that would damage the incoming president and his administration. There is no other way to look at these events.

The reason we know James Clapper (DNI) and John Brennan (CIA), not James Comey, was the structured leak to CNN was specifically because CNN made a subtle mistake. On January 10th, 2017, CNN claimed the intelligence briefing included giving President Trump a two-page document: (read in article linked below)

…However, we know from James Comey’s memo and his own statements about the briefing there were no documents provided. That means the two national security officials that were leaking details to CNN, and made the mistake about Comey giving Trump the documents, were John Brennan and James Clapper.

As Michael Horowitz investigates the Comey memos, and their subsequent leaking to Daniel Richman, there’s a strong possibility this connection will be made by his investigative unit. Heck, if not, they just read it right here.

Additionally, at the time media were fixated on President Trump’s push-back against the media reports of the dossier specifically because President-elect Trump was focused on the ‘Pee-tape” aspect. We now know the reason for that perspective was simply because Comey never briefed the President-Elect on any other part. He only discussed the Russian hookers, and ridiculous nonsense.

Again, back to the not-so-subtle errors in the January 10th, 2017, CNN report, because they were relaying information from Clapper and Brennan:

[…] The two-page synopsis also included allegations that there was a continuing exchange of information during the campaign between Trump surrogates and intermediaries for the Russian government, according to two national security officials. (link)

No, actually, President-elect Trump was never briefed on “Trump surrogates and intermediaries for the Russian government.” James Comey, stated he never mentioned anything except the Russian hookers and pee-pee nonsense. So again, CNN was reporting on what Clapper and Brennan thought Comey had done and they were getting some of the more nuanced details incorrect.

This entire set-up is particularly Machiavellian when you look at what DNI James Clapper was saying publicly at the time. Remember this release: (read attached Clapper memo)

Publicly DNI James Clapper is saying the next day (Jan 11th) the intelligence community does not have any confirmation as to the reliability of the Clinton-Steele dossier. Yet the previous day Clapper was leaking details of that dossier to CNN.

Lastly, and perhaps more consequentially, remember the FBI used the dossier to get the FISA warrant against Carter Page on October 21st, 2016 claiming to the FISA court the information therein was reliable. However, the DNI is saying three months later the dossier is NOT reliable.

Bastards.

All.Of.Them.

EXPLOSIVE:
Chairman of the House Intelligence Community Devin Nunes appears on Sunday Morning Futures with Maria Bartiromo

theconservativetreehouse.com/2018/04/22/sunday-talks-explosive-interview-with-devin-nunes/

#Fucked

Chairman of the House Intelligence Community Devin Nunes appears on Sunday Morning Futures with Maria Bartiromo to discuss the origin of the counterintelligence operation, that began in July 2016, against the Trump campaign.

Last week the FBI released the original “electronic communication” (EC) documents that underpinned the origin of the FBI counterintelligence operation. The first half of this interview contains some stunning information: the raw intelligence product within the EC did not come through official intelligence channels.

Meaning, the origin of the 2016 counterintelligence operation, which was specifically started by CIA Director John Brennan sharing his ‘raw intelligence product’ with the FBI, was not an official product of the U.S. intelligence community. Brennan was NOT using official partnerships with intelligence agencies of our Five-Eyes partner nations; and he did not provide raw intelligence -as an outcome of those relationships- to the FBI.

The questions, many of which are rhetorical against the backdrop of political motives, become: if the EC is not based on official intelligence from U.S. intelligence apparatus or any of the ‘five-eyes’ partners, then what is the origin, source and purpose therein, of the unofficial raw intelligence? Who created it? And why?


As we begin to ponder the ramifications and answers to the questions in the first half of this interview, we must remember that CIA Director John Brennan gave congressional testimony last year where he explained how he delivered the raw intelligence product itself. We spotted this issue, and Brennan’s obfuscation therein, a year ago, when Brennan first gave his testimony.

On May 23rd, 2017, Former CIA Director John Brennan gave very specific testimony to congress where he noted he provided the raw intelligence to FBI Director Comey – FULLSTOP.

Listen carefully to the opening statement from former CIA Director John Brennan May 23rd, 2017, during his testimony to congress. Pay very close attention to the segment at 13:35 of this video of Brennan’s testimony:

You've already related, in great detail, many times,  how these two government employees said shitty things about Trump. Sadly, it does appear these two violated the 'Everyone Must Say Wonderful Things About Republican Presidents Even In Private Communications With Partners' rule for government employees.

We get that. We are horrified. Oh, the humanity.

Are we done now? Can we stop ?

Probably not Happyhoix. What I've noticed is one of the yuge talking points since the election is Trump as victim.

[Opti]

Its really become purposeless whining in that example. Trump did get elected and they've found nothing except strong statements. Without actions to back up the statements, there is nothing to prosecute. People complain and make big statements frequently without following through. It would be nice, but unlikely that the Trump support machine will ever acknowledge this is much ado about no action.

Interesting spin. I can always tell when Trump tries to chum the waters because he wants to redirect eyes away from him. Where is the investigation on Wikileaks?

Interesting stilted sentence fragment - that we will now counter for the DNC Server ...

His use of language will never be good or clear again, will it?  Cute in a stupid way he's trying to make the servers Wasserman's.
