The Bush Family, the CIA and the British Empire’s war on Donald Trump


It was the best of times and it was the worst of times, the best of times for the Bush Crime Family and the worst of times for America.  The Bush Family played a large part in the formation of the Central Intelligence Agency and has ruled America since 1947.  The recent CIA leaked “report” on Donald Trump’s depravity in Russia was prepared by an ex-British spy and given to the Democratic Party after Trump won the GOP nomination away from Jeb! Bush ending the Bush reign of terror. 

John McCain does the Bush Family’s dirty work


According to Patrick Buchanan, the report was then funneled to John McCain who passed it on to the Republican FBI Director, James Comey.

Excerpt:

Trump's Enemies See an Opening

“Fake news!” roared Donald Trump, the work of “sick people.”

The president-elect was referring to a 35-page dossier of lurid details of his alleged sexual misconduct in Russia, worked up by a former British spy. A two-page summary of the 35 pages had been added to Trump’s briefing by the CIA and FBI — and then leaked to CNN.

This is “something that Nazi Germany would have done,” Trump said. Here, basically, is the story.

During the primaries, anti-Trump Republicans hired the ex-spy to do “oppo research” on Trump, i.e., to dig up dirt.

The spy contacted the Russians. They told him that Trump, at a Moscow hotel in 2013, had been engaged in depraved behavior, that they had the films to blackmail him, and that Trump’s aides had been colluding with them.

When Trump won the nomination, Democrats got the dossier and began shopping it around to the mainstream media. Some sought to substantiate the allegations. None could. So none of them published the charges.

In December, a British diplomat gave the dossier to Sen. John McCain, who personally turned it over to James Comey of the FBI.



Damning dossier was a hoax

Zero Hedge is now reporting that the report was actually a hoax, but in the age of fake news no verification is required before attempting to destroy people’s lives, especially people on Trump’s team.

Excerpt:

4Chan Claims To Have Fabricated Anti-Trump Report As A Hoax

In a story that is getting more surreal by the minute, a post on 4Chan now claims that the infamous "golden showers" scene in the unverified 35-page dossier, allegedly compiled by a British intelligence officer, was a hoax and fabricated by a member of the chatboard as "fanfiction", then sent to Rick Wilson, who proceeded to send it to the CIA, which then put it in their official classified intelligence report on the election.

Here is 4Chan's explanation of how the story came to light:

>/pol/acks mailed fanfiction to anti-trump pundit Rick Wilson about trump making people piss on a bed obama slept in

>he thought it was real and gave it to the CIA

>the central intelligence agency of the united states of america put this in their official classified intelligence report on russian involvement in the election

>donald trump and obama have both read this pol/acks fanfiction

>the cia has concluded that the russian plans to blackmail trump with this story we made up

just let that sink in what we have become.

Fake reporter given unlimited access to W. Bush White House

To understand just how egregious this “fake news” really is we need to go back to the George W. Bush Administration planting a “fake” reporter in their press briefings.  Remember Jeff Gannon of Talon News who always was the go to guy to lob “fake news” questions to George Bush to make him look good?  From Washington Blog:

Excerpt:

All-time most ridiculous ‘crisis actor’: President Bush’s gay male prostitute, Jeff Gannon, acting as White House ‘objective professional media’ to pimp US Wars of Aggression

President George Bush, Jr. used a crisis actor as a very friendly White House reporter to pretend the US War on Terror was legitimate policy to a crisis rather than obvious unlawful War of Aggression all began on lies known to be false as they were told.

As I wrote in 2010, George Jr. used gay male prostitute, Jeff Gannon, to act for two years that the US faced a crisis of terrorism in front of the world’s media.

This is the most ridiculous use of a crisis actor: a US president’s gay male prostitute lover with zero press credentials entering the most elite media assignment at the White House to act that the “War on Terror” is real rather than staged.

Most Americans are unaware that this gay male prostitute was allowed over 200 visits to the Bush White House between 2003 and 2005 with a “press pass” issued by White House leadership. According to Secret Service public records of check-in and check-out dates and times (here and here), most of the prostitute’s visits included several hours of time before and/or after press conferences, 32 times on days without press conferences, and 14 visits without checking-out in apparent overnight stays at the White House residence of Mr. Bush.

Secret Service would ordinarily declare a security emergency and conduct a full search of the White House if their records indicated a person hadn’t checked-out at the end of a press conference. Apparently, this protocol wasn’t enacted because Mr. Gannon had permission to spend the night.

Jeff Gannon’s employment was gay male prostitution; he had no previous experience as a journalist and no association with any media when he began attending White House press conferences. Jeff Gannon’s gay male website had multiple photos of his fully-naked shaved body, and advertises to prospective clients that his penis is eight inches in length and circumcised.

The White House is the most difficult press conference in the world to attend, and only open to the most credentialed professionals from major media, yet Mr. Gannon received special White House permission without any connection to any media.


Comedians do the job of reporters

Where was the FBI and the CIA when a “fake reporter” who was a real prostitute was given unlimited access to the press room and White House and the President of the United States’ residence?  How can the reports prepared by the CIA be trusted?  How is it that America has to rely on comedians to deliver “real investigative” reports?


George W. Bush wasn’t the first Bush to use “fake news” reports to bring America into war.  George Bush Sr. also used “fake news” to sell the nation on his Iraq War.

Excerpt:

President George Bush, Sr. used one crisis actor and two outrageous lies for his unlawful war on Iraq in 1990:

Crisis actor Nayirah, the daughter of Kuwait’s ambassador to the US, lied that she was a hospital volunteer and saw Iraq soldiers murder 312 infants by stealing incubators and throwing the infants onto the floor.

Papa Bush and then Secretary of Defense Dick Cheney lied that US satellite photos showed Iraq military massed at the Saudi Arabian border ready to attack. These photos have never been shown due to claims of “national security,” while commercially available satellite photos show zero Iraq military presence.

Trump banned from Britain

The Bush Family could not have pulled off these capers without the assistance of the British Empire.  Margaret Thatcher was there to assist George Sr. and Tony Blair provided the “sexed up” British intelligence that was used to sell America on war with Iraq.  The British Empire under David Cameron attempted to derail Donald Trump campaign by banning Trump from Britain on “fake charges” clearing the way for Jebby Bush.


Excerpt:

Banned in Britain? Parliament debates keeping Trump out

Britain's Parliament held a boisterous debate Monday on a proposal to ban Donald Trump from the country in a rebuke of his call to block Muslims from entering the United States.

The topic drew plenty of support from the British lawmakers, who don't actually have the power to ban anyone. The debate did allow members of Parliament to vent their frustrations about Trump's comments…

Trump raised the ire of British Prime Minister David Cameron after last month's terror attack in San Bernardino, Calif., by proposing to keep Muslims out until more rigorous security checks are in place. The Republican presidential hopeful also lashed out at the city of London, saying it has become so "radicalized" that police fear for their lives.

It is no secret that the Bush Family was irate when Donald Trump took on Jeb during the primary and dispelled the “fake news” that George W. Bush kept America safe on his watch.  With the Bush ties to the CIA any report such as that of the golden showers coming from the CIA leaks should be viewed with a high degree of skepticism.  From The Horn News:

Excerpt:

Bush’s revenge! GOP’s plot to stop Trump

Ever since the dawn of the television era, it has been every major presidential candidate’s best friend.  I’m talking about the post-convention bounce…  Unfortunately, that’s not going to be Donald Trump’s convention experience. Not by a longshot.

Sure, there will be plenty of unhinged, left-wing nutjob protesters who will find their way to Cleveland for the convention, looking to cast a pall over it.  But they’re not Trump’s biggest problem. It’s actually the GOP establishment that is trying to guarantee that the Republican National Convention will be a circus of negative publicity, much of it damaging to Trump…

It is now a near certainty that there will be a push at the Republican National Convention to strip Trump of the nomination through a rules change. Before Trump even makes his first appearance at the podium, his campaign will be trying to contain the damage from this unprecedented coup d’etat.

If that wasn’t bad enough, a series of high-profile Republicans have announced that they are skipping the convention completely, mostly to protest Trump. Just the short list includes the entire Bush family, Mitt Romney, Arizona Sen. John McCain, Michigan Governor Rick Snyder, and many, many more.

As many as eight Republican Senators may miss the convention. And these no-shows are going to generate a constant current of negative media coverage, even during Trump’s better convention moments.

Trump can’t trust spooks with his life

Is it any wonder that Donald Trump has his own security detail?  With all of America’s spy agencies leaking damning lies about Donald Trump prior to his inauguration, he’d be crazy to put his life in the hands of the Secret Service.  Look at what happened to Ronald Reagan when a mentally ill man with ties to the Bush Family attempted to assassinate him.  Who would have benefitted from a Reagan death?  Bush Sr. that’s who.  So the media is attempting to shame Trump into relieving his private security from their duties.  From Vanity Fair:

Excerpt:

WILL PRESIDENT TRUMP KEEP HIS OWN PRIVATE SECURITY FORCES?
“It’s playing with fire,” one former Secret Service agent says.

Whether you believe Donald Trump should be taken seriously but not literally, or vice versa, there is no doubt the president-elect has his authoritarian tics—filling his Cabinet with generals and billionaires; promising to “open up libel laws” to make it easier to sue journalists; not giving a single press conference since the election and musing that he might do away with daily press briefings; giving his adult children prominent positions within his White House transition team; suggesting that post-campaign “victory rallies” could become a staple of his presidency.

Then there are the habits that tend toward the authoritarian, such as Trump’s penchant for surrounding himself with his own private security forces—ex-cops and retired F.B.I. agents whose loyalty has earned them an unprecedented position of power alongside the Secret Service.

Politico reports that Trump, who had hired his own private security and intelligence teams to work alongside the Secret Service during the campaign, will be keeping “at least some members” of those teams.

Seems very prudent to me.  So hang on America, we only have a week to go and our new President will be in the White House.  But Trump hasn’t been resting on his laurels, he’s already hard at work.  His nominees will be approved and he can roll up his sleeves and undo the sixteen horrible years of the Bush/Obama/CIA fiasco. 

January 20, 2017 will be the day Americans got their country back.  The Trump wrecking ball will smash the GOP into bits and rebuild it into the once great party of Theodore Roosevelt.  Bring out the champagne and ring in the New Year, Happy Days are here again.  The Bush Family, the CIA and the British Empire’s war on Donald Trump will be lost.

Trump vs. CIA’s media lies



Quote:  "The Central Intelligence Agency owns everyone of any significance in the major media." -- William Colby, former CIA Director, cited by Dave Mcgowan, Derailing Democracy


The Sunday morning media talking heads had a synchronized message:  force Trump surrogates to say that the CIA’s “intelligence” report proves unequivocally that Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered a cyber-attack on the US election.  This is in spite of legions of ex-intelligence officers debunking these claims by the Director of National Intelligence, James Clapper who has lied under oath before congress in the past.  From US News:

Excerpt:

Lock Him Up? Lawmakers Renew Calls for James Clapper Perjury Charges

Some lawmakers reacted to the long-expected resignation announcement from Director of National Intelligence James Clapper on Thursday by wishing him an eventful retirement, featuring prosecution and possible prison time.

The passage of more than three years hasn’t cooled the insistence in certain quarters that Clapper face charges for an admittedly false statement to Congress in March 2013, when he responded, “No, sir" and "not wittingly” to a question about whether the National Security Agency was collecting “any type of data at all” on millions of Americans.

About three months after making that claim, documents leaked by former NSA contractor Edward Snowden revealed the answer was untruthful and that the NSA was in fact collecting in bulk domestic call records, along with various internet communications.

To his critics, Clapper lied under oath, a crime that threatens effective oversight of the executive branch.



Quote:  "For some time I have been disturbed by the way the CIA has been diverted from its original assignment. It has become an operational and at times a policy-making arm of the government.... I never had any thought that when I set up the CIA that it would be injected into peacetime cloak and dagger operations." --former President Harry Truman, 22 December 1963, one month after the JFK assassination, op-ed section of the Washington Post, early edition

The fact that the media is demanding President-elect Trump take the word of James Clapper as gospel that Vladimir Putin hacked the DNC computer to assist Trump in getting elected, is absolutely outrageous.  There has been no evidence to-date that Putin had anything to do with the hacking, or that hacking even occurred.   



Quote:  "The ideal form of government is democracy tempered with assassination." – Voltaire

However, even more shocking is Senate minority leader, Chuck Schumer intimating to Rachel Maddow that the CIA is plotting against President-elect Donald Trump for questioning their veracity.  From The Hill:

Excerpt:

New Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) said Tuesday that President-elect Donald Trump is “being really dumb” by taking on the intelligence community and its assessments on Russia’s cyber activities.

“Let me tell you, you take on the intelligence community, they have six ways from Sunday at getting back at you,” Schumer told MSNBC's Rachel Maddow.

“So even for a practical, supposedly hard-nosed businessman, he’s being really dumb to do this...”  Schumer said that as he understands, intelligence officials are "very upset with how [Trump] has treated them and talked about them."

Did New York Senator Chuck Schumer just say that the CIA is plotting against the President of the United States?  I wrote about the CIA’s threats against the American government in April of last year:

Excerpt:

Count Down to WWIII - The Bush Crime Family and the CIA Controlled Presidential Election

The CIA controls the duopoly in America and therefore controls the delegates who appoint the nominees for President of the United States of America.  What is happening in the 2016 election process is the unveiling of how dangerous and disgusting the CIA controlled process has become.

World War III has begun, it began when the American government was overthrown in 2000 and George W. Bush, son of George H.W. Bush the 41st President of the United States and former Director of the C.I.A. was installed as President.  To understand how we have come to this horrific point in time, one needs to review where it began.  From Sonic:



Excerpt:

Summary Of The Bush Crime Family* History

The most blatant initial historical record is when Grandpa Prescott Bush and some of his cronies tried to entice General Smedley Butler to muster enough World War I veterans to take over the Presidency of The United States in 1933.

Then again, in 1942 (a year after the U.S. joined World War II), Prescott Bush and this same cabal -- in their drive toward fascism -- were finally forced by the "Trading With the Enemy Act" to terminate their extensive business dealings with Hitler.

After WWII, this American branch of the Nazis didn't lose the war, they just transformed the battleground. They expanded their "connections" with Hitler's intelligence networks from The War into the formation of our own CIA.

It is also this same group that President Eisenhower opaquely identified as the "Military Industrial Complex," in his dark farewell speech to us. Later, it was Poppy George H.W. Bush who sat on a boat (named Barbara) off-shore and directed the Cuban Bay Of Pigs fiasco.

As a direct consequence of that largely unsolicited action, John Kennedy banished him and his CIA brothers from his administration, albeit only temporarily, as George H.W. Bush, then an active CIA agent, was later photographed in Dealey Plaza that sunny November day in 1963. 

From FDR to today, the Bush Crime Family and their fixated core of corporate fascists have, using unbridled corporate power, been tightening their grip on the throats of the American political, legal, economic and media systems

Quote:  As terrible as it is to live in a nation where the press in known to be controlled by the government, at least one has the advantage of knowing the bias is present, and to adjust for it. In the United States of America, we are taught from birth that our press is free from such government meddling. This is an insidious lie about the very nature of the news institution in this country. One that allows the government to lie to us while denying the very fact of the lie itself.—What really happened

What is happening in America today is a culmination of years of the CIA infiltrating and condensing media as part of the CIA’s Operation Mockingbird.  From What Really Happened:

Excerpt:



MOCKINGBIRD: The Subversion Of The Free Press By The CIA

Who Controls the Media?  Soulless corporations do, of course…  It is beginning to dawn on a growing number of armchair ombudsmen that the public print reports news from a parallel universe - one that has never heard of politically-motivated assassinations, CIA-Mafia banking thefts, mind control, death squads or even federal agencies with secret budgets fattened by cocaine sales - a place overrun by lone gunmen, where the CIA and Mafia are usually on their best behavior…  This unlikely land of enchantment is the creation of MOCKINGBIRD.

It was conceived in the late 1940s, the most frigid period of the cold war, when the CIA began a systematic infiltration of the corporate media, a process that often included direct takeover of major news outlets…  With or without the cooperation of local governments, Frank Wisner, an undercover State Department official assigned to the Foreign Service, rounded up students abroad to enter the cold war underground of covert operations on behalf of his Office of Policy Coordination.

Philip Graham, __a graduate of the Army Intelligence School in Harrisburg, PA, then publisher of the Washington Post., was taken under Wisner's wing to direct the program code-named Operation MOCKINGBIRD. 

"By the early 1950s," writes former Village Voice reporter Deborah Davis in Katharine the Great, "Wisner 'owned' respected members of the New York Times, Newsweek, CBS and other communications vehicles, plus stringers, four to six hundred in all, according to a former CIA analyst…"  Early MOCKINGBIRD influenced 25 newspapers and wire agencies consenting to act as organs of CIA propaganda.

But what is even more shocking is the dismissal by the Sunday morning talking heads of the failure of the FBI to stop the Fort Lauderdale airport shooter who shot 13 people.  From the Business Insider:

Excerpt:

The suspect in the Fort Lauderdale Airport shooting was known to the FBI

The man authorities believe shot 13 people, five of them fatally, at Fort Lauderdale International Airport on Friday was known to the FBI prior to carrying out the massacre, an FBI official said during a news conference Friday night.

FBI spokesman George Piro said the suspected assailant, 26-year-old Esteban Santiago, walked into an FBI office in Anchorage, Alaska, in November 2016 claiming voices in his head were telling him to join ISIS.  ISIS videos were apparently found on his computer, NBC's Pete Williams reported, citing federal officials.  

Piro, the FBI spokesman, said Santiago was taken into custody by local police in Anchorage and sent to a medical facility for an evaluation…  Santiago, who was born in New Jersey but moved to Puerto Rico with his family when he was 2 years old, served in Puerto Rico's National Guard and was deployed to Iraq in 2010… 

Santiago received a "general discharge" from the National Guard in August for "unsatisfactory performance," a lieutenant with the Alaska National Guard told CBS.  His aunt, who lives in New Jersey, told reporters that Santiago had started acting strangely when he returned from Iraq, and about a month ago "lost his mind…"

Santiago flew Delta from Anchorage, Alaska to Fort Lauderdale via Minneapolis-St. Paul on Thursday night, NBC reported. He arrived in Fort Lauderdale late Friday morning, which is when he apparently he used a gun he had checked into his luggage to carry out the massacre in the baggage claim area of Terminal 2.

Why wasn’t Santiago placed on a “no fly” list?  The failure of the FBI to stop terror attacks appears to be the “new normal” as far as the media is concerned.  It’s absolutely shocking that the billionaire owned media is far more interested in undermining President-elect Trump than in reporting on the failures of America’s intelligence agencies.  Not long ago I wrote in my blog about another terrorist known to the FBI who shot up the Pulse nightclub in another city in Florida, Orlando.


Excerpt:

Our Orwellian Government is stoking up the rhetoric pointing fingers at each other for not using the term, radical Islamists.  Don’t be fooled, the rhetoric is to divert our limited attention span from acknowledging the real terrorists in the American government.  The Orlando gunman was employed by a British based security contractor who was in charge of airport security at the three airports involved in the 911 attacks.  From Washington Blog:

Excerpt:

The shooting in Orlando on June 12th demonstrated features that were present in many recent terrorist acts. For example the suspect was quickly killed and the official account immediately attempted to blame the attacks on Islam. However, as with most terrorist suspects in the U.S., Omar Mateen had been closely followed by the FBI. He also worked for a company suspected of engaging in prior terrorist events. 

Mateen was well known to the FBI. In fact the Bureau had interviewed him several times and had evaluated his potential for terrorism on at least three occasions. This fact is noteworthy considering that both before 9/11, and since then, FBI leaders appear to have facilitated or manufactured terrorist acts. 

Although U.S. authorities claim that Mateen pledged allegiance to ISIS “in the midst of the attack,” Mateen’s family were surprised at the claim that he had any connection to a radical terrorist group. In fact, they said he was not particularly religious…  Mateen’s employer, G4S, has some interesting links to previous terrorist events. And it benefits from terrorism. 

Mateen worked for the British company G4S since 2007. Throughout that time, G4S has been what people might call a private, special operations military outfit. It is said to be three times the size of the British military. In 2012, a G4S employee was charged with making a bomb threat at the Olympics. Similar bomb threats were connected to G4S in 2013 and May 2016. 

Previously called Securicor, G4S PROVIDED SECURITY AT ALL THREE AIRPORTS AFFECTED BY THE 9/11 ATTACKS. Securicor/G4S had bought Argenbright Security—the 9/11 airport security firm—just nine months before the 9/11 attacks. The company later ran operations at Guantanamo Bay…

No one at the FBI appears to have been disciplined or even investigated for their failure to stop the Orlando nightclub attack.  These failures of the intelligence community are of no interest to the American media and that is criminal.  The media’s refusal to question the intelligence selectively fed to them is a greater threat to democratic elections than any alleged hacking or leaking.

Don’t forget, it was James Comey, the FBI Director who derailed Hillary Clinton’s campaign and it is he who should be answering questions before congress for election tampering.  From National Memo:

Excerpt:



Ethical Questions Surround FBI Director’s Decision On Email Probe

With a tweet that trumpeted “Case reopened,” Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-UT) set off a sustained roar of hyperbole about Hillary Clinton’s emails. As chair of the House Oversight Committee, Chaffetz and seven other Republican committee chairs — along with the ranking Democrats — received a very brief letter on Friday from FBI Director James Comey.

In three paragraphs, he informed them that while looking into “an unrelated case,” his agents had found “emails that appeared to be pertinent” to the Clinton server investigation. He had directed investigators to look at the emails, he wrote, and determine their significance…  Contrary to Chaffetz’s excited tweet, the FBI director’s letter did not indicate that the bureau has “reopened” its investigation of Clinton.

The emails in question were not found on Hillary Clinton’s email server, although some or all of them may be merely copies of emails previously examined by the FBI.  Those emails did not represent evidence intentionally withheld by Clinton from the FBI.  And there was no indication that those emails had prompted Comey to reconsider his July recommendation against prosecution, or his related conclusion that there was “no intentional misconduct” in the handling of evidence by Clinton and her lawyers…

But to protect himself, Comey decided to disclose the emails’ existence to the Congressional committee chairs within a day after learning of them himself, knowing that the Republicans would instantly exploit and distort that information for partisan purposes. (He knows that because Republican leaders distorted the facts to defame him.) Certainly he had no legal obligation to reveal the existence of the emails before he knew anything about them.

The FBI has been hunting the Clintons for over thirty years, first dispatching 200 agents to comb through every trailer park in Arkansas to dig up dirt on President Bill Clinton and most recently the partisan investigation of Hillary Clinton’s e-mails by Republican Director James Comey.

James Comey, who served in the Justice Department of George W. Bush, was appointed Director of the FBI by Barack Obama.  During Comey’s time in the Bush Administration, millions of e-mails were destroyed illegally, for which there was no FBI investigation.  From Newsweek:

Excerpt:

THE GEORGE W. BUSH WHITE HOUSE ‘LOST’ 22 MILLION EMAILS

For 18 months, Republican strategists, political pundits, reporters and Americans who follow them have been pursuing Hillary Clinton’s personal email habits, and no evidence of a crime has been found. But now they at least have the skills and interest to focus on a much larger and deeper email conspiracy, one involving war, lies, a private server run by the Republican Party and contempt of Congress citations—all of it still unsolved and unpunished.

Most troubling, researchers found a suspicious pattern in the White House email system blackouts, including periods when there were no emails available from the office of Vice President Dick Cheney. “That the vice president’s office, widely characterized as the most powerful vice president in history, should have no archived emails in its accounts for scores of days—especially days when there was discussion of whether to invade Iraq—beggared the imagination,” says Thomas Blanton, director of the Washington-based National Security Archive.

Perhaps Mr. Comey himself should be investigated for his possible participation in the scrubbing of the White House e-mails that took place in the Bush Administration.  But I digress. 

On this Monday, there are some in the media who are patting themselves on the back and claiming that President-elect Trump has finally caved and accepts the CIA’s claims that Putin hacked the election resulting in Trump’s win.  Really?  Did Trump accept the thin gruel proffered by the CIA as evidence?  From Steve Lendman:


Excerpt:

Does Trump Now Accept the Phony Russian Hacking Claim?

Since his Friday intelligence briefing, he hasn’t refuted his earlier assessment, debunking the notion. I check his tweets daily to see what he's saying.  No Russian hacking occurred. No evidence proves it. Yet on Fox News Sunday, his incoming White House chief of staff Reince Priebus said otherwise, accepting the fake news report as factual.

Was he speaking for himself alone? Or was he also stating what Trump now believes? The president-elect hasn’t said either way since Friday so it’s unknown… 

Former UK ambassador to Uzbekistan Craig Murray acted as an intermediary between one or more Democrat party insiders, passing on leaked DNC and John Podesta emails to WikiLeaks.  Interviewed on RT (Russia Today), he called Friday’s intelligence community report “hilarious…devoid of evidence…” 

“It seems such a mockery of what we’ve had, which is weeks and weeks of assertion without evidence. And it was so totally devoid of evidence, that I thought it must be a joke.”  Its “assertions…are factually untrue.” Its contents are “built on nothing.”  “The report asserts, for example, that President Putin must have ordered the hacking. It doesn’t say that the hacking of the election or influencing actually happened…”

It’s intentionally provocative, wanting Trump’s election delegitimized, adversarial relations toward Russia continued, increasing the risk of US-initiated confrontation.  Murray correctly said a report this obviously fabricated could only have been issued, knowing Western media would support it unquestionably.

No sensible person would buy the rubbish in it. Media scoundrels accepting it are the same ones buying phony accusations about nonexistent Saddam’s WMDs in the run-up to US-led aggression, the same ones one-sidedly supporting Hillary, the same ones still bashing Trump.  What it all comes down to is wanting America’s imperial agenda continued - responsible for endless wars on humanity at home and abroad.

Heavy pressure is on Trump to maintain the status quo or risk removal from office by impeachment or more sinister means.

As the hearings to confirm Trump’s cabinet commence, the media continues to push the false narrative that Russia hacked the US election and the FBI’s investigation of Hillary’s e-mail reveal criminality.  The only thing we can believe from the mainstream media is, anything they say is a lie.  

The biggest lie of all is America has a free press that works as a watchdog for the people.  The watchdog is dead and has been replaced with a CIA trained lapdog.  The next four years will be a battle of Trump vs. the CIA’s “intelligence.”

Obama spreads chaos for Trump, Netanyahu and Putin


In this world, it is often dangerous to be an enemy of the United States, but to be a friend is fatal… Henry Kissinger 1968

Wise words indeed Mr. Kissinger and boy are they relevant today.  President Barack Obama is stirring up disruption and chaos across the globe in what appears a last ditch effort to lash out against Russian President Putin.  If anyone ever truly deserved the Nobel Peace Prize, it would be Vladimir Putin.  Putin is the only thing standing between the neocons and WWIII, the last thing on their bucket list before they go.


For the last sixteen years the same PNAC members have run the CIA and the State Department.  Hillary Clinton offered more of the same, chaos.  An exhausted American people voted for change.  From Helga Zepp-LaRouche:


Excerpt:

… there is, right now, a global revolution against the system of globalization underway…   I think the first massive manifestation was the Brexit last June in Great Britain, where the majority of the people voted to leave the European Union.

The second major manifestation of this was the rejection of Hillary Clinton, and with that, also a rejection of the policies of the 16-year U.S. Presidencies of Bush and Cheney and Obama, because Obama was really the total continuation of the previous policies of Bush and Cheney…

And then, the newest, third vector of development, which is completely undetermined yet as to where it will go—but nevertheless it is a completely new thing—is the election of Donald Trump to be the next President of the United States…  Up to the present day, the neocon-dominated media in the trans-Atlantic sector are really not grappling with the situation that there is a new U.S. President…

Now, what Trump did, which I think is the most important—the moment he got elected he got on the phone and he talked to Russian President Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping, and all sides afterwards confirmed that the intention was to normalize and improve the relationship between the United States and Russia, and the United States and China… 

Because it is now Dec. 12th, and it is still five or six weeks until Trump gets into the White House, and you can see very clearly that Obama is trying to create as much chaos on the way out of the White House as he possibly can…  He just made a decree where he basically ordered the arming of the rebels in Syria, including providing them with so-called MANPADs, that is shoulder-fired missiles which can shoot down planes; which could really also shoot down American planes, or other planes, so it’s a very incredible thing.

And I think it’s very important that Trump is completely opposed to this. And so is Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, who is a very young, talented congresswoman from Hawaii, who introduced a bill in reaction to this—she’s from the Democratic Party—but she introduced a bill prohibiting arms sales to such rebel groups and is leading a bipartisan effort to this effect…

There is also the effort by the neocons to ruin the relationship with Russia and China in the remaining period as much as possible. For example, the neocon Heritage Foundation in the United States sent a delegation in October to Taiwan. This was Ed Feulner and Stephen Yates, who used to be the national security aide to Dick Cheney, and Reince Priebus, the new member of the Trump team.

They went to Taiwan; and this was coordinated with the effort by the Taiwanese government to use the incoming new Presidency to change the “One China” policy…  And it was that combination of Heritage plus lobbyists, who arranged the phone call of Taiwanese President Tsai with Trump, congratulating Trump for his election. And Trump took the phone call, and this was then made a big affair by the international media, because this violated the One China policy.

Yes, Obama and his neocon cabal won’t go gently into the night.  The Bush/Obama Administrations have left rubble in their wake.  The complete demolition of Syria, reported in America as “a civil war against a brutal dictator,” is a graphic example of what Kissinger referred to as the “danger of being an enemy of the United States.”  Helga Zepp-LaRouche is absolutely correct about the current Administration, they are “trying to create as much chaos on the way out that they possibly can”. 



Think about what will happen in Syria when Obama-armed terrorists with shoulder-fired missiles shoot down a NATO plane or worse yet, an American passenger plane causing an international crises for the Trump Administration.  Thanks to Putin, the neocons suffered a major humiliation in Aleppo and they are going nuts.  From Information Clearinghouse:

Liberation of Aleppo Represents US's Most Serious Setback in 15 Years

In late 2016, at the cost of many young lives, Syrian forces took back the eastern part of the city of Aleppo, occupied by NATO and Saudi backed terrorists for more than four years.

The liberation of Aleppo, Syria’s second city and an ancient marvel, represents the most serious setback for the 15-year long Washington-led aggression on the entire region. An effective re-colonization of the region has stretched from Afghanistan to Libya, under a range of false pretexts. Invasions and proxy wars have been backed by economic sanctions and wild propaganda.

But this great war of aggression – called the creation of ‘New Middle East’ by former US President George W. Bush – has hit a rock in Syria.  The massive proxy armies bought and equipped by Washington and its regional allies the Saudis, Turkey, Qatar and Israel, have been beaten back by a powerful regional alliance which supports the Syrian nation.


If you are wondering who “the massive proxy armies” are and where they come from check out this article in Southfront.org:

BREAKING: 14 US-LED COALITION MILITARY ADVISERS CAPTURED BY SYRIAN SPECIAL FORCES IN ALEPPO

At least 14 US-led coalition military advisers have been captured by the Syrian Special Forces in a bunker in the city of Aleppo, according to media reports.  The event allegedly took place in the morning on December 16, 2016 (Voltaire.net)…

Fares Shehabi, a prominent Syrian Parliamentarian and head of Aleppo’s Chamber of Commerce published the names of the Coalition officers on his Facebook page on the 15th December (emphasis added):

·        Mutaz KanoÄŸlu – Turkey
·        David Scott Winer – USA
·        David Shlomo Aram – Israel
·        Muhamad Tamimi – Qatar
·        Muhamad Ahmad Assabian – Saudi
·        Abd-el-Menham Fahd al Harij – Saudi
·        Islam Salam Ezzahran Al Hajlan – Saudi
·        Ahmed Ben Naoufel Al Darij – Saudi
·        Muhamad Hassan Al Sabihi – Saudi
·        Hamad Fahad Al Dousri – Saudi
·        Amjad Qassem Al Tiraoui – Jordan
·        Qassem Saad Al Shamry – Saudi
·        Ayman Qassem Al Thahalbi – Saudi
·        Mohamed Ech-Chafihi El Idrissi – Moroccan…

… Considering that US-led coalition military advisers have been widely operating across Syria, training and assisting to the so-called “moderate opposition” openly linked with al-Qaeda, the recently appeared reports are likely true.

For instance, British military advisers have officially arrived to Syria to restore combat capability of the ‘moderate’ opposition, retreated from Aleppo:

Are you comfortable with the Obama Administration arming a mostly Saudi militia in Syria with shoulder fired missiles, capable of shooting down planes?  Now Obama is fighting the Trump transition into the White House.  While Obama spreads chaos and lies Trump is conveying a message of stability, “help is on the way.” 

The Obama Administration is perpetuating the myth that Vladimir Putin somehow interfered with our election, and now has imposed sanctions against Russia and expelled their diplomats.  So far Putin has said, Russia will pretty much ignore Obama’s sanctions and wait until America has an adult in the room meaning Donald Trump.  From YouTube:

Excerpt:

U.S. President-elect Donald Trump on Wednesday suggested that the United States should just get over Russia's hacking of DNC computers, saying, "We ought to get on with our lives." According to Reuters, two U.S. officials said the Obama administration plans to announce a series of retaliatory measures against Russia for hacking into U.S. political institutions…   Trump made his remarks at Mar-a-Lago, his seaside Florida resort. Trump explained, "I think that computers have complicated lives very greatly. The whole age of computer has made it where nobody knows exactly what's going on."



And how did Vladimir Putin react to Obama rounding up their diplomats and their families and removing them from our country?  From The Guardian:

Excerpt:

Putin says he's waiting for Trump as he opts not to expel US diplomats

Vladimir Putin has refused to engage in tit-for-tat diplomacy after the US expelled 35 Russian diplomats amid a row over cyber hacking.

Just hours after the Russian foreign minster said he was recommending a symmetrical response, Putin said his country had “every right” to make such a move but that he would not “drop to this level of irresponsible diplomacy”.
He said his government would instead wait to see how relations developed under the incoming president, Donald Trump.

“We will make further steps to help resurrect Russian-American relations based on the policies that the administration of Trump will pursue,” the Russian president said in a statement on the Kremlin’s website.

Putin, mindful that Trump will be in the White House in just three weeks went on, in an almost teasing way, to wish Barack Obama and his family, Trump and the American people a happy new year. He invited “all the children of American diplomats accredited in Russia to the New Year and Christmas celebrations in the Kremlin”.

It’s a message the people need to hear because the people have lost their faith in our intelligence operations.  It is becoming apparent that terror attacks come at some very convenient times, like the assassination of Russia’s ambassador just before a peace agreement.  From Global Research:
Excerpt:

Were “CIA Dirty Hands” Behind Assassination of Russia’s Ambassador to Turkey?

The assassination happened in the wake of Aleppo’s liberation, a major defeat for Washington, NATO, Israel, Saudi Arabia and Qatar.  It came on the eve of Russian, Turkish and Iranian foreign ministers meeting in Moscow (America, Britain and France excluded) “to discuss in trilateral format the situation in and around Syria first and foremost,” Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Mikhail Bogdanov explained…

Separately, Turkish President Erdogan said “(w)e are determined to maintain our ties with Russia.”  Karlov’s strategically timed assassination was likely aimed at undermining Russian/Turkish relations – especially after Aleppo’s liberation and US electors confirming Trump’s triumph.  The provocative scheme seems destined to fail as decisively as the campaign to deny America’s president-elect the office he won.

After the failed CIA coup against America’s friend Turkish President Erdogan, Turkey seems to be reevaluating their “friendship” with America as well as forging a new one with Russia.  It appears that America’s friends, are getting the full Obama treatment.  Obama is willing to sacrifice friend or foe to settle his petty vendetta against Putin, something Netanyahu saw firsthand.  From Lidblog:

Nyet!! Russia REJECTS Kerry’s Attempt To Impose Middle East Solution

Calling it an attempt to bring the US Domestic agenda to the UN, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov rejected John Kerry’s proposal to impose a Middle East solution on Israel in a telephone conversation Tuesday, with U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry…

“The two top diplomats exchanged views on the situation in the Palestinian-Israeli settlement and around it. Lavrov stressed the necessity of creating conditions for direct talks between the leaders of Israel and Palestine and warned against bringing US’ domestic agenda into the work of the Middle East Quartet and the United Nations Security Council. He stressed that attempts to use these formats in bickering between the Democrats and Republicans are harmful,” the Russian foreign ministry said.

Man, the Obama Administration has made such a mess with an unbelievable human cost.  How would Trump ever clean up this mess?  Patrick Buchanan has some suggestions.    From Lew Rockwell:


Excerpt:

Will Trump Defy McCain & Marco?

When word leaked that Exxon CEO Rex Tillerson, a holder of the Order of Friendship award in Putin’s Russia, was Donald Trump’s choice for secretary of state, John McCain had this thoughtful response:  “Vladimir Putin is a thug, a bully, and a murderer and anybody else who describes him as anything else is lying.”

Yet, Putin is something else, the leader of the largest nation on earth, a great power with enough nuclear weapons to wipe the United States off the face of the earth. And we have to deal with him…  If just three GOP senators vote no on Tillerson, and Democrats vote as a bloc against him, his nomination would go down. President Trump would sustain a major and humiliating defeat.

Who is Tillerson? A corporate titan, he has traveled the world, represented Exxon in 60 countries, is on a first-name basis with countless leaders…  Most businessmen are interested in doing deals, making money, and, if the terms are not met, walking away, not starting a war.

And here is the heart of the objection to Tillerson. He wants to end sanctions and partner with Putin’s Russia, as does Trump. But among many in the mainstream media, think tanks, websites, and on the Hill, this is craven appeasement. For such as these, the Cold War is never over.

Behind the effort to smear Tillerson and delegitimize Trump lies a larger motive. Trump has antagonists in both parties who alarmed at his triumph because it imperils the foreign policy agenda that is their raison d’etre, their reason for being…

They want to provide offensive weapons to Kiev to reignite the civil war in the Donbass and enable Ukraine to move on Crimea. This would mean a war with Russia that Ukraine would lose and we and our NATO allies would be called upon to intervene in and fight.

Their goal is to bring down Putin and bring about “regime change” in Moscow.

In the campaign, Trump said he wanted to get along with Russia, to support all the forces inside Syria and Iraq fighting to wipe out ISIS and al-Qaida and to stay out of any new Middle East wars — like the disaster in Iraq — that have cost us “six trillion dollars.”

THIS IS WHAT AMERICA VOTED FOR WHEN IT VOTED FOR TRUMP — to put America First and “make America great again.” But War Party agitators are already beating the drums for a confrontation with Iran.

Early in his presidency, if not before, Trump is going to have to impose his foreign policy upon his own party and, indeed, upon his own government

A good place to begin is by accepting the McCain-Marco challenge and nominating Rex Tillerson for secretary of state. Let’s get it on.



Amen brother Buchanan.  But not only are the neocons interfering with the smooth transition of power in America, now they’re interfering with the election in France:  From the Telegraph:

Excerpt:

American intelligence has been asked to look into Marine Le Pen's links to Russia, following her request for a $30 million (£24.3 million) loan to help fund her French presidential campaign from a bank close to Vladimir Putin, according to reports.

Ms Le Pen's Front National party has made no secret of the fact that it has taken foreign loans to help bankroll its presidential campaigns because, it has argued, French banks refuse to stump up the funds.  But in light of allegations of Russian interference in the US election of Donald Trump, scrutiny has now turned to Ms Le Pen, who is polled to reach the final round of France's presidential elections in May…

In May, Le Pen said in an interview that she will recognise Crimea as Russian territory if she wins the French presidency…"  Earlier this month, the CIA concluded in a secret assessment that Russia intervened in the 2016 election to help Mr Trump win the presidency, rather than just to undermine confidence in the US electoral system.

Sounds like the CIA and Obama’s problem with Le Pen is her attitude toward Putin and Russia.  So our CIA is getting involved with the French election, just like they did in Ukraine, Argentina and Brazil.  And it’s amazing they fail to see their own Hipocracy in accusing Russia of interfering with US elections.  From No Quarter:

Obama, A Drunken Sailor Throwing Girly Man Punches at Putin?

Thank God we only have three weeks left of this cretin. Yes, I think Obama is a cretin, a fool and childish to boot. One week ago he gave the green light to betray Israel…  Now we have the latest twist in this manufactured drama–Obama is expelling Russian diplomats (some who almost certainly are intelligence officers) and imposing new sanctions on two individuals and four different entities.

This is a bizarre action given that Obama was waiting on the Intel Community to report on what actually happened. Remember this?

“The President has directed the Intelligence Community to conduct a full review of what happened during the 2016 election process. It is to capture lessons learned from that and to report to a range of stakeholders,”

Hell, why wait for a report. Let’s just go with a gut feeling. Obama is now behaving very much like a drunk who is angered after last call at a bar that he can’t get another shot of whiskey. Rather than quietly shuffle out the door and head for home, Obama has decided to throw drunken punches and smash furniture. He is leaving the bar in worst shape then when he came in the door.

These sanctions help Putin rather than hurt him. They coincide with the news that Russia and Turkey, with the cooperation of the Syrian Government, are implementing a ceasefire in Syria today. Whether connected on not, the U.S. action will be viewed in Russia as pique by a weak, frustrated foe…

But this is a dangerous action by Obama. It comes in concert with steps by NATO to put more Western troops on the border of Russia. It comes with increased bellicose calls by leading Republicans like Senators McCain and Graham for confrontation with Russia…

It is important that someone on the Trump team reach out to Putin via back channel and assure them that there is a genuine desire to restore civil relations with Russia. Obama’s real target in these sanctions is Donald Trump. He is trying to box Trump in and force him into the failed, hostile relationship that Obama produced. I am hoping that Trump stands his ground and starts dealing with Russia like an adult.


Let us remember the words of Henry Kissinger,

In this world, it is often dangerous to be an enemy of the United States, but to be a friend is fatal… Henry Kissinger 1968


Caution:  being friends with America can be fatal.  Obama and his neocons are hell bent on leaving the world in a chaotic mess that will take Trump four years to sort out.  Then, after four years of undermining the Trump Administration, America and her Treasury will be returned to the neocons.

I predict that Trump is not going to be any kind of pushover and the neocons have a rude awakening in store for them.  The world is moving on toward peace and cooperation.  The New World Order ushered in by George W. Bush is dead.  For the love of God, Obama, Biden, Dems and GOP take Donald Trump’s advice, “we need to get on with our lives, get over it.”
