Anti-Trump strategy has shifted.

After a year and a half of finding no evidence of a collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia, the Democrats ran the risk of acting like demented buffoons, so they changed strategy. First, they have pulled out the well worn strategy of 'finding' women willing to swear they had affairs with Trump. That did not go anywhere. So, the next change was to attack Trump by sifting through his business dealings.

Mueller and his henchmen are forging new paths to dismantling America's judicial system in order to pursue their goal of unseating Trump. I refer to the Gestapo-like raid on the office of Trump's lawyer to seize his papers. Lawyer-client privilege is now gone in the pursuit of Trump.

In order to produce a camouflage of legality, the Mueller henchmen went to a Clinton appointee of Judge Kimba Wood (the person Bill Clinton tried to appoint as Attorney General)  and she dutifully let Mueller's Gestapo  sift through all of the records of Cohen (Trump's attorney) to see which paper falls under Attorney-Client privilege. Of course, Herr Mueller's thugs get to copy all of them. WHAT A FARCE!

To protect their achievement of remaking America, a federal judge told Trump that DACA must be reinstated (even though it ran out). The reason? No real reason. The Judge just want to keep all those Democrats.

The DOJ, IRS and FBI Swamp.


Here is the center of the Swamp.

 

 

From 2001 to 2005 there was an ongoing investigation into the Clinton

Foundation.

 

A Grand Jury had been empaneled.

 

Governments from around the world had donated to the ³Charity².

 

Yet, from 2001 to 2003 none of those ³Donations² to the Clinton

Foundation were declared.

 

Hmmm, now you would think that an honest investigator would be able to

figure this out.

 

Guess who took over this investigation in 2002?

 

Bet you can¹t guess.

 

No other than James Comey.

 

Now, that¹s interesting, isn¹t it?

 

Guess who was transferred in to the Internal Revenue Service to run

the Tax Exemption Branch of the IRS?

 

Your friend and mine,Lois ³Be on The Look Out² (BOLO) Lerner.

 

Now, that¹s interesting, isn¹t it?

 

It gets better, well not really, but this is all just a series of

strange coincidences, right?

 

Guess who ran the Tax Division inside the Department of Injustice from

2001 to 2005?

 

No other than the Assistant Attorney General of the United States, Rod

Rosenstein.

 

Now, that¹s interesting, isn¹t it?

 

Guess who was the Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation

during this timeframe???

 

I know, it¹s a miracle, just a coincidence, just an anomaly in

statistics and chances, Robert Mueller.

 

What do all four casting characters have in common?

 

They all were briefed and/or were front line investigators into the

Clinton Foundation Investigation.

 

Now that¹s just a coincidence, right?

 

Ok, lets chalk the last one up to mere chance.

 

Let¹s fast forward to 2009.

 

James Comey leaves the Justice Department to go and cash-in at Lockheed

Martin.

 

Hillary Clinton is running the State Department, on her own personal

email server by the way.

 

The Uranium One ³issue² comes to the attention of the Hillary.

 

Like all good public servants do, you know looking out for America¹s

best interest, she decides to support the decision and approve the

sale of 20% of US Uranium to no other than, the Russians.

 

Now you would think that this is a fairly straight up deal, except it

wasn¹t, the People got absolutely nothing out of it.

 

However, prior to the sales approval, no other than Bill Clinton goes

to Moscow, gets paid 500K for a one hour speech then meets with

Vladimir Putin at his home for a few hours.

 

Ok, no big deal right?

 

Well, not so fast, the FBI had a mole inside the money laundering and

bribery scheme.

 

Guess who was the FBI Director during this timeframe?

 

Yep, Robert Mueller.

 

He even delivered a Uranium Sample to Moscow in 2009.

 

Guess who was handling that case within the Justice Department out of

the US Attorney¹s Office in Maryland.

 

No other than, Rod Rosenstein.

 

Guess what happened to the informant?

 

The Department of Justice placed a GAG order on him and threatened to

lock him up if he spoke out about it.

 

How does 20% of the most strategic asset of the United States of

America end up in Russian hands when the FBI has an informant, a mole

providing inside information to the FBI on the criminal enterprise?

 

Guess what happened soon after the sale was approved?

 

~145 million dollars in ³donations² made their way into the Clinton

Foundation from entities directly connected to the Uranium One deal.

 

Guess who was still at the Internal Revenue Service working the

Charitable Division?

 

No other than, Lois  Lerner.

 

Ok, that¹s all just another series of coincidences, nothing to see here,

right?

 

Let¹s fast forward to 2015.

 

Due to a series of tragic events in Benghazi and after the 9

³investigations² the House, Senate and at State Department, Trey Gowdy

who was running the 10th investigation as Chairman of the Select

Committee on Benghazi discovers that the Hillary ran the State

Department on an unclassified, unauthorized, outlaw personal email

server.

 

He also discovered that none of those emails had been turned over when

she departed her ³Public Service² as Secretary of State which was

required by law.

 

He also discovered that there was Top Secret information contained

within her personally archived email.

 

Sparing you the State Departments cover up, the nostrums they floated,

the delay tactics that were employed and the outright lies that were

spewed forth from the necks of the Kerry State Department, we shall

leave it with this: they did everything humanly possible to cover for

Hillary.

 

Now this is amazing, guess who became FBI Director in 2013?

 

Guess who secured 17 no bid contracts for his employer (Lockheed

Martin) with the State Department and was rewarded with a six million

dollar thank you present when he departed his employer.

 

No other than James Comey.

 

Amazing how all those no-bids just went right through at State, huh?

 

Now he is the FBI Director in charge of the ³Clinton Email

Investigation² after of course his FBI Investigates the Lois Lerner

³Matter² at the Internal Revenue Service and exonerates her.

 

Nope couldn¹t find any crimes there.

 

Can you guess what happened next?

 

In April 2016, James Comey drafts an exoneration letter of Hillary

Rodham Clinton, meanwhile the DOJ is handing out immunity deals like

candy.

 

They didn¹t even convene a Grand Jury.

 

Like a lightning bolt of statistical impossibility, like a miracle

from God himself, like the true ³Gangsta² Homey is, James steps out

into the cameras of an awaiting press conference on July the 8th of

2016, and exonerates the Hillary from any wrongdoing.

 

Can you see the pattern?

 

It goes on and  on, Rosenstein becomes Asst. Attorney General, Comey

gets fired based upon a letter by Rosenstein, Comey leaks government

information to the press, Mueller is assigned to the Russian

Investigation sham by Rosenstein to provide cover for decades of

malfeasance within the FBI and DOJ and the story continues.

 

FISA Abuse, political espionage - pick a crime, any crime, chances

are...... this group and a few others did it.

 

All the same players.

 

All compromised and conflicted.

 

All working fervently to NOT go to jail themselves.

 

All connected in one way or another to the Clinton's.

 

They are like battery acid, they corrode and corrupt everything they

touch.

 

How many lives have these two destroyed?

 

As of this writing, the Clinton Foundation, in its 20+ years of

operation of being the largest International Charity Fraud in the

history of mankind, has never been audited by the Internal Revenue

Service.

Let us not forget that Comey's brother works for DLA Piper, the law

firm that does the Clinton Foundation's taxes.

The worst foursome in golf.


WORST FOURSOME IN GOLF HISTORY

 

1. STORMY DANIELS

2. O. J. SIMPSON

3. TED KENNEDY

4. BILL CLINTON

 

WHY ?  YOU ASK

 

1. STORMY  IS A HOOKER.

2. O. J. IS A SLICER.

3. TED CAN'T DRIVE OVER WATER, and

4. BILL CAN'T REMEMBER WHICH HOLE HE PLAYED LAST.

Deep State misguides Trump to pave the way for Satan's Army.

https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-04-17/famed-war-reporter-robert-fisk-reaches-syrian-chemical-attack-site-concludes-they

faked the gas attack. Actually, the fatalities occurred from the bombardment collapsing some of the tunnels built by  the Alewite (Shiite) prisoners captured by the Jihadis and kept in the tunnels.

Pres Trump called Bashir Assad an animal and he is right. A Muslim ruler can keep order only by brute force. When that force or the Ruler is destabilized, civil war and mass slaughter ensues. We saw this in Lebanon, Iraq, Lybia  and now Syria.

The Deep State is guiding Trump to alienate Russia, so the Russians ally with Iran as the forces of the Devil get ready to march on the plain of Megiddo.  The road leads through Syria and Lebanon.

Special Prosecutorial Abuse

COMMENTARY

We’re supposed to be reassured that the FBI agents who raided the offices and home of Donald Trump’s personal lawyer, Michael A. Cohen, were, in Cohen’s words, “courteous” and “respectful.”
The president’s attorney was understandably grateful that the agents didn’t replicate the FBI’s tactics at the home of Paul Manafort, Trump’s onetime campaign manager. Busting in before dawn, guns drawn, with a “no knock” warrant while Manafort and his wife were in bed, the agents frisked Mrs. Manafort while she was still in her nightclothes.
Perhaps Cohen thinks if he sounds reasonable, he can appease Robert Mueller, the special prosecutor who ordered Manafort’s arrest, or his other federal prosecutors behind this raid. Or maybe Cohen simply developed the quickest case of Stockholm syndrome in history. Whatever his reasons, a line has been violated. The government is going after lawyers now, as part of an investigation that feels as though policy differences and partisan politics have been criminalized.
Since the day Trump entered political life, liberals, Democratic activists, and media pundits have issued ominous warnings about the coming authoritarianism. When Trump shocked his critics by winning the presidency, this alarm became a crescendo. The “f” word was bandied about: Fascism, we were admonished, was in our future if we didn’t “resist” this presidency.
The resistance has taken many forms: marches and school walkouts; myriad lawsuits against the president; the refusal by Senate Democrats to vote in favor of administration Cabinet nominees; sustained attacks on those appointees who were confirmed; national ad campaigns demanding impeachment; showy resignations from career foreign service officers; leaks of national security information by Obama administration officials; and the suspension of journalistic objectivity by entire news organizations.
It hasn’t been pretty, but no one ever said democracy was tidy. It’s not unprecedented, either: It feels like the late 1960s and early 1970. When it comes to the Justice Department crusade against Trump, however, one has to go back a century in American history to find anything comparable. The liberals worried about a police state? In some respects, it feels as though it’s already here. This is not Donald Trump’s fault. It’s the handiwork of his opponents -- with the complicity of the nation’s federal law enforcement apparatus.
Russian interference in the 2016 election became the story line immediately after the votes were counted. Then, at his Senate confirmation hearing, Jeff Sessions was asked by Minnesota Sen. Al Franken whether as attorney general Sessions would act forcefully if confronted with evidence of Russian adventurism in U.S. campaigns. Yes, Sessions said, he would. He then volunteered that he’d never met with any Russians. When it turned out that Sessions had met at least once with the Russian ambassador to the U.S., he recused himself from the whole mess.
Yet, FBI Director James Comey was pressing ahead with his own investigation – right until he was fired by Trump. This led to Comey’s own conspiracy. He leaked FBI documents to a pal who gave them to the New York Times, all with the goal of getting a special prosecutor appointed. Comey subsequently bragged about these machinations, although it’s never been explained how Mueller, a former FBI director and political ally of Comey’s, was given that appointment. Mueller’s conflict of interest seemed more obvious than Jeff Sessions’ did. In any event, Mueller then did what many previous special prosecutors have done: He quickly took the probe far afield from his original mandate.
Paul Manafort was indicted for alleged financial chicanery that had nothing to do with Russian hacking and which involved business practices that occurred years before he met Donald Trump. Ditto for Manafort deputy Rick Gates, as well as Gates’ Dutch attorney, the first lawyer Mueller went after.
It’s true that Mueller has run a parallel investigation looking at Russia, which resulted in the indictment of 13 Russians computer hackers. But were those indictments a cover story for a prosecutor actually hell-bent on nailing Trump? Putin is unlikely to extradite those Russians. The real target of this investigation is the president of the United States.
According to news leaks that apparently come from Mueller’s hand-picked prosecutorial staff, which is stacked with Democrat Party donors, the records seized in the FBI raid of Michael Cohen concern the payoffs made to porn film performer Stormy Daniels and Playboy centerfield Karen McDougal. Both women claim a 2006 sexual relationship with Donald Trump. Both women took money to keep quiet. Both are now singing like canaries -- and suing Trump to boot.
So, he’s the victim, albeit not a very sympathetic one, right? Nope. The Justice Department reportedly seized Cohen’s files on the grounds that paying these women off in 2016 was some sort of election finance violation. That’s a legal theory so pedantic, so goofy, really, that one would think it came from Twitter -- or whatever online listserv replaced the notorious “journo-list” chatroom where liberal members of the media and Democratic Party operatives exchanged talking points. So let’s put this down there where the goats can get it: When a married man who is worth several billion dollars funnels a couple of hundred grand through his lawyer to two women threatening to rat him out for past indiscretions, that’s not a campaign contribution. That’s common sense.
Put it this way: Yes, the feds put Al Capone in Alcatraz for tax evasion. But they didn’t nail him for jaywalking.
If the FBI and the Justice Department adhere to their familiar playbook, they’ll threaten (or indict) Cohen on charges relating to “mail fraud” or “wire fraud.” In plain English, what this means is that a defendant used modern banking or communications technology to do his business. The FBI has employed this dubious tactic for years. When it’s most troubling is when it’s invoked for underlying activity that isn’t specifically illegal. This is what the bureau is doing in the burgeoning NCAA basketball scandal. It seems that coaches, alums, university boosters, and athletic shoe companies are paying kids under the table to play college hoops. Although this is a violation of NCAA regulations, it is not a federal crime. The FBI is pursuing it anyway.
So far, there has been little public outcry about the overzealous law enforcement emanating from Washington. Any uproar has been limited to the subject of Russia’s election interference. A century ago, the Justice Department also went through a period in which it relied on the corrupting stimulant of public opinion to overreach. In the wake of fears about the communist revolution that swept Russia, U.S. Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer ordered a series of raids on politicians and activists who held unpopular views. The targets then were leftists, including previous Socialist Party presidential candidate Eugene Debs. He was imprisoned for treason -- for speaking out against World War I.
The Palmer Raids, as they were known, begat the ACLU. I grew up in a family where that organization was respected and where Gene Debs was a household name. My mother once described Debs to me matter-of-factly as a political prisoner. Today’s ACLU doesn’t defend Donald Trump from prosecutorial overreach. It’s now a partisan organization unconcerned with due process. On its website, you’ll be met with a solicitation: “Donate monthly to fight Trump’s attacks on people’s rights.”
Okay, but what about the FBI’s attacks on Trump’s right to legal counsel -- and, by implication, the rights of the rest of us? Because if they can do it to his lawyer, they can do it to yours. Do the ends justify the means? Or do we live by rule of law? Choose one.

German collusion with Iran and Hezbollah.

Caroline Glick: Germany Abets a New World War

Syrian President Bashar Assad is not an independent actor. The Assad regime owes its existence to Iran and Russia.

Bashar Assad would never have carried out his April 7 chemical weapons attack against rebel forces and their families in Douma, outside Damascus, if he hadn’t received a green light from Russia and operational assistance and permission from Iran.
As a result, by sidestepping Russian and Iranian assets in Syria, President Donald Trump’s precision strike in retaliation for Syria’s chemical weapons attack may have little strategic significance.
As Israel noted Thursday, Iran is specifically responsible for the violence in Syria. And as Trump gets his new foreign policy team set up, with his Secretary of State-designate Mike Pompeo awaiting Senate confirmation, the threat Iran poses to US national security and strategic interests is rapidly expanding.
Not only is Iran the power behind the man Trump referred to as a “Gas Killing Animal who kills his people and enjoys it.” Iran is the most acute threat to the nuclear peace that has held since the end of World War II.
On April 9, Iran celebrated “Nuclear Day.” Regime officials, including President Hassan Rouhani, threatened the U.S., saying that if America abandons the so-called Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), better known as the Iran nuclear deal, then Iran can restore uranium enrichment to weapons grade levels within two days.
These threats underscore the point, made repeatedly by nuclear watchdogs and nuclear deal opponents, that under the nuclear deal, Iran has expanded its nuclear capabilities.
With the May 12 deadline set by President Trump for the U.S. and its allies to improve the Iran deal, the U.S. and its European allies have less than a month to agree on new provisions that can make the deal worth retaining.
During his Senate confirmation hearing this week, Pompeo said that the Trump administration prefers to amend the deal in a manner that would satisfy U.S. requirements, but the U.S. will consider other actions if it cannot be adequately improved.
In his words, “I want to fix this deal; that’s the objective. In the event that we conclude we can’t fix this deal … then the president is going to be given the best advice, including by me. If there’s no chance that we can fix it, I will recommend to the president that we do our level best to work with our allies to achieve a better outcome and a better deal.”
In his written testimony to the Senate, Pompeo noted that Iran’s illicit nuclear program is just one of many ways that Iran’s actions threaten America and its allies.
In his words, “We cannot let the nuclear file prevent us from acting against Iran’s cyber efforts or its attempts to provide missiles to the Houthis [in Yemen] to attack Saudi Arabia and Americans who travel there. Iran’s activities in Syria, Iraq and Lebanon threaten the very existence of Israel, and the global reach of Hezbollah threatens us right here in the homeland.”
Distressingly, one of the key parties blocking U.S. efforts to curb Iranian capabilities in all areas is one of America’s closest allies: Germany.
Although Germany is a member of NATO and is perceived as a loyal U.S. ally, in practice, Germany is one of Iran’s most powerful protectors and promoters.
For the past several weeks, administration officials have told reporters that Germany is selling Iran technology that Iran is using to help the Assad regime replenish its chemical weapons stocks.
Last week, the Jerusalem Post reported that the Germany’s Krempel Group provided components found on the Iranian rockets used by the Syrian regime in its chemical attack in Douma.
The German government refused to comment on Krempel’s apparent contribution to Assad’s deployment of chemical weapons against civilians.
As for the nuclear deal with Iran, according to administration officials involved in negotiations with the Europeans to amend the deal, Germany is the principle obstacle to substantive changes to the agreement.
According a report in the Washington Free Beacon, a U.S. official said that Germany refuses to agree to apply sanctions against Iran for its development of ballistic weapons.
Rather than sanctioning Iran for its ballistic missile development, which the administration has determined violates the spirit of the agreement as well as binding UN Security Council resolutions, according to the administration official, “the Germans say the West should simply keep waiving sanctions and offer to negotiate with Iran on its missile program by offering the regime more economic incentives in exchange for JCPOA-like concessions on the missiles.”
As for Hezbollah, Germany has stopped Europe from taking more decisive action.
As Benjamin Weinthal from the Foundation for Defense of Democracies has noted, Germany for years blocked efforts by European Union members, particularly the Netherlands, to label Hezbollah a terror group. Underpinning Germany’s behavior was an unspoken agreement with the terror group that Hezbollah can operate in Europe on condition that it doesn’t attack European targets.
Hezbollah breached that agreement in 2012 when it bombed an airport bus in Burgas, Bulgaria, killing five Israeli tourists and a Bulgarian national, and wounding 32 others. Following the bombing, which was quickly shown to have been the work of Hezbollah and Iran, the U.S. and Israel demanded that the EU label Hezbollah as a terror group and prohibit it from operating on EU territory.
But due to German obstruction, it took an entire year for the EU to act. And in the end, all it did was label Hezbollah’s “military wing” a terror group, while permitting its “political wing” to continue to operate in Europe. Given that in practice, there is no distinction between the two ostensible “wings,” the EU’s designation had no impact on the group’s operations.
According to Germany’s Federal Intelligence Agency, there are some 950 Hezbollah operatives in Germany. They operate out of Shiite Islamic centers, which double as recruitment centers for the organization. Other overt activities include holding demonstrations advocating “boycott, divestment and sanctions” (BDS) against Israel.
On the covert side, Hezbollah operatives and Iranian agents have been arrested in recent months in Germany scoping out Israeli and Jewish sites.
Hezbollah operatives in Germany operate in a similar fashion to the group’s agents in Latin America. Discussing Hezbollah operatives in the Western Hemisphere, in February the U.S. Military’s Southern Command assessed, “Lebanese Hezbollah maintains an established logistical, facilitating, fundraising and operational presence in this region that can be quickly leveraged with little or no warning.”
Despite the obvious danger Hezbollah’s operations in Germany manifest to Germany itself and to allied interests in Germany and throughout Europe, rather than shut them down, the German government protects them.
In part, Germany’s insistence on protecting Hezbollah and Iranian operations in Europe owes to its economic interests. In 2017, German trade with Iran rose 17 percent, from $3.2 billion to $4.3 billion. The vast majority of trade between Germany and Iran is German exports.
One of the chief excuses Germany gives for its protection of Iran and Hezbollah is that it doesn’t want to do anything to influence the outcome of the mordant “peace process” between Israel and the Palestinians.
A State Department official told the Jerusalem Post that the Germans base their refusal to ban Hezbollah’s “political wing” on the claim that the Lebanese Shiite terror group’s operation “is linked to Israel-Palestinian peace talks.”
This position is notable for two reasons. First, Hezbollah operations in Germany have no relationship whatsoever to Israeli-Palestinian relations. Second, at the base of the German position is the notion that there is something fundamentally acceptable about murdering Israelis.
Assuming that the Germans believe this is a serious argument, it follows that hostility towards Israel is what informs Germany’s policies towards Iran and Hezbollah. This is extraordinary, given that both have stated openly and repeatedly their intention to annihilate the Jewish state.
Indeed, as Israel mourned the Holocaust on its Holocaust Remembrance Day last Thursday, a senior Iranian official again threatened to destroy Israel.
Ali Shirazi, Iranian dictator Ayatollah Ali Khamenei’s representative to the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps’ Al Quds Brigade said, “If Israel wants to continue its treacherous existence it should avoid stupid measures. If they give excuses to Iran, Tel Aviv and Haifa will be destroyed. Iran can destroy Israel.”
Of course, the U.S. itself views with alarm Iran’s threats against Israel specifically and its nuclear weapons program generally. Not only is a nuclear-backed threat to commit genocide a serious one, a nuclear-armed Iran could easily instigate a new world war.
Alarmingly, in the midst of Germany’s malign efforts to protect Iran and Hezbollah from sanction while permitting them to operate throughout Europe, for the past seven months, the U.S. has been without an ambassador in Germany. Democrats in the Senate are blocking the confirmationof  seasoned Republican diplomat Richard Grenell.
While the White House waits for the Senate to permit the U.S. to be represented by an ambassador, the Germans have broken a deal with the U.S. and Israel to permit Israel to run for a rotating UN Security Council seat unopposed. Germany shocked both Israel and the US by opting to run against the Jewish state in the June election. The move ensures, once again, that the Jewish state will be denied representation at the Security Council.
It bears noting that Germany’s central role in empowering Iran and Hezbollah undermines the central rationale of Germany’s postwar governance. For 70 years, the Federal Republic of Germany has insisted it learned the lessons of its past aggression and crimes against humanity.
After fomenting two world wars and carrying out the most egregious genocide in human history, the Germans insist they abjure aggression and take seriously their “special responsibility” to protect the Jewish state. But Germany’s treatment of Iran and Hezbollah on the one hand, and its treatment of Israel on the other hand, indicate that whatever lessons the Germans may have learned, they missed the two most important ones.
First: If you wish to prevent a world war, you shouldn’t empower forces that seek to initiate one.
And second: If you are committed to preventing evildoers from enacting another Holocaust, you shouldn’t enable evildoers committed to annihilating the Jewish state from acquiring the means to do so.
