I want to thank ForGodandCountry for cluing me into the Wittes-Baker-Brookings rendezvous – the first real indication that the SHADOW OF THE DESCENDING MOAB is darkening the LAWFARE BLOG.
John Brennan only followed twenty-some accounts on Twitter, and LawFareBlog was one of them – the only thing even remotely like a blog. Every other account was an Obama player or some form of FAKE NEWS. Meaning Wittes was a PLAYER.
Comey seemed to be getting his advice from there.
The blog’s own self-description was DECEPTIVE and indicated FOREIGN TARGETS – a seemingly purposeful evasion of stating the very OBVIOUS domestic uses
What was happening to TRUMP seemed much MORE like “lawfare” than the blog’s own dubious definition
When local federal heat of some kind was trying to FRAME ME, it sure felt like “lawfare”
Just listen to Baker. OH, THIS PERP IS GOOD FOR A LOT. Way more than I thought. Just listen to the sleazebag. I figured he was a CANKLEBOT – that he was the GATEKEEPER who made sure nothing bad ever advanced against the interests of CANKLES. Now I’m sure of it.

Gonna be frank with people.
I literally thanked G_d today for President Trump.
I also THANKED G_D for our deliverance from evil in general, at the level of the universe itself. I sounded like I was straight out of the Old Testament! Psalms of thanks and gratefulness! JOY at our deliverance from evil!
I was thinking about just how CUNNING our adversaries have been – how much they’ve FOOLED AMERICA for the last century – and I just had to THANK GOD for our President, and for the PROTECTION of God. Despite all the trickery, we’re still hanging on to our freedoms, and we’re still not suffering like we COULD BE SUFFERING, at the hands of TYRANTS.
So take a moment and SAY THANKS and PRAY!
Always keep our movement’s larger purpose in mind – RESTORATION!!!
That is why there MUST BE cleaning of the SWAMP!!!

NOW….
THREE THINGS TONIGHT:
1.
I’m working on a great new post that will raise a lot of concern and likely stir up a hornet’s nest. It really needs to get done, too. You’ll see why.
2.
Been having some computer issues – hopefully they will be gone soon.
3.
Based on this new post, it looks like the other side is going all out with the deceptions. Even if we keep the White House, this will not be easy sledding. They are doing everything they can at the state and local levels to undermine President Trump – even in the RED districts. In fact, THAT is where they are trying to STEAL THE MONEY NOW.

NOW….
THREE THINGS TONIGHT:
1.
Although I now have FOUR NIGHTS a week covered by authors (other than myself) who want to do Daily Threads, as follows, I am still looking for more.
Monday – Wheatietoo
Tuesday – Wolf Moon
Wednesday – Wolf Moon
Thursday – Wolf Moon
Friday – ForGodandCountry
Saturday – Wheatietoo
Sunday – ThinkThinkThink
If you think you would like to take one of the remaining “Wolf” days (T, W. Th, meaning you post the night before at midnight), please let me know. I am encouraged by the great reception that our Daily Thread authors are getting, and would love to add one or two new Daily Thread authors to take maximum advantage of this effect.
You need to be US-based, operating from a secure home computer (not on a roaming laptop or mobile device), and otherwise pass somewhat rougher vetting than even Wolf’s Extreme Vetting which posters normally pass. Some upstanding interested people in deep blue zones may simply be put on hold until enough of the swamp is IN JAIL, at which point American security will automatically tighten.
The reasons I am now being a bit more cautious about (a) location of authors, and (b) making sure that this place could run smoothly if I were, say, indisposed due to some kind of LAWFARE plot, has to do with both items 2 and 3. I believe that my strongest earlier suspicions about DOJ and FBI under Rosenstein are now confirmed. More on that below.
So if you’re interested, please let me know.
2.
There is an article in Human Events about AG Barr that your really need to read. HOWEVER, WordPress goes NUTS if the URL “embeds”, so here is a masked link:
I will also embed the URL at the END of this post, where it can’t mess anything up.
This article explains my theory on Barr, Mueller and Rosenstein in LEGAL terms.
To ME, it confirms that Rosey is a black hat who has more successfully than anybody masked himself. He was willing to let OTHERS decide Trump’s fate, once he created the corrupt Mueller process. This is how they created plausible deniability of malicious intent. Rosey threw the magic potato that turned into a grenade and said “That’s OK, just follow the process for throwing potatoes and all will be well. See? I agree with Bill Barr now that he’s my boss.”
It’s LAWFARE. I can SEE IT. Others did, too, and that is why they booted Sessions to get somebody to END THE LAWFARE based on BAD LAW (the subsection in question, which will eventually go to SCOTUS, and which is the basis of Democrat obstruction traps).
I believe that the NEED to bring in Barr is related to the “change” in “Trust Sessions” – that there was a need to stop “trusting” him and replace him. Basically, a CHANGE in the plan. In my opinion, people RIGHTLY stopped trusting Rosey, but they needed to remove SESSIONS to get past Rosey the Rook, who had castled with King Robert of Mueller.
Whatever. Water under the bridge, but WE were pawns in it. WE had to go, so that Trump supporters who liked Sessions would get out of the way of FALLING SESSIONS, who pretty much fell on his sword.
3.
The Democrats are extremely serious about 2020. I am seeing plot investments on a scale which DWARFS anything I have seen before.
I believe that the Democrats and black hats have LOST access to NSA data on me, and that this explains why there has been a relatively large degree of calm in my life. HOWEVER, I have now discovered how they intend to remedy that situation, and it’s fairly ingenious. Independent discovery of the same by the White Hats will validate.
This FOUR AND THIRTY THURSDAY [editorial note – yeah, it’s actually TUESDAY – LOL – and so it goes….] open thread is VERY OPEN – a place for everybody to post whatever they feel they would like to tell the White Hats, and the rest of the MAGA world.

For your listening enjoyment, I offer this from the talents of the composer known as Fearless Motivation, titled: ‘You Are Not Weak’:
As part of a new, long-term theme like the “VLWC” (Vast Left-Wing Conspiracy) series, I’m going to help people see long-term commie moves with a “Strategery” series. I love stealing this word, because the people in the Bush camp who adopted it as their version of “Deplorables” clearly had little understanding of the long-term strategy of the communists who manipulated them so readily.
Our “strategery” will put theirs to shame. And to think THEY opposed Trump. Ridiculous.
AND logic.
LONG-TERM thinking.
UNCERTAINTY as a way of life.
These things will slowly bring us into levels of understanding that makes the either/or, short-term-thinking, implication-as-fake-certainty FAKE NEWS absolutely useless. I repeat these ideas differently.
Life is not either/or, and getting you to think that way is a TRICK.
Life is not short-term. Getting you to see and respond to the short-term, by long-term thinkers, is a TRICK.
Life is uncertain. Getting you to NEED certainty when there is no certainty, is a TRICK.
We begin today’s lesson with a Q drop from yesterday.
Much of the Q movement is going to concentrate on what I regard as the chump change of this drop – the odd capitalization of every word, and the splitting of “household” into HouseHold. Trust me – our buddy Q has some awesome messages in there for the SB2 types. However, that is THEIR bag, not ours.
Happy hunting, cryptogram solvers.
WE, in contrast, are going to get all Bezmenov on this one.
Several parts of the article are highly relevant:
The subtitle:
Hannigan oversaw a more open approach at GCHQ after the Snowden revelations exposed mass surveillance by the agency
His sudden resignation – he informed staff just hours before making this decision public – prompted speculation that it might be related to British concerns over shared intelligence with the US in the wake of Donald Trump becoming president.
The key point here is that SNOWDEN had effects on GCHQ. ONE of those effects that led to MANY OTHERS was insertion of THIS GUY HANNIGAN.
Now – if you’re following along with Q, then you know Snowden was a CLOWN OP that had a strong intention to damage NSA. But THAT is not necessarily the only reason. And to think about WHY Snowden was manipulated into doing what he did, remember that commies will try to SOW ONCE and REAP MANY TIMES. See how the suppression of AND logic keeps us dumb? THEY think multiple outcomes. WE chase our tails on the idea of WHICH outcome.
We need to GET OVER the idea that SNOWDEN did what he did for ONE REASON.
We also need to GET OVER the idea that SNOWDEN was a short-term yield. AND we need to get over the idea that we know ALL of the reasons they did the Snowden operation.
Are you with me? Let’s move on.
Remember – this guy CAME IN and LEFT on controversy. Controversy is USEFUL to them.
Note that both the INSERTION and REMOVAL of this guy are a PATTERN of POKE and RESPONSE due to REVELATION and MEDIA MANIPULATION. The other side uses this all the time. This is an extremely important reason why FAKE NEWS works. Fake News helps to control both the REVELATION and the MANIPULATION.
SIDEBAR:
Khashoggi was a perfect example. CIA commies and their DNC media CREATED and then “revealed” a fake American, a fake journalist, and in many ways a fake victim, who had been manipulated into his own MURDER – one that they controlled in several hidden ways – and could then use primary blame-casting of the set-up Saudis to manipulate American foreign policy.
The problem with Khashoggi was that the PUBLIC and REAL JOURNALISM were able to reveal enough hidden truth that the whole operation’s SKETCHY NATURE became evident. It was clearly a MANIPULATION – and United States foreign policy does NOT deserve to change because of communist manipulations – even if they are OUR COMMUNISTS.
Back to Hannigan – particularly his INSERTION.
First of all, who is he?
Hannigan’s background was not initially in intelligence. Born in Gloucester in 1965 and brought up in Yorkshire, he had been a high-flying civil servant at the Northern Ireland Office, where he was head of communications and later political director. He was involved in the peace process, credited[note media manipulation – W] with coming up with the idea for a diamond-shaped table[rolling eyes hard -W] in order to get over objections by the opposing sides about seating arrangements.
He transferred to London where he became involved in a series of intelligence jobs, including defence and liaison with the US, before going on to GCHQ, where he worked for six months as part of the handover before taking control.
Guardian article
If this looks a lot like a typical unqualified or deceptively qualified OBAMA APPOINTEE, then yeah, you’re seeing it, too. This guy had no business being in charge of GCHQ. And yet he was. FUNNY, THAT.
FAKE REFORM is a very big thing with communists and OUR intelligence agencies.
So – let’s look at their FAKE REFORM at GCHQ. What did the commies REALLY DO?
At the time, GCHQ, in spite of many of its secrets spilled by Snowden, remained the most secretive of the three intelligence agencies: the others being MI6 and MI5. But Hannigan expanded the press team, invited more journalists to visit GCHQ and encouraged a stream of news stories aimed at bringing the agency into the public eye. [as if any of this is going to actually solve any problems. -W]
In his first week in office, he created controversy with a column published in the Financial Times accusing US technology companies of becoming “the command and control networks of choice” for terrorists.
In March last year, he softened his criticism in a speech to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, calling for a new relationship between the intelligence agencies and the tech companies, part of a campaign to try to secure the help of the companies in providing access to supposedly encrypted messages.
Guardian article
I could go on forever about this. Hannigan BEHAVED in the classic ways of a CLINTON or OBAMA appointee. Once you see that “saboteur” model in operation, you never forget it.
invites in reporters and other “low-grade spies” – this is extremely reminiscent of Hazel O’Leary in Energy. The left LOVES to get a diversity-based or other unqualified leftoid in at the top, who leverages a media-driven moral panic (“OH NOES! WE NEED OPEN!”) or moral manic (“OH, JOY, WE ARE ALL OPEN NOW!”) to WEAKEN security
immediately uses JOURNALISM to call for tech censorship using terrorism foil
immediately blame-casts to US tech companies on terror (which problem, ironically, NSA is watching), while US tech companies are simultaneously media-cast as VICTIMS of spying by the Snowden op, in order to WEAKEN the NSA. What are the commies trying to do here? What communists always try to do. Get a government function out of government, to some place they control. What the commies wanted to do was SHIFT the burden of fighting terror (which they control) from the NSA to SJWs in tech companies. (As if that would work!) Funny that those SJWs would censor the political enemies of the left. Such a coincidence.
note that Hannigan’s timeline MATCHES Obama’s post-Obamacare roll-out failure-excused calls for partnership with tech, that quickly turned into tech hiring of SJWs and massive censorship
BIG POINT – SNOWDEN softened up the tech companies to censorship pitch
So – are you beginning to see why they don’t want a serious inquiry of this Hannigan guy? GET HIM OUT while the getting is good. Just like the lady (NOT Lois Lerner) who was responsible for the IRS scandal. Just like Eric Holder getting out of Dodge.
Resignation or job-shifting before inquiry is STRAIGHT out of the Obama manual. They needed this Hannigan guy GONE pronto, as soon as Trump was elected.
And what, finally, was the BIGGEST point?
SNOWDEN LED TO INSERTION OF SOMEBODY AT GCHQ WHO WOULD PLAY BALL WITH OBAMA IN 2016, TO ELECT HILLARY CLINTON.
What are our big learning points here?
Snowden was a big op with MANY OUTCOMES (AND logic), had MANY BIG LATE EFFECTS (long-term thinking), and likely will have MANY MORE that we have not yet recognized (uncertainty).
Strategery. The commies may have it. But so do we.
