“We do not believe any group of men adequate enough or wise enough to operate without scrutiny or without criticism. We know that the only way to avoid error is to detect it, that the only way to detect it is to be free to inquire. We know that in secrecy error undetected will flourish and subvert.” –J. Robert Oppenheimer
TheseTruths on July 2, 2025 brought this explosive FBI reveal in the tweet below. I wonder if the Epstein crap, released as a leaked memo without signature, less than a week later was an ‘OH look a squirrel’ to take MAGA attention off of this big reveal.
That leak certainly did a great job of diverting attention. However I think this is what we should actually be paying attention to. Correcting our very corrupt election system is UP STREAM of putting in American First politicians and as a result being able to clean the corruption out of the judiciary and bureaucracy.
This is the tweet TheseTruths brought to our attention.
•FBI HQ interfered with Albany NY investigation into alleged Chinese 2020 Election Interference •Designed to shield then FBI Director Wray from political blowback over his Congressional testimony… pic.twitter.com/UbwITQCdK7
READ the actual Doc PDF HERE.It is 47 pages and not badly redacted.
A few interesting bits:
Hey gents, Hope you’ve had a great day. Quick heads up: I met with today. S/he advised that her/his most recent reporting specifically regardingthe fraudulent use of drivers’ licenses-was obtained from an individual in China. I asked if s/he had read about the aforementioned fraudulent use of drivers’ licenses in a newspaper, and said no. provided the name of the person who provided this information. I will document this information in a supplementary contact report as opposed to a source reporting document. The reason for this is I want to continue, as feasible as possible, to safeguard ’s identity.
The redactions are not showing they are just missing in the copy & paste.
Thanks I just got a call from an SIA and UC at CD. Not surprisingly, all raw reporting concerning the election will now require HQ coordination, which was not required as of last week.
One thing they asked if [redacted] could address with the source – is the source or sub-source aware of open source reporting concerning seizures of thousands of driver’s licenses at Chicago O’Hare? Further open sources began to suggest these drivers licenses were being used to vote fraudulently…
And this is the August 2020 open source reporting (It was on Fox)
This smells like big time election interference to me… BY WAYNE DUPREEAUGUST 7, 2020
Why are the Chinese making so many fake U.S. driver licenses?….
According to U.S. Customs and Border Protection, the bulk of these fake U.S. IDs flooding into the country come from China and Hong Kong, with the rest coming in from South Korea and the U.K. [The UK is interfering again?? Remember the ties of Hong Kong to the UK too. -GC]
Federal customs officers have seized 1,513 shipments from overseas containing fraudulent documents—19,888 counterfeit U.S. driver’s licenses—just at Chicago O’Hare International Airport this year through the end of June.
Most of the shipments came from Hong Kong and mainland China, according to U.S. Customs and Border Protection. Other shipments came from South Korea and the U.K.
“These counterfeit driver’s licenses can lead to disastrous consequences,” CBP’s Ralph Piccirilli said in a statement. “Criminal organizations use these counterfeit IDs to avoid attracting attention to their illegal activities.”
[…]
“What is most disconcerting about these interceptions, besides the volume in which we are experiencing, is the ease in which so many young people freely share their personal information with counterfeiters abroad,” Lemaux said in a statement.
“We’ll continue to collaborate with local law enforcement to educate the public, and anyone who is contemplating purchasing a counterfeit ID online, on the potential dangers of sharing your personal, identifiable information with a criminal element.”
As The Gateway Pundit reported back in 2020, election fraud whistleblowers came forward in December following the controversial election, including one who witnessed the shipping of an estimated 144,000-288,000 completed ballots across three state lines on October 21 2020.
The information was made public at a press conference by the Amistad Project of the Thomas More Society, a national constitutional litigation organization.
The Amistad Project said at the time that they had sworn declarations that over 300,000 ballots are at issue in Arizona, 548,000 in Michigan, 204,000 in Georgia, and over 121,000 in Pennsylvania.
They said that their evidence reveals multi-state illegal efforts by USPS workers to influence the election in at least three of six swing states.
The whistleblower statements included potentially hundreds of thousands of completed absentee ballots being transported across three state lines, and a trailer filled with ballots disappearing in Pennsylvania.
Attorney Phil Kline said, “130,000 to 280,000 completed ballots for the 2020 general election were shipped from Bethpage, NY, to Lancaster, PA, where those ballots and the trailer in which they were shipped disappeared.”
Truck driver Jesse Morgan was present at the press conference and spoke for 9 minutes about his unbelievable ordeal. Morgan was tasked with delivering completed ballots to Pennsylvania from New York State….
When talking about fraud and elections you can not forget Lawfare Expert Marc Elias who has done more to ‘shape’ our current election system than anyone else. (image from WIKI)
November 2, 2021 – Elias led numerous lawsuits in 2020 to expand mail-in voting and represented the Biden campaign in the election aftermath.
In other words, Elias used the courts to circumvent the legislature’s Constitutional RIGHT to determine how a state’s elections are run. For example, in North Carolina, a decade ago a law was passed requiring ID. An inferior court struck it down. Now courts are being used to remove the Constitutional Rights of our president.
Hillary Clinton’s attorney, Marc Elias (above), ordered George Gascon, the Los Angeles District Attorney (LADA), to kill the Konnech election sabotage case on Nov. 9th.
No one in Gascon’s office will go on the record to admit it. Because if they do, they fear dying with a pillow implanted over their face. Gascon was told to lie to his staff.
He told them the call came from the DNC (Democrat National Committee). Instead of Hillary. However, Hillary is the DNC…. [I do not care either way – GC]
Public information requests for the LADA’s phone records in November are unanswered.
Konnech CEO Eugene Yu was charged with embezzling $2.6 million from LA County for storing its election data in China, violating national security.
To avoid criminal prosecution, Yu relocated to Malaysia. Eugene fled the country on Nov. 10th after redeeming his $500,000 cash bond….
The above article has several pointers to other articles about Eugene Yu and Konnech.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
I am going to steal some information from my old article in order to present as full a picture as I can. As far as I am concerned Katherine Engelbrecht, Gregg Phillips and Kanekoa should be up for a medal presented by POTUS Trump!
Katherine explains they were most interested in PROCESS and they did a lot of open records requests.
This is just the first few minutes of Gregg’s talk:
2:30 to 7:30 Gregg: the 3rd week of January in 2021, my guys in Dallas called me to a meeting at a Hilton… they had rented a room and they were all sort of wierd and stuffed towels under the door… They pulled up on the screen, in essence a data base. And the data base had in it every bit of information you would want to know on 1.8 million Americans. Their Drivers licence number, their dates of birth, social security numbers, bank account numbers routing numbers for those banks, their addresses THEIR KIDS. Pretty much everything you would want to know. Also the kids were in their and we knew that because the kids names were noted in all caps…We are going thru this and I am asking what is this? And this is 1.8 million election workers in America. But it was more than that. It was a lot more than that. So as we dug into it and spent the next 3 or 4 hours and breaking up just before dawn… We learned thru this discovery process that this company had COLLECTED ALL VOTING RELATED INFORMATION, not just about the workers, about the schematics for the buildings, the RFID codes on the equipment, anything you would want to know about an election, to run an election or administer an election was in this data base.
The Data base it’s self… explains how got into the data base using Binary Edge (5:17 – 6:15)…It would be startling enough to know that information… was on servers in America. You would be even more startled to know this server lives on the main Unicom backbone in China and it is in a Chinese University in Wuhan China…. I am not talking about this being a storage place for a data process here. The App server for this particular application was in China….
Gregg is introducing the people at the PIT to Konnech and Eugene Yu. The server not only contained info on Americans but also on Australians, Canadians, Mexican and they ultimately found out the CCP elections are on this same server. This confounded the local (Detroit) FBI counter intel team. Gregg says they were part of the on going FBI operation [Can you say set-up by FBI?] Later Gregg acknowledged that it was a set-up. At ~30 minutes they get into exhibits.
This is the complete list of Docs that were shared: Zip File
Also mentioned is the Chinese law that makes ALL THE DATA ON THAT WEB SERVER CHINESE GOVERNMENT PROPERTY! Konnech has contracts all over the country, mainly in all the key counties and all the key cities like Detroit and Boston.
At around 9 minutes to 11 minutes Gregg talks about Mungo DB and their password. How the system was so poorly written that it was wide open and allowed his guys to download all the data. He then goes into the Chinese Communist Credit Scores that ALSO IS APPLIED to AMERICANS. They have more info about Americans than anyone in the world. Gregg emphasizes they have info on just about EVERYONE in the USA. Also Gregg mentions Eugene Yu had his hands in mail-in vote counting software too.
The Georgia and January 6th-related indictments against Donald J. Trump are predicated on the narrative that election authorities like Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, U.S. Attorney General Bill Barr, and others had thoroughly evaluated the accuracy of the 2020 elections and gave counsel to then-President Donald Trump that there was “no meaningful election fraud” based on their professional, supportable evaluations. True the Vote’s experiences in Georgia prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that the General Election of 2020 was never meaningfully investigated. From the over 67,000 votes attached to voting records of individuals ineligible to vote in their jurisdiction to unmonitored surveillance cameras and phantom ballots, these errant processes should have been monitored and investigated before certification. As you will read, True the Vote repeatedly presented its work to Federal and State law enforcement officials. Authorities did not investigate. Instead, they obfuscated, delayed, and ultimately targeted President Trump, True the Vote, and others, for publicly exposing their failure to uphold lawful processes. Those who question the accuracy of the 2020 General Election were, and are, right to do so.
open.ink team”
Kanekoa gets into the nuts and bolts of the computer stuff Gregg revealed and I do not understand.
Konnech CEO Eugene Yu was arrested earlier this month in Michigan in connection with “theft of personal data.” The alleged stolen data belonged to poll workers and was the subject of TrueTheVote’s “PIT” in Arizona last August, where Catherine Engelbrecht and Gregg Phillips singled out the company…Now we get into the more recent information.
…. April 18, 2024 from Just The News. This is the information conveyed above by others.
The Los Angeles DA allegedly dropped the criminal charges against Konnech CEO Eugene Yu because he was afraid of appearing to be aligned with President Trump, according to the prosecutor’s complaint.
A lead prosecutor on a case involving the CEO of an election software company has filed a government tort complaint against Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascón for allegedly dismissing criminal charges improperly against the company executive for political purposes.
The prosecution of the head of an election software company used by election offices across the country that began in October 2022 was ended about a month later because of the Los Angeles County district attorney’s concerns about his political image, according to the lead prosecutor’s complaint against the DA.
On Wednesday, Eric Neff, a prosecutor in the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office, filed a lawsuit against the DA for allegedly improperly dismissing criminal charges against Eugene Yu, the founder and CEO of the Michigan-based election software company Konnech….

: Expose the FBI and Gascón’s Konnech–CCP Election Software Cover-Up Strong evidence shows that corrupt FBI officials and former LADA George Gascón deliberately concealed CCP infiltration of U.S. election systems—because exposing it would have politically benefited @realDonaldTrump
now have a rare opportunity: expose how deeply politicized the FBI became, remove CCP-controlled software from America’s elections, and finish an investigation that was already 90% complete before it was sabotaged. At the center of the scandal is Konnech, a Michigan-based election software company secretly developed and financed by two Chinese firms—Jinhua Yulian Network and Jinhua Hongzheng Technology—under contract with China’s National People’s Congress and in partnership with state-owned giants like Huawei, China Telecom, China Unicom, China Mobile, and Lenovo. Konnech’s flagship product, PollChief, is used to manage poll worker scheduling, equipment deployment, and logistics in major U.S. cities including Los Angeles, San Francisco, Detroit, Washington D.C., Fairfax County, and St. Louis.
In early 2021, @TrueTheVote‘s Catherine Engelbrecht and Gregg Phillips discovered that Konnech was storing the personally identifiable information (PII) of U.S. election workers, judges, and voters on servers in China. Using open-source tools like Binary Edge, they traced PollChief to Chinese IP addresses—where they found unsecured databases containing names, Social Security numbers, addresses, bank information, voter roll data, polling location schematics, provisional ballot serial numbers, and even passwords for voting machines.
They alerted FBI field offices in Detroit and San Antonio, where agents took the threat seriously and launched a 15-month counterintelligence investigation. But in April 2022—just before the release of Dinesh D’Souza’s 2000 Mules, a film on 2020 election fraud featuring True the Vote—FBI headquarters in Washington, D.C. intervened and flipped the investigation on its head. Field agents warned Engelbrecht and Phillips that they, not Konnech, were now considered the threat.
Two senior female FBI officials in Washington D.C. were reportedly preparing criminal charges against them rather than Konnech’s CEO Eugene Yu. Engelbrecht was warned she and Phillips might be prosecuted for accessing Konnech’s data on Chinese servers. The FBI even tipped off Konnech about the investigation—compromising the case—and began circulating internal accusations that Phillips had committed cybercrimes, referring those allegations to the CIA and NSA.
Phillips said their goal was to “Roger Stone” him—publicly smear and criminalize him as they had done to Trump allies. In fear for their safety, a field agent advised Engelbrecht and Phillips to take the “nuclear option”—go public. On August 13, 2022, they did just that at The Pit, a closed-door briefing in Arizona with 200 cybersecurity experts, journalists, and election integrity investigators.
Two weeks later, Konnech sued them. In a stunning series of courtroom actions, Engelbrecht and Phillips were jailed and held in solitary confinement—until the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals ordered their immediate release. The FBI stood by and let it happen. After their release, they published thousands of documents exposing Konnech’s ties to China. Within days, Konnech dropped the lawsuit.
Meanwhile, independent researchers quickly pieced together Eugene Yu’s background. Born in China, Jianwei Yu (于建伟) graduated from Zhejiang University in 1982 and worked for the CCP from 1983 to 1985 as a project manager in the Guangzhou Economic and Technological Development Zone. He moved to the U.S. in 1986 to pursue an MBA at Wake Forest University. In 2002, Yu founded Konnech. By November 2005, he had launched a Chinese subsidiary—Jinhua Yulian Network—funded and overseen by the CCP. That same year, he was profiled as an “overseas scholar” in a Chinese-language publication by the China Association for Science and Technology (CAST) and the American Zhu Kezhen Education Foundation (AZKEF). CAST is a formal CCP arm linking Chinese leadership with overseas scientists and technologists. AZKEF, where Yu served on the finance committee, flew U.S. researchers—including Harvard’s Charles Lieber—to Chinese universities.
Lieber was later arrested for failing to disclose his ties to China’s Thousand Talents Plan, one of the CCP’s many programs that recruit foreign experts to encourage the illicit transfer of intellectual property back to China. Konnech’s Chinese ties ran deep. It partnered with Michigan State University’s Confucius Institute, developed software in CCP-run tech parks, and directly served China’s National People’s Congress (NPC) and the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC).
On January 25, 2006, Yu’s Chinese company was accepted into the Chinese Academy of Sciences’ Jinhua Science and Technology Park—a CCP-controlled tech incubator. From that point on, Jinhua Yulian Network and Konnech, were financed, developed, and controlled by the Chinese Communist Party. Just a month later, on February 25, 2006, Yu registered the domain yu-lian .cn for Jinhua Yulian Network using his Konnech email address (eyu@konnech .com). Archived versions of the company’s Chinese-language website show Yu praising “Comrade Jiang Zemin” and the Chinese Communist Party, while promoting Konnech’s software products used by the National People’s Congress, the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference, Election Management Solutions Detroit, and U.S. Overseas Voters.
In December 2006, Konnech partnered with the Confucius Institute to build a Chinese communication platform called ChineseBrief .com. Yu registered CNBrief LLC, launched www.cnbrief .com, and displayed a banner in Chinese that translated to: “Chinese Brief – Overseas Chinese Network.” Confucius Institutes are CCP-funded cultural centers embedded in Western universities that U.S. intelligence agencies and lawmakers have long warned operate under the direction of the CCP. On July 18, 2007, an archived Chinese government website showed Yu offering a 5 million yuan (~$700,000 USD) software development contract on behalf of Jinhua Yulian Network, again using his Konnech email address and website.
The U.S. election software CEO managed the Guangzhou Development Zone, and his Chinese subsidiary developed electronic voting systems for China’s National People’s Congress for nearly two decades.
Do you think Eugene Yu is secretly running Hongzheng Technology? Or, perhaps, could Yu be secretly running Konnech, a voting technology company in America, for the CCP?
An independent journalist published an excellent video report on Konnech CEO Eugene Yu’s connection to Hongzheng Technology. With her Chinese background, Lei independently verified Konnech CEO Eugene Yu’s relation to the Chinese Communist Party’s premier voting technology company Jinhua Hongzheng Technology. [Contains transcript]
I meticulously documented everything I found about Eugene Yu for the last six weeks — and now I’m ready to teach New York Times reporters and FBI agents what I found. It’s super simple!
“Each time I get someone to sign they gave me $200… One day I got like $1200… I did it for like six months… Deborah [Peoples] gave me cash… Stuart [Clegg] gave me cash.
Michigan’s Konnech Inc. registered “hongzhengtech.cn” for a Chinese election technology company partnered with Lenovo, Huawei, China Telecom, China Unicom, and China’s National People’s Congress.
A deep dive into a Michigan election company’s patents, employees, domain registrations, and internet archives reveals a disturbing Chinese connection.
Konnech Inc., creator of the ‘PollChief’ software used by ‘thousands of Election Offices across North America’ built ChineseBrief.com for the Confucius Institute.
“If you haven’t seen the movie 2000 mules — watch it. I don’t think anyone can say that the 2020 election was the freest and fairest in history after watching that.”
This article contains a ton of other info besides the video.
I am hoping the ‘Safe & Secure Election’ trope gets blown sky high very soon! (And Tina Peters is released and vindicated.)

I really love this paragraph because Jeff Childers ‘gets it’
To say that London is the world’s globalization headquarters is like saying the Mouse lives at Disney World. London has been the velvet-gloved epicenter of globalism ever since the East India Company shipped spices and opium on the same manifest.
London’s financial class didn’t just benefit from globalization— they practically wrote the instruction manual. For them to start hand-wringing now about “mass immigration” and “no benefits from free trade” is a sign the ground is shaking beneath the WEF cathedral.
Colonel Towner did a recent dig on Iran. She is specifically looking at the SOVAK, [WIKI] a secret Police in IRAN originally trained by the Russians in the 1800s, [1879] It was taken over by CIA, MI6 & Mossad. And remained in place during ALL the regime changes in Iran. That would certainly explain why Mossad knows so much about Iranian leaders.
Oh and the guy we know as ‘The Shah’ was a really nasty fellow according to the Colonel’s research. Note that the ‘crown prince’ live quite close to CIA head quarters and do not forget all the recent ‘Regime Change’ chatter. The CIA has pulled regime changes in 90 countries when ever the country’s leaders did not allow the International corporations to exploit the raw materials without paying and used the natives as cheap (slave) labor.

The CIA already has their man ready. They have been grooming him since he was 17 years old. He lives not far from the CIA headquarters in Langley, Virginia. He is Reza Pahlavi, the Crown Prince of Iran…

Wherever the Four Horsemen gallop the CIA is close behind. [The Colonel said they are actually in the lead clearing the way for the multinationals.] Iran was no exception. By 1957 the Company, as intelligence insiders know the CIA, created one of its first Frankensteins – the Shah’s brutal secret police known as SAVAK. Kermit Roosevelt, the Mossadegh coup-master turned Northrop salesman, admitted in his memoirs that SAVAK was 100% created by the CIA and Mossad, the Israeli intelligence agency that acts as appendage of the CIA.
For the next 20 years the CIA and SAVAK were joined at the hip when it came to matters of Persian Gulf security. Three hundred fifty SAVAK agents were shuttled each year to CIA training facilities in McLean, Virginia, where they learned the finer arts of interrogation and torture. [15]
Top SAVAK brass were trained through the US Agency for International Development’s (USAID) Public Safety Program, until it was shut down in 1973 due to its reputation for turning out some of the world’s finest terrorists. In 1963 when JFK was assassinated SAVAK Chief Hassan Pakravan joined the Shah in Tehran to celebrate Kennedy’s death. [16] CIA, MI6 and Mossad supported 30 paramilitary groups in Iran and provided support to Shah-loyalist groups.
Popular anger towards Big Oil, the Shah and his new police state resulted in mass protests. The Shah dealt with the peaceful demonstrations with sheer brutality and got a wink and nod from Langley. From 1957-79 Iran housed 125,000 political prisoners. SAVAK “disappeared” dissenters, a strategy replicated by CIA surrogate dictators in Argentina and Chile…

PAUL SPERRY
TradeBait2(@tradebait2) on June 26, 2025 brought this to the Qtree.
….I found an interesting email waiting for me in my inbox from Matt Taibbi, the independent journo Elon Musk tasked with reviewing andreleasing internal Twitter documents about decisions to censor content and ban users from the platform.
White House National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan figures prominently in a grand jury investigation run by Special Counsel John Durham into an alleged 2016 Hillary Clinton campaign scheme to use both the FBI and CIA to tar Donald Trump as a colluder with Russia, according to people familiar with the criminal probe, which they say has broadened into a conspiracy case…
…Two U.S. officials briefed on the inspector general’s investigation of possible FBI misconduct said Comey was essentially “running a covert operation against” thepresident, starting with a private “defensive briefing” he gave Trump just weeks before his inauguration. They said Horowitz has examined high-level FBI text messages and other communications indicating Comey was actually conducting a “counterintelligence assessment” of Trump during that January 2017 meeting in New York.
In addition to adding notes of his meetings and phone calls with Trump to the official FBI case file, Comey had an agent inside the White House who reported back to FBI headquarters about Trump and his aides, according to other officials familiar with the matter….
Comey’s meeting with Trump took place one day after the FBI director met in the Oval Office with President Obama and Vice President Joe Biden to discuss how to brief Trump — a meeting attended by National Security Adviser Susan Rice, Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson, Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates and National Intelligence Director James Clapper, who would soon go to work for CNN…
Another interesting 2019 story from Sperry on June 6, 2019.
Roger Stone was not the only one ‘swatted’ by Mueller & the FBI. WND.com founder and editor Joseph Farah. “…Not long after the interrogation, the 64-year-old Farah suffered a stroke and is still incapacitated…” [the ten witnesses also included AG Jeff Session!!]
…The suggestion that Democrats now are suddenly concerned about nuclear secrets seems implausible, too, he suggested.
“Recall how Dems and MSM didn’t give a rip about ‘national security’ when President Clinton: — declassified tens of thousands of pages of secrets about our nuclear weapons program; — transferred dual-use missile and other technology to China; and, — kicked open the doors to Los Alamos and our other nuclear weapons labs to Chinese scientists. Beijing subsequently stole the designs to every nuclear warhead in the US arsenal, including MIRVs, according to the Cox Report, and now China can independently target Honolulu, Los Angeles and San Francisco with a single ICBM.”
He also reported the FBI paperwork authorizing the raid on Trump’s home allowed agents to seize any boxes “in proximity” to any targeted papers….
AG Garland's decision to raid a former president's home will go down as one of the most ill-advised decisions in DOJ history
Who was his counselor? Maggie Goodlander. Who's she? The wife of Biden's National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan, who feared Trump had Iran nuke deal docs
The Cultural Revolution, formally known as the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution, was a sociopolitical movement in the People’s Republic of China (PRC). It was launched by Mao Zedong in 1966 and lasted until his death in 1976…
Dr. R.J. Rummel tabulated the 169,202,000 Murdered by their own government, many under some flavor of “Socialism” during the last century.
…Just to give perspective on this incredible murder by government, if all these bodies were laid head to toe, with the average height being 5′, then they would circle the earth ten times. Also, this democide murdered 6 times more people than died in combat in all the foreign and internal wars of the century….
After eight-years and almost daily reading and recording of men, women, and children by the tens of millions being tortured or beaten to death, hung, shot, and buried alive, burned or starved to death, stabbed or chopped into pieces, and murdered in all the other ways creative and imaginative human beings can devise, I have never been so happy to conclude a project. I have not found it easy to read time and time again about the horrors innocent people have been forced to suffer. What has kept me at this was the belief, as preliminary research seemed to suggest, that there was a positive solution to all this killing and a clear course of political action and policy to end it. And the results verify this. The problem is Power. The solution is democracy. The course of action is to foster freedom…
10. 7,474,000 Victims: Collectivization and “The Great Leap Forward”
11. 10,729,000 Victims: The Great Famine and Retrenchment Period
12. 7,731,000 Victims: The “Cultural Revolution”
13. 874,000 Victims: Liberalization
IMPORTANT NOTE: Among all the democide estimates appearing in this book, I have revised two upward. I have changed that for Mao’s famine, 1958-1962, from zero to 38,000,000. And thus I have had to change the overall democide for the PRC (1928-1987) from 38,702,000 to 76,702,000. Detailshere.
This might explain why those human rights violations were ignored. Not that the international corporations gave a flying F… about their foreign slave labor.
“By about the year 2000 Communist China will be a “superpower” built by American technology and skill.” — Antony C. Sutton, American Secret Establishment published 1984
Student Mao Zedong & Yale in China
“The fundamental difference between a “New World Order” under the United Nations and an independent United States are nowhere more clearly indicated than in our ‘Declaration of Independence’ affirmation that “men are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights.” The UN’s total exclusion of God means that rights do not come from God, (but) that they proceed from government, and government can take them away.
Skull and Bones reaches to all the leaders around the world and this may explain Bush’s obsessive support of China, regardless of the human rights violations and arsenol buildup.
“Skull and Bones is a secret fraternity at Yale University which restricts their membership to only fifteen per year. . The society was formed in 1832 by General William Russell, whose shipping firm later dominated the U.S. side of the China opium trade. Yale University was founded by Eli Yale, who made his fortune working for the opium smuggling British East India Company.”
Bush Sr of course was CIA. He was unable to get the World Trade Organization ratified. So just like with the Federal Reserve Act, it was handed off to a Democrat. Clinton, managed to get it ratified in the winter of 1994 and the WTO replaced GATT in 1995. Then Clinton “Negotiated terms for China’s entry into the World Trade Organization, with Permanent Normal Trade Relations.” China officially joined the WTO in 2001 at the end of Clinton’s term.
Washington would do well to take note of Chinese restraint as the situation with Iran grinds on for foreseeable future
On a visit to Shanghai some years ago, I asked a leading Chinese strategist how Beijing would view a war between the US and Iran… he shocked me by explaining that China would benefit from the US fighting yet another costly war in the Middle East, since that could mark the “end of US global hegemony.” The Chinese have indeed always considered the Middle East as “the graveyard of empires.”
While hostilities have subsided for now, there remains a grim possibility that the Israel-Iran ceasefire could break down and the US will once again face pressure to come to Israel’s defense. If China were to aid Iran, as it has Pakistan, with aircraft, missiles, and battle management technologies, that would mark a troubling escalation.
But now, Beijing remains cautious about wielding its military power abroad. Still, China will likely reap geopolitical benefits if the US continues to be on an adversarial footing with Iran….
In a significant shift in Middle Eastern geopolitics, Iran is accelerating negotiations with China to acquire Chengdu J-10C multirole fighter jets, a move prompted by the failure of a long-anticipated deal with Russia for Su-35 aircraft. The decision comes on the heels of a bruising 12-day conflict between Israel and the United States, which exposed critical vulnerabilities in Iran’s aging air force and air defense systems.
Tehran’s pivot to Beijing, reported by Iran’s Khorasan newspaper…
Honestly I don’t recall there ever being a deal between Iran and Russia for planes. Endless rumours but that is about it. @Slavyangrad
Do not ever forget the Uranium One deal under Obama and Hilary Clinton. OR Obama’s pallets of cash sent to Iran. Were they setting-up the USA, or Russia?
As one example of the CIA connections of these organizations, consider the disclosure by John Gilligan, Director of AID during the Carter administration (1977-81).
….Ann Dunham, had been associated during the 1970s and 80s — as employee, consultant, grantee, or student — with at least five organizations with intimate CIA connections during the Cold War: The Ford Foundation, Agency for International Development (AID), the Asia Foundation, Development Alternatives, Inc., and the East-West Center of Hawaii.[5] Much of this time she worked as an anthropologist in Indonesia and Hawaii, being in good position to gather intelligence about local communities.
As one example of the CIA connections of these organizations, consider the disclosure by John Gilligan, Director of AID during the Carter administration (1977-81). “At one time, many AID field offices were infiltrated from top to bottom with CIA people. The idea was to plant operatives in every kind of activity we had overseas, government, volunteer, religious, every kind.”[6] And Development Alternatives, Inc. is the organization for whom Alan Gross was working when arrested in Cuba and charged with being part of the ongoing American operation to destabilize the Cuban government…

The reality is that Netanyahu attacked Iran not primarily to prevent a nuclear weapon but to prevent a nuclear agreement between and . He was key in driving Trump to leave the original JCPOA deal, and now wanted to prevent a new one. https://t.co/SyeWrj0Mfl

After all, when is the last time the “Joint Terrorism Task Force” actually arrested a real live foreign terrorist, and not a “racist” American livestreamer, a politically convenient “red flag law” patsy, or a box of documents from a former President?
It’s kinda funny, but when I saw the biography of the Palm Beach sheriff who helped the EVIL FIB raid President Trump, I could not help but notice the letters “JTTF“.
You see, I knew what that meant. “Joint Terrorism Task Force“.
But the difference was, THIS TIME, I knew EXACTLY who those “terrorists” are, that “JTTF” was designed to go after.
That’s right, American brothers and sisters.
It’s YOU and ME who are the “terrorists” JTTF was created for.
And maybe Presidents that YOU and ME might vote for.
It took me a while to figure out why the “JTTF” just keeps growing and growing – and expanding and expanding – when actual, real terrorism just keeps declining here in America.
WE are the “terrorists” they’re going to go after.
WE are the “domestic violent extremists” they will pursue.
WE are the dangerous people who require a special group of state and local law enforcement agencies who are forced to follow the FBI’s “training” and “lead”.
Yeah, baby, you see where this is going now, don’t you?
But let me explain just a bit more.
I got clued into this “JTTF” back when a harmless but crazy guy who I christened “Red Flag Poster Boy” happened on the scene in Portland Oregon.
Intro: Comey’s Giant Plot I’m surprised it took me THIS LONG to see how Comey’s multi-layered scam worked, but hey – James Comey is one slick bastard, as you can tell from his long and complex play against President Trump. Why, Comey’s REALLY BIG PLOT is still unfolding right now. His CRAP is of an …
If you bother to read that rather long article, you’ll see that I know a thing or two about how patsies, informants, and other politically useful victims are “groomed” by the FBI.
You can skip over this article unless you’re dying to know everything about this patsy, “Red Flag Poster Boy”, and my opinions about how he was created.
The main point being that this dubious if not hilarious “politically perfect” guy showed up outside the MAYOR of Portland’s house, making the perfect case for “red flag laws” in Oregon – and maybe even nationally, thanks to the convenient national media coverage. AND this whole episode was handled by – YOU GUESSED IT – the “JTTF” in Oregon – which didn’t want to give too many details to the press – at least, beyond the original “propaganda payload”. It was all very “McCabe”, so to speak.
The FBI declined to provide additional details about the case or answer questions submitted by The Oregonian/OregonLive.
“The Portland JTTF’s role is to assess, address, and mitigate any given threat against the people of Oregon appropriately,” Beth Anne Steele, a spokeswoman for the bureau’s Portland office said in an email Friday.
“Sometimes that mitigation takes the form of criminal prosecution, and sometimes it involves a holistic response, including consultation with threat assessment teams or others to divert a person before a significant violent crime occurs.”
So JTTF is looking pretty sketchy at that point, but it gets worse.
If you think that the FBI had a bad look here, “taking a knee” with BLM….
…..wait until you see what’s next.
If you combine those folks right there with their “JTTF” local gophers, and send them all on a mission to take down a “racist livestreamer on Telegram”, you get THIS, as featured on “Yahoo / ATT Something”:
Feds Arrest White Supremacist Livestreamer in Dawn Raid, Rattling Supporters
Will Sommer
March 2, 2021·2 min read
The FBI arrested a notorious white supremacist livestreamer in an early morning raid in Florida on Tuesday.
FBI agents, working with Fort Lauderdale police and the FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force, arrested Paul N. Miller, 32, on one charge of being a “convicted felon in possession of a firearm.” The FBI said in a press release that Miller was arrested without incident.
Miller’s neighbors in Fort Lauderdale’s Riverside neighborhood reported hearing flashbangs during the raid, which took place around 5 a.m. ET, local TV station NBC 6 reported. One neighbor described seeing law enforcement officers carrying out a box that appeared to have “a shotgun on the front or an AK.”
Miller, who goes by the name “Gypsy Crusader” online, has amassed more than 40,000 followers on Telegram, a messaging app and social media network popular with far-right extremists. Many of Miller’s videos feature him dressing up as characters like the Joker or Nintendo’s Mario, then hurling racial abuse at strangers, including children, through the randomized chat app Omegle. Miller can be seen holding a gun in some of his videos.
A grand jury indicted Miller on the firearms charge on Feb. 25, according to court records unsealed Tuesday. Miller is charged with illegally possessing a gun on Jan. 17, 2018. The indictment doesn’t describe the 2018 incident in which Miller allegedly had the firearm.
Miller’s Tuesday arrest sent shockwaves through internet extremist circles. Miller had recently sold patches promoting his channel to his supporters, with his arrest raising fears among other extremists that the FBI could access his customer files and find out their own names and addresses.
In messages captured by extremism researcher Hilary Sargent, Miller’s supporters worried about the possibility that they could soon become FBI targets themselves.
If convicted, Miller faces up to 10 years in prison on the gun charge.
Just read this crap. I mean, REALLY?
We have a guy who doesn’t actually appear to be a violent criminal, but who used a gun as a prop in videos, and who uses “racist” language, being arrested by the “JTTF” for using the gun as a prop when not being able to own guns – at least, that’s what it looks like to me.
Racist language? Owning a gun when “not allowed”? And you called out the freaking “Joint Terrorism Task Force”? Because you could label him a “white supremacist”?
He’s a fucking “YouTuber” who’s not even on YouTube! He’s a PUTZ. He’s a NEBBISH.
Crap. From the looks of it, he’s not even “white” – or could claim more “POC” clout than most “spokespocs” out there. The dude is the Shaun King of AOCs if he wants it.
This is BULLSHIT and you all KNOW IT.
This guy was arrested because he makes fun of REGIME VALUES and has a following online.
Some fat angry libtard purple-haired trans lesbian doxxer presumably phoned it in that the guy had a gun but had something on his record – AMIRIGHT?
And the FBI is now being PUSHED to make everything about “domestic violent extremism” – AMIRIGHT?
And “white supremacist” – which he likely isn’t even THAT in reality – is close enough for media hand grenades – AMIRIGHT?
Because that is how you have to build up your army to go after conservatives when January Sixth didn’t give you all the amount of PRETEXT you needed – AMIRIGHT?
Look, friends. Nothing good is going to come from continuing this JTTF charade.
JTTF is a way for bizarre, messed-up, leftist FBI values to undermine sane state, county, and local law enforcement.
SHUT THIS SHIT DOWN. GET OUT OF IT. TELL THE FEDS TO GO HOME TO WASHINGTON.
You know it’s the right thing to do. And if you don’t, it will only bring trouble.
Mark my words.
W
THIS IS NOT REALITY, OTHER THAN THE VERY VISIBLE POLITICS. THIS IS HOLLYWOOD EMOTIONAL SALES.
My hope is that you have invested time into the HOH series. I believe you will find it worth it starting today if you have questioned the commitment. I wanted to shorten this one. Impossible. It simply has too many nuggets to shorten.
There is a soothing peace one receives in his or her spirit when he or she is no longer chained to the expectations of others and the world. The black hats will still throw their spears at you. Friends and loved ones will still disappoint you on occasion. The bank account and gas tank may run low along with your patience. However, you know what you know and evil can no longer have access to your heart and soul. Your wisdom and discernment regarding what you see and experience grow rapidly.
At this point in life in the mid-90’s my personal rebuilding project had begun. I received confirmation quickly that my career choice was blessed as there was early success. Even back then I was doing what now is in vogue, working from a bedroom office at home, calling on prospects and referral sources at their places of business while taking them to lunch occasionally. Using an old school approach with personal service. My faith journey at church and at home began to evolve quickly.
Almost a year after I left my ill-fated job with the equipment dealer, our lives would change dramatically through a very difficult experience that proved to be priceless in value. We learned the Godly principle that our prayers are always answered, just not always as expected. This will be discussed in a future story with more Goober Gump adventures.
Let’s begin with: Are you aware you can commit a federal white collar crime, whether with intent or not, in such a way that it is difficult to prosecute in criminal court, or, can be sheltered by the alphabets in a legal and judicial way to make it appear difficult to prosecute? A constructed situation on both sides of justice, which they will then allow you to buy your way out of potential prosecution in a federal investigation. Sort of a federal pre-trial or even pre-charge intervention. Maybe you have heard about this or suspected it happened.
You are about to learn MOAR! I’ll try not to bore our attorney/legal expert Qtreepers on here who know far more about the specifics than I do. However, average folks may want to know the method exists and a summary of how it works with an example.
Guess which POTUS exponentially increased the usage of that negotiated settlement in civil court for criminal claims maneuver? There’s that name again – Slick. HW’s good buddy. Cranked it up in the mid-1990’s while causing raised eyebrows in the legal community; definition of “is” being what it “is” and all.
Guess which past AG paved the way for its higher usage going back to PRR and as AG for HW? Yeah, this guy…
Some of us PRR fans will remember B2’s impassioned defense of the use of pardons, which was highlighted in the Iran-Contra mess. He pushed them across the finish line later for HW. As far as the previously referenced negotiated settlement of potential charges or trial issue, in a largely scrubbed TV interview in discussion of the bad cops in the FBI who were exposed during the Mueller Investigation and FISA scandals, he stated that not all criminal actions of government employees should rise to the level of imprisonment (paraphrased from memory). He clearly indicated that bad cops like Comey, McCabe, etc. losing their jobs and possibly their pensions was probably enough unless they were proven to have committed more heinous crimes. What could be more heinous to America than committing treason with foreign nations and conspirators to frame a sitting POTUS? In essence B2 promotes softening the landing of the players with pardons and negotiated settlements for gotcha’s and caughtya’s regardless of intent. He set up a system that gives discretionary authority to DODGE and the judiciary.
At the same time he covers for this discretionary administration of justice principle he pushed across by lamenting and bashing the two scales of justice we see today.
We did, jackwad. They stole the elections and you knew they would before it happened.
Hypocrite. May not have been the mastermind, but he was the promoter and implementer of two scales of justice over a long period of time. B2’s a card carrying member of the inner circle of The Club who has been activated as needed. Sundance has stated rightly, he’s the Bondo.
We can even begin to see why PDT agreed to bring him in as AG to kill the corrupt Mueller farce, which would better protect those he hired and family members.
We can also see serious potential downside of these pre-trial/charge interventions with how they can be used to extort people not in or involved with The Club via false allegations and charges such that bad cops can rip them off for money that goes into the alphabets’ coffers. We can also see where it is used by those in power to achieve nefarious purposes with payback being escape from charges and trial if caught.
Which begs the question – where do the real intervention case settlement funds and the extorted money go after collection? I confess to not knowing the answer, but I am quite sure it does not go for the benefit of We the People.
We have now established the predicate for what happens next.
In addition to media reports and other personal experiences; the legal sources of my information about interventions were senior partners in the law firm of now deceased GOP Senator Howard Baker. He of Watergate, Senate Majority and Minority leader fame. For what it is worth, one of the senior partners was a business associate and a lifelong Democrat. That says something about the Uniparty for those paying attention.
Pilot’s Progress
As previously discussed, Pilot was flying even higher through the period. I will no longer bore you with a lot of operational detail, just will discuss key events in their history that are important for seeing how The Club works a bit better. The official Pilot Flying J corporate history is available for all to see on the web.
My personal involvement with the Haslam’s stopped at this point, however, what I learned from others in the local business and legal community continued. I learned I was not alone in my reformulation of opinions about Big Jim, Jimmy and others in the Haslam family’s circle of influence, which included many attorneys and business associates. At this point Big Jim was less involved with daily operations due to age and other interests, yet, used his profile and influence in other ways. Philanthropy, sports, UT and politics appeared to dominate his and Natalie’s days. As an example The Warrior Queen highly benefited from Big Jim’s and the local Club’s support. With the huge, newly constructed Thompson-Boling Arena opening in 1987, the largest on campus facility in America at that time, the basketball floor was later named The Summitt as the Lady Vols program became the gold standard in women’s collegiate athletics. Pilot sponsored all UT sports programs and athletic events since Big Jim was carrying a big stick at the university along with a handful of other wealthy businessmen, boosters and donors.
However, the following made a lot in my circle wonder about the reality at the time. Pilot sponsored an annual Chamber or Rotary (cannot remember – does it matter?) event at the Hyatt that I attended with this guy as keynote speaker…
NEW YORK, NY – OCTOBER 22: Ted Turner attends the 2014 Global Leadership Dinner at Cipriani 42nd Street on October 22, 2014 in New York City. (Photo by Mike Pont/FilmMagic)
Fidel’s comrade. That along with many other horrible things he said, did and promoted.
Then there was this guy who spoke at UT as recently as 2013. The same UT where the Haslam family donated millions to build the Howard H. Baker, Jr. Center for Public Policy. Better known as the Future Uniparty Student Development Center.
H/T to Wolf for the photo reminder today…
Before Brokaw and after Turner, there was Tim Russert as keynote speaker at the Hyatt sponsored by Pilot among others. It finally dawned on me years later that a key groomer and intermediary into it all was Mr DIY himself, GOP RINO Ross Bagwell…
Ross with daughter, Dee Haslam
Ross went to NY to finish school. Afterwards he went to work at NBC – media home to all things globalist. He was introduced and worked with the Uniparty globalists and brought methodology back home to Knoxville and to inject into state GOP politics. He connected the Haslam family tighter to the politics and media in DC and NY, including marrying Dee into the family.
Think about the subtle ramifications. Pilot sponsored an evil globalist business/media mogul commie along with two globalist commie media hacks to speak at globalist events to spread more commie propaganda to whoever would listen in a nationally perceived red flyover hillbilly state.
Maybe Tennessee was not the red flyover hillbilly state the MSM portrayed it to be. Maybe it was being operated undercover, sort of like Arkansas. More on that in later Goober Gump stories.
But I am getting ahead of this story, so back to the Pilot history at the turn of the century. Big Jim really had taught his boys the business. Jimmy had continued to assert himself and company control with his no holds barred management style and borderline ethics, which was not Bill’s style at all. Bill was more thoughtful, analytical and reflective in his approach; with a nature more like his deceased mother. After twenty years in the family business he had learned a great deal, handled his role well, and become wealthy. However, his heart was elsewhere and he no longer seemed to want to play the game with Jimmy anymore. He left and appeared to have employment flings with Saks and Harold’s. In reality he needed something to do while GOP RINO Victor Ashe was finishing his second term as Knoxville’s Mayor. He needed time to prepare out of the spotlights of Knoxville and Pilot. What better way to do it than by spending time in NY with Saks and other globalists while learning the ropes for a few years. Realizing another big opportunity, Big Jim pulled in the GOP support and the campaign began. Bill’s sister, Ann, even campaigned for him door to door. Bill won with 53% of the vote. Politics became another family enterprise.
The key events of Pilot from the 90’s forward were about going nationwide and becoming even more dominant. It led again to partnering up with old friends, Marathon, in 2001. This time they rolled in 223 travel centers into one investment entity that included the centers I had underwritten and our bank participation financing handled a decade before. Marathon had merged with Ashland and grown their supply to handle much more volume. They saw the joint ownership opportunity as an investment for future marketshare and capital if their interest was ever sold.
In 2010 they merged the company with anther industry stalwart, Flying J. The combined company was then over 550 travel centers with Pilot having management and Board control. They had grown to top ten nationally in privately held businesses for market value. In 2017, the ownership sold a 38% ownership stake to Berkshire Hathaway. With the deal Buffett and Berkshire also gained the rights to buy up to an 80% stake in Pilot Flying J in 2023. The company now has over 750 travel centers in the U. S. and Canada while doing over $20 Billion in revenues annually.
After decades of honest intent as well as intentional deception, acceptance into the inner circle of The Club will be complete next year. But it did not happen the way it was planned or anticipated.
NFL & White Collar Crime
As stated in Part One, Jimmy and Dee are controlling owners of the Cleveland Browns. They paid $1 B+ for it from Randy Lerner in 2012. Jimmy had set his sights on NFL team ownership well before then. He was able to purchase an ownership interest in the gold standard org of the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2008. With that experience he was accepted into the NFL owners’ inner circle, which made the purchase of the Browns easier to get done. It is interesting that the Times of Israel reported the purchase ended 51 consecutive years of Jewish ownership of the team. Maybe the purchase of the Browns was coincidental. However, the stadium for the team is located just 15 minutes away from the headquarters of Pilot Flying J’s primary competitor, TravelCenters of America.
Soon the highs of realizing that long held dream and love for a sport would be nuked into the low point in their company’s history. Unannounced, FIB walked into the Knoxville headquarters of Pilot Flying J in 2013. They left with everything they needed to make a strong federal criminal case against key personnel in the company with Jimmy himself under the microscope. Seems key senior management, including the Pilot President, Mark Hazelwood, had knowingly participated in a scheme to steal contracted rebates from many commercial trucking company accounts over a period of 5 years. Millions of dollars were involved and the participants received part of the ill-gotten gain as personal income with Pilot Flying J pocketing the rest. There were blatant racist statements and defamation of some of their less sophisticated commercial customers on tapes made by a whistleblower turned informant.
Jimmy pled ignorance. Audio tapes recorded by the whistleblower seemed to indicate otherwise. The statements made about less sophisticated commercial customers by several managers started a firestorm that was uncontrollable.
So he followed the raid with these remarks at a hastily called press conference:
As a result in a wise move, Pilot Flying J and Jimmy decided they better cut deals. As part of the deals, they agreed to continue to pay for legal representation of the employees that contested federal charges until their cases were adjudicated. The media questioned why would they do that if the employees violated company policies and the law? Jimmy claimed it was company “tradition” to do so. Or, in my opinion it was code for, “It’s payment for them to keep quiet and protect my tail.” You decide.
Word is that the mess cost them $190+ million in federal fines and customer restitution along with taking it on the chin with many commercial corporate clients. The tapes were damning. Many lower level staff members and managers pled guilty for plea deals after coming clean with details. A handful of senior mangers, including Hazelwood fought on. Interestingly, he lost in his first trial. That judge is African American with Hazelwood being white. He filed an appeal for a new trial as he felt he was not treated fairly at all through the proceedings. He made charges of reverse discrimination against the judge during his first trial. His request for a new trial was approved by a federal appellate court this year, along with that of two other employees. In essence, Jimmy’s crony that knows the extent of his boss’ involvement is working a path toward freedom or a reduced sentence/fine that is being provided through the judicial system. That is happening combined with the statute of limitations running out for charging Jimmy in April 2018. Shocked face…
That statute of limitations expired about 6 months after the 38.6% interest in the company was purchased by Berkshire. It would appear that DODGE gave the all clear to Buffett to complete the deal as Jimmy remained the Chairman and the family retained 50.1% majority interest with the provision that Berkshire would purchase an additional 41.4% in 2023, leaving them with the remaining 20% interest.
The fines Pilot willingly agreed to pay the feds were related to a negotiated financial settlement to avoid trial expenses and potentially even higher losses. There was no Weissmann, Enron style attacks. I guess Andrew was too busy with other legal schemes at the time. More likely he knew they were Club members. We would never be granted access to see it all, but I can almost guarantee there was a personal check or funds transfer written by Jimmy for a settlement of criminal claims against him through the civil system. No admission of guilt required, no public release of documents, and on with life.
With this behind him, Jimmy has turned his attention to pro sports and trying to make the Browns better while buying franchises in other pro sports. In a typical, tone deaf move he recently made a deal with the Houston Texans for Deshaun Watson as their QB. The same Watson who has been accused of sexual advances and harassment by over 25 masseuses and been suspended by the NFL for one or more seasons, who recently wrote checks to settle over 20 of the lawsuits. Right up Jimmy’s alley. All while they disrespected their existing injured starting QB, Baker Mayfield, who they later unceremoniously traded to Carolina. Use ’em, abuse ’em and toss ’em away when they become less useful.
A sign in the lobby of Pilot Flying J headquarters says, “We do the right thing — Integrity comes first.” Big Jim had it installed there decades ago. See the above referenced scandals.
Big Jim was quoted in an ESPN story not long after the FIB raid. “You ask what I’m proudest of Jimmy for?” Big Jim says. “It’s how he’s handled all this since April 15. It’s just like I would’ve hoped he’d handle it. He realizes he’s in charge and he’s going to stay in charge.
“We’ve learned a lot, and nothing like this will ever happen again.”
Revealing, huh? Apple did not fall far from the tree it appears. Why did it happen at all, Big Jim? I mean, it was five years of it. That’s not a mistake. It appears you are covering for your son and company getting caught, not for having done it. Are we supposed to believe nothing like that had ever occurred under your watch?
Words mean one thing, actions frequently mean another. The Club uses money and media influence to cover the intent and purpose as needed.
Some things never change. But when you are in the inner circle of The Club, what does it matter? Pay some money after mistakes and scandals and they simply go away. There will be even more money to make up for it when you get to play in the bigger leagues. Like what was announced last week.
In recap, we have Berkshire controlling Burlington Northern railroad which transports oil, fuel, fertilizer, etc.; while Dem politicians are shutting down oil and gas pipelines; while the RINO’s stand down with their thumbs up their arses; while Berkshire buys 80% control of Pilot to have the largest fuel distribution network for commercial trucking in North America; who has entered into a national EV charging network arrangement that caters to GM’s EV vehicle expansion; while buddy Gates and others globalists and nations who hate us are buying up farmland and into food production of all types. And so it goes on and on.
Yeah, the RINO’s are as thick as thieves with the Dems. They plan to do the green idiocy anyway. Follow the money. They don’t even need congressional approval and they certainly don’t care about the desires of We the People. Be informed. The moderate (RINO) wing of the GOP has been controlled opposition for over 70 years. The only person on the planet who has been proven able to stop it and reverse course for We the People is named Donald J. Trump, along with the help of his supporters and patriots.
As far as where We the People stand, we either acknowledge we are in a civil war and fight it, or just go quietly into the good night. Fighting well does not necessarily include violence, but it does include the righteous delivery of justice and truth as each situation may demand.
We will conclude the HOH series with some what ifs and other stuff with the next part. It’s time to have some fun, get some R&R, jump into some rabbit holes, make some observations and ask some thought provoking questions. Until next time…
We present here a TRANSCRIPT of a very long video from THE PROFESSOR’S RECORD, in which Prof. David Clements interviews Col. John Mills.
THANK YOU to GAIL COMBS for transcribing this terribly long but absolutely amazing interview.
Col. Mills reveals STARTLING information about so much – right out of the gate, he exposes the 2016 coup against Trump, and then goes right into the looming WORLD WAR WITH CHINA.
Then he goes back and fills in the details.
It’s well worth listening to, but if you want to find any of the AMAZING details later, this transcript will help. You can SEARCH this post and find where things are discussed.
Here you go – 21 pages of interview broken up into SEVEN PIECES.
I have made a few very minor spelling corrections on critical things like names. Otherwise – RAW.
1.
ROUGH TRANSCRIPT
It IS A COUP Comey & Brennan KNEW Russia was FAKE in summer 2016 but pushed the dis-info anyway. Col Mills was called on secure phone a couple days after the election to help “We need you to be part of and help craft and finish the narrative that Trump is a Russian Spy we need an intell community assessment.
Col Phil Waldron introduced to Prof.
Mills had a 35+ year security carreer.
1st Gulf war….
We are in the final stages in a world wide collision with China… we have to stare down China from going full kinetic because they are under incredible duress at home. As bad as it is here, there are incredibly bad things going on in China that force dictators to lash out.
12 minutes Different Commanders in Chief
Carter Carter hapless fecklessness powerless Sound familiar? Rapid colapse of Iran closest model of what we saw in Kabul. Carter was the original Obama & Biden. It was our fault. WE were the problem Like the british socialists in the UK who unseated Churchill, Carter was all about GRACEFUL DECLINE & Dis-establishment of the USA. Managed Decline.
Reagan Return of America. A Can Do positive attitute. As messed up as we are we are the best thing out there.
Bush Senior Status quo Republicans. We are LIKE DEMOCRATS EXCEPT BETTER. Not a good sales point. Panama, Gulf war. Not interested in economy
Clinton Un Peace keeping involvement, increased role of government Nat security advisor IDed al-Qaeda as major problem but Cliton did nothing which lead to 9/11. Didn’t realize til sent to Joint staff at pentagon exposed to an incredible amount of military planning that went on in 97 & 98 & 99 after the bombings Khobar towers, American embassies, major planning to go after Bin Laden. Everyone of the plans briefed to the White House and TURNED DOWN.
Bush Senior Bush was status Quo establishment. Afghanistan done well until pivoted vocus to Iraq I think there was a close connection to Iraq.
18:30 – Dave Asks what is the difference between ‘Managed Decline’ and non-interventionist foreign policy. [ Washington avoid foreign entanglements] & Reagan peace thru strength. Both concerned with the JUST WAR DOCTRINE. Constitution ‘Declare’ War not MAKE war which seems to mean we have to be ATTACKED. Trump response fierce. War hawks equate Non-intervensionist = isolationism.
What is difference between Managed Decline and non interventionist policy. The Bushes seemed to want to get us into every conflict to some degree. Trump to his credit is not the guy who says let’s go to war with everyone.
20:20 Col Mills I think there is a significant difference. Managed decline is we are not that different we are just like everyone else. The British Socialists turned the British Empire into a socialist state that was totally focused on a cradle to grave massive expansion of social services that is unsustainable. Focused on making the citizen [actually SUBJECT] a ward of the state because we are hapless feckless and without the state could not survive. So it is a different concept.
I am a big believer in the Trump Doctrine. We are going to minimize our conflict. We are going to minimize our foreign involvement BUT deterrents and capability are always going to be there to deter conflict. But if you cross a red line we are going to hit you so hard you are not going to know what happened.
That is different from the Bushes which is this perpetual: we are always going to be massively deployed forward in conflict.
22 minutes: Dave: most people have made up mind on whether should have been in Afghanistan or Iraq. Later faulty reports on weapons of mass destruction. Bushes & Clinton forever wars They were fine with us over extended ourselves until there was no sense of mission no sense of victory no sense of coming home. Bushes would wrap themselves in American Flag. I didn’t like that. We were still holding on to 9/11 which what ever the causes, brought us together briefly.
But that changed with Obama, where we were apologetic for our greatness. Apologetic for everything.
23:45 Col Mills: It is this leading from the rear, It’s this kind of third person, we’re in the bleachers wathing, we are going to let others take the lead. This makes no sense. We had the most capability, we are the most influential. I have done so much in the Special Op community and the office of sec of defense, so much international partner collaboration and partner building. THEY DESPERATELY WANT OUR LEADERSHIP!
And the Carter, Clinton Obama mentality is We’re the cause of the problem, by us even saying anything we are causing problems, so we’re going to let YOU LEAD THE CONVERSATION. When in actuality, most of these countries, the reason they are even dialogging with us is they look up to us. They desperately want to know what we have to say, they desperately want to say, your the greatest country in the world, SHARE WITH US. TALK TO US TELL US. And instead they get this John Kerry abstract lecturing that no one can make any sense out of…. They DESPISE being lectured to in the abstract about multilateral-ism, about all these Belfer Center Concepts. It’s like give me something tangible and actionable.
That is why I totally reject everyones comment that Oh. They didn’t like Trump. Actually I was in a lot of those meetings And THEY LOVED TRUMP because he was CLEAR with ACTIONABLE with TANGIBLE and when he spoke that had umph that had gravitous behind it.
25:54 Dave: He was also a threat in the sense that he looked at the cost/benefit. He’s a guy in deal making. He knows a good deal vs a bad deal. And business was great for the Haliburtons, business was great for the ‘primes’ if you will, prime contractors. BUT they were not in the business of the Tax Payer getting a bargain and TRUMP THREATENED THAT by saying what is the international community doing. Are they holding up their end of the bargain. How much tax payer money is going to maintain their security in countries we have been in for a very long time. That made him public enemy #1 for the military Industrial complex.
2.
Dave: Let me switch gears. In 2008, at start of Obama years what were you doing.
27 minutes Col Mills: I was actually on the nat’l Security Council at the White House at the tail end of the Bush year & beginning of Obama. I was the senior dept. defence rep for what was called the Comprehensive Cyber Security Initiative. Most of it is unclassified. But was a massive ramp up of American cyper security capabilities. The Largest. Not all have been unclassified. It was one of my tasks during Obama years. It took us 18 months to de-classifiy certain potions of it. Democrats spend 60 to 90 days reviewing previous Admin.
It goes back to Dick Clarke, in 2002 & 2003. (Carter) In addition to IDing Al Qaeda, Bin Laden and saw our greatest strategic liability as our cyber vulnerabilities. Which lead to the CNCI program being established in 2007.
So the Obama admin reviewed it and not only did they like it, THEY LOVED IT, AND THEY WANTED MORE OF IT! And they wanted to pour gasoline on it. Because it provided breathtaking and magical capabilities. Which lead to some of the abuses we discovered later during SPYGATE. As to my shock, many of these collection capabilities actually were foundational to SPYGATE.
29:15 Dave OK so we survive 8 years of attack on foundational things we THOUGHT WERE SACROSANCT, like health care from a Constitutional stand point. & Obamacare, we had the rise of Edward Snowden & the disclosures that were there. And then you have this last year of the Obama Admin where most people were betting on Hillary Clinton getting a shot. You have an upset, but not an upset for the American people. he seemed to be invincible. Thanks to the Apprentice people knew him and had a sense of who he was so he was able to brush off attacks that would have destroyed any other candidate.
So you have this period of time and you also have General Mike Flynn in the midst of his time with the Defense Intelligence agency. Trump likes what he is hearing from this guy, so there are a lot of moving parts. So what I want you to drill down now is, during that transition, Col John Mills, what were you seeing in real time and perhaps, what were you asked to do by the various heads of different agencies.
31:45 minutes: Col Mills It on one hand it is complex and on the other it is simple. With this ramp-up of cyber capabilities, which provided an intoxicating increase year per year in the ability to collect big data and use big data analytics at cyber speed to make sense and take action. And there is a lot more behind what I am talking about which I am not allowed to say. But if you were to stand on the watch floors of these major centers and watch and see the simultaneous capabilities it was breath taking.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> FBI watching terrorist but doing NOTHING, yet goad and lead and go after Patriots.
Haney murder called suicide.
What purpose of Afghanistan, Taliban, open borders???? FALSE FLAG??? SEE: Napolitano
33 minutes Dave: So let me stop here. Most people don’t have.. Don’t share anything you can’t. Are you talking about a ?borg? movie and being able to in like a work room… the immediacy of finding information, whether it is surveillance through video, OR…. Col Mills : ALL OF THE ABOVE Dave: OK, so that’s not just Hollywood. So we have the ability to drill down and have a map of everyone’s LIFE, really. If you look at the metadata it tells us so much.
33 minutes – Col Mills: It really matured in 2012 under General Keith Alexander, and we also created Cyber Command in addition to NSA. But yes, the simultaneous capability to collect data of all kinds, pictures, voice traffic, data packages, data traffic machine to machine, internet, etc… Monitor Collect and INTEGRATE ALL OF THESE, it was an incredible capability.
Dave: Where do you come down on that. I am a small l libertarian. Libertarians are considered so naive because of the very things you are talking about. But at the same time we have got this thing called the Bill of Rights. we’ve got this thing called the fourth Amendment, we’ve got this thing called an OATH and I know you had to take to uphold and defend the Constitution.
What happens to the 4th Amendment. Have you had to do a gut check to be in the intel community. OK I know what I swore an oath to, I know what it says, something about having probable cause, someone being suspected of a crime, and yet many of the disclosures of Snowden shows that. No this was bulk collection thru a FISA Court, it is almost like a rubber stamp.
Explain to us. That might be a question a lot of us would like to ask is how do you reconcile the machine that you didn’t create but you are in the soup, right, How do you make sense of this by being a good soldier or someone who is serving my country while knowing this has got to be dangerous. It is almost like splitting the atom. Good stuff but a lot of bad stuff could happen.
35:20 – Col Mills Well this is a, again the alliance between the US Government and Google and Big Tech, didn’t really.. I was there the first few years of the Obama admin & there was a dance. But they came together in 2010, 2012 and to address your specific question, I have mentioned the word INTOXICATING. That is the challenge, once this magic is unleashed, and policy makers appointed or elected or carreerists start to see the capabilities it becomes INTOXICATING and it is no longer can we the question a reasonable person who has taken an oath to the Constitution should be raising is should we. And do we have the proper control mechanisms. Are people who are doing this doing it for the correct and right purposes. And I think the challenge is the collection far surpassed the standing checks such as the FISA process. It totally swamped and overwhelmed it.
This is where POTUS Trump’s term the Swamp and the Deep State. At first when I first heard those terms I was going I don’t know what they mean and after a while I realized I’m IN IT. I help to create this!
We need more & more White Hats to stand up and question this because these capabilities have begun to be used in mass against the American People to suppress and censor. We are facing an absolutely unprecedented Iron Curtain of censorship, that that, I do not mean this pejoratively or simplistically. Liberals always like to bemoan the McCarthy era, well I go there is only one person, if you understand history, that lost there job and that was McCarthy. Everyone else came out far better who were on “The Blacklist” Well I am sorry but this is McCarthyism on steroids, what we are dealing with right now. A lot of the foundational tools and capabilities were created for originally good purposes. [SEE: Haney above] Of course we want to track terrorists but we also have people who are in power now who have a very interesting definition of ‘Terrorist’ and they are using these capabilities in the wrong direction and the wrong way.
3.
38:25 Dave The next question I want to ask you picking up from what you just said is, You have this thing that I’ve heard of and it’s Hammer and Scorecard. Is this real? [@ ~38:45 you can see Col Mills stifle a laugh] What do you know about Hammer and Scorecard. You talk of the Cyber Strategic Command, this unholy alliance between Google, the Obama Administration around 2012. But a lot of this stuff you are talking about is alarming for a couple reasons. Because when I was a prosecutor I learned about this system called Prism. [ @ ~39:15 Col Mills starts nodding.] And Prism was being used in a way where the DEA was giving tips to other law enforcement agencies and of course the prosecutors weren’t informed. Because if we knew the source of the tip, you have to disclose it under Brady vs Maryland. Under the confrontation clause everyone, everyone who is criminally accused should be able to ask questions of the people in the system. [@ ~39:35 Col Mills smile widens] And they created this way of training to hide and keep secret Prism so you had parallel reconstruction. [Nods again]
So when you talk about this intoxicating power, WOW so if you can keep this secret, [@39:55 BIG NOD] we can start GAMING the way we go after ‘Bad People’ [opens mouth and shakes head] and perhaps in the ‘name of GOOD’ get a result but violate certain Constitutional protections where we are actually as big a lawbreakers as the people we are going after. [Nods again]
I know PRISM is different than Hammer and Scorecard, but a lot of these terms we hear about and it is almost like this mythic thing. But it is becoming more relevant now because we have watched Mike Lindell’s Cyber Symposium. We’ve seen what appears to be packet captures. And a lot of people are saying where did this stuff come from. Is there a plausible theory based on sources since that seems to be the Million Dollar Question. Maybe you can’t answer that, but I was at the Cyber Symposium, [Col Mills’ eyes shift to left several times] I tried to ask everyone and their Mom, as a Law prof, I do not know where to even begin to ask those questions. Since I have you here, I know I just threw a lot at you. — UMMM HAMMER & SCORECARD, what do we need to know about that….
41:26 Col Mills OK, under the laws regarding Top Secret there is essentially a 25 year embargo on top secret level information, so I will obfuscate here [Dave laughs, OK] But I think you are hitting the nail on the head. These capabilities easily pervert what was originally what was on white hats mind on… We all want to see justice done. We want to see lawful civil society. We want to see bad people put away. But unfortunately unless you constantly check yourself or there is a way you are held accountable, and there are control measures on the floor at NSA and other intelligence centers and during main operations. You have to be careful. I would say up until recently it was very common to self-report when you accidentally collected on an American. That was considered right and noble and those things happened…. Have to call in the lawyers….
I think unfortunately with some it was past that where it became a tee-hee, tee-hee LOOK AT WHAT WE CAN DO. And LOOK at how we can SPY on someone who has just become nominated as a candidate to become President. Tee-hee, tee-hee, let’s all go up to Fort Mead and have a small group meeting. And share the information tee-hee, tee-hee.
So I think the challenge is the lack of transparency, the velocity of collection, the exponential increase in the ability to collect. It really throws a lot of the accepted norms and practices out the window. Because it is now the J Edger Hoover mentality that takes over. Where who cares we are the final arbitrators of goodness, therefore That’s OUR CALL AND WE ARE GOING TO DO IT.
43:58 – Dave You gave me the best non-answer I have ever heard.
But you let me know why, so I am hearing from John Mills that you can neither confirm nor deny the existence of a certain program.
@44:10 – Col Mills On Hammer & Scorecard I will say I have been part of so many darned named operations and code words, sometimes it gets a little foggy in my mind. But there were cabilities developed and this was back during … I will group Hammer & Scorecard if it did exist.. crossed with the capabilities during the 2005 to 2008… so even before Obama was on board.
I call these remote access capabilities. Which, I am not going to name the person, but back in the 80s kinda pioneered the original remote access through dial-up. I kinda call Ferris Bueller’s Day Off [https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0091042/] There is this one gentleman he is fairly well known, and he no longer works for the agency, he is retired. And actually he was out in your neck of the woods there at one of the Labs and held one of the Chair Seats out there. And he pioneered the access thru dial-ups [Dave is chuckling & nodding ] Which is the first generation of remote access and he was going WOW, just like Ferris Bueller was going and figuring out how to access and change grades. So people went WOW, I can just dial-up and change anything I want to, this is cool! So some crazy things went on.
@45:50 – DAVE I am going to move on, but the reason I am asking the question maybe to plant the seed for some questions ahead.
Is the mechanism of how, cyber interference took place in 2020, 2018, 2016, [@46:15 Col Mills nods] The tools of the trade..
The question I want to ask anyone because I am operating on blind faith, is that you have got this very public campaign, of Mike Lindell [Col’s Eyes shift left] putting his money where his mouth is. Finding White Hats and Patriots, [Col’s Eyes shift left] part of me says look, God Bless Himm, but I don’t believe the fate of the free world, and the information collected by Mike Lindell, like it is all depending on this man. When we had someone as savvy as President Trump, the Commander in Chief, the most powerful man world and just to review his greatness, I have been catching up on The Art of The Deal, [ Col smiles & nods] And seeing how the man’s mind works. I just find it unfathomable that the military during his watch, whether it is 2018 or 2020, [Col’s Eyes shift left] didn’t have the real time ability, to monitor what was going on. [Col Mills INTERUPTS…]
@47:25 – Col Mills OK so we are now to a very specific question. So here is my VIEW POINT ON IT. <=== [a bit if a strawman?]
One, I love Mike Lindell and I am a big supporter of Mike Lindell. Two, was there foreign interference? I THINK ABSOLUTELY.
In the first two films that Mike presented, which were really the work of Dennis Montgomery and Mary Fanning [Hammer & Scorecard] Umm, Umm, Let me just say, umm… I, I, I, …analyzed this and there were 6 possible outcomes, bottom line that quality and that visibility is essentially nation state level.
AND Unless you are standing at the watch floor of Fort Mead or the FBI has some capability, or DHS, you aren’t going to see that BUT they didn’t see that I hold the Federal Government to the SAME STANDARDS. The reality is there is only a few federal laws on the conduct of elections so neither Law Enforcement nor the Intelligence Community HAD THE LEGAL AUTHORITY CHARTER STARTING POINT TO LOOK THE RIGHT DIRECTION FOR THE RIGHT EVIDENCE and I know Chris Krebs [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Krebs], I know what went on. They did not have the people, program, resources, legal authority, or even KNOW HOW of how elections are conducted. To tune our collection capabilities to look for the right things.
So I question what Dennis Montgomery and Mary Fanning presented but at the same time I hold the Federal Government to the SAME STANDARDS and they are not being truthful because they do not have the legal charter to begin with on the conduct of elections, they do not have experience on the conduct of elections. So when Chris Krebs says or when Paul Nakasone [https://www.armed-services.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/Nakasone_03-25-21.pdf] says most secure election ever, THEY HAVE NO IDEA.
I think it would be far more truthful for them to say we aren’t trained to do this, we don’t know what to look for, we do not have the people, programs or resources.
@50:00 Dave:
Perhaps the question I am asking, perhaps there is only a small number of people who know the answer. I gather that Chris Krebs didn’t know what he is talking about as soon as he opened his mouth based on just common sense of what was going on in real time…. [lists examples of fraud] Trump was tweeting in advance about how fraud was going to be carried out. [@ 50:45 Col Mills eyes to left, then looks down smiles and tries to hide a laugh] It was almost as if he had a crystalball. And umm [Col Interupts]
@50:52: Col Mills I’ll tell yeah, I was asked to write almost a hundred memos to analyze from spring of 2020 to December 2020 umm ahh on essentially umm what election integrity was, what that meant, I’ll claim I coined the term election integrity. And the RNC seemed to magically discover the term on Jan 7th. But I wrote many memos on that. On July there was a tweet from the president that essentially came from one of the things that I wrote. [cuts eyes to the right twice] So there was a small group of us that saw it coming. And WE KNEW THE FIX WAS IN.
And we were willing to do some analysis. And not just operate from an accepted narrative.
@52:00 – Dave OK, so I am glad to hear that. And you mentioned that Krebs & Co. either weren’t looking at the problem, or had the resources to evaluate it. But there have been discussions at least in some circles about the Exec Order that was signed in 2018 that dealt with foreign interference. [Col smiles and nods head emphatically] Any thoughts as to why it would have been signed. [Col. bursts out laughing] And I want to say that it was re-authorized last September which would have covered one calendar year [interrupt yeh, and still laughing smiling] and the timing of that is there any hope that perhaps although the swamp is deep, there seems to be a lot of people surrounding the President that don’t seem to be looking out for him or We the People. What do you think prompted that and instead of telling me about whether something has happened as a result of it cause I don’t think you will be able to give me an answer to that. What COULD HAVE BEEN DONE BASED ON THAT EXECUTIVE ORDER BEING SIGNED.
@53:14 — Col Mills yeah, very simple, most of this fell upon the shoulders of the Attorney General. And the swampiest part of this swamp is I would say, in some ways I’d say a tie between the Dept of State but it is really the Department of Justice. In some ways Barr did more than any attorney general ever attempted to break up the swamp but he finally caved, folded and came out throwing the president under the bus. Most of this would fall under the attorney general to look into specific things.
One of the basic elements the Attorney General has never enforced, is three elements in 18 US code. There is no debate about it you have to be a US citizen to vote yet counties and states have worked with the DOJ willfully to register voters who are unlawful. … Barr FAILED to ENFORCE. In Virginia, 8 to 12 % are unlawful. We got that via jury duty rejection which comes straight from the voter roles.
4.
@ 55:15 Dave: OK now speaking of Attorney Generals, we have the beginning of the Trump admin, you’re still keeping an eye on the cyber components and the cyber threats to our nation. I am getting a lot of questions about the timing or purpose of Jeff Sessions. The very short tenure. The reason why it comes up is because of the timing of when John Durham came on board. Heres another mystery figure that none of us see him, none of us hear from him. I think we started to hear from him oddly enough, from Bill Barr. There are some things that are curious. Apple informed Adam Shiff and Eric Swalwell who were two high ranking members of the intel committee. Oh BTW we have been disclosing documents and stuff you have been in possession of over the past four years. I think that came out this past May. As a prosecutor who has convined Grand Juries, you have to have the subpoena power to do that. And it has to originate from some where. The fact that Apple was complying with some sort of subpoena for four years was very curious because that would have pre-dated Bill Barr. Oddly enough it seems to start with the start of the Trump admin. And you have this very short lived appointment of Jeff Sessions. You have had some interfacing with John Durham thru your work. Can you connect some of the dots for us on what do you know about John Durham. What have you don to help assist this. And is there anything I have said that you can flesh out and separate fact from fiction.
@ 57:35 — Col. Mills Quick chronology from the summer of 2016. I was in the halls of the Pentagon in the summer of 16 just a few days before the Republican Convention to nominate Trump. And someone who had been a Bush appointee, I ran into him and said, you’re going to support Trump Right? And I will never forget this, this is literally verbatim what he said:
No, We see more OPPORTUNITIES with HER!
I got in his face and said who is WE? And what opportunities do you see? From that point on I was a thousand percent Trump. And that is when I realized there is a Swamp.
So Summer of 16 is really when Crossfire Hurricane really started. And Comey and Brennan.
Now I was part of something linking back to C&CI. There was a body called the Cyber Response Group, [CRG] that I kind of departed about 2014. But the CRG kinda became important and maybe was the body… We heard about unmasking, Susan Rice, things like that…. So the CRG I helped set up way back in 2007, 2008. But the Obama Admin kinda repurposed that group. And just because of the roles and responsibilities I don’t think they wanted me in it. I kinda ceased participating. The CRG kinda became the center of gravity for certain special Cyber things OK? Which may have included the unmasking activities in 2015, 2016. So I think they were starting to really ramp up for the election, conveniently had these incredible collection capabilities, as things moved towards summer of 2016, and Trump being nominated, and when Trump was nominated in summer of 2016, I think all the capabilities started to focus on him.
All those capabilities we were talking about pivoted anda Significant Element Let’s FOCUS ON THIS TARGET.
@ 1:00:25 – DAVE Do you think that would have occurred if you had some establishment like Mitt Romney? Do you think that apparatus [INTERRUPT]
1:00:35 – Col Mills I think it would have happened and they would have beat the stuffing out of Mitt Romney, 300 dollar hair cut guys I like to call them, and he would have just lost gracefully. Because that tradition and lineage, as I have delved more into election integrity and politics, There is a money class and a donor class and a political class that is far more concerned with ‘gracefully losing’
So Yeah, they would have focused on Romney, they would have beat the stuffing out of him, he would and the RNC would have collected a lot of money and said, Well guys we gave it the old college try. We will just have to donate MORE MONEY to try it again next time.
1:00:12 – Dave So I guess my question is,… I have disabused myself in thinking there is a great difference between the Left and the Right, I have heard Eric Winestein refer to K-fabrication it is a lot like Professional wrestling….[Prof’s, recollections he is a fan. Col Mills laughs] … Do you have a sense there is a Deep State that says, you know something, A lot of this is just OPTICS, [Col smiles and nods and goes UnHuh] and sometimes the Ds are going to get their ways, and sometimes the Rs are going to get their’s but what is important is that we do not disturb the status quo on a few major things like, the Military Industrial complex, the Federal Reserve policies, make sure you do not touch that Federal Reserve, things like that. Or do you really think there is these deep divided factions between Left and Right. Because when I see George W. holding hands and sharing mementos with Michelle Obama, When I see the affection after they go thru the wars and then all of a sudden when they retire, they are all best friends. It reminds me of Professional Wrestling. Do you have that same sense?
1:03:00 – Col Mills It has evolved into that direction. That is what it has become and I mentioned that discussion that I ran into a Bush appointee and I asked him, you’re going to support Trump Right? And his response is:
No we see more opportunities with her.
In my mind that immediately flashed, Oh my gosh, there IS NO DIFFERENCE, They are the same thing. There is this little show dynamics, sometimes we win, sometimes we lose, but it is predominantly a D lead Swamp and the Republicans are, it is just like with, Newt Gingrich and his Revolution in 94, he came in and was originally told, We are the minority, don’t worry about it, don’t do anything, just spend most of your day playing golf. NO!, not going to do that so he was a disruptive event.
Trump was a disruptive event. NO! I am not going to play along with this.
So, Yes there is, Romney will SAY, Oh, No I am fighting for these values – No he isn’t. He is very happy to lose gracefully, because they are benefactors of the same process. It has evolved into that.
1:04:15 – Dave Let me drill down on one thing, I touched on but I haven’t gotten your thoughts on yet. You talked about this intoxicating machinery that started to be aimed at Pres. Trump in the summer of 2016. This guy is not good for the Swamp. Find out everything you can about him, let’s crush this guy. And then something happened. He wasn’t CRUSHED, every poll was wildly off, every single celebrity and stink News Host was eating Humble Pie. But it didn’’t take them long from saying he’s here so let’s never let this happen again. So take us thru that fall of Sept 16 and I want to get your thoughts on John Durham as well.
1:05:15 – Col Mills So I think what happened is, Trump’s their guy so focus all resources on CRUSHING HIM. But they had not perfected the art thru electronic means thru election machines, thru absentee voting means, they had not perfected the art of dominating the vote yet. That occurred in 2020. They did not realize that Trump would generate this turnout, this interest that he had. Especially in several key states.
But they wanted to CRUSH AND DESTROY HIM ANYWAY.
So in early October, I was at a dinner in London, and it just so happened, that someone who was a very senior official in the FBI essentially the head of Cyber at the FBI for a number of years. Who retired and went to work for a major up and coming cyber firm that I am not going to mention right now. But I think you can start putting the pieces together and figure out who I am talking about and which Cyber Security firm. I was there on a Five Eyes information sharing meeting in London. And I had been invited to this dinner. This very senior former official, I believe it was October 6th, 2016. There were about 100 of us at this dinner, most everybody is an elite, a Globalist. At these dinners we are asked to stand up and say something about ourselves and something we are passionate about. And he stood up and I have know this guy for a number of years, Sat at the White House with him, been at many meeting with him, and he had been very helpful to me, in some other endeavors which caused a great deal of allegiance to him.
When the microphone came to him, he stood up and says, TRUMP IS A RUSSIAN ASSET AND WE’RE GOING TO PROVE IT! He was adamant, passionate, he had a meltdown. I had never seen him do this.
Most of the people in the room are going ?? PFFFFttt [WTF??] What are you talking about, Hillary’s going to win. And he is like WE ARE GOING TO PROVE IT!
As more information came out, I believe he was in London at the behest of James Comey, and to coordinate with Gina Haspel on collection against Trump….. With the timeline of the events that I have seen…. It was documented by Rick Grennell and Ratcliffe, information declassified last fall, very important, that Comey gave the green light to spin Crossfire Hurricane up to highest levels. Essentially in the last few days of Sept, early Oct…. And I am pretty sure that personality was there.
I have 27 pages in front of John Durham. [Eyes cut to left twice, & stutters] I hope something happens.
We have to be a Constitutional based society.
5.
1:21:47 – Col Mills Well I think it was all of the above. [eyes to left] But I will mention there was a gentleman [eyes left] who was deputy assistant sec for defense for cyber, I was in another office but I worked closely with. He moved up to be with Ash Carter, as essentially Chief of Staff and a person called Eric Rosenbock. I think he is one of the interesting personalities in this….. I remember seeing him the day, after the election and he was a zombie…. And I talked to him… He was in shock…. It was rumored that very likely… Alexander was director of NSA and Cyber command and they were going to separate and word was Rosenbock under Hillary would be director of NSA. And he would be in a strategic position to go back and review some of the collections going on during 2016. Your listeners can interpret what that means. [remove embarrassing D communications and tweek other communications so they could be used to convict enemies would be my guess. – ‘beating Donald Trump is not enough. He has to be crushed to the earth, and squashed like a bug. We have to burn down his village, pillage his valley, shame his horde and send his army into hiding so that he and his ugly, hate-spewing kind never rise again.’ READ ==> https://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/donald-trump-lose-badly-abolish-hate-brewing-u-s-article-1.2724357 ]
I think he was an important player, he is at the Balfour center @ Harvard right now.
There were a lot of personalities, I mentioned Susan Rice and the unmasking that the CRG may have had a role in.
1:24:00 – Dave So you have all this stuff going on. And then you have the inauguration. Trump gets by despite the efforts of the enemy to saboyage [Col nods] And then you have what looks like major leaking going on. [Col oh yeah, oh yeah]
1:24:20 – Col Mills You had the Vindmans… who were unbelievable, unprofessional, unethical. You had the Deep Staters running around. Remember the Executive Office of the President is roughly about 7,000 folks. Many of them are careerists and military that have been detailed over from their departments and agencies. And Again DC [Dave- Interrupts]
1:24:55 – Dave So do you think Trump responded day one to deal with the leaks.
1:25:00 – Col Mills I think there are too many Never Trumpers on his administration. There were too many careerists that were actively working and facilitating, — again the person who invited me was a carreerist who called me up and said John we need you on this group. And he was just GIDDY WITH EXCITEMENT cause we’re gonna PROVE… and he is a careerist. He should not have a position. So from Day one it was challenging. [I think they used ‘Trump is a Russia asset’ to POISON anyone who would other wise be neutral.–GC] You mentioned Jeff Sessions. I really liked Jeff Sessions. I think Jeff Sessions Faux Pax was he acted as if there was normalcy going on. [He still believed we had rule of law – GC] And he thought he was doing the right thing by… Because that is what we do as professionals, we appoint Special Counsels [Remember these were his colleagues and friends. I do not think he was aware of how bad the rot and EVIL was and actually though he was going to clear Trump’s name. – GC] Instead of saying NO! I want more evidence and detail. [Which he actually could not do because of his conflict of interest -GC] Because it was a fraud, a lie, 18 US Code a false statement by a Federal Official…. Comey and Brennan should be indicted for false statements at a minimum. I think Jeff Sessions was lied to. But he thought he was doing the right thing.
1:26:30 – Dave – Right thing you mean by recusing himself
Col Mills, by recusing himself and by allowing the appointment of a special prosecutor. Up until that time there was a BC -AD in Washington. 2016, BC with Trump it was after that.
1:26:55 – Dave We have been going a long time, I am learning a lot and I am loving it I want to touch on two people though. You have General Mike Flynn, [ eyes to left] there was a thought for a role in the Trump admin. That did not come to fruition. Any observations 2016 on. Either the threat that Flynn presented to the Deep State. [chewing lips.] Because there was obviously there was a bogus entrapment case if you want to call it that that was set-up to incriminate him over nothing since we have just established that the Russia Hoax was a BIG LIE. [Smile.]
So let’s start there, what do you make of Mike Flynn during this time frame.
Col Mills: He is another disruptive event. He is a disruptive event to the Army General and to the military general officers, flag officer culture because he is an American patriot. And he wants to do the right thing. As we have discovered under the current Chairman Milley, What in the bloody world has happened top our general officers and admirals gofos serving Caesar and not the Constitution. Trump was disruptive, Flynn was disruptive, he was a threat. He was a threat to small ‘C’ conservative military culture, he was a threat to the swamp. They contrived, took him out and this contrived PENCE firing, I thought, did Pence KNOW it was all fake? I don’t know, but in the end Pence Choked on Jan 6, 2021. When I believe he had a lawful…. Where he should have AT LEAST asked clarifying questions of the State electors. He chose not to, he choked and the rest is history. So this contrived firing, Flynn was disruptive and a threat.

JOHN DURHAM I think this is critical so a bit of background info.
July 17 2021: X-22 Report Why They Can’t Find Special Counsel John Durham https://x22report.com/why-they-cant-find-special-counsel-john-durham/ This goes into how the media got Bill Clinton off the hook. “…prosecutor Ken Starr made one huge mistake right at the start after he was appointed by a panel of judges to handle a very politically sensitive investigation involving a series of shady-looking bank loans related to a failed land deal called “Whitewater”…. The mistake Starr made was that he opted to be as completely transparent as he could during the course of his investigation, to demonstrate he was not some secret inquisitor. And Democrats and their news media allies took full and complete advantage of Starr’s naïve transparency…. Whereas before such vicious scorched-earth tactics had been reserved for the multiple women who had dared to come forward and publicly talk about their liaisons with Clinton – or about his attempts to sexually force himself upon them – now they would utilize upon a Special Counsel and his staff….”

Back to the transcript:
Dave: We are going to go rapid fire, I still have not heard about JOHN DURHAM [Both smiling] What do you know about John Durham. Give me your best thoughts on how he fits into this and is there any hope. [big smile] I am of the mind, and I will give you my thought on this. When I was a prosecutor, I went after indictments I never presented a media report. [nods] I never issued a report to the media… I never did that once [Eyes shift left.]…. Why would I tell what I have on the bad guys so they can now prepare. [continues to smile] I find that very bizarre. I know that Mueller had this report. Maybe that is part of the cultural zeitgeist we are all expecting to be debriefed. [eyes shift left twice.] Mueller, what he was doing was political theatre. If Durham is real [opens mouth to speak] and there is actual meat on the bones, [smiles] tactically that would be a very STUPID thing to do.
But is John Durham Real?
What bearing does your work have if anything on what John Durham is doing? [big smile]
And from a timeline stand point do you have a firm sense of when he entered the picture?
Col Mills: As you know he is a prosecutor and as you know all these things are held close to the vest as law enforcement sensitive and as legal preceedings. So let me go, a lot of this is not publicaly known, it is not even known to involve-es such as me. I submited my 27 pages. It took me almost two years to absolutely insure that they had it, they received it, they acknowledged it and hopefully something was going to be done with it.
Dave: When did you submit your 27 pages.
Col Mills: Well I submitted it several times. But I didn’t have confirmation, it was early 2020. I was submitting pieces of it to DOJ and Barr since early 2018.
Dave: Ok so your part of that the 27 pages, does that more or less cover what you shared with our audience about the lack of good faith with Comey already having a pre-determined decision and having something he was going to sign off on. Was that what you were submitting to John Durham? Your involvement on basically giving a rubber stamp for the Russia hoax.
@1:31:50 Col Mills: Yeah it was that but it was even beyond that. I mean this one important detail. I happened to be at a meeting in DC in early 2018. And the person I was meeting came in and said you know the whose in the next room? No no whose in the next room? They said a guy named Michael Hayden. General Micheal Hayden. He is on his twice a week coordinating call – THIS IS EARLY 2018, early 2018 — he is on his twice a week coordinating call with Brennan who is OUT OF OFFICE, COMEY who is in OFFICE [Trump fired Comey on May 9, 2017], And I believe it was Mueller who was the forth personality. WHAT in the BLOODY WORLD are these four people, some who were actually in office… Why are they coordinating talking points. And they are FROM ONE SIDE OF THE AISLE and FROM THE OTHER SIDE OF THE AISLE and like you said they are together. [WIKI–”… investigation was conducted by special prosecutor Robert Mueller from May 2017 to March 2019.” Col Mills may have his dates mixed and this was in early 2017 before the Special Council when Comey was still in office.]
Dave: If memory serves, Brennan had his privileges (clearance?] revoked. [Col. nods] That is why they started taking jobs with CNN and so it is odd that some of those folks like Comey was still privy to information. [NO NOT FORGET NEED TO KNOW!!!] It sounds like he was sharing information with folks that he shouldn’t be. Col Mills says ABSOLUTELY!!!
So what I am going to do now is a rapid fire line of questions if you can answer these with a very short answer….
So if you had to ID a person [½ smile] that presents the greatest threat domestically to the Republic. Not talking of foreign actors. Who comes to mind. [Col big smile]
1:33:54 Col Mills: WOW, Comey, Brennan, Hayden, and Hayden I had so much respect for, I really thought he was incredible, I think the 3 of them are bad actors. I think the entire current admin. is uninterested in a constitutional concept called America.
Dave: So not one person but a Hydra with many heads.
…….
I think they are missing the fact the ‘hydra’ is just the go-fors.

This gets into China.
BACKGROUND: Jack Posobiec, Joe Hoft and Steve Bannon has been warning that China is not in good shape. China Is In A Financial Crisis (6 minutes) https://rumble.com/vnbutg-china-is-in-a-financial-crisis.html
……
Back to the transcript.
Dave: Same question but foreign stage. You mentioned China
Col Mills: That’s China absolutely. With the debacle in Kabul by this administration demonstrating an absolute lack of resolve or interest in asserting American values much less the coalition of liberal democrat republics in their opposition to China, We/they have created an almost unstopable trajectory towards world war. China looks at the fecklessness of this administration as a Green Light. Now they are under great duress at home. Shi is under great domestic duress. We don’t realize it. [Counting on his fingers]
They input roughly 50% of their food.
Roughly 50% of their energy
The have to conduct all their transactions in the almighty dollar. [Not true. Australia has a deal to deal in yen.]
We can easily constrict them and disable them by squeezing any of them or all three of those.
Afghanistan gave them the land bridge to their oil access in Iran.
A lot of their food comes from America and if the current resident of the white house was serious about asserting American and Western interests he would use that as leverage. 3.Xi is on a rampage destroying his own companies and IPOs because of the fear he has of his own big Tech. So he is kinda taking care of that for us. It is bizzare he is destroying his own economy because he feels they are a threat. But it is China China China.
Dave: So there is basically a Chinese Deep State that he is dealing with even though we don’t see them as the good guys in what ever iteration. [smiles & nods]
The food is interesting because I have seen a bit of a propaganda campaign with the Bill Gates and the GMOs [eyes shift left twice] of the world who are trying to persuade us to eat really really crappy food.[eyes shift left] There is this really big kick to get us away from beef and cattle and stuff that provides great nutrition [eyes shift left, smiles] and I bring that up because I know that China is one of the primary consumers of meat, beef [nods] and we have got what they don’t have which is these large swaths of grazing lands. And it just makes you wonder if that propaganda campaign to get people on the Burger King Impossible burger or these documentaries like plant nation. [eyes shift left] If that’s part of the propaganda wing. And I say that because we already see that when it comes to distribution, Chinese control of our theaters, Chinese control over what movies America can show in their respective land. There are quotas on the number of films. It is kind of interesting that you brought up those three pillars. I do not think people realize how important the food component is. That is one of the major areas that we could apply tremendous pressure to reassert ourselves. [nods]
OK now I want to end on a more positive note. So let me ask you this John, You and I seem to be on the same page with what occurred November 3rd as being tantamount to a coup. What hope do you have and what gives you the resolve to fight each day. Cause I’ll tell you right now, that I talked on the phone with Lin Wood, yesterday for about 2 hours. And we are both tired. We have been fighting every day in any way we know how [nods] and it was humbling because Lin has been fighting a long time taking on all comers but it was the first time I sensed a weariness from him. Something has got to give. [murmurs assent] It’s September. If we go thru another election cycle and I am saying of 2021, there are other elections that are going to continue we to use these machines that we know are absolutely compromised. [eyes shift left] And if we keep overlaying garbage with more fraudulent garbage it creates the perception that everything is OK. We need to solve the murder mystery of November 3 last year. [nods] So if you could send us on our way, if there is a charge you can give my viewers on why we have got to keep fighting. Where do you draw your strength from [[eyes shift right, smile] and what would you like to see happen.
Co Mills: Well, we have no choice. There is no where else to go as I think Lt General Flynn has said. We have no choice we have to fight. Even as weary as we are as insurmountable as the odds may seem, we have no choice. We have to fight. And I think there is a growing movement that is unstoppable even though we are facing this iron curtain of censorship, I think there is a growing movement between Arizona, between Georgia, Pennsylvania. It is US the people. We’re the ones in control. It’s the COUNY, the county we must re-assert ourselves at the county level.
So I feel as tough as it may seem, as insurmountable as the odds may seem, we are actually building momentum in multiple areas and it is average individual citizens who are rising up. In Virginia we are pushing for a forensic audit. Senator Manachase is leading that the establishment doesn’t like that. They just want to focus on the gubernatorial election. We can walk and chew gum at the same time. We can take care of November 3rd and address an upcoming election. We can do these. So I have absolute faith and confidence because I can see a growing tide of citizens who will not relent they will be persistent and they will push themselves at the school board level at the county election board, its us and we are not going to accept the status quo.Because that’s what got us, we always assume someone else would take care of the election process. Yes someone else was taking care of the election process. That is why we are in this mess. It is time for us the citizen to get involved and I see it.
I have been fighting this since the 2019 elections in Virginia. I realized the utter massive fraud in Virginia. And I purposed myself so I have been going since then on this topic. I see positive momentum going our direction. We have to show resolve this is a battle of Wills. This is a battle of wills and we must persevere.
Dave: Well, Colonel John Mills, I have learned a ton tonight. You have helped connect some dots for me….
ColMills: Thank you so much Professor. Social media… Colonel ret john on Gettr …
Amazing group of veterans called: National Election Integrity Association Website WWW.NEIA.US We have some incredible films at that website…. I have trained and equipped six foreign national militaries, organized trained and equipped. We are available to organized trained and equip citizens at the county level to retake their election system, their election process and all other functions such as the county school board. We give a very specific actionable model and steps to train and equip the patriot at the county level. A number of groups are signing up across the nation and we are walking them through and we are seeing great results.
You will recall my prior message, which Deplorable Patriot has faithfully echoed for your benefit, during this time that I have maintained a certain radio silence.
Wolf Moon July 6, 2021 17:07 Thanking everybody for your patience. Whether happenstance, coincidence, or enemy action, I’m dealing with some technical issues. In addition to those, and the obvious spiritual attacks, I am dealing with the obvious site stuff in what are best maintained as unobvious ways.
I suspect we struck a nerve.
A combined technical / spiritual / strategic response by all of us will prevent this attack from succeeding. Hold the line – bite the bullet – gird the loins – bite the lip – pray for guidance, discernment, and strength – whatever YOU believe keeps the ship aright for the moment. Everything else is lower priority.
Deplorable Patriot suggests the following. I am not about to argue.
In that spirit, the Prayer to St. Michael the Archangel from Tuesday’s threads, and the Breastplate of St. Patrick, not to mention the Litany of Humility are favorites recommended by exorcists in spiritual warfare.
I am now going to explain a bit more about what is going on. That will be the THIRD message. But I will post the above immediately and UPDATE during the next few hours, so that those who are locked out will understand and follow the procedure starting with COMMENTING ON THE U TREE.
The Third Message:
Now, I’m going to explain SOME of what is going on.
I start off by explaining the somewhat unusual security requirements of this site.
Our PURPOSE – stated fairly clearly from the beginning – is to provide a way for the GRASSROOTS – YOU – to post your thinking – CLEARLY – thanks to FREE SPEECH – where it can be seen by all. We don’t REALLY have secrets here – other than what is needed to preserve our freedom of speech. Thus, I don’t spend a lot of time doing that crap.
Obviously, we become a THORN in people’s sides, but I hope that this THORN is attached to one immortal CROWN, from which we HUMBLY DEFEND TRUTH.
See? It’s all a matter of perspective.
Anyway, during the recent friction (I’ll be kind) between various posters, I was made aware of certain (I’ll be kind again) “mischaracterizations” of posts and comments on this site.
In the course of this – and I do thank all who opined both openly and privately – it became clear that these mischaracterizations are not only an unacceptable danger to this site and our free speech – but they are related – in ways which may be innocent, but are not necessarily so – to other extremely consequential mischaracterizations.
NOW – here is where it gets REALLY interesting.
At that time I was paying attention to a growing security problem in the WordPress world, which has affected many sites – the “spam registration problem”.
We love our LURKERS – including those good and honest people who make sure our GRASSROOTS VIEWS are promptly and accurately reported to other good and honest people. Some of these lurkers are likely even a bit automated – frankly, we don’t really care. We’re the news now, so to speak, and people automate that stuff. It’s a fact.
Now there may be BAD LURKERS, too, but that just comes with the territory. Right? Shouldn’t be that much of a problem. If they don’t actually interfere with us, why should I care?
Whether people are carbon-based or silicon-based lurkers, we don’t really mind them registering on the site, either, so that they can be “subscribers”. That’s fine with me.
The problem for me was mostly that the volume of lurkers got bigger and bigger and bigger. That was bad, but livable.
However, more recently, things got STRANGE.
I started seeing a real uptick in RUSSIAN subscribers. Yeah, those annoying Russians. Just like DOJ, it’s pretty hard to say WHOSE SIDE they’re really on. Right? It’s like Star Trek or Babylon 5. Klingons, Romulans, Cardassians and Bejorans – or however you spell these names. They’re all just TROUBLE.
The thing is, the NUMBERS – sheesh – they were OUT OF CONTROL. I mean, it was bad. Actually, it was worse. It was EMBARRASSING. An EMBARRASSINGLY large number of weird Russian accounts following us.
But then I got to thinking about TIMING. Why right now?
And how do I KNOW if they’re really Russians? They could be anybody. False attribution is what everybody does. And even “real” attribution can have false intent.
BUT – one thing was clear. It LOOKED LIKE Russians.
So whoever was doing it, Russian or not, WANTED it to look like a whole bunch of Russians were following this site.
You startin’ to see what I’m sayin’?
And this is all on July 4th. I was seriously getting the impression that DODGE and FIB had been hoping for more “actionable riling up of us Deplorables” on July 4, and they weren’t getting it. Where “action” could be anything – provocation, intimidation, influence, control, STFU – whatever.
Now there was some other information I got that was really quite useful here, which nature I don’t want to get into, but I was starting to see some connections – NO MATTER WHAT. Whether it was a PLOT, or people just tipping HANDS, or just people displaying signs of INFLUENCE – something stunk about ALL this stuff happening at the same time.
SO – on the TECHNICAL FRONT – I decided to deploy one of the many wonderful solutions which are now available for this problem of phony and bot registrations.
On the SPIRITUAL FRONT – I decided to ASK FOR HELP – from all of YOU – and you all really came through. I want to particularly thank Sadie, who saw that the spiritual attack was such a large component of this.
And on the SITE POLICY FRONT – I decided that misrepresentations of posts or comments are not tolerable, and must be dealt with by a policy OTHER than “letting things just work out” – my primary weapon. We simply can’t put up with it.
Beyond this, I went through a little exercise of “gathering bona fides” – which was enough for me to feel comfortable with where things are now. I will NOT let this site or the people here be BETRAYED. This is not to say that I don’t have a certain amount of sympathy for MAGA Mom. I do.
Like I always tell people, my mother lived through Hitler. These times are very similar. We all have to make difficult decisions, that may put us on opposite sides.
ANYWAY, I figured that the combination of ENDING THIS CRAP and DISCLOSURE (which is what I’m doing now) would fix things – at least temporarily – for our little site.
Now here is where it gets even more interesting. And one might say that this is useful information from the “grassroots” for our special HONEST lurkers.
I knew there was something wrong with the “NSA” spying on Tucker Carlson. NSA spying is traditionally SO deep and so quiet that nobody ever knows anything about it. That’s the way they operate. Big, deep, huge, silent, and NEVER give even a HINT of the magnitude, or the IDEA that it might be abused. …
That little CHINA-LOVIN’ BOLSHEVIK, Andrew Weissmann? Tryin’ to stick Tucker Carlson with more “Russia, Russia, Russia” insinuations? At the DOJ/FBI abuse of NSA data level? While pretending to be patriotic?
Hmmmmm. Wonder what Mark Steyn might have to say about that.
Why, this whole thing about “Russia” reminded me of something.
Such bullshit. Framing, set-up, evil bullshit.
So I was thinking “Yeah, gotta get this shit taken care of.” We needed to deal with this crap a.s.a.p.
They could be FRAMING us. Right? They being – you know – the DNC-DOJ-FBI-CCP-HRC-CIA-“USSR” complex.
So while I was dealing with the technical solution, I discovered something really interesting. I discovered that we had actually TRIGGERED some of these horrible “contractors” that the DNC farms out to carry out their treachery. Not only did we trigger them – we triggered them into digging deeply into the bowels of the site.
Somebody put Mountain Dew in the Wolf’s water bowl, and suddenly he thinks he’s wild and free. Indeed, while being WALKED BY HIS DOGHANDED OFF TO HIS WIFELEASHED TO HIS {{{“SMART”PHONE}}}X///RUNNING WITH SCISSORS IN HIS MIND///X But not yet having waved to the patriots who overfly his house routinely to see the giant TRUMP SIGN …
I will admit that I loaded this thing up with bait – not the least of which was an asteroid explosion as the featured image. You know – those “violent” QAnons. I then sweetened with “Mike Flynn is gonna whip yo ass”, which is guaranteed to set DOJ-FBI “contractor” hair on fire.
A critical part of this bait was our discovery that one of the “QAnon experts” used by this legion of fancy-shoe coastal elite globalist scum had revealed prior knowledge of the Buffalo Jump.
Add that all up together, and YEAH – better get that security stuff in pronto.
Now here is where it gets even MORE interesting.
When I slapped in this solution, suddenly a gazillion attacks ran into a brick wall. The origins of the attacks were VERY enlightening. And the people who were getting into the deepest “stuff” were coming out of some VERY interesting places.
Wow! Looks like the CCP may have been using the Italian defense contractor Leonardo SpA to steal US aerospace technology for years!
And, would you look at that – Leonardo SpA also happens to be in business with the same UBS Securities that infused $400 million into Staple Street Capital (owner of Dominion Voting Systems) just three weeks before the 2020 presidential election!
Makes you wonder – why is there an Italian affidavit alleging that Leonardo SpA’s Head of IT Arturo D’Elia admitted to taking part in a cyber hack of the 2020 election
Yeah. Hilariously, at the very moment I dropped the hammer on all the bullshit, we received and stopped five strikes into the Sacred Room of the Holy Grail, with one attack being from some nameless host in the middle of Chinese Flyover, and another one being out of Leonardo SpA in the middle of Italy.
Funny, that.
So, you see, all of this stuff is tying together, and it is VERY big-league.
I will just finish with this thought.
Fake Elections are a HUGE deal.
At this point, I think the people who have “depended on them”, to put it nicely, will do almost anything to protect the scammy black box from inspection.
The trouble is, for me, Fake Elections are a no-go. They’re completely unacceptable.
I knew there was something wrong with the “NSA” spying on Tucker Carlson. NSA spying is traditionally SO deep and so quiet that nobody ever knows anything about it. That’s the way they operate. Big, deep, huge, silent, and NEVER give even a HINT of the magnitude, or the IDEA that it might be abused.
Blowing that on a journalist? Yeah, right.
Even a guy like Tucker.
NSA spying is designed to put all the data in a black hole, out of which any of it ONLY emerges if truly needed. It’s an interesting way to deal with the appearance and disappearance of evidence over time.
IF the cops are honest, and IF they are never conquered, THEN they can hold all our secrets in a black box and ONLY retrieve them if authorized. That’s the basic principle.
We can argue about that all we want, but not today. Just accept it as a REALITY. OK? It’s real. THAT is how the IC deals with the “moving real-time problem”. SAVE it all – sort it out later – LOOK AT IT in an outward-facing way ONLY if authorized.
That’s just the WAY IT IS.
So when we get this story – this NARRATIVE – about the NSA “suddenly” spying on Tucker Carlson – and then we get a story about them releasing information – NAH. It violates two things that I KNOW about an agency which has kept track of me my entire life – FOR GOOD REASONS.
ONE.
The NSA spies on ALL OF US – ALWAYS – ALL THE TIME – EVERYTHING. It’s all saved. There is no NEED to order some special spying on Tucker Carlson. That’s not how it works.
They have all my data. They have all Tucker’s data. It’s a done deal.
The narrative that they “started” spying on him, or even that they spied on him in some special way, is all wrong. It’s bullshit. Whoever came to him was either in on the op to influence Tucker, OR they are a pawn or cut-out in the operation – possibly a true and excellent friend of Tucker – but ANY implication that special spying was done on him is bullshit.
Now the NSA can’t go and deny this, because the TRUTH is untouchable.
Somebody on the other side knows that. An ASSHOLE named Andrew Weissmann.
But we’ll get to him in a minute.
TWO.
NSA does not go around “leaking” stuff, because to do so endangers their mission, their collection, and everything they live for. I’m not saying they don’t care – I’m saying that leaking – the creation of the slightest crack in their “defensive truth” – is not part of the “caring”.
We barely got any information about their HEAD GUY – Admiral Mike Rogers – going to a FISA JUDGE and saying that DOJ and FBI were abusing their data in shocking ways.
THAT is the kind of “leak” that sometimes emerges from NSA. As in, it’s about the NSA.
You know. Like SNOWDEN – a CIA operation.
NSA? They don’t go leaking about journalists. They don’t even leak about ME to counter my ratting out what I know but cannot prove about NSA. They don’t even leak about former NSA whistleblowers.
I’ve been a pain in NSA’s ass my whole life. I’m not going to divulge what they may have done to influence me, but one thing I can tell you is that they did not leak JACK. ZERO. NADA.
SILENCE IS THEIR PRIMARY WEAPON.
SO.
I believe that Tucker is the victim of a multi-pronged discreditation operation as part of a SET-UP to a media-government hit job. I think that Tucker did the EXACT right thing going public with us. I think that NSA data about him WAS and IS going to be used in a hit job on him. But this is NOT an NSA “leak”. Its ABUSE of NSA data.
It’s somebody ELSE doing the leaking.
I think that Tucker was UNMASKED exactly like Trump was – by rogue elements in DOJ, FBI, and/or the Biden administration. I think somebody OTHER that NSA illicitly unmasked and grabbed his *NSA* data, and BLAMECASTED to NSA. Knowing full well – I am sure – that NSA would be stuck holding the bag, with a stupid response full of careful denials that look guilty as hell, and even more, that NSA will be too professional to “respond in kind”.
Now at first, I was just “pretty sure” of the above. I didn’t have what I though was “proof”.
NOT UNTIL TODAY.
Just watch this video, and who is in it.
ANDREW WEISSMANN. The sack of shit behind the MUELLER HOAX.
There are very few people who CAN and WILL call out a dirty prosecutor like Andrew Weissmann for being the slimeball that he is, but The Last Refuge is one of them, and that is why that blog has been relentlessly marginalized by media assets of DOJ and FBI. If there is one thing I learned from Sundance, it is the centrality of Andrew Weissmann to the corruption in Washington – and in particular the DOJ and FBI.
Weissmann is HOLDER-LEVEL.
As soon as I saw WEISSMANN in this thing, I knew what this was – the SAME as when DOJ and FBI went after Trump.
This is MORE DOJ / FBI hoaxing and cover-up.
This is a PHONY INTEL WRAP-UP SMEAR – just like what they did to Trump. And they’re doubling the hit job by using NSA for cover.
Andrew Weissmann should be in PRISON – not out on the street talking to fake conservative Nicollle Walllace. Indeed, he WOULD be in prison, if there was real justice in Washington.
But there is not.
I’m sorry, to all you hopeful people, but I’m not waiting for Durham to do anything here.
But now we know.
Weissmann is back, and like DEMON, he will be causing trouble. THIS is just the beginning.
Unless, of course, somebody decides to actually do their job in Washington.
W
ANDREW WEISSMANN LOVES A FACADE – IT’S HOW TO SPOT HIM AT WORK
Enjoy another one of my “musicals”. I’ll get to it in a moment. But first, the background.
I actually like the idea of “Juneteenth” as a holiday, despite its unfortunate association in some parts of the country with black violence (Am I allowed to say that? It’s the truth.)
The end of slavery in America WAS a good thing. For EVERYBODY.
Man, did we learn THAT ONE in 2020. And the Bidenazis and Bidenistas had to use RACE to hide it.
And our own freaking FBI helped in the election theft. Utterly horrifying. I had no idea how right I was when I used to call them “KGB-FBI”.
NOW does the FBI giving Dylann Roof his gun make sense?
I’m kinda surprised that Juneteenth hasn’t been more celebrated, although – yeah – patching up the civil war probably involved LOTS of bad compromises, beyond the Missouri one that helped start bad things. Compromises just waiting to be undone along with “statues of remembrance” being torn down on both sides by communists. Mostly WHITE communists, ironically. That’s where the manipulable “guilt trip violence” comes in.
Just BECAUSE Juneteenth was often an opportunity for hooliganism, doesn’t mean that it has to stay that way. As more and more black people are stolen from the Democrat WHOOPS I MEAN COMMUNIST plantation, Democrat hooliganism will become more and more of a liability for them. At some point, they’ll pretend like it never happened. But until then, DUCK.
ANYWAY, I saw something that triggered a thought. I want to thank bflyjesusgrl for this repost on GAB.
Apart from misspelling ROSENBERG, I have to love that tweet. Even more, I have to love that it was captured as an image, so it will be here with us long after Twitter hides it by suspending the author. That is how Choomer Rasputin stacks the content on Twitter to the LEFT, as America moves massively TO THE RIGHT. He censors PEOPLE and thereby their ACCOUNTS to hide the censoring of the CONTENT THEREIN.
ANYWAY, I’m a bit of a connoisseur of Rosenberg memes. I’ve collected a few.
Here is a GREAT tweet by Dinesh D’Souza, comparing the Rosenbergs to the Clintons.
That picture of the Rosenbergs is from dear Wikipedia.
Another view.
Bolsheviks. SPIT.
Here was a great take on it, that somebody did.
Of course, there’s nothing earthly that can’t be improved.
Like I said, I’m a connoisseur. I even collect the bit players you never heard of, like George Koval. I did a deep dive on him and Jen Rubin back almost a year before Wray’s attack on Trump on Capitol Hill.
The very fact that fake conservative Jennifer Rubin published the below article (paywalled)…. “The descent of the GOP into authoritarian know-nothingism“ https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2020/02/17/descent-gop-into-authoritarian-know-nothingism/ (WAIT BEFORE READING THIS – we’ll do it together later in the post.) … on February 17 tells me who is living rent-free in her mind. February the Qth was no accident. And …
Yup. The Bolsheviks in Washington HAD to destroy Trumpism. Too bad that didn’t work.
I believe that the reason our treasony traitors pulled off the horrifying January 6 false flag…..
…..which we have indeed covered, is that they figured the only way out of blame for a lot of nasty stuff, was to not just get rid of Trump – they had to get rid of true American patriotism itself.
One thing that the traitors did, which was actually very, very smart, was to INFLAME the buffalo for five years. They wanted us AGITATED so that we would go right over that cliff on January 6.
Funny how badly that didn’t work. They ALMOST got their “Reichstag”, but not quite.
Too bad THEY were the only ones yelling “Burn This Shit Down”.
Anyway, back to the Rosenbergs. If you simply do a search on Julius and Ethel Rosenberg, you will be reminded that they became instant heroes to the treasonous left, and remain so to this day.
I used to think radical scoundrel Eric Holder was the most criminal Attorney General this nation ever had, but now I believe that honor goes to the man who single-handedly erased Donald Trump’s second term – William Barr.
ALLOW ME TO EXPLAIN.
Once you see it, you can’t unsee it. And I want you all to not only see it, but be ANGRY AS HELL about what happened.
There came a point where the other side realized that they were not going to get rid of Trump by simple staged shenanigans like Charlottesville, which happened on August 12, 2017. Trump was IMMUNE to the Fake News media. His BASE was relentless in supporting him past phony “crises” designed to weaken him. 48 Hour Rule? We were giving him 90 days to prove himself the man of courage and honor that he was. Instead, each crisis only made Trump stronger.
Then, the treasonous, murderous FIB went further. They MURDERED 58 younger “Trump base” people at a concert in Las Vegas. Surely THAT would make Trump quit. Would Trump actually sacrifice his own supporters to the meat-grinder of the Deep State and their allies?
Trump beat even that. Not only was he not going to quit – not only did Trump’s base say “SHOOT *ME*, YOU BASTARDS” – Trump began the utter destruction of the image of the treasonous FBI, whose reputation among conservatives sank down to somewhere between pond scum and the East German Stasi.
Well, the Stalinists simply moved to next steps. “What if we kill 17 beautiful high school kids on Valentine’s Day? February 18, 2018. Surely Trump will give up!”
Yeah. Go to hell, Eric Holder. Not only did we not let you “brainwash us against guns” – we closed down your evil “Promise Programs” designed to subvert due process and CREATE propaganda events.
I think this is around the point where the powers who would KILL to evict Trump, decided that Trump needed to fed into an “exit program” that would eliminate him at the NEXT election – November 3, 2020. They lengthened their plotline to make sure it would WORK.
And how did they do that?
By “saving” Trump from their 2016 trap, while COVERING IT UP, but PREPARING for their 2020 trap.
It was SUCH a beautiful idea. SUCH a beautiful idea. Few plots in human history were ever as ingenious as the Barr plot. “RESCUE” Trump to give Barr credibility. Then use that credibility to IGNORE and then DENY the 2020 stolen election plot.
Barr is not STUPID. He knew exactly what he was doing.
And it is my PRIVILEGE as a simple honest human being to unmask him.
Give them nothing but one more day to rue, and the wailing and gnashing of teeth.
Remain CIVIL and possibly even GENTEEL.
Today, in our VERY SPECIAL Three Babe Moon issue, dedicated to Tim Matheson who is not Chevy Chase, we have THREE SHORT LESSONS in politically incorrect WOLFTHINK.
It’s almost comical how utterly qualified Amy Coney Barrett is for SCOTUS.
When I read her short argument invoking – of all people – Ruth Bader Ginsburg – to not just answer the question of why she won’t promise to recuse herself on anything, but to also explain that (yes, I may be extrapolating just a bit)…..
any promise of recusal would deprive the OTHER justices of THEIR say in the matter
and thus, basically, it’s an unconstitutional request
the question should never have been asked
the question should never be answered in the affirmative
…..at which point I then realized…..
pressured recusals are all a bunch of Alinsky BS and Goebbels misdirection by accusation
we’re all [useful] idiots for having ever considered the question
the left’s failure to EVER recuse is THEIR ISSUE, not ours
there need to be CONSEQUENCES for the left’s failure to properly recuse
if such consequences don’t exist or are underutilized, THAT is an issue
SCOTUS is damn near like church elders, tribal elders, or a communist cell, take your pick
our Democrat communists, communist Democrats, or whatever they are, have therefore been trying to sabotage the only working communism
……OK, sorry, maybe that’s pushing it a bit, but no – AT THAT POINT – I realized that this chick is SO smart, it’s obviously a crime that she’s not ALREADY on SCOTUS.
Credit where it’s due: Amy Coney Barrett has been even more impressive under questioning than Kavanaugh (before the ambush) and Gorsuch were
…..so I can’t be as much of a fanboy as I want to, but that’s OK – she’ll be on SCOTUS for a LONG TIME, and every moment will be a VICTORY for Notorious RBG, who got replaced by a woman whose EVERY BREATH will remind the world that Trump FOOLED US ALL when he pretended to RESERVE the “Notorious Seat” for a woman, when what he was really doing was to appoint the smartest and best judge that he could – but he milked it for all it was worth in terms of the WOMEN’S VOTE.
Shrewd. Almost as smart as THAT CHICK with the blank piece of paper.
Or maybe SMARTER!
WHATEVER. We’ll just TAKE THOSE WINNAMINS!
OTOH, This One’s Smart Glasses Ain’t Workin’
This little tweet made me smile!
BWA-HA-HA-HA-HA!
Oh, that’s a good one.
YOU WILL RECALL…..
MS. S.E. Cupp is a CIA “fake conservative” used on CNN to “sweep up” the right edge of the Overton Window, which she has obviously been doing a piss-poor job of, since America decided to move the window in the other direction.
The press is not the enemy of the people. The press is the enemy of the powerful, unaccountable and corrupt. The unjust, unethical, and dishonest. The bully, the blowhard. The cover up, run around and false pretense. Let’s be clear: that’s made the press the enemy of one person.
An irredeemable Trump-hater, she was even used in a “debate” with Van Jones in the 2016 election.
AS IF!
The reality, however, is that Ms. Cupp helped reveal just how HORRIBLE and FAKE the media in the United States, and even the entire SUCKER WEST, really is.
And of course, just as she was for CANKLES in 2016…..
Oh REALLY.
SO – BREAK OUT THE POPCORN…..
…..cuz CORN POP is goin’ down, and “C CUP” with him!
The Wolf Who Cried “Boy!”
I’m sorry, but I simply cannot NOT troll the Democrats about “Muh Russia“, so here we go…..
I think people are still trying to figure out where the Democrat lies about Russia end, but leaving aside the easier treason of China, it’s safe to say that the Mueller Coupsters in DOJ wanted this lady GONE for some reason.
REALLY? WHATEVER.
If you want to hear the CRAZIEST story ever about an actual FBI informant and a Russian spy, at the periphery of The Hoax, you can read it all here:
I’m still trying to figure out what it all means. When I do, I’ll let you know.
All I DO know for sure is this.
WHATEVER is going on with Mary Butyne, the truth is BAD FOR THE COUPISTS AND THE COUP.
SO…..
We have a little over TWO WEEKS until the election.
This is the final stretch.
CALM. STEADY. TO VICTORY.

ADDENDUM: ACB Impact on Sessions Recusal
This is really part of the FIRST segment about Amy Coney Barrett, but it broke up the flow, so I am tacking it on at the end.
This gal Notorious ACB is SO SMART, that she “OH BY THE WAY” proved [to me at least] why Sessions’ recusal without consulting Trump, Mike Pence and others was a mistake.
By elucidating a fundamental principle – DUE PROCESS – Amy Coney Barrett is already fixing stuff.
And I repeat – it would be a CRIME not to vote to confirm this woman!
First of all, let us consider that the same RBG logic of ACB’s refusal to hastily recuse herself may likewise apply here – that the A.G. should not make the decision to recuse without discussions or at least prior notification of others OUTSIDE OF DOJ who are affected by the recusal, including POTUS, VP, CoS, head of FBI, Chief Justice.
NO SUCH discussion or notification PRECLUDES the A.G. from recusing in a proper and timely fashion if properly warranted.This is KEY. In fact, hasty [media-driven] recusal by the A.G. to CAST LESS SUSPICION ON SELF becomes a self-serving act (downside of all virtue signals) which may unfairly CAST MORE SUSPICION ON OTHERS, or in SEVERAL important ways deprive OTHERS of their guaranteed rights, particularly of DUE PROCESS. That is a complicated but absolutely powerful point, and it is clear to me that the LAWFARE GANG understood it, when they talked Sessions into a HASTY RECUSAL which DEPRIVED THE WHITE HOUSE OF PROPER REPRESENTATION.
It’s the SCALES, amigos.
This is an example of an “Alinsky WIN”, not by making the other side live up to its well-considered rules (which would be a DRAW), but rather by making the other side live up to its rules TOO MUCH. Owning the MEDIA allows this kind of trick to work.
Note that Comey saying “Trump was not being investigated” was not exactly true, but his lie and/or legal façade still mocks the basic TRUE principle of “innocent until proven guilty”. This has a huge effect on things, but before I get to that, consider more deeply the Comey grift.
We don’t know if redactions are hiding the fact that Comey’s statement to Trump that he was not under investigation was a LIE, and we further note that if Trump was being investigated as an INTELLIGENCE matter, that is not the same as a LEGAL matter. Likewise, any “investigation” of Trump was more likely being done as “incidental” to investigating others, and thus under greater “color of law”, if not actual “cover of law”.
IN ANY CASE, if Trump was DUE the respect of being “treated as innocent” by the Constitution, then there is absolutely no excuse for the A.G. not to share the still-open question of recusal with Trump, and to get his input or response. Any other POLICY of DOJ is likely to be an unconstitutional HOLDERISM. The MEDIA can insinuate whatever it wants – Trump was innocent until proven guilty, and was entitled to make an INNOCENT decision that he needed a FRESH and UNRECUSED A.G., and not an ACTING A.G. who might be corrupt, biased, or subject to inappropriate pressures (meaning Sally Yates or Rod Rosenstein). He could have then made this critical point to HIS subordinate, the Attorney General, to consider and possibly reject. Note that this is all about DUE PROCESS – the fact that we must not ASSUME guilt on the part of either Trump or Sessions, either in the past, or even more importantly IN THE FUTURE.
The fact that Jeff Sessions was TARGETED by DOJ staff to talk him into a hasty recusal and deprive President Trump of his rights may in fact be CRIMINAL. It was certainly LAWFARE, and thus I think it is very important to know if people OUTSIDE DOJ in the “lawfare” community had a hand in it.
Bottom line – somebody knew they could push Jeff Sessions into hasty recusal to create “The Hoax”, and do EVEN WORSE than to simply deprive President Trump of his Constitutional rights. Depriving Trump of his rights was THEN used for a political impeachment, likewise an abuse of power.
