The Clinton Dossier Disclosures

by

The Washington Post reported yesterday that Hillary Clinton, her campaign and the DNC were officially behind the funding of the Trump Dossier.

For this reporting, say a big thank you to Devin Nunes.

The Chairman of the House Intelligence Committee – a Republican Representative from California’s San Joaquin Valley – has been aggressively pursuing the false allegations and disinformation campaign put forth by Democrats.

It started with finding evidence of Obama’s surveillance of President Trump – see, Devin Nunes, Classified Intelligence and Schiff’s Political Pretense.

But is was a July 27, 2017 letter – actually two letters – that really brought things to lightContinue Reading

Unraveling – Undisclosed Emails & Two Joint House Committee Investigations

by

Hillary Clinton appears to be having a difficult week.

There have been three significant announcements – one by Judicial Watch yesterday and two investigation joint House Committee announcements made today.

In a Monday interview on C-Span, Hillary Clinton stopped blaming everyone except Chelsea for her election loss just long enough to make this claim on Uranium One:

I would say it’s the same baloney they’ve been peddling for years, and there’s been no credible evidence by anyone. In fact, it’s been debunked repeatedly and will continue to be debunked…Continue Reading

The Draining of the Swamp

by

My past two posts have centered around new revelations relating to Uranium One – and the involvement of both the Clintons and the Obama Administration.

While these items are highly significant they herald something even greater.

It’s the Significance of Timing.

Question: Why are these new revelations emerging at this point?

Answer: The D.C. Swamp is starting to self-drain.Continue Reading

Russian Collusion – Bribes, Coverups, Clinton & Uranium One

by

The Hill just published an article containing new information on Russian bribes, Hillary Clinton and the sale of Uranium One to Russia.

The article is titled, FBI uncovered Russian bribery plot before Obama administration approved controversial nuclear deal with Moscow. For those unfamiliar, The Hill is actually a Center-Left publication…

While we have previously known some sordid details about the Uranium One transaction…

Clinton’s approval of the Uranium One deal while Secretary of State, transferred more than 20% of the U.S. uranium supply to Russia. The Clinton Foundation received $31 million with a pledge for $100 million more as a result. Ultimately, the Clinton Foundation received $145 million in “donations” from nine shareholders of Uranium One. Most of these “donations” were not legally disclosed by the Clinton Foundation.

…details regarding the DOJ’s and FBI’s knowledge of bribery, kickbacks, extortion and money laundering by Russia at the time of the Uranium One transaction is new information.

If public, this information would almost certainly have prevented approval of Uranium One’s sale to Russia.Continue Reading

Hillary Clinton, Judicial Watch & A Job for Jeff Sessions

by

Tom Fitton and Judicial Watch recently obtained 1,606 pages of documents from the U.S. State Department that showed transmission of classified data by Clinton aides – including Huma Abedin. Many emails showed acts of Clinton Foundation donors requesting – and obtaining – favors. A separate release (discussed further down) pertains to talking points developed by the Justice Department in relation to the Bill Clinton-Loretta Lynch Tarmac Meeting. From Judicial Watch’s Huma Abedin email press release:

The documents were obtained in response to a court order from a May 5, 2015, lawsuit filed against the State Department (Judicial Watch, Inc. v. U.S. Department of State (No. 1:15-cv-00684)) after it failed to respond to a March 18, 2015, Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request.

Judicial Watch today released 1,606 pages of documents from the U.S. Department of State revealing repeated use of unsecured communications for classified information and numerous examples of Clinton Foundation donors receiving special favors from former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s staff.Continue Reading

Fusion GPS, the Trump Dossier, Russian Money & the Magnitsky Act

by

Fusion GPS is the firm who commissioned the infamous – and discredited – Steele dossier on President Trump. Fusion GPS is currently stonewalling the Senate Judiciary Committee’s investigation into Fusion GPS ties to the Democratic Party. And Fusion steadfastly refuses to say who paid for the dossier.

Now, it turns out that Fusion GPS was employed by the Russian government – at the exact same time that Fusion commissioned the Trump dossier.

Stop and think on that a moment.

The FBI was actually utilizing propaganda potentially commissioned by Russia as a reason for launching the entire Trump-Russian investigation in the first place.Continue Reading

14 Issues Worthy of Investigation – A House Judiciary Request

by

The House Judiciary Committee issued a press release on July 27, 2017, stating that a formal request for the appointment of a second Special Counsel has been made to Attorney General Jeff Sessions and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein. The actual letter may be viewed here.

The Judiciary Committee members were specific in their request. They are asking for investigation into the following:

The members call for the appointment of a second special counsel to investigate grave concerns such as former Attorney General Lynch’s directive to former FBI Director Comey to mislead the American people on the nature of the investigation into former Secretary Clinton; the FBI and Justice Department’s investigative decisions related to the Clinton email investigation, including the immunity deals given to potential co-conspirators; selected leaks of classified information that unmasked U.S. persons incidentally collected upon by the intelligence community; and the FBI’s reliance on “Fusion GPS” in its investigation of the Trump campaign, among many others issues.Continue Reading

President Trump, Special Counsel & Some Relevant Facts

by

The Democrats have managed to pressure Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein into appointing former FBI Director Robert Mueller as Special Counsel to handle the Russian Investigation.

My question is – other than being a pressured response to external political forces – why?

There is no evidence of collusion between President Trump and the Russian Government. None.

This has been repeatedly – although reluctantly – stated by senior Democrats like Dianne Feinstein. Feinstein is the ranking member on the Senate Judiciary Committee and a member of the Senate Intelligence Committee. She has access to the best levels of information. Here is her May 18th, 2017 exchange with Wolf Blitzer of CNN:Continue Reading
