An Empty Flynn Investigation & Obama-Clinton Complicity

by

General Michael Flynn, former National Security Advisor to President Trump, plead guilty to lying to the FBI regarding his conversations with Russia’s ambassador to the United States.

Flynn is pleading guilty to a one-count criminal information. The Statement of the Offense may be found here.

The false-statement charge stems from Flynn’s conversations on December 22, 2016 and December 29, 2016, with Russian ambassador Sergei Kislyak. The first conversation was about an anti-Israel resolution that the Obama administration abstained from, while the second conversation involved sanctions on Russia.Continue Reading

Shepard Smith Ignores Damning Facts in Uranium One Scandal

by

Uranium One is back in the news thanks to Shepard Smith, who laid out his version of events relating to Uranium One. From Smith’s monologue:

Here’s the accusation. Nine people involved in the deal made donations to the Clinton Foundation totaling more than $140 million. In exchange, Secretary of State [Hillary] Clinton approved the sale to the Russians, a quid-pro-quo.

That statement is inaccurate in a number of ways.Continue Reading

FOIA Documents, FBI Preservation Requests, the CFIUS & Uranium One

by

By now, everyone is aware – at least to some extent – of Hillary Clinton’s involvement in the Uranium One transaction. It ultimately generated almost $150 million in donations to the Clinton Foundation and resulted in the sale of 20% of U.S. Uranium to Russia.

It was a transaction that should never have been allowed to occur.

It turns out there may be much more to the story.Continue Reading

by

Paul Manafort and his long-time protege Richard Gates were both indicted today.

Manafort’s indictment comes as no surprise given the July pre-dawn FBI raid on his home.

Manafort and Gates were indicted by a federal grand jury on 12 counts: conspiracy against the United States, conspiracy to launder money, unregistered agent of a foreign principal, false and misleading FARA statements, lying to investigators and seven counts of failure to file reports of foreign bank and financial accounts.Continue Reading

Obama’s DOJ Slush Fund Deception

by

Back in March, I wrote about the Department of Justice’s Slush Fund.

The Working Group was created within the Justice Department by Eric Holder in 2012 as a means of prosecution and punishment for those perceived to be responsible for the financial crisis of 2008.

At its formation Mr. Holder made the following statement:

Over the past three years, we have been aggressively investigating the causes of the financial crisis.  And we have learned that much of the conduct that led to the crisis was unethical, and, in many instances, extremely reckless.  We also have learned that behavior that is unethical or reckless may not necessarily be criminal.  When we find evidence of criminal wrongdoing, we bring criminal prosecutions.  When we don’t, we endeavor to use other tools available to us.Continue Reading

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
