Republican Congressman Defends Antifa Tweet

ROGER STONE: FIVE REASONS WHY PRESIDENT TRUMP WAS RIGHT TO PARDON SHERIFF JOE ARPAIO

1. Apraio’s prosecution was a political “revenge prosecution” initiated by the Obama DOJ to stop Sheriff Arpaio from rigorous enforcement of the immigration laws.

As previously reported, the case against Arpaio began with the 2007 traffic stop that resulted in the arrest of Ortega Melendres, a Mexican tourist who was a passenger in an automobile stopped in Cave Creek, Maricopa County.

Melendres charged the Maricopa County sheriff’s officers were “fundamentally stopping brown-skinned people with the pretext of looking for criminals.”

The case developed into a class action lawsuit that caught the attention of Tom Perez, then in the Civil Rights division of the Obama Justice Department.

As explained in an article published by the Law Enforcement Charitable Foundation, Inc., the Obama administration unleashed Perez to utilize the 1994 Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act, authored by then Democratic Sen. Joseph Biden of Delaware – a law that gave the Obama administration under Attorneys General Eric Holder and Loretta Lynch a club with which to “police the police.”

That club in the form of “consent decrees” allowed the leftist “open borders” administration of Barack Obama eight years to utilize the Justice Department as a club to intimidate and force any state and local government law enforcement authority attempting to enforce immigration laws to buckle under various charges of civil rights violations.

Thorough court-ordered “consent decrees” the Obama administration Justice Department forced Sheriff Arpaio’s office in Maricopa County to accept a consent decree imposed by an Obama-sympathetic U.S. district judge that effectively put the MCSO under the direction of a court-ordered federal monitor.

Arpaio, a target of the Obama administration for years because of his determination to enforce strictly existing immigration laws, was seen by Perez as implementing in the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office (MCSO) a “systematic policy” that set law enforcement rules and procedures to be intentionally discriminatory to the rights of Hispanics.

Perez began his legal career as a LaRaza attorney in Maryland. He currently is Chair of the Democratic National Committee, a major force in moving the Democratic Party in a hard-left direction.

 

2. DOJ staged prosecution to oust Arpaio from office.

Largely as a result of the adverse publicity from facing criminal contempt charges, Arpaio lost on Nov. 8, 2016, his seventh bid to be elected Maricopa County Sheriff.

The challenger, Paul Penzone, a Democrat and a former Phoenix police sergeant who lost to Arpaio in 2012, won the sheriff’s election, 54.9 percent to 45.1 percent, running on a campaign designed to be sympathetic to Arizona’s growing Hispanic voter base.

Throughout the entire case, Perez pursued Arpaio with a vengeance.

On Jan. 5, 2012, when the Department of Justice dropped the initial criminal case against Arpaio in favor of pursuing the civil case, the Department of Justice sent the author an email, explaining, “If MCSO wants to debate the facts rather than fixing the problems stated in our findings, we will do so by way of litigation.”

According to information provided the author by a credible whistleblower, while the Department of Justice was prosecuting Arpaio from 2008 to 2010, the National Security Agency conducted electronic surveillance of the various Arizona-based federal judges on the case, as well as on Arpaio, and on the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office.

At the same time, Department of Justice attorneys under the direction of Attorney General Eric Holder maintained an on-going telephone back-channel discussion with the federal judge assigned to handle the case.

That the Department of Justice conspired to defeat Arpaio is suggested by the timing of his criminal indictment.

On Oct. 2, 2013, U.S. District Judge G. Murray Snow ruled that Arpaio and his agency had relied on racial profiling and illegal detentions to target Hispanic.

Snow ordered Arpaio to make mandatory changes in MCSO office law enforcement procedures, requiring officers to radio the basis for each traffic stop before contacting people in the vehicle, the video recording of all traffic stops, increased training for and monitoring of MCSO office employees, and the implementation of comprehensive record keeping.

On May 12, 2016, Judge Snow held Arpaio in civil contempt of federal court, ruling that Arpaio an three of his aides violated the judge’s 2013 order that was meant to curtail “racial profiling” by MCSO officers.

In mid-October 2016, with the election approximately three weeks away, the Justice Department announced that lawyers were preparing to file criminal contempt of court charges against Arpaio for his alleged violation of Judge Stone’s orders in the Melendres case.

Then, on Nov. 4, 2016, four days before the election, Politico reported Soros had contributed $2 million to a Soros-funded PAC, Maricopa Strong, to defeat Arpaio.

Largely as a result of the adverse publicity from facing criminal contempt charges, Arpaio lost on Nov. 8, 2016, his seventh bid to be elected Maricopa County Sheriff.

The challenger, Paul Penzone, a Democrat and a former Phoenix police sergeant who lost to Arpaio in 2012, won the sheriff’s election, 54.9 percent to 45.1 percent, running on a campaign designed to be sympathetic to Arizona’s growing Hispanic voter base.

 

3. Charged under the wrong statute and denied a jury trial.

Arpaio’s attorney, Mark Goldman, Goldman & Zillinger PLLC in Scottsdale, AZ, sent to Attorney General Sessions a letter dated June 22, 2017, that was requesting the Department of Justice to consider various pleas before the start of the bench trial then scheduled to begin on Monday, June 26, 2017, before U.S. District Judge Susan R. Bolton, in Phoenix, Arizona.

Several efforts were made to contact Attorney General Sessions directly and through trusted intermediaries in an effort to get Justice Department attention to Goldman’s letter.

Attorney General Sessions was insolated within the Justice Department so that all attempts to communicate with him failed.

Ultimately, Goldman’s letter was ignored, and with the Justice Department’s failure to intervene in the case, Judge Bolton began the bench trial against Arpaio as originally scheduled.

That letter, included here in the Scribed.com file below, went unanswered.

https://www.scribd.com/document/355916607/Arpaio-Sheriff-Arpaio-2017-06-22-Letter-to-Att-Gen-Jeff-Sessions

“The criminal contempt allegations stem from an alleged failure of the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Offices (MCSO) to comply with an Order of the Court (preliminary injunction) dated December 23, 2011,” Goldman’s letter read.

“This charge relates back to the prior Obama administration and a time when the Sheriff’s practices were in direct opposition to the Obama administration in regards to immigration policy,” Goldman’s letter continued. “The Sheriff was enforcing the law. The Obama administration appears to have been interested in doing the opposite for apparent political reasons.”

In the letter, Goldman argued the Obama Justice Department allowed Arpaio to be charged with criminal contempt misdemeanor charges under the wrong statute, precisely because the statute of limitations on the correct statute had run out, and the incorrect statute allowed Judge Bolton to deny Arpaio the right to a jury trial.

Here is what Goldman wrote:

In regards to other aspects of the prosecution, we request that you reconsider the DOJ’s prosecution of this matter because it was incorrectly brought under 18 U.S.C. Section 401. Section 401 relates to a simple criminal contempt of a lawful order. The matter should have been brought under 18 U.S.C. Section 402. Section 402 applies to contumacious conduct that is also a separate crime as more particularly described in the attached Petition. The allegations in this matter compel it to be prosecuted under 18 U.S.C. Section 402 that entitles the offender to a jury trial in accordance with 18 U.S.C. Section 3691. Additionally, Section 402 offenses come with a one year statute of limitations.

Given that the matter was not charged under the correct statute, and consequently the Department of Justice has deprived Sheriff Arpaio of his jury trial right and the applicable statute of limitations, in the interest of justice we request that you move the Court to dismiss the criminal contempt proceedings or, at the very least, move the Court to stay the trial pending a full review of this matter by your office.

Time is of the essence for the reason that this matter

Goldman also argued the Obama Justice Department had timed various announcement coincident with Arizona voting deadlines in 2016, so as to influence voters to defeat Arpaio’s bid for re-election – an effort Goldman claimed was successful.

“The announcements had an undeniable effect upon Sheriff Arpaio’s campaign to be elected to a seventh term in office,” Goldman wrote. “The impact on Sheriff Arpaio’s re-election campaign is clear.  He is no longer Sheriff.”

 

4. Obama holdovers in the DOJ Public Integrity Section

The irony of the case is that the criminal misdemeanor contempt charge is being pressed against Arpaio by the Public Integrity Section (PIN) of the Criminal Division of the U.S. Department of Justice – the section within the Justice Department that holds exclusive jurisdiction over the prosecution of alleged criminal official misconduct.

“How can the Public Integrity Section of the Justice Department prosecute me when all I did was to honestly enforce immigration laws on the books?” Arpaio asked Infowars.com in an exclusive telephone interview.

“The Public Integrity prosecutors who are still after me are all Obama hold-overs who went so far as to charge me under the wrong statute so they could deny me a jury trial, refusing to drop their open-borders amnesty agenda,” he argued.

“If this is Attorney General Sessions’ idea of ‘public integrity,’ then Sheriff Arpaio is right and Barack Obama is still running the Justice Department,” Arpaio said.

“How is it that Attorney General Sessions ignored a letter Sheriff Arpaio’s attorneys had hand-delivered to his office, when all Sheriff Arpaio requested was that the Justice Department consider insisting the Public Integrity Section would allow me my right as a U.S. citizen to a trial before a jury of my peers?” Arpaio asked.

“It’s ironic that Sheriff Arpaio is being persecuted by an Obama hold-over Justice Department Public Integrity Section that thinks denying him a jury trial doesn’t implicate them in official misconduct for which they should be charged and criminally prosecuted,” Arpaio insisted.

 

5. Arpaio’s attorneys prepare federal ethics charge against District Judge

After filing on Monday, Aug. 14, with the U.S. District Court two motions – one asking for acquittal and the other asking for a new trial, lawyers for Arpaio are preparing to file after sentencing, a federal ethics charge against Judge Bolton.

Arpaio’s attorney, Mark Goldman, Goldman & Zillinger PLLC in Scottsdale, AZ, explained to Infowars.com in an exclusive telephone interview and follow-up email that the judge in the case, U.S. District Susan R. Bolton, was so biased against Arpaio that she could have written her opinion before the trial even started, stating her prejudice from the start that Arpaio was guilty of misdemeanor civil contempt guilty conviction.

“The court, in its findings of fact and conclusions of law totally ignored all of the overwhelming evidence at trial that exonerated the Sheriff,” Goldman told Infowars.com.

“Most importantly, there was no testimony or other evidence produced that in any way proved that the order was ‘clear and definite’ which it must be in order to prove that the order could be disobeyed in the first place,” he continued.

“Not only did the government fail to prove that the order was clear and definite, we proved that it was not clear and definite,” Goldman insisted.  “The government’s own star witness, Tim Casey, admitted under cross-examination that the order was ‘ambiguous.’  Just about every witness testified that the order was misunderstood at the time.  No one testified that the order was clear and definite.”

Goldman explained that the Obama Department of Justice had charged Arpaio under the wrong statute, both because the statute of limitations had run out on the correct statute and by charging Arpaio under the wrong statute, Judge Bolton could deny him a jury trial.

“There was not testimony that the Sheriff ever told anyone that he was violating or going to violate the order,” he said.

“The government had the FBI and the DOJ working on this case, yet they couldn’t find one person to state that the Sheriff ever suggested that he’d violate the order,” he pointed out.

“Finally, it was proved at the trial that no one at the Sheriff’s department understood the voluminous 40-page order while it was in effect,” Goldman argued.  “Only in hindsight did they learn what the order meant after the Melendres court issued a subsequent order!”

ROGER STONE: ON BOYCOTTS AND CANNABIS

(By Roger Stone) Recently I launched a bipartisan effort to persuade President Donald Trump to honor his pledge made during the presidential campaign to respect the states’ rights to legalize marijuana for medicinal purposes.

Partnering with me in this important endeavor is Orlando trial attorney and major Clinton donor and fundraiser John Morgan, Fox News analyst Andrew Napolitano, Congressman Matt Gaetz and HBO’s Bill Maher among others.

I have written spoken, marched and rallied against for drug law reform for 20 years. As a libertarian, I am not a newcomer to this fight. I am also a witness in a new lawsuit filed against the Federal government to overturn the feds classification as a Schedule 1 drug.

I spoke to the Cannabis Business Expo in New York City in June, and the bipartisan approach I outlined including an effort to take Cannabis off the Schedule 1 drug classification so doctors can prescribe it to people who might benefit was well received. I am scheduled to speak before the LA- based Cannabis Business Expo on Sept 14.

Recent a small group of activists said they would boycott the Expo if I spoke and vowed to disrupt my speech if my remarks are not canceled.

It’s a free country. They are free not to attend. I have no intention of canceling my remarks which I am giving pro-bono while other major speakers are paid. I feel strongly about this cause.

This group of dissidents uses recycled” research” from Media Matters for America packaging it as a “boycott campaign” for my scheduled speech. The trolls and bots pushing this bullshit sure look like Brock, Carusone and they’re diminutive minions.

My twitter feed is lively and not for the faint of heart. I comment on many matters.This bogus claim I am a racist, anti-Semite or misogynist is based on old tweets that are either taken out of context, twisted or in some cases simply fabricated. I most certainly never referred to myself as a ‘N*gga with a Nixon Tattoo. It’s a Fugazi.

To be clear, I have been speaking out for drug law reform for over 30 years. I spoke along with the Reverend Al Sharpton and Russell Simmons and Drug Reform Activist Randy Credico at a “Countdown to Justice Rally” against New York’s racist, draconian Rockefeller drug laws in 2003. I spoke out again against these racist laws which destroy families and lives at the Yippie Museum in Greenwich Village in 2008. These are hardly the acts of a racist.

I am proud of my libertarian streak and have consistently supported human rights actively opposing an Anti-Gay Marriage Constitutional Amendment that was on the ballot in Florida. I also supported both campaigns to legalize medicinal marijuana by constitutional amendment in Florida.

Although I have been an acolyte and intimate of President Richard Nixon, I have been sharply critical of his failed War on Drugs. It was Nixon who, as Vice President was praised by Dr. Martin Luther King for rounding up enough Republican votes in the US Senate to offset the many southern white Democrats who opposed the 1958 Civil Rights Act. President Richard Nixon desegregated the public schools without violence or bloodshed. When LBJ left office, 10 percent of Southern schools were desegregated. When Nixon left, the figure was 80 percent.

Nixon also raised the Department of Justice Civil Rights Enforcement Budget 800 percent, doubled the budget for black colleges, appointed more blacks to federal posts and high positions than any president until that time, including LBJ. Nixon invented “Black Capitalism” (the Office of Minority Business Enterprise), raised U.S. purchases from black businesses from $9 million to $153 million, increased small business, loans to minorities 1,000 percent, and increased U.S. deposits in minority-owned banks 4,000 percent.

Nixon gave us Affirmative Action by adopting the Philadelphia Plan mandating for quotas for the number of blacks in unions, and in college and university admissions. This desegregated the trade unions. Yes, I’m a Nixon Republican.

There is no doubt that some of my tweets are too pungent and politically incorrect for my critics. I did use a word used by the US Census until 2011 that some construed to be a racial epitaph in tweets regarding Herman Cain, Dr. Ben Carson, Alan West and Roland Martin. In retrospect, I see that this attempt at sarcasm can be seen as a slur; therefore, I heartfully apologize to all this gentleman.

I don’t expect this apology to appease my critics because, like the President, nothing I say can please them. Like Trump, I don’t apologize as a general principle. I am violating one of my own Rules. In this case, it’s the right thing to do. I am hopeful some of these gentlemen will accept my apology as it is sincere.

I am many things, but I am not a racist.

There is no doubt that I sometimes use flamboyant, descriptive and politically incorrect language that some people find offensive. It’s 2017, and I suggest these people read the first amendment of the U.S. Constitution which guarantees free-speech even if it is sometimes vulgar. Note- what Media Matters is advocating is censorship, the silencing of those they disagree with. It is both un-American and more egregious than anything I have ever said or written in a 40-year career in American Politics.

I do not apologize for criticizing CNN talking head Ana Navarro based on her entire lack of credentials to opine and her false description as a “Republican strategist.” This is a woman who got caught lying about being an attorney during the Jeb Bush Administration (New York Times) Everything I have ever tweeted about her is accurate is not in any way a reflection of my views on all women.

New York’s Times columnist Gail Collins ripped off a riff about Mitt Romney strapping his dog to the roof of his car and driving to Boston, making it a running gag in her column. I wrote it first in a series of columns at STONEZONE.com. Odious. Dislike of Ms. Collins does not imply criticism of the entire gender of women.

Jill Abrams, formally of the Wall Street Journal, wrote a roundup story on the best-selling books at the time of the 50th anniversary of John F. Kennedy’s assassination and didn’t include my book, “The Man Who Killed Kennedy – The Case Against LBJ,” New York Times Bestseller. Also, it was selling more copies than any book of this genre other than Bill O’Reilly’s “Killing Kennedy” (FOX was a selling machine) and out-pacing experienced authors like David Talbot.

Abrams was cavalier about my complaint to her for failure to provide fundamental fairness her story. Thus, I saw her firing at the Wall Street Journal as a reflection of her bad karma. I don’t withdraw my criticism of her. It does not mean that I hate all women.

The access to cannabis for medical purposes that is used by millions of American will end if Jeff Sessions and White House Chief of Staff General John Kelly, aided by the new FBI Director have their way and reignite the “war on drugs” with a federal crackdown on state legalized marijuana. Thus starting a reversal of a directive of Attorney General Eric Holder by which the feds have wisely stood down. Only the President can stop this catastrophe.

The President has told me he is a strong supporter of medicinal marijuana. He has launched a just war on opioids which he has correctly said the real drug abuse crisis today. We must not only assure that the Trump Administration respects the State’s Rights to legalize and set up a system to regulate, tax and sell cannabis, we must also convince the President to take Cannabis off the Schedule 1 drug list.

I am confident both can be done and will not be hindered in my efforts to make this happen. This is not the time for petty partisan politics or the small minded.

You don’t need to agree with me or my politics nor do I need to agree with yours to work together in this vital effort. Our effort includes Republican and Democrats, liberals and conservatives, libertarians and progressives. We agree on only one thing- Cannabis.Those who do not choose to join us can step aside.

My critics are only playing politics and harming the cause of a united bipartisan effort to protect state legalized marijuana in the 29 states where the people have elected to make it legal. They are more interested in scoring petty political points than securing permanent drug law reform.

I will not be deterred from my efforts to persuade the President of the folly of launching a new “War on Drugs” considering the expensive and unjust failure of the last one and to keep his promise to protect the access to cannabis by millions of Americans including many veterans who are using it for medicinal purposes.

Christian Patriot Prayer Rally Labeled Racist By Pelosi & Media

This weekend we saw all over the news that the alt-Left communist group was attacking “right wing racists” in Berkeley which was another BIG LIE by the MEDIA.

The real story was that a “Patriot Prayer” and “UniteAmericaFirst” that includes Christian Patriots of all color were coming together to denounce Marxism, racism, and violence.

Before we can address any racism, we must hold the media accountable for the lies they spread.

But it gets worse………………..

Berkeley police deliberately allowed masked “Antifa” anarchists to jump a barricade and attack a demonstration by a peaceful right-wing group on Sunday, leading to five assaults, including on Patriot Prayer group leader Joey Gibson. (Breitbart)

The counter-demonstration had reportedly been “largely peaceful” until that point.

The police later defended their decision by arguing that keeping the anarchists out would have led to greater violence. There was “no need for a confrontation over a grass patch,” Berkeley police chief Andrew Greenwood said, according to the San Jose Mercury News.

But the Mercury News report, citing Berkeley law enforcement authorities directly, made it clear that police knew that “Antifa” intended to cause violence, and allowed it to happen:

Berkeley police chief Andrew Greenwood defended how police handled the protest, saying they made a strategic decision to let the anarchists enter to avoid more violence.

Greenwood said “the potential use of force became very problematic” given the thousands of peaceful protesters in the park. Once anarchists arrived, it was clear there would not be dueling protests between left and right so he ordered his officers out of the park and allowed the anarchists to march in.

The Associated Press corroborated that report: “Berkeley Police Chief Andrew Greenwood said officers were told not to actively confront the anarchists. He applauded officers’ restraint, saying it forestalled greater violence.”

The names of the 13 arrested were published by SFGate.com.

Gibson’s demonstration in San Francisco on Saturday was canceled amidst threats of violence and efforts by authorities to make it more difficult for Patriot Prayer to hold their event.

Roger Stone Predicts “Civil War” if President Trump Impeached

Former Trump adviser Roger Stone believes a civil war would ensue if Congress impeaches President Donald Trump.

Speaking to TMZ at the Los Angeles International Airport on Wednesday, Stone was asked what he believes would happen if Congress moves to strip Trump of his power.

“The people who are calling for his impeachment are the people who didn’t vote for him. They need to get over it. They lost. Their candidate had every advantage,” he said, pointing out that the Hillary Clinton campaign spent $2 billion dollars compared to the Trump campaign’s $275 million.

“Sorry, he whipped her a**. It’s over. You lost,” Stone said. “Try to impeach him. Just try it. You will have a spasm of violence in this country, an insurrection, like you’ve never seen.”  Roger Stone

Roger Stone Launches fire attack on Deep State Plotters (Video)

A small coalition of House Democrats has led the charge in pushing to impeach Trump. In July, Rep. Brad Sherman (D-Calif.) formally introduced articles of impeachment against Trump over his firing of former FBI Director James Comey, arguing the move amounted to obstruction of justice.

Rep. Steve Cohen (D-Tenn.) announced last week that he would introduce articles of impeachment against Trump over his comments following the violence at a white supremacist rally in Virginia.

Democratic leadership have pushed back on the impeachment efforts. House Minority leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said in a statement that Congress should set up an independent commission to investigate Trump’s potential ties to Russia.

“Leader Pelosi has repeatedly called for an outside, independent commission to get to the bottom of Trump’s connection to Russia’s interference in our election and to examine ways to protect the integrity of our democracy from foreign meddling in the future,” Ashley Etienne, a spokeswoman for Pelosi, said in a statement.

5 Reasons Why Boycotting Roger Stone’s 420 Speech Is Horrifically Stupid

Just as we are turning the tide and moving towards sensible marijuana policy nationwide, a few idiots are trying to set us back decades.

By Jacob Engels (Central Florida Post)

Roger Stone has mentored and advised President Donald Trump for nearly four decades. He has been encouraging Trump to run for President since 1988 and finally made his campaign for President a victorious reality in 2016.

These two men have attended each other’s weddings, family funerals, and still talk from time to time. Stone carries influence with Trump, that much cannot be disputed.

Roger Stone is also a longtime supporter of drug reform and legalization/medical marijuana.

Stone spoke at the 2003 “Countdown to Justice” rally against New York’s draconian racist “Rockefeller” drug laws over 15 years ago.

He believes in human rights, having opposed an Anti-Gay Marriage Constitutional Amendment in Florida and also supported both efforts to legalize marijuana for medicinal purposes in Florida.

Illustration by Jason Jack Underwood.

Recently, he founded the bi-partisan United States Cannabis Coalition to stop Attorney General Jeff Sessions “Reefer Madness” assault on marijuana entrepreneurs.

Stone is slated to speak at the Cannabis World Congress and Business Expo in Los Angeles next month, but according to MerryJane, some vendors and attendees want the longtime political operative removed from the speaking bill.

These ‘protestors” utilize re-cycled “research” from the pro-Hillary Media Matters for America, which purports to label Stone as a “racist”, ‘Anti-Semite” and “Misogynist. Stone is none of these things- it’s a smear.

In fact, Stone has apologized for a few things he said while “in character.”

Here are 5 reasons why that is utter bullshit. If there is one thing almost 75% of Americans can agree on, marijuana would be it.

1). TRUE BI-PARTISAN APPEAL: Stone’s bi-partisan United States Cannabis Coalition features people across the political spectrum. Hillary Clinton mega-donor and Democratic moneyman John Morgan is on the advisory board. HBO’s Bill Maher was added last week. Fox News’ Judge Andrew Napolitano and Florida GOP Congressman Matt Gaetz  Pastor are also board members.

2). NORML HEAD BACKS STONE COALITION: Norm Kent, the Chairman of the National Organization for Reform of Marijuana Laws has been advising Stone and providing his insight in how to protect providers from Jeff Sessions planned assault on growers, providers, and investors.

3). MARIJUANA IS A UNIFYING FORCE: Yes, you may disagree with some of Stone’s political stances and his support of Donald Trump. However, marijuana is the only thing that the majority of Americans, no matter their political beliefs, can agree on. It’s asinine to try and purge Republicans/Conservatives/Libertarians from becoming part of the solution.

4). TRUE REFORM WON’T HAPPEN WITHOUT STONE: He is our last best hope in terms of convincing President Trump (first examined in The Weed Report), who does not smoke or drink, to get Jeff Sessions in line. During the campaign, Trump adopted and campaigned on a “states rights” approach to 420. Stone has the best shot at communicating the importance of President Trump keeping that campaign promise.

5). TRUMP’S FOCUS ON OPIOID CRISIS IS BACKDOOR FOR 420: President Trump has already started to roll-out his plans to attack the opioid epidemic that is facing this nation, an issue he is deeply concerned about. With the support of the cannabis industry at his back, Stone can help President Trump see the benefit of marijuana as a form of medicine, he might even be able to sell him on the economic benefit of full legalization.

To be completely honest, the marijuana/drug reform movement has not had an opportunity like this… EVER. For the first time, we have a majority of Republicans standing arm in arm with Democrats and Independents for sensible reform and 420 policy.

Media Matters for America is responsible for this phony hit job on Stone.

Jacked up by the screamers at MMFA a vocal minority thinks it is more important to squabble about petty political differences. They think that booting Stone from speaking at the Cannabis World Congress and Business Expo is “revolutionary.”

This behavior is not revolutionary. This behavior is not some honorable stand. It’s selfish, petty, and short-sighted.

If they think that they can really pass reform without the support of President Trump, Roger Stone, Republicans, Conservatives, Libertarians… why hasn’t that calculus worked the past 40 years?

It hasn’t worked because politics is about addition, not subtraction… SIMPLE MATH. Don’t be horrifically stupid CWBCExpo… unite and fight for the right to #GetStoned!

Double Standard Debbie: Stop Lying!

Debbie Wasserman Schultz (DWS) has been caught, yet again.

By Taylor Foland

Thirty-seven-year-old Imran Awan was a former IT staffer for the House of Representatives, along with several other of his family members. Imran was arrested on July 25, 2017 at Dulles International Airport for bank fraud while attempting to flee the country for Pakistan. Back in February, there was an investigation opened into several people related to Imran who were also IT staffers in the House of Representatives. The people included in that investigation were: Imran himself, his brothers Amid and Jamal, his wife, and a family friend. Imran and people connected to him worked for nearly thirty Congressmen and women, providing technical support for them.

Imran virtually had access to everything that was going on within the House of Representatives, including the House Intelligence Committee. He had access to the House Intelligence Committee’s server, as well as the House Foreign Affairs Committee’s server, and had access to several computer mainframes with classified intelligence on them. Wasserman Schultz kept Imran on payroll after everyone else had already fired him (and his family). This is a scandal that could be connected to past scandals, including the DNC hacking. The Democratic National Convention, and the Democratic National Committee were unprotected when it came to their IT networks. You would have thought that the DNC would have had rigorous security, but they didn’t. Debbie Wasserman obviously was fired from her position as Chairwoman of the DNC.

Could Imran be connected to the Clinton email scandal? In some way?

This is just the tip of the iceberg, this strange and disturbing story has more beneath its surface. Representative Ron DeSantis (Florida’s Sixth Congressional District) is calling for the Attorney General to investigate Debbie Wasserman Schultz. Carla Spalding is running against Debbie Wasserman Schultz, and is calling for her resignation.

Wasserman-Schultz put up a pretty pathetic defense, to say the absolute least. She claimed that anti-Muslim sentiment was why Imran was being targeted, and that it was the “right thing” to keep him on payroll for a different position. Debbie Wasserman Schultz was trying to shift everything back to identity politics, like most Democrats do when confronted with reality, and facts.

The Democratic Party operates on the insanity of identity politics. However, by March, this year most Democrats had fired these four IT staffers, with the exception being Debbie Wasserman Schultz’s office with Imran Awan! So, for Debbie Wasserman Schultz to act like such a racial justice warrior is just beyond the pale really, it’s quite absurd. This story should be covered more, but the mainstream media, as usual, is completely one-sided and extremely biased. Imran Awan’s wife, Hina Alvi was one of those fired IT consultants, after being fired she left the country in March, and abruptly took her children out of school.

According to Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, Chuck Grassley, the amount of pay that these contractors received was more than three times the normal rate for the same positions. It’s estimated by the Chairman that these people collected over four million dollars over the last thirteen years. Why so much money?

Imran’s attorney, Christopher Gowan released a statement which blames “a frenzy of anti-Muslim bigotry” and “extremist right-wing bloggers” for the firings of the IT consultants, including Imran. Except, there is a contradiction is that statement, because Debbie Wasserman Schultz was the last Democrat to keep Imran on her payroll, under a different duty. All other Democrats had already fired the others. DWS decided to keep Imran on-board after everyone else had fired his family, and the family friend.

According to an official FBI affidavit, Imran had wired over $283,000 to Pakistan, $165,000 of that sum of money being wired from a faulty home-equity loan. Imran was arrested for bank fraud, upon his arrest, only then did DWS fire him. This is the definition of “the swamp”. A story made complete with bank fraud, and corrupt officials on Capitol Hill covering for people. The only reasonable explanation that comes to mind of why Wasserman Schultz would do this is that there was some kind of secret deal between her and Imran, perhaps related to the DNC.

Why else would she have kept him on for so long, and then throw him under the bus when he was arrested?

The mainstream media’s coverage of this story has dwindled in recent days. (Not surprising.) As usual, the liberal press sides with the democratic view: that Debbie Wasserman Schultz was protecting an innocent IT staffer, from religious discrimination, and “Muslim bashing.” Instead of reporting on any alleged corruption, they slant the views in a way that makes it seem like Conservatives are the ones in the wrong. It’s the playbook the Democrats have used every single time.

The New York Times (failing fake news) came out with a July 28 article with a clear liberal bias: “conservative news outlets have built a case against Imran Awan, his wife, two brothers and a friend, piece by piece.” No coverage on why she kept him on so long though? Why would she have kept him on payroll by then switching his job title? This story has ‘cover-up’ written all over it.

The double standard is glaring, and it is the last thing the mainstream media wants to talk about. So, this story will continue to grow, all the way until the Midterms. This is the reason why Congress has below 20% approval. This Imran, was being paid by the government to cover in some way for DWS. There needs to be a thorough investigation conducted into this situation.

Let’s not hold our breath on that one though! We are still waiting for Eric Holder, Susan Rice, Hillary, Samantha Power, Loretta Lynch, and James Comey to be investigated, and held accountable. We’re still waiting.

With all this being said, the real losers here are the people in District 23 of Florida. They have someone in the House of Representatives who is using their prestige, their office, and their power to intimidate and threaten people, it’s disgraceful.

Why is the House Ethics Committee not throwing the book at DWS? After the violation of security policies, why did DWS allow Imran Awan to stay on her office’s payroll? The Washington Post, the New York Times, and other liberal outlets have reported so voraciously on Russia, but barely covered this.

It is looking more and more unlikely that DWS will answer any questions on this subject. It is time to DRAIN THE SWAMP. There is more to this story, don’t let it go.

11 Counties Have More Voters than Voting-Age Citizens

(By  JOEL B. POLLAK at Breibart.com)   Judicial Watch, a conservative watchdog organization, has sent a letter to California Secretary of State Alex Padilla on behalf of the Election Integrity Project, noting that there are 11 counties in the state with more registered voters, and alleging that the state may be out of compliance with Section 8 of the National Voter Registration Act (NVRA).

The letter reads, in part:

NVRA Section 8 requires states to conduct reasonable list maintenance so as to maintain an accurate record of eligible voters for use in conducting federal elections.1 As you may know, Congress enacted Section 8 of the NVRA to protect the integrity of the electoral process. Allowing the names of ineligible voters to remain on the voting rolls harms the integrity of the electoral process and undermines voter confidence in the legitimacy of elections.

…

As the top election official in California, it is your responsibility under federal law to coordinate California’s statewide effort to conduct a program that reasonably ensures the lists of eligible voters are accurate.

Judicial Watch lays out the specifics: “[T]here were more total registered voters than there were adults over the age of 18 living in each of the following eleven (11) counties: Imperial (102%), Lassen (102%), Los Angeles (112%), Monterey (104%), San Diego (138%), San Francisco (114%), San Mateo (111%), Santa Cruz (109%), Solano (111%), Stanislaus (102%), and Yolo (110%).” The letter notes that the percentage in L.A. Country may be as high as 144%.

The letter contains a threat to sue the Secretary of State if Padilla does not remove from the rolls “persons who have become ineligible to vote by reason of death, change in residence, or a disqualifying criminal conviction, and to remove noncitizens who have registered to vote unlawfully.” It gives Padilla 14 days to respond, and 90 days to correct alleged violations of the law.

Padilla has been one of the main voices in opposition to President Donald Trump’s Presidential Advisory Commission on Election Integrity, refusing to share voter data with it on the argument that doing so would “legitimize false claims of massive election cheating last fall.”

President Trump has claimed that he would have won the popular vote in the 2016 presidential election if not for illegal voting, and his administration has singled outCalifornia as a possible contributor to that margin.

The Election Integrity Project is a California-based volunteer organization that monitors voting irregularities.

Why McMaster Has To Go

By Roger Stone (Big League Politics)

President Trump’s National Security Advisor H.R. McMaster is a Globalist with long ties to George Soros. How did such a person even get hired in the Trump White House? McMaster was promoted for the job by the President’s son-in-law Jared Kushner, a liberal Democrat who falsely claimed he was responsible for Trump’s election. Kushner persuaded the President to fire Gen. Mike Flynn even though there is still no evidence of any crime by Flynn. Flynn was a strong supporter of the President’s “America First” foreign policy.

McMaster is a close friend and ally of the President’s new Chief of Staff General John Kelly who makes no bones about his plans to isolate the President and cut off his communications with those who oppose the Globalist neocon agenda. “They plan to treat the President like a mushroom – keep him in the dark and feed him shit ” one longtime Trump personal security guard told me.

McMaster cleaned house at the NSC over the past few weeks, firing Trump loyalists and protecting Obama holdovers. McMaster even cleared Susan Rice of any wrongdoing, to his limited ability to actually do so, and let her keep her Top-Secret security clearance, even though she is a self-admitted liar and clearly engaged in illegal political espionage using information obtained through unconstitutional surveillance of Trump’s associates including this author.

Sources in Israeli Intelligence have confirmed that McMaster has been intercepted in direct communication with Soros, as I reported on InfoWars last week.

McMaster leaked information regarding Donald Trump Jr. (who, despite media hysteria has also done nothing wrong) to former Acting FBI Director Andy McCabe and has personally been attacking Trump’s family.

McMaster has been trying to oust Trump loyalist and non-Interventionist foreign policy advisor Sebastian Gorka. McMaster is quoted as saying an “America First” foreign policy as espoused by Gorka and embraced by the President is “naive”.

McMaster was affiliated with the International Institute for Strategic Studies (IISS), an organization funded by multiple governments in the Middle East and George Soros. The IISS has been credited as being a driving force in creating “intellectual structures for managing the Cold War.” The IISS famously boasted that it “owes no allegiance to any government, or to any political or other organization.” The IISS receives funding from defense contractors like Lockheed Martin Corporation and Northrop Grumman and middle eastern entities like Executive Affairs Authority of Abu Dhabi, The Saudi Arabian Ministry of Defense, the China Institute of International Studies (CIIS), the embassies of China, Egypt, Turkey, Qatar, Kuwait, Oman, the United Arab Emirates and the High Commission for Pakistan.

The McMaster-backed IISS also accepted donations from George Soros’ Open Society Foundation and the Ploughshares Fund.

As his chief deputy McMaster has Dina Habib Powell, an alum of the Bush White House Staff who is a close friend of Obama Chief of Staff Valerie Jarrett and Hillary Clinton henchwoman Huma Abedin as well as Condoleeza Rice — who as Bush’s National Security Advisor pushed the phony Iraq War. Rice has disproportionate influence with Trump Secretary of State Rex Tillerson.

Incredibly McMaster has also recruited a former Soros staffer from his Open Society Institute, Fiona Hill, as the NSC’s expert on Russia. Hill has been pressuring the Hungarian and Romanian governments to stop their resistance to Soros efforts to undermine those democratically elected governments

The President is in grave danger and the future of Trumpism is in doubt as long as quislings like McMaster are at the helm.

The Real Collusion

By Roger Stone

A once top-secret intelligence memo recently declassified by the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISA) and reviewed by Circa shows roughly ten pages listing hundreds of violations by the FBI of their privacy-protecting minimization rules while James Comey was director.  The FISA report was in direct contradiction to Comey’s testimony to the Senate Intelligence Committee.

During a round of questions about securing and defending the privacy of American citizens, Comey stated under oath that his agency used collected surveillance data from Americans without a warrant.  Director Comey then continued that this use of data was to be only when it was “lawfully collected, carefully overseen and checked.”  In order to further cement the appearance of his agency’s commitment to uphold citizen’s privacy, Comey added, “Nobody gets to see FISA information of any kind unless they’ve had the appropriate training and have the appropriate oversight.”

This FISA report shows clearly that James Comey was lying during his testimony and that he should be criminally charged.

Among the violations declassified in the FISA report are examples of the FBI sharing data illegally with third parties, including a ‘private entity’ with no legal right to access the information.  Comey’s FBI also gathered protected attorney client communications that had been intercepted without using the oversight procedures he claimed were of the highest importance.

The spying, done illegally on Trump and thousands of other Americans was not only a gross abuse of power unmatched in recent memory, but a serious assault on the 4^th Amendment which guarantees the rights of all Americans against unlawful search and seizure.

The American Civil Liberties Union said that newly disclosed violations are some of the most serious to ever be documented.   To give a brief rundown of these violations we need look no further than rank and file members of the intelligence community.  Here is what they told FOX NEWS.

1) Surveillance targeting the Trump team during the Obama administration began long ago, even before the president had become the GOP nominee in July.

2) The spying on the Trump team had nothing to do with the collection of foreign intelligence or an investigation into Russia election interference.

3) The spying was done purely “for political purposes” that “have nothing to do with national security and everything to do with hurting and embarrassing Trump and his team.”

4) The person who did the unmasking was someone “very well known, very high up, very senior in the intelligence world, and is not in the FBI.”

5) Congressional investigators know the name of at least one person who was unmasking names.

6)  The initial surveillance on the Trump team led to “a number of names” being unmasked.

For an American citizen to be “unmasked” in an intelligence report is extremely rare.  Usually the person is a suspect in a crime, is in danger or whose name has to be revealed to explain the context of a report.  The members of Trump’s transition team who were unmasked, were not linked with any intelligence about Russia, were not in danger or suspects of a crime.

After nearly one year of constant accusations and investigations that are costing the taxpayers millions of dollars, there is nothing to support a Trump/ Russia collusion.  The real collusion is the one that has been nearly buried under the weight of the 24-hour reporting of fake news by America’s mainstream media.  The collusion is between Obama, his administration, James Comey, British Intelligence, the NSA and the FBI for the purpose of spying on Trump and his transition team for political gain.

The FISA report disclosed massive data gathering of Americans using Section 702 of the Foreign Surveillance Act.  Section 702 allows the FBI access (without a warrant) of U.S. citizen’s communications with ‘foreign targets’ that have been collected by the NSA.  Without proper justification for using the 702 law, the FBI cannot conduct surveillance or collect data on Americans.  Section 702 is up for renewal this year.  All of these safeguards were ignored by Comey’s FBI.

Amy Jeffress, the former top security adviser to former Attorney General Eric Holder was appointed by FISA in 2015 to give an independent review of the FBI’s record of compliance.  Jeffress came to the conclusion that FBI searches of NSA data extended far beyond national security issues.

In other revelations Accuracy In Media reported that a source for The British Guardian now admitted that British spy agency GCHQ had been digitally wiretapping Trump associates as far back as 2015.

With the approval of then CIA Director John Brennan, computerized espionage was used against Trump and people he worked with for political purposes.   A total of six U.S. intelligence agencies were involved in the formation of a task force to investigate the Trump associates during the campaign.  The task force was made up of CIA, NSA, FBI, Justice Department’s National Security Division, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence and the Treasury Department’s Financial Crimes Unit.  CIA boss Brennan initiated this illegal domestic operation against the Trump campaign.

The Russian collusion charge was just a smoke screen to hide a deeper, darker action; to break Trump’s back and bring victory to the Witch of Washington, Hillary Clinton.

Judicial Watch announced that it had failed in its efforts to get information about why White House adviser Susan Rice ordered the “unmasking” of Trump campaign officials in classified reports.

The House Intelligence Committee issued subpoenas to determine if the unmasking was politically motivated.  One step ahead, the National Security Council had sent all those records to Obama’s presidential library, where they can’t be released for five years.  Those records contained evidence of intelligence abuses and cover ups by Rice, Brennan, former Ambassador to the U.N. Susan Power and others in the Obama White House.

There have been comparisons made of Trump and Watergate but when one considers that Nixon’s presidency started to unravel by the discovery of the bugging of his political rivals, we can see that Obama went far beyond a simple phone tapping.

The silver tongued Obama deliberately exploited our domestic and foreign intelligence gathering agencies to spy on his political opponents.  He did this on a massive scale.  Obama was to have paved the way for a democratic win in 2016.

Yet it wasn’t just about Trump.  In an analysis published by Tablet magazine, Lee Smith wrote  “At some point, the (Obama) administration weaponized the NSA’s legitimate monitoring of communications of foreign officials to stay one step ahead of domestic political opponents,” says a pro-Israel political operative who was deeply involved in the day-to-day fight over the Iran Deal.  “The NSA’s collections of foreigners became a means of gathering real-time intelligence on Americans engaged in perfectly legitimate political activism — activism, due to the nature of the issue, that naturally involved conversations with foreigners..”  Trump wasn’t the first target.

The Obama spying scandal includes the Iran deal.  In December 2015, the Wall Street Journal revealed that the Obama administration used the NSA to cast a wide net of surveillance around Israeli officials and diplomats, as well as American lawmakers who were friendly towards Israel as well as Jewish-American groups.

According to an investigative piece by National Review, “ the administration’s targeting of journalists, including (a) attorney general Eric Holder’s approval of the seizure of personal and business phone records of Associated Press reporters en masse (i.e., not a particularized search targeting a specific journalist suspected of wrongdoing); and (b) Holder’s approval of a warrant targeting the e-mails of Fox News reporter James Rosen in a leak investigation — based on an application in which the government represented to a federal court that the journalist could be guilty of a felony violation of the Espionage Act in connection with a leak of classified information (in addition to purportedly being a “flight risk”).” More from the National Review article…

 “The CIA’s accessing of Senate Intelligence Committee computers and staff e-mails — which CIA director John Brennan initially denied, then apologized for after it was confirmed by an inspector-general report. The investigation of Trump associate Carter Page, including a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act warrant based on the claim that Page was a Russian agent, which would have authorized monitoring of Page’s communications — including any with Trump, then the Republican nominee for president. The criminal leaking to the media of former Trump national-security adviser Michael Flynn’s communications with the Russian ambassador to the U.S. The “unmasking” of identities of Americans (connected to Trump) at the behest of Obama national-security adviser Susan Rice, a White House staffer and Obama confidant. The promulgation in the last days of Obama’s presidency of new rules enabling the spreading of raw intelligence, including “unmasked” American identities, across the 17-agency U.S. “intelligence community” — which significantly increased the likelihood of leaks. At the same time, according to former Obama Defense Department official Evelyn Farkas, current and former Obama officials were encouraging the transmission of information regarding Trump and his associates to Capitol Hill, further magnifying the potential for leaking.”

What we have is the collusion of an outgoing president with various intelligence agencies and their directors to spy not only on thousands of Americans illegally, but to spy on the Trump campaign, leak information, create a false narrative, and hopefully destroy Mr. Trump’s campaign.  Who needs the Russians to thwart our democracy?  We had Obama!

The conspirators need to be formerly charged with crimes of treason.  Obama, Brennan, Comey, Rice, and a host of others need to be publicly denounced, indicted, made to testify before a new and real congressional investigation and exposed for the criminals they are.

The FISA report is just the tip of the iceberg.  Let’s not forget to indict Loretta Lynch, Huma Abedin, John Podesta…the list is so long.

The Deep Hate of the Deep State

The leakers are pressing the send button to overthrow the will of the American people.

By Taylor Foland

The deep state has deep hate towards Trump. The deep state has been trying to take down President Trump from the very beginning. Former Ambassador to the United Nations: Samantha Power had unprecedented POWER, in the waning days of the Obama administration when she requested hundreds of names to “unmask”. Ben Rhodes, former National Security Advisor to former President Obama has also been reported to be a person of interest, in the House Intelligence Committee regarding unmasking.

Disgraced ex-FBI Director Jim Comey is allegedly writing his memoir and cashing-out on his time in the swamp. Comey admitted to leaking classified intelligence to a colleague, and no one in Congress investigates that? No one investigates Susan Rice unmasking hundreds of names either?

Just recently, the Washington Post released full transcripts of President Trump’s phone conversations with the Prime Minister of Australia, Malcolm Turnbull, and Mexico’s President Enrique Peña Nieto. Should people be taking this seriously?

The answer is absolutely, yes. These leaks make the international communication between President Trump and other world leaders extremely risky. The point is to make it impossible for Trump to govern, and it’s absolutely unacceptable.

Leaks of classified intelligence are illegal, as defined by the Espionage Act of 1917. There is a difference between leaks of classified intelligence and leaks of lesser things, like a reception dinner, or names that have been talked about for different positions within the White House. We are talking about knowingly, leaking classified intelligence to embarrass the President, abolish his agenda, and to damage this White House and its ability to conduct the nation’s affairs.

Obama-hold-overs are also a very big problem, with many of Trump’s cabinet members not yet approved by the Senate. This is the way Washington D.C. works, slow and inefficient. Democrats are obstructing simple nominees for no apparent reason. The bureaucracy of the swamp has grown exponentially, especially under the last administration (when the EPA deemed a puddle as a body of water).

There should be no doubt in anyone’s mind that there is a clearly defined deep state campaign to impeach President Trump, the expansion of the Russia probe is just the beginning.

Not only is the deep state being defined by these leaks, but it is also defined by the Washington establishment, where back-scratching is the name of the game. Robert Mueller and Jim Comey are well known friends. There is a leak-campaign at the highest levels of our government to impeach the democratically-elected forty-fifth president of the United States: Donald J. Trump.

Attorney General Jeff Sessions announced on August fourth that the Department of Justice is ramping up its efforts to try to catch leakers and put them in prison. The Attorney General and Director of National Intelligence (DNI) Dan Coats made it very clear that the leaking will not be tolerated, and leakers who are caught, will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

Attorney General Sessions also identified leakers as “criminals” which is extremely important. Sessions also said to the potential leakers: “don’t do it”. Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats also made it very clear that the leakers who leak classified intelligence, will be hunted down, found, and prosecuted.

It’s about time that this happened. The campaign to crack-down on these criminals feels like it is finally going somewhere, although the Attorney General said that these cases are not easy to prosecute. It will be a difficult challenge ahead for the administration, but moles always come out from their burrows. It’s just a matter of time, and determination.

The leaking is also putting the president’s agenda in jeopardy, what if these transcripts with these world leaders were different in their classification, such as movement on North Korea or Iran? It is damaging to national security when you have these leakers spreading classified intelligence to the press for the whole world to know. It makes you wonder, what else could they leak? If they can leak private phone calls, what else can they do?

Meanwhile, the people who are really being short-changed by these illegal acts are the people who voted for the president. The goal of these leakers is to make it impossible for the Trump administration to even function. The main objective is to remove the President from office.

Many Democrats have been disturbed by the leaks, and have denounced them, except for one member of the House of Representatives (specifically), Maxine Waters, a Democrat. On “The View”, Maxine Waters encouraged the leaks, and praised the leakers. How does someone so stupid end up in Congress?

Washington D.C. is trying to take the power away from the voters who elected President Trump. The armies of lawyers that have been hired by Mueller is staggering. The bureaucrats believe they hold the power, they will soon be reminded that the power rests in the hands of the voter. D.C. thinks that Trump supporters are just going to forget about the Russia story and all the obstruction. They think we will just forget about everything that has happened up to where we are now.

WRONG! We vote.

The leaking campaign must stop, before something crucial is leaked out of the White House that is irreversible. The press is attacking Trump, and there are no signs of it stopping. The deep state is attacking him, the Democrats continue to attack him, and now members of the Republican Party are not defending him.

Leakers are playing games in the White House, and think that they are above the law. This lawlessness is endangering the Constitution, and the foundation our nation was built on.

When professional bureaucrats think they can take the law into their own hands, it is a situation that if not stopped, will lead to a Constitutional crisis. If these leaks are not stopped, our Constitution will be subverted, and its principles will be broken. The worst thing about this scenario (should it happen) is that we won’t even know who is destroying our country.

This is the definition of the deep state, they hide behind their security clearance, and continue to leak like a faucet.

The time has come to fire these rats, who are obviously there for themselves and their own agenda(s). YOU’RE FIRED!

The time has come for the Attorney General to pursue these criminals with every tool, and at every opportunity. It’s game over for the leakers! Lock these criminals up, and throw away the keys.

Report: DNC Hack Was “Inside Job”

FIRST APPEARED IN THE NATION

It is now a year since the Democratic National Committee’s mail system was compromised—a year since events in the spring and early summer of 2016 were identified as remote hacks and, in short order, attributed to Russians acting in behalf of Donald Trump. A great edifice has been erected during this time. President Trump, members of his family, and numerous people around him stand accused of various corruptions and extensive collusion with Russians.

Half a dozen simultaneous investigations proceed into these matters. Last week news broke that Special Counsel Robert Mueller had convened a grand jury, which issued its first subpoenas on August 3. Allegations of treason are common; prominent political figures and many media cultivate a case for impeachment.

The president’s ability to conduct foreign policy, notably but not only with regard to Russia, is now crippled. Forced into a corner and having no choice, Trump just signed legislation imposing severe new sanctions on Russia and European companies working with it on pipeline projects vital to Russia’s energy sector. Striking this close to the core of another nation’s economy is customarily considered an act of war, we must not forget.

In retaliation, Moscow has announced that the United States must cut its embassy staff by roughly two-thirds. All sides agree that relations between the United States and Russia are now as fragile as they were during some of the Cold War’s worst moments. To suggest that military conflict between two nuclear powers inches ever closer can no longer be dismissed as hyperbole.

Trump and the Intelligence Threat

By Saint John Hunt

One of the most important issues that President Trump needs to address is the astronomical financial costs of the U.S. Intelligence Community and the security of the American people. The fact that many of the directors of the 17 branches of intelligence have little or no experience in intelligence is of concern.

The “intelligence community” is a runaway train, an avalanche of over indulgence that runs itself, regardless of who is posturing as its director. This so called “community” is at the very heart of the deep state. 

The spy industry is drowning in data. In this case less is more. What I mean by that is that gathering intelligence is the primary concern of all U.S spy agencies. In times past, most Intel was gathered by case officers and their informants. It was the job of the case officer to determine if information any informant offered was of any value.

Based on the particular operational needs, the case officer would send the best Intel up through his chain of command to be further gleaned and graded. But with the advances in technology, the powers that be decided that it would be better to gather all the information, all of the time, from all available sources in a continuous nonstop feeding frenzy. The weak link in this model is that the ability of any of the spy agencies to analyze the billions of bits of data is a tiny fraction of what it collects. Picture if you will a football field filled from the grass to the tallest seats with documents of every conceivable subject all to be read and reported on by only one single person! You get the picture.

In 2005, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) was created to coordinate the various agencies and their vast collection of information. The ODNI started out with roughly 12 employees but has since expanded to over 1,700. The problem is that the ODNI has no legal or budget authority over the agencies it supervises. Those agencies largely ignore the ODNI yet each year the ODNI is granted more and more money without having to show any sizable results.  It’s not just the ODNI.

Since 9/11 the American taxpayers have shelled out over $500 billion to 17 agencies for the purpose of making this country safe. Is it safe? The U.S. Intelligence budget has two major components: The National Intelligence Program (NIP) and the Military Intelligence Program (MIP).

The NIP encompasses all the non-military intelligence gathering agencies. The MIP includes the agencies under military and Department of Defense in support of military operations. Together the MIP and NIP make up the 17 spy agencies under the “direction” of the ODNI.  Here’s who they are. The following are NIP:

 

1. The Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI). They collect and coordinate Intel sharing among all the other agencies.

2. Central Intelligence Agency. Spying on foreign governments and conducting covert operations including assassination, overthrowing foreign governments and furthering the ideals of democracy.

3. National Security Agency. Stands for “No Such Agency. It focuses on gathering signal and other electronic information. The NSA monitors, collects and processes every single phone call, every text message, and every email, radio broadcast both foreign and domestic. Every day the NSA collects and stores 1.7 billion emails, phone calls and all other types of communication including internet, social media, private corporation, and secret diplomatic government communications. The NSA separates this data into 70 separate databases.

4. Defense Intelligence Agency. This is the Pentagon’s top spy agency and is responsible for collecting and analyzing intel on foreign militaries.

5. The Federal Bureau of Investigation. Its job has law enforcement and intelligence functions including fighting terrorism, cyber attacks and espionage.

6. Department of State- Bureau of Intelligence and Research. Their job is to collect and analyze Intel on global affairs for the secretary of state and other diplomats. Among its objectives are weapons proliferation, human trafficking, and drug smuggling.

7. Department of Homeland Security- Office of Intelligence and Analysis. These guys are the hated airport security guards that make you take off your shoes and belt. They deal with border issues, transportation security and bio defense.

8. Drug Enforcement Administration- Office of National Security Intelligence. They are responsible for monitoring and seizing illegal drugs and the forfeiture of assets.

9. Department of the Treasury- Office of Intelligence and Analysis. They work to stop money laundering of terrorist, drug kingpins, weapons dealers and international criminals.

10. Department of Energy- Office of Intelligence and Counterintelligence. These guys are in charge of providing Intel on foreign nuclear weapons, energy security, science and technology, and nuclear energy, safety and waste.

11. National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency. The NGIA provides analysis and Intel about earth’s natural and manmade features for combat, humanitarian and disaster relief purposes. They operate the reference for the GPS system. They watch us from space.

12. National Reconnaissance Office. The NRO designs, builds and operates our nation’s satellites providing real time imagery, navigation and early warning of missile launches. They also watch from space. The following are MIP.

13. Air Force Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance. The Air Force’s intelligence branch uses airplanes, drones and satellites to identify hideouts, bunkers, mobile launchers and weapons caches. It is also responsible for code-breaking activities within the Air Force. All that surveillance takes up a lot of digital space – in 2013, alone received 20 terabytes of data daily, processed 460,000 hours of video and disseminated 2.6 million images.

14. Army Military Intelligence. The Army’s intelligence branch intercepts electronic communications and provides maps, ground imagery and information on foreign forces to assist fighters in the battlefield.

15. Office of Naval Intelligence. The Navy’s intelligence branch keeps tabs on foreign scientific and technological research, analyzes the structure, tactics and readiness of foreign naval forces, and tracks merchant shipping to identify illicit activity.

16. Marine Corps Intelligence. The Marine Corps’ intelligence officers create military maps, intercept and translate radio and electronic signals, analyze images collected from sensors and carry out counterintelligence.

17. Coast Guard Intelligence. The Coast Guard, part of the military and the Department of Homeland Security, protects and defends more than 100,000 miles of coastline and inland waterways. On an average day, the Coast Guard conducts 45 search-and-rescue cases, seizes 874 pounds of cocaine, interdicts 17 migrants and helps move $8.7 billion worth of goods.

That’s a hell of a lot of analysis and intelligence. So why is it that all of those forces and $70 billion can’t keep us informed and ahead of what’s happening in the world until after it happens? How was Russia able to invade the Ukraine or annex Crimea? How did our spy agencies fail to intercept the Boston Marathon Bomber even though his name was on several databases? How did we miss the rise of ISIS and the collapse of the Iraqi army?

The inability of U.S. intelligence agencies to gather and analyze meaningful intelligence is hampered by the billions of unimportant data obscuring the essential and crucial information. There is a darker purpose for this massive surveillance on Americans.

The Intelligence Community is not there just to protect us, but to control us. The hidden agenda of all this massive spying serves the elite powers in their quest for total domination. That’s the only reason why nothing is ever done to limit the scope of these illegal activities. Why doesn’t Congress or the Senate act to protect us? Why do they keep granting these astronomical sums of our money to agencies that show little evidence of positive results?

President Trump needs to act quickly to deflate the bloated, ineffective bodies under the ONDI. He has the power. This is a dangerous mission for Trump. 

The Intelligence Community is staffed with supporters of the deep state. They won’t go down quietly. He needs to form an Open Source Intelligence Agency.  He needs to cut the CIA and DIA by 50%, the NSA, NRO, and NGA by 70 % and put an end to the NSA’s massive citizen’s surveillance programs which do nothing. He needs to stop the CIA and the rest from forcing U.S. policy down the throats of foreign governments that don’t want to be subservient to American capitalist interests. Maybe the world wouldn’t hate us as much.

Think of how much money we as a nation could save. Think of how much respect we might gain. The spy agencies are a one world order for repression and control. Everything we do is being watched and monitored, sorted and cataloged.

Privacy is dead.

President Trump has endured a massive and continuing character assassination campaign. This is part of the globalist program to defeat freedom and bring on a total police state. This is the first of several articles on the Intelligence Community threat.

Pardon the Bundy Family and their Supporters

The accumulation of all powers legislative, executive, and judiciary in the same hands, whether of one, a few or many, and whether hereditary, self-appointed, or elective, may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny.
– James Madison (Federalist Paper 47)

On January 20th, 2017, when President Donald J. Trump was inaugurated as the 45th President of the United States, newly sworn-in President Trump gave a stirring and passionate speech about the new day that was coming to the USA now that power would be transferred from Washington, D.C. back to the American People. He said:

“For too long, a small group in our nation’s Capital has reaped the rewards of government while the people have borne the cost. Washington flourished — but the people did not share in its wealth. Politicians prospered — but the jobs left, and the factories closed.
The establishment protected itself, but not the citizens of our country. Their victories have not been your victories; their triumphs have not been your triumphs; and while they celebrated in our nation’s capital, there was little to celebrate for struggling families all across our land.”
President Donald Trump Inauguration Speech 2017

No more well-defined example of the injustices wrought by the hands of an out-of-control Federal Government can be found than the case of the Bundy Family from the State of Nevada, whose multiple family members rot in a Federal Prison on this very day.

Our Founding Fathers said that Federal Government was to be limited in power regarding to land use within states, and that states themselves should have the say over how the land was used. This is made crystal clear in the Federalist Papers.
Over time, as if in slow motion, our enumerated Constitutional rights have been eroded, to the point of being unrecognizable today.

The result has become a bloated and power-mad Federal Government that is hell bent on achieving full spectrum control over every facet of American’s lives. Militarized Federal Agencies are destroying livelihoods and children’s futures. When the people gather to redress grievances, Federal mercenaries are called in and threaten to shoot-to-kill.

We have allowed our public servants to become Rule Protected Predators, willing to kill and destroy families to maintain their iron grip of power and profit.

Here we have the BLM, the EPA, and the FBI threatening death, stealing land by fiat, and slaughtering livestock while laughing about it. We have allowed our public servants to become modern-day robbers.

In the case of the Bundy Family, there were merely the last ones standing. All of the other ranchers that had developed the area around Bunkerville, NV over the past 150 years had been driven off by the same strong-arm tactics that the Bundy’s resisted.

The Center for Biological Diversity had the audacity to offer to buy the grazing rights of their family for next to nothing. This, after years of using the Bureau of Land Management and the Environmental Protection Agency as a club to bludgeon not only the Bundy’s, but all the other families in the area as well.

Was it for some desert tortoise that these multi-generational rangers driven off their land, as the EPA and CBD claim? Perhaps it was the fact that a certain Nevada senator had almost one hundred acres of land adjacent to the Bundy family? Maybe that this same senator wanted to use that land as part of a 9,000-acre Federal Government subsidized solar farm, put together by his son, in concert with Chinese energy giant, ENN Energy Group?

The fact that the Bundy family would not leave their ancestral land helped cause the Reid-Chinese solar deal to fall apart, which incensed Senator “Pinky” Reid, who then determined to use the full might and force of Federal Law Enforcement to bring terror down upon the Bundy Family’s heads.

Power has run amok and the people are being abused. Their land has been stolen, they have been physically trampled, and in the case of Lavoy Finicum, we find that people are even that they are being murdered in what every appearance shows to be cold blood.

The Department of Justice has looked away at all this abuse of power. Their job, paid for by American Taxpayers, was to protect the people from exactly this, but they have allowed federalism to be destroyed in a multidecade effort to centralize power at all costs. Attorney General Jeff Sessions, rather than look more deeply into the causes that erupted into the standoff, instead congratulated the prosecution on their fine work. This dashed the hopes of patriots everywhere, hoping for real justice.

The wildlife refuge standoff could have been prevented if the FBI had not intervened in the republic form of government where the people petition their representatives with grievances to be addressed. The armed standoff, of which the first member was sentenced to 68 years in prison, was instigated by the State and Federal Governments refusal to listen to legitimate grievances brought to them but the Bundy Family and many others. The Feds resorted to threats of lethal force first, making the excuses for action by criminalizing activities that the family had engaged in for almost one hundred years. With the courts stacked full of cronies to the very same usurpers of State Power, the Bundy Family received no justice and have continually been prevented from making their case.

In the latest insult, just before sentencing Bundy supporter Gregory Burleson to 68 years in prison for his role in the armed confrontation what saw the Feds back down, in 2014. U.S. District Judge Gloria Navarro, placed into power by then President Barack H. Obama at the insistence of Senator Harry Reid, refused to allow Burleson’s attorneys to argue that they were exercising their constitutional rights to peaceably assemble and bear arms.

The defense was not allowed to highlight the actions of BLM agents in the days leading up to the incident or mention federal gaffes such as the ill-advised “First Amendment” zone created for protesters. Judge Navarro also ruled allowing the prosecutors to introduce testimony about the four accused men and their associations with so-called militia groups. Many legal analysts point out that Judge Navarro went to extraordinary lengths to prevent any possible jury nullification, which would have seen the defendants walk free because of the jury’s refusal to convict due unjust application of the law.

As JFK said those who make peaceful revolution impossible make violent revolution inevitable.

As we reflect on the immortal words of JFK, we should also pay heed to the Bundy’s, who call on us not to hate those who are persecuting them, but rather we to pray for them and strive by action to help them see the light and error of their ways.

You can be sure that this is not an isolated case. The EPA has been using the land forfeiture laws to harass and steal land, often to hand it over to an entrenched political crony. Bit by bit they are destroying the American Way of Life, by forcing dependence upon the Federal Government. In Oregon, where the wildlife refuge standoff occurred, the people supported the Hammond Family. They watched as the government destroyed Harney County.

While the men of the Bundy family languish in prison, Federal Agencies have not given up trying to take everything generations of Bundy members have scratched out of the earth for themselves. The women of the Bundy clan are pretty much on their own.

People need to live in liberty. Land and resources must not be centralized or nationalized. Our sustenance is at risk if the heads of the federal agencies achieve their objective of total control of the Earth so they alone decide the fate of men based on their personal desires for profit or power.

Life Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness IS about freedom from exactly the kind of oppression that the Bundy family has been subjected too, and President Trump should remember his Inaugural Address words:

“What truly matters is not which party controls our government, but whether our government is controlled by the people. January 20th 2017, will be remembered as the day the people became the rulers of this nation again. The forgotten men and women of our country will be forgotten no longer.”

President Donald Trump Inauguration Speech 2017

We have before us a case where the government power was abused, not controlled by the people, but by the few for their own gain. Lives have been destroyed and only President Trump has the authority to make things right. By signing this petition, we implore President Trump to show compassion and wisdom, and offer clemency to the Bundy men and their supporters.

Cliven and Ammon Bundy and their supporters stood up for their God given rights and the rights of their neighbors. They stood up for Dwight and Steven Hammond, and now we must stand up for all of them.
