Involuntary Treason is Still Treason Under the Law - Part 1

by

       M. Richard Maxson

      The greatest scandal in American history is unfolding, or not, before our eyes. The so-called impeachment is the latest smoke screen by a desperate coalition of party loyalists and anti-constitutionals to fundamentally change America. The Russian connection, that they paid for, has turned out to be what is was – false and they are losing control of the narrative as the Justice Department’s criminal investigation into the previous administration continues. They appear solemnly in front of cameras daily as their “secret investigation” leaks continuously from one direction. The American Constitutionalist will continue to print the facts – the truth, as difficult as it can be to differentiate from the smoke, mirrors, and outright lies being fed to the American people on a daily basis. Let’s get to it.

      Whether voluntary or involuntary the Espionage Act does not differentiate. It states, "Whoever...having lawful possession or control of any… document relating to national defense…(1) through gross negligence permits the same to be removed from it’s proper place of custody… shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years or both."

The Timeline

• 2008 – Soon after the election an illegal off-site server used for clintonemail.com is registered under the name Eric Hoteham. This is presumably a misspelling of Eric Hothem, the name of a former Clinton aide.

• January 13, 2009 -- The domain clintonemail.com is registered in the name of longtime adviser to former President Bill Clinton, Justin Cooper. Hillary Clinton's email is set up as hdr22@clintonemail.com

     

     Government employees are allowed to use private emails for government work. However, this practice is strongly discouraged. If using a private email, "the agency must ensure that federal records sent or received on such systems are preserved in the appropriate agency record-keeping system." The National Archives and Records Administration states that personal email can only be used in "emergency situations" and that emails from personal accounts should be captured and managed (stored, preserved, and protected) in accordance with agency record-keeping practices. The State Department requests that all former secretaries of state "submit any records in their possession for proper preservation."

• November 2012 -- Clinton's private email server was redesigned to use Google as the backup server.

• December 13, 2012 -- Congressional investigators ask Clinton if she uses a personal email as information has surfaced that a Romanian hacker called "Guccifer" had possession of emails from this account. Clinton changes her email address.

• July 2013 – Suspecting multiple hacks Clinton's email server is changed once again.

• March 3, 2015 – With reports of another hack and classified information being leaked, State Department spokeswoman Maria Harf says: "[There's] no indication that Secretary Clinton used her personal email account for anything but unclassified purposes ... While Secretary Clinton did not have a classified email system, she did have multiple other ways of communicating in a classified manner, including assistants printing documents for her, secure phone calls and secure video conferences."

• March 4, 2015 -- The House committee investigating the 2012 attack on the US Consulate in Benghazi, Libya, issues a subpoena for Clinton's Libya-related emails. After 48 hours of silence, Clinton tweets: "I asked State to release them. They said they will review them for release as soon as possible."

• March 5, 2015 -- It is revealed that Clinton isn't publicly registered as the owner of the domain and server used to operate her personal email. This makes it more difficult to trace the account back to her. Accounts were registered in her aides' names, and she used a proxy company to shield her involvement.

• March 6, 2015 -- The State Department begins reviewing emails to determine what can be publicly released, not whether Clinton violated the law. (Espionage Act) Refusing to co-operate with the Congressional investigation, Clinton wouldn't disclose how her emails were encrypted. Her reasoning was, "given what people with ill intentions can do with such information in this day and age, there are concerns about broadcasting specific technical details about past and current practices."

• March 27, 2015 -- Rep. Trey Gowdy makes the statement, "Secretary Clinton unilaterally decided to wipe her server clean and permanently delete all emails from her personal server," during a Congressional investigation. This is a possible violation of the law. Clinton's lawyer responds in a letter that she "has maintained and preserved copies" of work-related or potentially work-related emails that were turned over to the State Department late in 2014. The lawyer, David Kendall, also stated that federal law governing record retention requires that each federal employee individually decide what emails must be preserved.

• March 31, 2015 -- It is revealed that Clinton used both an iPad and a Blackberry for email, contradicting the statement she made on March 10 about not wanting to carry multiple devices.

• April 15, 2015 -- It is discovered that Clinton ignored questions from Congress in 2012 about her email.

• May 21, 2015 -- The government's chief records officer says more than 1,200 of the emails Clinton gave them were deemed to be personal and not part of the federal record, but in March, Clinton stated that these emails no longer existed as they were wiped.

• July 7, 2015 -- CNN's Brianna Keilar has an exclusive interview with Clinton. In response to being asked about deleting 33,000 emails while under investigation by a House panel, Clinton says other secretaries of state had done the same thing. Clinton also says she was never subpoenaed by the House.

• July 24, 2015 -- The inspector general for the intelligence community informs members of Congress that some materials from Clinton's emails contain classified information.

• July 26, 2015 -- Clinton says she did not send classified emails from her private server while she was secretary of state. "I am confident that I never sent nor received any information that was classified at the time it was sent and received," Clinton tells reporters in Winterset, Iowa.

• July 31, 2015 -- The State Department releases another batch of emails. This batch has been heavily redacted with sensitive information that needed to be kept from the public. This was NOT what she had been saying so on August 11, 2015 -- Clinton agrees to turn over her private email server and a thumb-drive backup to authorities and the intelligence community inspector general confirms that at least five emails have contained classified information.

• August 12, 2015 -- One of Clinton's lawyers confirms that the private server used to contain Clinton's emails from 2009-13 was turned over to the Justice Department. The server was previously wiped of data, but FBI officials are confident that the data from it will be able to be recovered. Law enforcement officials suspect that the examination will take months as BleachBit was used to erase data.

• August 17, 2015 -- Intelligence officials reviewing emails from the server have recommended that 305 documents be sent to other agencies for consultation. Clinton tells reporters, “I just said, over 1,200 of those emails have been deemed not work-related. Under the law, that decision is made by the official. I was the official. I made those decisions."

• August 26, 2015 -- At an event in Iowa, Clinton says, "My use of personal email was allowed by the State Department. It clearly wasn't the best choice. I should have used two emails -- one personal, one for work -- and I take responsibility for that decision." She also adds: "Well, I know people have raised questions about my email use as secretary of state, and I understand why. I get it." This is a change from her previous responses to questions about her email use.

• September 8, 2015 -- Hillary Clinton releases an apology and statement on her Facebook page about the email scandal: "I wanted you to hear this directly from me. Yes, I should have used two email addresses, one for personal matters and one for my work at the State Department. Not doing so was a mistake. I'm sorry about it, and I take full responsibility …"

• September 30, 2015 -- The State Department releases the latest batch of Clinton's emails. This batch contains 3,849 documents from mostly 2010 and 2011. There are 215 more documents in addition to a previous batch of 125 that have been retroactively upgraded to "classified" and were not made publicly available. That made 340 emails with classified information in them that were not categorized as such by the Clinton’s State Department. The new emails also show that there was worry about the use of private email inviting hackers.

• November 30, 2015 -- The latest and largest batch of Clinton's emails is released. This release contains more than 5,000 emails, and approximately 328 of those were retroactively classified which brought the total to 668. Also included with the emails is a chain at the center of Republican criticism of Clinton's handling of the 2012 attack on the US Consulate in Benghazi, Libya.

2016

• January 7, 2016 -- Having not met its goal for the month of December, the State Department releases another batch of Clinton emails. The next group of emails to be released at the end of January is expected to be the last.

• January 14, 2016 -- In a letter to congressional intelligence committees, Intelligence Community Inspector General I. Charles McCullough III writes that emails on Clinton's private server have been flagged for classified information, some of which is considered the highest "top secret" level of classification.

• January 20, 2016 -- During a segment on National Public Radio, Clinton says the letter from the inspector general was nothing more than a ruse to damage her campaign for the presidency. Clinton's spokesman, Brian Fallon, also tells Bloomberg that they believed McCullough and Republican senators were working together to make the letter public.

• January 22, 2016 -- Due to inclement weather, the State Department asks for a one-month extension to release Clinton's remaining emails. January 29 is the original deadline set by the courts for releasing all of the emails on Clinton's private server.

• January 29, 2016 -- The State Department releases the second-to-last batch of emails from Clinton's private server. The State Department also announces that 22 emails would not be released due to their containing "top secret" information.

• February 4, 2016 -- During a State Department review of the past five secretaries' of state emailing practices, it is revealed that former secretaries of state Colin Powell and Condoleezza Rice had received emails containing classified information through personal email accounts. The State Department found that Powell received two emails that are now deemed classified and that Rice and her staff received 10 emails. Minor mistakes in classification but nothing like the volume under Secretary of State Clinton.

• February 13, 2016 -- The State Department releases 551 of Hillary Clinton's emails. Of those, 84 emails were redacted and deemed classified bringing the total to 752.

• February 19, 2016 -- A batch of 562 emails are released ahead of the Nevada caucuses. Of those, 64 emails were upgraded to "confidential" and heavily redacted.

• February 23, 2016 -- U.S. District Judge Emmet Sullivan considers ordering subpoenas of Clinton and aide Huma Abedin, but he ultimately decides to wait and rule in favor of discovery.

• February 26, 2016 -- The State Department releases 881 emails, approximately 1,500 pages, of the remaining emails. As of this release, 1,840 emails have been retroactively upgraded to classified.

• February 29, 2016 -- The State Department releases the final batch of Clinton's emails. In total, more than 52,000 pages of emails have been reviewed with 2,101 being retroactively classified and 22 being upgraded to top secret. One of the final unclassified emails is being withheld from the public at the request of law enforcement.

      This is the greatest scandal in our country’s history and every true American should be outraged and also frightened in the way it is being swept away and the truth hidden by powerful forces within and without of our nation. In these next few months the future of the United States hangs in the balance. Will we survive whole? Will we break apart or will the Founders vision be extinguished for an attempt at a Socialist utopia which we know will fail? The Timeline continues with our next installment.

Treason - Stopping an Investigation by Use of Impeachment

by

       M. Richard Maxson

      Are we witnessing the end of America as we have known it? Will our country break apart into separate entities on one side by Constitutional originalists and on the other by those who believe that the constitution changes with societal norms of the day over-riding rule of law? Will we become a Socialist country, this condition unrecognized by it’s citizens as it will be wrapped up in red, white, and blue? A Trojan horse appearing to be a democracy yet Communist at it’s core? Let us begin just to touch on some key points.

                                                           

                                                 TREASON

"Whoever...having lawful possession or control of any… document relating to national defense…(1) through gross negligence permits the same to be removed from it’s proper place of custody…or (2) having knowledge that the same has been illegally removed from it’s proper place of custody... and fails to make prompt report of such loss….shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years or both."

                                                           THE UNDISPUTED FACTS

• Hillary Clinton set up an unauthorized computer server outside of the government.

• Mail containing sensitive classified information was transmitted through this server.

• The server was hacked by foreign governments and individuals then publicized and an “investigation” occurred which concluded, “Although we did not find clear evidence that Secretary Clinton or her colleagues intended to violate laws governing the handling of classified information, there is evidence that they were extremely careless in their handling of very sensitive, highly classified information.”

"Whoever...having lawful possession or control of any… document relating to national defense…(1) through gross negligence permits the same to be removed from it’s proper place of custody."

• Mr. Obama knew (as e-mails have verified) that this had and was happening and used his office to cover up and downplay the seriousness of it.

"...or (2) having knowledge that the same has been illegally removed from it’s proper place of custody... and fails to make prompt report of such loss….shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years or both."

 

                                                         THE COVER-UP

• Secretary of State Clinton’s associates were ordered to smash cell phones and wipe hard drives with BleachBit to obliterate evidence which included election interference, attempting and paying to get dirt on her Republican opponent, with the help of foreign entities. 

• Bill Clinton’s secret tarmac meeting with then Attorney General Loretta Lynch just days before Hillary Clinton was to be interviewed by the FBI about her mishandling of classified emails. As pressure was mounting about the premature ending of the FBI’s e-mail investigation. Comey claimed it wasn’t intentional but the law states “gross negligence” IS the criteria.

      The administration was confident that the election was in the bag and the situation could be lost in time after the inauguration of President Hillary Clinton. Then, the seemingly impossible happened – Donald Trump won the election. Panic ensued as the possibility that top officials in their administration, could be arrested and charged with espionage!

                                                                   DAMAGE CONTROL

      The morning after the election results were in the attacks on President-elect Trump began. Many players were involved to certain degrees in this crime and there was much to lose. Pre-inaugural assassination was briefly on the table as it was deemed that serious but this was quickly dismissed as too radical at this time. The players came to the conclusion that Mr. Trump’s personal history and temperament, with the help of the pro-Obama media would wear on the American people and of course there was the Russia investigation which surly would end his presidency. In addition, they still had co-operation of the FBI and the Justice Department.

      The Russia investigation went on for over two years and the conclusion could be spun but not lied about. It was a dead end from the beginning because it was not true. The story had been spun and twisted to cover-up more damning information, that the Clinton campaign and the Democratic party have been trying to dig up dirt on President Trump in Ukraine, Italy, and around the world before, during, and after the election to stop any further inquiry.

      Recently the smoke and mirrors have been put into overdrive. The Russian collusion story is out and impeachment is in. It is not a normal impeachment. It is being done in private in an extraordinary, one-sided, biased exhibition. The race is on to stop the new Attorney General and Justice Department from finding the truth. Getting President Trump out is the only way to replace these officials and stop the investigation. It is even more imperative that it happen as the Justice department has now stated that their inquiry is now a criminal investigation! This may well be the largest political scandal the county’s history and the future of America depends on it. The race for the truth is on Patriots. Will America win?

Unconstitutional Secrecy Essential for Democrats to Keep the Cover-up Going.

by

       M. Richard Maxson

      The Democratic party continues into their third straight year of attempting to drive President Trump from office by employing unconstitutional means. By deliberately ignoring fundamental principles of fairness it constitutes a full-frontal assault on the procedural protections inherent in the “due process” clause of the Constitution.

       Operating in the shadows of secrecy, the democratic leadership have commandeered impeachment power by anointing themselves as the sole determinants. First it was Judiciary Chairman Jerrold Nadler who claimed he was presiding over a “formal impeachment proceeding.” Now, Adam Schiff, House Intelligence Chairman and front-man against the President for the past three years says the same. What is going on here? No one can say and if they try, they will face the consequences.

      In our Republic, the principles of transparency and accountability demand that the actions and decisions of elected officials be open to public scrutiny. No one knows what’s going on behind those closed doors. Citizens have a right to know what their government is doing. Secrecy corrupts the process and delegitimizes the so-called results. Yet they continue and the select few who are present or have access to information have been threatened with eviction or an ethics investigation should they disclose to anyone what is happening.

ALSO:

• Witnesses have been threatened with obstruction of justice if they refuse to appear in these secret proceedings.

• Witnesses been told that legal counsel is not allowed.

• Democrats selectively leak damaging information, Republicans are prohibited from rebutting it.

• Republicans are deprived of subpoena power and forbidden from calling witnesses of its own. This is an abuse of the process and an egregious deprivation of rights.

       Now we are finding out that the Democratic leadership is not only investigating the complaint – they are writing it!!! Adam Schiff played a pivotal role in orchestrating the initial whistle-blower complaint that led to the impeachment hysteria and then lied about it. Suddenly, he doesn’t want this anonymous informant to testify!! Is there a fear that under oath, for the whole country to see, that it would implicate Schiff and reveal this farce? The minority party has demanded his resignation. A resolution H.R. 604 has been put up condemning Schiff for retelling a fabricated conversation between President Trump and Ukraine Premere Zelenskiy. That is known as LYING.

      Federal judges, including the justices on the high court, care deeply about precedent. They also respect and uphold basic rights guaranteed in our Constitution. Decisions by the U.S. Supreme Court in Watkins v. United States (1957) and Quinn v. United States (1955) in which the Justices ruled that the Bill of Rights and “due process” guarantees apply to congressional investigations. They have also been recognized as a requirement in impeachment proceedings.

      The present impeachment inquiry bears no resemblance to the procedural guarantees of “due process” found in the Fifth Amendment and enunciated more specifically in Supreme Court decisions throughout the years. “Due process” rights exist in our Republican form of democracy and are enshrined in our own Constitution which is being trampled on with impunity by the Democrats in the House.

      How can this be allowed to happen and why? The largest scandal in American history is being hidden from our citizens. The attack on President-elect Trump began immediately the day after the election to prevent the truth of the massive cover-up of fraud and treason involving the previous administration. It is not a coincidence that convenient suicides of important figures and/or possible witnesses have increased dramatically over the past three years. It is a situation so serious, that if made known as fact, it could cause national chaos and bring down the entire government of the United States!!!

Is This How To End the War in the Mid-East Permanently?

by

       Phillip Todd

      This past week the President pulled our troops, all twenty-eight of them, out of Syria. A move long overdue. These were the remnants of the US force that was working with and supplying Al-Qaeda and other terrorist groups used as proxies against Russia. It was another Deep State operation against Syria using the guise of defeating ISIS as it’s justification. The President, knowing Turkey was about to invade the area, pulled our troops out of harms way to avoid possible US casualties. The reaction by politicians who have been bought and paid for by the ‘war for profit” complex was exactly as expected – outrage.

      The middle-east has been a battleground for control of the resources for over one hundred years. The powers that be in different factions fight each other for this control with no clear cut winner. This area of the world has been identified as the probable beginnings of a WW III. There seems to be nothing from the Western powers except to continue with the status quo – until recently. Russia has come up with a plan that makes so much sense it can’t possibly be accepted. The selfish interests of the world’s elite means that it will, in all likelihood, be ignored. Here are a few of their points in the proposal.

      "Over decades, tension in the Gulf area has persisted. This negatively impacts security, political and economic stability in the region and in the world. New hotbeds of tension are being added to the existing ones. A major center of the transnational terrorist network has sprung up near the Gulf area."

 

     "Under the current circumstances, active and efficient steps at the international and regional levels are needed to normalize and further improve the situation in the Gulf area, overcome the protracted crisis phase and turn this sub-region towards peace, good-neighborliness, and sustainable development."

   "Russia believes that the idea of establishing a security system in the Gulf area might be essential for consolidating political and diplomatic efforts in this region. It implies a long-term program of action aimed at normalizing the situation, improving stability and security, resolving conflicts. Extremely alarming trends are taking shape in the Persian Gulf, a strategically important region for the entire world. These include the sharp aggravation of disputes between individual countries, their unwillingness to accommodate each other’s interests and concerns and, as a result, a significant increase in conflict potential. It must be acknowledged that there is real threat of further escalation that may lead to large-scale hostilities."

     "We believe such an outcome to be unacceptable. And so, we see the need for collective efforts to find consensus-based compromise solutions designed to reduce tensions and resolve all existing acute crises by political and diplomatic means based on international law."

Russia's concept of ensuring security in the Gulf area is based on the following principles: 

 

– Consolidating, in a single counter-terrorism coalition, all stakeholders interested in eliminating the hotbed of extremism and terrorism in the Middle East and ensuring sustainable political settlement in Syria, Yemen, other countries of the region, is a priority. Counter-terrorism activities should be carried out under the UN aegis on the solid basis of international law. This should provide a foundation for the settlement of conflict situations and other disputes. It is exactly this way that the main objectives of eliminating chemical weapons in Syria were achieved.

– There is a need for mobilizing public opinion across Islamic and other countries with a view to jointly countering the threat of terrorism, including through integrated efforts in media space.

– All parties should adhere to international law, to the UN Charter and UN Security Council resolutions in the first place. We all aim for a democratic and prosperous Middle East that would encourage inter-faith peace and coexistence.

– Peace-making operations can only be conducted on the basis of relevant resolutions of the UN Security Council or upon request of the legitimate authorities of the attacked state. Double standards are unacceptable here.

– The security system in the Gulf area should be universal and comprehensive; it should be based on respect for the interests of all regional and other parties involved, in all spheres of security, including its military, economic and energy dimensions. It should take full account of the necessity to provide humanitarian assistance to countries and peoples of the region that are in need, with a view to addressing conflict situations and stabilizing societies.

– Multilateralism is considered to be a mechanism of participation of stakeholders in the joint assessment of the situation, decision-making process and implementation of decisions. Exclusion of any stakeholder for any reason is inadmissible.

– Progress toward the establishment of a security system should be achieved on a step-by-step basis starting with most relevant and urgent problems. This concerns, first and foremost, combat against international terrorism, the settlement of the Iraqi, Yemeni and Syrian crises, and the implementation of all agreements reached on the Iranian nuclear program.

– This step-by-step approach is also applicable to the adoption by the Gulf states and international community of confidence-building measures and provision of mutual security guarantees in the region.

– Taking into account the close interrelation of regional problems, the establishment of a security system in the Gulf area is considered as part of the solution aimed at ensuring security in the Middle East as a whole. In this context, the principles of respect for sovereignty and territorial integrity, settlement of issues of domestic politics through national dialogue, within the constitutional framework and without external interference, are crucial.

      With regard to the situation in the Gulf area, states within the region and extra-regional stakeholders shall:

– reaffirm the whole set of their international legal commitments: in particular, the non-use or threat of force in dispute settlement, respect for sovereignty and territorial integrity of states of the subregion, commitment to the settlement of territorial and border disputes solely through negotiations or by other peaceful means, fulfillment in good faith of their international commitments;

– assume mutual obligations of military transparency (dialogue on military doctrines, defense ministers’ subregional meetings, establishment of hotlines, exchange of preliminary notifications of military exercises and military flights, exchange of observers, renouncement of permanent deployment of troops of extra-regional states in the territories of states of the Gulf, exchange of information concerning arms procurement and armed forces);

– sign agreements on arms control which could include, for example, establishment of demilitarized zones, prohibition of destabilizing accumulation of conventional weapons, including missile defense weapons, balanced reduction of armed forces by all parties;

– given the objectives of strengthening the NPT-based non-proliferation regime in the Middle East, take steps to transform the region into a zone free of weapons of mass destruction;

– conclude agreements on combat against transnational terrorism, illicit trafficking in arms and illegal migration, drug trafficking, and organized crime.

As more progress in building the security system is achieved, the discussion on downsizing the international military presence in the region and developing common confidence-building measures for regional and other states should be initiated.

      "The central long-term objective is the creation of a security and cooperation organization in the Persian Gulf (PGSCO) that would include, in addition to the Gulf countries, Russia, China, the USA, the EU, India and other stakeholders as observers or associated members. Efforts to resolve chronic conflicts, first of all the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, which remains one of the major destabilizing factors in the whole Middle East region enabling extremists to recruit new fighters, should be pursued. In future, in the context of the Arab-Israeli settlement, the PGSCO could become an element of the regional security system for the Middle East and North Africa."

      "Russia’s proposals are in no way final and represent a kind of invitation to start a constructive dialogue on ways to achieve long-term stabilization in the Gulf region. We are ready to work closely with all stakeholders both in official settings and in sociopolitical and expert circles. to ensuring durable security in the Gulf."

      These are a few, fair to all sides, ideas from Russia that make too much sense to be implemented. The ‘war for profit” crowd see there is no profit in peace and stability. That is why this report, worked up for years and written months ago, has and will be ignored!

The Largest Political Slush Fund in History

by

       George Sontag

      The Clinton Foundation is/was to this point in time the largest political slush fund in history. Shrouded in secrecy and hidden/protected by the world’s Leftist elite it has been instrumental in shaping much of our nation’s current situation. It’s illegal activities have been covered up by the these elite and ignored by their media as to further THEIR agenda of worldwide Socialism. Everyone should take the time to read this slowly and patiently because it’s very important.

      From 2001 to 2005 there was an ongoing

investigation into the Clinton Foundation. A Grand Jury had been impaneled when it was found out that governments from around the world had donated to the “Charity”. Yet, from 2001 to 2003 none of those “Donations” to the Clinton Foundation were declared. The facts were clear and any honest investigator would be able to see that things were not as they were presented. Illegal donations and tax evasion was evident.

      A series of events then transpired that should be abhorrent to every American. Suddenly, in 2005, none other than James Comey took over this investigation. Coincidence? Guess who was transferred into the Internal Revenue Service to run the Tax Exemption Branch of the IRS? None other than, Lois Lerner. Isn’t that interesting?

This is all just a series of strange coincidences, right? Guess who ran the Tax Division inside the Department of Justice from 2001 to 2005? None other than the Assistant Attorney General of the United States, Rod Rosenstein!

      Robert Mueller was the Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation during this time frame? Just another coincidence? What do all these four have in common? They all were briefed and/or were front-line investigators into the Clinton Foundation Investigation. Another coincidence?

      Fast forward to 2009. James Comey leaves the Justice Department to go and cash-in at Lockheed Martin. Hillary Clinton is running the State Department, official government business, on her own personal email server. The Uranium One “issue” comes up. Clinton, supposedly looking out for America’s best interest, decides to support the decision and approve the sale of 20% of US Uranium the Russians. Now, you would think that this is a straight-up deal, however, prior to the sales approval, suddenly Bill Clinton goes to Moscow, gets paid $500,000 for a one-hour speech; then meets with Vladimir Putin at his home for a few hours. Just a coincidence, right? Well, not so fast, the FBI had a mole inside the money laundering and bribery scheme.

      This whistle blower emerged but Robert Mueller was the FBI Director during this time frame. He had another agenda and even personally delivered a Uranium Sample to Moscow in 2009. What happened to the informant? The Department of Justice placed a gag order on him and threatened to lock him up if he spoke out about it.

      How does 20% of the most strategic asset of the United States of America end up in Russian hands when the FBI has an informant, a mole providing inside information to the FBI on the criminal enterprise? Who was handling that case within the Justice Department out of the US Attorney’s Office in Maryland? None other than, Rod Rosenstein. 

 

      Very soon after; the sale was approved. $145 million dollars in “donations” made their way into the Clinton Foundation from entities directly connected to the Uranium One deal. Guess who was still at the Internal Revenue Service working the Charitable Division? None other than, Lois Lerner. Another series of coincidences?

       Let’s fast forward to 2015. Due to a series of tragic events in Benghazi and after the 9 “investigations” the House, Senate and at State Department, Trey Gowdy who was running the 10th investigation as Chairman of the Select Committee on Benghazi discovers that Hillary ran the State Department on an unclassified, unauthorized, outlaw personal email server. He also discovered that none of those emails had been turned over when she departed her “Public Service” as Secretary of State which was required by law. He also discovered that there was Top Secret information contained within her personally archived email. That’s when the State Departments cover-up began. They implemented delay tactics and spewed outright lies from the Kerry State Department. They did everything humanly possible to cover for Hillary and The Foundation. 

 

      It gets worse, guess who became FBI Director in

2013? None other than James Comey, who secured 17 no-bid contracts for his employer (Lockheed Martin) with the State Department and was rewarded with a $6 million dollar payout. Amazing how all those no-bids just went right through at the State Department. He became the FBI Director in charge of the “Clinton Email Investigation” after of course his FBI Investigates the Lois Lerner “Matter” at the Internal Revenue Service and he claimed that they couldn’t find any crimes and exonerates her. 

 

      In April 2016, James Comey drafts an exoneration letter of Hillary Rodham Clinton. They didn’t even convene a Grand Jury! He steps out into the cameras of an awaiting press conference on July 5th of 2016 and exonerates Hillary from any wrongdoing.

      It goes on and on, Rosenstein becomes Assistant Attorney General, Comey gets fired based upon a letter by Rosenstein, Comey leaks government information to the press, Mueller is assigned to the Russian Investigation sham by Rosenstein to provide cover for decades of malfeasance within the FBI and DOJ and the story continues. FISA abuse, political espionage pick a crime, any crime, chances are this group and a few others did it:

      The Clinton Foundation, after a brief downturn following the election of 2016. The gusher of foreign money that kept the foundation afloat suddenly drying up after Hillary Clinton failed to win the presidency. It proves what we've said all along: In its 20+ years of operation of being the largest International Charity Fraud in the history of mankind, has never been audited by the Internal Revenue Service. The Clinton Foundation was little more than an influence-peddling scheme to enrich the Clintons, and had little if anything to do with "charity," either overseas or in the U.S. The Foundation’s downturn was caused by checkbooks being snapped shut in offices around the world by people who had hoped their donations would buy access to the next president of the United States. They are still there, they are still waiting.

A Democrat Gay Man of Jewish Descent Finds Truth

       This is a second in a series of articles written by Americans who, in their own words, reveal their own epiphanys’ about what is REALLY going on in this country. Using their intellect and critical analytical thinking they discuss how they broke through the lies and propaganda which envelopes our citizens minute by minute of every day to find truth.

       It was always a given that Republicans are bad people, representative of that shameful sliver of our flawed society that values money above the planet and think the world would be better off if everyone were a straight, white male. Left to their own devices, they would exclude ethnic minorities from everything, kick sinful gay offspring onto the streets, and pave our parks over with oil derricks.

       Of course, there are the less malicious Republicans, the ones who have fallen victim to their gun-toting, Bible-thumping families and sadly do not know any better than what they have been told. This type is not entirely to blame for their ignorance; they just deserve our pity. Republicans are bad. At a minimum they are racist, misogynistic and homophobic and Trump is nothing less than Satan embodied. These truths are held by my family and our extended social and political networks to be self-evident. Post-election family gatherings devolved into group Trump-bashing.

      When, in my adulthood, the liberal policy agenda became problematic for me, I found myself at a loss. I began to raise questions with my family and friends, and met resistance. My concerns were that the Affordable Care Act has made medical treatment of my bipolar disorder more expensive than ever. As a small business owner, I am regularly assaulted with financially crushing, nonsensical red tape and bureaucracy, much implemented as lip service to environmental protection. With few exceptions, every one of my good friends feels more economically hopeless after the “recovery” than before, and abject homelessness on the streets of my beloved city has swelled to egregious levels. Under the nuclear agreement, Iran flagrantly continues to enrich uranium and fund terrorist activities. It was not because my concerns were particularly inappropriate; I was just not supposed to be questioning at all.

       In desperation, like a closeted teenager sneaking into a porn theater, I surreptitiously began to explore the forbidden territories of Fox News and other conservative outlets. Incredibly, I found myself agreeing more often than not...I did everything in my power to avoid that one last unspeakable, fatal option: turning Republican.

       I reached my threshold where no amount of hypothetical Republican bigotry or greed could approach the magnitude of hypocrisy, corruption, or criminality I saw rotting the Democrats to the core. I jumped ship...I found out almost immediately that the Republican Party is not only not evil, but populated with nice, intelligent, humble people. It took 36 years for me to see through the Democratic mystique of what the Republican Party is. Having done so has enabled me to affirm a deep part of who I am, which runs deeper than religion or sexual orientation, because it is part of what forms me. Sadly, it was a part that I should not ever have had to question in the first place. If the struggles of the LGBT and Jewish peoples have taught me one thing, it is that I count, I matter, no more or less than any other man—precisely not because of my sexual preferences, or the God I worship, but because I am a citizen of planet Earth. The knowledge there is a major political party that extends this creed to its members has restored a deep-seated hope inside of me for my country’s future.

An American Woman of African Descent Finds Truth

       This is a first in a series of articles written by Americans who, in their own words, reveal their own epiphanys’ about what is REALLY going on in this country. Using their intellect and critical analytical thinking they discuss how they broke through the lies and propaganda which envelopes our citizens minute by minute of every day to find truth.

      "My departure from the Democratic Party was part of a gradual process that took more than a decade to solidify. Leaving one’s political party can be as painful as a divorce, especially if you have been there all your life. For me, being a Democrat was as natural as breathing. In fact, I spent almost two-thirds of my adult life in the party into which I had been born. Like others around me, I believed the false narrative that the Republicans were the party of the rich and the Democrats were the party of the working class. My party affiliation was a no-brainer."

      "After attending college and studying politics, history, and law, I became even more persuaded by the rightness and soundness of my allegiance to the Democrats. Intellectually, I knew the histories of the two parties and how the Republican Party had been the party of Abraham Lincoln and how it had fought for anti-lynching laws and integration. However, like many other college educated Americans, I bought into the myth known as the Southern Strategy, whereby the two parties switched places. The Democrats became the party of civil rights and the Republicans the party of racism, a perception I now know to be false."

      "I wasn’t ready to become a Republican, even though I shared most of the values and principles espoused by them. I was too influenced by the news media and the books and articles I had read over the years. So, initially, I stayed with the Democrats and I suffered from cognitive dissonance, the condition of holding views and perspectives different from my actions and behaviors."

      Intellectually I was at war with myself. I saw stark contradictions between my worldview and the Democratic Party’s position on the issues I care about most deeply. Eventually, it became clear to me that I should align myself with the party offering the strongest defense of the constitutional rights, of the unborn, the perpetuation of marriage between a man and a woman, religious liberty and freedom of conscience.

      "The Republican Party’s historical commitment to civil rights, free-market capitalism, limited government, and individual liberty factored into my decision making. I was also moved by the charitable works of conservative Republicans that I saw working with inner-city youth and missions. These people were pouring themselves into the lives of the poor and disenfranchised and picking up where the government left off, when it came to helping refugees and immigrants. It was party and faith in action that prompted admirable actions of a civic nature."

      "I have great concern about the Democratic Party’s vision for America and its unethical alliance with the mainstream media. It’s a partnership that enables leftist politicians to use nonstop attacks and criticisms of President Donald Trump to deceive voters about the president and those of us who have aligned with the Republican Party. High-ranking Democrats have encouraged their constituents to confront and harass Republicans, while the latter go about their daily business. This is dangerous and un-American, and we know it won’t end well."

      "The Democratic Party today isn’t the same as the Democratic Party of my youth and early adulthood. It is a party in decline that has allowed itself to be overrun and taken over by its most radical pro- Communist elements. The new Democrats show a disdain for America and its people. Its leaders are willing to argue against due-process rights, the presumption of innocence, and the rule of law. Democratic Socialism has failed everywhere it’s been tried. Republicans know this. We should run, not just walk away, from the Democratic Party."
