Bombshell: Trove Of Hillary Clinton Emails After President Orders Declassification
- Secretary of State signaled he would release Clinton emails before election
- 'We're going to get all this information out so the American people can see it,' he says
The emails, which can be found on the State Department website, span between 2009 and 2016, during and after Clinton was Secretary of State during former President Obama’s term.
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo had signaled Friday he was preparing to release Clinton’s emails as part of Trump’s declassification orders.
“We’re going to get all this information out so the American people can see it. You’ll remember there was classified information on a private server, should have never been there, Hillary Clinton should never have done that, that was unacceptable behavior,” Pompeo said on Fox Business.

“You can see, whether it’s Russia or China or Iran or the North Koreans who want to get their hands on this kind of information, classified information needs to stay in the right places. Secretary Clinton, when she was here at the State Department, did not do that,” he said.
The release comes after Trump ordered the declassification of all documents related to Hillary Clinton and the Russia hoax. “I have fully authorized the total Declassification of any & all documents pertaining to the single greatest political CRIME in American History, the Russia Hoax.
Likewise, the Hillary Clinton Email Scandal. No redactions!” he tweeted Tuesday.

Likewise, Trump also issued a blistering warning during an interview with Rush Limbaugh on Friday that if Iran tried to undermine America’s safety, they would pay the price.
“Iran knows that and they’ve been put on notice: If you fuck around with us, if you do something bad to us, we are going to do things to you that have never been done before,” Trump said.

DNI Ratcliffe Declassifies Brennan’s Notes Proving Obama Briefed On Hillary Clinton’s ‘Russia Collusion’ Plot Against Trump
- Clinton spokesperson had called shocking allegations "baseless bullsh*t"
- Smoking gun CIA evidence proves Clinton plot known by intelligence agencies and President Obama himself in July 2016
Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe declassified a set of memos revealing more information about Hillary Clinton’s “plan” to create the phony Russian collusion narrative to politically damage Donald Trump as “a means of distracting the public from her use of a private email server.”
Ratcliffe declassified former CIA Director John Brennan’s handwritten notes detailing his briefing of former President Obama about Clinton’s “plan” to tie Trump to Russian interference in the 2016 election.
“We’re getting additional insight into Russian activities from [REDACTED],” Brennan notes read. “CITE [summarizing] alleged approved by Hillary Clinton a proposal from one of her foreign policy advisers to vilify Donald Trump by stirring up a scandal claiming interference by the Russian security service.”
Enclosure 1 Brennan Notes u by Jamie White
Ratcliffe also declassified a heavily-redacted CIA memo showing the agency referred the matter of Clinton’s scheme to frame Trump to the FBI.
“The following information is provided for the exclusive use of your bureau for background investigative action or lead purposes as appropriate,” the memo to then-FBI Director James Comey and Deputy Assistant Director of the Counter Intelligence Division Peter Strzok stated.
“This memorandum contains sensitive information that could be source revealing. It should be handled with particular attention to compartmentation and need-to-know. To avoid the possible compromise of the source, any investigative action taken in response to the information below should be coordinated in advance with Chief Counterintelligence Mission Center, Legal,” the memo, which was sent to Comey and Strzok, read. “It may not be used in any legal proceeding—including FISA applications—without prior approval…”
Enclosure 2 Dcia Memo 09-07... by Jamie White
“Per FBI verbal request, CIA provides the below examples of information the CROSSFIRE HURRICANE fusion cell has gleaned to date,” the memo continued.
“An exchange [REDACTED] discussing US presidential candidate Hillary Clinton’s approval of a plan concerning US presidential candidate Donald Trump and Russian hackers hampering US elections as a means of distracting the public form her use of a private email server.”
These two declassifications are notable because Hillary Clinton’s spokesperson Nick Merrill called the allegations that she plotted to frame Trump with the Russian collusion hoax “baseless bullshit” after Ratcliffe announced he was declassifying items proving the affirmative.
Additionally, James Comey denied ever having received that CIA memo during congressional testimony last week.
“You don’t remember getting an investigatory lead from the intelligence community? Sept. 7, 2016, U.S. intelligence officials forwarded an investigative referral to James Comey and Strzok regarding Clinton’s approval of a plan [about] Trump…as a means of distraction?” Sen. Lindsey Graham asked Comey.
“That doesn’t ring any bells with me,” Comey replied.

“According to his handwritten notes, former Central Intelligence Agency Director Brennan subsequently briefed President Obama and other senior national security officials on the intelligence, including the ‘alleged approval by Hillary Clinton on July 26, 2016 of a proposal from one of her foreign policy advisors to vilify Donald Trump by stirring up a scandal claiming interference by Russian security services,'” Ratcliffe wrote to the Senate Judiciary last week.

The Hybrid War Of Terror On America Was Decades In The Making
A Review Of Recent Events
Subversive forces inside the US are waging a Hybrid War of Terror on America, one that's been decades in the making but finally turned kinetic in the run-up to Trump's prospective re-election. For those readers who aren't familiar with the author's earlier work on this topic, they're requested to read or at least skim through the following articles in order to obtain an understanding of his interpretation of contemporary events that will frame the present analysis about their origins and their prospective development across the course of this year:
* 1 June: "Mayhem In America: Masks Off, Molotovs Out!"
* 2 June: "America Has The Right To Protect Itself From Urban Terrorism"
* 3 June: "What Comes After America's Nationwide Anti-Terrorist Operation?"
* 4 June: "Antifa Wants To Lead African-Americans To Their Slaughter To Spark A Race War"
To
oversimplify, domestic terrorist groups led on the ground primarily by
the largely decentralized Antifa network are doing everything they can
to encourage angry African-Americans to carry out a nationwide crime
wave together with acts of urban terrorism so as to increase the
likelihood of them getting killed en masse by the police, National
Guard, and/or military as the next step in provoking a "race race", the
resultant chaos of which could then be exploited to advance their
ideological agenda of "revolution".
Education Or Indoctrination?
What's happening in America today took decades to get to this point since ordinary Americans wouldn't otherwise react the way that many of them regrettably are unless they were truly enraged at something so intensely to put others' lives and their own in danger through wanton acts of urban terrorism. Their worldview wasn't shaped in a day, but over decades, and that initially began in the educational system which was gradually subverted by left-wing radicals to the point where almost all college professors today identify with this ideology or one of its variants. They indoctrinated several generations of Americans "across the color spectrum" into believing that their country is a "racist dictatorship" profiting off of "economic injustice". There's definitely some truth to the general point that America is imperfect like all countries are, with its own particular systemic challenges that have made life difficult for some categories of folks more so in the past than in the present day, but that truth has been manipulated in order to radicalize the population according to certain triggers that most directly affect each identity demographic (e.g. racism and the criminal justice system for African-Americans, "reverse-racism" for Caucasians, feminism for women, corruption for the vast majority of the people, etc.).
Trotskyist Terror
This observation makes it relevant to discuss the influence of Trotskyist thought, which in this context simply refers to the concept of a so-called "permanent revolution". There's nothing wrong with the idea of continual improvement, but it's been exploited by radical left-wing ideologies in order to promote the Machiavellian mantra that "the ends justify the means". That said end is what its adherents truly believe (whether on their own or due to mental manipulation by "vanguard" elements of "the movement") to be a "better world" for everyone, hence why they think that morality has no place when it comes to means. Thus, even acts of urban terrorism and the tricking of "useful idiots" into being slaughtered are "acceptable". "The movement" does everything in its power to ensure that "the cause" is always on everyone's minds so that nobody ever forgets about it but is instead always incited into becoming ever more radicalized so that their anger can then be "constructively" (or rather, destructively) channeled in the direction of their greater goal. Saul Alinsky's "Rules For Radicals", which he dedicated to "the first radical" Lucifer (Satan) in order to emphasize the amorality of his Machiavellian methods, provides perfect insight into the typical "revolutionary's" mindset.
Relativism & Deconstructivism
One of the ways through which the educational establishment has indoctrinated Americans has been to have them relativize and deconstruct their society, though not in a purely objective manner (if one can even be applied in theory), but along the lines of whatever will portray "the movement's" "cause" as "good/legitimate" and the existing system/establishment/everything else as "bad/illegitimate". That's not to say that relativism and deconstructivism aren't useful to practice, but just to point out that they're one of the more popular means through which generations have been manipulated, with the effects cumulatively building to the point where each generation becomes more radicalized than their predecessors. This is made possible not only by the "perfecting" of such "perception management" techniques, but also by indoctrinated parents forcing their children to believe the same things that they do, thus giving them an "ideological boost" from an early age that they themselves didn't have and which could make them radicalize faster and more intensely than they ever did. Convinced of the validity of their worldview and the supposed "necessity" of "revolution", these mass-produced "foot soldiers" then demand maximalist outcomes and unconditional surrenders.
"The Long March Through The Institutions"
The next factor to focus on is the concept of "the long march through the institutions" which seeks to embed "revolutionaries" and their "fellow travelers" (ideological sympathizers who might not be as radicalized as the first-mentioned) into various institutions beyond just the educational one. In practice, this most often takes the form of embedding them in influential places like the church, the media, and "Big Tech", to say nothing of all levels of government: local/state/federal and executive/legislative/judicial. The purpose is to slowly take control of the state and society without arousing too much suspicion, but as the infiltration begins to succeed, certain signs become visible once these individuals feel comfortable enough in their positions to start actively shaping the country through relevant policies. This also sometimes takes the form of "politically flamboyant" personalities becoming popular in society for their outspoken views such as Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and the rest of "the squad" alongside their "fellow travelers" in "Big Tech" like Twitter's Jack Dorsey among others for example. The end result is that society realizes that influential people harbor what had previously (and rightly) been considered to be radical ideologies, which contributes to gradually changing the national culture.
Gramsci's "Cultural Hegemony"
Interwar Italian Marxist theorist Antonio Gramsci is credited with pioneering the concept of "cultural hegemony" whereby he basically asserted that "revolutions" can increase their chance of success by capturing the national culture through various means. Nowadays this is seen not only in the public faces of some people who have completed "the long march through the institutions" (especially in the media), but also especially among celebrities. The outcome is that a certain so-called "political correctness" creeps in which pressures individuals to censor themselves from expressing any beliefs that don't conform with what's wrongly presented to be the "majority consensus" even though it's more often than not still only the view of the radical but influential minority. This doesn't always relate to the purely economic foundations of leftism either but increasingly takes the form of what critics have described as "Cultural Marxism", or the attempted application of leftism's common denominator of "equality" into the cultural sphere, which purely economic leftists decry as ideological heresy that discredits their ideas. Consequently, they refuse to associate with that term and those that use it despite many "Cultural Marxists" proudly espousing leftist economic views as well.
"Ideological Subversion"
In parallel with these previously mentioned processes is what KGB defector Yuri Bezmenov described during a 1985 interview as "ideological subversion". It's unimportant that he attributed this strategy to the USSR (whether rightly or wrongly) since it can be applied by any ideologically motivated network irrespective of partisanship that doesn't necessarily have to be state-backed. The four phases of "ideological subversion" are demoralization (making the majority skeptical of the status quo and feeling seemingly powerless to resist the "revolutionaries"), destabilization (a series of incidents that radicalize people and precondition the population to expect a crisis), crisis (the "trigger event" for catalyzing the most active and usually violent part of the campaign), and normalization ("the new normal" once the "revolutionaries" seize complete power even if they don't officially proclaim victory in the event that they succeeded in secret). As everything that's been discussed thus far in the analysis unfolds, the "Overton Window" shifts whereby what was previously considered radical is now seen as "normal" and the "old normal" becomes the "new radical" that's then presented by the "drivers of change" as the "dangerous fringe" that society must continue moving away from.
From Destabilization To Crisis
The phased transition from destabilization to crisis is facilitated by structural preconditioning such as the deliberate mental and economic hardships brought about by the Democrat Governors' decisions to impose strict COVID-19 lockdowns and the propagandizing of provocative narratives throughout society via the media such as the viral videos of police brutality against African-Americans. The first-mentioned makes the population more desperate and therefore increasingly likely to directly participate in the physical manifestation of the "revolution" even if they were previously having second doubts and preferred to only be "fellow travelers" (passive supporters). The second, meanwhile, incites the "revolutionary vanguard" (the role of which some participants such as criminally inclined African-Americans today aren't even conscious that they're playing) into a rage that triggers their prior amoral programming by reminding them that "the ends justify the means" even if it's only to opportunistically take advantage of the forthcoming crisis for selfish reasons like looting. Taken together, this further the "conscious vanguard's" cause of chaos that'll enter into effect upon the commencement of the crisis.
Color Revolution Chaos
The ongoing kinetic phase of the Hybrid War of Terror on America couldn't have been possible had it not been for the uncontrollable proliferation of the same Color Revolution tactics and strategies that the US government invented over nearly the past two decades then subsequently spread across the internet. It was therefore only a matter of time before "revolutionaries" at home began to apply the same methods against the US government itself in a completely expected twist of fate. The author's work from half a decade ago about "The Color Revolution Model: An Exposé Of The Core Mechanics" explains these processes at length, while his book from around the same time about "Hybrid Wars: The Indirect Adaptive Approach To Regime Change" explains the phased transition from Color Revolutions (weaponized protests) to Unconventional Wars (terrorism). In short, the terrorist phase begins to emerge after the security services' reaction to violent protests is caught on camera but deceptively decontextualized and misportrayed. The edited footage is then propagated throughout society to escalate the self-sustaining cycle of unrest by delegitimizing the said security services and their government, which further radicalizes the population into passively or actively supporting terrorism.
Strategic Escalations
The kinetic (physical, violent) phase of the decades-long Hybrid War of Terror on America is greatly aided by the "fellow travelers" who completed their "long march through the institutions" of government, specifically the Democrats in charge of local municipalities and various states. Many of them refuse to order the police and National Guard respectively to properly respond to the Color Revolution for two primary reasons. The first is to radicalize the majority of the population that's against this destruction so as to precondition them into expecting a "race war", while the second is to then reinforce the perception of Trump as a "fascist dictator" to the already radicalized "revolutionaries" and their "fellow travelers" once he's forced to take control of the National Guard and/or dispatch the military with the authority to use lethal force at their discretion to quell the unrest. That seemingly inevitable development will lead to the previously described decontextualization of such a response through edited footage that would become more "credible" to many if the "fellow traveling" peaceful protesters voluntarily use themselves as "human shields" to protect the urban terrorists among them, thus sacrificing themselves for "the cause" as "martyrs" whose deaths will be blamed on Trump personally.
Insubordination & Defection
"The long march through the institutions" also seeks to infiltrate the security services even though they're typically the most resilient, but the "sleeper cells" among them and their media allies can attempt to get their "moderate" colleagues to seriously consider refusing to fulfill their professional duty to restore law and order, especially if they're pressured not to "kill their own people" (an oft-abused phrase regularly employed by the US government to delegitimize those foreign governments targeted by its history of Hybrid Wars and which lethally respond to these external provocations in self-defense). "Dog whistles" are already being blown in this respect by former Defense Secretary Mattis and Espers the incumbent one who have both contradicted the President to different degrees regarding his plans to reestablish law and order. This increases the likelihood that the aforesaid "sleeper cells" can deploy other bespoke information warfare narratives against their "fellow" members of the security services such as imploring them to "obey the Constitution and not the fascist dictator who's ordering the illegal use of force against peaceful protesters out of self-interested political desperation to prevent his inevitable toppling by the people". If successful, then the result this devious information warfare operation could be game-changing.
Electoral Context
It's impossible to ignore the fact that the ongoing Hybrid War of Terror on America is occurring in the run-up to the November elections. The Minneapolis "trigger event" (which might be one of many up the seemingly never-ending escalation ladder) wasn't planned but something of the sort might have been had that not happened in order to catalyze the current chaos. The timing is extremely strategic because it's intended to totally destabilize the country ahead of its pivotal vote that might prospectively hand Trump his final term, after which he'd be completely "unchained" without any future electoral considerations whatsoever to pursue his own promised "revolutionary" agenda that threatens to reverse the leftists' "march through the institution" ("draining the swamp"/"fighting the deep state") in as radical of a manner as he'd want. To stop him, they hope to "hack" the election by exploiting this chaos to convince more people to vote Democrat, but as an "insurance policy", they also plan to use mail-in ballots in order to steal the election. Should they fail to do that and he's not overthrown beforehand in a military coup, then they'll likely intensify their Hybrid War on the basis that he supposedly "stole the election" following the narrative that the US itself used against so many targets abroad over the years.
Global Importance
The whole world is watching what happens because of the global importance that the outcome of this conflict will undoubtedly have. It shouldn't be forgotten that it's occurring in the midst of what the author previously described as World War C, which refers to the full-spectrum paradigm-changing processes unfolding as a result of every government's response to the COVID-19 global pandemic that readers can learn more about here, here, and here. In accordance with the precepts of Stephen Mann's "Chaos Theory And Strategic Thought", the initial conditions at the onset of any complex process will disproportionately influence their outcome ("the butterfly effect"), so even Trump's possible victory might only be a Pyrrhic one when it comes to America's global standing in the emerging Multipolar World Order depending on how much damage is done domestically during the course of this conflict. Another point to keep in mind is that he's also the leader of the worldwide nationalist/anti-globalism movement so the onset of the kinetic phase of this Hybrid War sends a strong message to other like-minded leaders that something similar could also happen to them at any time too unless they were more successful than the US was in stopping "the long march through the institutions".
Concluding Thoughts
The ongoing phase of the Hybrid War of Terror on America can be conceptualized as the explosion of a long-ticking time bomb similar in effect to what happened a generation ago in the USSR after US-backed nationalist "revolutionaries" there succeeded in destroying it from within using almost identical means. This observation speaks to the fact that such methods aren't exclusive to any given ideology but vary depending upon the targeted state's unique socio-economic and political characteristics, which could in the future be more easily identified and tracked using the strategic insight obtained by "Big Data" operations such as the one that Cambridge Analytica was notoriously accused of.
Considering that this is a conflict that was decades in the making, it won't be resolved anytime soon, especially since the "revolutionary" side is convinced that "the ends justify the means", which makes the use of terrorism against their "fellow" Americans "acceptable" to them. Although every government in the world officially condemns this method of warfare which doesn't have any ideology, race, religion, nationality, or borders, many of them and their compatriots are more than happy to watch the havoc that this Hybrid War will wreak for purely ideological reasons pertaining to their hatred for the American government (irrespective of whether or not that hatred is justified) even though the majority of victims will likely be innocent people of all "colors".
This
hypocritical position is explained by the fact that those abroad sense
that this conflict is an "historical opportunity" to knock the US "out
of the game" once and for all, and by none other than its own Hybrid War
means that it so eagerly used to employ against almost everyone else in
one way or another. For this self-interested reason, they might even
intensify their information warfare against the US in order to embolden
the "revolutionaries" and "demoralize" the average American that's
against this reign of terror by trying to convince them
that they "deserve" all of this because they pay taxes to "fund the
evil empire" for what it does overseas in their name without their
knowledge or permission. Some of these average Americans will almost
certainly submit, but tens of millions of others probably won't go down
without a fight, even if it's to the death.

There's No Longer Any Question That Biden Carried Out A Cover-Up In Ukraine
Caught Red-Handed
Ukrainian lawmaker Andrei Derkach released audio recordings
that he claims to have received from journalists which convincingly
sound as though they're truly of former President Poroshenko's numerous
conversations with former Vice President and current Democrat
front-runner Biden. The content of their chats concerns the latter's
efforts to pressure the then-Ukrainian leader to remove General
Prosecutor Shokin, which Trump and many of his surrogates have claimed
was undertaken in an attempt to cover up his son Hunter's corruption at
the Burisma gas company where he was employed and which was the subject
of an investigation by Shokin. The recordings are remarkably frank, with
Poroshenko proudly pledging fealty to Biden and regularly updating him
on the progress that he's made in keeping what he refers to as his
"promises" to the former Vice President.

The Real Ukrainegate & Russiagate Scandals
The Daily Beast reported that suspicions are swirling over whether the leak was an inside job in Ukraine or the result of so-called "Russian hacking", but that's just an attempt to distract from the calls, just like the unproven claims that Russia was responsible for hacking the DNC's emails four years ago. The real Ukrainegate scandal therefore wasn't over the now-debunked allegations that Trump engaged in a quid pro quo with current Ukrainian President Zelensky in an attempt to reopen this investigation for supposedly political reasons, but over Biden's attempts to cover up his son's corruption in Ukraine in order to not hurt the Vice President's future campaign prospects. This is similar in essence to how the real Russiagate scandal wasn't about Russia allegedly helping Trump, but about Hillary trading the US' strategic uranium deposits for Clinton Foundation kickbacks.
Pattern Of Hypocrisy
The pattern at play is unmistakable, and it's that the Democrats have recently taken to accusing Trump of the same spirit of what they themselves are really guilty of. Be it in carrying out shady deals with Russia, Ukraine, or whichever other country's dirty laundry has yet to reach the light of day, the Democrats have a track record of international corruption unlike Trump, who comes off as squeaky clean in comparison. That's not to absolve the sitting American President of whatever his administration might secretly be doing abroad, but just to point out that the two highest-profile accusations of corruption against him have been proven to be false and much more applicable to the same party that publicly made them in the first place.
Intriguing Timing
The timing of the Biden-Poroshenko leaks is intriguing and deserves some further analysis. It's unclear why they weren't released any earlier considering that the fake Ukrainegate impeachment conspiracy against Trump began last summer, which suggests that they might have either only been recently obtained or strategically kept in reserve to unveil at an opportune moment during the 2020 campaign. If the latter, then the current timing might be connected to the Democrats' desperate attempts to pin the blame for the US' controversial handling of World War C on Trump personally in yet another effort to impeach him or at the very list tilt the upcoming vote to his opponent's favor. Regarding that selfsame opponent, Biden seems to be afflicted with dementia and is widely considered to simply be a stand-in functioning as a puppet of more shadowy party interests.
A "Dark Horse" For The Democrats?
There's been some debate in Democrat circles about the wisdom of promoting him as their candidate of choice, but they probably didn't have any more viable option since the other politicians in the primary either didn't manage to generate any genuine grassroots support from their party's base or were considered too radical and therefore unable to appeal to the on-the-fence voters in "Main Street" America who'll likely decide this election like usual. With that in mind, these criminally incriminating leaks could either throw the party further into disarray or present an opportunity for a so-called "dark horse" replacement to be put forth by the party during its summer convention, meaning that they might have been an inside job by disgruntled Democrat "deep state" operatives who don't believe in Biden's ability to beat Trump and want to force the party to replace him.
Democrats = Corruption
It can only be speculated who's really behind the leaks and why, but they'll likely end up being extremely damaging to Biden's campaign. He's now been caught red-handed doing exactly what his party wrongly accused Trump of last summer, and the average American -- while generally susceptible to partisan propaganda from both sides of the aisle -- isn't so stupid as to not realize that. At the very least, these leaks confirm that the Democrats are indeed the party of corruption seeing as how they denied Trump's original accusations against Biden but then subsequently concocted a literal conspiracy to try to impeach him once it was proven that he took tangible action to revive the investigation into Hunter's corruption. They wouldn't have done something so dramatic if there wasn't any corruption there to begin with, which makes them look even guiltier in hindsight.
Concluding Thoughts
There's
no longer any question that Biden carried out a cover-up in Ukraine,
with it now remaining to be seen how this will impact his campaign and
the Democrats more broadly. In all likelihood, the party will be unable
to recover from this enormous blow to its reputation, though there's
still a faint chance that they might seek to reinvigorate their
electoral prospects by replacing Biden with a "dark horse" candidate
during this summer's convention. Should that transpire, then that
individual would probably be distanced from the Obama Administration
since it's now forever tainted with corruption after the second most
powerful man in the country at that time has now been proven to have
engaged in high-level corruption and foreign meddling. Politically
speaking, Biden is now a "dead man walking", and it wouldn't be
surprising if the Democrats dump their puppet in favor of one who they
can at least portray as being "less controversial" than Trump.

China Warns US at Brink of Starting 'New Cold War' with Beijing
China says
some “political forces” in the United States have taken bilateral
relations hostage and are pushing the world’s two biggest economies
towards “a new Cold War.”
Related: US General: We Are At War with China
Speaking on the sidelines of the National People’s Congress in Beijing Sunday, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Wu said “a political virus is spreading in the United States” which is “using every opportunity to attack and smear China.”
Wang said China has no intention to either change or replace the U.S., and that the U.S. should abandon its “wishful thinking of changing China and stopping 1.4 billion people in their historic march toward modernization.”
The Trump administration has clashed with Beijing over a range of issues in recent months, including trade, technology, and the coronavirus pandemic, with President Donald Trump himself alleging the virus escaped from a lab in Wuhan, the central Chinese city where the virus was first detected late last year.

Senate panel approves subpoena in Hunter Biden probe
The Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee on Wednesday voted 8-6 to subpoena Blue Star Strategies, a lobbying firm that was a consultant to Burisma, a gas company in Ukraine that paid Hunter Biden to serve as a board member.
There is no evidence of wrongdoing by the Bidens, and Hunter Biden has denied using his influence with his father to aid Burisma. But Republicans coming to President Donald Trump’s defense during and after last year’s impeachment trial have encouraged investigations of Hunter Biden’s activities, questioning whether his highly paid job created a conflict of interest for Joe Biden as the former vice president worked on Ukraine policy in the Obama administration
The chairman of the Republican-led panel, Wisconsin Sen. Ron Johnson, has repeatedly insisted that the investigation is not designed to hurt Biden, the presumptive Democratic nominee in this year’s presidential election. Another Republican on the committee, Florida Sen. Rick Scott, said at the vote that “we need to get to the truth about the Bidens’ relationship with Burisma. These hearings will provide the Senate with the full picture.”
A Biden campaign spokesman said in a statement that Johnson was “running a political errand” for Trump.
“Senator Johnson should be working overtime to save American lives — but instead he’s just trying to save the president’s job,” said Andrew Bates.
Democrats decried the investigations as politically motivated and said they are a distraction from work the committee could be doing to try to help mitigate the pandemic.
“At this moment when Americans need us to work together, this extremely partisan investigation is pulling us apart,” said Michigan Sen. Gary Peters, the top Democrat on the committee.
Peters noted a letter from Blue Star Strategies to the committee in which the CEO, Karen Tramontano, said the company has already cooperated with the probe and is willing to cooperate further. Johnson told Peters that he would allow the letter to be added to the committee’s official record, but said he disagreed that the company has been cooperating.
Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer accused Republicans of promoting “conspiracy theories.”
“It appears the subpoena is just for show, a way to create the false impression of wrongdoing,” Schumer said Wednesday from the Senate floor. “It’s like in a third world dictatorship, a show trial with no basis in fact, with no due process, with no reality.”
Trump has been clear about his intentions to use Hunter Biden’s work in his reelection bid, saying in March that it will be a “major issue” in the campaign. “I will bring that up all the time,” he said then.
The president’s efforts to have Ukraine investigate Hunter Biden’s role as a board member for Burisma were at the heart of House Democrats’ impeachment probe last year. Trump asked Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy to investigate the Bidens on a July phone call that was later revealed by a whistleblower’s complaint.
The House impeached Trump in December for pressuring the Ukrainian
government on investigations while withholding military aid to the
country. The Senate acquitted him in February.

Michael Flynn's Attorney slams FBI, Obama: This was 'orchestrated'
James Rybicki, who served as chief of staff to former FBI Director James Comey, suggested in sworn testimony that the Trump-Russia collusion investigation was orchestrated by Obama's White House in October 2016, according to newly released bureau documents.
A heavily redacted transcript of Rybicki's interview with the U.S. Office of Special Counsel includes an unidentified prosecutor's summary of the former FBI official's testimony.
"So we understand," the prosecutor says, "that at some point in October of 2016, there was, I guess, a desire by the White House to make some kind of statement about Russia's. ... "
The next page is omitted.
The United States Office of Special Counsel, not to be confused with Robert Mueller's special counsel, is a permanent independent federal investigative and prosecutorial agency designed to protect federal employees from reprisal for "whistleblowing."
Lawyer Ty Clevenger obtained the documents as part of a lawsuit on behalf of businessman Ed Butowsky, who claims columnist Ellen Ratner told him murdered Democratic National Committee worker Seth Rich and his brother provided WikiLeaks the DNC emails before the 2016 election, not Russia.
Clevenger explained that the OSC prosecutors were noting that the FBI publicized its reactivation of the Clinton email investigation shortly before the 2016 election. So, why, the prosecutors wondered, did the FBI not counterbalance that disclosure by publicizing the "Russian collusion" investigation into Donald Trump?
It was in that context that one of the prosecutors commented that the White House wanted some kind of statement made about Russia.
Clevenger said that almost certainly refers to the Oct. 7, 2016, joint statement of the Department of Homeland Security and the Directorate of National Intelligence. The agencies said the "U.S. Intelligence Community (USIC) is confident that the Russian Government directed the recent compromises of e-mails from US persons and institutions, including from US political organizations."
"In other words," Clevenger said, "it looks like the Obama White House put its thumb on the scale, pressuring intelligence agencies to adopt the Democratic National Committee's talking points, i.e., to blame the stolen emails on Russian hackers rather than an internal source (like Seth Rich)."
The lawyer noted that no federal agency has examined the DNC servers, relying only on a redacted report from a private security company, CrowdStrike, that has strong Democratic affiliations.
Crowdstrike was hired by Perkins Coie, the law firm retained by the Hillary Clinton Campaign and the DNC that hired Christopher Steele and Fusion GPS to produce the infamous anti-Trump "dossier." The dossier of unverified claims by unidentified senior Russian officials was used by the Obama Justice Department and DOJ to obtain warrants to spy on the Trump campaign.
Clevenger said CrowdStrike and the DNC are fighting subpoenas he issued on behalf of Butowsky for information about the servers and the purported Russian hacking.

Yuan Crashes After Trump Weighs Blocking Retirement Fund Access To Chinese Stocks As War Of Words Escalates
Having tumbled yesterday on the first set of headlines reporting on the Trump administration's plans to seek 'COVID reparations' amid accusations of Chinese 'meddling' in the US election (obviously not in favor of Trump), the Chinese yuan legged dramatically lower in this evening's illiquid session which sees most of Asia closed for May Day, after Bloomberg reports that Trump is exploring blocking a government retirement fund from investing in Chinese equities considered a national security risk.
Trump made his initial threats from the Rose Garden at the White House Monday after he was pressed by a reporter over a German newspaper report suggesting that China should be issued a $160 billion invoice for the impact on Europe's economy.
The president responded he had a "much easier" idea:
"We have ways of doing things a lot easier than that," Trump told the coronavirus press briefing. "Germany’s looking at things, and we’re looking at things, and we’re talking about a lot more money than Germany’s talking about."Asked whether he was considering the use of tariffs or even a debt write-offs for China (something which Larry Kudlow vehemently rejected earlier on Thursday), Trump would not offer specifics.
"We haven’t determined the final amount yet. It’s very substantial," Trump added, suggesting it would be significantly more than the $160 billion floated in German media.
“There are many things I can do,” he said. “We’re looking for what happened.”Since then various plans have been proposed, but Trump escalated the war of words further, during an Oval Office interview with Reuters published Wednesday night, saying that he thinks that China is determined to see him lose the November election based on Beijing’s response to the coronavirus, and that he is considering various ways to punish the Chinese government which he he again blamed for allowing the virus to spread across the world.
"China will do anything they can to have me lose this race," Trump said in the interview and said he was looking at different options in terms of consequences for Beijing over the virus. “I can do a lot,” he said.Which was quickly followed by denials from Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Geng Shuang, saying that China has no interest in interfering in internal U.S. affairs (unless of course that 'affair' involves investigating the origin of COVID-19). China hopes some people in U.S. won’t drag country into its internal processes, Geng said.
The issue being China's addition to the index, and thus the fund being forced to allocate significant capital to the Chinese stock markets, at a time when the gloves between the two nations are clearly off.
Needless to say, the optics of the US halting capital from entering China would be staggering and could result in a reversion of China-bound capital flows across all Western countries until the current war of words between Trump and Xi rages. The only problem is that, as we noted yesterday, this particular war of words could last a long time, since there is no longer any impetus to kiss and make up, and if anything, Trump will only escalate the anti-China sentiment into the election (and after), to keep pounding that the collapse resulting from the coronavirus pandemic is not his fault, but rather's Beijing, even as China pursues a mirror image approach, blaming the US for launching the pandemic.
The most obvious market reaction for now is in Offshore Yuan which has collapsed in the last two days, extending losses tonight...

Bloomberg reports that Senator Marco Rubio, a Florida Republican, applauded reports of the move in a statement Thursday.
“It’s outrageous that five unelected bureaucrats appointed by the previous administration have ignored bipartisan calls from Congress to reverse this short-sighted decision, and I applaud President Trump for directing his administration to take swift action preventing this from going forward,” he said.We would expect China to be furious at this discussion and wonder what they will do to stall this move - one suggestion, given the weakness in US equity futures overnight, is to push volatility back into US markets - to shake the faith in the dramatic market rebound (that The Fed enabled).

US-China Relations on the Rocks?
Both right wings of the US war party are hostile toward sovereign independent states that are free from its imperial control.
It’s notably true for nations with enormous hydrocarbon resources like Iran and Venezuela — what the US seeks control over for added ability to dominate other countries.
Most of all, it’s true for powerful nations like China and Russia, able to challenge US hegemonic aims effectively.
Russia’s super-weapons, exceeding the best in the West, made it the world’s dominant military power.
China’s growing economic, industrial, technological, and political power most concerns US policymakers because of the country’s increasing preeminence on the world stage at the expense of America in decline.
In their eyes, China is public enemy No. 1. Are both countries on a collision course for confrontation?
A rupture in political relations could follow the Trump regime’s trade war.
It’s exacerbated by unacceptable Pentagon incursions close to and in Chinese waters, and now falsely blaming Beijing for spreading COVID-19 outbreaks to shift responsibility from US failures to deal with the public health crisis effectively.
Intense China bashing affects US public opinion. A February Gallup poll showed two-thirds of Americans view Beijing mostly or very unfavorably — a 20 point decline from 2018.
A March poll by the organization showed nearly half of US respondents view China as a “critical threat.”
A new Pew Research poll showed two-thirds of Americans view China unfavorably. When Trump took office, it was 47%.
According to Asia Society’s director Orville Shell, “(i)t’s hardly surprising.”
“It’s now just about the only thing in Washington that Republicans and (Dems) agree on…(They) have a much more skeptical view of China’s intentions” — ignoring their own.
According to former US National Security Council member Douglas Paal, proposed congressional legislation calls for greater get tough on China policies.
It’s an election issue. Congressional members and aspirants believe that publicly bashing China is a way to gain voter support.
Bilateral relations are likely to worsen ahead, including in the aftermath of US November elections — heightening the risk of confrontation by accident or design.
The outlook ahead is unsettling at best, a matter of great concern if bilateral relations continue deteriorating.
A rupture will be harmful to both countries. The US is China’s largest export market. It’s a major market for US exports.
According to the St. Louis Fed, agricultural products, aircraft, motor vehicles, and microchips are the top US exports to China.
The country is the world’s leading source of low-cost goods for the US and many other nations. It’s a major buyer of US Treasuries.
In response to growing contentious relations with the US, China began developing internal consumer-led growth years ago, including for services — to be less dependent on exports for future growth, especially to the West.
Has Russiagate shifted to Chinagate? US anti-China Cold War poses the risk of turning hot.
Is mutual trust beyond repair short-or-longer-term?
The issue goes way beyond Trump and GOP hardliners. If Biden succeeds DJT as president in January, Sino/US relations are unlikely to improve.
Given the current trend, they’re more likely to further deteriorate.
Obama’s 2013 Asia pivot aimed to reassert America’s East Pacific presence by advancing its military footprint in a part of the world where it doesn’t belong.
It aims to challenge and counter China growing preeminence on the world stage, while checking Russia in its far east at the same time.
Containment has been US policy throughout the post-WW II period, targeting nations able to challenge its hegemonic aims.
Cold War politics rages on multiple fronts, mainly against China and Russia — in the Middle East against Iran, in Latin America against Venezuela, Cuba and Nicaragua.
It’s what the scourge of Washington’s imperial agenda is all about, risking endless wars by hot and other means.
US imperial overreach threatens everyone everywhere.
What’s unthinkable is possible, the risk of military confrontation with China and/or Russia that could go nuclear if pushed too far.

‘Dirty cop Comey got caught!’: Trump unloads on FBI after documents reveal effort to set up General Flynn
President Donald Trump has bashed former FBI Director James Comey, after unsealed documents revealed an agency plot to entrap Gen. Michael Flynn in a bid to take down the Trump presidency.
DIRTY COP JAMES COMEY GOT CAUGHT!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) April 30, 2020
Flynn served as Trump’s national security adviser in the first days of the Trump presidency, before he was fired for allegedly lying about his contact with Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak.
An FBI investigation followed, and several months later, Flynn pleaded guilty to Special Counsel Robert Mueller about lying during interviews with agents. He has since tried to withdraw the plea, citing poor legal defense and accusing the FBI and Obama administration of setting him up from the outset.
Documents unsealed by a federal judge on Wednesday seem to support that argument. In one handwritten note, dated the same day as Flynn’s FBI interview in January 2017, the unidentified note-taker jots down some potential strategies to use against the former general.
“We have a case on Flynn + Russians,” the note reads. “What’s our goal? Truth/Admission or to get him to lie, so we can prosecute him or get him fired?”
#FLYNN docs just unsealed, including handwritten notes 1/24/2017 day of Flynn FBI interview. Transcript: “What is our goal? Truth/Admission or to get him to lie, so we can prosecute him or get him fired?” Read transcript notes, copy original just filed. @CBSNews pic.twitter.com/8oqUok8i7m— Catherine Herridge (@CBS_Herridge) April 29, 2020
The unsealed documents also include an email exchange between former agent Peter Strzok and former FBI lawyer Lisa Page, in which the pair pondered whether to remind Flynn that lying to federal agents is a crime. Page and Strzok were later fired from the agency, after a slew of text messages emerged showing the pair’s mutual disdain for Trump, and discussing the formulation of an “insurance policy” against his election.
Flynn’s discussions with Kislyak were deemed truthful by former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe. Additionally, a Washington Post article published the day before Flynn’s January 2017 interview revealed that the FBI had tapped his calls with the Russian ambassador and found “nothing illicit.”
Still, Section 1001 of the US Criminal Code, which makes it illegal to lie to a federal agent, is broad in its scope. Defense Attorney Solomon Wisenberg wrote that “even a decent person who tries to stay out of trouble can face criminal exposure under Section 1001 through a fleeting conversation with government agents.”

Putin And Trump vs The New World Order: The Final Battle
Dropping dollars
Digging the abyss
Tragedy and hope
The punchline
This outmost daring move comes at a crucial point in time, and faces us with the realization that Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump are united and have taken humanity to the crossroads of the New World Order and freedom. As I have stated often before, I thought that the world would deeply change between 2020 and 2024, because these would be the last 4 years of these two heroes in political power of their nations.
