FISA memo said to contain FOUR ‘explosive’ revelations that have NOT LEAKED (so far)

(National Sentinel) FISA Memo: Reports on Thursday evening continued to claim that the so-called “FISA Memo” would likely be released on Friday. Even so, one report noted something new: The memo allegedly contains four startling revelations that have yet to be discussed in previous news reports.

“Senior Republicans are pushing back on reports suggesting that this memo will not live up to the hype, telling me there are four separate explosive revelations in the memo that have not leaked out ahead of tomorrows expected release,” Fox News chief political correspondent Ed Henry told host Martha McCallum.

Henry noted further that if the claim is true, it ought to vindicate House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes, R-Calif., who has been accused by Democrats and Left-leaning media of playing politics with the memo.

Previously, Republican lawmakers have dropped hints as to what the memo contains. Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., for instance, hinted to Fox News‘ Judge Jeanine Pirro that the memo outlines how the U.S. government may have committed fraud by presenting the courts with “false information,” to obtain FISA warrants.

“You’re aware as a Judge of the way evidence has to be authenticated and presented to a court to get a warrant,” began the Florida Republican.

“It has to be probable cause to sign a warrant,” Judge Jeanne interrupted.

“Of course, and prosecutors and investigators cannot perpetrate frauds on the court by presenting false information or information they know to be false,” Rep. Gaetz continued.

Mueller has ‘stacked the deck’ against Trump: View

(National Sentinel) The Swamp: If you believed from the outset that the appointment of special counsel Robert Mueller to look into “collusion” between the Trump campaign and Russia was a farce and a set-up — an investigation on top of an ongoing investigation by the FBI that had not produced a shred of evidence after a year — your instincts were right.

Fox News anchor Gregg Jarrett, a former defense attorney, thinks so too. In a Friday column, he says he believes that Mueller has “stacked the deck” against Trump using a lop-sided investigatory process that heavily favors the prosecution:

It appears that this is the way special counsel Robert Mueller has approached his investigation. Consider the evidence. 

Mueller chose, of all places, the venue of Washington, D.C., to convene a grand jury to examine evidence in the Russia-Trump investigation. It would be difficult to find a group of people more hostile to Trump than in the nation’s capital. The president garnered a scant four percent of the vote there, compared to Hillary Clinton’s 93 percent.    

There was already a grand jury convened in Virginia looking into the related Michael Flynn matter and Mueller could have easily presented his case there. But no, that would run the risk of being potentially fair to the president since the jurors there are more apt to be politically bipartisan. So, from the outset, Mueller dealt himself a high ace on his way to a royal flush.

His next card, a king, is the grand jury process itself. Over time, this Fifth Amendment principle has devolved into a one-sided farce, favoring only the prosecution. Defense attorneys are not allowed inside what has become a secret “star chamber, permitting no adverse party to challenge the truth and credibility of witnesses through the test of cross-examination. It gets worse. 

There are no enforceable rules of evidence during grand jury proceedings, which means that otherwise inadmissible hearsay or double-hearsay is perfectly acceptable. Unauthenticated documents are copacetic. Prosecutors are free to present only incriminating evidence, to the exclusion of exculpatory evidence.  All too often grand jurors simply rubber-stamp a prosecutor’s instructions. Thus, the old saying, “you can get a grand jury to indict a ham sandwich.” 

With no meaningful limits on abusive tactics, the entire system is anathema to fairness.  A grand jury is to justice what military music is to music.  It bears no resemblance. My apologies to John Philip Sousa, but you get the point. This is precisely why grand juries, which were once in vogue everywhere, have now been banished in all nations except the United States and Liberia. 

Mueller’s queen card is the Obama-appointed judge likely overseeing the D.C. grand jury. Under local court rules, Chief U.S. District Judge Beryl Howell is the one who presides over decisions on grand jury subpoenas, witness testimony, any executive privilege and possible Fifth Amendment assertions. In the past, she worked closely with former Attorney General Loretta Lynch and one of Mueller’s top staff lawyers, Andrew Weissman.

Indeed, Howell and Weissman co-authored a scholarly law article that explored obstruction of justice… which just happens to be part of what Mueller is reportedly investigating in the Russia-Trump case. Betsy Woodruff of the Daily Beast uncovered this nugget. A conflict of interest? Surely. But don’t expect a judicial recusal anytime soon, even though Judge Howell teaches ethics at American University’s law school.

Dealing himself a jack, Mueller has chosen to hire for his staff an unconscionable number of lawyers of the liberal persuasion. Out of 14 lawyers retained thus far, eight have donated to Democrats while none appear to have contributed a nickel to Republicans. Several of Mueller’s lawyers gave generously to “Hillary for America,” while another actually represented the Clinton Foundation. The special counsel could have selected a more balanced team devoid of partisan ties, but he deliberately chose not to do so.

Finally, Mueller is holding a precious ten card in the very man who hired him, Rod Rosenstein, the Deputy Attorney General who authored the infamous memo advising President Trump to fire FBI Director James Comey. In any obstruction case arising therefrom, Rosenstein would be a prosecutor, investigator and witness all rolled into one. Despite his glaring conflict of interest, Rosenstein has made no move to step aside. Which means he is unlikely to fire Mueller for his own similar conflict of interest.

Jarrett, like others who have studied this case, believe Mueller shouldn’t even have been appointed in the first place, given his close personal relationship with fired FBI Director James Comey which is an obvious conflict of interest. Comey, you may also recall, intentionally leaked information to a friend, who then passed it along to the media, for the express purpose of having a special counsel appointed…a special counsel who just happened to be a close friend and colleague. And what’s more, the memos were found to have contained classified information — can you say “Espionage Act,” Mr. Director?

Coincidence?

This whole thing stinks like the fetid, nasty swamp Trump is trying to drain.

“It is inconceivable that Mueller could be completely impartial in judging the credibility of his friend versus the president who fired his friend in deciding whether to pursue a charge of obstruction,” writes Jarrett. “Even scrupulously honest people can be influenced in ways they do not recognize themselves. This is exactly why there are legal and ethical rules that demand recusal based on prior relationships. Even the appearance of a conflict is sufficient for recusal.  But Mueller remains on the job.”

Did the Deep State plan it’s bogus “Russia narrative” to discredit Trump because they believed ALL along he would BEAT Hillary Clinton?

By J. D. Heyes, editor-in-chief

(National Sentinel) Political espionage: Another supposed “bombshell” alleging more nefarious ‘collusion’ between Russia and the Trump campaign emerged over the weekend as The New York Times published new illegally leaked details of a short meeting between Donald Trump Jr., some members of the Trump campaign and a connected Russian lawyer just weeks after his father officially became the Republican nominee for president.

“The previously unreported meeting was also attended by Mr. Trump’s campaign chairman at the time, Paul J. Manafort, as well as the president’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner, according to interviews and the documents, which were outlined by people familiar with them,” the Times noted, naming Russian lawyer Natalia Veselnitskaya as the contact.

In a follow-up report, the Times — citing anonymous sources who said they are “familiar” with the meeting — then claimed the meeting was all part of Russia’s effort to help Trump beat his Democratic rival, Hillary Clinton:

The meeting — at Trump Tower on June 9, 2016, two weeks after Donald J. Trump clinched the Republican nomination — points to the central question in federal investigations of the Kremlin’s meddling in the presidential election: whether the Trump campaign colluded with the Russians. The accounts of the meeting represent the first public indication that at least some in the campaign were willing to accept Russian help.

Uh-oh, right? Smoking gun! Left-wing Democrats and their media allies everywhere are no doubt shouting, “Ha! We knew it!” And “impeachment!”

But if this all sounds just a bit too convenient — having shown up only now after months and months and months of nothing burgers — it is just a bit too convenient. Even the Times reported in its second story: “It is unclear whether the Russian lawyer, Natalia Veselnitskaya, actually produced the promised compromising information about Mrs. Clinton. But the people interviewed by The Times about the meeting said the expectation was that she would do so.”

Of course. After all, if the goal has always been to saddle Trump and his inner circle with a garbage narrative like this, who needs proof when pure speculation will do?

To that point, as reported by Circa News, lawyers for Team Trump smell a big, fat Deep State rat in all of this new reporting that handily connects the “collusion” dots.

Circa reports that Donald Trump Jr. was approached shortly before his father was nominated by Veselnitskaya, who wanted to set up a meeting to discuss Russian policy, according to Trump family lawyers. The site noted further:

President Trump’s eldest son briefly gathered others for the meeting, including his brother-in-law Jared Kushner, as well as then-presidential campaign manager Paul Manafort for the meeting at Trump Tower in New York City with the lawyer, identified by Trump family lawyers as Natalia Veselnitskaya.

Veselnitskaya used the meeting in June 2016 to have a conversation about a U.S. law called the Magnitsky Act that Russia leader Vladimir Putin reviles and has retaliated against by blocking U.S. adoptions of Russian children.

The encounter was short and the Trump team had no further contact with the woman or the policy issue, lawyers said.

The meeting was recently disclosed to congressional investigators by one of the attendees, according to sources directly familiar with the disclosure.

Hence, the leak of this newly divulged information. Take note of the fact that nothing discussed was out of sorts, illegal, or had anything at all to do with the Times’ claim of “collusion” in accepting dirt on Clinton…that no one has said was actually delivered.Circa noted further that Trump himself was not aware of the meeting and did not attend it.

Circa then dropped this genuine bombshell:

The president’s legal team said … they believe the entire meeting may have been part of a larger election-year opposition effort aimed at creating the appearance of improper connections between Trump family members and Russia that also included a now-discredited intelligence dossier produced by a former British intelligence agent named Christopher Steele who worked for a U.S. political firm known as Fusion GPS.

And, as investigative reporter Paul Sperry recently reported, it’s very likely that Democrats were indeed behind that fake dossier, which has been debunked even by the guy who wrote it.

“We have learned from both our own investigation and public reports that the participants in the meeting misrepresented who they were and who they worked for,” said Mark Corallo, a spokesman the president’s legal team. “Specifically, we have learned that the person who sought the meeting is associated with Fusion GPS, a firm which according to public reports, was retained by Democratic operatives to develop opposition research on the President and which commissioned the phony Steele dossier.

“These developments raise serious issues as to exactly who authorized and participated in any effort by Russian nationals to influence our election in any manner,” Corallo continued.

Starting to get the picture?

Circa noted further that Veselnitskaya is identified in court papers as being a former Russian prosecutor and private Moscow-based lawyer who was representing Denis Katsyv, a Russian businessman, and his Prevezon Holdings, in a case against the U.S. Department of Justice involving civil asset forfeiture. One document said she had a difficult time getting a visa from American authorities.

So, how does this all fit in with Fusion GPS? Circa noted:

The connection drawn by the president’s lawyers between Veselnitskaya and Fusion GPS comes from a letter this spring by the Senate Judiciary Committee chairman Charles Grassley, who disclosed that Fusion GPS also provided litigation support in the Prevezon case.

Prevezon also apparently lobbied against the Magnitsky Act, according to Grassley’s letter.

“Prevezon’s lobbying efforts were reportedly commissioned by Mr. Katsyv, who organized them through a Delaware non-profit he formed and through the law firm then representing Prevezon in the asset forfeiture case, Baker Hostetler. Among others, the efforts involved lobbyist Rinat Akhmetshin and Fusion GPS, a political research firm led by Glenn Simpson,” Grassley noted in his letter.

And as The National Sentinel has reported, Grassley has charged that former FBI Director James Comey made inconsistent statements about the bureau’s relationship with Steele (and, by default, Fusion GPS).

What we have here is precisely what the Trump legal team is asserting: A year-long effort (at least) to plant a false narrative of “collusion” involving the president, his inner circle and the Russian government. (RELATED: The ‘Deep State’ Is At War With Trump And Will Continue To Undermine Him Throughout His Presidency)

With that, then consider this: We have been told for months that prior to the November election the Obama administration, the Deep State and the Democratic establishment all believed that Trump didn’t have a chance against Clinton in the general election. The media’s polling all showed that Trump would get skunked; the pundits all believed it; even some Republicans thought so.

So maybe, just maybe — given this new information — the Deep State saw how handily Trump had dispatched 16 other mostly qualified, experienced GOP candidates to win his party’s nomination and in reality believed he had a good shot of winning all along, thus creating the need develop some fake narrative in order to undermine his victory and delegitimize his presidency.

Who would go to all of this effort otherwise?

Obama’s cybersecurity czar: ‘NO evidence Russia hacked election’

(National Sentinel) Election 2016: President Obama’s trusted cyber security expert just said that he is certain – certain, mind you – that the Russians did not “hack” the presidential election last fall, but if you didn’t know that you are excused: No major U.S. media is reporting it.

Rather, it’s being reported in Israel, because former White House Special Assistant to the President and Cybersecurity Coordinator Michael Daniel was giving an interview to Israel Army Radio, not American media.

As reported by two trusted Israeli sources (here and here), Daniel said he is confident that last year’s election outcome did indeed reflect the will of the American people.

“I certainly think that the Russians or anyone else — they certainly didn’t change any votes, so that the votes that were cast properly reflect the votes of the American people,” Daniel said, as reported by the Times of Israel.

The news site reported further:

The FBI is also investigating ties between Trump’s staff and Moscow figures. US security agencies have said they discovered widespread attempts by Russian hackers to access voter details and have pointed the finger at Moscow as being behind the hack and subsequent leak of Democratic National Committee emails.

However, earlier this month US officials told the Senate committee that the cyber-assaults did not affect the eventual vote count.

This is the clearest admission yet from the Obama administration – and it certainly comes from someone who would be in the know regarding cybersecurity and hacking issues – that the entire Democrat- and Left-wing media-driven “Russia hacked the election” to help Donald J. Trump “steal” it from Hillary Clinton is nothing but a hoax.

This admission also exposes the Team Trump-Russia “collusion” narrative as a lie. Consider: If there is no evidence of ballot tampering, what was there to “collude” about?

Whether Russia hacked the Democratic National Committee, tried to hack the Republican National Committee or broke into Clinton campaign manager John Podesta’s email account is of little consequence, considering that Moscow and Washington have been alternately attempting to undermine each other’s political systems for decades.

So, the two principle questions – did the Russians change election results via their “hacking,” and was their collusion between Team Trump and Moscow to hijack the election results – have now been answered.

No, and no.

Can we move on now?

Why does the GOP-run Congress have time to investigate Trump, THEIR president, but no time to pass his agenda?

By J. D. Heyes, editor-in-chief

(National Sentinel) Congress: What the hell is going on with the Republican-led Congress – and I use the word “led” sacastically -?

Here we are, at the end of another week, and still President Donald J. Trump’s (and, allegedly, Republicans’) top two campaign priorities – repealing/replacing Obamacare and tax reform – are no closer to reality than they were the day Trump was inaugurated.

You know, the day that the GOP leadership claimed the party would have at least an Obamacare repeal bill waiting for the new president to sign:

At a Capitol Hill press conference following a meeting with Vice President-elect Mike Pence, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) stated that Obamacare repeal would be literally the first item of business when the new session begins.

“When we come back January 3, we’ll be moving to the Obamacare replacement resolution,” McConnell said. “The Obamacare repeal resolution will be the first item up in the new year.”

He made it clear that Republicans plan to proceed with the “repeal-and-delay” strategy that GOP leaders have been discussing publicly for the last few weeks.

Where is it? 

I’ll tell you where it is: It is currently bogged down in Mitch McConnell’s Senate, where too many Republicans have pledged to oppose it because a) it doesn’t really repeal Obamacare; b) it repeals too much of Obamacare; c) it leaves too much of the law’s taxes and spending intact; and d) it doesn’t leave enough taxing and spending intact.

If you’re getting the impression that too many Republicans are like Democrats – they love it that Washington has control over your health care – you’d be right.

And tax reform? Hah. Not holding my breath, and neither should you.

Oh, but the GOP Congress seems to have plenty of time to “investigate” its own president and his inner circle over bogus allegations that somehow they engineered the Herculean feat of collaborating with Moscow to “steal the election” from Hillary Clinton.

Weekly – and often daily – we learn of yet another Team Trump official coming under congressional scrutiny, as though this alleged collusion is a real thing and that somewhere, under some rock as yet unturned, the evidence will finally be discovered.

As ABC News reports – based yet again on another anonymous leak – now Trump’s long-time bodyguard is under the microscope:

Congressional investigators now want to interview Keith Schiller, President Donald Trump’s longtime bodyguard-turned-White House aide, as part of their investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential campaign, sources familiar with the investigation told ABC News.

Schiller, the former head of security for the Trump Organization who now serves as the White House director of Oval Office operations, is one of several Trump associates on the House Intelligence Committee’s witness list in its ongoing investigation into Russian election interference.

The committee’s focus on Schiller and other Trump campaign officials and associates marks a new phase in the investigation — which is examining how Russia attempted to influence the election, the Obama administration’s response and allegations of collusion between Trump associates and Russian officials.

It’s the latest indication that the investigations are touching Trump’s inner circle. In late July, longtime Trump associate Roger Stone is expected to appear before congressional investigators for a closed-door interview. The growing list of other Trump associates the committee has said they want to meet includes former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn, Trump son-in-law and senior adviser Jared Kushner, and former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort.

His bodyguard? Oh, for….

Dutifully, all the president’s men – Kushner, Manafort, Flynn and Stone – have willingly agreed to testify before whomever in Congress, most likely to get the BS over with so they can get on with their lives and, in some cases, continue serving their country.

Meanwhile, the investigations continue………ad infinitum. And let’s not forget there’s “special counsel” Robert Mueller skulking about, basking in GOP praise of “independence” while he is busy hiring every Left-wing Democratic lawyer he can find who has either donated to, or worked for, Hillary Clinton and Democratic officials.

And by the way, if all of this is about “Russian election interference,” why is the GOP-led Congress investigating Trump and his inner circle?

Wasn’t Obama president then? Why isn’t he being called testifying, along with members of his administration?

Maybe the problem with the Republican Congress being unable to enact the agenda they and the president ran on is because they’re too busy chasing Russian “collusion” conspiracies involving their own president.

They say the investigation is vital because “the American people expect answers.”

We already have our answer. The charges are bogus. It’s been a year since the FBI launched an investigation (at the Obama administration’s direction, by the way) into alleged Trump-Russia collusion; no evidence has been found. In fact, current and former Justice Department and intelligence community officials have repeatedly said so. 

Note to Republicans: Your antics and your stalling on legislative priorities to focus on your president is hurting you: A recently released Gallup survey found that there has been a 17-point drop in satisfaction among Republican voters in a single month, from May to June.

17 points. 

Do you idiots get it now? Because if you don’t, you never will.

At least, not until the country gives Democrats control of Congress again. And then the Trump hate will grow exponentially.

And maybe even impeachment.

Is that what you really wanted in the first place?

The Republican Congress was not given a majority to launch serial investigations into a duly-elected, and innocent as charged, president who just happens to belong to their party.

It was given a majority to get rid of the worst healthcare law ever passed on the planet, to provide Americans and businesses tax relief, to cut regulations, and to return power to states and to the people.

You boys and girls continue to ignore those mandates at your peril. The country will not forever be patient with your malfeasance.

Another CNN staffer admits Trump-Russia story is a hoax

(National Sentinel) Media: CNN‘s collapse as a viable news source continued on Wednesday, as Project Veritas, an undercover journalism organization headed by James O’Keefe, released a new video showing a prinhttps://youtu.be/l2G360HrSAsciple political contributor to the network admitting there is nothing to the so-called Trump-Russia “collusion” narrative.

Van Jones, a major political contributor to the network and a former official in the Obama administration, admits that the story is a “nothing burger.”

“The Russia thing is just a big nothing burger,” he says.

“Really?” the undercover media operative replies.

“Yep,” says Jones.

Watch:

 

This follows the release of a video of CNN Producer John Bonifield, who was caught touting the Russia narrative as “bullsh*t.”

“I mean, it’s mostly bullshit right now,” Bonifield says in the first video. “Like, we don’t have any giant proof.”

CNN and it’s far-Left media defenders have attempted to discount Bonifield’s characterization of his network’s coverage because he’s a senior producer of medical news.

According to Brian Stelter, host of the network’s “Reliable Sources” program, on Twitter, CNN released a statement stating that Bonifield is just a “Health Producer” and “isn’t involved in Russia or Trump coverage.”

So we’re to assume that CNN employees who produce content for the network are sequestered from one another and therefore not privy to “the latest” goings-on within the news division?

Okay, fine. That excuse was predictable, but alright.

Van Jones, by comparison, is directly involved in the network’s “Russia” coverage and has helped craft and perpetuate the “Russia” narrative.

And now he says it’s BS.

It’ll be interesting to hear CNN‘s excuse for his assessment.

Bombshell: Murdered DNC staffer Seth Rich leaked ‘thousands of emails’ to WikiLeaks

(National Sentinel) Political intrigue: As official Washington hyperventilates over whether or not President Donald J. Trump revealed highly classified information to Russian diplomats during a high-level meeting in the Oval Office last week, the really big news is of course being ignored – again – by the pathetic establishment media.

Fox News‘ Malia Zimmerman is reporting a bombshell – murdered Democratic National Committee staffer Seth Rich had multiple contacts with officials at WikiLeaks and had leaked “thousands of emails” from the DNC to the whistleblower site:

A federal investigator who reviewed an FBI forensic report detailing the contents of DNC staffer Seth Rich’s computer generated within 96 hours after his murder, said Rich made contact with WikiLeaks through Gavin MacFadyen, a now-deceased American investigative reporter, documentary filmmaker, and director of WikiLeaks who was living in London at the time.

“I have seen and read the emails between Seth Rich and Wikileaks,” the federal investigator told Fox News, confirming the MacFadyen connection. He said the emails are in possession of the FBI, while the stalled case is in the hands of the Washington Police Department.

The revelation is consistent with the findings of Rod Wheeler, a former DC homicide detective and Fox News contributor and whose private investigation firm was hired by Rich’s family to probe the case. Rich was shot from behind in the wee hours, but was not robbed.

“My investigation up to this point shows there was some degree of email exchange between Seth Rich and Wikileaks,” Wheeler said. “I do believe that the answers to who murdered Seth Rich sits on his computer on a shelf at the DC police or FBI headquarters.”

More:

The federal investigator, who requested anonymity, said 44,053 emails and 17,761 attachments between Democratic National Committee leaders, spanning from January 2015 through late May 2016, were transferred from Rich to MacFadyen before May 21.

You may recall that just 12 days after Rich was gunned down – with nothing taken – WikiLeaks published internal DNC emails that implicated top party officials conspiring to ensure that Hillary Clinton received the Democratic presidential nomination at any cost, and to stop Sen. Bernie Sanders’ rising popularity. The controversy resulted in Debbie Wasserman Schultz having to resign as head of the DNC.

Also, several Sanders supporters refused to back Clinton and instead formed groups to work against her and the Democratic Party.

Though WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange has not come out and publicly said he was working with Rich, he did offer $20,000 to anyone who had information regarding Rich’s murder.

Washington Metropolitan Police have no leads in the case and don’t appear to be willing to generate any. Fox News has repeatedly attempted to discuss the case with the department but no one is talking.

The FBI also would not comment on the story but other sources told the network that the bureau provided cyber expertise to let outside investigators look at Rich’s computer.

For his part, Wheeler smells a cover-up of the highest order – and, of course, it involves Hillary Clinton and the Democrats.

“My investigation shows someone within the D.C. government, Democratic National Committee or Clinton team is blocking the murder investigation from going forward,” Wheeler told Fox News. “That is unfortunate. Seth Rich’s murder is unsolved as a result of that.”

There is additional significance to this case that Fox News did not report, and it has to do with this bogus Democrat and establishment media-generated Russia-Trump-election hoax.

As we noted back in January, Assange has repeatedly said that Russia was not the source of the DNC emails he obtained, and that the entire Russia theory was nothing but an effort to undermine incoming President Donald J. Trump and his administration. Former Trump campaign official Roger Stone confirmed this just last week.

“They’re trying to delegitimize the Trump administration as it goes into the White House,” Assange said during an interview with Fox News’s Sean Hannity.

“They are trying to say that President-elect Trump is not a legitimate president,” Assange said.

The Russians, though? Were they the source of the leaked documents and emails?

“Our source is not a state party, so the answer for our interactions is no,” he said.

A month before our report, Natural News, citing the UK’s Daily Mail, reported that the emails obtained by WikiLeaks from the DNC came from a disgruntled insider and Sanders supporter – not the Russians:

After days of witnessing the left-wing media hyperventilate over completely fabricated claims that “the Russians” hacked the DNC emails and turned them over to Wikileaks, it turns out the emails were actually leaked by a DNC insider who was angry about the orchestrated elimination of Bernie Sanders by Clinton operatives.

The UK Daily Mail is now reporting that Craig Murray, the former British ambassador to Uzbekistan, personally met the email leaker who handed him the emails files later released by Wikileaks. The email leaker, a Bernie Sanders insider, was reportedly motivated by “disgust at the corruption of the Clinton Foundation and the tilting of the primary election playing field against Bernie Sanders,” reports the Daily Mail.

The hand-off took place in Washington D.C. in a wooded area near American University, Murray explained.

“As Julian Assange has made crystal clear, the leaks did not come from the Russians,” writes Murray on his website. “As I have explained countless times, they are not hacks, they are insider leaks – there is a major difference between the two. And it should be said again and again, that if Hillary Clinton had not connived with the DNC to fix the primary schedule to disadvantage Bernie, if she had not received advance notice of live debate questions to use against Bernie, if she had not accepted massive donations to the Clinton foundation and family members in return for foreign policy influence, if she had not failed to distance herself from some very weird and troubling people, then none of this would have happened. The continued ability of the mainstream media to claim the leaks lost Clinton the election because of ‘Russia’, while still never acknowledging the truths the leaks reveal, is Kafkaesque.”

Two things are now crystal clear following this bombshell Fox News report: A) The Russians did NOT hack the DNC (and if that is still being refuted by Democrats, then they need to explain why the party never allowed the FBI to examine the DNC systems that were allegedly “hacked”); and B) Any continued suggestion by the discredited establishment media and its Democratic sycophants that Russia is guilty and they are not, is completely bogus.

We are not suggesting that Moscow is a friend of the United States by any measure, only that blame for this massive cover-up and conspiracy be placed where it belongs – the criminal enterprise known as the Democratic Party.

Update: 17 May – Some sources are recanting parts of their story regarding what evidence they did and did not see, as the Washington Examiner is reporting. However, as our story indicates, the Fox News report echoes in large part the earlier reporting by the Daily Mail, the basis of which is that Russia was not the supplier of hacked DNC emails – that they came from a disgruntled DNC insider upset about the party’s treatment of Sen. Bernie Sanders. While parts of the Fox News report may or may not be true, we stand by the overall premise of our story, and point out that the facts of the earlier Daily Mail story have not been recanted or revised, to our knowledge.
