IS THE FDA THE CANARY IN THE COAL MINE WHEN IT COMES TO GOVERNMENT TREACHERY?

The FDA is analogous to a trusted third-party financial rating agency…

One of the most damaging factors in the 2008 mortgage meltdown and the broader financial crisis was the appearance of trusted third-party rating agencies to vouch for the underlying integrity of securities being sold to the public and institutional investors. We later found that the trusted third-party rating agencies were not only paid by those seeking ratings but were competing among the other rating agencies to secure business. While business competition is good for the buyer, it often produces false impressions for the consumer as the rating agency bends its “gold standard” analysis to generate revenue.

Similarly, we see the same thing with the FDA, a trusted third-party rating agency for the pharmaceutical industry that derives a significant portion of its funding from the “user fees” paid by the pharmaceutical companies seeking approval for their drugs and medical devices.

Has the FDA been corrupted in the same manner as the rating agencies?

At this point, one can only suspect that the FDA has been politicized and has altered their off-label approvals, recommendations, and conditional use permits to satisfy those in the pharmaceutical industry who have invested large sums of money in a taxpayer-funded, consistently profitable "vaccine" business, worth billions of dollars per year.

Science or “the science?”

There is no such thing as “the science.” The underlying science of our universe is immutable and not easily subject or susceptible to change. What changes in our understanding of science as time progresses. In fact, the one variable that cannot be simulated to any degree of certainty is time, especially how any pharmaceutical product will work over long time periods in the general population.

Why should the FDA be suspect?

One, they are corrupting the scientific method by withholding the public dissemination of information about the approval process itself as well as the information submitted by the companies seeking approvals -- often under the guise of “proprietary information” or “trade secret” claims.

Two, the FDA discourages public comment and dissent, even from well-educated, well-credentialed, and well-experienced individuals, as if their findings and opinions could be imputed to incompetence, inefficiency, and, yes, corruption within the FDA itself.

Three, in managing the approval process where multiple entities are competing in the same marketplace and time is of the essence in terms of first-mover advantage, the FDA may be afraid of appearing biased or being attacked in the media?

FDASCAM

Worst case scenario?

What if conventional, low-cost drugs could have been used for the early treatment of symptomatic COVID-19 individuals?

What if the efficacy of COVID-19 treatments had limited viability and decreased over time?

What if the current treatments have undisclosed or under-reported life-threatening side effects?

What if age- and co-morbidity stratified cohorts were not at extreme risk for developing severe COVID-19 symptoms and forced to accept treatments that carried demonstrably higher risks of serious side effects? Where the untreated population fares better than the treated population? 

What if the major pharmaceutical companies become liable for damages based on misrepresenting data or perpetrating fraud on the public?

Bottom line…

It all comes down to who you can trust in a government preoccupied with gaining or maintaining power and perpetuating the regime’s governance.

What can the public make of a government willing to threaten or punish healthcare professionals if they step beyond government-promoted orthodoxy and adherence to "correct" or accepted narratives?

There are no concrete answers at this time, only inferences, as we ask why the FDA, together with Pfizer and others, are trying to hide the clinical data used in the approval process.

And, it appears that we are about to find out how corrupt our government has become and the social and financial consequences of their treachery and breach of faith.

We are so screwed when we find no pharmaceutical science without pharmaceutical politics.

CANADIAN MOUNTED POLICE: THE REGIME'S NEW ENFORCERS?

How times have changed…

I grew up watching “The Untouchables” featuring Robert Stack as the incorruptible Elliot Ness, thinking that the Federal Bureau of Investigation was incorruptible, heroically and honorably protecting our nation. From court proceedings, documentary evidence, and sworn testimony, it is now apparent that regime politics have demonstrably corrupted the leadership of both the Department of Justice and the FBI.

Likewise, I grew up with Sergeant Preston of the Yukon, featuring Dick Simmons as Canadian Mountie Sgt. Preston as he patrols the wilds of the Yukon with his horse Rex and his faithful dog Yukon King. An incorruptible paragon of honor serving Canadians much like the FBI used to serve American Citizens.

Agtpreston

The Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP), often known as the Mounties, are Canada's federal and national police service, providing law enforcement at the federal level.

Will the Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau Regime do the Mounties what President Obama did to the FBI?

Democracy Dies in Canada: Trudeau Government to Make Some of Their New Authoritarian Measures Permanent

Canadian Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland announced the Trudeau regime’s intention to make some of their new authoritarian powers permanent.

When the Emergencies Act was first invoked on Feb. 14, Freeland explained that the Freedom Convoy’s bank accounts would be frozen: “As part of invoking the Emergencies Act, we are announcing the following immediate actions: First: we are broadening the scope of Canada’s anti-money laundering and terrorist financing rules so that they cover crowdfunding platforms and the payment service providers they use. These changes cover all forms of transactions, including digital assets such as cryptocurrencies.”

In order to strangle the protests financially, Freeland declared: “As of today, all crowdfunding platforms, and the payment service providers they use, must register with FINTRAC [Financial Transactions and Reports Analysis Centre of Canada] and they must report large and suspicious transactions to FINTRAC. This will help mitigate the risk that these platforms receive illicit funds; increase the quality and quantity of intelligence received by FINTRAC; and make more information available to support investigations by law enforcement into these illegal blockades. This is about following the money. This is about stopping the financing of these illegal blockades. We are today serving notice, if your truck is being used in these illegal blockades your corporate accounts will be frozen.”

Freeland said even on Feb. 14 that “the government will also bring forward legislation to provide these authorities to FINTRAC on a permanent basis.” <Source>

Stifling dissent and protecting the regime against legitimate protest…

Essentially, the despotic Trudeau regime is coercing financial institutions, with the threat of regulatory action and massive fines, to take action against the regime’s enemies -- hard-working truckers and others whose lives and livelihoods are being put at risk from mandates NOT backed by science.

This process is insidious and dangerous because the regime requires private financial institutions to freeze or close accounts without due process and indemnifies them from legal action even if they make a mistake that costs untold harm to their customer.

This is a dictatorial power usually seen in Communist China, Russia, North Korea, and other despotic regimes.

Banks have started to freeze accounts linked to the protests, Freeland says

Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland said Thursday financial institutions have moved quickly to freeze the accounts of people linked to the demonstrations in Ottawa, leaving an unknown number of protesters in financial limbo.

Freeland vowed to take more accounts offline in the coming days in an attempt to starve the organizers of the funds they need to continue their occupation of the nation's capital.

Freeland, who is also the finance minister, said the RCMP and other law enforcement agencies have been gathering intelligence on convoy protesters and their supporters and sharing that information with financial institutions to restrict access to cash and cryptocurrency.

The law also allows banks to target for account closure donors to the GoFundMe and the GiveSendGo fundraising campaigns that fueled this protest. Freeland said she wouldn't get into the "specifics of whose accounts are being frozen." <Source>

Uncivil forfeiture?

We have heard numerous accounts of individuals robbed by the authorities on vague suspicions and who have lost millions of dollars in cash and property without ever being charged with a crime. Unfortunately, if the money is ever recovered, it is rarely the amount taken and greatly diminished by attorney's fees and "negotiated" settlements. Not only is this manifestly illegal, unconstitutional, and manifestly unfair, it appears that the politicians, most of whom have legal training, are reluctant to curb abuses as it partially funds government activities without the need to raise taxes.

Trudeau's scheme appears to be little more than Canada's version of civil forfeiture.

Bottom line…

Trudeau is a Marxist and openly admires Communist regimes. This latest ploy is an example of Communist Chinese "State Capitalism"-- where private entities may retain ownership of their assets but must act under state dictates – including the suppression of dissent.

Will the Mounties lose their honor by attacking the very people they serve?

Will the Canadians be as screwed as Americans?

WHICH JUDGE WILL BECOME THE SAVIOR OR A MAJOR THREAT TO DEOCRACY?

COHN

As we have seen over the past years, the most meticulously prepared documentary evidence and sworn testimony mean little when presented to a partisan judge projecting his political ideology…

One need only consider the case against former senior FBI lawyer Kevin Clinesmith who forged an exculpatory email from the CIA noting that Carter Page was WAS affiliated with the CIA when dealing with Russian nationals.

Based on the forgery that claimed Page WAS NOT a CIA asset, the government sought a renewal of a FISA (Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act) domestic spying warrant that became another pretext used to further spy on Trump associates.

Even though Clinesmith pled guilty to "one count of making a false statement within both the jurisdiction of the executive branch and judicial branch of the U.S. government, an offense that carries a maximum term of imprisonment of five years and a fine of up to $250,000," and was responsible for bankrupting Carter Page and destroying his reputation, U.S. District Judge James Boasberg, apparently ignored the grave assault on our democratic system, a fraud on the Court, and the damage done to Page when he sentenced Clinesmith to serve 12 months probation and 400 hours of community service.

FBI lawyer from Russia investigation sentenced to probation for Carter Page FISA warrant false statement

He is the only defendant charged in the Durham investigation, which has looked closely at the FBI's work on the early Russia investigation, including Page's ties to Russia and others with ties to the Trump 2016 campaign.

Clinesmith was sentenced to serve 12 months probation and 400 hours of community service. He pleaded guilty last year to falsifying information in an email that wrongly said Page had not been a CIA source previously, as the FBI sought to renew a foreign surveillance warrant for Page in 2017.

"Anybody who's watched what Mr. Clinesmith has suffered is not someone who would readily act in that fashion," Judge James Boasberg of the US District Court in DC said, somewhat rejecting the Justice Department's argument that Clinesmith receiving a harsh sentence would help deter others from crime and that he was akin to Mueller investigation defendants who lied and went to prison.

Boasberg, who is also the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court's presiding judge, notably said he believes the warrant still may have been signed for surveillance of Page, who in 2017 was a former Trump foreign policy adviser who was under investigation because of his ties to Russians.

"Even if Mr. Clinesmith had been accurate about Dr. Page's relationship with the other government agency, the warrant may well have been signed and the surveillance authorized," Boasberg said, though he also noted other mistakes in the Page foreign intelligence surveillance applications.

Clinesmith obtained no real personal benefit from his actions and had no active intent to harm, the judge also noted.

"My view of the evidence is that Mr. Clinesmith likely believed that what he said about Dr. Page was true," Boasberg said.

"He was saving himself some work taking an inappropriate shortcut," but didn't intend to give wrong information about Page, the judge added.

Boasberg also noted how the Justice Department inspector general found Clinesmith wasn't acting with political bias -- a point the Trump administration tried to make repeatedly to undermine the Mueller investigation that grew out of the FBI's work on Russia in 2016 and 2017. <Source>

Clinesmith was definitely a partisan, as noted by instant messages listed in the report on the FBI by Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz…

“I am numb. I am so stressed about what I could have done differently.”

“I just can’t imagine the systematic disassembly of the progress we made over the last 8 years.”

“We have to fight this again,” “Viva le resistance [sic].”

It gets worse…

Even more egregious than the Judge appearing to act as a special pleader for Clinesmith during sentencing is that Judge Boasberg, also the Presiding Judge of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court, did not undertake evidentiary hearings or seek sanctions for an obvious fraud on the court by the Department of Justice and Federal Bureau of Investigation officials who knowingly filed unsubstantiated documents and made false representations to the Court under oath.

Some suggest that Clinesmith earned his lenient sentence by cooperating with prosecutors -- ludicrous as Clinesmith appeared to lack the type of access required to roll over on top officials.

Bottom line…

With the mainstream media and social media platforms censoring and canceling dissenters and suppressing accurate information, in effect acting as regime propagandists, it all comes down to the prosecution to tell the story to the American public and the judiciary to decide whether we continue to have a republic.

Already evidence exists of a two-tier justice system with some individuals “too big to jail.” We have seen several partisan judges, even on the Supreme Court bench, pushing their partisan agenda even when the Constitution and case law are clearly stated.

To say we are on the precipice and screwed is an understatement. We can only pray that justice will prevail and our republic endures.

IT'S NOT ENOUGH FOR THE GOP TO WIN THE HOUSE & SENATE IN 2022

“We the People” have been betrayed once again by GOP Senators who deliberately failed to attend the vote on Senator Mike Lee’s (R-UT) amendment (#4929) to the continuing resolution (H.R. 6617), which would have defunded Biden’s remaining Covid-19 vaccine mandates

So it is no surprise that the 46-47 party-line vote gave the progressive communist democrats another victory – and an opportunity to advance their toxic unconstitutional totalitarian agenda.

Rino1Four Senate RINO (Republicans In Name Only) Republicans were responsible for the devastating loss.

  • Lindsey Graham (R-SC)
  • Mitt Romney (R-UT)
  • Jim Inhofe (R-OK)
  • Richard Burr (R-NC)

This is why Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) must be replaced if the GOP retakes the Senate majority in 2022. There must be some GOP force in the Senate to hold GOP Senators accountable for their damaging actions.

The obvious replacement for McConnell would generally be the current Majority Whip Senator John Cornyn  (R-TX), the number two in GOP Senate leadership. Unfortunately, Cornyn failed to hold the party together for this vote and is considered a RINO. Also mentioned as a McConnell replacement is another RINO, John Thune (R-SD).

We are so screwed.

OFFICER KIM POTTER: THIS IS NOT JUSTICE, IT'S RACIST PERSECUTION

Police

Why should any police officer put their life, family, and future on the line to protect a community if that same community refuses to protect them from politically-motivated prosecutions brought by a corrupt and racist prosecutor pandering to a specific minority?

There is no doubt that 20-year-old Daunte Wright brought about his own death when he attempted to resist arrest and flee the scene in a motor vehicle which could be construed as a “deadly weapon” that posed a danger to others.

Likewise, from reviewing Body-Cam footage, I believe that former Brooklyn Center police officer Kim Potter made a mistake, albeit a deadly one, when she apparently mistook her gun for a taser. Potter, who is white, shot and killed Wright, who is black, while attempting to take him into custody over a separate, active arrest warrant discovered during the stop.

If anything, Potter should have been censured and removed from the force with any financial responsibility for the mishap accruing to the Police Department.

That Potter was sentenced to two years in prison following a jury's conviction for first- and second-degree manslaughter is a travesty of justice. Even with the Judge’s leniency that provided that Potter "shall serve two-thirds of that time or 16 months in prison and a third of supervised release," the sentence is an affront to all police officers as it should be to all law-abiding members of the community.

The case should have never been brought. And the fact that vocal community activists – as well as the racist Minnesota Attorney General Keith (Keith X) Ellison – threatened the city with the specter of racial violence is deplorable and irrelevant.

Bottom line…

This appears to be an accidental discharge of a weapon without malice or motive. That it involved a white police officer and a black individual during racially troubled times involving another white police officer, Derek Chauvin, and black suspect, George Floyd, should have been enough to suspect the prosecution to be motivated by political concerns rather than justice.

Daunte Wright was no innocent bystander as he had previously been charged with first-degree aggravated robbery. The active arrest warrant at the time of his death was for failing to appear in court for previously fleeing from police and possession of a handgun without a permit.

I am not saying Wright deserved to die, but he brought about his own death.

We are so screwed when we allow our politicians to politicize criminal cases. We need to stand with our police and victims over criminals.

MISDIRECTION FROM THE DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE

It appears that the Biden Administration is attempting to distract the American public from the ravages of increasing inflation, including the shortage of goods and upward spiraling prices, by threatening to prosecute “profiteers.”

Much of the Biden Administration’s rhetoric is Kabuki Theater prior to an election that is meant to misdirect the public’s attention away from the massive domestic and foreign policy failures caused by their ignorant progressive communist democrat agenda.

Initiative Puts Business Community on Notice that the Antitrust Division is Looking Out for Companies that Would Exploit Supply Chain Disruptions to Engage in Anticompetitive Conduct 

In the wake of persistent price increases initially stemming from supply chain disruptions caused by the COVID-19 global pandemic, the Antitrust Division and the FBI announced an initiative today to deter, detect and prosecute those who would exploit supply chain disruptions to engage in collusive conduct. 

“Temporary supply chain disruptions should not be allowed to conceal illegal conduct,” said Assistant Attorney General Jonathan Kanter of the Justice Department’s Antitrust Division. “The Antitrust Division will not allow companies to collude in order to overcharge consumers under the guise of supply chain disruptions.”

“The lingering challenge of supply chain disruptions from the COVID-19 pandemic has created an opportunity for criminals to fix prices and overcharge customers,” said Assistant Director Luis Quesada of the FBI’s Criminal Investigative Division. “The FBI and our law enforcement partners will continue to collaborate and investigate schemes that violate our antitrust laws and stifle our economic recovery.”

As part of the initiative, the Antitrust Division is prioritizing any existing investigations where competitors may be exploiting supply chain disruptions for illicit profit and is undertaking measures to proactively investigate collusion in industries particularly affected by supply disruptions. The Antitrust Division has also formed a working group focusing on global supply chain collusion with its global partners, the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission, the Canadian Competition Bureau, the New Zealand Commerce Commission and the United Kingdom Competition and Markets Authority. The working group is developing and sharing intelligence, utilizing existing international cooperation tools, to detect and combat collusive schemes.  

The Department of Justice is committed to working closely with the public, the business community and other federal agencies to enforce the antitrust laws for the protection and welfare of the American people

[OCS: Does that include union-monopolized operations, the big technology firms which operate platforms critical to business advertising and sales, and the big financial powerhouses that obtain money at near-zero rates and lend it at exorbitant rates which would have been considered usury in earlier times?]

<Source>

What they are not saying…

Much of the supply chain disruptions are not caused by the illicit activities of profiteers. They are the result of:

  • Basic supply and demand economic factors such as government-created inflation where too much gratuitously printed money chase too few goods.
  • Commodity and finished goods price manipulations caused by government tariffs – a tax on domestic consumers to discourage purchasing regulated foreign goods.
  • Rising costs yield rising taxes – which are welcomed by the government without any compensatory tax relief—especially the hidden taxes in utility bills and at the service station pumps.
  • Government policies which restrict or shutter businesses that suddenly are no longer able to function profitably. Consider the decimation of the transportation and hospitality industries or those businesses providing personal services to individuals.
  • Government programs which provide overly generous alternative compensation to those who are incentivized not to work.
  • Government subsidies restrict agricultural production or allow non-market rate price supports.
  • Government programs that demand that billions of gallons of clean water be diverted from agriculture to the ocean to support a worthless garbage fish.
  • Increased shipping traffic caused by disruptions to foreign supply chains which result in companies over-ordering raw materials and finished inventory.
  • Inventory and production problems introduced by disruptions to just-in-time inventory management and production schemes.
  • Increased port handling times caused by arcane and exorbitant union work rules.
  • A lack of trained drivers, especially those who have been fully vaccinated.
  • Legislative restrictions imposed by California’s communist legislature (Assembly Bill 5) which banned independent owner/operator truckers from working even though much of the hauling involved non-union independent owner-operators.
  • Restrictions on the types of vehicles that can enter the port. “The California Department of Motor Vehicles can only register trucks that are in compliance with the Truck and Bus Regulation. The rule calls for the vast majority of trucks, including those that service the ports, to have a 2010 or newer engine by 2023.” By 2035, all vehicles must be electric, even though electric vehicles are inefficient for continuous high-mileage operations.
  • And, let us not forget public policy mandates for certain medications, masks, and other supplies to keep us safe with little or no scientific justification behind the mandate.

Bottom line…

BullshitI much rather see the Department of Justice and the Federal Bureau of Investigation turn inward to clean house of those corrupt and politicized employees that brought about this catastrophe by subverting a presidential election resulting in this unnecessary disruption and devastation to our nation.

I would much rather see the prosecution of corrupt politicians who decimated our energy dependence and substituted unreliable, costly alternatives for cheaper energy.

What we have here is a massive diversion before the mid-term elections and possibly a shakedown to solicit bribes, I mean political contributions, for lobbying and avoidance of prosecutions.

Consider that most of whom the politicians blame for rising prices, like farmers, grocery stores, and energy producers, are low-margin operations – not massive profit centers when all costs and taxes are considered. As for those making a bundle, blame Congress and the tax laws that let mega-corporations off-shore profits and avoid taxes.

Even worse, let us remember all of those settlements where the allegations are neither admitted nor denied – and the consumers and citizens actually bear the cost of any “record” fine.

Remember this when you vote. Elections are not sporting events, the political parties are not teams -- your life and wallet are on the line. No matter what the government says (lies) about inflation or supply chain disruptions, most of them are immune from the day-to-day problems which affect us all, especially with their cushy salaries, perks, privileges, benefits, and no-cut jobs.

We are so screwed when the corruption comes from politicians and their special interest friends who keep them in office.

JUSTICE IS NOT JUSTICE IF IT ONLY APPLIES TO ONE SIDE!

DOES BLM SUPPORT AN ATTEMPTED JEWISH MAYORAL ASSASSIN?

The progressive communist democrats in the Obama and Biden Administration have racially divided our nation to the point where Black Lives Matter openly bails out an alleged political assassin who shot at a Jewish Mayoral candidate in Louisville, Kentucky.

Bailed out by BLM, a communist front group…

Blm-bailout

BLM chapter spends $100K to bail out Kentucky activist charged with attempted murder

The 21-year-old activist charged with trying to murder a Kentucky mayoral candidate has been released from jail after his $100,000 bond was posted by a bail fund supported by the local Black Lives Matter chapter. Quintez Brown’s cash bond was paid Wednesday afternoon by the Louisville Community Bail Fund, which is an arm of Black Lives Matter Louisville, news station WAVE reported.

Brown, who is accused of firing multiple shots inside the Louisville office of mayoral hopeful Craig Greenberg on Monday, walked free from the Metro Department of Corrections just hours later.

BLM Louisville organizer Chanelle Helm, who co-founded the bail fund, told the outlet that Brown would be safer out of prison — and claimed he was likely suffering from PTSD after two years of social unrest and the COVID-19 pandemic.

In this case, we’re dealing with someone that has mental health issues,” Helm said.

Brown, a University of Louisville student who is running as an independent for Louisville’s metro council, has been fitted with an ankle monitor and is being placed on home incarceration ahead of his trial.

<Source>

It was deliberate…

Quintez Brown, a self-proclaimed racial justice activist working for “the total liberation and unification of Africa under scientific socialism,” has been charged in shooting Louisville, Kentucky, Mayoral candidate Craig Greenberg’s office, with bullets narrowly missing Greenberg on Monday. On Tuesday, Brown pleaded not guilty to the charges.

“Quintez Brown, 21, was charged with attempted murder and four counts of wanton endangerment after Greenberg was shot at in his campaign headquarters Monday morning in Butchertown, LMPD spokeswoman Elizabeth Ruoff said late Monday,” the Courier Journal reported.

Gun control advocate…

We are here for common sense gun reform,” Brown said. “If you’re not going to give us that, we’re going to get everyone out here to vote. And, we’re going to vote you out of office and if you want to keep your job give us what not we want but what we need. We need common sense gun reform.”

A potential mass murderer…

Brown, 21, was charged with attempted murder and four counts of wanton endangerment, the Louisville Metro Police Department said. Brown was booked into the Louisville Metropolitan Department of Corrections about 8:30 p.m., records show. WDRB reporter Travis Ragsdale tweeted, “According to court records, Brown was stopped by police a half mile away from Greenberg’s office. He had a loaded 9mm magazine in his pocket and he was carrying a bag containing a Glock and additional magazines.”

Bottom line…

When it comes to Antifa and Black Lives Matter, public safety be damned. If Quintez Brown is truly mentally-ill, as alleged by his attorney, he needs to be in custody, not walking the streets.

If you haven't noticed, the Democrats are now openly taking over the communist front group, BLM, and control over approximately $60 million in ill-gotten corporate cash. 

Recent filings from the Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation have revealed that two close Hillary Clinton associates have taken on key roles within the organization as it continues to suffer a number of blows over its leadership and finances.

According to the Washington Examiner, Democratic lawyer Marc Elias, who previously funded the British ex-spy Christopher Steele’s Trump dossier while he served as Clinton’s campaign general counsel in 2016, now appears to be representing the BLM head organization through his recently formed law firm Elias Law Group.

The New Mexico filing also states that Minyon Moore is a "Board Member" for BLM, with the organization’s California filing listing her as a "Board Member" as well.

Moore was listed as the "Director/President" at Onward Together for the fiscal years of 2017, 2018, and 2019, in documents obtained by the Washington Examiner.
She is listed as a top leader at the Dewey Square Group consulting firm, and has been a longtime associate of the Clintons, including serving as an assistant to President Bill Clinton and as the director of White House political affairs. Afterwards she went on to serve as CEO of the Democratic National Committee.

Shattered: Inside Hillary Clinton’s Doomed Campaign by Amie Parnes and Jonathan Allen addresses the pivotal role that Moore played in Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign, which included serving on the "Super Six" "executive council" alongside Jake Sullivan, Huma Abedin, John Podesta, Robby Mook, and Jennifer Palmieri.
The book describes Moore as a "close Hillary confidante," noting that she helped Clinton plot her 2016 run "from the start." It also states that both Moore and Elias "set up shop" at the campaign’s Midtown office.

Yeah, that Marc Elias -- the man near the center of the Trump/Russia collusion hoax and the subversion of election integrity in battleground states.

IT APPEARS HILLARY CLINTON HAS A NEW "CLINTON FOUNDATION" NAMED BLM!

We are so screwed.

TOP SIX HILLARY CLINTON TACTICS

Over decades we have observed the behavior of Hillary Clinton and the ease at which she seems to deflect the long list of scandals that swirl about her and her associates when in positions of political power.     

Hillary’s six go-to tactics….

TACTIC ONE: DENY, DENY, DENY

Hillary never admits wrongdoing or if she “appears" to take responsibility for something, she has a ready finger to point to someone else.

TACTIC TWO: LYING

It is never about the truth, unless it supports the narrative she is advancing. Hillary is known to be a congenital liar who is capable to controlling her emotions and demeanor for maximum effect and impact.She is appears to be beyond shame and will continue to lie even when confronted with recorded evidence of the facts. Nothing interferes with her agenda and prevailing narrative.

TACTIC THREE: PROJECTION

The most common Hillary distraction tactic is projection, ascribing her behavior to those who oppose her. Often with the use of pejorative labels like "the vast right-wing conspiracy."

TACTIC FOUR: EMPLOY LAWYERS AS ASSOCIATES

Notice that Hillary Clinton almost always employs attorneys in critical positions so that she can capitalize on claiming attorney-client privilege for conversations and documents.

TACTIC FIVE: DELAY

One of Hillary’s best tactics is to simply delay any proceedings beyond the Statute of Limitations. You will notice that whenever confronted about a past scandal, Hillary will claim that the matter has been sufficiently and satisfactorily covered in previous proceedings or the media and is therefore “old news” and not worthy of further discussion.

Statute of Limitations for 18 USC § 1001, False Statements to the U.S. Government

The statute of limitations for bringing charges under 18 U.S.C. Section 1001 is set by 18 U.S.C. Section 3263 at only five years.

Statute of Limitations for Conspiracies and Continuing Offenses

Statutes of limitation “normally begin to run when the crime is complete,” which occurs when the last element of the crime has been satisfied.

The rule for conspiracy is a bit different.  The general conspiracy statute consists of two elements: (1) an agreement to commit a federal crime or to defraud the United States and (2) an overt act committed in furtherance of the agreement.  Conspirators left uninterrupted will frequently continue on through several overt acts to the ultimate commission of the underlying substantive offenses which are the objectives of their plots. Thus, the statute of limitations for such conspiracies begins to run not with the first overt act committed in furtherance of the conspiracy but with the last.

The statute of limitations under conspiracy statutes that have no overt act requirement begins to run with the accomplishment of the conspiracy’s objectives, with its abandonment,  or with the defendant’s effective withdrawal from the conspiracy. 

Concealment of the criminal plot after its completion is considered a natural component of all conspiracies. Consequently, overt acts of concealment after the objectives of the conspiracy have been accomplished may not be used to delay the running of the statute of limitations.  Overt acts of concealment which are among the original objectives of the conspiracy as charged in the indictment, however, may serve as the point at which the statute of limitations begins to run.97 Distinguishing between the two is sometimes difficult.

There are other crimes, which, like conspiracy, continue on long after all the elements necessary for their prosecution fall into place. The applicable statute of limitations for these continuing crimes is delayed if either “the explicit language of the substantive criminal statute compels such a conclusion, or the nature of the crime involved is such that Congress must assuredly have intended that it be treated as a continuing one.”

Statute of Limitations for Perjury Laws

Perjury is covered under 18 U.S.C. Section 1621: Perjury Generally. This states that anyone who has taken an oath in a situation in which oaths can be administered, shall tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. If they willfully do otherwise, making declarations that they do not believe to be true, they will have committed perjury.

The statute of limitations for perjury under federal law is five years.

TACTIC SIX: LAVISHLY REWARD FRIENDS AND RUTHLESSLY PUNISH ENEMIES

To say Hillary Clinton is vindictive and has a long memory of real or imagined slights is to understate the situation by several orders of magnitude. While she can be extremely generous when it suits her purpose, she is also capable of destroying anyone or anything that stands in her way – no matter how innocent the individual or how true the facts may be.

Hillary’s enablers…

One of the primary reasons Hillary Clinton continues to function and has never been held accountable for her actions is that she is surrounded by a dedicated cult-like coterie of acolytes who form her inner circle. A very select group of individuals who associate with one another frequently and are committed to protecting Hillary Clinton, and by extension themselves, from ever being held accountable. Most often mentioned are: media specialist Mandy Grunwald, attorney Cheryl Mills, former Chief of Staff Maggie Williams, policy wonk Neera Tanden, political operative John Podesta,  and “aide” Huma Abedin.

Along with “Team Clinton,” we find a complicit and corporatized mainstream media willing to censor or outright lie to advance a progressive communist democrat agenda. Over the past years, we have seen mainstream media cite anonymous high-level sources said to “have direct knowledge of the situation.” We often find the information was provided by liars and/or leakers with little rank, access, or knowledge -- individuals who are rarely held accountable for their lies even when they cause significant damage.

Pending issues…

  • The Clinton Foundation and foreign money contributions
  • Russian Pay-to-Play Schemes including Uranium One
  • Benghazi and the loss of American lives
  • Emails and the Espionage Act
  • Russia-gate and “The Dossier”

Consider the following recent tweet…

Hc-tweet

We know the scandal is real, not fake, from sworn testimony, documentary evidence, and court proceedings. Hillary's attempts to ascribe her behavior to Trump and Fox News is ludicrous. A classic case of lying and projection.

Bottom line…

Donald Trump’s only crime in the eyes of the Hillary Team is that he stood in the way of the Presidency Hillary coveted. It is unlikely that Obama, Clinton, and Biden will ever be held accountable in a court of law, unlike being judged guilty in the court of public opinion.

The best “We the People” can expect is a full and complete report on the nefarious activities of the Obama and Biden Administrations.

Hillary-wdye

For those wishing to see political spin at its finest, you may want to read Vanity Fair’s bullpucky, “You’ll Never Believe It But Hillary Clinton Did Not, In Fact, Spy On Trump’s White House.”

We are so screwed.

BRYAN SUITS SURVIVES LOS ANGELES, BACK ON SEATTLE AIR AT KTTH

Bryan is back, baby…

SUITSAfter freelance fill-ins and guest appearances, Brian Suits is back on the air with “The Bryan Suits Show,” aired weekday mornings from 6:00-9:00 a.m. on Seattle's regional 50,000-watt conservative station, AM 770 KTTH.

Suits' contentious departure from Los Angeles powerhouse KFI AM 640 left a major gap in informed military and current events coverage on the station -- not to mention Suits' snarky comments billed as "witty repartee." I no longer listen to KFI as they have shifted left and joined the progressive communist democrats.

One wonders if Suits will run up against "content advisories" since his new home is owned by Salt Lake City–based Bonneville International, a broadcasting company owned by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Suits continues on with his own military-themed “Dark Secret Place” on ConnectPal and posts on social media.

Bottom line…

Luckily, I can time-shift Suits’ program using the station’s podcast format, available on most podcast platforms.

We may be screwed, but Bryan tells you who, how, when, and why.
