Will There Be an Obamagate Reckoning? You Betcha!  "Spygate has a new name under the trending Twitter hashtag #ObamaGate. It is being revealed to the public in a slow but systematic fashion, a treasonous plot to undermine a presidential election and subsequent presidency. When that failed, the plot twisted to destroying a duly elected president through leaks, innuendo, and outright lies." . . .

Wait for it...Grassley Demands Answers: ‘What Did Obama And Biden Know And When Did They Know It?’

Grassley also pressed President Obama on the treasure trove of evidence to emerge since the grand collapse of the Russiagate conspiracies. Several new inspector general reports detail abuse of power within the administration and the completion of the Mueller probe that found not one person on the Trump campaign, let alone the president, was operating as a Russian agent.

Barack Obama says there is no precedent for anyone getting away with perjury. He forgot about his buddy Bill Clinton.

Trump's #Obamagate tweets promise the beginning of the end for Obama
. . . "On Saturday, it appears that Trump dropped that other shoe, for that's when he retweeted Jesse Watters's comprehensive breakdown of the Obama team's wrongdoing, in reliance upon a slew of newly released documents from the House Intelligence Committee: . . ."

Also on Monday, news broke that Richard Grenell, the interim director of National Intelligence and one of the most pivotal people in the search for truth, was able to have declassified a list of Obama officials who were part of illegally unmasking General Flynn.  Between this news and Trump's "Obamagate" tweets, if you don't have popcorn, you might want to buy some.  The upcoming political show is about to get exciting.

Barack Obama: The creeper hanging around the arson fires  . . . "There was a time when only the most conspiracy-minded wackos might wonder what the guy knew or what kind of pictures he had to get himself sacked like that. But Mr. Obama and his shameless henchmen at the most powerful levers of the federal government have forced the wildest conspiracies into the mainstream.

"Who, after all, would have ever predicted that an outgoing president would launch a sprawling espionage campaign to spy against a political enemy running for the presidency? At the spear-point of that fraudulent, dishonest and undemocratic operation was Michael Flynn." . . .

Remember the good old days when the outgoing Clinton administration vandalized the White House as they left? They ripped off all the “W” keys from White House computer keyboards, in a slap at incoming President George W. Bush. As with everything he touched, Mr. Obama took such pedestrian partisan punking and weaponized it beyond comprehension.

Asian-American Reporter Implies Trump Is Racist And The Anti-American Media Run With It

More important than corruption in our election system, than conservatives being forbidden to speak publicly, than Democrat politicians calling for Trump supporters be harassed in public places is the love white people have for orange chicken, rice, and soy sauce.

The Federalist
The racism narrative overshadowed the much more important point reporter Weijia Jiang highlighted, which is the media's consistent defense of China and downplaying of American exceptionalism.

"The media establishment has become an absolute clown show, with CBS News White House correspondent Weijia Jiang cast as the ringleader during Monday’s press briefing circus. Instead of asking President Donald Trump any relevant question as a means to better inform Americans amid the pandemic, Jiang opted for grandstanding with a question about as frivolous as the infamous “Is Chinese food racist?”

“ 'You’ve said many times that the U.S. is doing far better than any other country when it comes to testing. Why does that matter?” Jiang asked. “Why is this a global competition to you if every day, Americans are still losing their lives, and we’re still seeing more cases every day?” 

“ 'Well, they’re losing their lives everywhere in the world,” Trump responded. “And maybe that’s a question you should ask China. Don’t ask me, ask China that question, OK? When you ask them that question, you may get a very unusual answer.”

"To Media, All Asians Are Apparently the Same

"Trump is right to frame the U.S.’s pandemic gains in light of China’s failures, the same way the president was justified in doubling down on accurately terming COVID-19 the “Chinese virus.” This is not only because of American exceptionalism and communist China’s egregious cover-ups and propaganda efforts, but also because of U.S. media’s willingness to prop up the Communist Party of China at every turn as a glowing example of coronavirus response. But when Trump turned to call on a different reporter, Jiang just couldn’t leave her inane question alone." . . .

Why is Obama Panicking Now? – The Importance of Understanding Political Surveillance In The Era of President Obama…

The Last Refuge

"Why is former President Obama calling forth all his defensive resources now?  Why did former national security advisor Susan Rice write her cya letter?  Why have republicans in congress not been willing to investigate the true origins of political surveillance?  What is the reason for so much anger, desperation and opposition from a variety of interests?

"With the release of recent transcripts and the declassification of material from within the IG report, the Carter Page FISA and Flynn documents showing FBI activity, there is a common misconception about why the intelligence apparatus began investigating the Trump campaign in the first place.  Why was Donald Trump considered a threat?

"In this outline we hope to provide some fully cited deep source material that will explain the origin; and specifically why those inside the Intelligence Community began targeting Trump and using Confidential Human Sources against campaign officials." . . . Keep reading...

OPINION: As Biden Struggles, Hillary Might Be The Democrats’ ‘Nominee Of Last Resort’

AnalyzingAmerica

"Hillary Clinton could possibly step into the position of Democratic nominee should Joe Biden fail.
"According to The Hill, Establishment Democrats put forward Joe Biden because he was the “safe” candidate.
"A recent poll shows that Joe Biden appears to be failing. An Emerson College poll showed 57 percent of likely voters think President Trump will win reelection in November. The Emerson Poll also shows Trump supporters 19 points more enthusiastic about their candidate than Biden supporters.
"According to the poll, Bernie supporters are more open to voting for a third-party candidate rather than Joe Biden.
"The Biden campaign’s tepid fundraising is a red flag, in comparison to Trump’s $187 million advantage.
"On top of that, Joe Biden is in the midst of a sexual assault scandal, where his former staffer, Tara Reade came forward with claims of malfeasance.
"It’s possible that Biden chooses Clinton as his running mate, and Clinton spent the last few months she has conducted endless interviews to ramp up her consideration."

President Obama Declares “There Is No Precedent That Anybody Can Find” For The Flynn Motion [He May Want To Call Eric Holder]

While people of good faith can certainly disagree on the wisdom or basis for the Flynn motion, it is simply untrue if President Obama is claiming that there is no precedent or legal authority for the motion.

Jonathan Turley: Western Journal

Jonathan Turley  "Former President Barack Obama is being quoted from a private call that the “rule of law is at risk” after the Justice Department moved to dismiss the case against former national security adviser Michael Flynn. Obama reportedly told members of the Obama Alumni Association that “There is no precedent that anybody can find for someone who has been charged with perjury just getting off scot-free.”  Without doubting the exhaustive search referenced by President Obama, he might have tried calling one “alum”: former Attorney General Eric Holder.  Holder moved to dismiss such a case based on prosecutorial errors in front of the very same judge, Judge Emmet Sullivan. [Notably, CNN covered the statements this morning without noting the clearly false claim over the lack of any precedent for the Flynn motion]
"The Obama statement is curious on various levels.  First, the exhaustive search may have been hampered by the fact that Flynn was never charged with perjury. He was charged with a single count of false statements to a federal investigator under 18 U.S.C. 1001. I previously wrote that the Justice Department should move to dismiss the case due to recently disclosed evidence and thus I was supportive of the decision of Attorney General Bill Barr.

"Second, there is ample precedent for this motion even though, as I noted in the column calling for this action, such dismissals are rare. " . . . 

Prof. Turley wrote this for The Hill on use of the Logan Act to prosecute Flynn:

Logan Act is the last refuge for the American prosecutorial scoundrel

Keep in mind that using the Logan Act against the incoming White House national security adviser would be not only patently unconstitutional but also positively ludicrous. There was nothing illegal in Flynn responding to diplomats upset about sanctions imposed on Russia days before the new administration. Trump himself stated that he wanted to reframe relations with Russia. The transcripts show Flynn encouraging the diplomats not to retaliate and saying that the administration would look at the situation.

And we know there are scoundrels aplenty in the Democrat Party. Recall the role of scoundrels facing Professor Turley in the Judge Kavanaugh confirmation hearings:
Constitutional Expert Testifies 'I Voted Against Trump,' Then Demolishes Impeachment

“I’m concerned about lowering impeachment standards to fit a paucity of evidence and an abundance of anger,” Turley said. “I believe this impeachment not only fails to satisfy the standard of past impeachments but would create a dangerous precedent for future impeachments.”

Obama reveals himself as an appalling legal ignoramus  . . . "Obama verbally worried about “the rule of law” to his 3000 closest friends on the call.  This is utter projection, a nearly universal practice on the left of accusing opponents of the tactics they use. As the Journal editorialized:

We doubt Mr. Obama has even read Thursday’s Justice Department motion to drop the Flynn prosecution. If he does ever read it, he’ll find disconcerting facts that certainly do raise doubts about whether “our basic understanding of rule of law is at risk,” though not for the reasons he claims.  . . .

. . . "Thanks to the work of the unflappable Sidney Powell, Flynn’s new attorney, and the decision of Attorney General William Barr to release documents that the FBI had been hiding since the general was charged, in just the past few days we have learned the leadership of the bureau inherited from the Obama Administration had planned to trap Flynn in a lie and to get him arrested and/or fired.
"They were not interested in investigating a crime, but in engineering the removal of the most powerful national security official in government outside of the president.
"As the Trump adviser most experienced in national security issues who, as the former director of the Defense Intelligence Agency, was intimately familiar with how the Obama Administration had weakened America, and who would uncover the illegal counterintelligence operation to spy on the Trump campaign, Flynn had to be removed.
"Most heinous of all, the case against Flynn was set to be closed two weeks before the 2017 inauguration because, of course, he was innocent and the uncorrupt agents who had worked the case found no evidence of “Russian collusion.” . . . More...

Obama and "The Rule of Law"

Rule of law? Since when does prosecutorial misconduct of the worst kind merit not dropping a tainted case? Bad cases based on this reason are thrown out all the time, (just ask former California prosecutor Kamala Harris, whose cases stand to be thrown out wholesale based on prosecutorial misconduct).

"Obama is panicking" by Monica Showalter   "After seeming years of silence, and plenty of billionaire vacays, President Obama is on the warpath. Here's what the Washington Post is reporting:

Former president Barack Obama shared deep worries Friday about the Justice Department’s decision to drop its prosecution of ex-national security adviser Michael Flynn, telling old aides on a call that “our basic understanding of rule of law is at risk,” according to a recording obtained by Yahoo News and confirmed by an Obama spokesperson.

Obama also appeared to slam the Trump administration’s response to the coronavirus pandemic as an “absolute chaotic disaster,” offering the sort of blistering criticisms he has rarely aired in public. Obama said shortly before President Trump took office that he would only weigh in on his successor’s actions when he believes “our core values may be at stake.”

"Obama was speaking to something called the "Obama Alumni Association," a real nod to the faculty lounge, but in reality, a likely flying monkey corps waiting for activation, the leaked phone call just the first step.

"Rule of law? Since when does prosecutorial misconduct of the worst kind merit not dropping a tainted case? Bad cases based on this reason are thrown out all the time, (just ask former California prosecutor Kamala Harris, whose cases stand to be thrown out wholesale based on prosecutorial misconduct). Anybody who's going to prosecute others has got to be damn clean or the system loses credibility. For Obama to 'warn' about rule of law, as if that were something he ever cared about before this, is disingenuous. It's also projecting, a typical passive-aggressive Obama maneuver to say the least. That Obama arranged for this leak, under cover of 'private conversation' is simply a joke.

Adam Schiff lied about the Trump investigation — and the media let him

NY Post

"Last week, Acting Director of National Intelligence Richard Grenell forced Democratic Congressman Adam Schiff’s hand. If the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee didn’t release the transcripts of 53 interviews from the committee’s Russia collusion investigations, then he’d do it himself. The transcripts, many of them from nearly three years ago, were declassified and ready for public viewing since June.

"As the grand impresario of collusion, Schiff has filled print and broadcast media since January 2017 claiming that he has seen “more than circumstantial evidence” of a Trump-Putin conspiracy. Obviously there was none in the transcripts, or he’d have pulled back the curtain years ago. But Schiff didn’t want to hand control of the narrative to one of Trump’s most effective deputies, so on Thursday they finally went live.

"They show exactly what you’d expect them to show: None of the former Obama administration officials who took to the airwaves immediately after Trump’s election to claim collusion had any evidence of it.

" 'Here’s Obama’s director of national intelligence, and CNN analyst, James Clapper: “I never saw any direct empirical evidence that the Trump campaign or someone in it was plotting/conspiring with the Russians to meddle with the election.

"Former Pentagon official and now candidate for New York’s 17th Congressional District Evelyn Farkas claimed in a notorious 2017 MSNBC segment that she advised her colleagues to disseminate intelligence so that Trump could not destroy evidence of collusion. Under oath, however, she testified she “didn’t know anything” about Trump staff dealing with Russians." . . .

Gowdy Names Reporters Who Helped 'Peddle' Schiff Leaks During Russia Investigation  . . . “Let’s just start with Politico and anyone not named Rachael Bade,” Gowdy said. “She was the only reporter that I dealt with that was fair. Kyle Cheney is just an acolyte for Adam Schiff.”

He continued: “Manu Raju from CNN–Nothing Schiff wanted out, made public — no leak was too low for Manu Raju and CNN.”
. . . ""The media, not only did they not provide scrutiny over Adam Schiff, they aided and abetted him," Gowdy told Fox News' Sean Hannity. "Politico, the Hill, Washington Post, New York Times, I'll come on and even give you the reporters' names sometime. The reporters who sat there and helped Adam Schiff perpetrate this fraud, next time I'm with you I'll give you the names of the reporters."

Adam Schiff’s pathological lying heart of darkness  "Now that the wholly-fabricated case against Gen. Michael Flynn has been dismissed and the 53 transcripts of 73 witnesses who were called to testify against President Trump on Russia collusion have been released, the scope of Adam Schiff’s treachery is more clearly than ever blowing up in his face. " . . . 

. . . To be sure, Schiff has friends in high places.  His original run for Congress was underwritten by David Geffen,  Michael Ovitz and the “gay mafia” at Dreamworks.  He is aligned with George Soros and Soros’s MoveOn.org.  He has ties to Ukraine as well, in particular to Igor Pasternak under whose influence Schiff began lobbying for arms and money for Ukraine.  In November 2019, Ukraine officials launched an investigation into a $7.4 billion money laundering scheme connected to the Democrat party, Franklin Templeton and BlackRock firms, both companies in which Schiff held shares. This information and much more is from a Medium column January 24, 2020, The Power Brokers Behind Adam Schiff.

US Rabbis Rip Biden Over Funding Palestinian Terror: ‘Every American Should Be Outraged’

United with Israel
"The Coalition for Jewish Values slammed the presidential candidate for saying if elected he would restore American aid payments to the Palestinians, which they use to pay terror salaries."

U.S. Vice President Joseph Biden (L) with Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas, March 10, 2010

     "The American group Coalition for Jewish Values (CJV), which represents over 1,500 traditional rabbis, called on Sunday for Senator Joe Biden to back down from his statement that if elected president he would resume giving American foreign aid to the Palestinian Authority, which continues to pay salaries to convicted terrorists and their families.
     "The rabbis also demanded Biden take back his claim that Israeli annexation of Jewish communities in Judea and Samaria would “jeopardize a two-state solution.”
     " 'Every American should be outraged,” said Rabbi Dov Fischer, Western Regional Vice President of the CJV. “Joe Biden has just said he would break US law to do something which is also, of course, morally repugnant — to re-involve the American taxpayer in incentivizing terrorism against innocent Americans like Taylor Force and others.”
     "Force was the American veteran who was murdered by a Palestinian terrorist in 2016 while in Israel as part of his MBA program. The Taylor Force Act was passed by Congress with bipartisan support in 2018 and requires the Palestinians to stop their “pay to slay” program in order to continue receiving foreign aid from the United States.
     "The Palestinian Authority has spent over $1 billion to date in cash payments to Palestinians in Israeli jails convicted of attacks against Israelis, and to the families of Palestinian terrorists killed during attacks against Israelis and other foreign nationals including Americans like Force.
     "PA President Mahmoud Abbas has refused to do so, saying that killed and imprisoned murderers are “the most sanctified” and that “If we are left with one penny, we will spend it on the families of the prisoners and martyrs.' ” . . . By Yakir Benzion, United With Israel

Be Warned, Coronavirus Snitches: You Too May Be Snitched On; St. Louis tattlers discover their complaints about open businesses are public records.

Reason

The Reason Foundation (which publishes this site) recently released a working paper that tries to avoid these anger-inducing one-size-fits-all responses and focus instead on containing infection clusters. Patricia needs to keep herself safe, but that doesn't mean those businesses she saw needed to be closed in order to achieve that goal.

"Hundreds of St. Louis citizens who snitched to the government about businesses that defied closure orders are discovering that their messages are not confidential and their identities are subject to sunshine laws.

"As part of the effort to slow the spread of the coronavirus, some city and state leaders have forced businesses they deem "nonessential" to shut down. St. Louis County encouraged people to report any such businesses that are still open via an online form.

"The county received more than 900 complaints. And the complaints, apparently, were not anonymous. Indeed, they're public records subject to the state's sunshine laws. Now people who are angry at the extent and duration of government shutdown orders are using those laws to expose the people who filed the complaints.

"KSDK, a local NBC affiliate, reported in late April that a man named Jared Totsch received a copy of these tipsters' records and shared them on Facebook. When a KDSK reporter reached out to him to point to him that these tipsters are now worried about retaliation, Totsch responded that was partly the point.

Jonathan Turley Rips Apart Obama’s ‘Leaked’ Statement About the DOJ and Flynn, and It’s Glorious

RedState  "As my colleague streiff reported earlier, a “private call” from former President Barack Obama just happened to be leaked to Michael Isikoff.

"Strange, isn’t it, how this leak parallels leaks during the Russia investigation that also went to Isikoff with information seemingly meant to undermine Donald Trump? The same reporter who was leaked to about Carter Page. Almost as if there’s a pattern there that we’re seeing once again.

"On the call that obviously was private and not at all staged to be leaked, Obama said he was concerned that the “rule of law is at risk” after what he called the unprecedented move of the Justice Department dismissing the charges against Gen. Michael Flynn.

"From Yahoo News:

“The news over the last 24 hours I think has been somewhat downplayed — about the Justice Department dropping charges against Michael Flynn,” Obama said in a web talk with members of the Obama Alumni Association.

“And the fact that there is no precedent that anybody can find for someone who has been charged with perjury just getting off scot-free. That’s the kind of stuff where you begin to get worried that basic — not just institutional norms — but our basic understanding of rule of law is at risk. And when you start moving in those directions, it can accelerate pretty quickly as we’ve seen in other places.”

"What utter gall."
