Like the “one ring” in the lord of the rings, absolute power consumes

1. The stratosphere above politicians is occupied by spooks. They sway and control most of what happens in politics. What happens when tools of tradecraft are used to win elections instead of wars?

      2. Like the “one ring” in the lord of the rings, absolute power consumes and subsumes those who wield it. At some point it becomes bigger than the individual(s), a living, breathing and self-sustaining beast whose only allegiance is self preservation.

      3. This power is so unbridled and yet so nebulous that its practitioners navigate roadblocks to its use by showing probable cause or the possibility of probable cause. They are not denizens of the public eye, anonymity is their uniform.

      4. The UK Govt Communications Headquarters (GCHQ) claimed knowledge in late 2015 of suspicious “interactions” between figures connected to Trump and suspected Russian agents. This intelligence was passed to the US as a routine exchange of information.

      5. Over the next six months, until summer 2016, a number of western agencies shared further information on contacts between Trump’s inner circle and Russians. European countries that passed sigint include Germany, Estonia and Poland.

      6. The “Five Eyes” spying alliance includes the US, UK, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, also relayed material. Did they do the same thing when Hillary and Clinton foundation uranium deals were going down or the Clinton’s were transacting business in Russia and Ukraine?

      7. GCHQ’s then head, Robert Hannigan, passed material in summer 2016 to then CIA chief, John Brennan. The matter was so sensitive it was handled at “director level”. Brennan used GCHQ information and intelligence from other partners to launch a major inter-agency investigation.

      9. Do you remember when right before the 2008 presidential elections passport files of Obama, Hillary and McCain were improperly accessed, several time? No? Did the MSM not highlight that issue with the same zeal as they Trump-Russia collusion?

      12. Who was the CEO of the Analysis Corporation (TAC) when these files were accessed? John O Brennan himself. Now mind you, he was then adviser to Obama on foreign policy and intelligence issues and had actually briefed the media on behalf of the Obama campaign that very month.

      13. So an employee of a private government contractor (TAC) headed by John Brennan whilst he was advising Obma accessed security documents and passports of his candidate and two other opposing Candidates? I want you let that sink in….really deep.

      15. How the hell and why would a TAC employee need to access Obama, Hillary and McCain’s file? Unless of course someone was trying to influence the outcome of the election? And a private contractor is NOT inside the government, no government oversight, a perfect arrangement.

      16. Just a couple of months after his CIA director appointment, Brennan replaced Gina Haspel as the acting head of CIA’s clandestine service with Frank Archibald. Is it mere coincidence that Trump appointed Haspel to replace Brennan?

      17. Rewind back to 1980, when the corpulent yet nebulous Stefan Halper along with George HW Bush was involved in spying on Jimmy Carter’s campaign in an “opposition research” for Regan campaign. Of course VP candidate HW Bush was Director of CIA till 1977
      8. Halper coordinated a 1980 spying campaign along with George H W Bush in which the Reagan campaign obtained classified information about Carter’s foreign policy to ensure Reagan campaign knew of any foreign policy decisions that Carter was considering.…

      20. So, CIA (Brennan) and FBI (Comey) began using Russian meddling in the election as an excuse to have Halper spy on the Trump campaign. A long-time CIA asset who worked for the Nixon administration, Halper was the son-in-law of former CIA Deputy Director Ray Cline.

      22. What are the odds that then Director of CIA would use a CIA asset with ties to MI6 to spy on Trump campaign. And what are the odds that MI6 and UKs GCHQ would claim knowledge of Trump Russia collusion are share that information with CIA and FBI?

      30. But the FBI and CIA were the very originators of the Trump Russia collusion narrative, so why weren't other agencies included? Plus the quality and credibility of these sources weren't adequately described. A predetermined conclusion was the only desirable outcome.
