Joe Biden has proven to be a puppet of the Chinese, Russian, and Ukrainian oligarchs—a true Manchurian Candidate. Hunter Biden, Joe Biden’s princeling, raked in millions of dollars at arm’s length from Uncle Joe for the Biden crime family from adversaries for no credible business reason. Why?
The purpose was to gain access to Joe Biden for favorable policy decisions and actions, i.e., going soft on China and Russia, releasing funds to the Iranian Mullahs whose proxies attack Israel, selective prosecution of political enemies, and allowing a two-tiered justice system.
It’s become clear in the past three years that a whole cadre of domestic and foreign adversaries all engaged in or aided and abetted in a coup to unseat a duly elected President and to prevent his reelection. The list includes the World Economic Forum (WEF); the globalists; the World Health Organization (WHO); the Marxist left; self-dealing and corrupt politicians, including President Joe Biden, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, President Barack Obama; the Deep State including the DOJ, FBI, CIA, DNI, DHS and others; the leftist media complex; big pharma; big tech; and multinational corporations.
Facts show that the Biden and Clinton families are criminal enterprises as defined in the RICO Act. The families conspired with others, both foreign adversaries and domestic operatives, for their personal gain or benefit to undermine and even sabotage the best interest of the American people and America’s national security interests, including using election fraud.
The DOJ, FBI, CIA, and others targeted Donald Trump, Hillary’s opponent in the 2016 election, by making up espionage claims to secure FISA surveillance warrants and then retargeting the espionage investigations to spy on Trump. This continued with the bogus Russian Collusion narrative. In 2020, they had the temerity to claim Hunter’s laptop was the product of Russian disinformation when they knew otherwise.
The FBI currently possesses a laptop that belonged to DNC staffer Seth Rich, who was murdered in DC shortly before the 2016 election. The FBI has twice failed to comply with a federal court order to release the laptop’s information. Shades of Hunter’s laptop. What are they hiding now?
To cover for the Democrat collective’s illegal acts, the Biden administration, via the DOJ and FBI, is using lawfare, in the form of malicious and selective prosecution, and vexatious civil litigation to target Trump to make it impossible for him to be a viable in the 2024 election. The federal government has self-evidently coordinated closely with state prosecutors. These cases, in chief, lack merit and use convoluted stretches of the law.
The J6 “insurrection that wasn’t“ was a Democrat effort to entrap and delegitimize Trump and his supporters and to disqualify Trump’s candidacy. Evidence shows that then-Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi, spearheaded the plan by limiting security at this significant political event and then leading the impeachment against Trump for leading and inciting an insurrection, which she followed with a show trial (the illegitimate J6 Special Committee).
That committee, without due process, referred Trump to the DOJ for criminal prosecution. Several states followed suit to remove Trump from the ballot based on the J6 Committee’s findings. The DOJ and several states then indicted Trump for bogus criminal actions, i.e., falsely claiming the 2020 election was rigged. There is a growing body of evidence supporting the claim that there was election fraud. Furthermore, questioning the results of an election is protected political free speech.
Because of the consequences if he’s found guilty, the most serious charge against Trump is that he violated national security by taking classified documents from the White House. In fact, there is no underlying crime in the Presidential Records Act (PRA), which the DOJ bootstrapped into a criminal charge of obstruction of justice.
Special Prosecutor Jack Smith, in his latest filing, admits that the PRA does not apply. Instead, Smith is alleging Trump illegally possessed classified documents under the Espionage Act 18 USC § 793(e) when his term of office ended. The search warrant for Mar-a-Lago cites these crimes as the basis for the warrant: willful retention of national defense information, concealment or removal of government records, and obstruction of federal investigation. Smith goes to great lengths to say that Trump never declassified records using the methods described in these acts or EOs before he left office and, indeed, implies that Trump never declassified anything.
All these charges are ludicrous. The PRA, other acts, and Executive Orders such as EO 13526 are advisory to a sitting President. Presidents are free to act as they wish:
The sitting President is categorically exempt from these laws and administrative policies regarding classified documents, including nuclear, under the absolute or plenary powers of Article II of the US Constitution (See discussion Navy v. Eagan), including being barred from holding office as touted by the media.
In line with federal law, Kash Patel, a high-ranking official in the Trump Administration, said, “. . .Trump declassified whole sets of materials in anticipation of leaving government that he thought the American public should have the right to read themselves [My emphasis added].” See also this excellent summary by Kash Patel.
An important question is whether Jack Smith’s frantic press is about more than knocking Trump off the ballot. What if Trump were compiling documents while still in office that would prove the illegal actions in which the various Democrat enterprises (the DOJ, FBI, DNC, etc.) had engaged to unseat him as sitting President? Why would Trump follow the procedures for declassifying documents in these Acts or EOs when doing so would expose the hypothetical strategy to the conspirators? There is nothing like telegraphing your hand to your enemies.
Contrary to what Smith implied, one of Trump’s last acts as president, using a Presidential Memoranda he ordered published in the Congressional Record, was to declassify the binder containing information on the Russian Collusion narrative. The DOJ and FBI let the clock run out on Trump’s term, effectively violating his order. Trump also ordered the declassification of the transcript of the call with Ukrainian President Zelenskyy. Trump ordered the release of transcripts of notes of James Comey and surveillance information related to Carter Page to “show anti-Trump bias at the highest levels of the FBI.”
My professional opinion as a criminal investigator is that Trump was investigating officials and agencies subordinate to him for potential illegal or seditious acts in order to hold the Administrative State accountable. The Democrats’ raid on Mar-a-Lago was to recover any copies of the Russian collusion binder or incriminating documents that Trump still possessed. Also, this raid was a warning to others who would seek to expose the government’s criminal activity by reminding them that the Administrative State can retaliate by using a flagrant and unaccountable abuse of power.
After the raid, the FBI didn’t disclose anything incriminating. Instead, it released photos staged for public consumption showing empty file folders spread on the floor with classified markings, along with carefully placed boxes. It’s entirely possible the FBI did not find what it was looking for.
If it’s ever released, the binder will expose the Democrats’ criminal activity. It’s likely to touch on every power player: President Biden and his operatives, former President Barack Obama, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, former Director of the CIA John Brennan, former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, former Director of the FBI James Comey, the current Director of the FBI Christopher Wray, and others.
Our federal law enforcement and intel agencies—the DOJ, FBI, and CIA—have gone rogue. They are an American Stasi, flagrantly violating the People’s fundamental civil rights to support the administrative state. As Lt. Col. Grossman says in his analogy to sheepdogs who guard the flock from wolves, “Any sheepdog who intentionally harms the lowliest little lamb will be punished and removed. The world cannot work any other way, at least not in a representative democracy or a republic such as ours…”
Accountability to the Constitution of those who govern for the people must be restored lest we descend further into a totalitarian Banana Republic.
Laura noted that Russia and Iran are threatening to wipe out a sovereign country. True. But why does the world not react to these threats and find ways to defuse such thoughts? Instead, the Muslim majority is leading the way to a destruction of all non-Muslim countries by the Trojan horse of Moslem immigration and plain trespassing (especially in the USA) immigration laws with no or little restraint. Obama-Biden have especially encouraged Iran and helped it to become the number one enemy of all humanity.
@Felix I understand your thought.
This was written in the New Yorker in 2016 election year and should also be considered. I am presuming that Trump was echoing all Republican supporters

Three weeks ago, hundreds of American scientists, including dozens of Nobel Prize winners, signed a different public letter, this one stating that irreversible global warming is now under way owing to the burning of fossil fuels, no matter what politicians like Trump choose to believe. “During the Presidential primary campaign, claims were made that the Earth is not warming, or that warming is due to purely natural causes outside of human control,” the letter stated. “Such claims are inconsistent with reality.” Urgent action is necessary to avoid catastrophe, the scientists warned.

“More than two dozen members of Congress have been indicted since 1980”

@Raphael, I think your ideas on how to fix the mess we are in are very constructive.
One thing that will be very important going forward. There will have to be a law put in place to ensure that our federal government acts with COMPLETE TRANSPARENCY. When information is sought by Congress, any employee who does not respond with the information should be fired.
The classification system needs to be revamped.
The surveillance state that developed after 9/11 needs to be completely re-done. There were individuals involved in developing the computer programs at the time, who knew how to ensure that US citizens were not included in the surveillance, but the head of NSA and President George Bush refused to put in place those safeguards. Then Obama decided to use the surveillance to focus selectively on his political rivals: the Tea Party, conservatives, Donald Trump and his supporters, etc. That is when Brennan and Clapper put hundreds of Article III judges under surveillance, many CEOs, even Supreme Court Justice John Roberts and others. Members of Congress were surveilled. All of this was done with an eye towards bribery in order to get control of the country’s legal system. This was a big part of how the country was hijacked.
The supercomputer system involved was The HAMMER. The surveillance on conservative Americans and those involved in the legal system enabled the coup which took place.
It started in the Obama DOJ, it involved counterintelligence, and eventually involved the Intelligence Community writ large.
Now we have an “all of society” plan to censor Americans and try to control the information to which Americans have access.
All of this will need to be taken apart, and those involved in developing and carrying out these actions should be charged with treason and their cases adjudicated in tribunals.
What I am thinking about is the need for decentralization. All of the pain our government has caused us is due to centralization of power. This concentration of power has led to complete corruption of all institutions.
What is needed is a complete re-organization of the federal government, giving power back to states and localities, resulting in a much smaller federal government.
The progressive era which built up the Leviathan state will have to end, with the Leviathan state being dismantled into a few small, but effective agencies which will not have rule making power over citizens but will act as consultants to our citizens. The rule making power should go back to Congress.
Speaking of Congress: there needs to be reform there as well. All members of Congress who have been involved in lying to Americans, creating laws that are harmful to Americans and never telling Americans about it should be brought to justice. This is treasonous behavior. If members of Congress are brought to justice and convicted of treason for betraying their constituents, it might deter future Congressmen and women. I think our citizens know which of their representatives have betrayed them, and the referral to tribunals of Representatives and Senators should be made by the citizens of this country.
All of this is jaw-dropping…and true. So, what can be done? We cannot hope to legislate our way out of this mess, or depend on law-enforcement and the courts to rectify the situation. They are corrupt. They are the problem, not the solution. Something out of the ordinary MUST occur.
If Trump can get elected, with a strong mandate, (and a fair election is far from certain), I suggest that in the first days of his term, he lay out the case before the American people to show that the nation has indeed been high-jacked. Then, he should declare a “national emergency” to clean out and re-organize rogue government agencies, and to limit the actions of corporations and private individuals suspected of seditious, unconstitutional, or criminal activity.
To accomplish this, a “commission of recovery” should be appointed, to consider the charges, hear testimony, render decisions, and order penalties, as deemed appropriate. The currently established court system would have no power to over-rule or to interfere with the commission’s work, nor would they themselves have any immunity.
Extreme care must be taken to appoint people who are highly qualified and who have the highest integrity. They must also be people who are, by necessity, strict constitutionalists, and who hold to traditional moral and cultural values.
The committee’s judgments should be swift and unequivocal. Once the bad apples have been dealt with, the system can then be carefully put back together again, with safeguards, and the state of emergency gradually lifted. The process must not drag out for a long time. A target date to end the state of emergency should be set. In this way, we can set things right again, assuring ourselves of a more perfect republic.
Can Trump find a way to publish all this assumed material if he, by some happenstance, is not elected? It seems that he would have to publish from abroad because the deep state would find ways and mean means to make sure under threat of “unusual punishment under the official secrets act” or similar to ensure that it never sees the light of day in USA.
So, if he is not elected, the Trump story can only move on to the epilog.
Israel will need to find new friends…
