Believing Adam Schiff’s lies and calling for an “impeachment inquiry” has
to be one of the worst blunders of Speaker Pelosi’s career. The
whistleblower tale has crumbled and the backup witnesses the Democrats are
relying on only confirm the Deep State bureaucrats and Democrats believe
that they, not the elected president, have a lock on executive powers. In
fact, the ploy boomeranged and the spotlight is now on the Democrats’ White
Hope, Joe Biden. Despite the media downplaying Biden’s actions, there is
more to come of his and his party’s corruption.
Whistleblower Won’t Testify
The leaker, incorrectly tagged a “whistleblower,” now doesn’t want to
testify. Instead he wants to give his testimony “by letter,” presumably
from an undisclosed location where no one can test his “testimony.”
Ostensibly this is because he fears for his safety. He is anonymous, so any
claim of “death threats” seems unlikely, although as we show below, we do
have a rather good idea of his identity.
In any event the very notion is preposterous.
It was already ridiculous to think a presidential impeachment, to remove
the most powerful elected political representative of The United States,
could continue based on an anonymous complaint. However, expecting the
same complainant/accuser to remain invisible during the process is so far
beyond nonsensical, the light from where nonsense emanates wouldn’t reach
this narrative for a year.
Yes, feel free to pummel the left-wing nuts based on the absurdity of this
request. Only the most raving Moon bat imaginable would think they could
impeach a sitting U.S. President via a ‘Dear Sir’ complaint letter to
Congress.
These are obviously not stable-minded people.
Oh, please, please, please hold that impeachment vote now. It is more
clear than ever where this nuttery is heading.
If you thought it was delicious to watch the media meltdowns on election
night 2016, just imagine the meltdowns as the media attempts to sell
impeachment via a strongly worded letter of complaint to their resistance
constituents….
Perhaps he could testify via text messages, or… wait, even better… via
tweets. Too damn funny.
The real reason for this backoff, I think, is that once his identity is
confirmed, it will be clear this was a stupid setup by amateurs in Congress
who wanted to cover their tracks. From certain clues reported, online
detectives have winkled out what appears to be his identity.
If they are right, there are a lot of reasons he wouldn’t want to testify.
For one he seems to be involved with those behind the discredited Steele
Dossier. “Billionaire Clinton donor Victor Pinchuk sent MP Bielkova to meet
with him the same day she met with David Kramer and kicked Steele Dossier
operation into high gear.” For another, his association with two members of
Schiff’s staff -- Abigail Grace and Sean Misko -- suggests they cooked up
his story together before sending it off to the Inspector General to
refashion the leaker as a “whistleblower.”
Grace, 36, was hired to help Schiff’s committee investigate the Trump White
House. [snip] Grace worked at the NSC from 2016 to 2018 in U.S.-China
relations and then briefly at the Center for a New American Security think
tank, which was founded by two former senior Obama administration
officials. [snip]
Misko, 37, worked in the Obama administration as a member of the secretary
of state’s policy planning staff under deputy chief of staff Jake Sullivan,
who became Hillary Clinton's top foreign policy official during her 2016
presidential campaign. In 2015, Misko was the director for the Gulf states
at the NSC, remaining there into the Trump administration’s first year.
A source familiar with Grace's work at the NSC told the Washington
Examiner, “Abby Grace had access to executive privilege information, and
she has a duty not to disclose that information. She is not authorized to
reveal that information.”
The same source said that Misko had not been trusted by Trump
appointees. "There were a few times where documents had been signed off for
final editing before they go to the national security adviser for
signature," the source said. "And he actually went in and made changes
after those changes were already finished. So he basically tried to insert,
without his boss' approval.
"There were meetings in which he protested very heavily, and next thing you
know, there's an article in the paper about the contents of that meeting."
[snip]Misko's name surfaced in the Hillary Clinton email controversy when
he worked in the State Department during the Obama administration.
In a Dec. 1, 2009, email released by Judicial Watch, Clinton adviser Huma
Abedin sent classified information regarding foreign military contributions
to the Afghanistan war effort to her private email account. That email
originated with Misko, who wrote to Sullivan that he initially
“accidentally” sent it on the “high side” (secure) but was sending the
email again.
The “whistleblower” -- if the supposition of his identity is true -- is or
was with the CIA and is a fellow on the Atlantic Council, “which has a
business partnership with Hunter Biden’s holding company” the Ukrainian
energy company Burisma. The same tweeter JP also reports that members of
the Atlantic Council include a significant number of anti-Trumpers whom we
are all familiar with:
What do we know about The Atlantic Council members now?
1: Burisma Holdings.2: Sean Misko (Schiff staffer)3: Dmitri
Alperovitch. (The CTO and cofounder of Crowdstrike)4: Victor Pinchuk
(Ukrainian Oligarch/Hillary Funder)..& more Obama/Hillary people than you
can imagine.You know what else is SOOOOO coincidental? That the CTO of
Crowdstrike is ALSO in The Atlantic Council.
Who funds the Atlantic Council? Hunter Biden’s Burisma. The American
Security Council is also a rats’ nest of familiar persons, notes JP:
“Let's look at members of The Center for a New American Century...
CNAS...Members: 1: Abigail Grace (Schiff staffer. Former NSC at WH) 2:
Christopher Heinz. (John Kerry son, Partners with Hunter Biden) 3: Sean
Misko (Schiff staffer. Former NSC at WH)”
Even the “whistleblower’s” attorney, Andrew Bakaj, has a long anti-Trump
history and a connection to the Project on Government Oversight, financed
by George Soros’ Open Society foundation.
Back up Witnesses Before Congress
My online friend “The Infamous Iggy” captured the unifying theme of these
two witnesses best:
The DNC, Pelosi, Schiff, the media, progs in general and even the
bureaucracy and FBI are in some respects a sideshow.
The real issue that ought to either-or-both frighten and enrage any honest
American is that the "Intelligence Community" truly does now consider
itself a law unto itself and has arrogated the power to actually decide who
is a suitable president and who will be allowed to occupy the White House.
The genesis of Russia and the Ukraine has quite plainly been at its root
the IC and especially the CIA.
They have, make no mistake, declared war on self-governance, unless we pick
someone they approve of which is quite obviously not self-governance.
Thankfully the stupid bastards are remarkably incompetent and have been for
decades but they still can, and are, causing a great deal of damage.
So absurd have been the multiple efforts by Democrats to geld the chief
executive that one federal appellate court judge has termed their efforts
violative of the constitutional ban on Bills of Attainder.
Hoping to inject life into a dead horse, Democrats announced two witnesses
this week, both of which are disgruntled former Trump officials and neither
of whom had firsthand knowledge of the phone call that prompted this
nonsense.
Former U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch
The President pulled her from that post in May. She is the ambassador who
didn’t let representatives of the new government of Ukraine have visas to
travel to this country to provide evidence of corruption by Biden and
others in their country.
I suppose her point, and that of the Democrats, is that the executive
powers granted the president are to be negated. The Deep State, once in
place, cannot be removed by an upstart president who disagrees with its
members.
Fiona Hill
Her testimony is due next week. She likewise objected to the president
setting his own foreign policy circumventing the advice of the bloated
(300) membership (Obama’s doing, now trimmed back to the original 100 by
Trump) of the National Security Council and herself. The President’s former
Russian advisor resigned days before the call which so perturbed Adam
Schiff, a call he misrepresented (“parodied”) when the White House
surprisingly revealed the transcript of it. In her case, it seems that once
again that policy differences and turf protection are the issues, not
presidential wrongdoing.
Deep State Corruption in Ukraine is Still Only Partially Revealed
It is my belief, based on information, that the Bidens were not the only
ones who treated Ukraine as a private piggy bank. Obama sent them a billion
dollars and to paraphrase the Bible, he cast bread upon the waters and
Biden and others got back Fig Newtons. Hunter Biden alone received $3.1
million in an 18-month period.
@charliekirk
Hunter Biden’s bank records show that $3.1 million flowed in from the
Ukrainians over an 18 month period
$142,000 was wired from a Ukrainian oligarch
$1.2M came from an LLC connected to a bank with a history of money
laundering
All while his dad steered Ukrainian policy
It seems that Joe Biden may have done well, too:
Rudy Giuliani has alleged that a Ukrainian natural-gas company that
employed Joe Biden’s son Hunter also paid the former vice president
$900,000 in lobbying fees.
Appearing on Fox News’ “Hannity” Wednesday, President Trump’s personal
lawyer cited as evidence claims made by Andriy Derkach, a member of
Ukraine’s parliament. [snip]
“Funds in the amount of $900,000 were transferred to the US-based company
Rosemont Seneca Partners,” Derkach told reporters, referring to the
investment company the younger Biden founded with Chris Heinz, the stepson
of former Secretary of State John Kerry.
“The payment reference was payment for consultative services,” Derkach
said, according to Interfax, a Russian news agency.
He went on to claim Burisma -- according to documents -- paid $16.5 million
to former Polish President Aleksander Kwasnieski, who was chair of
Burisma’s board, Hunter Biden and Devon Archer.
It remains to be seen if Derkach’s claims will be proven, but Biden has a
long history of corrupt dealings. Tom Brokaw first raised this issue in
2008.
I think a thorough investigation will show that money sent to Ukraine to
help develop its natural gas resources were diverted by pro-Russian
Ukrainian officials who sat on it in order to allow Russia to dominate the
natural gas market in Europe (and blackmail it) and disbursed a portion to
the Bidens to pull this off. I also think the Obama Administration was well
aware of this corrupt deal with Hunter Biden.
China
Ukraine was not the only piggybank Hunter tapped into. There was China as
well, and there John Kerry’s stepson, Chris Heinz, joined him.
In 2015, the Aviation Industry Corporation of China teamed up with Bohai
Harvest RST to buy Henniges Automotive, a producer of high-tech
anti-vibration components for automobiles. Bohai Harvest's investment
funding, though "managed" by Hunter Biden and Chris Heinz, had come in
large part from Chinese government interests. So it's stretching the truth
to say a Chinese investment pool "teamed up with" a Chinese company to buy
the components-maker. Really, it was the Chinese buying an American
company.
At a big-bracket investment firm such as Goldman or Morgan, such a
transaction would have had to pass muster through teams of compliance and
due diligence officials. What sort of compliance review do you think
occurred at the so-called private equity firm run by a drug-addicted
ne'er-do-well like Biden or like Kerry's stepson?
Private equity funds tend to charge one or two percent a year on invested
capital plus 20% of profits. Assuming that the fund had a total of $1.5
billion of "assets under management," the lucky fellows were -- and
probably still are -- splitting $15 or $30 million a year.
In both cases, not only do we have the unseemly, certainly corrupt practice
of officials and their children cleaning up on foreign deals obtained
through political connections, but as well there is the stench of these
people undermining U.S. interests for pelf.
But absent Schiff and Pelosi’s dumb and phony “impeachment inquiry” none of
this would have received much attention in the press, which as John Nolte
describes has hit defcon in desperation.
Incidentally, the presidency is not the only branch whose powers the
Democrats want to circumscribe. Democratic Senators Whitehouse, Gilibrand,
Hirono, Blumenthal, and Durbin just filed an amicus brief with the Supreme
Court in a Second Amendment case regarding NYC firearm transport
restrictions.
The brief contained a thinly veiled threat to restructure the Supreme Court
if it decides against the City of New York.
These people keep trying in every way large and small to impose a one-party
autocratic rule over us, even going so far as to ignore the separation of
powers among three constitutional branches of government.
