Close Quarter Political Combat

I missed this article in PJ Media when it came out four days ago. It gives an example of desperate close quarters combat and a summation of the Trump-Clinton-Obama tiff that is s thing of beauty. Trump doesn't attack the extremities seeking to weaken his opponent, he goes much deeper than that.
The most singular thing about Donald Trump's wiretap accusation against Barack Obama is how he's refusing to play the game of extremities — losing a Flynn here and getting a Sessions paralyzed there — and getting right into lethal range. Trump's gone right past Schumer, ignored the surrogates and gone straight for the former president himself.
Once elected, Trump gives Hillary a pass on her criminal activities and the Democrats thought it was a sign of weakness. They pile on Trump by attacking his Cabinet choices, fatally wounding National Security Advisor Michael Flynn and harassing AG Jeff Sessions. In return, Trump does not go after Democratic flunkies, he goes right for Obama's throat.

He accuses Obama of criminal activity while he was President. Now Obama has a different problem to tackle and Trump is in a position where he cannot back off. He must kill Obama politically.
This escalation represents a real threat to Obama. Suddenly everything is out of control. Nobody would have minded much if Trump had gone after one of Obama's henchmen — which is probably what was expected — but none can foresee how an exchange of blades between principals will end. It is safe to say, however, that unless the combatants disengage, someone will get hurt. It will be a terrible moment for American political civility when a king lies on the political floor. The whole point of a peaceful transition of power is to prevent a clash between kings. Yet the very tragedy the electoral process is intended to prevent is happening before our eyes.
Obama and his minions are evil, traitorous slime. Trump needs to end them. I trust he will.

More CIA Deep State Stuff

Oh goody, I stumbled across another rabbit hole. The Vault 7 WikiLeaks leaks are yielding a surprising amount of fruit.
WikiLeaks released Vault 7, a slew of CIA files on surveillance and hacking, encrypted with the password “SplinterItIntoAThousandPiecesAndScatterItIntoTheWinds”, a phrase that President John F. Kenndy used a month prior to his assassination. Kennedy hated the CIA.

Speaking in a History Channel documentary years ago, Samuel Halpern, author of “The Assassination of JFK,” claimed that the threat against JFK’s life stemmed from Kennedy’s frustration with the CIA, which he believed was becoming a “state within a state.”

It's an interesting read, especially since the 40,000 documents pertaining to the Kennedy assassination must be released to the public this October. Supposedly there are 3,600 documents that have never been released. After fifty some odd years, it's time.
A special team of seven archivists and technicians with top-secret security clearances has been set up at the National Archives and Records Administration to process all or portions of 40,000 documents that constitute the final collection of known federal records that might shed light on the events surrounding JFK’s murder, POLITICO has learned — files that, according to law, must be made public by October 2017.

But the records’ release is not guaranteed, says Martha Murphy, head of the National Archives’ Special Access Branch. While the JFK Records Act of 1992 mandated the files be made public in 25 years, government agencies that created the paper trail can still appeal directly to the president to keep them hidden. And some scholars and researcher not to mention the army of JFK conspiracy theorists, fear that is exactly what will happen given the details about the deepest, darkest corners of American spy craft that could be revealed — from three inner workings of the CIA’s foreign assassination program and front companies to the role of a CIA psychological operations guru accused of misleading congressional investigators about alleged assassin Lee Harvey Oswald’s activities.

Does the iPhone Bluetooth Blab?

I was talking to my daughter this morning and she brought up a troubling subject. She stated that she was puzzled by something that her iPhone Bluetooth app may be doing. Recently she was talking with her roommates about a subject, overweight males, and a little bit later she starting receiving ads in her favorite apps for swim suits (a product named Chubbies?). She had her iPhone Bluetooth adapter on as she uses it to send music to her Bluetooth speakers.

Same thing happened when she was talking about switching her cell phone provider, she started getting ads about different cell phone service plans. Then one of her roommates got ads about Brooklyn hair salons ... this a few hours after  she was talking about looking for a different salon, in Brooklyn. They both use ATT cellular service on their iPhones.

My daughter used AirDrop to send images, etc., to her work phone or her computer. She kept it on all the time. Once she stopped the Bluetooth adapter until she needed it, the ads stopped. Coinky-dink?

Does any one have any information on this?
Are cellular service companies doing something illegal or is this part of the tiny, tiny script that you don't read in your service agreement?

This is why I refuse to have an Amazon Echo or anything like it in the house. It is just another way for someone to listen in on your life.

And Away We Go... Again

Here's another swamp thing that needs to be yanked out of the water once and for all. From The American Mirror:
An Obama has joined the birther movement.

Malik Obama, Barack Obama’s half-brother, tweeted image of what appears to be Barack’s birth certificate.

Except it’s not from Hawaii, but rather Kenya.
One of the issues that gave Obama a lot of confidence was that his place of birth might possibly be half a ocean away from Hawaii and the media, law enforcement and judges all covered for him. Any one who dared question Obama's claims to natural citizenship was attacked. Now let the narcissistic commie stew. Trump  is now in a position to quietly have the FBI send a few agents to Kenya to kick things around.

But wait, there's Comey he has to deal with. This could be another embarrassing cock up waiting for Trump to step in it.

Obama's half brother posts a document (if that's what it is) that has a footprint. If true, this can be used to provide positive identification. I am not sure how you would get Obama to submit to having his right footprint taken, but waterboarding seems promising.

And why now? Sure, Malik most likely was warned to keep his mouth shut during the past eight years. With a change in administration there could be something afoot, a counter move to Obama's shadow government that seeks to discredit him. Could this be Trump's initial opening volley?

You know what? Ask Putin if he would send some Rooskie agents into Kenya to take a looksee. Let the Kenyans mess with the Spetsnaz instead.

Yank On The Plug, Then Drain The Swmp

USAG Sessions is dropping hints that Obama's DoJ may be subjected to an investigation.
Attorney General Jeff Sessions suggested Thursday that he would be open to the appointment of an outside counsel to review actions taken by the Justice Department during the Obama administration.

Conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt asked Sessions in an interview if the new attorney general would consider designating an outside counsel "not connected to politics" to take a second look at Justice Department actions that provoked Republican ire in the last eight years. Those include the Fast and Furious gun scandal and the decisions against bringing criminal charges over Hillary Clinton's email practices or the Internal Revenue Service's treatment of conservative groups.
I'm finding these floaters to be tiresome.
Do it or don't.
Shit or get off the pot.
Sessions was noncommittal but left the door open, saying he would do everything he could to "restore the independence and professionalism of the Department of Justice."

"So we would have to consider whether or not some outside special counsel is needed," Sessions said. "Generally, a good review of that internally is the first step before any such decision is made."
There's been eight years of review, enough already. Still, this may be a negotiating maneuver to shake things loose a bit.

CIA Imitates Russian Hackers

And now we go a little bit further down the rabbit hole. I need to lose some weight so I'm looking for the pill that makes me smaller. If only the government could find the pill that makes them honest.

Wikileaks now uncovers more of the CIA's possible culpability in the 2016 elections mess.  
The CIA's Remote Devices Branch's UMBRAGE group collects and maintains a substantial library of attack techniques 'stolen' from malware produced in other states including the Russian Federation.

With UMBRAGE and related projects the CIA cannot only increase its total number of attack types but also misdirect attribution by leaving behind the "fingerprints" of the groups that the attack techniques were stolen from.
So the so-called evidence that the Russians hacked the election could have been the CIA hacking our own elections. This is a Rooskie source but what the hell, more here and WikiLeaks here.

Zero Hedge also has something to say about the WikiLeaks leaks and the CIA's use of Russian malware to imitate cyber attacks:
WikiLeaks said that ‘Year Zero’ revealed details of the CIA’s “global covert hacking program,” including “weaponized exploits” used against company products including “Apple's iPhone, Google's Android and Microsoft's Windows and even Samsung TVs, which are turned into covert microphones.”

WikiLeaks tweeted the leak, which it claims came from a network inside the CIA’s Center for Cyber Intelligence in Langley, Virginia.

Among the more notable disclosures which, if confirmed, "would rock the technology world", the CIA had managed to bypass encryption on popular phone and messaging services such as Signal, WhatsApp and Telegram. According to the statement from WikiLeaks, government hackers can penetrate Android phones and collect “audio and message traffic before encryption is applied.”

Another profound revelation is that the CIA can engage in "false flag" cyberattacks which portray Russia as the assailant. Discussing the CIA's Remote Devices Branch's UMBRAGE group, Wikileaks' source notes that it "collects and maintains a substantial library of attack techniques 'stolen' from malware produced in other states including the Russian Federation.
Well, apparently everyone in the US intelligence community got into the act. The DHS tried to hack the State of Georgia's election servers last year. The only difference between them and the CIA is that they suck at it.
The Georgia Secretary of State's Office now confirms 10 separate cyberattacks on its network were all traced back to U.S. Department of Homeland Security addresses.

In an exclusive interview, a visibly frustrated Secretary of State Brian Kemp confirmed the attacks of different levels on his agency's network over the last 10 months. He says they all traced back to DHS internet provider addresses.

"We're being told something that they think they have it figured out, yet nobody's really showed us how this happened,” Kemp said. "We need to know."
This isn't a swamp, it's a lake. Drain the damn thing.

The National Debt Is A Form Of Slavery

We are watching two opposing forces fighting for control of the country. This is the fiercest competition since the issue of slavery was on the table and it could very well result in the same type of resolution.  And the conflict is again ultimately one of economic advantage; the Deep State wants to protect its deep pockets.

There are trillions of dollars at stake here; Obama provided an unprecedented massive infusion of  taxpayer funds to the Deep State and it wants those deep fiduciary arteries to remain open.  Hillary was just a stent to keep them open and allow the bleeding to continue and both Democrats and Republicans participated in the operation.

We have enslaved future generations of Americans in order to feed our secretive overlords. The plantation now covers the entire country. The IRS is their whip and the media preaches that all is good and to challenge that relationship is evil.

We are twenty trillion dollars in debt with naught to show for it and yet this is not enough to quench the Deep State's thirst. Or perhaps the Democrats, using Whoopi Goldberg's "rape rape" definition, think that this massive financial burden has not reached the level of "debt debt." That level, my friends, will become apparent when the whole bloody kit and caboodle collapses and the government can finally assume control over every aspect of our lives.

Where or when will we find our Fort Sumter?
Perhaps it is now.
Has Trump fired the opening shots? I think so.

Trump Accusations Based On Vapor Evidence

These people need to be shot thrown in jail for the rest of their lives and their personal fortunes seized. Let their spouses and children beg in the streets.
From Gateway Pundit:
We now know that the meeting between Bill Clinton and Attorney General Lynch occurred at about the same time that the Obama administration filed a request with the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISA) to monitor communications involving Donald Trump and several advisers.
There is circumstantial evidence that the entire plot to eavesdrop on the server in Trump Tower started with Bill Clinton's visit to Loretta Lynch in the Phoenix airport last summer, around July 2016. The FISA court initially refused the warrant application but after it was rewritten it was approved just a month (October) prior to the Presidential elections.

Also last October WikiLeaks released another batch of emails that show close coordination between the DoJ and Clinton apparatchiks during the Hillary email investigation that was underway. Bill must have had quite a laundry list when he decided to pop in on Loretta's jet.

Thus far no particulars have emerged that detail the activities allegedly under investigation by the DoJ that precipitated the eavesdropping applications on the Trump HQ. Both warrant applications that were submitted to the FISA court need to be examined as well as the documentation that provided the reasonable cause upon which the applications were based. Let the public know just what Lynch's people were looking for... because they obviously found nothing and that is precisely the basis for the allegations now sweeping the liberal media. Vapor evidence.

Now former US AG Lynch is calling for riots, blood on the streets in order to bring down the Trump administration. IMHO this is nothing more than the last desperate gasps of a woman who knows she is about to drown in the waters of her former agency. Indict the traitorous bitch and be done with it. And don't forget the Clintons. I'd say let them all rot in prison; but then again there is merit in North Korea's use of surplus military equipment to permanently remove corrupt politicians. And sponges, don't forget the sponges.

As a bonus, this is an interesting graphic of Obama's scandal-free administration. Some of these involve wiretapping, such as the May 2013 federal seizure of AP reporters' phone calls.
