Not only is she a Chinese spy and traitor, she is also a moslem !

210. The next day, on or about August24,20l6, Claibome sent Co-Conspirator A an e-card message using the service Birthday Alarm. The message’s subject was Happy Birthday,” even though Co-Cobspirator A’s birthday occu:red five days before, and Claibome had conveyed birthday geetings by phone to Co-Conspirator A on his actual birthday. The message, however, had little to do with Co-Conspirator A’s birthday. To the contrary, it read, “I hope you enjoyed your day. May Al1ah bless you with health and happiness. Btw delete all email messages and cotrtact information in your email and phone pertaining to [Co-Conspirator B] and [Co-Conspirator C] - I don’t want any trouble going forward ok - please do this immediately! Messages, nos, anything having to do with that fashion school your apartment anything - even from wechat, fb, slqpe, etc u got me?”

A federal complaint was unsealed today charging Candace Marie Claiborne, 60, of Washington, D.C., and an employee of the U.S. Department of State, with obstructing an official proceeding and making false statements to the FBI, both felony offenses, for allegedly concealing numerous contacts that she had over a period of years with foreign intelligence agents.

[snip]

“Candace Marie Claiborne is a U.S. State Department employee who possesses a Top Secret security clearance and allegedly failed to report her contacts with Chinese foreign intelligence agents who provided her with thousands of dollars of gifts and benefits,” said Acting Assistant Attorney General McCord. “Claiborne used her position and her access to sensitive diplomatic data for personal profit. Pursuing those who imperil our national security for personal gain will remain a key priority of the National Security Division.”

Thanks, bitt.

“Claiborne maintains a Top Secret security clearance. Claiborne is required to report any contacts with persons suspected of affiliation with a foreign intelligence agency.

Despite such a requirement, the affidavit alleges, Claiborne failed to report repeated contacts with two intelligence agents of the People’s Republic of China (PRC), even though these agents provided tens of thousands of dollars in gifts and benefits to Claiborne and her family over five years. According to the affidavit, the gifts and benefits included cash wired to Claiborne’s USAA account, an Apple iPhone and laptop computer, Chinese New Year’s gifts, meals, international travel and vacations, tuition at a Chinese fashion school, a fully furnished apartment, and a monthly stipend. Some of these gifts and benefits were provided directly to Claiborne, the affidavit alleges, while others were provided through a co-conspirator.

According to the affidavit, Claiborne noted in her journal that she could “Generate 20k in 1 year” working with one of the PRC agents, who, shortly after wiring $2,480 to Claiborne, tasked her with providing internal U.S. Government analyses on a U.S.-Sino Strategic Economic Dialogue that had just concluded.

Claiborne, who allegedly confided to a co-conspirator that the PRC agents were “spies,” willfully misled State Department background investigators and FBI investigators about her contacts with those agents, the affidavit states. After the State Department and FBI investigators contacted her, Claiborne also instructed her co-conspirators to delete evidence connecting her to the PRC agents, the affidavit alleges.”

She be fooked!

These people, and sadly I am of the opinion that there are many of them scattered throughout our government, pose the single greatest threat to our safety and security.

I personally think the Liberal Media propaganda agents who control the information streams to the public, constitute the greatest threat to our safety and security.

Remember, without those New York media liars manipulating the news, the public would never have elected Clinton or Obama.

So far as i'm concerned, the distortion of the electorate caused by media liars has already done countless damage to this country and it's people.

At all costs we need to destroy the liberal media monopoly of information control and distribution. We need equal time on that trillion dollar broadcasting infrastructure before we can ever fix the damage they have done.

I reviewed it from a newsfeed online. I have not seen it on any of the occupation news networks. They keep pointing at the squirrel to cover up the swamp disaster.

We are on our own when it comes unearthing real news and distributing it.
