Meet the Men Behind Hillary Clinton's Private 'Spy Network' (2015 flashback)
Weekly Standard ^ | Mar 30, 2015 | Mark Hemingway

Posted on 01/30/2018 12:09:13 PM PST by detective

wo big Clinton stories landed last week. The first is that Hillary Clinton destroyed the electronic copies of her State Department emails on her private server after the State Department subpoenaed her emails. The second is that Hillary Clinton had an aide running a "secret spy network" that was, among other things, feeding her information on Benghazi, according to a report by Pro Publica and Gawker. Earlier this month, I noted the myriad ways that Clinton running her own private email server breathes new life into the Benghazi investigation, but this last revelation takes things to a whole new level.

Specifically, this new report suggests that three men -- Sidney Blumenthal, Tyler Drumheller, and Cody Shearer -- were involved in her private intelligence gathering efforts. Each of these men has a reputation for being associated with scandal.

The article is from 2015 but it is very relevant today.

The article documents the Clintons collection of slimy liars and smear artists that do their bidding. It talks about the illegal things they have done.

This is a very good article that describes Sydney Blumenthal,(Sid Vicious) to those who know him, and Cody Shearer the supposed author latest smear job on Trump that the FBI and the Mueller investigation are using.

These people need to be put under oath, investigated and put in prison.

The real Libyan scandal is how the US wound up bombing the troops of another United Nation's recognized government without a ‘by your leave’ from Congress.

Here's how.

One of the sleaziest of the Clinton cronies is Sid Blumenthal, the most greedy bum ever seen in politics. Sid crawled out of nowhere in the 90s, and cashes hefty checks from the Clinton Foundation, assorted US govt entities, and businesses with a financial interest in toppling Mideast goverments. An expose of this guy is long overdue.

Think Obama is mysterious? Take a gander at Blumenthal.

================================================

ITEM--Sid was banned from govt employment by Obama, but at the same time Blumenthal was pushing Secy of State Clinton to all-out war in Libya, suck-up Sid was privately pushing his business interests WRT contracts with the "new" Libyan government — a government that would exist only after US military intervention in Libya that deposed Qaddafi.

ITEM--Blumenthal was engaged in massive conflicts of interest since he was simultaneously (a) being paid by The Clinton Foundation, (b) paid by Hillary's 2016 PAC organizers, and, (3) paid by businesses w/ interests in Libya.

If Secy Clinton knew all that, then her actions in circulating memos composed by Blumenthal were egregious. If she did not know, her recklessness is subject to US laws.

=====================================================

ITEM---to its donors---and to the world beyond---the Clinton Foundation hired Sid Blumenthal to..... (wait for it)..... "promote Bill's presidential legacy." That's what Sid was supposed to be doing for his hefty $325,000 foundation salary.

ITEM---so if the Clinton Foundation Board of Trustees signed off on the Blumenthal hire without being appraised of the full scope of his duties....that would violate state laws and place the trustees in legal jeopardy.

==============================================

REFERENCES--- The implications of these Blumenthal revelations are huge, as the Washington Free Beacon points out:

<><> Among the newly revealed Benghazi e-mails were a pair of messages from July 2011 in which Blumenthal described efforts to secure Libyan government contracts for Osprey Global Solutions, a company in which Blumenthal has admitted to having a financial interest.

<><>Blumenthal warned Clinton that French companies were looking to scoop up security contracts from the Transitional National Council, the revolutionary government of the Libyan resistance, and plugged Osprey’s ability to be an American counterweight.

<><> “It puts Americans in a central role without being direct battle combatants,” Blumenthal wrote of Osprey’s TNC contract. He described his efforts in “putting this arrangement together through a series of connections, linking the Libyans to Osprey and keeping it moving.”

<><> Clinton forwarded that message to Jake Sullivan, her deputy chief of staff, and asked to discuss it later.

======================================

SHOCKER Clinton Foundation employee Sid Blumenthal (banned from govt employ) had inside govt info and was constantly in touch w/ Secy Hillary.

<><> For public consumption, Sid was beng touted as a Clinton Foundation hire---the factotum hired to preserve Bill's pesidential legacy (cue laugh machine).

<><> Shockingly, Sid's emails show he had classified State Dept info almost verbatim (as confirmed by the NSA).

<><> How did classified info get into Sid's possession? Did he pass it on to anyone else? Did he sell it to anyone else?

============================================

Blumenthal kept urging Hillary to bomb Libya b/c he had profit-making business interests predicated on a post-Khadaffi Libyan govt.

<><> Sid cunningly used scare tactics----telling Hillary that Obama would lose reelection if the US didn't bomb Libya.

Amazingly, the obedient Hillary passed on this information to Obama.....did O know it came from a person he banned from govt employment?

But wait......there's more on Sid.

BACKSTORY Sid Blumenthal was (is) the conniving Clintons' bagman---a $325,000 employee of the Clinton Foundation, hired to (gag) promote Clinton's presidential legacy. On the side, Sid promoted dubious foreign deals and schemes in which he had a financial interest many of them predicated on the fall of Libya.

Blumenthal was ambidextrous---emailing Libya foreign policy messages w/ one hand....his other hand firmly in the State Dept cookie jar.

In one (leaked) confidential e-mail to Clinton, Blumenthal was clearly colluding w/ onetime Amb Joe Wilson (Valerie's husband) to score a bundle of tax dollars.

GAME ON Amb Wilson pumped himself as a 'director' of Symbion Power---an outfit seeking millions of dollars in contracts from an obscure government agency chaired by Hillary....the Millennium Challenge Corp (MCC)....a notorious slush fund.

In September 2010, Hillary ordered MCC to award Symbion $47 million tax dollars for (cough) 'power projects in Tanzania.'

......how much of the $47 million tax dollars got to Tanzania after the players divvied it up among Blumenthal, Wilson, the Clintons, Obama?.........

===========================================

FREEPER ACTION PROJECT--DO THIS NOW: demand the Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) books be opened. We demand to know the financial details and the scope and dimension of individuals connected to these outrageous State Dept giveaways.........govt parasites like Blumenthal, Plame and her husband pocketing zillions at taxayers' expense.

CONTACT CONGRESS HERE------http://www.contactingthecongress.org/

============================================

Millinium Challenege is also the govt agency Obama lifted 100 million tax dollars to give to Michelle to give to Morocco "to teach Muslim girls." Exept that the 100 million tax dollars are to be "held by the Obama Foundation" in the US......and doled out "when needed."

(waiting for hysterical laughter to die down)

Read Sharyl Atkisson’s new book “The Smear” to fully understand how big and poisonous the Clinton smear machine is. I’ve always been a cynic when it comes to political reporting, especially in social media, but I was shocked by her revelations. It’s a “must read” for Freepers and everyone else.

Names to remember: David Brock, Mary Pat Bonner and many others.

“Sid was banned from govt employment by Obama”

When a person is too slimy even for Obama, that puts a lot into perspective.

Sid probably wasn’t too slimy for Obozo (is anyone?). Sid was and is a Crooked Hillary ally, and Obozo was probably afraid Sid would find a way to undermine him. Also, wasn’t Sid the originator of the Obozo birther rumor when HRC was running for president in 2008?

Could be. Sounds like something he would do. I just heard that Hillary started it — and he’s one of her minions.

It appeared early from a Democrat in Pennsylvania named Phil Berg.

Berg is connected to Larry Johnson and VIPS and VIPS to Joe Wilson...

They are an antisemitic bunch and some seem to be LaRouche followers.

... and Joe Wilson is associated with the “Truth-Telling Project” of Dan Ellsberg of Pentagon Paper fame, who just popped up on Coast to Coast kook radio last night or the night before. I thought he was dead but guess not.
