Who writes a memo to themselves in the last hours of their job...
Except to cover up something?
Comey, Rice, Brennan, Clapper, Obama, Biden, et al. There is not an honorable one amongst them, and any of them would happily throw the rest under the bus to save their own skin.
The fact that none have done so (at least publicly) as of yet, makes me question just how much pressure they are feeling from any so-called investigation. If this was being looked into aggressively, I would think at lease one would have publicly tried to get out in front of the story, but to date, nada. These are morally weak characters and yet, it seems not one has been broken or even bent thus far, from which I can only conclude that nobody is really trying to bend or break them.
I hope I'm wrong, and perhaps there is far more going on behind the scenes than we know. I'll believe it when I see it.
Blame is also one of the least productive enterprises human beings can undertake. It solves nothing, and relies far too much on emotion in place of reasoned thinking, resulting only in high levels of anger and arrogance, at the expense of working out a resolution to the series of problems that life is always placing in the way of harmony and achievement.
“Pull your head out of your rectal orifice” is the admonition that most succinctly calls our attention to the excess of emotion that rules the lives of so many people. There is a world that exists outside one’s own consciousness, you know.
Lib VP material.
If Rice wanted to protect Obama, she did a lousy job. Her memo only proves the illegality of the “by the book” investigation. Since when do investigations have to be qualified in such a way? No, she new the dangers and chose to throw shade away from a fellow conspirator.
lol! Race throws Comey under the bus to protect Obama. Must suck to be Comey.
So that’s how this thing dies. It was Obama but we don’t indict ex-presidents, especially a half black dem.
That was my first thought. Protect herself, first (I was just following orders, by the book), and the Obama. Which suggests that Comey was orchestrating this travesty. I really suspect that the ‘plan’ originated with Eric Holder, after getting his marching orders from Obama and Hillary...
Obama’s term ended at Noon on Jan 20 2017. Rice’s memo was at 12:15....so she was no longer working for the Obama’s.
Flynn replaced Rice on January 23rd 2017.
Susan Rice is a proven liar she covered for Obama...also she is not qualified for V.P.
He's dumb and weak, he's the one who'll fall apart under pressure.
===========================================
Obama's Jan. 5, 2017 WH meeting with his various flunkies, including Joe Biden, is being showcased as evidence
of Obama's villainous activities to "get Trump." Obama was paranoid about protecting his "scandal-free" administration.
The shocking details of a criminal president flow from an unusual email to herself in which Susan Rice (to be replaced
by Gen Flynn) revealed significant details about the evil cabal.....all of it written on Trump's inauguration day.
=============================================
RICE BEGINS BY EXPOSING THE FRAMEWORK OF THE EVILNESS:
“Pres Obama said he wants to be sure that, as we engage with the incoming team, we are mindful to ascertain
if there is any reason that we cannot share information fully as it relates to Russia,” Rice emailed herself.
When Susan Rice stupidly wrote a memo to herself, she inadvertently confessed to a series of crimes that added the time line and inferences about what the outgoing Obama administration illegally concealed from incoming President Trump and his aides.
Obviously their lack of honesty was a serious issue.......but flipping off established protocol had serious ramifications. This was a “justification memo”......outgoing National Security Advisor Susan Rice needed to explain why there have been multiple false and misleading statements given to the incoming President Trump and his officials.
NOTE After-the-fact memos are rarely a good idea....they reveal things the author never intended——as did Susan Rice in her now-infamous email to herself on Trump’s inauguration day.
============================================
BACKSTORY Pres Obama’s maneuver of January 3, 2017-——his signing of NSA Data-Sharing Order Section 2.3 out of AG Lynch’s office ——is the coupe d’etat to blow out The Deep State. Obama’s original ex/order contains some unusual language particularly the convoluted language WRT “The Strategic Delay of Section 2.3 of Obama’s Executive Order 12333.”
NOTE WELL: Prior to the formal signing of Section 2.3, greater latitude ALREADY existed within the White House in regards to collection of information – especially in relation to the Trump Campaign. However, once signed, Section 2.3 granted broad latitude to inter-agency sharing of information.
But by the time Obama’s new executive order was signed on January 3, 2017, all that information was already in the possession of Obama White House. Thus, Susan Rice’s January 20, 2017 email to herself takes on an even greater significance b/c no one was ever supposed to know about the REAL meaning of Obama’s retroactive actions.....until Rice stupidly laid it all out in an official email.
===================================
Suzan skipped down the Yellowbrick Road, along with the mental midgets of the Obama Administraton that notorious day.
Obama’s FBI, DOJ, ODNI, CIA and intelligence officials flipped a finger at protocol....and even worse ....they were intentionally dishonest with incoming President Trump and key members of his new administration. ump and all of his officials.
NOTE WELL This is not a “CYA” memo, this is a justification memo for use AFTER the Trump-Russia collusion/conspiracy narrative collapsed; if the impeachment effort failed.
Her intellectually facile “By-The-Book” reference -refers to both she and then-President Obama being told by CIA Director John Brennan, FBI Director Comey, Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, and Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates, that President Trump was the subject of an active counterintelligence investigation to determine if he was under the influence of the Russian government. But they NEVER told candidate Trump about it.
Even the timing of Rice’s Oz-ish memo, written 15 minutes prior to the end of the Obama administration, is ex-post-facto useful as evidence of the author’s intent.......as Suzan stupidly confesses to a host of crimes.What people miss about Susan Rice and her need to write that last memo is her attempt to craft a record of a ‘COUNTER-INTEL’ operation that was ongoing and that Obama had instructed that everything be done ‘by the book’.
What is significant here is that during a counter-intel investigation, it is permissible to lie, or in official terms ‘to disseminate disinformation’.
As long as the Obama spying was characterized as a counter-intel operation, it was legal to have words and actions left in place that might be discovered as untrue.
In other words, Rice’s final memo was an attempt to carve out a last minute get-out-of-jail pass for all those involved in the spying.
Rice likely foresaw that her successor Gen Flynn, and Congressional hearings might uncover false and perjured statements on the part of persons in the spy operation to which the response would be “So what? It was a Counter-Intel operation.”
This is why it was IMPERATIVE for Barr and Durham to investigate the ORIGINS because if the origins revealed no predicate, no basis, no genuine probable cause for launching a counter-intel operation, then Rice’s feeble stay-out-of-jail memo would fall apart.
If AG Barr wants to get serious, I suggest he look into money laundering. More specifically, he should look into the lucrative deals given to Obama and members of his administration by Netflix and the lucrative book fees paid to Democrats by publishers that recoup only a few cents on dollars paid in book fees. The last time I looked, sustaining large losses for political favor was not a goal of capitalism and I would suspect there are more than a few unhappy investors.
