Dan Bongino connecting the dots on Obama’s wiretapping and how he covered it up using the Russia hoax. Video 107 min., long winded at times but it explains the players and the lies. As an avid news junkie, even I was ‘red pilled’. After watching, the memo will take on new meaning.

Former FBI Director James Comey is in deep trouble — and he could have just hours left to breath. Thursday, the hammer of justice may finally come down on him and the alleged anti-Trump (and pro-Hillary Clinton) agents in the FBI. In a remarkably public clash of wills with the White House, the FBI declared Wednesday it has “grave concerns” about the release of a secret memo on the Russia election investigation that President Donald Trump wants released. The FBI’s panicked public statement, its first on the issue, laid bare a Trump administration conflict that had previously played out mostly...

The White House is standing by President Trump’s assertions that former President Obama ordered a wiretap of his phones, even as others -- Democrats and Republicans alike -- have said there is no proof. But the president believes he will, ultimately, be vindicated. Here is a timeline of Trump’s unsubstantiated claims, what other officials have said and how the White House has responded:

Victor Davis Hanson, one of the few remaining bright spots at the increasingly priggish and self-regarding National Review, has written another dynamite piece, one that perfectly explains the unethical (and possibly criminal) behavior currently being uncovered within the Obama administration, the 2016 Clinton campaign, the FBI, and Justice Department. “[I]f we’d seen a Hillary Clinton victory in November 2016, which was supposed to be a sure thing, there would now be no scandals at all,” Hanson writes. He explains, “That is, the current players probably broke laws and committed ethical violations not just because they were assured there would be...

Well, this is good news. Chairman Devin Nunes, and House Speaker Paul Ryan have had ample time to discuss the larger ramifications to “The Big Ugly”.

Below is the transcript of the second press conference, held at the White House following Nunes’ meeting with the president.

Today I briefed the President on the concerns that I had about incidental collection and how it relates to President-elect Trump and his transition team, and the concerns that I had. As I said earlier, there will be more information, hopefully by Friday. The NSA is cooperating very very...

To understand the Four Page House Intelligence Memo at the heart of today’s FISA Abuse stories, it helps to understand why the memo is needed. We wrote about the issue in a March 2017 outline called: “The Nunes Paradox” – SEE HERE As the year-long story has unfolded, there are two central components at the heart of the political corruption and weaponization of the DOJ and FBI: ♦First, corruption within the DOJ and FBI that included their use of unlawful use of FISA-702 exploits; and ♦Second, how that intelligence information was extracted, passed along to those outside government, repackaged, and...

With shutdown theater in high gear, some stories get buried. The government runs out of money at midnight tonight, but there was another story that was trending on social media last night. The House Intelligence Committee voted to release a four-page memo on FISA abuses that have disturbed lawmakers to their core. Some were saying the actions described were akin to the KGB. The vote to release the memo to all members was along party lines, and House Republicans seem adamant that the information should be released to the public.
