Russia hoax was the strategy: Clinton greenlit Trump smear to deflect from her email scandal during 2016 run

By Shaina Cole | Contributing Writer, Rocky Mountain Voice Newly declassified documents and insider testimony has started to change how people view the whole Trump–Russia narrative. At the heart of it all is a 2017 intelligence report that claimed Vladimir Putin meddled in the 2016 election to help Donald Trump win.  For years, it was treated as fact. But now, that conclusion is being questioned both by former officials and documents that never saw daylight until recently. Among the most telling pieces of evidence are internal emails suggesting Hillary Clinton signed off on a plan to push the Russia angle, not because it was true, but to take heat off her own email troubles. That Intelligence Community Assessment, or ICA, released just two weeks before Trump’s inauguration, s...

Turley: ‘The Reveal’ the public is waking up to—Democrats’ greatest political trick in U.S. history

Jonathan Turley | Commentary, JonathanTurley.org Below is my column in Fox.com on the release of the last declassified material on the origins of the Russian collusion investigation. After the release, former CIA Director John Brennan and former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper wrote in the New York Times to deny the allegations and insisted that they never relied on the Steele dossier. The column only reaffirmed the level of dishonesty and duplicity that marked their tenures in office. (The Times still printed this claim despite being demonstrably untrue). The documents quote Brennan in overruling career analysts and intervening to include the dossier in the intelligence assessment. Moreover, the column echoes the media spin that the investigation was about ...

Clapper allies tried to strong-arm DIA analyst into signing off on fake Trump–Russia report

By Margot Cleveland | The Federalist ‘You need to TRUST ME on this,’ Clapper’s crony told the analyst, saying he ‘would need to demonstrate [his] ability to “outgrow”’ the refusal to sign off on assessments he did not concur with. A crony of then-Director of National Intelligence (DNI) James Clapper threatened to withhold a promotion from a senior intelligence official unless he concurred in the fake Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) on Russia’s meddling in the 2016 election, notes obtained exclusively by The Federalist show. The notes made public for the first time today recount a conversation the top analyst in the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) had with an unnamed superior who worked closely with the then-Director James Clapper, according to source...

Turley: Key players behind the Russian collusion hoax—and why they’re sweating now

By Jonathan Turley | Commentary, Fox News Former CIA Director Brennan and other top officials reportedly 'lawyering up' as declassified documents contradict previous testimony The release of declassified material has shed new light on the creation of the Russian collusion investigation and many of the names are crushingly familiar. Indeed, Congress is moving to "round up the usual suspects" in light of the new revelations. It is the story of the real Russian conspiracy: how high-ranking officials in the Obama Administration seeded this false claim with the help of an eager, unquestioning press corps. Not surprisingly, the media, which spent years repeating the false Russian collusion claims, is doing a full-court press to kill the story. Yet, many of these key figures are retainin...

‘Treasonous conspiracy’: Obama officials pushed fake Trump-Russia narrative

By Olivia Rondeau | Breitbart The Obama administration’s top officials committed a “treasonous conspiracy” by manufacturing and politicizing intelligence to create the false narrative that led to the years-long Trump-Russia collusion probe, according to newly-declassified documents released by Director of National Intelligence (DNI) Tulsi Gabbard. Announcing that “Americans will finally learn the truth” about shady actions taken by senior officials in former President Barack Obama’s National Security Council (NSC), Gabbard dropped damning documents that showed how they laid the groundwork for “what was essentially a years-long coup” against President Donald Trump: Despite the intelligence community’s consensus that Russia “lacked the intent and capability to hack U.S. elections” p...
