PDJT released a post on Truth Social late Monday night that explicitly called for the arrest of former President Barack Obama. The message claimed that Obama, along with several former top officials, had orchestrated a “hoax” involving fabricated intelligence about Russian interference to undermine Trump’s first presidential campaign.
Trump has repeatedly described the Russia probe as “the biggest political scandal in American history” and has praised Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard for declassifying related documents.
The lapdog media rushed to brand this rhetoric as “dangerous” and “unprecedented.” They seemed to have forgotten Nixon and Watergate. Others in the Democratic PR machine called such claims as “without merit.” This is despite the overwhelming amount of evidence that has been released showing what appears to be a very unlawful investigation of PDJT and his incoming investigation during his first term.
The question that should arise in anyone who is following this story is, why now? Why would PDJT put this out there at this time?
Let’s start with part of an interview of President Obama by Stephen Colbert a few days before this.
Obama: “The White House shouldn’t be able to direct the AG to go around prosecuting whoever the president wants prosecuted. You can’t have a situation where whoever is in charge of the government starts using that to go after their political enemies or reward their friends.” pic.twitter.com/zqkV1vPdfq

This is the classic case of accusing the opposite side of doing what you were doing. It is classic misdirection. Look over there not over here. Obama is accusing PDJT of what Obama’s administration was doing during Trump’s first campaign and first term and what the OBiden administration was doing during those four years in office.
Let’s look at what has been revealed about the Obama administration activities in the transition period between the election and Trump’s inauguration.
Look at the famous January 5, 2017 meeting between Obama, Susan Rice and James Comey. The highly unlawful activities of investigating the incoming administration were a danger to all involved. And Obama was involved.
Prior to January 5, 2017, James Comey had officially infected the White House with trackable knowledge of the unlawful investigation. How?
Comey was no dope. He knew how Washington politics played. If knowledge of their unlawful activities came out, he could be hung out to dry so to speak. Comey would be portrayed as a rogue agent who was acting on his own. Comey was too smart for that.
To spread the risk and share the danger, Comey gave raw intelligence clips to DNI James Clapper. Clapper was a useful idiot. Comey knew that Clapper would go to the White House to brief Obama. As a consequence, it becomes very problematic for the Obama White House to claim they didn’t know about, nor direct, an FBI investigation of incoming President Trump or incoming National Security Advisor Michael Flynn. Of course, Obama knew about what was going on. But plausible deniability disappeared when Clapper walked into the White House with the phone intercepts.
All of this led to the January 5th meeting. This was a CYA operation. Susan Rice’s memo to self on January 20thmemorializing this meeting was part of that. The full memo.
The critical part of the memo was redacted until 2020.
Let’s be reminded, the position of President Obama and Susan Rice is that they were never aware of any FBI investigation of Flynn (or the Trump campaign); nor did they have any involvement in directing it to take place.
Two pieces of this memo stand out. Comey “affirming” that all was proceeding by the book. This obviously indicates that there was an ongoing investigation that Obama knew about. This was reiterated in the last sentence when Comey said “thus far.”
Sundance noted:
From a hindsight perspective it gets very sticky for Obama/Rice to deny knowledge with that 1/5/17 meeting content in the fray. That’s the purpose of the Jan 20th CYA memo to file. Think about it:
Question: Ms Rice how can you claim to have no knowledge of an FBI investigation when the FBI was providing the White House FBI with intercepts of Flynn communication?
Are you saying the FBI intercepts were not authorized by President Obama?
Things are getting very sticky. Obama knows this and that probably led to his appearance with Colbert. Obama is trying to paint whatever comes next as a partisan witch hunt rather than a legitimate investigation into what is probably the biggest scandal in American history.
The Deep State will spare no expense to protect their own. The question is can they succeed this time? And who is they? Will this investigation expose more players inside the Deep State?
