Bombshell!

Yesterday Patrick Byrne, CEO of Overstock.com, resigned his position. Now CEO’s do leave their companies from time to time. However, few if any CEO’s have done so for the reasons Byrne put forth.

Byrne has led the company for 20 years. In 1999, Byrne was approached by the founder of D2-Discounts Direct with a request for operating capital. Byrne found the idea of online closeouts intriguing, and invested $7 million for a 60 percent equity stake in the company in the spring of 1999. In September the same year he took over as CEO, and the following month the company was renamed Overstock.com.

According to Patrick Byrne, due to earlier relationships with federal law enforcement (17 years ago…helped to snare the murderer of a friend and 12 years ago…helped with a Wall Street investigation), he was approached in/around 2015 to help out the FBI with another operation.

As he indicates, he felt there was something fishy about the operation. However, the people who approached him he felt were honorable. It was only several years later that he figured out where the orders had come from.

Winners and Losers

The media likes to list winners and losers from every confrontation between the two main-stream political parties. The media’s views of these events often lean towards their own particular political ideologies.

Without a doubt the Republicans were the winners and the Democrats were the losers from the Mueller hearings on Wednesday. Even far left media outlets like CNN agreed. Chris Cillizza at CNN noted,

If Democrats hoped that Mueller would easily bat away Republican attacks — on him and on his report — they were sorely disappointed in the opening moments of his testimony. Mueller seemingly contradicted himself (and the report) when he told Georgia Rep. Doug Collins, the ranking Republican member on the committee, that collusion and conspiracy were not the same thing.

Mueller Bombs Out

The circus was in town in Washington, but the clowns did not show up. In what was characterized by most media outlets including those friendly to the Democrats as a bad day, Robert Mueller came off as what we thought he was. A figurehead for the investigation. A public face who was supposed to bring credibility.

Mueller didn’t pick his team. The DOJ/FBI team was already carrying out the “insurance policy” when he arrived. They had come over from the bogus Crossfire Hurricane counter-intelligence investigation. Mueller was selected by them.

The coup plotters were behind the scenes trying to find something, anything that they could pin on the President. Trying to trap PDJT into an obstruction of justice charge was the principal activity of Mueller’s team. Mueller would have been the face of reason in presenting such evidence.

The Circus Comes To Town

The circus returns to Washington. On Wednesday Robert Mueller is scheduled to appear before two House committees. Mueller is expected to testify for a total of five hours. It has long been speculated that if Mueller testified, he would not testify alone. On Tuesday it was announced that Aaron Zebly would join Mueller. Undoubtedly he will be there to “help” Mueller remember specific items in the report. It appears that Mueller was little more than a public figurehead. He probably does not know a lot about the actual formulation of the report bearing his name.

What is the Democrats’ purpose in heading down this path? Of course, the long term objective is to overthrow the duly elected government of the United States. They hope to do this via impeachment even though PDJT has done nothing wrong.

Impeachment is a political process. The Democrats know they cannot succeed with impeachment unless they can generate outrage. So outrage will be one of the objectives of this exercise. It will not be about educating the American public about impeachment as Speaker Pelosi has been peddling. And the Dems will hope for outrage on both sides of the aisle. They desperately need the smokescreen that outrage brings.

Bombs Away, Part 2

Another video has surfaced of Ellen Ratner saying that Julian Assange had told her in the Ecuadorian embassy that the DNC “hack” was actually an inside job. If it has not already happened, it is time for AG Barr and US Attorney Durham to sit down with Ellen Ratner and Julian Assange to find out how they know what they claim they know.

Bombs Away!

Early last week, information surfaced on multiple independent news sites about a lawsuit that was filed in Texas by one Ed Butowski. In it he asserted that Wikileaks’ Julian Assange confirmed to Fox News analyst Ellen Ratner that the DNC emails supposedly hacked by Russians were actually received from Seth Rich and his brother Aaron. (See Story Here)

If true, the implications of this are enormous. Because of this, patience has been the watchword among those who would like to get to the bottom of the false narrative surrounding the Russians and the 2016 election.

Now a video has surfaced confirming that Ellen Ratner did say that she did indeed meet with Julian Assange as Ed Butowski alleges. The video was taken during a November 9th, 2016, Embry Riddle University symposium. Ellen Ratner and former Congressman John Leboutillier discussed the aftermath of the 2016 presidential election.

Assange Confirmed DNC Emails Came From Seth Rich

A stunning court filing on Monday in a Texas Federal District Court has revived a story long derided by the DNC and those who support them in the MSM. The defamation lawsuit, filed by Texas businessman Ed Butowsky, alleges Wikileaks’ Julian Assange confirmed to Fox News analyst Ellen Ratner that the DNC emails supposedly hacked by Russians were actually received from Seth Rich and his brother Aaron.

The relevant part of the court filing follows: RCH stands for Russian Collusion Hoax

Go Directly To Jail

HPSCI ranking member Devin Nunes (R-CA) was interviewed by Bill Hemmer last week. During the interview he warned that there will be massive political consequences if Justice Department officials don’t face jail time for their conduct during the Russia collusion hoax. It is a warning that AG Bill Barr and the Department of Justice should take very seriously.

Via Fox News – […] According to Nunes, the Russia investigation was an “obstruction of justice trap,” that started without evidence of collusion and ended in an “awful situation” that could only be fixed by jailing the people who “perpetuated this hoax.” ...

How Many Were Spied On by Obama?

The General Michael Flynn case grinds on. Flynn has hired a new attorney (Mrs. Sidney Powell) and they were in court this week again. The need for a classified security clearance to review documents was discussed. The DOJ responded by saying no classified information was provided to the prior Flynn defense team. Therefore, Ms. Powell didn’t need to be concerned on that issue.

This means that Flynn was never provided with a copy of the phone call transcript (December 29, 2016) between him and Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak. The content of that phone call lies at the heart of the FBI interview that took place on January 24th, 2017. It became the basis for the charges that he lied to the FBI.

Ignoring for a moment the merits of the Flynn case, one has to ask about the ineptitude (or corruption?) of his previous attorneys for not asking for production of this evidence. There are also all the machinations that occurred in the production of the FD-302 notes from the Flynn interview. But, most importantly, there is the question of how and when Flynn was unmasked.

Are Indictments Coming?

The architects of the failed counter-intelligence operation against PDJT are getting nervous. With AG Barr and US Attorney Durham digging deeper and deeper into the origins of the spying on the Trump campaign and the Presidency, James Clapper, former DNI, has gone into panic mode. Keep in mind that Clapper perjured himself before Congress in 2013 that the NSA wasn’t spying on Americans. Then Edward Snowden came on the scene and blew that story out of the water. We know why he wasn’t indicted for perjury then. He has no such protection today.
