"There's a lot about this "scoop" that makes little sense."

Well, Trump didn't say which three. So maybe he's hoping guilty staffers will quit, not knowing if they're among the three.

If I were guilty I would not want Trump to fire me to my face. He's giving them time to exit without the stigma of being fired.

It only takes news coverage of a few being frog marched outside the White House to get the message across.

Exactly. Why give them more time to leak more stuff? Can 'em now, lock 'em up, put the fear of the DOJ into the rest of the pack.

If they do arrest three (or however many), it may cause other guilty parties to betray themselves in an attempt at coverups.

I never did understand why pubs just let the enemy stay in power to undercut them at every turn?

Because they like to lose. Because they're a bunch of greedy cowardly pussies who only want tax cuts for the rich and more military spending (and campaign kickbacks).

It's all they know.

C'mon. That has to sound pretty thin even to you. I have to award you a few Trump loyalty points but even so...

Trump needs to unleash the DOJ on each and every leaker. And start pulling security clearances by the thousands.

Believe it or not I had a megalomaniac brigade commander when I was a battalion operations officer. He wanted to know everything that was going on in his subordinate units from what we were planning (even though we reported such in training schedules 6 weeks out), interpersonal relationships (who is getting along with whomever), and if anyone was bad mouthing the Brigade staff or him.

I had a large staff section with some members previously on Brigade staff. So when my battalion commander (BN CDR) came back from a meeting one day he asked me if I told brigade (BDE) our initial plans as he wanted to break the news to the 'boss' (BDE CDR). Here I am a young Major (MAJ) and I enter the 'politics' of information management and information is power. So my boss says 'you have a leak.' LOL, I did LOL when he said that but he was most serious. Needless to say, the BDE staff was finding out information faster than we could report on personnel status, land, range and ammunition forecasts and most important to the BN XO, the maintenance status of our rocket launchers.

So I had to find 'the leak' and report back to the commander. {of course lost on my BN CDR is that this is information our higher should know and we did report but for some reason the BDE commander wanted to know the info so he could confront the BN Cdrs with the upper hand...total control freak...but I digress}.

Knowing some ways of catching a snitch, I proceeded. My Ops NCO told me who came from Brigade staff and I started there. I discretely (through the OPS NCO) fed each of the three conflicting information so minute in detail on the same report. Didn't work. Expanding my chicanery, I had only officers in on a real report after duty hours and it was the sort of info the BDE commander wanted. No dice but I eliminated the officer from suspicion.

Then out of the blue the OPS NCO (good guy) was in my office with the ammo SGT complaining we were getting screwed on red cycle taskings (detail work like training area clean up, flag detail, guard duty, staff duty etc.)

Well, that word got back quick to the BDE as the BDE commander called my commander asking why we were complaining about red cycle detail. Flash to bang was two hours. We had our snitch the ammo sergeant who used to be a platoon sergeant under the BDE cdr when he was a battery commander. LOL. Needless to say our Command Sergeant Major (CSM) took care of the careless NCO and there was harmony once again.:)

Moral of the story? Planned operations to catch a snitch usually does not work. Catching one usually happens with day to day operations.

Okay. But OAN says they already have three leakers.

It's not comparable to your story. If you turn DOJ's hounds loose on them, you'll find at least that many more as they rat out their snitch network and it begins to collapse.

Beyond that, it is entirely inappropriate for Trump to have any involvement if you intend to prosecute. This is Jeff Sessions' job, not Trump's.

Ideally, FBI agents or DOJ investigators or a U.S. attorney should confront each with the evidence against them, they should be forced to resign and then catch them in coverup lies and send them to a real federal prison (no Club Feds) for at least 5-10 years.

Sessions needs to send a very tough message or these leaks will never stop. They could get much worse.

Here's a tale of possible interest. I am not aware of any direct connection to the OAN thread claim.

EXCLUSIVE: House Intelligence, Foreign Affairs Committee Members Compromised By Rogue IT Staff

Luke Rosiak
Investigative Reporter
Daily Caller
11:12 AM 02/04/2017

Three brothers who managed office information technology for members of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence and other lawmakers were abruptly relieved of their duties on suspicion that they accessed congressional computers without permission.

Brothers Abid, Imran, and Jamal Awan were barred from computer networks at the House of Representatives Thursday, The Daily Caller News Foundation Investigative Group has learned.

Three members of the intelligence panel and five members of the House Committee on Foreign Affairs were among the dozens of members who employed the suspects on a shared basis. The two committees deal with many of the nation’s most sensitive issues and documents, including those related to the war on terrorism.

Also among those whose computer systems may have been compromised is Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, the Florida Democrat who was previously the target of a disastrous email hack when she served as chairman of the Democratic National Committee during the 2016 campaign.

The brothers are suspected of serious violations, including accessing members’ computer networks without their knowledge and stealing equipment from Congress.

Jamal handled IT for Rep. Joaquin Castro, a Texas Democrat who serves on both the intelligence and foreign affairs panels.

“As of 2/2, his employment with our office has been terminated,” Castro spokeswoman Erin Hatch told TheDCNF Friday.

Jamal also worked for Louisiana Democrat Rep. Cedric Richmond, who is on the Committee on Homeland Security.

Imran worked for Reps. Andre Carson, an Indiana Democrat, and Jackie Speier, a California Democrat. Both are members of the intelligence committee, and their spokesmen did not respond to TheDCNF’s requests for comment. Imran also worked for the House office of Wasserman Schultz.

Then-Rep. Tammy Duckworth, an Illinois Democrat, employed Abid for IT work in 2016. She was a member of House committees dealing with the armed services, oversight, and Benghazi. Duckworth was elected to the Senate in November, 2016. Abid has a prior criminal record and a bankruptcy.

Abid also worked for Rep. Lois Frankel, a Florida Democrat who is member of the foreign affairs committee. Indiana Rep. Andre Carson speaks at an Islamic Circle of North America event in 2014. (Youtube screen grab)

The three men are “shared employees,” meaning they are hired by multiple offices, which split their salaries and use them as needed for IT services. It is up to each member to fire them.

A criminal investigation into five unnamed people began late last year related to serious and potentially illegal violations of House IT policies, Politico reported Thursday. Chiefs of staff for the members were briefed Thursday by the Sergeant-at-Arms.

Capitol Police spokeswoman Eva Malecki said the investigation was still ongoing, and arrests have not been made but staff were “asked to update their security settings.”

Buzzfeed reported that the Sergeant-at-Arms told staff that the subjects were four men who were brothers and one woman. It did not name them. It quoted one of the affected members as saying “they said it was some sort of procurement scam, but now I’m concerned that they may have stolen data from us, emails, who knows.”

Jamal did not return a request for comment from TheDCNF at a personal email address, while emails to House addresses in the three men’s names bounced back Friday.

Abid, Imran and Jamal have all shared a house in Lorton, Virginia, that is owned by Hina R. Alvi. Alvi is a female House IT employee who works for many of the same members as the three brothers, as well as the House Democratic Caucus.

Signs of trouble have long been visible in public records. The Congressional Credit Union repossessed Abid’s car in 2009, and he declared bankruptcy in 2012, facing multiple lawsuits.

Alvi, who did not respond to TheDCNF’s request for comment, has taken multiple second mortgages.

Security-sensitive jobs typically require background checks for credit and legal problems that can create pressures to cash in on access to secret information and documents.

Jamal, who public records suggest is only 22 years old and first began working in the House when he was 20, was paid nearly $160,000 a year, or three times the average House IT staff salary, according to InsideGov, which tracks congressional salaries. Abid was paid $161,000 and Imran $165,000.

Jack Langer, spokesman for the intelligence committee, said the committee office has its own IT staff and security measures and classified information from the panel is not allowed to be sent to members’ personal offices.

Sources: Democratic Aide Suspected Of Major Security Breach Under Government Protection In Pakistan

Luke Rosiak
Investigative Reporter
Daily Caller 10:39 PM 05/22/2017

A criminal suspect in an investigation into a major security breach on the House of Representatives computer network has abruptly left the country and gone to Pakistan, where her family has significant assets and VIP-level protection, a relative and others told The Daily Caller News Foundation’s Investigative Group.

Hina Alvi, her husband Imran Awan, and his brothers Abid and Jamal were highly paid shared IT administrators working for multiple House Democrats until their access to congressional IT systems was terminated Feb. 2 as a result of the investigation. Capitol Police confirmed the investigation is ongoing, but no arrests have been reported in the case.

The Awans are “accused of stealing equipment from members’ offices without their knowledge and committing serious, potentially illegal, violations on the House IT network,” according to Politico. Many of the Democrats who employed the Awans are members of the House Committee on Homeland Security, the Committee on Foreign Affairs and the Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence. (A list of potentially compromised members is listed below.)

Their positions gave them access to members’ emails and confidential files. In addition, Imran was given the password for an iPad used by then-Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz, a Florida Democrat. The five came to the U.S. from Pakistan.

Since the investigation became public, the Awans have abruptly moved from longtime homes in Lorton and Springfield, Va.

Imran and Hina recently withdrew their children from their schools, according to members of the Holly Elementary and Lorton Station Middle school communities. Multiple people said Hina told them she was headed to Pakistan where the family has significant property.

Real estate records show Hina listed both the Lorton house and an apartment she owns for sale.

“I came to know from one of their relatives that Hina Alvi and her daughters are moved to Pakistan, Hina Alvi saying ‘we have moved here in Pakistan permanently,'” the Awans’ stepmother, Samina Gilani, told TheDCNF.

Two other sources close to the family, who requested anonymity because they believe it is a “national security issue,” also said that Hina has gone to Pakistan.

And they worked for House Dems, mostly doing their networking. I think they all got fired (unless the Dims have brought them back).

It appears your research is somewhat flawed. They were employed by multiple congresscritters.

Their access to the computer systems was removed in February 2017, but they were not immediately removed from employment.

House staffers under criminal investigation still employed

By Heather Caygle

02/06/2017 07:32 PM EST

Multiple Democratic lawmakers have yet to cut ties with House staffers under criminal investigation for wide-ranging equipment and data theft.

Imran Awan, a longtime House staffer who worked for more than two dozen Democrats since 2004, is still employed by Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, though his access to the House IT network has been blocked since last week.

“At this time we are continuing to gather information from House officials and will determine the best approach to move forward once we have reviewed that information,” David Damron, communications director for Wasserman Schultz, said in an email when asked by POLITICO if Awan was still working for the Florida Democrat.

[...]

They were not removed from all congressional employ until March 2, 2017, when they were finally removed from the offices of Rep. Gregory Meeks and Rep. Marcia Fudge, the last stalwart holdouts.

House Democrats Delayed Dismissal Of IT Staff 'Hackers' Because They Were Muslim American

by Tyler Durden
Mar 2, 2017 12:05 AM

A month ago, three Muslim American brothers who managed office IT were barred from congressional computers (on suspicion that they accessed computers without permission). While many congressmen immediately relieved them of their duties, two House Democrats decided to delay the firing (until today) because their Muslim background, some with ties to Pakistan, could make them easy targets for false charges.

Wasserman Schultz IT Guy Threatened Kidnappings For Cash, Court Docs Say

Luke Rosiak

Daily Caller
10:02 PM 04/30/2017

A former congressional information technology (IT) aide allegedly threatened to have his stepmother’s Pakistani relatives kidnapped if she talked to U.S. law enforcement authorities, according to court documents obtained by The Daily Caller News Foundation’s (TheDCNF) Investigative Group.

“Imran Awan threatened that he is very powerful and if I ever call the police again, [he] will … kidnap my family members back in Pakistan,” Awan’s stepmother, Samina Gilani, claimed in the documents filed April 14 in Fairfax County, Va., in the case of Americo Financial Life and Annuity Insurance Company v. Abid A. Awan and Samina Ashraf Gilani.

Imran Awan and his brothers Abid and Jamal are under criminal investigation by U.S. Capitol Police on suspicion they abused their administrator-level access to sensitive congressional data, as reported Feb. 4 by TheDCNF.

Hasn't Comey now agreed to testify in the open? And if so, who assembles the committee?

IF it's either Ryan OR McConnell (unofficial chartered members of Trump's bi-partisan opposition), what insurance is there that there will be honest, un-blackmailed brokers within this committee who won't purposely turn the Hearings into a circus or Kangaroo Court?

Your respective opinions on how a Hearing (starring Comey) will go, given Comey's history as Enforcer/Facilitator of the Clinton Machine was NO secret?

That Comey was EVER confirmed as Feeb Director proves without a shadow of doubt how utterly filthy the DC Swamp as well as mercenary-whoring Fake Media is...

"Justice" in this case -- IS it possible?

How many "Pleading-the-5th" mulligans, "I don't recall", and other obvious obstructions of justice with impunity shall we expect (a la Lerner, Holder, Hillary, Huma, Dem etal)?

THE BIG QUESTION: Will 0bama, Hillary, AND Lynch be called to testify? They are ALL obviously at the center at this Hurricane.

DISTURBING: NONE of these illegal relationships and harassment, threats, blackmail, and FIXES are enabled without high-ranking GOPe cooperation and looking the other way.

Won't the above present several obvious problems (aka opening several hundred can o' worms) in helping facilitate justice and indictments?

The day 0bama, Hillary and Lynch are called to testify is the same day 0bama's transcripts are released, Soros is arrested, and JFK's true assassin is revealed.

Again, we concur. Comey has been embedded as a Shadow Goob Enforcer since the beginning, designed to shield and protect both the Clintons AND 0bama's from scrutiny.

(glad to see you're a bit of a conspiracy-nut ;-) It's better for your health.)

Do you see Ryan or McConnell EVER helping Trump? Or are they in cahoots for the long haul with their Shadow Goob masters?

Caught On Tape: Wasserman Schultz Threatens Police Chief For Investigating Her IT Staff's Crimes

by Tyler Durden
ZeroHedge
May 24, 2017 1:30 PM

[excerpt]

[DCNF = Daily Caller News Foundation]

And today, The Daily Caller's Luke Rosiak reports Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz threatened the chief of the U.S. Capitol Police with “consequences” for holding equipment that she says belongs to her in order to build a criminal case against a Pakistani staffer suspected of massive cybersecurity breaches involving funneling sensitive congressional data offsite.

The Florida lawmaker used her position on the committee that sets the police force’s budget to press its chief to relinquish the piece of evidence Thursday, in what could be considered using her authority to attempt to interfere with a criminal investigation.

The Capitol Police and outside agencies are pursuing Imran Awan, who has run technology for the Florida lawmaker since 2005 and was banned from the House network in February on suspicion of data breaches and theft.

“My understanding is the the Capitol Police is not able to confiscate Members’ equipment when the Member is not under investigation,” Wasserman Schultz said in the annual police budget hearing of the House Committee On Appropriations’ Legislative Branch Subcommittee.

“We can’t return the equipment,” Police Chief Matthew R. Verderosa told the Florida Democrat.

“I think you’re violating the rules when you conduct your business that way and you should expect that there will be consequences,” Wasserman Schultz said.

As one of eight members of the Committee on Appropriations’ Legislative Branch subcommittee, Wasserman Schultz is in charge of the budget of the police force that is investigating her staffer and how he managed to extract so much money and information from members.

In a highly unusual exchange, the Florida lawmaker uses a hearing on the Capitol Police’s annual budget to spend three minutes repeatedly trying to extract a promise from the chief that he will return a piece of evidence being used to build an active case.

“If a Member loses equipment and it is found by your staff and identified as that member’s equipment and the member is not associated with any case, it is supposed to be returned. Yes or no?” she said.

Police tell her it is important to “an ongoing investigation,” but presses for its return anyway.

The investigation is examining members’ data leaving the network and how Awan managed to get Members to place three relatives and a friend into largely no-show positions on their payrolls, billing $4 million since 2010.

The congresswoman characterizes the evidence as “belonging” to her and argues that therefore it cannot be seized unless Capitol Police tell her that she personally, as opposed to her staffer, is a target of the investigation.

When TheDCNF asked Wasserman Schultz Monday if it could inquire about her strong desire for the laptop, she said “No, you may not.” After TheDCNF asked why she wouldn’t want the Capitol Police to have any evidence they may need to find and punish any hackers of government information, she abruptly turned around in the middle of a stairwell and retreated back to the office from which she had come.

Her spokesman, David Dameron, then emerged to say “We just don’t have any comment.”

Though on the surface Wasserman Schultz would have been a victim of Awan’s scam, she has inexplicably protected him, circumventing the network ban by re-titling him as an “adviser” instead of technology administrator.

Politico described him and his wife, Hina Alvi, as having a “friendly personal relationship” with both Wasserman Schultz and Rep. Gregory Meeks of New York.

That baffled a Democratic IT staffer, who said

“I can’t imagine why she’d be that good of friends with a technology provider.”

“Usually if someone does bad stuff, an office is going to distance themselves” rather than incur political fallout for a mere staffer.

Wasserman Schultz resigned as Chairman of the Democratic National Committee in 2016 after Wikileaks published thousands of internal emails obtained by an as-yet unidentified hacker.

Comey Cancels Wednesday Hearing with House So He Can Talk to FBI Predecessor Mueller Who’s Heading Russia Probe

Former FBI Director James Comey who was fired by President Donald Trump earlier this month apparently has asked to postpone his scheduled meeting Wednesday with Congress so he can first speak with Special Counsel.

NeverTrumper Republican Congressman Jason Chaffetz, Chairman of the Oversight & Government Reform Committee, tweeted out yesterday:

Spoke with Comey. He wants to speak with Special Counsel prior to public testimony. Hearing Wed postponed. @GOPoversight”

Won't the above present several obvious problems (aka opening several hundred can o' worms) in helping facilitate justice and indictments?

Yes and Gowdy is just the guy to open that can of worms. Comey has to know that.

Thanks for the update....Nope, I obviously didn't hear the latest.

Was it the prerogative of Chaffetz to grant Comey his demand for a postponement?

Already, Comey's weaseling out and trying to stall for time with his seditious co-conspirators.

The MO of all these Democrats and anyone connected to 0bama and the Clintons is exactly the same:

Use weasel words, non-answers, out-right lies, weaseling-out, stalling, obstruction, roadblocks, mis-remembering, NOT-remembering, no-recall, dis-info, ambiguous testimony, and finally...pleading the 5th. Oh. And "accidenting" those who threaten their little satanic kingdom. WITH impunity. WITHOUT repercussions. NO indictments. NO jail. A FREE license to act as Gestapo with 'Get-Out-Of-Jail' card. Now how can that be??

0bama's fascist officials (including Hitlery, Lerner, and Holder) when cornered and questioned have practically laughed in the faces of the members of various inquisitors and given the middle finger. They have been THAT confident that they have immunity.

Q: What do Roger Ailes, Seth Rich, Antonin Scalia, Joan Rivers, Andrew Breitbart (his Coroner), the Hawaiian BC official (HER coroner), etal all have in common?

Chaffetz could do that or issue a subpoena, likely having Comey take the 5th.

Note that Trump has hired a lawyer to represent presidential interests in this matter (the general matter, not specifically a Comey-Mueller meeting). It may be that the administration will not permit an ex parte meeting between Comey and Mueller (sort of like Clinton and Lynch on the tarmac). If a meeting is permitted, the administration may insist on having their legal counsel there, and an accurate record kept.

And today, The Daily Caller's Luke Rosiak reports Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz threatened the chief of the U.S. Capitol Police with “consequences” for holding equipment that she says belongs to her in order to build a criminal case against a Pakistani staffer suspected of massive cybersecurity breaches involving funneling sensitive congressional data offsite.

Strange that they don't identify the equipment.

I assume it has to be something like some Cisco routers for Wasserman's office.

You can set up something like that as a reverse firewall (to allow outsiders into the House network). I'm not sure whether they are allowed to create backdoors for a congresscritter's home offices back in their district or not.

Hard to imagine why she is so desperate to get back such ordinary equipment. Her behavior does make her requests look pretty suspicious.

And why would she be so personally involved with some mere IT hirelings? It makes little sense to me.

Abid, Imran, and Jamal Awan

Their names should have told somebody something.

It is my understanding that the Capitol Police seized all of the computer equipment from her office and others; whatever was there to seize.

Hard to imagine why she is so desperate to get back such ordinary equipment.

It's not hard to imagine that it is being held as evidence of crimes. Her overpaid employees apparently accessed congressional material for which they did not have proper authorization. They may have been "authorized" to hack for Debbie. It would seem likely that the hard drives tell an interesting story. It may be that the equipment is ordinary, but the content is likely to be quite special.

You'd think they would just image the drives onto backup drives and return them after swapping the drives. That way, the original drives would be retained for evidence and Blabbermouth-Schultz would have to shut up.

OTOH, Debbie is probably ready to kill herself if all her whiny millennial staffers can't Facebook while playing Farmville. She needs some shiny gadget to keep them from going catatonic.

There is that. However, in 25 years as an officer that was the only assignment where there was such an odd atmosphere.

A bit more on what Blabbermouth-Schultz is bitching about.

HotAir: Debbie Wasserman Schultz warns police chief of ‘consequences’ for refusing to return her laptop

The Capitol Hill police are investigating procurement theft involving equipment stolen from as many as 20 members of Congress. The thefts were allegedly carried out by a Pakistani IT specialist named Imran Awan and several members of his family. Awan has worked for Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz as a technology adviser since 2005 so it is believed that her office could be involved in the investigation, though no arrests have been made.

According to a source who spoke to the Daily Caller, the laptop in question was used by Awan and was found “hidden in an unused crevice of the Rayburn House Office Building.” Wasserman Schultz’ office is in the Longworth building. Police seized the laptop believing it could be important to their investigation. Obviously, Wasserman Schultz is claiming the laptop belongs to her and therefore should be returned regardless of who was using it or what information might be on it.

Monday the Daily Caller reported that Awan’s wife had left the country and moved to Pakistan.

That sounds like evidence. Good luck getting that back anytime soon.

Regular "Joes" like us can demand a piece of property which becomes evidence all day and would just get a polite 'you must wait' answer. I guess she thinks she is special.

DWS might have to explain why one of her office's computers was in an unused crevice of the Rayburn House Office Building and unaccounted for. What were the access limitations of this "unused crevice?" Why was the laptop not recovered when the access of the brothers Awan was revoked? Who, on paper, supposedly was maintaining custody of this laptop? What was the sensitivity of the information on the laptop? Police to DWS: mine, not yours, at least for now.

Wonder if Weiner just borrowed it for a weekend and promised to return it.

If it wasn't actually used by DWS, they should just ignore it. If it was loaned to someone not even on her staff, she has little claim to it.

My first thought for that would be that they were using a Reaver Pro program (or similar newer program) to crack wireless routers and penetrate other (GOP) networks in the House. You could hide it to let it crack the encrypted network and to serve as a relay once it penetrated the target network.

Their access to the computer systems was removed in February 2017, but they were not immediately removed from employment.

http://www.politico.com/story/2017/02/house-staff-criminal-investigation-234714

House staffers under criminal investigation still employed [HUH??!?]

[House Democrats Delayed Dismissal Of IT Staff 'Hackers' Because They Were Muslim American]

I know I'm late to the game here, but this s#it just can NOT be made up in any fictional story.

Wasserman-Schultz was the DNC Head Honcho! Why isn't HER head rolling?? Or ANY on the above involved Muzzie IT-connected Democrats?? INCLUDING Hitlery OR 0Bammy?? These are HIGH CRIMES! The entire "leaking" apparatus has been mainlined directly to WaPo/NYT FROM the Democrat Party, and still is. Bottom Line: This sabotage makes Watergate seem like a littering charge...and obviously authorized and directly connected to 0bama and his Muzzie infested Admin.

Justice-Delayed because...because THEY ARE MOOOOOSLEM?? And is THAT why Andre Carson is getting away with bloody murder? (Moreover, is the Muslim-American hyphen is supposed to lend weight to some kind of fake patriotism and respect??)

The reason these traitors and insider hackers aren't immediately dismissed is because they were obviously are ERASING and SCRUBBING whatever evidence they need to separate and distance Wasserman-Schultz, Carson, 0bama, Clinton, and other traitors from what are HIGH CRIMES. And the depth of this conspiracy to control, manipulate, and STEAL a Presidential Election. Why are there yet un-constructed gallows??

Ryan and McConnell are obviously not bothered by 0bama's guys bugging GOP offices as well as Trump and his guys. THEY are guilty as sin.

Apparently Trump has been neutered enough to prevent him from ferreting out the entire spy network, which includes the Spook Connection.

IMO, this story and source of most of the insider spying and leaks is THE MOST underplayed, under-reported egregious indicting story of the entire collusive effort to undermine the Presidency of Donald Trump. And STILL it's relatively ignored by a MSM that is guilty itself of countless cases of High Crimes.

Many of us had already believed the NWO had quietly taken over the reigns of gubmint with the coronation of Poppy Bush. Once 0bama was made President with his phantom bonafides, that notion was pretty much confirmed.

As though 8 years of openly flouting Constitutional violations, high crimes, perjury, WHILE 0bama and his cabal have literally been laughing at Congress during Hearings AND at Trump wasn't enough; And now the overt undermining and sabotaging by unsourced reports, supposed "insiders," judges that supersede and negate Trump's EOs -- as well as overt illegalspying on an elected President with impunity?

Geez -- Who here believes the corporation known as "THE USA" hasn't already been taken over in a soft coup? It is ridiculously naive to believe otherwise.

That is a reasonable surmise.
