The Deep State is in Trouble

in #deepstate7 years ago (edited)

Some fascinating things happening in Congress lately, in case you want to get up to speed!

The video below happened about a week ago. Congressman Jim Jordan is grilling the currrent FBI Director Wray about this former high-level FBI guy Peter Strzok, who was involved in Mueller's "Russian interference" investigation but then removed from it because he was sending anti-Trump text messages. Strzok was also the main person involved in the investigation of Hillary Clinton's private email server, and was the one who changed the language in their findings from "gross negligence" (a crime) to "extreme carelessness".

For some context, when they refer to the "dossier", they're referring to this now discredited report that was written by a private intelligence firm called Fusion GPS. It had some outrageous allegations and was never really taken seriously, even by mainstream media. From Newsweek:

The dossier, first published by BuzzFeed News in January, garnered widespread attention in part to a particularly salacious allegation. It claimed that the Russian FSB spy agency possessed a compromising video of Trump getting Russian prostitutes to urinate on a Moscow hotel room bed once slept on by Obama and his wife, Michelle.

It eventually came out that the report was financed by the Clinton campaign. But what's amazing is that it looks like it was used as evidence to obtain a FISA warrant to spy on the Trump campaign, back when the media was calling Trump crazy for suggesting he was being spied on!

Anyway here's the video from a week ago:

(there's indication Director Wray will be resigning soon)

Then, this happened just three days ago. Rod Rosenstein is Deputy Attorney General under Jeff Sessions (some in the conspiracy media believe Rosenstein is calling the shots at the Justice Dept and Sessions has been compromised). Rosenstein is the one who appointed Mueller to do the Russian interference investigation.

Another person they mention is Bruce Ohr. He was a top Justice Dept official who was demoted because he concealed that he was meeting with Fusion GPS while they were conducting their Trump research. It's now come out that his wife worked directly for Fusion GPS.

Then Congressman Trey Gowdy makes Rosenstein squirm even more!
