Barring the fact that the FNIC outright refused to print even a single critical word about the Obama administration, the Republicans pushed back on the many half-truths, alternative facts, and misstatements by the president and attempted to paint him in the proper truthful light. That was an effort that would prove fruitless because they were not only combatting the angelic image being put forth by the FNIC, nor merely the incarnation of the Limbaugh Theorem, but they were bashing their collective heads up against the wall of a massively corrupt intelligence Deep State community that didn’t care a wit about Congressional power or authority.
In fact, to this day, the FBI continues to operate as what Tucker Carlson calls “its own country.” An organization that falls directly under the authority of the Department of Justice which, in turn, falls directly under the authority of the Commander-In-Chief, Donald Trump, defies repeated requests by its own bosses, let alone Congressional officials, and is withholding information that is required by House and Senate committees attempting to look into multiple charges of misconduct of both the Obama administration and the intelligence community.
Is it any wonder that they were instrumental in enabling a coward president to hide his weaknesses?
Republicans volubly disputed the president’s more laughable claims—the attack on the Benghazi compound was just a protest gone bad, al Qaeda was on the run, ISIS was the terrorist junior varsity—but the establishment media, certain that Obama’s predecessor had consistently exaggerated the threat, showed little interest in challenging Obama or the intelligence agencies that often supported his spurious case.
ODNI dismissively swatted away questions about the absurd claims in the release with absurd claims about the document collection itself: The unreleased documents weren’t interesting or important, just terrorist trash of little interest to anyone. The documents being withheld would do little to enhance our understanding of al Qaeda or the jihadist threat more generally, they said.
This is what the politicization of intelligence looks like.
The entire push to hide the documents recovered by the bin Laden raid was, pure and simple, an effort to get Barack Hussein Obama reelected. He was being hammered by Republicans for being soft on terror, with an ACTUAL inability to bring himself to call terrorists what they actually were: radical Islamist jihadists. Instead, he opted for the yellow-streak version of “enemy combatants.” Additionally, he insisted that everyone in the administration (and afterward, the entire government structure) to refer to these murderous cowards the same way. In fact, this was going on at the same time that he and his shadow weasels in the various departments were scurrying about pronouncing his verdict that the real threat in America was the “Right-wing Conservative Christian” who believed in the 2nd Amendment! As if the 2nd Amendment were a fairytale!
In the spring of 2012, with the Republican presidential primaries nearing an end and shortly before the first anniversary of the successful raid on bin Laden’s compound, Obama’s National Security Council hand-picked 17 documents to be provided to the Combating Terrorism Center at West Point for analysis. (Obama’s NSC would later hold back two of those documents. One of them, laying out the deep ties between the Afghan Taliban and al Qaeda leadership, would complicate Obama administration efforts to launch negotiations with the Taliban, according to an explanation the NSC’s Doug Lute offered to West Point.) The West Point documents were shared with Obama-friendly journalists. Their conclusion was the only one possible, given the documents they were provided: At the time of his death, Osama bin Laden was frustrated and isolated, a relatively powerless leader of a dying organization. In the summer and fall of 2012, Obama would use this theme as the main national security rationale for his reelection: Al Qaeda was alternately “on the run” or “decimated” or “on the path to defeat.”
Read on the following page about how the Obama administration actually shelved the 470,000 documents, amazingly choosing to leave them untranslated and unscrubbed, and, in essence, denying the intelligence community from gaining valuable and usable information that could literally save the lives of our troops and our citizens!
Our government only has one political party. The republicans and democrats are all the same. Perpetuating crimes against the constitution and pur bill of rights. Obama should be prosecuted but the republicans have something to hide also so they don’t want the democrats ratting them out and that’s what we fear the most. We must wash our ha d’s of this government and initiate the Convention of States and reform pur democracy. The sooner the better!
Did Julian Assange also tipoff and reveal to the Russians that the Clinton’s were scamming the Russians and America’s for hundreds of millions of $ in the “Uranium One” scheming plot to sell American uranium to Russia?
Russian communists may believe their fellow Communist sympathizers Obama and Hillary had duped them so the Russians took revenge during the Democrats / Communists presidential run. No honor among communists.
The Obama administration and DNC have desperately been working 24/7 compromising and corrupting the US justice system to keep their own corruption out of sight and creating fraudulent stories about President Trump.
I am stunned , but then again I’m not ! If these traitors are allowed to get away with all that they have done …”America” will never be back !
No one ever thought that Obama and Hillary were liars, cheats, and downright nasty people??? I certainly did.
As I read the article it became crystal clear that I (and many, many others) had been right to call for the indictment, arrest, trial, and sentencing of Barack H. Obama for the crime of treason, amongst other high crimes and misdemeanors. The facts stand that Obama essentially enacted a “gag order” on the collection of documents obtained through the raid on the bin Laden compound in Abbotobad so that he could get re-elected and give aid and comfort to Iran, whom is a known hostile actor against the United States which he indeed did do with the Iran Neuclear Deal. This deal was never run through Congress and was enacted through “Executive Privelege” by Barack H. Obama himself. Thankfully, once President Trump took office, President Trump deep sixed the Obama Iran Neuclear Deal. Although he did put a stop to it, he couldn’t stop the airplane load of cold, hard cash that Obama had sent to Iran prior to the end of his final term as President.
It has been said before, and I shall say it again, “INDICT, ARREST, BRING TO TRIAL, AND SENTENCE Barack H. Obama for high crimes and misdemeanors to include treason against the United States, it’s citizens, and it’s possessions!”. Do this swiftly and soon. Once Obama is arrested, he will undoubtedly sing like a canary and unmask his co-conspirators inside of the DOJ, the National Security Apparatus, and in Congress. The dominoes will fall swiftly and may well hold to Hillary Clinton’s assertion that if she’s taken down she will take half of Washington with her. This has the potential to drain the cesspool of Washington, D.C. that has been allowed to fester for well over thirty years.
bin Laden was dead years before and that is why Extortion 17 took place, to cover up the LIE that Obama had him taken out. Also, bin Laden formerly worked for OUR CIA. 9/11/01 was the BIGGEST LIE perpetrated against us! It was the DEEP STATE who was responsible. PLEASE WAKE UP.
No surprise their, Obama was the most scandalous and Corrupt President of all time…
I smell treason in the air. Hang them all.
Thanks Obama and Hillary , You Both Are Treasonous And Corrupt And DISGUSTING AND DISGRACEFUL And Should Be In JAIL ! ! !
And my question is why would he have told Medevev that he would have more flexibility after he won the re-election.JUST HOW DID HE KNOW HE WAS GOING TO WIN 8 MONTHS OUT FROM THE ELECTION UNLESS THEY RIGGED THE ELECTION! NO MORE ABSENTEE BALLOTING UNLESS YOU ARE STATIONED OVERSEAS!
