But it was all a conspiracy theory right?
shills WILL be working OT today. You can tell because theyre all over this on twatter like locusts blacking out the sun.
Like watching watery shit draining through a rusty screen.....I’ll make the popcorn!!!!
I can't come up with a punchy portmanteau made up of "tsunami" and "diarrhea."
Hot brown wave
Shartnado
"Tsumarhea"
Poopnado!
tsunamarrhea
Winner. Of a field rich in cultural contributions.
Does this mean a shit storm is coming, Mr. Lahey?
Good. We will shitpost in the shade.
At this point we don't need to, we've entered the end of the movie where it's time to start pushing back.
I hear and you and totally respect what you are saying.
That was Mr. Burns.
That's the bottom line right there. MSM ain't gonna do shit until the handcuffs come out.
I'm sure they are.
WTF does that mean? It was all SOP? It was approved by the NSA. The NSA has some explaining to do IMHO.
Unmasking isn't the problem necessarily.. its when you leak it to the media... which happened... then it becomes an illegal act.
Unmasking for political purposes is expressly forbidden by DNI regulations, so yes, unmasking is the problem.
It was not approved ......
You can’t unmask Americans.
You also can’t spy on a political opponent.
But it WAS approved. You and I conspire to rob a bank. I approve you to go in, pull a gun, and rob the tellers. Your robbery WAS approved. See how this works?
No I don’t. If you told me to rob a bank I would tell you to screw yourself
If you told me to unmask an American......I would say go F**k yourself.
That’s how it works.
If you can’t do the time don’t do the crime!
We are dependent on Barr, not holding ny breath!
He will be judged in the end. The legal process is a slow one and we owe Trump at least that we heed his advice and give Barr the presumption of that he is acting honorably until real evidence to the contrary comes out.
Filtered and laundered through the mainstream media.
Not only wasn’t there a predicate, the predicate was fabricated by them
Read what it says at the top that 16 people were authorized to unmask but the list contains more than double that who unmasked. Also the list contains several requests from ambassadors to Italy, treasury department etc which had no reason to be unmasking an incoming national security advisor call.
DING DING DING.
Mifsud "take 10k in cash, Papa D"
"Why? I don't want it."
"Just take it."
Papa D returns to US
FBI "Where's the cash?"
Weird.
As silly as it sounds, yes, this is exactly what happened. Lol
Yeah he wrote a great book about the whole sage which is now more relevant than ever.
And Yes MIfsuf is intelligence.
The good thing about it just goes to show how clean Trump is when they have to fabricate shit to try to take it down. In Art of the Deal Trump talks about getting back at his enemies one way or another..
Papa D has been saying Italy is way more involved & no one is talking about it. Also, after the DNC randomly came out & said they def don’t know Mifsud, but assumed he was probably dead (wat?), he was found living in Rome.
OH! And, Barr, et al went to Rome soon after this info came out.
https://www.ilfoglio.it/esteri/2019/04/18/news/missing-mifsud-was-hidden-in-rome-250522/
Winner, winner, chicken dinner!
And just for laughs, what country do you see when you look south from Italy?
Obama authorized a shit ton of people to receive his classified PDB so that he could leak all of the damaging political information he was getting via the spy agencies and it would be harder to track down who the leak came from.
Treasury? Flynn knew money was going out.
This is fucked up if I read it right. You have people in NATO, the Department of Energy, Samantha Power from UN, Treasury...........what fucking kind of investigative powers do these agencies have?
Fun fact: the IRS actually has more armed agents than any other agency
They certainly have more bullets.
Hey man, there were a lot of people to spy on. Had to farm it out.
It's a crime that with a possible 10 year sentence.
We now reiterate their bs excuse to them when they now contradict the facts!
It was just a coincidence that about 35 Obama officials asked for the unmasking on the same couple of days.
One might wonder, why did they need so many people requesting the umasking, once it was unmasked, anyone with proper security clearance can view it? Maybe it was to cover for the person who leaked it to the press? Much harder to determine when so many requested the unmasking.
THAT is why Rudy is around, RICO motherfucker, he basically wrote it. All it requires is ongoing criminal enterprise, a few other boxes, and BAM!! One hand does not need to know what the other 30+ were doing. Anyone involved gets the full bill.
I'm kinda sorta liking this guy Grenell.
SPEZ: Politically speaking.
Grenell 2024.
TRUST SESSIONS
unsarcastically yes
yeah, we knew ya'll see it eventually
Good lord, Q had nothing to do with this, you Q-tard. This was painstakingly uncovered through serious work by Nunes, Sundance, and many others, not some larping faggot posting pseudo-military code.
It is demonstrable, not simply my opinion, that the case for the coup was worked out by people other than larping Q faggots posting riddles and mysteries.
How does anything revealed the last few days show that the many Qs are not a larp? You're just embarrassed, or should be, that you fell for that nonsense.
"But it's true because it unifies us!!" Good Lord, man. Get a grip.
oooh, I think its working this time. people will definitely not read any kyoo now thanks to your compelling comments.
Demonstrate it then.
Pro-tip: You can't.
I can demonstrate it simply by giving you the link to the Last Refuge, which has carefully mapped out the coup attempt, beginning to do so long before Q.

https://qmap.pub
Q'd
First Biden said he wasn't aware of the investigation of Flynn, then that was proved to be a lie so he said it had nothing to do with him. Now that also is proven to be a lie.
...youre the DNC nominee!!!
well, like he keeps saying, his VP choice is key to his campaign in case he suddenly leaves office.
Sponsored by the Media
...and...and...you know the thing!
Calm down Corn Pop
Listen fat
Looks like we got a push up contest brewing here. You-you-you-you want to go behind the gym?
Cmon man yer getting nervous!
Listen Fat...............
Three strikes and you get a book deal!
Joe Biden unmasked Flynn on Jan 12, 2017. What is so important about this date? It’s the same day the Washington Post publishes the David Ignatius opinion piece story about General Flynn’s calls with Kislyak. This is where the Logan Act setup the FBI started!
The bigger deal is Obama's chief of staff requesting on 1/5/17, the same day of the Oval Office meeting where he told Yates about Flynn and the Logan act.
In Biden’s defense, he’s fucking senile.
FUCK THAT SHIT. He's faking, and if he's not IDGAF. The motherfucker is a child molester and a treasonous whore who tried to murder this country.
Him being senile, whether its true or not, and I fucking doubt it is, is not a defense for the kinds of SHIT he's been pulling here.
LOL
Dems: "Yeah, go easy on him. He's senile"
Also Dems: "Lets vote Joe for president!"
It's his turn...
LOL I was being sarcastic. Hang them all!
I don't think he's that good of an actor.
Do you think you would be if your life was on the line?
Trying to keep all the lies straight will do that to a person
That'll and general decrepitude should get him compassionate release after a few years served if he lives that long.
Video of Biden claiming he was briefed, but he still didn't know what was going on...
https://thedonald.win/p/FfkLBWBH/x/c/
Trump tweeted this out earlier today lol
Trump already knows the facts, he is playing the media perfectly.
Neoliberals don't need to tell the truth, they always tell the best lie they think you can't disprove.
and when that fails they call you racist
Anything significant break in the news on or around Jan 5, 2017, the day 0’s Chief of Staff made an unmasking request?
That was the day when pretty much everything happened.
That's day of the Oval Office meeting where he told Yates about Flynn and the Logan Act.
I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not, but Jan 5th is D-Day for the anti-Trump plot meeting in the Oval Office.
Only thing other than the oval office meeting that I could think of would be Clapper testifying to the Senate armed services committee: http://archive.is/BsBDM
I don't honestly know, but I've heard the position described as "the Chief of Staff is the President when the President is not in the room" so it stands to reason they would have the exact same clearance level as the President in order to properly be able to advise him and execute his directives.
Bob Ama is waiting..........
Why do you think the distinction matters?
This is a horrifyingly long list.
ONLY 30 PEOPLE IN THE GOV CAN. MOST OF THESE AREN'T LOL
Isn’t the NATO guy Litzenburger (sp?) someone Trump talks about being a huge fan?
one of the redacted names is the deputy assistant to the acting undersecretary to the ambassador to Timbuktu
a lot treasury officials, makes me wonder if they were trying to incidentally collect financial info on Trump (they were)
I’m betting they already have Trump’s tax returns but there wasn’t anything in there so it’s better to act like they don’t have them and Bad Orange Man won’t gibs.
He gets audited all the time of course there is nothing.
If there was something, we would know because it would have leaked instantly.
I believe Trump employee John Miller did leak some of Trump's tax returns.
https://money.cnn.com/2017/03/14/media/rachel-maddow-donald-trump-2005-taxes/index.html
That was soooo funny
They had them the first minute, they are probably stellar. He probably paid more taxes than all of Washington combined.
THANK YOU! Holy shit! Obama’s Chief of Staff, lotta Syria Group, and... BIDEN! What might be more important are the names/positions we don’t recognize. This means they’re big players, but have remained relatively under the radar to even the well-informed public. How many are still there? How many have moved on & where are they now?
Because Flynn knows Obama was funding and arming ISIS in Syria.
But what is/who are The Syria Group?
I assume some group of IC cucks and State Dept douchebags.
Wonder whose names are under those black boxes
But who were they unmasking and why?
This feels like it's finally happening. Biden played dumb and said he knew nothing about the Flynn investigation. Yet, somehow he sought to unmask Flynn.
hes fucking faking, the man is a child molester.
Oh yeah? You think that'd be so hard to fake if YOUR FUCKING LIFE is on the line? He's going to FRY if he can't think of a way out of being punished for his crimes. I say he's faking.
WRONG, he is a Democrat
both can be true
but they arent. This man is staring down the barrel of an execution for what he's done. The whole normie world is about to find out that he's a treasonous serial child molester who sold out our country.
You think he wouldn't LIE about something that might be his only ticket out of the electric chair? You think that even IF he is in cognitive decline (which he isnt), that it creates sudden, profound and permanent amnesia? You think hes just NEVER lucid, and that is entire memory is inaccessible 24/7? Have you ever seen someone go through cognitive decline? Its a slow process. But watch him SUDDENLY have oatmeal for brains when they start to question his INSANELY ILLEGAL activites. Are you just gonna buy that horseshit when he tries to pull it off?
What is ‘criminal malingering’?
“Malingering” – faking a sickness for an ulterior motive – is surprisingly common. Here are some of the ways in which doctors tell real illnesses from false ones. https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20190521-malingering-when-criminals-fake-diseases
I LOVE this link, ty!!!!
If they’re going to insist on playing the game of “Biden is competent”, well then I’ll play, too.
Biden is toast at this point. The only question is who they’re going to try to replace him with.
My money is on Cuomo
Would that be the same Cuomo who sneered, “America was never great!”
yep. my money's on him too. I can't think of anyone else they would run right now.
Kills old people pass it on.
That dude might not even win NY with how the people are turning on him.
You would think, but most of the clown world out there still talk and treat this guy like he's some sort of savior. Who knows anymore
that somehow never matters to dems in the national.
I want to be wrong, but I suspect, it would be Bernie Sandars -- only cause they could regain his followers back.
They hate him. He will never be their nominee. EVERYTHING theyre going through was because they did NOT want sanders in. Seth rich, rigging the '16 DNC, getting trounced in the last election, willingly letting their youth/progressive vote go straight to hell this time around.... all because they just can't handle the idea of Bernie running.
They'd sooner pick Greta.
They won't, because she'd actually have a real shot. They're inept narcissists, so it'll be somebody like Cuomo. And the other thing is, has anyone been keeping an eye on Joe's VP? Because dollars to donuts that's who'll really be pres after six months or so.
Or six seconds of it's a Clinton .
That would actually be the smart play, but no fucking way it happens. The heads of the DNC legitimately hate her.
He actually didn't play dumb. He was asked about Flynn "investigation" and he said he knew nothing. Then proven wrong, he immediately said that he thought the question was about the Flynn "prosecution". That is a very sharp deflection.
Great point.
Biden is trying the Bill Clinton “didn’t inhale” defense. He was in the room when the coup was plotted, but he didn’t listen.
He tried that defense. Now, we know he directly unmasked Flynn.
Worse. Unmask the other Americans. Flynn wasn't unmasked because he was a primary on the investigation.
Uh oh, the gym is on a single engine plane.
Sad KEK
It is a little funny that people here think Barr both doesn't know and doesn't care to do his job. He's intentionally staying quiet, there's no reason for him to do anything else.
I love my fellow 'pedes, but some of the younger ones here are on the impatient side.
theyre shills.
Or we will.
He will write a strongly worded letter and remind us of our principles and ...
God, I wish we had Sidney Powell or Tom Fitton as AG
Powell yes, Fitton no. Not that he's not an ass kicker to the Nth degree, but he's VERY principled. Which is a good thing generally, but much like we needed the bruiser that is Trump to fight the swamp, we can't get by with someone as principled as Fitton.
By the way this is in NO WAY a criticism of Mr Fitton, if my children have half of his integrity and drive, I'll consider my job as a parent well done. I just need someone who can get in the gutter and choke a motherfucker out.
Blow some bagpipes
From Mollie Hemmingway
My eyes are BUGGING out at the 5th of January entry here from Obama's Chief of Staff, even more than the Biden entry on the 12th of January.
Joe Biden unmasked Flynn on Jan 12, 2017. What is so important about this date? It’s the same day the Washington Post publishes the David Ignatius opinion piece story about General Flynn’s calls with Kislyak. This is where the Logan Act setup the FBI started!
Obama going the Chicago Way. His chief of staff requests records day of the Oval Office January 5 meeting with comey and Yates. Making sure Obama’s name not on the record. That’s the Chicago way.
The Chicago way is stuffing the ballot box and making Barry's bathhouse friends disappear permanently.
YES YES YES... Proves Obama started this shit. Proves it!!!
And will we see a headline in the NYT above the fold "What did Obama know, and when did he know it?"? Fuck no!
Old grey lady my ass. More like old blown out gutter whore.
We also have to keep in mind that the first time Kislyak and Flynn talked (that we know of) was December 28, 2016. That's the same day Obama decided to sanction Russia for muh interfering.
A lot of those requests are before that date. So what were they really looking for?
Why did 5 random Treasury officials have the authority to unmask????
They don’t. Read the top, it says 16 people were authorized but the list has more than double that.
Several treasury department as well as ambassador to Italy and UN
Ahhh, thanks, good catch. They were basically letting anyone they wanted to see stuff unmask.
It says the list is who received the unmasked info (including the 16 who initially unmasked).
It was from 0bama who allowed intelligence info to get passed around like Pink eye in a freshman dormitory.
He allowed intelligence info to get passed around like Covid-19 in a New York retirement facility.
Looks like some Syrians were unmasking too?
They don't
Let's hear Biden stumble his way through an explanation to this....oh wait, the media will protect him like usual.
im predicting it's probably gonna go like this:
Biden: "The fact of the matter is, we were just operating on the information we had at the time."
Interviewer: "But you said you didn't participate in actions taken against flynn"
Biden (GARBLED DENCHER NOISES INTENSIFIES): "Listen, what did or didn't happen then is not relevant to the crisis going on right now. Covid19 is killing thousands! Trump is not doing enough! Cmon man!"
"Listen, Fat -- if you think that I had something to do with any of those claims by you or anyone who might be... well, you know, of course all of that is... that.
LOOK, FAT!
Joe Biden unmasked Flynn on Jan 12, 2017. What is so important about this date? It’s the same day the Washington Post publishes the David Ignatius opinion piece story about General Flynn’s calls with Kislyak. This is where the Logan Act setup the FBI started!
EDIT: Obama’s Chief of Staff did an unmasking request Jan 5th, 2017.
EDIT 2: This list only goes back to Nov 2016. This was going on much longer. All 2016 candidates were probably spied on. Remember when Obama got caught listening into Angela Merkels cellphone in 2013?
They used Biden’s name haha you know his retarded ass didn’t do it himself.
They never thought they'd get caught, she was supposed to win, Russian collusion was supposed work, impeachment was supposed to work. Now, nearly 3 years later we get the info. It was so close to being buried forever. Don't think this is fabricated in the slightest.
The thing about Russian collusion was that it wasn't for impeachment, it was more to punish Trump for running, and to serve as an example to anyone else who dared to fuck with the political class.
It morphed into an investigation when he won, but that's just them playing with the cards that were dealt (by themselves!).
He signed the request. That's why it's Biden and not some other ambassador or chief of staff. I think the news item leaked and he wanted the relevant intelligence from the meeting.
But you can't prove Biden ever knew anything because of his mental illnesses and cauterized brain (twice).
So he's off Scot free.
We'll see...
In the court of public opinion, he's a victim. Those children molested him!
He never asked to have his leg hairs pulled.
By those roaches
I don't assume that's true though. That's what we're supposed to think because that's what it's supposed to seem like. I highly doubt the country is truthfully bitterly divided 50/50 on most things. It think's that's one of the biggest illusions that's going to be exposed once were on the other side of the Trump presidency.
I mean, it's clearly a joke.
But so is Biden and you said 50\50 can't even see that, so I'll rely on your generosity.
...wat...?
Can’t wait to hear Juan’s spin on this on The Five today. He’s always good for a laugh.
"To ME!, this seems like a waste of resources on politics when there is a pandemic sweeping the Nation"
~ Juan Williams
I changed the channel and never went back to fox after that. Hope they are happy.
Juan is just "controlled" opposition to bait the TDS sufferers into watching the dreaded right wing FOX. Not that FOX isn't sliding into the leftist media abyss ever since the metoo's got rid of Roger Ailes.
I might go back today to see if Juan is shedding salty tears.
I love how Greg Greg Gutfeld is getting tired of his B.S. I miss Bob, sure he was a Dem but his miss speak about drugs, booze, and hookers as he talked about his old campaigns in the 80's was Gold and GG actually respected him on a lot of levels.
Oh I'm sure he's going to try something. He just won't be able to succeed at all
Juan's starting to look like he's cringing when he comments lately. I'm not sure he even believes what he's saying anymore, but he's under contract not to agree, right? 🤣

Handsome gay man about to fuck deep state in the ass!
Wish we had more honey badgers in government.
I feel this may be another happening... gotta go back to work though. I will await CTH response.
Biden requesting it 7 days after everyone else makes me think he was sitting in all these meetings listening to others strategize over what to do about Flynn and no one would tell the old geezer what was going on so just like the old VP from House of Cards Season 1 (the guy who blew a gasket over where he stood and the pen), he was like "fine, I'll get it myself! Then I'll be a cool cat like these others."
Im smart. Not like everybody says. Im smart!!
What did Biden know and when did he forget?
Nyahahaha
MOST OF THESE PEOPLE ARE NOT AUTHORIZED
Wow, they're serious on this one. Usually this kind of stuff gets released on Friday late afternoon.
I bet ol Blago's got a LOT to say myow.
I I I if if if if if okie doke
spez: okie okie okie doke
Chew soap.
HEADS. ROLLING. NOW!
There was no reason to unmask Gen Flynn, a U.S. person, if they had deemed his conversation with Kislyak as kosher. It’s a violation of his constitutional rights. They now have to justify that convo as illegal to prove they didn’t violate his rights.
Some of the newly released transcripts show that they knew the Logan act thing was bullshit (knew that conversations like this one through transition period was normal for incoming administrations), but went through with it anyway.
The FBI closed the case, for fucks sake. They found no "derogatory information" on Flynn. Someone (Strzok) kept it open. They knew it was all bullshit, Strzok/Page/Comey/Obama didn't care.
Flynn told the world Obama was fucking around with ISIS, and that couldn't go unpunished.
https://www.scribd.com/document/459199066/us-v-flynn
And the document says it was all legal. Nothing to see here.
Edit: Well, it says 16 AUTHORIZED individuals. I retract "legal".
BIden caught lying again:
The PRESIDENT'S CHIEF OF STAFF... on THE DAY of the infamous briefing with the entire cabal of conspirators.
YES YES YES This is bigger sleepy Joe playing catch-up 7 days later.
Biden will claim that someone made it under his name.
Trump had better be ready to ask: "Who?"
Holy shit the DNC comm. director Hinojosa can't even talk right now, total meltdown. Fucking brutal.
HAHAHAHAHA Biden Is on the List and Tells the Media before hand he knew noting about it. HAHAHAHAHA
He may not have. I smell Valerie Jarrett and Obama himself, using Biden's credentials to hide their fingerprints. Personally, I don't think Biden could find his way out of a paper bag without his handlers, then or now.
Barry gave Joe a medal for all of this. Joe look so proud to be a loyal henchman.
What a chump Biden is. Got played like the fool he is. Not only that, when all this shakes out, his son is gonna end up in Leavenworth.
Joe Biden? Lmao woops
Samantha Power made unmasking requests seven times, Clapper made three requests, Brennan made two requests, Comey made a request, McDonough made one request, and on Jan. 12, 2017, then-Vice President Biden made one request.
😲
Obama ran all this shit.
LUCY.... you got some splanin to do.
Trump press beating in one hour, 4 EST
And these people said they didn't know shit about unmasking. This is direct proof of their lie to the country to cover up their illegal activities and abuse of power.
No way Biden makes it that long as the candidate.
he has to do it before election, no way we can risk them taking power again, the american electorate must understand the depths of criminality the dnc party was involved, at this point it would be borderline treasonous if he dosnt
Bill Hemmer is actually doing a decent job of asking her questions. She is deflecting SO HARD.
Absolutely, I'll refer to your username for whats happening.
funny how they wanted to impeach him before this list came out.
Ukraine was never going to hurt Biden's chance at getting elected, he does that all on his own just fine.
But with this, that mother fucker should just drop out now and go right to jail.
Saw the whole thing. Couldn't even answer a single question Bill Hemmer asked her.
Hemmer: Asks question about Flynn.
DNC crazy bitch: "TrUmP iS tAkInG pPe FrOm DoCtOrS!"
You mean she didn't call Hemmer a raycist yet for asking her tough questions?
Link please!!!
https://youtu.be/BCiL7GdF6lM
Found it. 24:25. Thanks!
YOU DA MVP!!!! TYTY
SPEZ: OH MY GOD KEK She is FLIPPING OUT!!!!!! THIS IS AWESOME. THIS IS AWESOME. THIS IS SOFA KING AWESOMMMEEEEE!!!!
That’s what it says at the top of the document. Some unmasked and shared it, everyone on the list had access to the incoming DNI’s info, including the janitors at the IRS.
Grenell / Nunes 2024 - FUCK COMMUNISM
I would actually vote for that combo. Nice one!
Finish off Trump’s job on the commie swap after his 3rd therm of course!
Grenell is going places.
Obama's in deep, deep shit.
At this point, I'd settle for six inches of shit for Obama. As long as it ends with a no knock warrant and a set of cuffs.
Apparently Gernell is not going to testify next week.
I'd rather have Grenell keep doing what he's doing. He can testify when he's no longer "acting" and has time for that bullshit grandstanding in front of congress.
https://twitter.com/CBS_Herridge/status/1260635872271228928
I recommend watching this first before looking at that list: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lbM1bW7GiuQ
This is a link to NSA Director Rogers explaining unmasking and who is authorized to do it and why.
TYSM FOR LINK!
Why did Creepy Joe need to know Flynn's name?
muddy the waters / deniability on who leaked it or who abused. it?
Stupid question (sorry):
What does unmask mean in this context?
Best I understand it: Wiretap intelligence gathered that contains the name of a citizen not under investigation (Flynn) has to have the name redacted before the intelligence is circulated. Should there be a need to know the identity for intelligence purposes, unmasking can be requested. It is against the law to unmask a name for political purposes.
Okay thanks. So does it have to be proven now that it was "for political purposes" or is that much already clearly evident?
Sorry I just want to make sure I'm clear on everything before I open my big mouth about it.
I should probably clarify, really, the unmasking has to be required to perform the duties of the requestor, so a bit more strict than I said. But yes, if it is proven that the unmasking was not needed specifically for intel reasons, a crime has been committed. Whether anyone will actually prosecute that, I somehow doubt it. Look for the youtube link someone posted about the specifics of unmasking.Was very informative.
Thank you! And yes I would love that link if you find it.
So far as we can tell, it was for political purposes and the Logan Act infraction was manufactured as justification. Correct me if I'm wrong here 'pedes
