SHOCKER: Associated Press and Washington Amazon Post Circle the Wagons Around Dirty Andy McCabe

The hard left progressives who run old media outlets like the AP and WaPo are running scared. Bit by bit, the corpus of the greatest scandal in American history is being exhumed and brought into full view.

As a central figure in the affair, FBI deputy director Andrew McCabe has yet to testify in a public venue about his various conflicts of interest and his untoward actions to protect Hillary Clinton and attack Donald Trump.

The media is currently using two themes to protect McCabe, one more ludicrous than the other, as we shall see.

"Bill Priestap is the FBI Director of Counterintelligence. There’s no way he hasn’t been caught inside the investigative net.

Bill Priestap’s boss, Andrew McCabe has been caught. Bill Priestap’s subordinate, Peter Strzok, has most certainly been caught. And in March 20th 2017 FBI Director Comey pushed Priestap directly in front of the congressional oversight bus.

My hunch is either Bill Priestap is going to be the attempted fall-guy for the entire scheme. -OR- Bill Priestap saw the bus coming and is assisting the swamp-draining DC investigators." --Sundance

A Deep Dive Into "The Timeline of Treason": The McCabe Affair

Over the last few days, I've been adding to the "Timeline of Treason", an exhaustively documented spreadsheet outlining the contours of what may be the greatest political scandal in American history.

In short, it appears that the Obama administration, the Clinton campaign, and the DNC conspired with willing executives in the DOJ and FBI to weaponize government against Donald Trump. This weaponization -- quite similar to how Obama used the IRS, the Bureau of Land Management, the EPA, Health and Human Services, to name but a few -- was designed to target Obama's political opponents. It is the stuff of a third-world country.

But, in all seriousness, Obama always did admire the likes of Castro and Chavez. So why wouldn't he emulate their techniques?

But, I digress. Here are some key observations and questions after review of the timeline related specifically to FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, which should be posed by the FBI Inspector General as well as the House and Senate Intelligence Committees.

MUELLER’S CYNICAL COUP ATTEMPT: An Inept and Conflicted "Investigation" of Non-Existent Collusion

By Matthew Vadum

The unprecedented theft of thousands of likely privileged Trump transition emails by Special Counsel Robert S. Mueller’s investigators is yet more proof that the open-ended fishing expedition is continuing to move forward with its effort to reverse the results of the 2016 election.

News of the misappropriation of the email tranches comes weeks after Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) urged that Mueller quit or be fired, saying the independent prosecutor has “indisputable” conflicts of interest.

“We are at risk of a coup d’état in this country if we allow an unaccountable person with no oversight to undermine the duly-elected president of the United States,” Gaetz said, echoing earlier remarks by writer Michael Walsh who asserts the Left is engaged in a “rolling coup attempt” against President Trump.

QOTD: "To date the investigation into the Fusion GPS-manufactured collusion scandal has focused largely on the firm itself, its allies in the press, as well as contacts in the Department of Justice and FBI. However, if a sitting president used the instruments of state, including the intelligence community, to disseminate and legitimize a piece of paid opposition research in order to first obtain warrants to spy on the other party’s campaign, and then to de-legitimize the results of an election once the other party’s candidate won, we’re looking at a scandal that dwarfs Watergate—a story not about a bad man in the White House, but about the subversion of key security institutions that are charged with protecting core elements of our democratic process while operating largely in the shadows." --Lee Smith

Dispatches From Armageddon

By The Conundrum

Democrats predicted “Armageddon” if tax cuts passed Congress, but the middle class already has several reasons to celebrate.

Earlier today, NBC’s Savannah Guthrie asked Speaker Ryan if he was living in a “fantasy world” for thinking the bill will lead to higher wages and economic growth.

Here are just a few dispatches from said “fantasy world”:

THE CRIMINAL CONSPIRACY OF THE CENTURY: "Makes Watergate look like a third-rate burglary"

By Daniel John Sobieski

As Fox News has reported, Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe has rescheduled his testimony before the House Intelligence Committee with the Justice Department telling the network that it was due to a “routine scheduling error.” More likely it is due to the need for everyone to get their stories straight as the details of the fix that was in for Hillary Clinton are being, er… unmasked and the details of the deep state coup against President Trump bubble to the surface from the depths of the swamp:

…Fox News was told by those familiar with the matter that the intelligence committee is suspicious of the purported scheduling error. One source said they believe the schedule issue arose after Fox News' report Monday night on Department of Justice official Bruce Ohr.

Ohr was recently demoted from one of his two senior posts. Fox News reported that Ohr’s wife, Nellie Ohr, worked through last fall for Fusion GPS, which was behind the anti-Trump dossier…

“McCabe has an Ohr problem,” one congressional source said.

POLITICO: In its Fervor to Secure Iran Deal, Obama Let Hezbollah Smuggle Cocaine Into the U.S.

By Rush Limbaugh

The headline from Politico: “Obama Let Hezbollah Run Cocaine into the U.S. in Order to Facilitate the Iran Deal Getting Done.” I’m gonna tell you, the damage this man and his administration have done to this country is still largely unknown, and it will continue to dribble out, and we will have more revelations of it.

“In 2008, the DEA launched ‘Project Cassandra’ to track Hezbollah’s trafficking of drug and weapons, money laundering and other criminal activities, some of which were happening in the U.S. As Project Cassandra carried on, the Obama administration threw a series of roadblocks in its way, Politico reported Sunday. When investigators sought approval for prosecutions, arrests, and financial sanctions, the Justice Department and Treasury Department officials delayed, hindered, or denied their requests, the report said.

SENATE JUDICIARY CHAIR: McCabe Don’t Need to Go Home, But He Needs to Get the Hell Out o’ the FBI

The prolific Chuck ("No Relation") Ross reports that, at long last, the well-deserved ouster of conflicted FBI chieftan Andrew McCabe may be nigh.

Senate Judiciary Committee chairman Chuck Grassley is calling on Andrew McCabe to be replaced as the FBI’s deputy director... “He oughta be replaced,” Grassley said of McCabe. “And I’ve said that before and I’ve said it to people who can do it...”

...The bureau’s second highest-ranking official, McCabe will be interviewed by the House Intelligence Committee on Tuesday. He will be asked about his role in the Russia investigation and his knowledge about the infamous Trump dossier, the 35-page document written by former British spy Christopher Steele and funded by the Clinton campaign and DNC...

LEVIN: Trump is the most conservative president since Reagan

By Phil Shiver

LevinTV host Mark Levin praised President Trump on his radio program Monday night for having, by his estimation, a very successful first year in office, and called him “the most conservative president since Ronald Reagan.”

Levin credited Trump for his Reaganesque national security strategy speech Monday afternoon, and commended him for what he has accomplished so far despite the relentless opposition. He then called on all Republicans to get behind the president’s agenda, or be dismissed:

In fact, he's been put in a holding cell where he's kept busy & distracted while he's thoroughly investigated & evidence collected of his political fixing.

For the past 11 months, even before DOJ IG started his investigation, Trump & Co. likely knew who the political fixers in the DOJ/FBI were:

The Indictment of James Comey

By Daniel John Sobieski

Now we know: not only did Hillary Clinton show intent in her mishandling of classified materials routed through her private server, but former FBI Director James Comey and his team showed intent in letting her get away with it. These acts have grave implications for not only American national security, but to the rule of law itself.

Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., chairman of the Homeland Security Committee, in a Thursday letter to current FBI Director Christopher Wray, reveals how edits to Comey’s exoneration memo went beyond changing “grossly negligent” to “extremely careless” but edited out content that shows the FBI knew Hillary was intentionally in violation of the Espionage Act but that, since the decision to exonerate her had already been made, they had to submit to the annals of history a lie they agreed upon:

LAWRENCE SELLIN: American Gestapo

By Lawrence Sellin

Any government agency with law enforcement and surveillance authority that uses those powers for political purposes is the definition of a secret police, no better than the Nazi Gestapo or the Soviet KGB.

There is indeed probable cause to conclude, meaning indictable offenses, that employees of the Department of Justice and/or the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), sympathetic to the Democrat Party, used the power of their offices and with the assistance of foreign nationals to influence the 2016 election in favor of Hillary Clinton, first to exonerate her and then obtain information to prevent the election of Donald Trump or to provide a basis for his impeachment should he win.

It is also abundantly clear from the Congressional investigations involving the Department of Justice and the FBI that those institutions of government are protecting themselves at the expense of transparency and accountability to the American people.

In other words, the government employees involved consider the survival of the Deep State more important than the survival of the Constitution. That is the definition of tyranny.

QOTD: "I’m coming more and more to the conclusion that this is a conspiratorial cabal among the fifth column to basically take away the presidency of the United States. This whole thing with Russia is just a farce. If we find out that that phony [Russian dossier] was brought to the U.S. Foreign Intelligence Surveillance [FISA] Court in the form of an affidavit for a judge’s authority, and if we find out that the people signing that affidavit in the bureau knew that that was phony information, that is a serious, serious felony." --Former FBI Assistant Director James Kallstrom
