This leads us to today. Many people suspected that in 2016 a young man working for the DNC by the name of Seth Rich, copied emails from the DNC and shared them with WikiLeaks. Mr. Rich was murdered in Washington D.C. in July 2016 but his wallet, phone and watch were found on his person when the police arrived at the scene. We reported numerous oddities surrounding his death.

For years the Seth Rich story has been covered up and labeled a conspiracy. However, we reported numerous incidents and activities within the Deep State related to covering up the Seth Rich story. We recently reported that Judicial Watch released documents obtained in a FARA request. These emails revealed that corrupt cops Peter Strzok and Jonathan Moffa were copied in an email regarding a report from Daily Mail where ex-Brit Craig Murray claimed he traveled to Washington DC and obtained Clinton emails in an exchange in a wooded area near American University.

(Here is a link to the article that was shared between the dirty cops.)

The Mueller gang never looked into the Seth Rich matter and never interviewed Julian Assange from WikiLeaks to determine who provided him the DNC emails which were reportedly the cause of the Russia collusion sham.

In a prior post related to this subject we detailed the many actions taken over the past few years to determine if Seth Rich was the one who provided emails to WikiLeaks.

Recently, transcripts of a conversation between George Papadopoulos and a confidential informant believed to be Stefan Halper were released by the DOJ. This transcript confirms that Papadopoulos was spied on and recorded, two things Papadopoulos was not told at the time of the case made against him by the Mueller gang.

We know from our previous reporting that a Deep State Anti-Trump former Assistant US Attorney claimed under oath that the FBI did examine Seth Rich's computer and that she met with an FBI Agent and prosecutor from the Mueller gang. This indicates the meeting should have been recorded in a form 302 but the FBI continues to claim no records related to Seth Rich are available!

We reported in mid-February how Attorney Ty Clevenger, who represents a client who is being sued for his comments about Seth Rich, reported to the courts that despite numerous assurances from the FBI that they had no information related to Seth Rich, emails related to Seth Rich were identified and provided to Judicial Watch. It looked like the FBI was lying to Clevenger all this time.

I respectfully request your assistance in de-classifying National Security Agency records that would settle this question once and for all.As you are probably aware, Mr. Rich was murdered in Washington, D.C.shortly after the emails were released, and Julian Assange strongly inferred thatMr. Rich rather than Russian hackers was responsible for sending the emails toWikileaks. Conversely, Special Counsel Robert Mueller, the FBI, and theintelligence establishment all have insisted that Mr. Rich played no role intransferring the emails.I am reliably informed that the NSA or its partners intercepted at least someof the communications between Mr. Rich and Wikileaks. Before elaborating onthat, however, I should first note the extent to which the "deep state" has alreadytried to cover up information about Mr. Rich. In an October 9, 2018 affidavitsubmitted in a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit, FBI section chief David M.Hardy testified that (1) the FBI did not investigate any matters pertaining to Mr.Rich, and (2) the FBI was unable to locate any records about Mr. Rich. Bothclaims were unequivocally false.

Very good summary of the Flynn railroading by Clarice Feldman at the American Thinker. The excerpt below reminds us of what most on the right and not msm media know all along, but worth repeating / rereading.

"Once again, Obama makes a statement about law which is demonstrably false. In fact, not once to my recalling has he ever made a statement about the law that is correct.
As to the facts, you simply cannot count on media reports, so I will link for you the Government's Motion to withdraw the case.
As you read it you will see that once specially appointed U.S. Attorney Jeff Jensen finally found the documents long hidden from the defense and court in the bowels of the FBI and DoJ, the government had little choice but to withdraw the case.
A number of analyses -- by people who do know enough not to simply rewrite Obama press dictation -- provide an accurate and chilling account of the persecution of Flynn. The Wall Street Journal's Kimberley Strassel and the Federalist's Margot Cleveland certainly provided the most accurate and readable of the accounts.
Strassel reminds us that the scandal had two parts. The "indefensible probe of the Trump campaign," and Robert Mueller's coverup of the Bureau's wrongdoing. I urge you to read the entire article. Here are the highlights, which are well documented.
1. "According to Justice department Inspector General Michael Horowitz, the FBI knew by January 2017 that the dossier's primary Russian source had disavowed the allegations and the FBI has failed to validate a single claim."
2. The government earlier this year admitted to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court that applications "which spanned Mr. Mueller's appointment and the [Rosenstein] scoping memo" lacked probable cause and should never have been made. The Mueller tasking memo gave him authority to investigate "abuses of ancient or rarely enforced laws" and "potential crimes" never or rarely enforced.
3. Former FBI director James Comey leaked his memo of conversations with the president specifically to force the appointment of a special counsel to hide his own "egregious errors." "The Mueller probe -- led by the very people who had made those errors -- then spent two years 'investigating' bogus or derivative claims, keeping secrets, and giving the escapade a fiction of legitimacy."

1 Biden was present at a Russia collusion briefing documented in an "odd" Susan Rice email.
Biden was documented as being present in the Oval Office for a conversation about the controversial Russia probe between President Obama, disgraced ex-FBI chief James Comey, Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates and other senior officials including Obama's national security advisor Susan Rice.

In an action characterized as "odd" in 2018 by then-Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley, Rice memorialized the confab in an email to herself describing Obama as starting "the conversation by stressing his continued commitment to ensuring that every aspect of this issue is handled by the Intelligence and law enforcement communities 'by the book.'"

---

Quote:

---

The email was sent during the period Obama reportedly personally raised purported red flags to then-President-elect Trump about hiring Flynn during an Oval Office meeting two days after the election.

An attorney for Rice responded to Grassley's letter saying Rice wrote the email to herself with the goal of "memorializ[ing] an important national security discussion," since "President Obama and his national security team were justifiably concerned about potential risks to the Nation's security from sharing highly classified information about Russia with certain members of the Trump transition team, particularly Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn."

The attorney's previous admission that the conversation was about Flynn may raise immediate red flags now that Flynn's case was dropped amid reports of possible wrongdoing by the FBI.

2 Biden was reportedly involved in the controversial early stages of the Russia collusion probe.
Biden was reportedly one of the few Obama administration officials who participated in secretive meetings during the early stages of the Obama-era intelligence community's initial operations regarding suspected Russian interference in the 2016 presidential campaign.

That tidbit was contained deep inside a 7,700-plus word Washington Post article published June 23, 2017 in which the newspaper also detailed the highly compartmentalized nature of the original Russia interference investigation and the manner in which other U.S. intelligence agencies were deliberately kept in the dark. Part of the efforts eventually involved unsubstantiated and ultimately discredited charges made by the Christopher Steele dossier that Trump campaign officials were colluding with Russia.

---

Quote:

---

According to the newspaper, in the summer of 2016, CIA Director John Brennan convened a "secret task force at CIA headquarters composed of several dozen analysts and officers from the CIA, the NSA and the FBI."
The Post described the unit as so secretive it functioned as a "sealed compartment" hidden even from the rest of the U.S. intelligence community; a unit whose workers were all made to sign additional non-disclosure forms.
The unit reported to top officials, the newspaper documented:

Quote:

---

They worked exclusively for two groups of "customers," officials said. The first was Obama and fewer than 14 senior officials in government. The second was a team of operations specialists at the CIA, NSA and FBI who took direction from the task force on where to aim their subsequent efforts to collect more intelligence on Russia.

---

The number of Obama administration officials who were allowed access to the Russia intelligence was also highly limited, the Post reported. At first only four senior officials were involved, and not Biden. Those officials were CIA Director John Brennan, Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, Attorney General Loretta Lynch and then-FBI Director James Comey. Their aides were all barred from attending the initial meetings, the Post stated.

---

Quote:

---

The secrecy extended into the White House.

Rice and White House homeland-security adviser Lisa Monaco convened meetings in the Situation Room to weigh the mounting evidence of Russian interference and generate options for how to respond.

At first, only four senior security officials were allowed to attend: Brennan, Clapper, Attorney General Loretta E. Lynch and FBI Director James B. Comey. Aides ordinarily allowed entry as "plus-ones" were barred.

Gradually, the circle widened to include Vice President Biden and others. Agendas sent to Cabinet secretaries including John F. Kerry at the State Department and Ashton B. Carter at the Pentagon arrived in envelopes that subordinates were not supposed to open. Sometimes the agendas were withheld until participants had taken their seats in the Situation Room.

---

Quote:

---

Adding another layer of secrecy, the newspaper reported that when the closed cabinet sessions on Russia began in the White House Situation Room in August, the video feed from the main room was cut off during the meetings.

The feed, which allows only for video and not audio, is usually kept on so that senior aides can see when a meeting takes place.

3 Biden's national security adviser participated in secretive early Russia probe meetings.
Colin Kahl, who served as then-Vice President Biden's national security adviser, reportedly participated in the secretive and highly compartmentalized early principals' meetings described above in #2.
The detail was contained in the March 2018 book Russian Roulette: The Inside Story of Putin's War on America and the Election of Donald Trump by Michael Isikoff, chief investigative correspondent for Yahoo News, and David Corn, Washington bureau chief of Mother Jones.

---

Quote:

---

In discussing how to respond to the information gathered, Isikoff and Corn write, the traditional interagency process of deputy chiefs meeting to formulize options for the heads of agencies also referred to as principals was bypassed for a more secretive route.
They write:

Quote:

---

Usually, when the White House invited the deputies and principals to such meetings, they informed them of the subject at hand and provided "read ahead" memos outlining what was on the agenda. This time, the agency officials just received instructions to show up at the White House at a certain time. No reason given. No memos supplied. "We were only told that a meeting was scheduled and our principal or deputy was expected to attend," recalled a senior administration official who participated in the sessions.
