JIM FETZER "The Raw Deal" (7-24-18) Trump vs. The Deep State
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
For if a bomb that drops on you Gets your friends and neighbors too There'll be nobody left behind to grieve And we will all go together when we go But a comforting fact that is to know Universal bereavement's an inspiring achievement Yes, we all will go together when we go
We will all go together when we go.
All suffused with an incandescent glow.
No one will have the endurance to collect on his insurance.
Lloyds of London will be loaded when they go.
This is Jim Fetzer, your host on The Raw Deal.
Let me invite your attention right off the bat to a piece by Robert David Steele, interviewed on SGT.
I've always assumed that was Sargent, but it may not be.
SGT report about the common enemy of Russia and the U.S.
is the deep state.
This interview is so powerful.
It's only, you know, 35 minutes long or so that it was taken off.
It was interrupted and the SGD report was taken down in the middle of the broadcast, in the middle of the interview.
It's up on BitChute and other places.
I have tweeted about it.
I put it on my Facebook page.
I'm encouraging you to check it out.
Everyone needs to watch this.
Robert Steele, with whom I am collaborating on his 9-11 Memorandum Series for the President, is a massive, mighty force for truth and justice.
I am convinced of his authenticity.
He's going after the crucial issues.
He's going after the Zionists.
He's going after the pedophiles.
He's going after the deep state.
The man is just huge in his intelligence, in his moral authority.
I want you to come to appreciate Robert David Steele because I am a believer.
We begin with the left continuing its loony assault and overreaction to the Trump-Putin summit.
It's become bizarre in the extreme.
Tom Hartman, one of the absolute darlings of the left, has suggested there are three main theories that explain Trump's approach to Putin and Russia.
Which one makes the most sense?
Here he says that three theories in ascending order of likelihood, in other words, from one to two to three, is getting the more likely, in his judgment, the first.
He's a Manchurian candidate.
He's being blackmailed and has been a Russian asset for years.
Number two, the wannabe dictator.
He believes that countries should be run like companies, essentially autocracies.
Three, the deadbeat.
He's not only rich, but he's badly in debt, and Russian billionaires are among his main creditors.
But this is grotesque!
This is simply ignoring the evidence!
How many times do we have to explain?
Now, this was on Common Dreams, and I put up the following post, and I've gotta hand Common Dreams at least credit for not taking it down.
There are other posts disputing Tom Hartman's fantasies here.
I mean, this is so despicable, this Tom Hartman, whom even I used to think was a good guy.
Here's what I put up.
Occam's Razor only applies to alternative theories that can explain the available evidence equally well, which is not the case here.
Tom Hartman ignores the most important data.
Here is what he is leaving out.
According to the latest, Special Counsel Robert Mueller has indicted 12 Russian military intel officers for hacking the DNC in an attempt to affect the outcome of the 2016 presidential election, citing the Guccifer 2.0 files as proof.
But back on 10 July 2017, William Craddock reported in Zero Hedge New blockbuster research shows Guccifer 2.0 files were copied locally, not hacked, based upon the rapidity with which they had been downloaded, and that it happened in the Eastern time zone.
Months earlier, on 6 January 2017, Rachel Rivest in the UK Independent had reported, Democratic National Committee did not allow FBI to examine hacked servers before agency blamed Russia's culprit.
So just how dumb are we supposed to be?
Even James Comey on 10 January 2017 reported by The Hill a few days later admitted Comey DNC denied MPI's request for access to hacked servers.
The only explanation for which has to be that the DNC knew they would not find evidence of hacking.
The DNC, the FBI, Mueller have the public in an uproar on the basis of claims of hacking by Russians that it cannot sustain.
This goes far beyond a witch hunt and into the abyss of propaganda to promote a nefarious political agenda.
We are being played for saps.
An alternative theory, which does not even appear among the options allowed here, is that Trump has been serious about cleaning out the deep state, which has taken his threat to heart and is doing everything it can to undermine his legitimacy lest he succeed, which is the one that fits the data best.
We even have William Benny.
This guy's the foremost expert on cybersecurity in the world being interviewed and explained how the election hack that is alleged to have taken place was impossible.
He's not only an NSA veteran and a whistleblower, but a completely brilliant guy.
And where is this information coming from?
The New York Times?
CNN?
MSNBC?
Not on your life.
It's coming from RT Russia today.
Which along with Sputnik News and Press TV are among the only reliable trustworthy sources of accurate information about foreign news and even domestic developments in the world today.
We have a very good report coming from American Thinker.
Lisa Page revealed under oath that there was no basis for Mueller's appointment by Thomas Lifson.
The Mueller Special Counsel investigation was launched to probe charges that the key FBI officials developing evidence in the case thought were baseless.
That's a bombshell accusation that appears to have been confirmed by lovebird turned songbird, Lisa Page, according to John Solomon.
It tends to confirm the suspicion that the Mueller probe is a cover-up operation to obscure the criminal use of counterintelligence capabilities to spy on a rival presidential campaign and then sabotage the presidency that resulted.
Last night, John Solomon of The Hill revealed that he has obtained information from sources who heard Page's testimony in two days of sworn depositions behind closed doors that she offered bombshell confirmation of the meaning of one of the most enigmatic text messages that the public has seen.
Keep in mind, there are many yet to come.
As Solomon explains, there are just five words among the thousands of suggestive text page and stroke exchange that you should read.
That passage was transmitted on 19 May 2017.
Quote, there is no big bear there.
Stroke text.
The date of the text long has intrigued investigators.
It is two days after Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein named Special Counsel Robert Mueller to oversee an investigation into alleged collusion between Trump and the Russia campaign.
Since the text was turned over to Congress, investigators wonder whether it referred to the evidence against the Trump campaign this month.
They finally got the chance to ask.
Strozek declined to say, but Page, During a closed door interview with lawmakers, confirmed in the most pained and contorted way that the message, in fact, referred to the quality of the Russian taste.
According to multiple witnesses, in other words, there was no there there.
Remember, where's the beef?
This is the equivalent here with regard to this investigation.
There was no beef.
There was no there.
There.
The admission is deeply consequential.
It means Rosenstein unleashed the most awesome powers of a special counsel to investigate an allegation that key FBI officials driving the investigation for 10 months beforehand Did not think was there.
The truth behind the Mueller probe is looking uglier and uglier.
Pursuing bogus accusations without foundation is the very definition of a witch hunt.
President Trump's term for Mueller's team of Hillary supporters.
Another fascinating piece, in this case coming from Paul Craig Roberts, our nation's leading public intellectual.
The coming coup to overthrow President Trump, sedition at the highest levels.
We are currently experiencing sedition at the highest levels as the military security complex unfolds its coup against the elected President of the United States.
The annual budget of the military security complex is $1,000 billion.
This vast sum is drawn from U.S.
taxpayers who have many unmet needs.
To justify such an enormous budget, a major enemy is required.
The military security complex and the media and politicians that the complex owns have designated Russia to be that enemy.
The complex and its political and media agents will not permit Trump to normalize relations with Russia.
To prevent President Trump from reducing the dangerous tensions between nuclear powers that Washington has created, the military security complex orchestrated Russiagate, a proven hoax, but believed by many due to its endless repetition.
The military security complex orchestrated the false indictments of 12 Russians.
The military security complex orchestrated the false arrest of Maria Butina, and on and on and on.
The military security complex, acting through the politicians and prestitutes that it owns and controls, has turned the normal, everyday responsibility of the President, one acknowledged and acted upon by every previous President, to defuse tensions that could lead to nuclear war into a high crime.
President Trump is accused of treason for trying to make peace.
An unaware person might think this is silly and laugh, but as Finian Cunningham has shown, President Trump has been set up as a treasonous enemy of America.
We are currently experiencing sedition at the highest levels as a military security complex unfolds its coup against the elected President of the United States.
In 1961, President Dwight Eisenhower warned Americans in his last public address that the military-industrial complex was a threat to American democracy.
Truer words were never spoken by an American president.
Shortly thereafter, the military-security complex assassinated President John F. Kennedy for working toward peace with Soviet leader Khrushchev.
To get rid of President Nixon, who made too many arms control agreements with the Soviets, and opened the door to China.
The military security complex used its asset, the Washington Post, to orchestrate the Watergate crisis that the military security complex used to force Nixon's resignation.
Now the military security complex is openly inciting sedition against the President of the United States.
If this plot succeeds, which is the most likely outcome, America will be a complete dystopia and all independent voices will be shut down.
Who can Trump rely on?
Not on his own political party, not on his own government, not on the print and TV media or NPR, not on Europe, not on the Secret Service, not on the Pentagon, not on the unaware American people.
Trump has only the deplorables, and they are unorganized and will experience retribution once Trump is removed.
In striving to come to an agreement with Washington, Putin and Lavrov are butting their heads against a stone wall.
Sooner or later, Putin and Lavrov will have to acknowledge this.
Once Putin and Lavrov realize the true situation, they will understand that war or surrender are their only options.
Russophobia.
Digest.
Five top Russian scares launched by the mainstream media just this week.
From Helsinki.
Russia has lately been accused of numerous deadly sins as politicians and media throw around scary sounding but unverified stories and opinions.
To help you plot a course in the rolling sea of Russophobia, RT has compiled the list.
Once again, it's RT bringing us the truth of the matter.
With the Helsinki summit between U.S.
President Donald Trump and Russia's Vladimir Putin hitting the news on Monday, this week didn't wait to erupt in headline upon headline of Trump and Russia bashing, including the long-sought proof of the Kremlin's interference in the U.S.
Many of those were quickly adopted by the anti-Trump hashtag resistance for obvious political gain.
Here's the first.
Putin confirms he interfered in 2016 elections.
One bombshell that fell during the post-summit press conference in Helsinki, one CNN immediately picked up, was Putin's supposed first-hand confirmation that he'd ordered interference in the 2016 presidential election to help Trump win.
This proved to be a translation mistake.
Putin was responding to a question by a Reuters reporter who asked whether he had wanted Trump to win in 2016 and whether he had dispatched any of his officials to help Trump win.
What Putin really said was, yes, he did want Trump to win because Trump was talking about normalizing the relations between the U.S.
and Russia.
With the help of a faulty translation, this transformed into a, yes I did, yes I did.
Making multiple hashtag resistance fighters scream bloody murder online.
Second, Trump agrees to send U.S.
officials to Russia for questioning.
Another memorable takeaway from the press conference was Putin's suggestion that Moscow be allowed to interview some of the persons of interest in Russian criminal investigations who are now in the U.S., and in exchange, the FBI Special Counsel Robert Mueller and his Russiagate team would be granted the opportunity to question the Russians indicted on meddling charges.
Since Trump did not dismiss that opinion out of hand, An outcry arose in the establishment media and officials escalating to farcical suggestions online that the President was about to haul American citizens off to be tortured in the KGB cellars.
But in fact, actually, it was a very good idea that the United States and Russia have a criminal agreement, you know, an agreement, a treaty to participate in criminal investigations.
That would be very appropriate.
Subsequently, I'll return to this point.
Third, Trader Trump invites Putin to Washington.
After the summit in Helsinki, which Trump hailed as a success and his opponents branded a disaster, the White House announced the President was inviting Vladimir Putin to visit Washington, D.C.
this fall.
While some might have seen it as a potential diplomatic breakthrough, the usual suspects could not forgive such a new level of treason on the part of the POTUS.
Responses ranged from calling a planned diplomatic visit, the fall of democracy, all the way through accusing Trump to choosing Putin over the American people, down to comparing it to George W. Washington inviting Osama bin Laden to the White House right after 9-11.
By the way, it was George W. Bush and Dick Cheney who, in collaboration with the Mossad and the CIA, brought us 9-11.
It would have been like inviting Bibi Netanyahu to the White House.
Osama was, in fact, our man in Afghanistan.
He had nothing to do with 9-11.
He was even an official with the CIA who visited him in a hospital in Dubai shortly before his death on 15 December 2001.
In Afghanistan, where he was buried in an unmarked grave in accordance with Muslim traditions.
The whole thing is a complete farce.
Osama was instrumental in getting the Stinger missiles into the hands of the Mujahideen to shoot down Russian, really Soviet, planes and helicopters and force them out of Afghanistan.
He was a good guy, not a bad.
The most widely publicized reaction was that of Trump's own Director of National Intelligence, Dan Coats, who was caught flat-footed by the news in the middle of a TV interview.
His incredulence.
say that again, was properly interpreted as a sign of resistance and an omen that he could soon be fired.
So much so that Coates later had to explain himself admitting his reaction was awkward, but no disrespect was implied.
In my opinion, it was a brilliant act of doubling down.
There's nothing more important than good relations between the United States and Russia, but obviously that contravenes the best interests of the national security state, which is going all out, throwing everything, including the kitchen sink and Trump nowadays.
That's precisely what we're experiencing.
Fourth, GOP Congressman Rohrabacher is a Russian hire.
Browder, this is a fellow who left Russia with 1.5 billion and not paying any taxes, more on him to come, who resides in the U.S.
and deems himself a personal enemy of Putin, was speaking at the Aspen Security Forum this week along with numerous other adherents to the Russiagate myth.
Along with other things, Brown accused Republican Dana Rohrabacher of being on the payroll of Russia because of his lobbying to overturn the Magnitsky Act, a piece of legislation that led to sanctions against Russian officials accused of human rights violations.
It began with Browder's accusations against Moscow over the death of a member of his staff in a Russian jail.
Faced with a request for evidence, Browder downplayed the accusation saying he didn't really mean Grobacher was a full-blown Russian agent, just under some type of influence by the Russian government.
In any case, Browder didn't have the bank transfers to pay for it.
Here's the fifth.
Russia painted honey-trapped Butina in GOP and going to war to get her back.
Detained late last week in the U.S., Russian student gun rights activist Marina Butina has been charged with being an unregistered Russian agent on American soil.
The prosecution claims include her using sex to get into a position of influence with Republican officials.
Russia believes the arrest is a political stunt, especially considering it was timed to the Helsinki meeting Between Trump and Putin, well, charges against Putin have been fabricated, no doubt about it.
She even had some approach with the NRA, so they're trying, you see, to loop the NRA into the charge of having been involved in, you know, this Russian influence and all that.
I mean, it's outrageous beyond belief.
Polls are showing, however, that the public isn't falling for it.
Every piece of data and virtually every public action of elected Republican officials sold Trump will have overwhelmingly, probably unbreakable party support, regardless of whatever Mueller finds with his Russia probe.
From the polls, Americans are split on whether the allegations of Russian interference are a serious issue, 50%, or a distraction, 47%.
Breaking cleanly along party lines, 85% of Republicans seen as a distraction, 85% of Democrats as serious.
More than half of Americans, 55%, don't trust the Trump administration to take steps to prevent foreign interference in November's midterms.
But of course, the actual foreign interference in our midterms came from another foreign nation, Israel.
I mean, it's obvious anyone with any sense whatsoever Knows that it was the Zionists and the propaganda organs which they control, which include the New York Times, CNN, and, you know, the Washington Post, among others.
It's completely outrageous.
Here's the main fault.
Do you approve or disapprove of the way Trump handled his press conference with Putin?
GOP 79% Approved.
18 disapproved.
Democrats, only 7% approved.
91% disapproved.
You can see how it's falling out.
Rand Paul, bless his heart, savages John Brennan as most biased, bigoted, unhinged CI director ever, telling it like it is.
John Brennan started out his adulthood by voting for the Communist Party presidential candidate, Rand Paul said.
He's now ending his career by showing himself to be the most biased, bigoted, over-the-top, hyperbolic sort of unhinged director of the CI we've ever had.
No question about it.
And of course, he's alluding to how on Monday, former CIA Director Brennan claimed Trump's press conference with Putin exceeded the threshold of high crimes and misdemeanors, then said it was nothing short of treasonous, which is about as absurd as it gets.
I think Brennan, this is now Trump, slammed the former CIA director in an interview with Tucker Carlson, whom I regard as by far the most viable, real, serious journalist with integrity on television today.
It's the one show I recommend without qualification.
I think Brennan is a very bad guy.
And if you look at it, a lot of things happened under his watch, Trump told Tucker Carlson.
I think he's a very bad person.
And of course he and Hillary and Barack Obama created ISIS in 2012 over the opposition of Michael Flynn, among many of the telling signs about Brennan being a very bad guy.
Brennan continued to attack President Trump on Tuesday after calling his press conference with Putin treasonous.
Brennan, like every other hysterical leftist, is afraid of what President Trump may have discussed during his private meeting with Vladimir Putin.
Much more to come after we return from this break.
So glad to have you here with me on the wrong deal today.
All right.

Was it a conspiracy?
Did you know that the police in Boston are broadcasting, this is a drill, this is a drill on bullhordes during the marathon?
That the Boston Globe was tweeting that a demonstration bomb would be set off during the marathon for the benefit of bomb squad activities.
And that one would be set off in one minute in front of the library, which happened as the Globe had announced.
Peering through the smoke, you could see bodies with missing arms and legs.
But there was no blood.
The blood only showed up later and came out of a tube.
They used amputee actors and a studio-quality smoke machine.
Don't let yourself be played.

What the heck is the truth, Jihad?
Hey, I'm Kevin Barrett, host of Truth Jihad Radio.
Federal prosecutors, Department of Homeland Security agents, and curious passers-by often ask me, just what is this Truth Jihad thing, anyway?
Well, everybody knows what truth is, but jihad is a misunderstood term Jihad means effort or struggle.
The greater jihad is the struggle to be a better person, while the lesser jihad is the struggle to defend the community.
Prophet Muhammad, peace upon him, did say that, while best jihad is a word of truth flung in the face of a tyrant.
And that's what we do here at Truth Jihad Radio!

This is Jim Fetzer.
It's fascinating that the Wall Street Journal, which maintains its reputation for reporting accurate and trustworthy, not its editorial policy, but its reporting of news, Has now.
Was John Brennan the one who actually engaged in treason?
This is fascinating.
Former Obama CIA Director John Brennan is both a communist and a traitor.
Now it appears the Wall Street Journal's Kimberly Strassel may be following that path without coming right out and saying it.
In a recent column, Strassel seems to take issue with Brennan's tweets from earlier this week when he torrented President Donald Trump over his actions in Helsinki with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Donald Trump's press conference performance in Helsinki rises to and exceeds the threshold of high crimes and misdemeanors, tweeted Brennan.
It was nothing short of treasonous, added Brennan, who worked for what could be argued was the most treasonous person to sit in the Oval Office.
Meaning Barack Obama.
Not only were Trump's comments imbecilic, he is wholly in the pocket of Putin.
Republican patriots, where are you?
That's what Mr. Brennan is, a partisan, and it's why his role in the 2016 scandal is in some ways more concerning than the FBI's.
Mr. Comey stands against breaking the chain of command, abusing investigatory powers.
Yet it seems far likelier that the MPI's Trump investigation was a function of arrogance and overconfidence than some partisan plot.
No such case can be made for Mr. Brennan.
Before his nomination as CIA director, he served as a close Obama advisor, and the record shows he went on to use his position as head of the most powerful spy agency in the world to assist Hillary Clinton's campaign and keep his job.
Mr. Brennan has taken credit for launching the Trump investigation.
At a House Intelligence Committee hearing in May 2017, he explained that he became aware of intelligence and information about contacts between Russian officials and U.S.
persons.
This is pulling it out of his posterior.
The CIA can't investigate U.S.
citizens, but he made sure that every information and bit of intelligence was shared with the Bureau, meaning the FBI.
This served as the basis for the FBI investigation.
My sources suggest Mr. Brennan was overstating his initial role, but either way, by his own testimony, he as an Obama-Clinton partisan was pushing information to the FBI and pressuring it to act.
More notable, Mr. Brennan then took the lead in shaping the narrative that Russia was interfering in the election specifically to help Mr. Trump.
Which quickly evolved into the Trump collusion narrative.
Team Clinton was eager to make the claim, especially in light of the Democratic National Committee server hack.
Numerous reports show Mr. Brennan aggressively pushing the same line internally.
Their problem was that as of July 2016, even then-Director of National Intelligence James Clapper didn't buy it.
He publicly refused to say who was responsible for the hack, Prescribed motivation.
And of course, we know there was no hack.
It was a leak, as Bill Benny, for example, has confirmed.
And also couldn't get the FBI to sign on to The View.
The Bureau continued to believe Russian cyber attacks were aimed at disrupting the U.S.
political system generally, not aiding Mr. Trump specifically.
Think about that just a moment, because on Saturday, I reported the fact that sources have claimed former FBI attorney Lisa Page has begun to testify under oath that there was absolutely no basis for the Mueller investigation into Trump.
In that report, I referenced John Solomon's claim that, for any American who wants an answer sooner, there are just five words among the thousands of suggestive text, page, and stroke exchange that you should read.
That passage was transmitted on 19 May 2017.
There's no big there, there, stroke text.
The date, as I have explained, has long intrigued.
The admission is deeply consequential, as I have explained.
Here we have Ron Paul now on the mainstream media panic of meetings.
There's a secret government that likes to control things he's observing.
Former Congressman Ron Paul said Monday that President President Putin was a step in the right direction and drew so much ire because it went contrary to the Deep State's agenda.
From, again, guess where?
Russia Today, RT.
I was very pleased with what went on today, Paul said.
He added that if the two leaders ever had a serious discussion, I guess it would come out in how much we've been involved when we shouldn't be involved.
For instance, in Ukraine and how that occurred.
But if they don't want to constrain on those problems and they want to look forward, I think that's great.
I think the next best step would be for us to reassess this and say that Trump's going in the right direction and talk him into getting rid of the sanctions on Russia.
I'll also address the U.S.
media calling it a big problem because they're almost unanimously endorsing the idea that we have to have an enemy.
At this point, especially for the last 20 years, they've been working very hard to make Russia that enemy, and I think this is wrong.
When asked by IRT why the US media already seems so angry about the meeting between the two presidents, he said, It's hard to say, but we usually describe that there's a secret government that likes to control things, and most people know what we talk about when we talk about the deep state.
And they do have a lot of clout.
They are very much involved in the media and the leadership of both parties.
So both parties in the media are very, very annoyed with Trump being so independent.
Paul also addressed the recent indictment of 12 Russian individuals by Special Counsel Robert Mueller.
Saying there is an argument why Russia is an enemy and we have to quit talking to them.
I don't think it's just a propaganda stunt.
I think those indictments were more about propaganda than seeking justice.
Paul talked about how the media and most politicians have become completely unhinged over Trump's Helsinki meeting.
Here's a Gallup poll showing the Democrats' attack on Trump-Russia isn't working.
Americans cite illegal immigration as the top problem.
This was reported to by Dr. Ian Wynn on her Fellowship of the Minds blog, which I highly recommend.
In Gallup's most recent poll on what Americans see as the most important problem facing the nation, Russia doesn't even show up as a problem.
Not just for Republicans, but also for Democrats.
That's how phony the hue and cry about Trump and Putin by Democrats and their media accomplices is.
Even Democrats don't care.
Gallup poll reports July 18, 2018.
Immigration was identified as the top problem by all Americans, Republicans, Independents, as well as Democrats.
22% of all Americans up from 14 in June.
22% is the highest percentage naming that issue in Gallup's history of asking the most important problem question.
35% of Republicans up from 21% in June.
Republicans up from 21% in June, 17% of Democrats, 18% of 17% of independents, 18% of Democrats.
American views of the top problems.
Here are the top eight problems.
Immigration, 22%.
Dissatisfaction with government, poor leadership, 19%.
Race relations, racism, 7%.
Unifying the country, 6%.
Lack of respect for one another, 6%.
Economy in general, 4%.
Healthcare, 3%.
Ethics, moral, religious, family decline, three.
It doesn't even show up, so it's obviously not working.
In major blow to Mueller, by the way, Manafort judge ordered special counsel to publicly name five witnesses given immunity.
In a ruling Monday, that was yesterday, Judge T.S.
Ellis, a Reagan appointee, ordered Mueller to publicly name the five witnesses who got immunity, a huge blow to the special counsel.
A federal judge ruled Monday the special counsel Robert Mueller must make public the identities of five witnesses his prosecutors have granted immunity in exchange for their testimony at the upcoming criminal trial of former Donald Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort.
U.S.
District Court Judge T.S.
Ellis III gave the order to unseal the witnesses' identities as well as a complete list of who is going to be called by prosecutors to testify at the end of a 30-minute hearing in his Alexandria, Virginia courtroom that primarily revolved around Manafort's motion to postpone his case until he finished fighting a separate suit of charges brought by Mueller in Washington.
Ellis heard arguments in Manafort's plea for delay, with a longtime GOP operative seated at the defense table clean-shaven in his green jail jumpsuit, and said he would release a decision at 2 p.m.
For now, potential jurors for Manafort's Virginia trial are expected to arrive at the federal courthouse on Tuesday, with jury selection set to begin on Wednesday.
Last Tuesday, Robert Mueller sought to give immunity to five potential witnesses in the Paul Manafort trial.
Mueller filed the request under seal.
Manafort is facing a charge of bank and tax fraud.
His trial begins Wednesday.
Notice it has nothing to do with any Russian anything or his role as a campaign manager for the Trump campaign.
The five potential witnesses have not been charged, and Judge Ellis is ordering Mueller to release her names.
Fox News' Tucker Carlson announced last Thursday that two separate sources confirmed to him Mueller offered Tony Podesta immunity, which is completely outrageous.
Tony Podesta, who is John Podesta's brother, appears to be a known pedophile, appears to have been involved in the kidnapping of a young girl in Portugal.
This is completely outrageous.
It would appear Robert Mueller, therefore, is using His improperly appointed special counsel role to clean the slate for key Hillary Clinton operatives who are dirty, dirty to the core, and that would include Hillary Clinton and Huma Abedin and Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi and a host of others.
My subterfuge, this is completely outrageous.
Here's another development.
GOP House Intel Committee asks President Trump to declassify the Carter-Page FISA documents.
House Intel, in a letter obtained by Fox News, Catherine Perich, thanks to Judicial Watch, the Carter-Page FISA docs were released over the weekend after the watchdog filed a FOIA suit.
Although the documents were dishonestly and heavily redacted, they confirmed the FBI and DOJ misled the FISA courts.
Comey, Rosenstein, McCabe, and Sally Yates all signed FISA applications even though Hillary's fraudulent Russia dossier was used as a pretext to obtain the warrants.
GOP lawmakers led by House Intel Chairman Devin Nunes, Republican of California, and this guy, in my opinion, is a good guy 100%.
President Trump, are asking President Trump to declassify the documents.
The FBI's own Domestic Investigations and Operations Guide, known as the DIOG, prohibits the FBI from using unverified material to obtain a warrant under FISA.
The unverified allegations in the dossier were nevertheless presented to the Foreign Intelligence Survey Court to obtain a FISA warrant and three renewals on Mr. Page.
The Department of Justice also presented a news article that was sourced from the author of the dossier.
I mean, how absurd is that?
Citing a newspaper article?
One of these unverified charges?
I mean, the corruption is simply, simply overwhelming.
Other GOP lawmakers such as Freedom Caucus Chairman Mark Meadows and Representative Lee Zedlin called for the FISA docs to be declassified.
Here's Mark Meadows.
Potentially groundbreaking development here.
The Carter Page FISA docs should be declassified.
And further, unredacted, protecting only sources and methods so Americans can know the truth.
If a previous admin was funneling campaign research toward surveillance, we need to know.
Lee's Zeldin, it has come to the point that the real Donald Trump himself needs to and should declassify the Carter Page Feist Award applications and only redact sources and methods.
That must be.
There's no good reason why the public has not seen this information.
Which is going to blow the cover.
President Trump is considering revoking the security clearances from former intelligence officials who served under former President Barack Obama, according to White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders.
Not only is the President looking to take away Brennan's security clearance, he's also looking into the clearances of Comey, Clapper, Hyde, Rice, and McCain, Senators said during the White House press briefing.
Senator Rand Paul discusses the effort to remove the security clearances.
Earlier today, Senator Rand Paul met with President Trump to request consideration for the removal of security clearances from former intel officers engaged in corrupt and partisan behavior.
Senator Paul discusses the issues during a follow-up interview.
On Fox News, here again now, this one, Jamie White, InfoWars Deep State in uproar over security clearance review of Obama officials.
The bureaucratic Deep State is fuming over President Trump's announcement that he's considering revoking the security clearance access of several Obama administration officials.
The individuals in question include former CIA Director John Brennan, ex-FBI Director James Comey, former Director of National Intelligence Abe Clapper, former MSA Director Michael Hayden, former National Security Advisor Susan Rice, and former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, It's kind of a sad commentary for political reasons, Clapper told CNN on Monday.
This is kind of a petty way of retribution, I suppose, for speaking out against the President.
But it's got nothing to do with simply speaking out against the President.
It's got to do with acts of treason committed as officials in their official capacity.
A former Obama bureaucrat emerged on Fox to claim that Trump's potential move against the deep state would ring the alarm bells in Washington.
There are Republicans, these are Republicans as well as Democrats, and I think we're going down a slippery slope, said Adam O'Reilly, former Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for Education and Cultural Affairs.
Attacking them this way or going after them this way or slaying the playing field in this way seems to me to set a very dangerous precedent.
Trump's consideration to revoke their security clearances, which I endorse 100%, was likely due to Senator Ron Paul's advisement to do so after Brennan accused the President of treason, a crime punishable by death, on Twitter for attending a diplomatic summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
That the Democrats have gone bananas is well illustrated here.
Democrats call Russia meddling, act of war, urge cyber attack on Moscow banks, and retaliation from Tyler Durb on Zero Hedge.
President Trump's refusal to condemn Russia for allegations of meddling in the 2016 US election Well, accepting Russian President Vladimir Putin's denial has triggered many on the left, along with Never Trump conservatives, in a blind rage.
After declaring Trump treasonous and calling for a coup, many on the left are now calling Russia's alleged hacking an act of war, with some suggesting it was a modern Pearl Harbor.
Aside from the 2,403 Americans who died at Pearl Harbor, That just had their deaths casually compared to an alleged cybercrime?
Sure!
Former National Security and Counterterrorism Advisor to President Bush and CBS News Senior National Security Analyst Francis Townsend is one of those people, tweeting on Tuesday that Putin's attack on the USSR Pearl Harbor, it was an act of war and we should recognize it as such, Francis Townsend, his tweet.
Politico drew the same comparison with their article.
Putin's attack on the U.S.
is a new Pearl Harbor, while trotting out the act of war language as well.
Members of the House and Senate have been briefed but remain deadlocked in partisan bickering.
Some in the House have spent more time investigating the investigators than they have in trying to hold Russia accountable.
Trump's suggestion to accept Russian investigators into this process adds a new layer to the sideshow.
When right of the bloom, When right off the broom feels like left of the broom, it's easy to miss the fact that what the Kremlin did is doing was and is an act of war.
That's politico.
How egregious, how disgraceful.
Representative Steve Cohen, Democrat in Tennessee, the guy who wanted to give disgraced FBI agent Peter Stroke the verbal heart.
Tell the hills Buck Sexton and Crystal Ball that Russian interference was clearly an act of war and that the U.S.
should have hit back with attacks on Russian targets.
It was foreign interference with our basic democratic values.
The underpinnings of democratic society is elections and free elections and they invaded our country.
A cyber attack that made Russian society valueless.
They could have gone into Russian banks, Russian governments, our cyber abilities or such.
We could have attacked them with a cyber attack That would have crippled Russia from the hill.
Michael Krager, listen to this guy, look how utterly sick and twisted he is, all because Hillary lost a cyber attack that made Russian society valueless.
Meanwhile, as Reitbart Joss Kaplan notes, CNN's Chris Cuomo is stoking the fire.
CNN New Day host Chris Cuomo repeatedly accused Russia of election hacking to wage war against the U.S.
The big ugly white elephant in the room will be the U.S.
election hacking, Cuomo speculated.
We've been calling it meddling, but I'm trying to stay away from the word because it's way too mild.
This is an act of war.
Except, of course, it didn't happen.
It was all made up.
By Robbie Podesta and John Podesta.
Robbie Mook and John Podesta within 48 hours of Hillary's conspiracy speech.
I mean, this is disgraceful.
Two investigative journalists reported the facts of the matter in their book, Shattered, published in 2017.
These people don't even know the most basic aspects.
That there was no hacking, that it was all a fabrication.
Market washers Rex Nutting suggested that Russia's ongoing attack on our democracy amounts to an act of war, while criticizing President Trump's meeting with Putin.
Russia's ongoing attack on our democracy amounts to an act of war, but instead of confronting Russian President Vladimir Putin at a joint press conference in Finland on Monday, Donald Trump praised him.
Instead of standing up to Putin, Trump stood by him.
By his actions, Trump is violating his oath in which he solemnly swore not only to faithfully execute his duties as President and Commander of the Chief, but to preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution.
Which is what these other people also swore to do, but they are not doing.
He's actually doing it.
Trump is doing it.
They are not.
The whole situation is a gross reversal.
Where the false is made true and the true is made false.
Weird move.
James Comey's election advice only gives more ammo to his critics.
James Comey's credibility is basically hanging by a thread.
And yet last night, he evidently thought this tweet was a good idea.
This Republican Congress has proven incapable of fulfilling the founders' design that ambition must counteract ambition.
All who believe in this country's values must vote for Democrats this fall.
Policy differences don't matter right now.
History has its eye on us.
It certainly has its eyes on James Comey, and its eyes are rolling.
Here are several tweets in response.
Kilgore Trout, With all due respect, sir, you shouldn't be saying such things.
You're giving those on the right more reason to think you and the FBI have it out for Trump.
Another, David Roots.
Comey's explicit embracing of the Democrats is a weird move.
It's certainly been implied he would want Democrats to win, given his book and criticism of Trump.
To come out and baldly say it gives leverage to opponents to dismiss him as a mere partisan.
Guy Benison.
The credibility of our law enforcement and intelligence institutions are under siege by people who claim those institutions' leaders are or were agenda-driven partisans and said leaders seem absolutely determined to vindicate their critics' attack.
Here are reports from Vladimir Putin himself that the efforts to isolate Russia have failed.
Many things change for the better.
This is coming reported in Sputnik News, of course.
You're not gonna get it from the New York Times or Washington Post or CNN.
During the meeting with the U.S., President Donald Trump in Helsinki, Russian President Vladimir Putin said in an interview with, yes, Fox News on Monday, A lot of things changed for the better during today's meeting.
Putin told Fox News on Monday.
That's a week ago, of course.
This meeting is the beginning of a path.
This is a start.
We did make a good start today.
Vladimir Putin said in an interview, Russia is prepared to extend START nuclear treaty.
In 2021, the new START treaty is about to expire.
So what are we going to do next?
Putin said, I reassured President Trump that Russia stands ready to extend this treaty to prolong it, but we have to agree on the specifics first because we have some questions for our American partners.
He stressed in the interview that Western efforts to isolate Russia have not succeeded.
I think you see for yourself these efforts failed and they were never bound to succeed, Putin told Fox when asked about efforts to isolate Russia.
Well, I believe, by the way, that holding the world match, the football match, in Moscow was absolutely sensational.
Ten years of learning about Russian culture, Russian people, a wonderful people, a great culture, which did much to shatter the illusions being propagated by the deep state and their corrupt allies in the mainstream.
Moscow is interested in developing security, strategic stability, and economic relations with the U.S., he emphasized.
When asked about NATO potentially adding Ukraine or Georgia as new military allies, he observed moving this NATO infrastructure toward our borders would be a threat.
The reaction would be extremely negative.
Putin has also commented on the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula.
The Russian President stressed this issue would require international guarantees and Russia stands ready to help.
I will point out that I think President Trump contributed a lot.
He did a lot to settle this issue.
But in order to achieve complete denuclearization of the peninsula, it will take international guarantees.
And Russia stands ready to make its contribution to the extent that is necessary.
Ungrounded accusations, Putin slams, Novichok poison claims.
When asked about the UK charge that Moscow was allegedly behind the Novichok-type nerve agent contamination, he stressed London had not provided any evidence.
We'd like to get at least some sort of documented evidence about it, but nobody gives it to us.
He also said the case could be driven by domestic issues in Britain.
Nobody wants to look into this.
We just hear the ungrounded accusations.
Why is it done this way?
Why should our relationship be made worse by this?
And by the way, the Novichok obviously wasn't used because it would have killed the animals.
They had their pets.
They would have died on the scene, not later, suffered debilitating effects.
And the Novichok actually is patented in the United States.
It's not even a Russian poison.
U.S.-Russia tie should not be held hostage to the Mueller Board.
It's quite clear that this is used in the internal political struggle.
American democracy should not be proud of using such dirty methods in political rivalries.
Moreover, Moscow has surprised Special Counsel Robert Mueller's office who has yet to send an official request related to the indictment of 12 Russian intel officers, given a U.S.-Russian criminal treaty is in place.
With the United States, we have a treaty for assistance in criminal cases that existed since 1991 and is still enforced and works sufficiently well today.
Why wouldn't Special Counsel Mueller send us an official request within the framework of this agreement?
Our investigators would be acting in accordance with this treaty.
They will question each individual.
Their American partners suspect of something.
Why no single request was filed?
Nobody sent a single formal letter.
Formal request, it simply surprises me.
Because there's nothing to learn.
Mueller knows the whole thing's a fake.
Investigation would reveal the scandal.
And Putin called out George Soros for his own involvement in hacking U.S.
elections.
And of course we know Israel is involved in every one of our elections.
Mark my words well.
I'll be right back.

I reiterate, after this show, check out Robert David Steele's interview on the SGT report, The Common Enemy of Russia and the U.S.
is the Shadow Government, the Deep State.
Here's a very interesting parallel that I have been, now believe, ought to be taken seriously.
Don't forget JFK's fight with the CIA.
JFK knew all about the, sarcastically speaking, lobbying intelligence community.
Recognizing the Cold War for the nonsense it was, JFK decided to end it and have the United States and the Soviet Union live in peaceful coexistence.
He announced the change in his now famous peace speech, which he prepared without consulting with the national security establishment.
He also began a withdrawal of U.S.
troops from Vietnam.
Worst of all, from the standpoint of the Pentagon and the CIA, he entered into secret personal negotiation with Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev and Cuban leader Fidel Castro to end the Cold War.
Let me mention a fascinating historical fact.
Representatives of the Kennedy administration and of Fidel Castro were meeting in Paris on 22 November 1963 when Jack was taken out in Dallas.
Here's another article about it.
Don't forget JFK's fight with the CIA by Jacob Hornberger.
I wanted to splinter the CIA into a thousand pieces and scatter it to the winds, he observed.
Weighing in against President-elect Donald Trump and his disagreement with the CIA over alleged Russian meddling in the U.S.
presidential election, the Wall Street Journal's Shane Harris writes, Donald Trump has picked a fight with the Central Intelligence Agency over Russian hacking of American elections, an unprecedented move for an incoming president.
The likely reason Harris employed the term incoming is it enables him to avoid addressing the big elephant in the room, President Kennedy, in his fight, actually his war against not only the CIA, but also another major component of the national security state, the military establishment.
Kennedy came into office as a standard cold warrior.
That is, like most Americans in the 50s and 60s, he bought into the notion that had been inculcated into the public since the end of World War II, that America's wartime partner and ally, the Soviet Union, What's coming to get us and subject the American people to communism, to combat what was billed as an international communist conspiracy based in Moscow.
Americans were told it would be necessary to adopt the same type of governmental structure that existed in Russia.
A national security apparatus grafted onto America's original limited government structure that had been established by the Constitution.
Let me just say that appears to have been done with a Patriot Act, which was passed overwhelmingly in the wake of 9-11 obviously having sat on the shelf.
For years and years and years awaiting the right occasion, creating the Department of Homeland Security, consolidating some 32 different independent agencies in this mammoth national security apparatus, the Patriot Act ought to be rescinded and undone.
We're better off without it.
And of course, when you talk about a communist conspiracy, this is what we're getting from the mainstream press.
They're talking about a conspiracy, a conspiracy theory that involves collusion between the Russian government, Russian intel officers, and the Trump administration to get Donald Trump elected president.
But there's no basis for it, no substantiation.
This is the kind of declaration and claim that gives conspiracy theories a bad name.
Unbelievable.
That apparatus included a giant, permanent, and ever-growing military establishment, what Eisenhower later called the Military-Industrial Complex.
He originally wanted to say military-industrial-congressional, but was talked out of it by those who felt it would be too antagonistic toward Congress because he wanted Congress to take actions that, of course, never did, never would.
It also consisted of a secret society called the CIA, which had come to wield omnipotent powers within what continued to be billed as a limited government.
Such powers would include assassination, regime change, operations, foreign coups, kidnapping, torture, rendition, involuntary medical experimentation such as MKUltra, spying and surveillance of Americans, the types of things that characterize the KGB and even Hitler's Gestapo.
JFK believed in this apparatus, even though it had been adopted without a constitutional amendment.
He believed it was necessary to keep America free and safe from the Reds, who it was said were coming to get us.
That is, in the beginning, until he took a turn for our beats.
And that, of course, led to his removal from office.
Rand finds a lot to like in Trump's presser with Putin like his father.
Cut the president some slacks, says a Kentucky senator and some of his GOP colleagues, as the GOP's long-dominant hawkish wing hammers President Trump over his chummy appearance Monday with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
A minority of Republicans aren't ready to clip their president's diplomatic links.
Senator Rand Paul, whose non-interventionist streak has long put him at odds with the GOP foreign policy orthodoxy.
Notice not isolationist, just non-interventionist, meaning we don't need to launch all these wars involving the United States, which happens again and again and again, the Middle East being the latest and most dramatic illustration.
Plans to travel to Russia in early August to play shuttle diplomacy for Trump.
In an interview on Monday, Paul said he hopes to meet with Trump before he heads overseas to see if there's anything he wants us to follow up on.
It's gotten ridiculous that someone has to stand up and say we should try to engage our adversaries and open up lines of communication, Paul said.
We're going to talk to the president about some small steps in order to try to thaw the relationship between our countries.
It's hard to imagine any other GOP president empowering a legislator like Paul to pursue his goals of diplomacy with a long-time adversary like Russia.
Paul's focus for now is on cultural exchange and fostering cross-Atlantic visits by U.S.
and Russian ambassadors.
To be sure, Paul has few Republican companions who share his embrace of Trump's approach to Russia, but some of his colleagues are prepared to give Trump a wider berth in his dealings with Putin.
Two weeks before, Putin met with Trump met with Putin in Helsinki.
A group of seven GOP senators and one House member visited Russia over the July 4th holiday weekend.
A trip that would have been unthinkable when Barack Obama was in office.
Those senators said they talked with top officials like Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, despite the Russian media's portrayal of them as weak on Moscow.
And although they certainly didn't cite Russia as a friend, they believe Trump's engagement with Putin is the right call.
Asked whether Trump made a mistake by going to Helsinki, Senator Ron Johnson, Republican of Wisconsin, replied, no, no, no.
He's one of my senators, and I greatly appreciate Ron Johnson standing up here.
Tammy Baldwin, the other, is on the other side of the fence, alas.
Johnson, who indicated openness to relaxing some sanctions on Russia after joining the visit there, suggested Trump's news conference with Putin may be trying to improve relations with the public face you put on it.
The president's got a delicate task in one sense because engagement, even with someone as evil as Putin, is necessary, added Senate Majority Whip John Croydon of Texas.
The way I interpret it is the president's trying to maintain some rapport with him.
GOP voices more critical of Paul and Trump's stance took center stage on Monday.
Mitt Romney, this is a week ago of course, called Trump's performance alongside Putin disgraceful.
John McCain called the meeting a tragic mistake.
But Paul talks us up to Trump derangement syndrome.
He believes his trip, planned in concert with the Libertarian-leaning Cato Institute, will allow the United States to eventually make inroads with Russia in the ongoing civil war in Syria, denuclearizing North Korea and getting Russian troops out of Ukraine.
Republicans who are making the criticism are either the pro-war Republicans like McCain and Graham or the anti-Trump ones like Sasse, Paul said, They are motivated by their persistent and consistent dislike of the President-in-Chief.
Trump has gradually but significantly shifted the GOP's views of Russia, in part because as leader of the party, he has made it impossible for its lawmakers to criticize him and win primaries.
Although Trump declined on Monday to endorse U.S.
Intelligence Committee's assessment of Russian meddling and suggested the bad relationship was both countries' fault, many Republicans praised him as forceful with Russia indeed, if not necessarily always in word.
It was a good idea for the President to meet with Putin and discuss the issues.
Take a look at how tough the President has been on Putin.
He's been incredibly tougher than previous administrations since Senator John Barrasso, Republican of Wyoming, mentioning sanctions and providing weapons to Ukraine.
It's important.
Montana Senator Steve Daines, another Republican who traveled to Russia during this month's delegation, said the intelligence community has been very clear that they interfered in our elections despite Trump's attempt to assign equal blame.
It's appropriate, very appropriate, to confront President Putin with the behavior of Russia, which is unacceptable.
Asked whether Trump had offered that sort of confrontation, he said he'd yet to see the President's news conference.
Here are a couple of very, very stunning, deep and searching reports.
This is by Joe Lauria to Consortium News.
U.S.
media is looting its mind over Trump-Putin press conference.
The reaction of the U.S.
establishment media and several political leaders to President Donald Trump's press conference after his summit meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin on Monday has been stunning.
Writing in The Atlantic, for example, James Fallows said, For the shameful performance the world witnessed on Monday from a serving American president.
Either Donald Trump is a flat-out agent of Russian interests, maybe witty, maybe unwitting, from fear of blackmail, you know, but future deals out of manly respect for Vladimir Putin, out of gratitude for Russia's help during the election, out of pathetic inability to see See, beyond the 306 electoral votes, whatever the exact mixture of motives might be, it doesn't really matter.
Or, he is so profoundly ignorant, insecure, and narcissistic, he does not realize that at every step.
He was advancing the line that Putin hoped he would advance, and the line that American intelligence, defense, and law enforcement agencies most dreaded.
Conscious tool, useful idiot.
Those are the choices, though both are possibly true.
So the main question is the proportions.
Never before have I seen an American president consistently, repeatedly, publicly, and shockingly advance the interests of another country over those of his own government and people.
But Joe Lauria replies in contrast to that.
Well, here he is continuing to report on it.
As soon as the press conference ended, CNN cut to its panel with these words from TV personality Anderson Cooper, long, by the way, identified as CIA.
And you've been watching perhaps one of the most disgraceful performances by an American president at a summit in front of a Russian leader, surely, that I've ever seen.
David Gergen, who for years has gotten away with portraying himself on TV as an impartial political sage, then told CNN viewers, I've never heard an American president talk that way.
But I think it's especially true when he's with someone like Putin, who is a thug, a world-class thug, that he sides with him again and again, against his own country's interests, of his own institution he runs.
He's in charge of the federal government, he's in charge of these intel agencies, he basically dismisses them and retreats into this, we've heard it before, but on the international stage, to talk about Hillary Clinton's computer server.
It's embarrassing, interjected Cooper, it's embarrassing, agreed Gergen.
White House correspondent Jim Acosta, ostensibly an objective reporter, then gave his opinion.
I think that sums it up nicely.
This is the President of the United States essentially taking the word of the Russian President over his own intelligence community.
It was astonishing, just astonishing, to be in the room with the U.S.
President and the Russian President on this crucial question of election interference.
And to retreat back to these talking points about DNC servers and Hillary Clinton's emails, When he had the chance right there in front of the world to tell Vladimir Putin to stay the hell out of American democracy and he didn't do it.
In other words, Trump should just shut up and not question a questionable indictment which Acosta, like nearly all the media, treats as a conviction.
The media's handlers were even worse than their assets.
Former CIA Director John Brennan tweeted, high crimes and misdemeanors.
Former Chairman Michael Steele tweeted, That's how a press conference sounds when an asset stands next to its handler, which is embarrassing and shocking, Michael Steele.
I had more respect for you, Michael Steele, which was disgraceful on your part.
What are you, a complete total nitwit?
Representative Liz Cheney, the daughter of former Vice President Dick Cheney, who brought us 9-11, by the way, where he was the Executive Director.
As a member of the House Armed Services Committee, I'm deeply troubled by President Trump's defense of Putin against the intelligence agencies in the U.S.
and his suggestion of moral equivalence between the U.S.
and Russia.
Russia poses a grave threat to our national security.
Actually, Russia has far more moral integrity And leadership in the world in the United States at this point in our history, alas.
All these were reaction to Trump expressing skepticism about the U.S.
indictment on Friday of 12 Russian intelligence for allegedly interfering in the U.S.
presidential election while he's standing next to Vladimir Putin.
I will say this, I don't see any reason why it would be Russia, Trump said.
I have great confidence in my intelligence people But I will tell you that President Putin was extremely strong and powerful in his denial today.
Of course, he'd subsequently be put under so much pressure, he had to go back and say what he meant was, no reason why it wouldn't be Russia.
But there was no hacking!
None!
Zero!
Zilch!
Zero!
It's baloney!
Bullshit!
The indictments, which are only unproven accusations formally accused 12 members of the GRU, Russian military intelligence, of stealing Democratic Party emails in a hacking operation, giving the material to WikiLeaks to publish in order to damage the candidacy of Trump's opponent Hillary Clinton, The indictments were announced on Friday, three days before the summit, with the clear intention of getting Trump to cancel.
He ignored cries from the media and Congress to do that.
Over the weekend, Michael Ciancione actually said that indictments proved that Russia committed a terrorist attack against the United States.
This is in line with many pundits who are comparing this indictment that most likely will never produce any evidence to 9-11 and Pearl Harbor.
The danger inherent in that thinking is clear.
Trump reasonably questioned why the FBI never examined the computer servers of the DNC to see whether there was a hackin' who might have done it.
Instead, a private company CrowdStrike hired by the Democratic Party studied the server and within a day blamed Russia on very dubious grounds.
Why haven't they taken the server, Trump asks?
Why was the FBI told to leave the office of the Democratic National Committee?
I've been wondering that.
I've been asking that for months and months, and I've been tweeting it out and calling it out on social media.
Where is the server?
I want to know, where is the server?
And what is the server saying?
But being a poor communicator, Trump then mentioned Clinton's missing emails, allowing the media to inflate the two different servers and be easily dismissed as by Bergen.
At the press conference, Putin offered to allow American investigators from the team of Special Counsel Robert Mueller, who put the indictment together, to travel to Russia to take part in interviews with 12 accused Russian agents.
He also offered to set up a joint cybersecurity group to examine the evidence and ask in return that Russia be allowed to question persons of interest to Moscow and the U.S.
Let's discuss the specific issues and not use the Russia-U.S.
relationship as loose change for this internal political struggle, he said.
On CNN, Christiane Amanpour called Clinton's clear offer obfuscation, obviously outing herself as another deep state agent.
Even if Trump agreed to this reasonable proposal, it seems highly unlikely his Justice Department would go along.
Examination of whatever evidence they have to back up the indictment is not what DOJ has to offer.
As I wrote about this case in detail before, the extremely remote possibility of convictions were not what Mueller was apparently after, but rather the public perception of Russia's guilt Resulting from fevered media coverage of what are after all only accusations presented as though they were established facts.
Once that impression is settled into public consciousness, Mueller's mission would appear to have been accomplished.
Here's a wonderful piece by Patrick J. Buchanan.
Trump calls off Cold War II.
Beginning his joint press conference with Vladimir Putin, President Trump declared that U.S.
relations with Russia have never been worse.
He then added pointedly, that just changed about four hours ago.
It certainly did.
With his remarks in Hilsinki and at the NATO Summit in Brussels, Trump has signaled an historic shift in U.S.
foreign policy that may determine the future of this nation and the fate of his presidency.
He has rejected the fundamental premises of our American foreign policy since the end of the Cold War and blamed our wretched relation with Russia, not on Vladimir Putin, but squarely on the U.S.
establishment.
In a tweet prior to the meeting, Trump indicated the elites of both parties indicted the elites of both parties.
Our relationship with Russia has never been worse thanks to many years of U.S.
foolishness and stupidity and now the rigged witch hunt.
Trump thereby repudiated the records and agendas of the neocons and their liberal interventionist allies, as well as the archipelago of War Party think tanks beavering away inside the Beltway.
Looking back over the week from Brussels to Britain to Helsinki, Trump's message has been clear, consistent, and startling.
NATO is obsolete.
European allies have freeloaded off U.S.
defense while rolling up huge trade surpluses at our expense.
Those days are over.
Europeans are going to stop stealing our markets and start paying for their own defense.
And there will be no Cold War II.
We are not going to let Putin's annexation of Crimea or aid to pro-Russian rebels in Ukraine prevent us from working on a rapprochement and a partnership with him, Trump is saying.
We're going to negotiate arms treaties and talk out our differences as Ronald Reagan did with Mikhail Gorbachev.
Helsinki showed that Trump meant what he said when he declared repeatedly, peace with Russia is a good thing, not a bad one.
On Syria, Trump indicated he and Putin are working with Bibi Netanyahu, who wants all Iranian forces and Iranian-backed militias kept far from the Golan Heights.
As for U.S.
troops in Syria, said Trump, they will be coming home after ISIS is crushed and we're 98% there.
That's another underlying message here.
America is coming home from foreign wars and will be shedding foreign commitments.
But before and after the Trump meeting, the cable news coverage was as hostile and hateful toward the president as any this writer, Patrick Cannon, has ever seen.
The media may not be the enemy of the people.
Trump says they are, but many are implacable enemies of this president.
Some wanted Trump to emulate Nikita Khrushchev, who blew up the Paris Summit in May 1960 over a failed U.S.
intelligence operation.
The U-2 spy plane shot down over the Urals just weeks earlier.
Khrushchev had demanded Ike apologize.
Ike refused, and Khrushchev exploded.
Some media hope to be hoping for just such a confrontation.
When Trump spoke of the foolishness and stupidity of the U.S.
foreign policy establishment that contributed to this era of animosity in U.S.-Russia relation, what might he have had in mind?
Was it U.S.
provocatively moving NATOs into Russia's front yard after the collapse of the USSR in violation of solemn treaties negotiated between Ronald Reagan and Mikhail Gorbachev?
Was it U.S.
invasion of Iraq to strip Saddam Hussein of weapons of mass destruction he did not have that plunged the U.S.
into endless wars in the Middle East?
Was it U.S.
support of Syrian rebels determined to oust Bashar al-Assad, leading to ISIS intervention in a seven-year civil war?
With half a million dead, at war which Putin eventually entered to save his Syrian ally?
Was it George W. Bush's abrogation of Richard Nixon's ABM Treaty and drive for a missile defense that caused Putin to break out of the Reagan INF and start employing Kriz missiles to counter it?
Was it U.S.
complicity in the Kiev coup that ousted the elected pro-Russian regime that caused Putin to seize Crimea and hold on to Russia's Black Sea naval base at Sevastopol?
Many Russian actions we condemn were reactions to what we did.
Russia annexed Crimea bloodlessly, but did not.
The U.S.
bombed Syria for 78 days to force Belgrade into surrender, her cradle province of Grykova.
So how is that more moral than what you did in Crimea?
If Russian military intel hacked into the emails of the DNC exposing how they stuck it to Bernie Sanders, Trump says he did not collude in it.
Is there, after two years, any proof he did?
Trump insists Russian meddling had no effect on the outcome, and he's not going to allow media obsession with Russiagate to interfere with establishing better relations.
Patrick Buchanan has it right.
The deep state and the mainstream media have it wrong.
Support the President of the United States.
Say, I, Jim Fetzer, your host, here on The Raw Deal.
Thank you.
Were they conspiracies?
Have you ever wondered if we really did go to the moon?
If Paul McCartney died in 1966 and was replaced by an even better musician?
Did you know that Saddam Hussein died in a B-1 bomber strike on 7 April 2003 and was replaced by one of his doubles, who was put on trial and hanged in his place?
Or that Osama bin Laden died in Afghanistan on the 15th of December 2001 and was buried in an unmarked grave in accordance with Muslim traditions?
That the raid in Pakistan was faked?
There's more, including four chapters about the end of World War II which prove that events we'd been taught were very different than we have been told.

That the Twin Towers were blown apart by a sophisticated arrangement of mini or micro nukes.
That Building 7 collapsed seven hours later because of explosives planted in the building.
Barry Jennings was there.
He heard them go off and felt himself stepping over dead people.
The U.S.
Geological Survey conducted studies of dust gathered from 35 locations in Lower Manhattan and found elements that would not have been there had this not been a nuclear event.
Ironically, that means the government's own evidence contradicts the government's official position.
9-11 was brought to us compliments of the CIA, the neocons of the Department of Defense, and the Mossad.

Just as I praise Robert David Steele, I praise Scott Bennett, who's been given a series of brilliant interviews.
Some have been broadcast on Russian television, some on press TV.
He is a former U.S.
Army intel and psyops officer, of course, and has his own show right here on Revolution Radio, the same time slot as mine, entitled Shell Games, with his colleague Michael J. Anderson, who's a Vietnam War veteran and political activist.
Scott Bennett is one of the most honorable men I've ever known, and I'm tremendously impressed with the interviews he's been given.
They are virtually spectacular.
I therefore recommend you all pay attention, and if you have a chance, catch his show with Michael J.
The shock at Putin's treatment, but Netanyahu gets a pass.
This is Juan Cole from the University of Michigan, an author, a blogger, and a professor.
He just published a piece.
He's shocked at Trump's romance with Putin, but gives Israel's Netanyahu a pass.
He writes, inside the Beltway crowd was absolutely outraged and appalled by Trump's performance at Helsinki.
There, Trump violated all the principles of American hawkishness.
While Putin's behavior has been objectionable, there is something profoundly hypocritical about the U.S.
elite pretending that the U.S.
doesn't embrace people like Putin all the time.
Take Israeli Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu.
He is guilty of most of the same infractions held against Putin.
Netanyahu openly campaigned for the Republican candidates in 2012 and 2016.
He openly interfered in U.S.
politics by insisting on addressing Congress to derail the Iran nuclear deal, a quest in which he ultimately succeeded, putting the U.S.
closer to war footing with Iran.
In fact, Netanyahu was one of those foreign influences pushing Trump to do a grand bargain with Vladimir Putin.
Israeli leader allegedly pushed for lifting U.S.
sanctions on Putin and is circling return for Putin pushing Iran out of Syria.
Netanyahu runs firings against the United States far more aggressive and extensive than those of European countries.
The seriousness of which congressional staffers have found sobering.
Netanyahu is in the process of annexing the Palestinian West Bank, to which he has much less claim in international law than Putin does to the Crimea.
The Soviet Union assigned Crimea to Ukraine only in the 1950s, when the latter was the Soviet Socialist Republic, but Russian possession of it went back to the 18th century.
Netanyahu is presiding over an apartheid state in which 4.5 million of the 12.5 million people controlled by the Israeli government are stateless in bestiature, patrolled by the Israeli military.
Netanyahu has even had people poisoned.
He doesn't cite the example, but I cite Yasser Arafat, I'm sure, was a victim of poisoning by none other than Bibi Netanyahu.
So in Trump's fanboy performance with Putin in Helsinki, Trump waxed lyrical about how close the U.S.
is to Israel and did opine that Iran needs to leave Syria.
Nobody in D.C.
is complaining about that piece of psycho-fancy.
In Washington, it's alright to slam Trump for treason.
It isn't really treason, since the U.S.
isn't at war with the Russian Federation, by the way.
Or for making nice with Putin in spite of the latter's various misdeeds.
But it is political death to criticize Netanyahu's interference in American foreign policy, or aggressive Israeli land theft, or Israel setting the U.S.
up for conflict with Iran.
But there is no domestic Russia lobby, so it's alright to slam Putin.
I think he's got it right.
Further developments.
Israel has now approved that Israel is a Jewish nation state by law in a Thursday morning vote.
This is just last Thursday.
Israel's parliament has approved the final language of the long debated Jewish nation state law which revises the nation's basic law to declare Israel the national home of the Jewish people.
The vote passed 62 to 55.
The bill has been under consideration in various forms since 2011 and was designed particularly to encourage Israeli courts to view Israel's Jewish character as a priority over concerns about democracy.
The bill also downgrades Arabic from an official language to simply one with special status.
Most recently, the bill has added language encouraging the establishment of Jewish-only communities, which along with the downgrading of Arabic has fueled complaints that the law is effectively trying to enshrine Israeli-Arab status as second-class citizens as a matter of basic law.
The Jewish community's language was downgraded just before the vote to avoid major disputes, and now those communities are not formally forbidding Arabs.
And Arab MPs who complained about the bill following the vote were expelled from Parliament.
MP Ahmed Tibi, in particular, declared the bill a racist law, leading Prime Minister Netanyahu to furiously condemn him for daring to criticize it.
In addition to the nation's Arab minority, Israeli leftists were also critical of the bill, warning that it threatens to upset an already difficult balance between Israel's Jewish and democratic values, and risks doing long-term harm to the latter for the sake of the former.
Leaked NetYahu tape!
We made Trump cancel the Iran deal!
This is from Zero Hedge by Tyler Durden.
On Tuesday, an Israeli television channel aired leaked video footage it obtained exclusively showing Prime Minister Bibi NetYahu boasting that he had personally convinced President Trump to abandon the Iran nuclear deal.
The statements were made at a small dinner event where he addressed senior members of his Likud, or terrorist party.
The video aired by Israel's Khan News shows Netanyahu enthusiastically praising his and Likud leadership's efforts, saying, We convinced the U.S.
President to exit the deal, and I had to stand up against the whole world and come out against this agreement, he added, and we didn't give up.
According to the translation of the Prime Minister's words by the Times of Israel, He further agrees that the Iranian regime will disappear with the help of God.
In the words of one of his supporters, to which Netanyahu adds, you said it from your mouth, to God.
U.S.
court, another development, U.S.
court rules Jews are a protected race under the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
This is published in Haaretz, a leading Jewish newspaper.
Here is what it reported.
Jewish people are protected by a law against racial discrimination in employment decisions of federal magistrate judges concluded in siding with a football coach suing a private Baptist college in Louisiana.
The nation's highest court hasn't defined what race means under the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
U.S.
Magistrate Mark Hornsby sat in a court filing Friday, but he concluded that Jewish citizens have been treated as a racial and ethnic group entitled to the law's protection against employment discrimination.
Modern sociologists and anthropologists, especially with advancement of DNA studies, debate whether Judaism is a people, a religion, or both.
There's no doubt, however, that many people haven't continued to view being Jewish as a racial identity, he wrote.
By the way, the most recent DNA study showed that the occupants of Israel are descendants of Because Zarians in Eastern Europe are not of the tribe of Judah, which means that because the Arabs actually are a Semitic people, and the Israelis are not, that modern-day Israel is the greatest practitioner of anti-Semitism the world has ever known.
The magistrate issued his filing in a civil case football coach John Bonadonna filed against Louisiana College in February.
Bonadonna claimed the college's president, Rick Brewer, refused to approve his hiring because of what he allegedly called the applicant's Jewish blood.
The magistrate recommends allowing Bonadonna to continue pursuing his claim that Pineville College racially discriminated against him because of his Jewish heritage.
Here's a fascinating report.
Top Israeli officials were part of KGB's spy ring.
Report.
This actually is from a couple of years ago, but it's very timely in the context of today.
K... K... K... K... K...
KGB files reportedly reveal the existence of an extensive Soviet spy ring in Israel, encompassing Knesset members, senior IDF officers, engineers, members of the Israeli intelligence community, and others who worked on classified projects.
Top Secret KGB documents reported on, by Hebrew language daily, Yadoth Aronah, Wednesday, detail the extent of the network of agents run by Soviet Secret Service.
The documents were copied over a period of 20 years by Vissal Mitrakhon, Senior KGB archivist who defected to the UK in 1992.
His edited notes on various KGB operations were released in 2014 and are stored in Churchill College in Cambridge.
His handwritten notes remain classified by MI5.
There have been several developments on stories that I frequently reported that provide stunning confirmation.
Here's one.
Obama's birth certificate is a forgery.
This is a relatively short video that's a very thorough dissection.
You're not a birther.
Obama's birth certificate is just a forgery.
This is really a very impressive piece of work.
You can find it on YouTube still, I believe.
Here we have a page from his birth certificate that shows it was a fabrication, but the evidence is very thoroughgoing.
In fact, I gather Obama is actually openly declaring Kenya was the home of his birth.
Here's a report on the Boston Marathon bombing, the false prosecution of Dzhokhar Sarinov by Paul Craig Roberts, our nation's leading public intellectual.
Here he's reporting work by John Remingham Graham, who's a retired professor of law, Who, when I consulted with him long ago in preparing and editing the book, and nobody died in Boston, neither state-sponsored terrorism with Hollywood special effects, believed that it was that the backpacks don't match.
When they photoshopped the Serenade Brothers into the scene at the Boston Marathon, they committed a blunder.
The FBI reported both its investigation of the bombing itself and in the indictment for Zoker that the two backpacks that exploded were black nylon backpacks but when they photoshopped the brothers in they gave Zoker a silver backpack bearing no resemblance and And Tamerlan, his older brother, a dark backpack, but much larger and different in shape than the backpacks that exploded.
It's outrageous.
There it is.
We have ample proof.
All you could possibly ever want.
And nobody died in Boston, either, from moon rock books.
We have the MGM Resorts suing the Vegas shooting victims, which is a very bizarre development to deny liability.
MGM Resorts International has sued more than a thousand victims of Las Vegas mass shooting in an attempt to dodge liability of the music festival massacre last October.
Reportedly killed 58 and injured hundreds of others, but we know the whole thing was a fraud.
This is extremely interesting because we're talking about a whole lot of victims who are crisis actors recruited by crowds on demand.
Who have actually been given payoffs to the tune of between $250,000 and $400,000.
Keep their mouths shut about it.
What are they going to do now?
They're being subjected to lawsuits.
MGM argues in federal lawsuits filed in Nevada and California, it cannot be held liable for any deaths, injuries, or damage during the shooting.
Any claims against the company must be dismissed.
They cited 2002 Federal Act that extends liability protection To any company that uses anti-terrorism technology or services that can help prevent and respond to mass violence.
To protect concert goers, MGM claimed it had hired Contemporary Services Corporation.
A company certified by the Department of Homeland Security for protecting against and responding to acts of mass injury and destruction.
The federal court is an appropriate venue for these cases and provides those affected with the opportunity for a timely resolution.
Deborah DeShong, MGM Resort spokesman, told the Las Vegas Review-Journal, years of drawn-out litigation are not in the best interest of victims of community and those still healing.
We have another report about the Aussie Fest, where Hillary Clinton appeared looking totally disheveled, grossly overweight, looking unhealthy in the extreme, where it was reporting that she appears to be planning to run for president in 2020, but without any doubt it wouldn't be Hillary, it would be one of her doubles.
In the book, From Orlando to Dallas and Beyond, we already established three of Hillary's doubles.
I've done much more now in the video entitled the Fake News Issues of Identity.
You can find it at 153news.net.
Check it out.
Hillary's used I would estimate a dozen doubles, including during the debates, but not only with Bernie Sanders, but also with Donald Trump.
Here's a news report from the Investors Watch blog.
Why the Russian collusion narrative makes no sense.
Daniel Carter writes, this week's meeting between President Trump and Vladimir Putin in Helsinki Triggered the most hysterical response from the mainstream media that I've ever seen.
And in the Trump era, that's really saying something.
The media took what was a typical meeting between heads of state and turned it into a clown show.
According to their twisted world view, the meeting was undoubtedly treason and further evidence that Trump was colluding with Russia all along.
However, a sober analysis of the U.S.
relationship with Russia paints a much different picture.
Floor, several observations are calling to question the validity of the Russia collusion narrative, voting to give Trump more power.
Some of the loudest voices screaming about collusion between Trump and Russia are high-ranking establishment politicians in Congress.
But if Trump is truly a Russian agent, why would people such as Nancy Pelosi and Adam Schiff, who often promote the collusion narrative, which is of course a monster Conspiracy theory with no basis whatsoever.
Vote to keep warrantless surveillance in the hands of Trump.
That would just give Putin more power, wouldn't it?
Democrats and Republicans, including John McCain, another loud proponent of the collusion narrative, also voted to keep the powers of war declaration in the hands of Trump.
So, according to their own wild conspiracy theory, they voted to give Putin the power to declare war, Whenever and wherever, he'd lie with the full force of the U.S.
military.
These people are either liars or morons, maybe both.
Trump policy is bad for Russia.
The mainstream media would have you believe President Trump is actively sacrificing American interests to benefit Russia.
However, Trump is at the very least as tough on Russia's previous modern-day president.
In 2017, Trump signed a sanctions bill on Russian banks, oil and gas companies, and wealthy individuals.
He even signed the bill knowing that it barred him and future presidents from rolling back the sanctions.
It makes no logical sense.
Now, this comes from an intel agent with whom I have long association, who is completely brilliant.
It makes no logical sense, but it makes a lot of political sense that the deep state can get Congress to declare the election invalid and install Hillary as president before she is unable even to sit up covered with a drape.
They can use a double after that and no one is likely to question that any more than they question the sexual identity of Michelle or the national identity of Barry.
Congress, deeply worried about this talk of term limitations, may very well come up with an overwhelming vote in favor of a fantasy.
It would not be the first time they have done precisely that.
How many of them have denounced or even questioned the hoaxes that Jim is tirelessly exposed to be hoaxes?
How many have said, before we get into votes of condolence for victims of Sandy Hook, Boston bombing, Mandalay Bay, etc., we should try to find out what really happened, if anything?
I've yet to hear a congressperson coming up with that kind of remark.
You have to admit that the gangsters running these scams have a superb understanding of the low reaches of human nature, which is most of it.
By the way, there are a series of memoranda being released, being orchestrated by Robert David Steele, where I've served as a source, making recommendations of a number of appropriate individuals to contribute, many of whom have been included.
Here's one by John Lear.
Memorandum for the President.
9-11 Twin Towers were not hit by nor destroyed by two airliners.
Mr. President, the 9-11 Commission refused to take evidence from pilots for 9-11, truth of which I am a member, with over 19,000 hours of flight time, much of that flying covert missions from the CIA, including 18 world speed records in a Lear Jet Model 25.
No Boeing 767 airlines hit either of the twin powers, as fraudulently alleged by the government media, NIST, and their contractors.
All of the evidence to affect, including video depictions, has been fabricated and can be forensically challenged.
You yourself, Mr. President, one of the most experienced property owners in New York City, have correctly observed the buildings could only have been brought down by explosives, as planes would never have been able to penetrate the steel beams Had it exactly right.
I leave it to you to create a new independent commission to examine all the possibilities, including thermite, pre-planted explosive TNT, directed energy weapons from above, and nuclear explosions from below.
My focus is on the physical impossibility of the specific alleged aircraft crashing into either of the twin towers.
And of course, John Lear, like I, endorsed the use of holograms.
There are only three theories that can explain it.
One is CGI, computer-generated images.
Another is video compositing, or adding the images of the plane to live footage before it was broadcast.
And the third is the use of holograms.
But with either CGI or video compositing, there would have been no images in the sky to have been observed by witnesses, and yet we have hundreds of witnesses reporting having seen what they took to be real planes in the sky.
That can be done on the basis of a new holographic technology, for example, for Richard D. Hall.
In his 3D Flight 175 radar study you can find online, about 22 minutes long, explains exactly how it was done, how he took some 52 videos and found about 47 allowed him to establish the location and time of Flight 175, that he then discovered that NISD had provided a similar location and time based upon LED radar data,
He didn't believe their claims, but found radar data that did provide location and time, but for a plane that was 1,400 feet to the right of the images, leading him to speculate that the images were created by projections from the plane that actually was captured on the radar, whereas the images in the video were not, because they were not physical things.
And indeed, I was sent a page from an Australian military manual for an airborne holographic projector doing precisely this.
Subsequently, for reasons I do not profess to understand, Richard D. Hall has done an update in 2016 of his prior study that is, in my opinion, grossly inferior by suggesting that there was actually a cruise missile that was cloaked with the image.
But that doesn't explain the, you know, the other data that was accounted for by his previous brilliant work, showing that a man's later work is not necessarily superior to his earlier.
One of the interior sci-fi moments of the big screen, R2 and D2 beaming a 3D image of Princeton's Leon to thin air in Star Wars, is closer to reality thanks to the smallest of screens' dust-like particles.
Scientists have figured out how to manipulate nearly unseen specks in the air and use them to create 3D images that are more realistic and clearer than holograms according to a study in Wednesday's journal Nature.
The study leads author Daley Smalley said the new technology is Printing something in space, just erasing it very quickly.
Even with all sorts of holograms already in use, this new technique is the closest to replicating that Star Wars scene.
The way they do it is really cool, said Curtis Broadbent of the University of Rochester, wasn't part of the study but works on computer technology.
You can have a circle of people staying around and each person would be able to see it from their own perspective and that's not possible with a hologram.
Tiny specks are controlled with laser light, like the fictional tractor beam from Star Trek, said Smalley, an electrical engineering professor at Brigham Young University.
Yet it was a different science fiction movie that gave him the idea, the scene from the movie Iron Man, when the Tony Stark character dons a holographic glove.
That couldn't happen in real life because Stark's arm would disrupt the image.
Going from holograms to this type of technology, technically called volumetric display, is like shifting from a two-dimensional printer to a three-dimensional printer, Smalley said.
Holograms appear to the eye to be three-dimensional, but all the magic is happening on a two-dimensional surface.
The key is trapping and moving the particles around potential disruption by Tony Stark's arm, so the arm is no longer in the way.
It's happened now here.
And of course, Military technology is 20 to 30 years ahead of what the public is allowed to know.
Here's another important memorandum.
Aeronautical engineer.
Memorandum for the President.
No Boeing 757 hit the Pentagon.
Dear Mr. President, according to the 9-11 Commission Report of 2004, American Airlines Flight 77, a Boeing 757, was flown into the Pentagon in a row and 400 miles an hour barely skimming the ground and taking out a series of lampposts on its approach.
As a pilot and aeronautical engineer, however, that cannot be correct.
High-speed flight in relatively close proximity to the ground is virtually impossible in any fixed-wing aircraft.
An exception would be cruise-type missiles whose flying surfaces are more akin to horizontal fins than wings, and thus have extremely high wing loads, pounds per square foot, much higher even than ground-attack fighter-bombers.
Commonly invoked photos of aircraft in flight close to the ground do not depict flight at anywhere near maximum speed.
There are photos taken of craft flying at greatly reduced throttle settings, which is what actually happens during any landing.
I have a missing memorandum from Pilots for 9-11 Truth where I go through the issues here and point out we already have ample evidence to support the no-planes theory, namely that Flight 11 didn't hit the North Tower, Flight 77 didn't hit the Pentagon, Flight 93 didn't crash in Changsville, Flight 75 didn't hit the South Tower,
You want to check it out, go to my blog at jamesfetzer.blogspot, and don't miss the commentary, because Barbara Honiger has published a post that I find extremely revealing, to which I have responded.
Meanwhile, if you want a global overview of 9-11, don't miss going to BitChute 9-11, who is responsible and why.
Where I did a two-over interview that appears to be consistent with all of the memoranda that have been published here before by Robert David Steele.
