Many thanks to Stefan Molyneux for inviting me on his show (watch below) to walk through the epic failure at this week's Mueller hearings on the part of the GOP to nail to the wall the fraudulent basis for the entire Mueller investigation -- for that matter, the fraudulent basis of the entire Trump-Russia deception. I am talking about the Big Lie that Russia hacked the election to help make Donald Trump president. After Robert Mueller's testimonies, this delegitimizing Big Lie stands unquestioned because no GOP member dared to overturn the foundational rock of the anti-Trump conspiracy by asking: Why did the FBI fail to investigate the DNC server that the DNC claimed was attacked by Russia in the summer...

I am certainly no stranger to the far end of a limb, but this time, I am really out there. I watched the Mueller hearings and despaired. I saw the Original Sin of Trump Russia -- "Russia hacked the DNC," shaped by time and messaging into "Russian interference in 2016 on behalf on Donald Trump" -- enter the record, accepted and even regurgitated by the GOP.

But Mueller gave a foggy performance! He never even read his own report! Impeachment is dead! The response by the estimable Mollie Hemingway typifies conservative satisfaction.



I rubbed my eyes, tried to smile, but it didn't work. I still felt snookered and betrayed...

It is 2:17 pm ET and I have watched Robert Mueller testify for many hours before the House Judiciary and Intelligence Committees up to this moment. I now despair of any single Republican pulling the pin on the anti-Trump conspiracy. That is, no Republican has been willing to ask the basic, elemental Russia-gate question: Why should We, the People rely on a redacted, draft report by Crowdstrike, a DNC contractor with a spotty record, co-founded by a Mueller protege named Shawn Henry, for the sensational finding that Russia hacked the DNC? Such a finding has serious political and national security implications, as we all well and wearily know. Acording to Crowdstrike -- but not according to FBI investigators or any other government or independent investigators -- Russia "hacked" the DNC, and, the story goes, gave the "stolen" emails to Wikileaks publisher Julian Assange, thus "interfering" with the 2016 election of Donald Trump.

On this 75th anniversary of the assassination attempt against Hitler led by Claus Graf Schenk von Stauffenberg (above), it is appropriate to ask the question: Why didn't the US government support the anti-Nazi German resistance? The answer, which is shocking, lies in Chapter Ten of American Betrayal, which opens with an epigraph from Gen. Wedemayer: "The irony of it all is that the Soviet empire is largely one of our own creation."

Here are the first pages:

I can hear the carping: But the USSR was our ally against Hitler.

No. The USSR was not our ally. It was our secret master-manipulator. We were secretly master-manipulated, not into defeating the Nazis, who, but for the de facto Soviet occupation of Washington, I now am persuaded could have been eliminated in 1943, but rather into decimating, obliterating, Germany, Soviet Russia’s natural barrier against expansion into its European empire. Japan, very much too, for that matter, in the East.

If ever there was a sick society, it is Britain. Eaten from the inside first by Marxism, which collapsed its faith, families and traditions, the nation was then beset by massive Islamic immigration, which introduced new predators into the decaying socialist ecosystem, some of whom would target the weak, English girls, in new and horrific ways. These young girls, who, in this already broken society, always seemed to be on the loose in their high streets and mean streets, became sexual prey in a hideous hunting process we would learn, in horror, was called "grooming." Mainly Muslim "grooming" gangs were pedophile rape gangs, prostitution gangs, drug gangs, umma-imported-mafias of sexual degredation and violence, preying on the English communities in which these immigrants now lived. Is this the "multicultural" design Tony...

This is the opening installment in an occasional series. 

I begin this review of Judgment in Moscow: Soviet Crimes and Western Complicity by Vladimir Bukovsky with a confession: I despair of doing justice to this monumental work. 

Why? Judgment in Moscow is not a book only. Its very release is a historic event. Its top-secret contents were never supposed to see light of day. Its author is one of the great heroes who ever walked the earth. Such extraordinary attributes call for special treatment; however, that’s not even the end of the book’s special challenges. There is also the perplexing fact that the magnitude of this publication will not be readily evident to most “younger” readers...

We have arrived at a point in U.S. history that even our Founders, in their nearly infinite wisdom, may not have foreseen.

Regarding Election 2020, we are faced with the grave question of whether enough Americans remain in the 50 states to go to the polls to affirm the continued existence of the United States of America by voting for Donald Trump.

If the answer is no, if Americans are outnumbered and even surrounded by those animated by an openly anti-America agenda promoted by the Democratic Party, 2020 could be a terrible turning-point of no return.

This tells me it’s here: that pedal-to-the-metal moment, over a century in the making, when our potential survival as a nation-state really does seem to hang in the...

From War Diaries 1939-1945 by Field Marshal Lord Alanbrooke, p. 487.

The date is November 30, 1943. The event is an evening banquet at the Tehran Conference of FDR, Churchill and Stalin.

Alanbrooke writes:

It was a wonderful evening, full of the most witty speeches on the part of Winston, President and Stalin. On one occasion, when Winston was referring to political tendencies in England he said the whole political world was now a matter of tints and that England could be said to have now quite a pink look. Without a moment's hesitation, Stalin snapped back "a sign of good health!" The President finished up by returning to the tint theme and said that the effect of this war would be to blend all those multitudinous tints, shades and colours into one rainbow where their individuality would be lost in the whole, and that this whole represented the emblem of...

On June 5, the county prosecutor announced that the circuit judge sealed the documents and statements obtained by police.

There is something so timely about this 2013 interview with Erick Stakelbeck, an excellent interviewer, that I decided to repost it.

A lot of buzz around AG William Barr's CBS interview.

I refer to the Special Counsel's mud-slinging exit-call to Congress to impeach President Trump for non-charges related not to the hoax of Russian collusion with Trump -- Mueller's report took that off the table -- but rather related to the hoax of Russian "intereference" in Trump's election. In both cases, Russia's alleged role is unproven, and controverting evidence exists that strongly...

On March 3, 1945, under prodding from both the senior US military commander and US ambassador in Moscow, FDR cabled Stalin to request “urgently” that provisions be made for ten American rescue crews to move in and out of Soviet-captured territories to evacuate liberated American prisoners or war, many of whom required medical attention.

Here is the link to the show. My segment with Sean and Gregg Jarrett begins at around 35 minutes in. 

Doris Day died today at age 97. Here she is, effervescent, in her first movie, "Romance on the High Seas" with Jack Carson and Oscar Levant. RIP.

Brilliant! Hat tip Vlad Tepes. As Vlad says, four of the most awesome minutes of TV of all time -- starring Rasmus Paluan, with support from the unbelievable faces (masks) of his political competitors (including the Prime Minister at the other end of the stage), all of them dazed, frozen, perplexed to hear the truth broadcast to Denmark in prime time. 

Will it make a difference? At least the air is clear.

The answer may be July 24, 2016. That was when Clinton campaign manager Robby Mook, appearing on CNN, publicly debuted the "Russians helping Donald Trump" Big Lie to explain away and neutralize the publication at Wikileaks of thousands of embarassing DNC emails, especially about the party's official diss of Bernie Sanders' primary campaign. (Earlier iterations of "Putin Hates Hillary" welcome at deathofthegrownup@verizon.net.) This Big Lie depended on more mythology -- namely, that the DNC emails came to public attention through a Russian "hack," not an internal "leak" -- the assessment not of the FBI, but rather another Democratic partisan, the DNC contractor, Crowdstrike.  



This quickly morphed into "Putin hates Hillary."

Two bloodcurdling stories of strange and terrible note:

Except that it's an "Ummah Day" children's musical celebration of jihad terror by a troupe of putatively American kids, as uploaded to the to the Facebook page of the Muslim American Society Islamic Center in Philadelphia. That's Philadelphia, PA, USA, not Ramallah or Beirut.

Sing-along with Muhammed includes such hits as "Glorious steeds call us and lead us [to] the Al-Aqsa Mosque. The blood of martyrs protects us... Take us, oh ships... until we reach our shores and crush the treacherous ones... Flow, oh rivers of martyrs!" and the like. One girl read a poem praising martyrs who sacrificed their lives for Palestine, and she asked: "Will [Jerusalem] be a hotbed for cowards?"

Yesterday, Facebook and Instagram "banned" Laura Loomer, Milo Yiannopoulos, Paul Joseph Watson, Alex Jones for being "dangerous."

Loomer, Milo, Watson and Jones are all superstar supporters of Donald Trump. Their ideas, stunts, messages and personalities are of great interest to multitudes of Americans. That's what's "dangerous" about them. 

“Read Orwell,” Yiannopoulos texted the Washington Post. “You’re next."

Milo's point is well taken but the Washington Post is unlikely to be next because the Washington Post is not "dangerous." We, the People, who are "dangerous" to the Deep State are next, and that especially includes all Trump supporters and even Trump himself.

I asked Isikoff whether he thought the Russia reporting had gone overboard. ‘I think it’s fair to say that all of us should have approached this, in retrospect, with more skepticism, particularly when we didn’t know where it was coming from,’ he said. ‘We knew that Steele compiled it, but that Steele did not hear these allegations himself. Somebody else heard them from others and then passed them along. That’s third hand stuff, which is not usually the kind you want for publishing.’

Hesitant about working my way through the Mueller report, I found myself gratified to hear Rep. Devin Nunes’s assessment of the thing.

According to Nunes, there is only one item of relevance in the entire 450-page document. While it is an item of significance, it confirms something many have long suspected.

Nunes explained that on page 11 there is a veiled disclosure to the effect that the “scope memo,” the directive Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein gave Special Counsel Robert Mueller in August 2017, included “the Steele dossier,...

Even as fires raged and consumed Notre Dame uncontrollably before the crying eyes of the world, the narrative was being carefully constructed in its newsrooms. Had to be an accident, most likely. Just one of those things, probably. Renovation work was going on, dontcha know. There must have been a spark in the attic and, whoosh, Notre Dame was aflame.

Maybe that is exactly what happened! However, there was something doubly nightmarish about watching not one, but two Fox anchors (Shephard Smith, Neil Cavuto) prevent guests from discussing a spate of recent attacks, including arson, on Catholic churches in France lest some logical discussion of the possibility that we were looking at an epic attack of anti-Catholic or anti-Christian arson might ensue -- and you know where that goes.

I wouldn’t call it an out-of-body experience exactly, but I did get a thrill to read in the autobiography of former CIA Director Richard Helms, “A Look Over My Shoulder,” strong validation of the line of research I followed to write my brand-new book, “The Red Thread: A Search for Ideological Drivers Inside the Anti-Trump Conspiracy.”

It’s this same line of research, Helms’ book explained in 2003, that helped identify Soviet agents.

Helms, who led the CIA between 1966 and 1973, was recounting a post-retirement luncheon he had with a World War II buddy from the Office of Strategic Services (OSS), the precursor to the CIA. It was the day before Helms was to meet with the CIA’s counterintelligence staff, and his old friend told him: “Remind them that no intelligence agency can for very long be any better than its counterintelligence component. And recommend that they chisel the words into the granite entrance out there.”

My latest op-ed for The Epoch Times is "How Mueller Protects the Deep State"

Former federal prosecutor Andrew C. McCarthy has published a shocking op-ed, explaining why he suspects that Special Counsel Robert S. Mueller III has known for the past 18 months, since fall of 2017, that there was no Trump-Russia “collusion.”

Personally, I suspect Mueller knew earlier still, and certainly no later than the day he became Special Counsel, his very appointment resulting from leaking chicanery by his longtime “law enforcement twin,” James Comey. (Muller and Comey both were thought of as “rising stars mentored and guided by Eric Holder in the 1990s,” according to the Washingtonian)

McCarthy has laid out a logical argument based on dates and FISA warrants...

The short answer is perhaps twofold. First, no one bothered to explore your intense admiration for Niebuhr's anti-Constitutional conception of government-coerced "justice"; second, few among the cynics and manipulators in charge of the US government find anything alarming about it. On the contrary, it gave you instant entree into Club Deep State. No wonder you and you "law enforcement twin" Robert Mueller) were seen...
