Paul Sperry: Democrat Operative Posing as a "Whistleblower" Was Himself Tasked With Digging Up Ukranian Dirt on Trump and Manafort

But it's different when leftwingers do it. We expect them to be awful.

One of the texts, if it's authentic, has a US diplomat saying 'I think it's crazy to withhold aid in exchange for a political favor.'

They serve as a roadblock to what the founders envisioned as the purpose of the presidency: to receive ALL executive powers so that he or she has NO EXCUSE not to get done what they promised.

When we distribute power around in the executive branch, the President has to fight to wrestle back executive power withheld from him or her.

100 Somebody should explain to that dunce Pelosi, the constitution provides responsibility to the "House" for impeachment proceedings. Read NOT Democrats or any one party. So Democrats have subverted the Constitution and rules to create a fake impeachment, the effect of which nullifies and subpoena request or other activities. That is, it is an illegal proceeding.

I wish them luck as any court will strike this circus down.



Posted by: Marcus T at October 04, 2019 12:17 PM (VpIIl)

101 One of the texts, if it's authentic, has a US diplomat saying 'I think it's crazy to withhold aid in exchange for a political favor.'

That statement was by a man named Taylor, a Charge d'affairs in the US embassy there. But right there in the transcript, the very next line, is the person he's talking to saying "you're wrong, that's a complete misrepresentation of what we're doing."

So you have the conflict between Obama people and the new Trump people right there, they were fighting right from the start about Ukraine. And I wouldn't be surprised if this Taylor prick was feeding info to the "whistleblower".

Biden used his position of power to enrich his son. Seeing if Ukraine or China or anyone else has looked into those arrangements isn't untoward.

It may seem unfair considering Trump's position, but it's definitely something that should be expected.

I do expect this to get turned around, though. The next Democratic president will push every foreign country, in the open, to look into the challenging Republican. The media will hype up everything forever.

A Republican Party unwilling to fight won't survive that.

So Democrats have subverted the Constitution and rules to create a fake impeachment, the effect of which nullifies and subpoena request or other activities. That is, it is an illegal proceeding.

192 Sounds like another member of the pre-election "we'll stop him" team. Probably more than a partisan hack, he was a subversive helping maintain the DeepState control (six ways to Sunday to get you back) over elected officials.


Our last four presidents were DeepState compliant, so they built their internal army of subversives. There was the special handling for Hillary crew, and it seems Brennan has his own special handling subversive elements, building a globalist regime funded by "Deplorables".


The Operation Whistleblower effort looks to be full of the same DeepState fixers that are probably under investigation. So they are running these ops from within ... whose side is Haspel on? And Wray? Probably DeepState, which is why Rudy/Barr/Pompeo are so directly involved? They can't trust the bureaucrat subversives ... moles are everywhere.

197 DJT needs to hold a televised address to the American People, and lay out the following, as an explanation of what Your President is doing, and to address the loose talk of "betraying the Country" being advanced by Congress:

1. That the Russia investigation was an intentional hoax, that wasted millions of dollars of taxpayer money, and pitted American against American in a cynical attempt to overturn a lawful election.
2. That the American Republic requires that all parties to the process accept the outcome of duly held elections. Which did not occur post 2016, evidenced by the Russia-collusion hoax. As such, those who pushed the fake collusion narrative are in fact threatening the foundations of our Republic.
3. Therefore, it is of the highest importance for the US Government, with full force of the Executive and the Attorney General, get to the bottom of the origins of the Russia hoax, including obtaining information from an investigation that was already undertaken on this by Ukraine prior to any US request.
4. That to this purpose the President has asked, and will continue to ask, for assistance of Ukraine, for all information it has as to any hacking of US servers, and origins of the "Russia collusion" hoax.
5. This is all the more so as the DNC never even let the allegedly hacked server be investigated by the FBI, role of Crowdstrike, and that Donna Brazile has admittedly destroyed the server. So having destroyed the direct evidence, we must now rely on other sources. But this was their doing.
6. It is dishonest to characterize requests for appropriate information from any/all governments, so the US can get to the bottom of actual crimes, including as to who hacked what, or if it was covered up, as "impeachable" or "betraying the US"
7. If there were US officials such as former VP Biden engaging in selling his office and pressuring Ukraine on behalf of his son, it is also in the interests of the US to know this, and to be sure this is punished so that US diplomacy can be trusted abroad.
8. Anyone claiming that investigating what appear to be actual crimes is "impeachable" is simply trying to deflect and obstruct justice, and can go pound sand.

DJT needs to hold a televised address to the American People, and lay
out the following, as an explanation of what Your President is doing,
and to address the loose talk of "betraying the Country" being advanced
by Congress:



1. That the Russia investigation was an intentional hoax, that
wasted millions of dollars of taxpayer money, and pitted American
against American in a cynical attempt to overturn a lawful election.

2. That the American Republic requires that all parties to the
process accept the outcome of duly held elections. Which did not occur
post 2016, evidenced by the Russia-collusion hoax. As such, those who
pushed the fake collusion narrative are in fact threatening the
foundations of our Republic.

3. Therefore, it is of the highest importance for the US Government,
with full force of the Executive and the Attorney General, get to the
bottom of the origins of the Russia hoax, including obtaining
information from an investigation that was already undertaken on this by
Ukraine prior to any US request.

4. That to this purpose the President has asked, and will continue
to ask, for assistance of Ukraine, for all information it has as to any
hacking of US servers, and origins of the "Russia collusion" hoax.

5. This is all the more so as the DNC never even let the allegedly
hacked server be investigated by the FBI, role of Crowdstrike, and that
Donna Brazile has admittedly destroyed the server. So having destroyed
the direct evidence, we must now rely on other sources. But this was
their doing.

6. It is dishonest to characterize requests for appropriate
information from any/all governments, so the US can get to the bottom of
actual crimes, including as to who hacked what, or if it was covered
up, as "impeachable" or "betraying the US"

7. If there were US officials such as former VP Biden engaging in
selling his office and pressuring Ukraine on behalf of his son, it is
also in the interests of the US to know this, and to be sure this is
punished so that US diplomacy can be trusted abroad.

8. Anyone claiming that investigating what appear to be actual
crimes is "impeachable" is simply trying to deflect and obstruct
justice, and can go pound sand.

Like many of Trump's choices for agency heads, he's been at work downsizing and weakening the agency. The fact that this isn't being reported much is actually a good thing, it means no pushback and more space for them to work in. Like how the FDA's offices are being greatly reduced and the people put in branch offices around the nation in rural areas.

Its behind the scenes low key stuff. You can't just eliminate an agency that congress has created but you can clean out a lot of the deadwood and waste. Its up to congress to eliminate old useless and wasteful agencies.

There are some good things it does.

It actually owns and maintains American Nuclear Weapons.

It should be pushing for more and stronger energy infrastructure. Make it EMP / Carrington Event resistant. Push for modern pipelines. Especially in the Midwest.

There is, but I really think that is not their motive. It might be the Clintons' motive (and their wing of the Party), but I think most of them are there for the power. It doesn't matter how shitty the hill is, so long as they are kings of it.

If Washington has anything in greater abundance than money, it's power. I think power - power of life and death, over where you shop, over your life and everything in it - is the real prime mover that keeps their rotten totalitarian hearts beating.
Posted by: Joe Mannix (Not a Cop!)


They are old fashioned communists. Full stop. They want the money and the privilege and the power. They want to force everyone else to bow down to the state because THEY ARE the state. They believe completely that they are the only ones who have rights because only THEY deserve to have rights. They have been in bed with Russia for decades. That's what this is about. Their ties to Russia. Their ties to the Russian puppet government in Ukraine. Their kids get big money jobs and they get paid to make sure the American citizens are kept hobbled by joblessness, inflation, and expensive energy prices.
Democrats in congress have been doing this for years. Environmental horseshit to make energy prices skyrocket. Force u.s. to import more oil.and become more dependant on opec. More taxes, more regulations to cripple more industries and make us more dependant on communist China for ever fucking thing. Changes in school curriculum to make kids believe that communism /progressivism /socialism is all good and capitalism is killing the planet.
Since the early 1900s the only goal of the democrat party has been to cripple the United States and force communism on this country. They have been able to hide that plan for a long time. And the dems thought they were finally in charge forever and could do what they always wanted to do. But, now, the monsters they aredemanding results and their true goals and crimes are being revealed.
Donald Trump is destroying them and they have to destroy him first.

We are in a state of political war, with both sides going all out to destroy each other now. The House has made the choice to do NO legislation of any kind for the rest of this term (except for some CR's, I imagine). So how is Trump supposed to "work on the deficit" in those circumstances?
Posted by: Tom Servo at October 04, 2019 01:01 PM (Kpl3J)

Outside of a few honest people, you can just replace any concern with debt with the phrase "I don't want military spending for defense". That seems to be the only time it comes up generally.
