The New York Times?CNN's Fusionphilic former Obama official Jim Sciutto published some more #FakeNews -- that the US had "extracted" a Russian spy in 2017 because the CIA feared that Trump would tell Putin about him. But Chuck Ross notes that lovebirds Strzok and Page were discussing their "sisters" (the CIA) "leaking like mad." In 2016.
The CIA extracted a Kremlin mole from Russia in 2017 out of concerns that media scrutiny would expose the longtime spy, according to a New York Times report. The CIA and the New York Times also debunked CNN's latest FakeNews fiction. The Central Intelligence Agency on Monday evening slammed what it called CNN's "misguided" and "simply false" reporting, after the cable channel's chief national security correspondent authored a hole-filled piece claiming that the CIA had pulled a high-level spy out of Russia because President Trump had "repeatedly mishandled classified intelligence and could contribute to exposing the covert source as a spy." The extraordinary CIA rebuke came as The New York Times published a bombshell piece late in the evening, which largely contradicted CNN's reporting. According to the Times, CIA officials "made the arduous decision in late 2016 to offer to extract the source from Russia" — weeks before Trump even took office.Indeed, NBC's Fusion Ken Dilanian identified the man as likely currently living in Virginia. NBC was so personally worried for this spy's life they even knocked on the man's door. Are they operating on a tip given to them by Trump? I would think it more likely that he's once again being fed information by Fusion GPS. Many people on the right are excited by this story -- because they think this is the Fusion Conspiracy's last attempt to set the narrative before the indictments which they anticipate will start being filed. Byron York did a podcast with Catherine Herridge four days ago. The podcast did not cover this "we had to extract a spy!" story, as that story hadn't broken yet. I was interested to see that two fairly sober people seemed to think that the previous IG report on Comey was "setting the table" for the upcoming reports -- with the implication being that the upcoming reports would be more damaging, and would result in indictments. They don't actually say that, and so therefore they have no reporting that they can confirm which says that. That does seem to be what both are sensing/hearing, though. One speculation is that this guy was someone whose Trump Collusion claims were shopped to Steele by Deep State operators -- so that Steele could type them up, and recycle them back to the Deep State in another attempt at circular reporting -- and that the whole extraction was mostly due to the Deep State wanting to gin up its conspiracy theory with a "lives are in danger!" storyline. The New York Times debunked central claims of the CNN story, noted below the fold

While it was less significant, by far, all of the media parroted Nancy Pelosi's press release that Trump had 'leaked' her plans to hire charter a plane to Afghanistan, and thereby placed her safety in jeopardy.
This was the day after (less than than 12 hours) he canceled her AF flight, and suggested that she hire a plane. Not a *single* 'journalist' asked her when she had made these 'plans', or what they were, or how Trump might have known about it, and *what* he 'leaked'. They just reported it as news.

Posted by: Insomniac at September 10, 2019 07:11 PM (NWiLs) 64
"Baseball's Sad Lexicon," also known as "Tinker to Evers to Chance" after its refrain, is a 1910 baseball poem by Franklin Pierce Adams. The eight-line poem is presented as a single, rueful stanza from the point of view of a New York Giants fan watching the Chicago Cubs infield of shortstop Joe Tinker, second baseman Johnny Evers, and first baseman Frank Chance complete a double play. These three players helped the Cubs win four National League championships and two World Series from 1906 to 1910.
"Baseball's Sad Lexicon" became popular across the United States among sportswriters, who wrote their own verses along the same vein. The poem only enhanced the reputations of Tinker, Evers, and Chance over the succeeding decades as the phrase became a synonymous with a feat of smooth and ruthless efficiency.

So, this Sooper Secret Russian spy spilled the beans on how Putin stole the 2016 election, so the CIA obligingly settles him, under his own name, in the Washington DC area.
Putin kills spies who spill actual secrets, and he doesn't care if he does it abroad. If the CIA really thought that this guy was at risk, they would have changed his name, and settled him a long way from the Russian embassy or consulates. Russia now doesn't have a consulate farther west than Houston - you could settle the guy in a rural area west of the Rockies, and it would be difficult for the Russians to get to him, given the restrictions we currently impose on the movements of Russian diplomats. But no, we're going to settle him in the DC area, where hundreds of Russian diplomats and underground agents can knock on his front door, just like NBC did. RUSSIA!!! RUSSIA!!! RUSSIA!!!

"20 When NBC is knocking on your spy's front door, I think it's safe to say you're doing it wrong."
Mark it: this is their A-game. Trump wasn't ousted because those who tried are consistent screw-ups. I refuse to entertain the idea that anyone of substance will be prosecuted for the coup attempt, but CNN's hiring of McCabe does mean something. I think it's to somehow cover their own asses and involvement in the coup, but it's a long slog from there to the Deep State offering up the head one of its own. Sad even to flirt with the idea of something remotely resembling justice, but hard to give it up totally. We lost something beautiful to grifters and clock watchers and monsters who slithered into authority positions they were to incompetent to hold and to corrupt to surrender once the gig was up.

grammie, love you. But the first game we ever attended to see the Cubs, we were seated with our 5 y.o. son and my in-laws behind the Cubs dugout.
The Braves (we were rooting for) lost, and the Cubs fans near us began screaming "F-you!" at us, and threatening us in many other ways. Our son was terrified, and so were my in-laws. One guy yelled at my husband, "I'll whip your redneck ass!" Have been to many Braves/Cubs games in Atlanta, and the stands were made up nearly half and half. Have never seen a Cubs fan and his family threatened with physical violence. I've hated the Cubs ever since that awful experience. Still love you, though.

We can say "oh that happened," but that won't stand up in court. Barr knows this. So it's a lot of unsexy documentation, checking and re-checking witnesses, digging out documents and so on. Oh, and remember, the DNI obstructed the whole way. All the classified stuff has to go through declassification and we already know the FBI lies about all of this. So that's an additional hurdle.

I'm just hoping that trump is just biding his time until he wins in 2020 and can't run again. I'm hoping thats when he unleashes the fully armed and operational Death Star.

If you're a fan of Laurel and Hardy,
you should make the effort to see- "Stan and Ollie".(201 It's an excellent movie about the later years of "the boys", their semi-falling out, and their last tour. It sounds like a drag but it's not. Great script, great acting, great directing. Superb movie biography. Check it out. Posted by: naturalfake at September 10, 2019 07:56 PM (mIQCW) 295

>>I placed my bet well over a year ago though. It's going slower than I expected.
I placed mine on McCabe 2 years ago. But really, it hasn't been that long. Anybody remember how long the Whitewater investigation took? And what really needs to be remembered was that nothing was really happening on the counter investigation while Mueller's team was working. Obstruction was the real thing they were trying to get Trump on, they knew that Russia collusion was a joke early in the investigation. So they waited. People keep saying "Why didn't Mueller investigate all the corruption in the Obama administration too?". 1) Are you kidding me? You wanted that corrupt team to investigate the Obama administration that they loved? 2) He didn't investigate it because he wasn't told to investigate it by Rosenstein. See reason 1) There are ties to Russia. To Ukraine. To Australia. To Italy. To the UK. To Israel. Not to mention just about every possible agency in the Obama administration and the Hillary campaign. They can do it fast or they can do it right. I want it done as much as anyone but I want it done right. Posted by: JackStraw Expert On Stuff at September 10, 2019 07:57 PM (ZLI7S) 299

maybe the spy is really came back to testify against McCabe, Brennan, Mueller, Hilda ... the whole coven. And Brennan tried to expose him to get him killed off ... seems we should really know nothing about the spy, except for Brennan and the gang leaking, as their (evil) nature is. And they do what they always do ... accuse Trump of leaking ... to cover up that is was them leaking, endangering.

Normally this would sound crazy, but I think it's possible the CIA extracted him so they could easily exterminate him when and if needed. And this leak possibly means the CIA is trying to create a narrative that Putin did it when the time comes. CYA and all that...
