The Morning Report — 6/6/23

Good morning kids. Robert Hanssen died yesterday at the age of 79. For those who are to young to remember, here's a brief snapshot. It links to the NY Post for those wishing to avoid a Murdoch organ (can't seem to find it at any conservative site so far).

Hanssen was found dead inside his Colorado supermax jail cell on Monday. He was 79. . .
. . . Under the alias “Ramon Garcia,” Hanssen exchanged highly classified national security information to his Russian handlers from 1985 until his arrest in February 2001.
“He wanted to be James Bond, and he thought they’d made him a librarian,” O’Neill told The Washington Post when asked why he believes Hanssen spilled secrets.
O’Neill revealed that Hanssen was patriotic but was unpleased as an employee of the Bureau after hopes of being a field agent were replaced with being assigned to work as an analyst.
Hanssen was confirmed to be working with the Russians after O’Neill copied data off the spy’s personal PalmPilot, which provided the FBI with the location of his next dead drop with his handlers. Some of the information that Hanssen was providing the Russians two KGB officers who were secretly working for Washington, and were killed as a result.
His payment over time for his betrayal of oath and service to America was $1.4 million in cash and diamonds.

The rest of the article is worthless tripe about how this agent Eric O'Neill had "mixed emotions" about hearing of Hanssen's death, blah, blah, blah.

So Robert Hanssen sold out his country for a measly $1.4 million and evidently was some sort of pervert sex pest as well. Yes, his crimes resulted in the deaths of at least two of our intelligence assets. Horrid as this guy was, is what he did any worse than this?

With all this talk of Russians allegedly interfering in U.S. elections, it is worth recalling that it wasn’t too long ago that the previous Democrat in the White House betrayed America by working hand in hand with our Communist enemies in mainland China.
As president, Bill Clinton essentially wiped out any strategic advantage the U.S. had by selling advanced U.S. missile technology to our enemy, the People’s Republic of China.
That “administration’s voluntary release of all the secrets of America’s nuclear tests, combined with the systematic theft of the secrets that were left as a result of its lax security controls, effectively wiped out America’s technological edge,” David Horowitz writes in the recently published, The Black Book of the American Left Volume 7: The Left in Power: Clinton to Obama.
Unlike the administrations that preceded it, the Clinton administration accepted millions of dollars from the military and intelligence services of at least one hostile foreign power. All of this was done in exchange for illegal campaign contributions from a massive totalitarian country determined to eclipse the U.S. as a world superpower.
President Clinton also lifted security controls, allowing thieves to access other vital military technologies, while disarming his own side and opposing needed defenses.
“One of the key technological breaks China received, without having to spy to get it, was the deliverance of supercomputers once banned from export for security reasons,” writes Horowitz. . .
. . . [Hilary Clinton's] campaign chairman John Podesta became a member of the board of directors of solar energy startup Joule Unlimited in 2011. Eight months later Rusnano, a Kremlin-backed investment fund announced it would invest around $35 million in Joule. A few months after, about the time Podesta joined then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s Foreign Affairs Policy Board, Rusnano Chairman Anatoly Chubais joined Joule’s board.
Podesta has been less than forthcoming about his relationship with the Russian government. “What he doesn’t like to talk about is the business he’s done with a Kremlin-backed investment firm and the lengths he’s gone to avoid scrutiny of this relationship,” the Wall Street Journal reported Oct. 23.
And in August the FBI and Justice Department announced they were investigating the Podesta Group, a lobbying and public relations firm co-founded by John Podesta, for any connections to corruption that occurred in the government of former Ukraine President Viktor Yanukovych. Russia-controlled Uranium One retained the firm in 2012, 2014, and 2015, to lobby Clinton’s State Department and was paid $180,000 in fees.
Uranium One shareholders gave the corrupt Bill, Hillary and Chelsea Clinton Foundation more than $145 million in donations in the period before Hillary’s State Department approved a transaction giving Russia control over 20 percent of U.S. uranium. And as Russia, which initially didn’t have a controlling interest in Uranium One, was gearing up to take over the company, Bill Clinton received a whopping $500,000 for a single speech on Russian soil. . .
While the Clinton administration was working to improve relations with China, “the Chinese themselves were systematically plotting to penetrate the Democratic Party, subvert America’s electoral process, and—with the help of the president himself—infiltrate the administration and steal America’s advanced weapons arsenal.”

Emphasis mine. This article dates to just after the 2016 election shockeroo the put Donald Trump in the White House. Keeping that pull quote in mind, the rest as they say is history. And we're still living it.

Poor Robert Hanssen. What a short sighted fucking chump. Especially in light of the above as well as what the FBI has devolved into. Meh. Check that. The FBI likely always has been a hack corrupt political hit squad. It's just that now, all of it's out in the open. Interesting timing in that Hanssen got nailed just after the end of the Clinton era, and was active from Reagan into Bush and all during that time the Clintons were in bed with the Russians and Chinese.

So the salient question remains. And on top of the Clintons, lest we forget the very agency that Hanssen worked for and those who were right at the top.

For nearly 20 years, the FBI allowed informant Whitey Bulger to continue his crime spree. His criminal activity included countless murders. Bulger was the head of the Winter Hill Gang, a criminal syndicate that operated in the Boston area for decades. The federal law enforcement agency let the Irish mobster and his crime family do as they please in return for tips on the Italian mafia. Dismantling the mafia was the FBI’s highest priority. Bulger only passed on worthless information.
FBI Special Agents John Connolly and John Morris were accomplices to Bulger’s criminal activity, including murder. The Bureau’s complicity with Bulger became public in 1997. The lone FBI agent who tried to end the Bureau’s ties with Bulger was ignored and drummed out of the agency.
The FBI involvement with Bulger was so corrupt that the agency permitted the murder conviction of four innocent men, Peter Limone, Joe Salvati, Henry Tameleo, and Louis Greco, by allowing a witness to lie, and by withholding exculpatory evidence in order to protect another informant, the actual killer, and Bulger criminal accomplice. Three of the four men were given death sentences. Their sentences were later changed to life imprisonment. . .
. . . In the 1980s, the acting US Attorney for the Massachusetts District launched an aggressive campaign to pressure the Massachusetts Parole Board to keep the framed men imprisoned. That federal prosecutor was Robert Mueller, who would become the FBI Director two decades later. Mueller was the Justice Department’s chief prosecutor in Massachusetts when Bulger was at the height of his criminal spree, including murder, and was being shielded by federal authorities.
The four innocent men were exonerated in 2001 after serving more than three decades in prison, and after secret FBI files revealed the bureau’s corruption.
The wrongly-convicted men were paid a settlement of nearly $102 million, although only two received the money directly, since Tameleo and Greco died in prison.
The level of Mueller’s knowledge of and involvement in the FBI and Whitey Bulger corruption scheme has never been fully explained. In 2007, while serving as FBI Director, Mueller dismissed the matter commenting, "I think the public should recognize that what happened, happened years ago."

That would be the same Robert Mueller who led the probe into Trump's "Russian Collusion." The probe that not only found nothing but that Mueller was found to be only a figurehead, who when grilled during a Congressional hearing sounded as if he was starting to sundown like Joey Sponge-Brain Shits-Pants and John Fetterman. It was Andrew Weissmann that actually led the two-year sham paper chase. He's now a legal analyst on a junta propaganda house organ and claiming Trump will be indicted for the so-called "documents scandal." This turd as a legal analyst on TV is the moral equivalent of Adolf Eichmann hosting a klezmer festival.

Meanwhile, in another part of the forest, there's Christopher Wray:

The confidential human source (CHS) behind the detailed allegations that then-Vice President Joe Biden agreed to accept money from a foreign national to affect policy decisions was reportedly “highly credible” and used by the FBI in multiple criminal investigations dating back to the Obama administration. Friday’s exclusive by Fox News provides further insight into Sen. Chuck Grassley’s focus on the FBI — as opposed to the Biden family — as the primary scandal in play.
“We aren’t interested in whether or not the accusations against [then]-Vice President Biden are accurate,” Grassley said during an interview last week discussing FBI Director Christopher Wray’s refusal to comply with the congressional subpoena issued for the FD-1023 form. That form, dated June 30, 2020, included detailed information from a CHS to the FBI regarding an agreement by now-President Biden to deliver preferred foreign policy positions for a $5 million payment. . .
. . . Yes, the CHS’s allegations offer more evidence of a Biden family pay-to-play scandal, and unraveling any criminal conduct by the Biden family remains important. But more significant to the future of our country is uncovering government actors responsible for violating the rule of law: America can survive select injustices, but it cannot withstand a corrupt bureaucracy that obstructs justice and interferes in elections.
Yet that is precisely what occurred, according to the whistleblower. He claimed that “in August 2020, FBI Supervisory Intelligence Analyst Brian Auten opened an assessment which was used by a FBI Headquarters’ team to improperly discredit negative Hunter Biden information as disinformation and caused investigative activity to cease.” The whistleblower further alleged that the FBI HQ team that handled the Auten assessment, after concluding the reporting was disinformation, placed the information in a restricted access sub-file that only the particular agents who uncovered the CHS’s information could access. . .
. . . Not only does this evidence suggest FBI headquarters obstructed justice, but the date of the CHS’s report indicates those responsible for misbranding the intel as disinformation sought to interfere in the 2020 election.

Ah yes. Joe Biden and his entire sick, criminal family. A laptop that contains a battery of howitzer-sized smoking guns of evidence proving over 50 years of him selling every office he ever held to the highest bidder, up to and including some of our biggest foreign adversaries and enemies. Hello, Burisma, to name just one.

Between the Bidens and the Clintons alone, we're talking hundreds of millions of dollars that kept them wealthy and most of all, in power.

I'm no special pleader for Robert Hanssen. But what he did and what he got paid for it isn't even a rounding error, monetarily speaking or perhaps national security wise. The blood on his hands is another matter and is not to be dismissed at all.

What the Bidens, Clintons and probably many other names in government (Pelosi, Kerry and maybe even Romney) have done is far worse by orders of magnitude. Worse than selling our secrets to our enemies, they utilized the instrumentalities of government to help overthrow a duly elected president. And now, they are hell bent on making that permanent.

It's beyond insulting that they not only walk around freely, but they wear the moldering skin-suit of patriotism and demand respect. If only Robert Hanssen ran for office as a Democrat, he'd probably be where Christopher Wray is today.

Today marks 79 years since the events of arguably one of, if not the most pivotal moments of the 20th century. It is painful to recall the horror and suffering on those beaches and landing grounds, but it is supremely cruel to consider that what they sacrificed to prevent is perhaps well on the way to being established. The fact is, if I want to stand on ground that is the closest thing to the country that I recognize as America, I have to go to a national cemetery.

24 Hanssen was confirmed to be working with the Russians after O’Neill copied data off the spy’s personal PalmPilot, which provided the FBI with the location of his next dead drop with his handlers. Some of the information that Hanssen was providing the Russians two KGB officers who were secretly working for Washington, and were killed as a result.
++++
This is borderline illiterate but through context, I read this as, "O'Neill pulled data off of Hansen's Palm Pilot, which showed that Hansen was selling information to the Russians. This information included the identities of KGB agents who were working with US intelligence. Those KGB agents were subsequently killed."

Assuming my read of this incomprehensible word noise is correct, it's all bullshit. The first Palm Pilot came out in 1996 - five years *after* the fall of the USSR and the end of the KGB. How could information that Hansen gave the Russians in the Palm Pilot era result in the death of KGB agents? If Hansen gave the Soviets information about KGB double agents, his Palm Pilot wasn't part of the transaction.

Someone I worked with was getting her polygraph to maintain her clearance shortly after the Hanssen arrest. She told the agent straight up: "The last time I was here I failed because the person running the polygraph was determined that he was going to catch the next Robert Hanssen. If you are the same way, I want another person."

She ended up passing that time.

This isn't a sentence, this is noise. What the hell does this mean? I read it as, "Materials that Hanssen provided to Russian intelligence included information about two KGB double-agents who were secretly working for US intelligence. The two agents were killed as a result of this disclosure."

Is that right? I don't know. The sentence is incomprehensible trash. If it is right, what does that have to do with Hanssen's Palm Pilot in the prior sentence? Where does the time warp come in? Are the two thoughts in the paragraph actually related?

We'll end up with nothing to show for it except more debt. It's like California high speed rail on a grander scale.

58 Today is the 80th anniversary of D-Day. There were no guarantees of victory. This was President Roosevelt’s national prayer:

“Almighty God. Our sons, pride of our nation, this day have set upon a mighty endeavor. A struggle to preserve our republic, our religion, and our civilization and to set free a suffering humanity. They will need thy blessings for the enemy is strong. He may hurl back our forces but we shall return again and again.

“And we know that by thy grace and by the righteousness of our cause, our sons will triumph. Some will never return. Embrace these Father and receive them, the heroic servants, into thy kingdom and O Lord, give us faith. Give us faith in thee, faith in our sons, faith in each other and faith in our united crusade. Thy will be done, Almighty God. Amen.”

Of all the mealy-mouthed leftist defenses of violence, I find "it's just property" to be among the most intolerable.

There is no such thing as "just property." Property is owned. Property belongs to someone. That someone had to work to get it. That property is part of his life. It should absolutely be defended and there is an absolute right to defend it.

92 NYC Mayor Says City Might Have To Put Migrants In ‘Private Residences’

Greetings, citizen. You are being assigned these seven "migrants". Odd are fair that none of them is either a murderer or rapist. Should the odds not be in your favor, rest assured that your death - or sexual assault - will help usher in a new, brighter future for people more important that you.

Ace handles it in bulk. Most people don't know this, but Ace has Nikola Tesla's earthquake machine. When he gets enough of 'em piled up, he turns on the shake-maker and lets it do the work en masse.

Mellon wrote that he has referred four witnesses to the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) who claimed to have knowledge about a secret government program "involving the analysis and exploitation of materials recovered from off-world craft," and that other sources have contacted him about an "alleged secret U.S. government reverse engineering program."

162 DU really wish casting that DeSantis is not liked.

Before this spring’s state legislative session, a majority of Floridians believed the state was on the right track (46% right track / 42% wrong track). At the close, however, 50% believe the state is headed in the wrong direction, while only 42% think it’s on the right track.

In February, 5he Hub’s polling showed DeSantis with a 60% approval rate and the Florida Legislature with 49% support from voters. In late April and Early May, their surveys found that the governor’s approval rating dropped by a whopping 19 points (50% approve / 49% disapprove).

Yes, BUT the setting is a very good FL economy and jobs. Which makes the drop quite striking. There's nothing to attribute it to BUT his far right attack dog, even fascistic behaviors.

survey shows several key bills passed by Republicans are strongly opposed by a majority of people across the state:

* 78% of Floridians oppose permitless carry of concealed weapons (20% support).

* 56% don’t support the state’s near-total abortion ban (41% support).

Well, there's also the fact that it's this blog's commenting system that allows it to be such a fun place and proves to be mostly resistant to trolling. Now like button, no registration (that would eliminate the fun nics such as BEN ROETHLISBERGER, no nesting of discussions that would keep them separate and make it easy for one trill to disrupt/destroy all interesting conversations. . .

168 Neo-Nazis in Ukraine Might be a Problem After All, Says New York Times

The Nazi symbolism use by Ukrainians may be tied to the Holodomor, derived from the Ukrainian words for hunger (holod) and extermination (mor).

Between 1931 and 1934 at least 5 million people perished of hunger all cross the U.S.S.R. Among them were at least 3.9 million Ukrainians.

Ironically, this is the stuff that NYTimes reporter Walter Duranty lied about when he was busy getting a Pulitzer Prize.

It seemed there were 3.9 million reasons not to side with Joe Stalin.

if they have the specimen Right There in order to "reverse engineer" it, can we agree that it is no longer Unidentified and can drop the UFO designation?

Furthermore, this is a demonstration in the stupidity and gullibility of the government educated population. Even with 100% mass → energy conversion to accelerate a 100kg object to c[/c]/10 ( E=mc² ) would require more energy than has ever been produced in aggregate in the industrialized world. Then you have to stop the object with those energy demands again. Forget the force of impact of running into a grain of sand in space at speed of light, there is no shielding capable.

Consider the possibility (likelihood, I think) that Ukraine didn't do it, either. Remember that this was no simple terrorist attack; this was a massive strike that only a powerful military force would be capable of. The strike has destroyed the value of all of Crimea for both of them.

205 In 1984, 17 years before Hanssen’s arrest, Richard Miller, a 20-year veteran who was stationed at the FBI’s foreign counterintelligence unit in Los Angeles at the time of his arrest, was arrested for selling classified documents to Russian agents, one of whom he was having an affair with. In 1986, Miller was convicted and sentenced to life in prison. His conviction later was overturned but at a second trial in 1990 he was again found guilty. Miller was released from prison in 1994.

The second FBI agent caught spying for Moscow was Earl Pitts, who volunteered to become a mole for the KGB in 1987. He handed over classified information to the Russians until 1992, by which point they’d paid him more than $220,000. In 1996, Pitts was caught in an FBI sting operation. He pleaded guilty to espionage and in 1997 was given 27 years in prison.

... $220,000 seems kinda low for selling out your country

There is no reason to assume that we're not alone in the universe. We have found nothing else. Not even an alien bacterium. We can assume there are others but we have no basis on which to predict that there are.

And if it is there, existing is more than a bit different from "exists and is capable of interstellar travel" and that is more than a bit different from "exists and capable of interstellar travel and came here." There are so many assumptions tied up in that, so many negligible (even if they turn out to be non-zero) probabilities and so many leaps of faith given the brutal difficulty of interstellar travel even in theory that I don't consider it as a meaningful possibility.

The sudden UFO noise from the government is likely just a distraction from the various shit shows.

To assume all of this was created solely for the benefit of humans seems to be the height of arrogance.

C.S. Lewis played around with this idea in his Space Trilogy. The universe is full of non-human life. It's just that Earth was corrupted by a fallen spirit and thus was cut off from being part of that experience.

Recall the Mt Carmel contest between Elijah and the priests of Ba'al. The priests truly believed that they could call down fire from heaven. (why else take the bet?)

Plutarch, a early first century Greek historian, noted that after the passage of St Paul and the disciples through their communities (ref: Acts 16:16-18; 19:13) binding evil spirits (Luke 9:1) that the Oracles went silent.

That's my take. Does life elsewhere exist? Maybe. We have no way to know and no reason to assume that it does, but it could.

But it's irrelevant, because we can't get there and - unless we're completely wrong about physics (a possibility, to be sure) - they can't get here.

I can think of much better things to burn brain power on - like asking, "why now" on the UFO stuff? I don't doubt that there are many government files full of UFO activity. UFOs are real, and probably usually balloons and airplanes and the like. But why dredge it up now unless they need cover for something else?

So the demonic spirits were active until that beginning of the Church Age (aka The Age To Come in non-dispensational theology) when they were bound by The Twelve. Up to that time, there was all kinds of visible demonic activity. We currently are in an age where they are bound. According to Amillennial eschatology, we are presently in the Thousand Years age, where at the end, these captive demons will be release to do whatever they were doing prior to the Apostolic Age (or beginning of the Thousand Years). Rev 20:7

I submit that those who are near the Day of The Lord will witness some real wild activity not seen in two thousand years.

300 It's a *very* big universe. We can't even comprehend the true scale of the size of the universe.

To assume all of this was created solely for the benefit of humans seems to be the height of arrogance.

C.S. Lewis played around with this idea in his Space Trilogy. The universe is full of non-human life. It's just that Earth was corrupted by a fallen spirit and thus was cut off from being part of that experience.

Posted by: "Perfessor" Squirrel at June 06, 2023 09:22 AM (YIVH2)

Of course, it's probably to late to post now, but if you work from the position that the creator of the universe fills it with it's own presence, it's not arrogance. Think of yourself and the size of your house. Do you need a house the size it is? Can you touch the ceiling, or two walls at the same time? Maybe we're not who it was created for, but the text seems to be saying otherwise. It was six days, we may have been the last, but the owner told us to take possession of it, never said there was anyone else anywhere else. That's my position anyway.

I think thats... wrong. But more on a philosophical and outlooks way than a practical one. You never know how things are going to develop. Could people even 150 years ago have imagined the types of technology we have now (to say nothing of how we use it?)

Expanding. Exploring. Figuring out how the universe works has always seemed to me to be what God wants us to do. To explore his creation and in some small way understand it. By understanding His creation, we get closer to him- if in some small way.

Trying to argue to stay on this little pebble because it is difficult and the distances are massive seems to me to be... small minded and hopeless.

These men are owed a debt from succeeding generations that will never be paid nor should it be.

History shows that we have met and prevailed over issues even more serious than the current ones, and that record gives me unshakeable faith that we'll overcome this one.

320 Good morning, JJ. As always, you get right to the crux of the story.

And God help us.

Ever since the demise of the Soviet Union, Republicans have been far too eager to be the "go along to get along" party, completely ignoring massive criminal activities just to be at the D.C. table. And now we are here.

I'll add one note this morning in my personal war against RedState.com.
They seem almost giddy at news that Trump will be indicted by the DOJ. I guess they want to push his chief primary opponent over the line so badly, they will even use this abomination of our justice system to advance their "Trump can't win" or the "we've got to win" narrative. Of course that bunch always ignores the FACT that 2020 was illegally manipulated and stolen. They should be totally ashamed of themselves over there but they aren't because they're bought and paid for by the Republican Establishment.

339 324. "They have pledged to give 90% of their wealth to charity when they die." Paul, quit making stuff up.

WaPo, 9/30/99"Forgiving debt is good financial practice when it is unpayable, but much more importantly, it is the right way to reduce poverty," said Treasury Secretary Lawrence Summers.

The $27 billion program, in which the United States is also participating, applies to debt owed to international agencies such as the World Bank. Clinton's plan would affect only money owed to U.S. government bodies such as the Agency for International Development and the Export-Import Bank.

The Clinton administration said in June that it would forgive "up to 90 percent" of this debt owed directly to the United States, but it never put a precise number on it.

Never the Clintons.
