How To Steele An Election: James Comey & The Steele Dossier

by

DNC funded Steele Dossier, Comey legitimized it

Steele Dossier Background

In April of 2016 the Democrat National Committeee (DNC) learned of a breach into its computer server. The server contained many e-mails demonstrating the DNC leadership’s contempt for blacks, Jews, Catholics, “needy Latinos“, and Bernie Sanders supporters, among others. Other e-mails laid out their collusion with the media and their railroading of Bernie Sanders.

DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz initiated actions to limit the damage by directing the compliant media to a fictionalized conspiracy about Russian government hackers. Working behind layers of lawyers and PR firms, she hired cyber security firm Crowdstrike to “investigate” the alleged Russia hack. Crowdstrike found no physical evidence of Russian government involvement, but announced its conclusion implicating Russia based upon the hacker’s Russian-like methods and tools.

The DNC paid over $12 million to various legal and PR firms to create the Steele Dossier and other quack conspiracies which pushed the asinine Trump-Russia collusion fantasy.

In June, the DNC team hired former British intelligence agent Christopher Steele to put his name to the sensational head-fake known as the Steele Dossier. The dossier fraudulently accused Trump of Hollywood-style perversions, and of colluding with Putin to defeat Hillary Clinton.

The Steele Dossier allegations, contained in 9 reports totaling 35 pages, and compiled between June and December of 2016, struggled to find an audience. Team DNC repeatedly shopped the report to the New York Times, the Washington Post, CNN, Yahoo News and The New Yorker. The outlets reported some of the allegations which they attributed to anonymous sources. But they stubbornly refused to stake their reputations on the entire collection of unbelievable and unverifiable fairy tales. What to do?

Enter James Comey, stage left

If the report itself failed to move the media to publish it, maybe an FBI investigation would do it. So, in the summer of 2016 Steele briefed the FBI on his report. The FBI began obtaining warrants based on the phony claims in the dossier.

The CIA briefed Harry Reid and other Democrat politicians who reliably began talking up the Russia hack meme. Shortly before the election, when DNC funding ended, Comey’s FBI offered to pay Steele to continue his reporting. However, when details of the dossier began to leak to the public, the FBI decided against the arrangement.

“Maverick” GOP Senator McCain delivered a copy of the Steele Dossier to the FBI in December 2016, but they already possessed it. And still no major media outlet  would publish it in all its salacious glory. So on January 6, 2017, intelligence agency heads John Brennan, James Clapper and James Comey conducted a formal intelligence briefing with President-elect Trump.

After the formal briefing, FBI Director Comey privately notified Trump of the allegations in the Steele Dossier. Minutes later, the subject of the meeting – the Steele Dossier – leaked!

There were only two people in the meeting: Trump and Comey. Whose side leaked it? (If you can’t figure this out, you’re a Democrat.)

Purposeful Leaks Achieved Specific Goals

  • The leak of the Steele Dossier briefing enabled the colluding Democrat media to report the salacious allegations without attaching itself directly to the demented document. The existence of an FBI investigation into the dossier’s allegations lent credibility to the allegations, and provided the pretext for the media to cover it. Mr. Steele finally got a date to the prom!
  • The Comey leak of a memo regarding a prior meeting with Trump led directly to the appointment of the special prosecutor, who turned out to be Comey’s friend and mentor Robert Mueller.

Glenn Simpson’s Personal Anti-Trump Jihad Served Hillary’s Campaign

Fusion GPS founder Glenn Simpson personally approached Hillary donors with an offer to smear Donald Trump with fraudulent Trump-Russia collusion “research.” Simpson, a hyper-partisan Democrat smear merchant, experienced a deranged anxiety over the prospect of a Trump presidency.

Simpson recruited Steele and repeatedly encouraged him to shop the dossier to the media. The DNC funded Steele and Fusion GPS through its legal team at Perkins Coie.

Perhaps the most amazing aspect of Steele’s work is the incredible timeliness of his initial report. Hired on June 17, 2016, within just three days Steele somehow managed to unearth multiple talkative sources within the highest levels of the Kremlin, including close Putin associates. And he never left London!

James Comey elevated the relevance of the Steele Dossier by unquestioningly accepting its corrupt premise. The FBI apparently used the dossier’s allegations to obtain warrants against Trump associates. The dossier served as the impetus for the expansion of the Russian collusion investigation with the appointment of Comey’s friend Robert Mueller as special prosecutor.

The Trump-Russia collusion conspiracy theory is a wholly-owned operation of the DNC, the Hillary Clinton campaign, its allies within Obama’s intelligence agencies and a crusading, smear-spreading anti-Trump zealot.

Reviewing The DNC Trump Russia Collusion Drama

by

No Donald Trump in this Playbill

Cast of characters from DNC central casting; plot from Hillary’s hoohoo

The DNC Trump Russia Collusion drama is a deranged theatrical production. The various episodes essentially comprise just one grand scandal: The Democrat Party’s deceptive conspiracy to malign candidate Trump and his subsequent administration.

Each episode and all the characters move inexorably down the same plot line. It all comes together with the realization that Hillary Clinton, the Obama intelligence agencies and the DNC manufactured the whole thing. Every episode is a fiction.

The whole mentally abusive narrative comes into focus when you understand the following:

  • The e-mails and other information leaked from the DNC database exposed devastating instances of corruption and the contemptuous attitude of DNC leaders toward its voters.
  • The leaked material made its way to Wikileaks through a source within the DNC; not through a Russian government hacking operation. This has been proved by VIPS, an association of veteran intelligence officials who examined the metadata in the leaked material.
  • To deflect from the contents of the revelations, the DNC contrived the Russia Hack narrative. The FBI, Obama’s intelligence agencies and the media obligingly forwarded the fraudulent narrative.
  • The alleged Russian hacker, Guccifer 2.0, is a fictional character conjured by Democrat Party operatives on the day of the leaked material’s release.
  • Rogue DNC IT staffer Imran Awan had access to the databases of the DNC and 80 House Democrats for years prior to the leak. Arrested for bank fraud and defended by DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz, he is suspected of selling confidential information to foreign governments. (If you’re not getting suspicious now, you’re a Democrat.)
  • Wikileaks founder Julian Assange steadfastly denies that the material he released originated from the Russian government. After DNC staffer Seth Rich’s murder on a Washington DC street 10 days before Wikileaks’ first release, Assange offered a $20,000 reward for information leading to the culprit. DNC Chair Donna Brazile states that Hillary Clinton declined to offer a reward also.
  • Neither the FBI nor the private cyber security firms hired by the DNC offer any physical evidence that the Russian government hacked the damning material. An independent analysis showed that the original leaked e-mails and reports were doctored to include information which falsely attributed the documents to a Russian source.
  • The DNC bankrolled multiple layers of law firms and public relations hacks to produce the preposterous Steele Dossier. Fusion GPS, the hyper-partisan Democrat Party hit squad that hired Christopher Steele, specializes in astroturf campaigns on behalf of such clients as Planned Parenthood and the governments of Venezuela and Russia.
  • The FBI likely used discredited, unverified allegations in the Steele Dossier to obtain warrants against Trump associates slandered in the dossier.
  • Here is the sole intent of the Steele Dossier: To provide the basis for an FBI investigation into Trump’s campaign.
  • Fusion’s founder Glenn Simpson personally lobbied Democrat donors to fund his investigation of the Russian collusion conspiracy. Vanity Fair reports that the Trump-hating partisan had “grown deeply concerned by the prospect of a Trump presidency.“

The early timeline of the DNC Russia Hack narrative supports a conclusion that a concerted effort by Democrat officials, the Obama government and paid, partisan private organizations concocted the whole scheme:

  • April 2016: DNC suspects its servers had been breached.
    • Yeesh. Are we supposed to forget that Pakistani cyber-criminal Imran Awan had complete access to the DNC servers as well as those of 80 House Democrats?
  • May 5, 2016: Cyber security firm Crowdstrike tells DNC its examination shows evidence of a Russian hack.
    • The DNC blocked the FBI from examining its servers.The FBI did not object. This is the same FBI that forcefully raided Trump associate Paul Manafort’s personal home and absconded with all his computers, in an investigation with no national security implications whatsoever.
  • June 3, 2016: An acquaintance of Donald Trump, Jr. comes out of nowhere to arrange a meeting between Trump Jr. and a Russian attorney currently working with Fusion GPS.
  • June 9, 2016: The Russian attorney, Natasha Veselnitskaya, first meets with Fusion head Glenn Simpson and then with Trump Jr., and then with Simpson again.
    • She does not work for the Russian government, and she has no information about the Clinton campaign.
  • June 12, 2016: Wikileaks announces its imminent release of documents related to the Clinton campaign.
  • June 14, 2016: Crowdstrike publicly announces its conclusion that the Russian government hacked the DNC servers. Its assertion is heavily criticized by cyber security experts as lacking any evidence linking the hack to any Russian agencies. The DNC points the media away from its salacious documents by stating that the hack featured an anti-Trump opposition research document.
  • June 15, 2016: The fictional creature Guccifer 2.0 emerges on the internet with – you guessed it – an anti-Trump opposition research document.
    • Veteran intelligence agents determined that the document contained doctored metadata inserted to falsely attribute its origin to Russia.
  • June 17, 2016: Fusion GPS hires former British MI6 officer Christopher Steele, instructing him specifically to find information connecting the Trump campaign with the Russian government.
  • June 20, 2016: Miraculously, in just three days, 7 high-level sources, including senior Kremlin officials, had laid bare the inner workings of Russia’s vast intelligence apparatus, confiding in Steele the sinister details of perhaps the greatest plot in the history of Russian-American espionage. And we’re supposed to believe that Steele accomplished this historical feat without ever leaving his London offices.
    • The Steele Dossier detailed numerous incredible accounts of Trump’s supposed 5-year-long collusion with Kremlin officials, dating back to when he was a TV star! The report includes the salacious accusation that Trump hired prostitutes to urinate on a bed in a Moscow hotel.
    • Steele has not been to Russia in years, and he never communicated directly with his stated sources. He actually paid intermediaries who promised to communicate with the sources. He admits that none of the information was verified.
  • July 5, 2016: The DNC-contrived fictional character Guccifer 2.0 announces a new hack of the DNC server. Veteran intelligence agents who examined the details of the claim determined that there was no remote hack at all. The information was uploaded to a portable memory device by a person with physical access to the DNC’s server.
    • The media continued to slavishly report that the Russian government remotely executed the data transfer.
  • July 10, 2016: DNC Staffer Seth Rich is murdered at 4 AM on a Washington DC street. Nothing was stolen.
    • Donna Brazile writes that the murder so unnerved her that she began closing the blinds in her office out of fear.
  • July 22, 2016: Wikileaks begins publishing truly damaging DNC documents, as opposed to the bland Guccifer 2.0 releases which emphasized anti-Trump research and decade-old DNC donor lists.
  • July 24, 2016: DNC Chair Wasserman Schultz resigns.
  • August 9, 2016: Wikileaks offers a $20,000 reward for information on the Seth Rich murder. This is $20,000 more than the DNC offered.

Throughout the summer and early fall of 2016, Steele shopped the dossier around to various media outlets, including the New York Times, the Washington Post, CNN, Yahoo News and The New Yorker. He did so at the urging of Fusion GPS.

The media made a few veiled references to allegations in the dossier, but balked at publishing the whole stinking script because it was clearly a festering cesspool of demented bullcrap.

What’s a conniving, lie-peddling former British spy to do?

The media’s reluctance to attach itself to Steele’s handiwork was not a problem. Between Guccifer, Crowdstrike and every lying Democrat on Capitol Hill, the press already had enough bogus material to advance the Russia Hack fantasy.

Remember, the aim of the Steele Dossier was to provide a basis for the FBI to investigate Trump. Accordingly, Steele pitched the dossier to Obama administration intelligence officials and the reliably gullible “maverick” GOP Senator John McCain, who obligingly hand-delivered a copy to the FBI.

The FBI treated the obviously fraudulent allegations the way it treated the other million fraudulent allegations it receives.

Actually, it didn’t.

It opened up a full-blown surveillance operation against the Trump campaign, and made sure to brief blowhard Democrat senators like Harry Reid about it. Reid played his part by making public accusations that the FBI possessed “explosive” information about the DNC Trump Russia Collusion Drama.

Now the Times, the Post and CNN could report on an FBI investigation without attaching themselves personally to the source of the putrid script.

The Plot Sickens

An unexpected event causes a rewrite of the original script

When the crying began after Trump’s unforeseen victory, the DNC, Obama’s crooked intelligence chiefs and their media lackeys shifted the focus from preventing Trump’s election to delegitimizing the incoming administration.

Armed with warrants procured with scurrilous claims from the Steele Dossier, Obama’s lame duck administration scrutinized every movement of persons associated with Trump.

On January 3, 2017, AG Loretta Lynch authorized the NSA to disseminate raw intelligence data to all other intelligence agencies before “masking”, or concealing the names of American citizens incidentally tracked in a surveillance. The New York Times reported that the new rule facilitated the furious pace of the dissemination of Trump-related information in Obama’s final weeks in office.

On January 6, 2017, the FBI briefed President-elect Trump about the allegations in the Steele Dossier. The briefing immediately leaked to the press. Mission accomplished! By January 10, Buzzfeed, CNN and the rest of the Democrat media aired wall-to-wall coverage of the subject of the briefing.

The leak was the first of two leaks which Comey and associates used to achieve a desired result. In May 2017, Comey leaked a memo he wrote about a meeting with Trump as a prod to spur the appointment of a special prosecutor in the Russian collusion case. That worked, too.

The only possible conclusion

The DNC wrote the Trump Russia Collusion script to deflect from the damage that the imminent release of their internal communications was sure to inflict. When the narrative failed to prevent Trump from gaining the presidency, they accelerated the fiction in a deranged attempt to nullify the election.

The only possible solution

Stop voting for Democrats.

DNC Hack Is Fake News

by

Russia Hack theory ignores evidence of internal leak

Former DNC Chair Donna Brazile claims that Debbie Wasserman Schultz hid her knowledge of the alleged DNC hack for over a month before alerting other party officials. If this doesn’t put the lie to the theory that Russia gave the e-mails to Wikileaks, then nothing will.

In April 2016, the FBI alerted Wasserman Schultz that the DNC servers had been breached. Curiously, the DNC Chair declined the FBI’s “offer” to investigate the matter. (Since when does the FBI “offer” to help investigate a matter of national security?)

Wasserman Schultz knew that the leaker resided in her own organization. Chances are, Comey’s FBI did, too.

Jailed Wasserman Shultz IT Aide Awan Had Access To DNC Server

Debbie Wasserman Schultz ((D-FL) and 80 other House Democrats employed corrupt Pakastani native Imran Awan as their IT specialist. This is because hiring an honest American adds nothing to the progressives’ rich multicultural tapestry.

At the time of the DNC hack, Awan had access to the DNC server, courtesy of Wasserman Schultz. Circa News reported in September that Awan uploaded massive amounts of data – terabits – from the DNC server to his private Dropbox account. He is under investigation for allegations of selling information to foreign governments.

On February 2, 2017, the FBI and the Capitol Police launched an investigation of Awan relating to cyber crimes. Most Democrats then released Awan from IT duties, but Schultz kept him on until July 26 – the day after the FBI arrested him for bank fraud and 3 other charges. The Capitol Police have taken possession of several of Awan’s computers. In May 2017, Schultz threatened a Capitol Police Chief with “consequences” unless he returned the equipment.

Schultz’s loyalty to Awan seems baffling, considering his mind-numbing record. In addition to illicitly uploading terabits of DNC files, he illegally accessed congressional servers 5,400 times; he manipulated the terms of a $50,000 life insurance policy meant for his stepmother, who states he illegally confines and threatens her; he defaulted on a $100,000 “loan” from an Iranian fugitive tied to terror organization Hezbollah; he has two wives, one of whom told police he keeps her in a house in Virginia as a slave; he has made millions working for Democrat staffers, and wired $293,000 to Pakistan the week of his arrest. Oh, and he’s in the country as a winner in Chuck Schumer’s glorious Diversity Lottery immigration scam!

Wasserman Schultz even trotted out the “Islamophobia” accusation against this miscreant’s detractors. She really really really really really doesn’t want you to know about her IT cyber-fraudster. She wants you to know about “Russia.”

Investigation proves July 2016 DNC hack was an inside job

A group of 30 former top security experts from the NSA, the FBI, the CIA, and other agencies, formed a group called Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity (VIPS). They examined the evidence in this case and concluded that the July 2016 DNC hack originated on-site, perpetrated by someone with physical access to DNC servers. Democrat officials continue to blame this and previous breaches on Russia, without citing any factual evidence. The Nation quoted the VIPS report in its analysis:

  • There was no hack of the Democratic National Committee’s system on July 5 last year—not by the Russians, not by anyone else. Hard science now demonstrates it was a leak—a download executed locally with a memory key or a similarly portable data-storage device. In short, it was an inside job by someone with access to the DNC’s system. This casts serious doubt on the initial “hack,” as alleged, that led to the very consequential publication of a large store of documents on WikiLeaks last summer.
  • Forensic investigations of documents made public two weeks prior to the July 5 leak by the person or entity known as Guccifer 2.0 show that they were fraudulent: Before Guccifer posted them they were adulterated by cutting and pasting them into a blank template that had Russian as its default language. Guccifer took responsibility on June 15 for an intrusion the DNC reported on June 14 and professed to be a WikiLeaks source—claims essential to the official narrative implicating Russia in what was soon cast as an extensive hacking operation. To put the point simply, forensic science now devastates this narrative.

VIPS based its conclusions on physical science. The metadata of the leaked material, examined by an intelligence source working with VIPS, demonstrates that the data transfer could not possibly have taken place over the internet. In the transfer, 1,976 megabytes were downloaded from the DNC server in 87 seconds. This transfer rate, 22.7 megabytes per second, lies beyond the capability of current internet technologies. A simple thumb drive, however, achieves precisely this rate.

The theory that Russian intelligence executed this hack collapses under the weight of scientific evidence.

Wikileaks founder Julian Assange hints about leaker’s identity

Five days after the July 5 data breach, DNC Director of Voter Expansion Seth Rich was murdered after midnight on the street in his Washington, DC neighborhood. Shot several times, the perpetrator stole none of the items of value found on his person, including a wallet, watch and jewelry.

Wikileaks released its batch of DNC e-mails on July 22, 2016. On August 9, Julian Assange posted a $20,000 reward for information leading to the murderer of Seth Rich. Assange cryptically stated. “I’m suggesting our sources take risks.” Investigators do not know if Seth Rich was connected with the leaks in any way.

Debbie Wasserman Schultz rejected the FBI’s assistance in finding the DNC hacker because she knew the leaks were internal. The threat to national security didn’t move the FBI to demand access to the computers in question. The Russia Hack theory is a baseless fabrication of the Democrat Party, the media, and their allies in Obama’s government.
