"RUSSIA DID IT" IS A HOAX

"RUSSIA DID IT" ICA REPORT IS POLITICIZED HOAX

OBAMA UNDERMINED NEW PRESIDENT AND NATION

In the approximately ten weeks between the election of 2016 and the inauguration of President Trump, former President Obama and his team had ample time to set trip-wires and conduct the skulduggery to undermine the new administration and set the stage for the phony "Russia Did It" story that is presently plaguing, and weakening our nation.  

During the interregnum between November 8 and January 21 our former "scholar President" decided that the 2016 election was not to his liking and the manifest  will of the 63 million people who voted for Mr. Trump were of no account.   Apparently, Mr. Obama felt his personal knowledge of what was best for America took precedence over the tens of millions who voted to seat Mr. Trump in the Oval Office.   Their collective will was nothing.  What chutzpah!  What hubris! What a denial of what our Constitution guarantees and what we as Americans believe, that the power to govern comes from the will of the people--not from past leaders, the entrenched establishment, bureaucrats, and Washington elites.  Mr. Obama's intention to undermine the will of the people reveals he has forgotten the first lesson of civics: that the people are the source of political power.

What did he do?  It is apparent now that immediately after the election Obama set a number of trip wires, stumbling blocks, and staged embarrassments rigged to undermine and delegitimize  the incoming--novice politician, and  popularly elected President.   The fact that Trump was strenuously opposed by Obama and his team, the "deep state", the intelligence community, the political establishment,  both Democrat and Republican parties, and the vast Washington bureaucracy all conspired to ease Obama's sinister efforts.   All these forces were poised to either turn thi
s new leader from his promises to the people and the popular course of action he campaigned on
--- or destroy him.   Obama and his administration were also in the perfect position to initiate the pitfalls for the new team. Though they lost the election, for more than two long months they continued to hold on to all the levers of power.  They used the power of the state's intelligence gathering and spying for political purposes,  becoming the chief conspirators in the effort to undermine the new administration.  What their sinister efforts have wrought in these first three months of the new administration are acts which go well beyond mere partisanship....they border on--- I hesitate to say it---treason.

Recently, in a May 12, 2017 opinion piece for Fox News, Fred Fleitz, of the Center For Security Analysis (a think tank for security concerns) penned a piece entitled:  "More indications Intel assessment of Russian Interference was rigged".  In this article Fleitz reprises  one of the initial acts which set the stage for the "Russia Did It' story.  This has become a persistent, mind-numbing mantra of the left.    So what did Obama do?

On January 6, 2017 not quite a month after the election, at the urging of President Obama and his openly anti-Trump CIA chief, John Brennan, the US "Intelligence Community" issued  an  Intelligence Community Assessment  (ICA) that found that "Russia deliberately interfered in the
 2016 election to the benefit of the Trump campaign"..  The report hit the news media like a ton of bricks and has been accepted as if it was a  "natural law" (like the laws of gravity).  The media have bludgeoned the Trump Administration with it over and over again. The most recent "scandal" in which Trump purportedly revealed  "top secrets" to the Russian foreign minister at a meeting in the Oval Office is only another example of this same noxious paradigm of intelligence politicization.

However  on closer examination this  ICA with the purported legitimacy of natural law and the backing of "17" of the nation's security institutions has been revealed to be nothing but A rigged affair.  A political document promoted by the Obama crowd to undermine the incoming administration.  Not natural law at all but a poorly supported politicized hypotheses, cobbled together by a small group of Obama stalwarts and Trump-haters hand-picked from among a small selected sampling of the nation's security institutions.  It has the same legitimacy as any  other bit of "false news" stories coming from the biased media bureaus of the far left.

Fred Flitz writes in the above opinion piece, that the May 8, 2017 testimony of James Clapper, Obama's  partisan,  politicized  Director of National  Intelligence, who perjured himself in front of Congress, confirmed that the "ICA reflected the views of only three of the nation's security agencies, FBI, NSA and CIA. All three of which were headed at the time by Obama appointees who were known Trump haters. John Brennan of CIA made his negative opinion of Trump clear both before and after the election on many occasions.  The participants who were tasked with making the assessment were hand picked by the heads of the three agencies. These "experts" were under the direction of the Office of the Director of National Intelligence---James Clapper himself.  The report according to Clapper's  own testimony  was "vetted and approved by me".  The Director of the FBI  at the time, Comey, stated in his Senate testimony that the ICA was the result of "logic" not evidence.  Suggesting that this ICA  was a subjective conclusion not based on "evidence" but on direction from the Obama administration.  Finally in an unusual outcome for such a report, there were no dissenting views.  Fleitz remarks that the whole process "stinks of "politicization" .


The "Russia Did It" story is a hoax and a danger to the nation's well being.
