- Unsubstantiated stories have been planted
throughout the presstitute media by anonymous CIA
officials that Donald Trump’s electoral victory was the
result of Russian intervention. This absurd claim has
now been elevated to the even more absurd claim that
Putin himself oversaw and even conducted the
manipulation of the US presidential election.
No evidence has
been provided for these amazing claims. The presstitutes
are reporting unsubstantiated wild accusations that
portend both a constitutional crisis in the US and a
crisis with Russia. We know that the presstitutes lie.
The presstitutes lied when they reported contrary to the
weapons inspectors in Iraq that Saddam Hussein had
weapons of mass destruction. They lied about fake
evidence of yellowcake and alumninum tubes. They lied
about Saddam Hussein’s al-Qaeda connections. They lied
about Iranian nukes despite the unanimous report of all
US intelligence agencies that Iran had abandoned
interest in nuclear weapons years ago. The presstitutes
lied about Assad using chemical weapons against the
Syrian people. They lied about Gadaffi. They lied about
Russian invasion of Ukraine. They lied about the cause
of the Russian/Georgian conflict. They lied about the
Sochi Olympics. Now the presstitutes are claiming that
Russian interference determined the outcome of the US
presidential election and the Brexit vote.
As a result of
the prestitutes’ lies, millions of peoples have been
killed and dislocated. This blood is all on the heads of
the American media. So we know for a proven fact that
the US media has no integrity and no conscience.
Now the
presstitutes have surpassed their previous level of
criminality. They are part and parcel of formenting a
coup against the president-elect and throwing the
country into a crisis of unknown proportion.
Tomorrow the
Electoral College meets to cast the ballots for
president. There is a well organized effort to disrupt
this normally routine procedure. Based on CIA lies
spread over the country by the presstitutes, 62 electors
have requested a CIA briefing prior to the vote on
Russian interference in the election. As there is no
formal CIA report and no evidence in support of the
allegations, the briefing would consist of the
allegations.
A Harvard Law
School professor, Lawrence Lessig, involved in the
Stop-Trump movement, has promised free legal defence of
electors who break with precedent and cast their votes
differently from the majority vote of their states.
If the effort
tomorrow fails, President Obama has put in motion a
second shot at blocking Trump’s inauguration with his
order to the CIA to produce a report on Russian election
meddling prior to January 20. This report could be used
to delay the inauguration or to convey to the Amerian
public and peoples abroad so many doubts that Trump’s
effectiveness as a leader would be undermined.
And of course,
the constant assaults on Trump can result in his
assassination by a “lone nut” patriot incensed over
having in office a president declared by the New York
Times to be a Putin stooge and useful idiot for the
Russians. This is the newspaper of record’s
characterization of the president chosen by the American
people.
Professor
Michel Chossudovsky of Global Research
adds another dimension to the struggle
—a fight
between rival oligarchic interests. Trump and his
announced Secretary of State want the business deals
that result from normal relations with Russia. The
military/security oligarchs want the immense budgets and
power that comes from positioning Russia as a dire
threat. Even if Trump survives the CIA’s challenge to
his election, his cabinet appointees will have to
survive confirmation fights and, if they do, ongoing
challenges to their efforts to change policies from
policies that favor oligarchs enriched by war to
policies that favor oligarchs enriched by peace.
In other words,
whatever the outcome tomorrow and January 20th, the
fight is ongoing.
Only a
Counter-Coup Can Save American Democracy
By Paul

- The CIA has long engineered coups in other countries.
Now we are approaching at breakneck speed a CIA coup in
the USA.
When the
presstitute media first published unverifired, unsourced
leaks attributed to unnamed CIA officials, both the FBI
and the Director of Homeland Security said that they did
not embrace the accusation that Trump’s election was a
result of Russian interference in the US presidential
election.
Now suddenly we
have a report from the Washington Post, a rag whose
integrity is in doubt and a mainstay of anti-Trump
propaganda suspected of being a CIA asset, that the FBI
and Homeland Security are in agreement with the
anonymous leaks to the presstitutes:
“FBI Director
James B. Comey and Director of National Intelligence
James R. Clapper Jr. are in agreement with a CIA
assessment that Russia intervened in the 2016 election
in part to help Donald Trump win the White House,
officials disclosed Friday, as President Obama issued a
public warning to Moscow that it could face retaliation.
New revelations about Comey’s position could put to rest
suggestions by some lawmakers that the CIA and the FBI
weren’t on the same page on Russian President Vladimir
Putin’s intentions.”
Note, that this
claim comes from the CIA. It has not been verified at
this time of writing by the FBI and Homeland Security.
Indeed, please note that the Washington Post, which is
hyping this story of intelligence agency consensus,
reports:
“The CIA and
the FBI declined to comment on Brennan’s message or on
the classified intelligence assessment that CIA
officials shared with members of the Senate Intelligence
Committee earlier this month, setting off a political
firestorm.” In other words, the CIA might be putting
words in the mouths of the other intelligence officials.
Note also that
Hillary says that Putin interfered against her because
he has a grudge against her for her interference in his
reelection by fomenting protests against him with the
Western-financed Russian NGOs. If what Hillary claims is
correct, then any Russian interference, for which proof
remains absent, was directed against Hillary in order to
settle a score and has nothing to do with any Russian
influence over Trump or 200 Internet sites as falsely
and maliciously reported by the Washington Post.
All the CIA
officials making claims of Russian interference,
according to the Washington Post, continue to speak “on
the condition of anonymity.”
So we have a
coup against the president-elect based solely on
unverified, unsourced, anonymous assertions made by the
public knows not who.
Rep. Davin
Nunes, the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee,
which has oversight over the CIA, has said that neither
he nor the committee have seen any evidence from the CIA
in support of the claims he reads in the media. He has
asked the agency to brief the Intelligence Committee on
the alleged evidence but has had no response.
According to
the Washington Post, “Nunes said: ‘We have not received
any information from Intelligence Community (IC)
agencies indicating that they have developed new
assessments on this issue. I am alarmed that supposedly
new information continues to leak to the media but has
not been provided to Congress.’”
Rep. Nunes
statement makes it completely clear that the CIA is
using the presstitute media to launch a coup against
president-elect Trump.
CIA director
John Brennan’s audacity suggests that he expects the
coup to succeed. Otherwise, he is dead meat along with
Bezos, The Washington Post and the rest of the
presstitute media.
Trump’s critics
on the left and right and among the liberals and
progressives have stupidly played into the CIA’s hands.
I tried to warn them not to judge Trump by the past
associations of his appointees as no change was possible
without strong knowledgeable appointees. Those who
romanticize Bernie Sanders are out to lunch. A person as
weak as Sanders proved to be, completely collapsing in
the face of his stolen presidential nomination by
Hillary, could not possibly have prevailed over the
powerful oligarchic groups that rule America. When we
finally get a president-elect strong enough to bring
change from the top down, the
leftwing-liberal-progressive elements join the CIA in
denouncing him!
If the generals
Trump has announced as his appointees have been too
marginalized within the military by the neoconservatives
to be able to provide US military protection against the
CIA’s coup against the president-elect, do not expect
Donald Trump to be inaugurated as President of the
United States on January 20.
We are at the
point that only a countercoup against the CIA and the
Hillary forces can save American democracy.
High treason is
alive and well in the United States, and it is operating
against American democracy and president-elect Trump.
Electors under siege:
Members of the Electoral College have been inundated by
harassing phone calls and hate mail. Many report
receiving death threats.
It is unacceptable to slander, smear or engage in personal attacks on authors of articles posted on ICH.
