Deep State Targets Tesla

Elon Musk: Serial Entrepreneur, and Threat to the Deep State
Just as Nicholas Tesla was targeted and destroyed
 by the Deep State when he came up with ideas and 
inventions which would improve the lives of humanity 
-- and provide free electricity and communications, 
so too is Elon Musk now being targeted since he
abhors wasteful and overly expensive inefficiencies.  
In this story line, follow the money, but recognize 
Elon Musk can, and will, dislodge the Deep State.

Business Insider, ByLine: Matthew DeBord

Elon Musk settled with the Securities and Exchange Commission [SEC] on charges filed over his abandoned attempt to take Tesla private. Musk will have to step down as the chairman of Tesla, and will be barred from that position for three years. He will remain Tesla’s CEO. The SEC charged Tesla with “failing to have required disclosure controls and procedures relating to Musk’s tweets.”  

We are curious what role Melissa Hodgman, Director of the SEC's International Divisionplayed in this bizarre attack; you might remember she is married to Peter Strzok, the corrupt, and now former Director of the FBI's Counter-Intelligence Division; her role has been to block any investigations into Hillary's money laundering operation in the Clinton Foundation.  
[Other than working with his girlfriend to undermine Trump, Strzok's notable success was in destroying the FBI's long term Operation Ghost Stories which identified and arrested a Russian SVR Sleeper Agent program by allowing the escape/release of the eleven spies arrested.]

Musk and the company will pay separate $20 million fines that will “be distributed to harmed investors under a court-approved process.   Tesla is being forced to appoint two new independent directors to its board. The company must also hire a lawyer to monitor Musk’s communications, including his tweets.

Musk's crime?

He tweeted that he was "... considering taking the company private."
He didn't, but that's irrelevant as far as the corrupt SEC is concerned.



Back in 2010, Musk's initial public offering of the Tesla stock was $17 in 2010; today, it sells for $300, a modest increase that made its investors millionaires.


[We're curious as to how investors were harmed by Tesla's chronic speculation, captured this time in an eight word tweet]

Musk is a perceived enemy of the Deep State, which derives its wealth primarily from the Transportation industry, i.e., Detroit's internal combustion industry, the oil industry, the financial industry, and the Defense and Space industry.

Musk has challenged each of the industries.
Tesla Semi; non-diesel

His electric vehicles have spawned dozens of US and international electric vehicle competitors; the only barrier seemed to be the limitations of 2,000 year old battery technology, so he created a company to make 21st Century batteries for electric vehicles, to include the Tesla Semi trucks  which could travel long distances without expensive diesel fuel costs
[currently about $150 Billion per year, which could cut into Warren Buffet's $34 Billion petroleum movement system of railroads].


The financial industry is leery of Musk because he can manufacture affordable vehicles and finance their sales through his own company at reasonable interest rates.  As opposed to Detroit's products which languish on car lots, Tesla vehicles are sold on waiting lists because demand is so great.

Automobile dealerships, a mainstay of the financial industry selling car loans of $30,000 to $150,000 at high interest rates, will gradually disappear with the dominance of electric vehicles since the need for mechanical maintenance is eliminated with electric motors which need only simple lubricants; no more expensive maintenance and overhauls of automobile drive trains consisting of thousands of moving parts [there are about 13,000 moving parts in the drive train of the average gasoline propelled car today; an electric propelled automobile has a motor with nine moving parts; do the math].  Electric vehicles will still need financing, but their mechanical and physical life spans are indefinite as the structures are now carbon-based and the motors simply don't wear out.

GM's EV-s, all in working order, were destroyed

GM figured this out in 1995 after they had created the EV-1 and EV-2, wildly popular leased vehicles - which needed no maintenance.

So, GM's Chairman, Rick Wagoner, revoked the leases, confiscated all the vehicles, and destroyed them all, not even giving one to the Smithsonian for historical purposes.

Musk's exceptional drive has produced a number of extraordinary ventures, most of which have made him, and his investors, quite wealthy.

His first venture was a software company called Zip2, which provided News Media resources with research capabilities. He sold out to Compaq Computer for $307 Million -- his share was $22 Million.

His next venture was X.com, an on-line bank which eventually became PayPal, which blind-sided the banking industry as it made transactions electronic and simple; he eventually sold the company for $250 Million.

Further down the road, he studied "rocket science" in his spare time and created SpaceX on the basis that rockets were unnecessarily overpriced.  His ventures included buying Russian rockets, developing a re-usable rocket; his reusable rockets were 100 time cheaper than those purchased under existing government contracts. He then secured a NASA contract for  $1.6 Billion to resupply the Space Station [after the Space Shuttle program was ended by Obama in 2011].  This program evolved into the BFR [Big Falcon (Fucking) Rocket] program which has evolved into the Interplanetary Space Flight program with reusable rockets.

This venture caused him a great deal of opposition since the Deep State is unwilling to give up control of the Space Industry, funded by billion dollar NASA contracts, and promoted by Trump's Space Force.

On a number of early launches, Musk's rockets inexplicably exploded on the pad or shortly after lift-off, as we would later learn via sabotage, or via snipers who could puncture a fuel tank from a mile away.  Musk and Trump solved this problem by launching from a highly restricted Military base, entry to which was only for fully identified, by-name personnel.

The Deep State has been squeezed out, for now, but will likely launch propaganda campaigns to denigrate Musk's efforts -- which promise to deliver astronauts to Mars, and the Moon in the immediate future.

Having successfully launched his Interplanetary program, Musk turned his attention again to his electric vehicles, addressing the limitations of battery life; so he built the GigaFactory, a lithium-ion battery factory in Nevada to power his vehicles and homes with solar-energy Powerwalls [a stationary home/business energy storage unit.

These ventures would undercut the battery companies, which have produced batteries which  are archaic [3,000 years old in design], expensive, and have a life span of about five years.


Cancer Transmission Systems?
They would also undercut the electric utility companies by providing consumers with an alternative to buying ever-more expensive electricity by government-protected monopolistic utilities which produce electricity and deliver it to consumers in the least efficient and highly vulnerable manner.

There is reportedly a high correlation between exposure to the Electrical Magnetic Fields [EMF] high tension power lines and cancer.  Electric utilizes have spent considerable money "debunking" these theories, but, it seems there is now pretty much of an inexplicable epidemic of cancer.

There's a considerable amount of money to be lost if Musk succeeds in creating electricity that is "off-the-grid", and naturally, the Deep State is reluctant to all the disruption of the "status quo". Expect a massive propaganda campaign to malign Musk's program.

But, lest you think Musk was slacking off, he came up with still another innovation; i.e., the Hyperloop passenger/freight train which replaces railroad trains with a high speed [700 mph], efficient, and comparatively inexpensive process.

Hyperloop Concept
The Hyperloop is a sealed tube, or system of tubes, through which a "pod" can travel without air resistance or friction -- at very high speeds.

The pods would be pressurized capsules which ride on "air bearings" driven by linear induction motors and axial compressors.

All that sounds complicated, but, think in terms of the vacuum tube system many banks still use in drive-through lanes to deliver your cash from the teller in the window.  Sixty years ago, that was the preferred system for office complexes and department stores.

This is a great idea which would provide a viable alternative to our crowded, expensive, uncomfortable, and inefficient airways   which are highly vulnerable.  Once again though, the Deep State is highly resistant to innovative technology which could slaughter their cash cows.  Railroads, though massively inefficient and slow, are basically passenger-unfriendly and highly profitable freight carriers.  Warren Buffett would be resistant, although rail would be the preferred carrier of dangerous loads of oil, coal, and explosives.

Nonetheless, opponents have already produced "studies" which call this technology impractical and vulnerable to disruption from power outages and "terror attacks".

Some may remember how the high-speed MagLev trains conceived in the 1980s were derailed in the US by Deep State nay-sayers to protect the airlines and rail monopolies -- but those constructed in foreign countries work just fine, until mysterious accidents caused them to shut down.

Musk's Tunnel Boring Machine
The question arose on how the HyperLoop would move through non-existent paths.

Naturally, Musk had an answer - his Boring Machine Company, which produces machines capable of boring tunnels through any material [e.g., rock]  at 50-60 feet per day, with a diameter up to nearly 60 feet.

Currently, Musk has a variety of tentative contracts for boring his tunnels, into which he can insert his Hyperloop trains; since these might cause the disruption and obsolescence of existing transportation systems, we can guarantee a great deal of political opposition to arise from Deep State functionaries.

Stay tuned for more adventures of Elon Musk, the man from the future.

POSTSCRIPT:

Since we wrote this blog post last month, we've been traveling abroad  and have visited museums of science and technology which broadened our awareness of potential implementation of Musk technology, to include coordinating new, virtually indestructible carbon fibre products which could be used in Musk's space programs.

Notably, on our return, we learned that two of NASA's spacecraft "... ran out of hydrazine fuel!" - limiting their maneuverability, thus preventing them from gathering further information in our Solar System, even though their solar batteries were/are still functional.  The "single point of failure" on each system was the "reaction wheels" which adjusted the camera/telescope visual field.

1)  The Spacecraft DAWN, launched in 2007, probed the Asteroid Belt between Mars and Jupiter, after which it continued on to circle and gather information on the protoplanets Ceres and Vesta.  Currently, DAWN remains in an uncontrolled orbit, 22 miles above, and circling Ceres, completely dysfunctional.

2)  The Kepler orbiting telescope, launched in 2009, had run out of hydrazine fuel two days earlier, eliminating its ability to orient and gather space data.  The official explanation for its failure however, was eroding reaction wheels.

3)  The Hubble orbiting telescope. launched in 1990, remains in orbit and fully functional, 14 years after George W Bush attempted to force it into low orbit and self-destruct; his rationale was that the more sophisticated Webb telescope would quickly replace it.  The Webb telescope has been delayed multiple times and has recently been delayed again until 2021, somewhat beyond its original projection.  Maintenance and servicing of the Hubble had been conducted by astronauts transported by the Space Shuttle program, which President Obama terminated in 2011, leaving no replacement for the Shuttle, and no US transport to the Space Station or any other destination.


We're not sure what NASA has been doing, or why its emphasis seems to be on degrading our space exploration program.  Certainly, the demise of the DAWN and Keppler spacecraft due to fuel issues had to have been foreseen.  Had not the scientific community risen up in rebellion against Bush's decision to destroy the Hubble telescope, the US would have little capability to monitor issues beyond our stratosphere -- while Russia, China, and India launch their space vehicles to the Moon and beyond.  We have to wonder about this retreat from competition from our potential adversaries - an apparent goal of both Bush and Obama.

So, what does all this have to do with Elon Musk?

Well, Musk has repeatedly demonstrated his innovative spirit in creating solutions to bewildering challenges.  His rocketry has proven reliable and inexpensive.  One of his Tesla vehicles is now hurtling through space toward Mars, simply because Musk thought it would demonstrate he could accomplish just about anything space related.

We suspect he could probably launch a refueling vehicle and apparatus to salvage both DAWN and Keppler -- using robotic processes.  He could likely launch a space vehicle to land astronauts on the Moon were he so inclined.

We trust Mr Trump has Musk in mind for some key role in his Space Force -- which might be a suitable replacement for NASA.

IRS and Congressional Insider Trading?


Testimony on Congressman Collins Insider Trading



This blog post is an extract from a NY Post story by John Crudele.  
We've made a few edits to keep it short, but the basics are all included.  
We highly recommend you read the entire story at the link below.  
Crudele advises he was able to vet the Whistle-blower, 
and is satisfied the story is accurate.


For full story, click here
New York Post,  John Crudele [15AUG2018] 

Ever wonder how a Congressman or Senator [or IRS official]
who earns less than $200,000 per year, 
can have an annual income of several million dollars, 
and retire into a lifetime of extraordinary wealth?

John Crudele explains below:

The IRS reportedly tipped off members of Congress to corporate takeovers and other pending actions so the elected officials could profit from Insider Trading.  Allegedly, higher-level employees of the IRS also used that information to enrich themselves.

[Congressman Christopher Collins testified that an indicted Congressman talked others into buying a pharmaceutical stock and pushed legislation to help it; his son's girlfriend was just nailed on Insider Trading charges.]

Until a few years ago Members of Congress were not barred from trading stock based on information they got while performing their public duties. However, following scandalous headlines in 2012
[you remember, when the News Media was credible], the practice was officially banned.

Mrs Peter Strzok -
Deputy Director -  SEC Enforcement
Interestingly, a page left unturned in this scandal is the one in which the wife of Peter Strzok [Melissa Hodgman] is the Deputy Director of the Securities & Exchange Commission Enforcement Division.

One might guess that in addition to blocking investigations into Hillary Clinton's money laundering schemes, Melissa might also have blocked inquiries into Congressional Insider Trading in exchange for Congress supporting Strzok's illegal activities and ignoring the criminal activities of senior officials at the DOJ and FBI.

It was assumed that Members of Congress were just profiting from what they happened to learn while working on their Committees — e.g., perhaps a drug about to be turned down by the FDA,  or that a company was exploring to see how regulators would feel about a merger.

However, what the Whistleblower alleges goes well beyond that.
[ The Chris Collins story provides further details on Congressional Insider trading ]

Did the Whistleblower report his findings to "authorities"?
He did, but was told to "get lost".  Apparently Congress was making too much personal profit to have some reported blow their illegal enterprises.

[Ever wonder why no criminal charges were brought against Lois Lerner?]

Chief IRS Scoundrel
Unprosecuted Sacrificial Lamb
According to the the Whistleblower, the IRS made their own illegal operation "legal".
“In 2003-05 an official Memo was created within the IRS  noting who was permitted to participate in ‘insider trading’. The memo noted that all IRS employees in the executive branch and those one step below (territory managers, etc.) were permitted to participate. I was below that rank by one step, i.e., a large-case manager at the IRS.  However, as my evaluation showed, I was expected to inform my manager of any and all mergers.” 

In fact, the Whistleblower says he was fired for not doing so and was later the subject of retaliation. That was a lot of years ago. And the only people who could properly look into something like this — and hopefully determine that it couldn’t possibly be true — would be in the IRS Inspector General’s  [TIG] Office of the IRS. That’s who is supposed to investigate allegations of wrongdoing.

So, Crudele called the IRS Inspector General’s media contact, planning to give them the information, and perhaps the IG could convince the Whistleblower to come forward or obtain more details in exchange for Crudele's getting an exclusive on the story if the allegations were verified.

Crudele's exchange with the IG’s spokeswoman was unexpected:.

IG Spokeswoman:  “Concerning..?”

Crudele: "A tip from a reader of mine about IRS wrongdoing

IG Spokeswoman: We get those on a regular basis; tell the tipster to contact the IRS Hotline.

Crudele:  "The tipster doesn't wish to do that"

IG Spokeswoman:   “All complaints are taken very seriously.” 

Crudele:  “Is there an insider trading exemption for officials in the IRS?” 

IG Spokeswoman: [Crudele advised] she said there wasn’t such an exemption and sent him a brochure.
“Once again, thank you for contacting us. Let me know if we can help further”

Crudele:  “I’m amazed at the lack of cooperation I am getting from you” commented, criticizing her laziness before finishing with “have a nice weekend".

IG Spokeswoman: “On background, we sorry you feel that way. We are not lazy…just careful”

Mergers & Acquisitions
Insider Information = Big Bucks
Crudele continued the Whistle-blower's story [details were excluded to protect his identity]:

“So then one day I was informed of a merger between (two big companies), I was the Case Manager on that audit; I refused to inform my manager.  Well, that was a sad day for my career.  He (the manager) first produced a memo and then suspended me for failing to inform him of the merger so he could tell his supervisor.  It seemed that the supervisor had planned to pay off his home mortgage with the merger information to the tune of $1 million plus.” 

"There’s something you need to understand. The IRS places its workers permanently inside many companies where they continually receive privileged information while doing audits. So there’s plenty of money-making tips to go around.  In addition my supervisor had planned on informing his manager who then could contact members of Congress so they could invest and profit from this information,.  It was a way of securing a comfortable job on one of the boards like the Smithsonian once they retired.”

Crudele advises: 
Consider how many individuals could have had access to this information and profited while the average American is told that it is “illegal.” The Whistleblower says he was pushed out of the IRS in 2004 and charges — trumped-up ones, he says — were brought against him. But he wouldn’t be surprised if this insider trading continued.

According to the Whistle-blower:
“Unfortunately I doubt that this has stopped. One cannot allow this to take place and then suddenly end it.  These individuals had planned and budgeted for these events to fund their lifestyle. That type of income generator just does not end.  It’s always hard to take away perks from employees. Just try stopping the free coffee at your office."

On a final note, which you may find of interest, my previous manager had assigned another manager to [a highly prized international] office for two years because she gave him numerous inside information tips."

Assuming Mr Crudele's story of IRS corruption alarms you, you will appreciate his parallel tale of Congressional Insider Trading based on confidential information presented in Committee Hearings.

Mr Trump's "Draining of the Swamp" comes none too soon, and it will create some soon-to-be impoverished Congressfolk who have lived large off their corrupt practices -- but will likely face prosecution and substantial legal bills this Fall.




----

Editorial Note:

We concur with Mr Crudele's story since we are somewhat aware that the IRS has not been pure as the driven snow; so, his tale of corruption comes as no surprise.   

We are also gratified for confirmation on just how corrupt our bureaucrats, and politicians [of both Parties] are, and how they've gotten wealthy through their corruption; it might also explain why we so much inaction on their part in pursuing the corruption of government bureaucrats and law enforcement officials.

During our post-IC career, one contractor told much the same story based on his consulting time with the IRS.  Among his lurid tales were IRS rooms full of tax returns which employees dutifully were flushing down toilets; and, then there was a unique scam the IRS operated in which they sent out a computerized letter advising taxpayers in the upper-six figure income range that they had underpaid by $800 to $1,800, correctly assuming that the victims would simply pay the extra rather than waste time reviewing their taxes or fighting the penalty. 
[We were one of those unsuspecting victims in 1997, and we paid the extra $800.]

We were also targeted by Lois Lerner's team, apparently purely out of spite since we have not been involved in a PAC, although we do admit to being a bit Conservative.  We fought back, threatening to bring the case public and to Congress during the Lerner hearings, and the IRS relented.

Finally, recognize that the IRS [and FBI] places their officers in US Embassies around the world, as part of the Country Team [Ambassador, CIA Station Chief, Defense, Political/Commercial, Economic, Agricultural Attache's] - each privy to sensitive Intelligence briefings on country and regional political and financial issues.  Officially, the IRS Advisor role is to ensure US citizens and companies operating abroad pay their taxes.  However, passing along sensitive Intelligence information to friends and supervisors is likely part of the abuse of the access the Whistleblower above has reported.

Conspiracy of Historical Proportions?


How deep did the Conspiracy Swamp Go?

Editorial Comment:

We have posted this House Resolution, with highlights and links to 
related stories, to educate those who are unable to follow this Byzantine
 plot line by Obama conspirators.  It is a highly convoluted scheme, 
acted out by some of the most corrupt persons in the history of they US 
-- who, coincidentally were attorneys who should face 
disbarment proceedings, and prison sentences.  


Most stunning was the fact that these attorneys [officers of the Court]
 held key positions in the Department of Justice 
or the Federal Bureau of Investigation 
-- previously the pinnacle of the 

US Justice system.

A series of Attorneys General committed the most egregious of crimes, 
beginning with Eric Holder's Fast&Furious debacle, 
and then Loretta Lynch's meeting with Bill Clinton on the tarmac, 
and later, [Acting AG] Sally Yates who, rather than expressing 
her concerns to President Trump regarding his Executive Order, 
publicly defied Trump and condemned his Executive Order 
-- which had been vetted by DOJ's Legal Counsel 
-- and so Trump fired her.  


The trail is now so convoluted that it is difficult to follow;
 we hope this post has made this coup plot a bit more clear.  
There is far more to this scheme than this definitive 
House Resolution, but, there is still more to come, 
and these revelations will hopefully lead to the 
arrest and prosecution of all the conspirators 
-- beginning with Hillary Clinton.







In commemoration of all those who have sacrificed their lives for 
the American way of freedom, and defiance of oppressive governments, 
we are posting House Resolution 907 which precisely documents the 
bulk of illegal and Treasonous actions committed by the Obama 
Administration during which he weaponized the US Intelligence 
Community against his political opponents, 
and against American Citizens

----------------------
We have highlighted key passages and added links 
to assist you in understanding the gravity of this resolution



House Resolution 907 appears in its entirety below:



115TH CONGRESS 2D SESSION H. RES. 907 

Expressing the sense of Congress that the Attorney General of the United States should appoint a Special Counsel to investigate misconduct at the Department of Justice and Federal Bureau of Investigation, including an investigation of abuse of the FISA warrant process, how and why the Hillary Clinton probe ended, and how and why the Donald TrumpRussia probe began.

IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES 
MAY 22, 2018 

Mr. ZELDIN (for himself, Mr. GOSAR, Mr. GAETZ, Mr. PERRY, Mr. DESANTIS, Mr. MOONEY of West Virginia, 
Mr. DESJARLAIS, Ms. TENNEY, Mr. MEADOWS, Mr. JODY B. HICE of Georgia, Mr. GOHMERT, Mr. ROTHFUS, 
Mr. JORDAN, Mr. BUDD, Mr. ROUZER, Mr. YOHO, Mr. BRAT, Mr. ROKITA, Mr. BIGGS, Mr. POE of Texas, 
Mr. WILLIAMS, Mr. DUNCAN of South Carolina, Mr. GIBBS, Mrs. BLACK, and Mr. ISSA) submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the Committee on the Judiciary


 RESOLUTION 
Expressing the sense of Congress that the 
Attorney General of the United States 
should appoint a Special Counsel to investigate misconduct at 
the Department of Justice and Federal Bureau of Investigation
including an investigation of abuse of the FISA Warrant process 
how and why the Hillary Clinton email probe ended
and how and why the Donald Trump-Russia probe began; 


Whereas 
There is an urgent need for the
appointment of a second Special Counsel 
in light of evidence that raises critical concerns about
decisions, activities, and inherent bias displayed at the highest levels of the 
Department of Justice (DOJ) and Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI)
 regarding FISA abuse,
how and why the HillaryClinton email probe ended
and 
how and why the Donald Trump-Russia probe began; 



Whereas 
the concerns of the American people are serious and the issues requiring an 
immediate, unbiased, independent, and thorough investigation are broad; 

Whereas 
misconduct during the 2016 presidential election by high-ranking individuals within the FBI and DOJ may have led to the premature conclusion of the FBI’s 2016 probe into then-presidential candidate and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton;


Mess with me and I'll Clinticide you!
                        Whereas
during her tenure as Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton violated Federal law, and Department of State rules, regulations, and protocol, by using a private email server in her Chappaqua, New York, home;

Whereas 
official communications were transmitted on an unsecured server and included emails that contained classified information when they were sent, in addition to additional emails which were retroactively deemed classified by the Department of State;

Whereas 
FBI Director James Comey acknowledged that 65 of these illicit emails were classified as ‘‘Secret’’ and 22 were classified as ‘‘Top Secret’’;

Whereas 
there is significant evidence that the use of this private server by Secretary Clinton was meant to avoid compliance with the Freedom of Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552) and done to obstruct justice by not having to turn over incriminating emails in the case of a subpoena;


         
                Whereas

various sensitive emails subject to grand jury and congressional subpoenas 
were destroyed on Secretary Clinton’s private server through the use of ‘‘BleachBit’’ software and the destruction of hardware before they could be obtained by investigators in March 2015;





Whereas 
in a September 2015 meeting between then-Attorney General Loretta Lynch and then-Director Comey, the Attorney General instructed Director Comey to refer to the Clinton email investigation as a ‘‘matter’’, thus watering down the severity of the investigation and aligning the FBI’s rhetoric with the messaging of the Clinton campaign;

Whereas 
Cheryl has Immunity? Time for a Clinticide?



Cheryl Mills, who served as Counselor and Chief of Staff to Hillary Clinton during her entire tenure as United States Secretary of State, was offered immunityfrom prosecution by the FBI during this investigation in exchange for access to her laptop that contained many of the questionable emails;






                                                                             Whereas 
I don't need no stinking witnesses!

according to transcripts obtained by the Senate Judiciary Committee, former Director Comey was prepared to exonerate Hillary Clinton as early as April or May of 2016 when he began to draft a statement announcing the end of his investigation, before up to 17 key witnesses, including former Secretary Clinton and several of her closest aides, were interviewed


Whereas

former Director Comey contradicted these transcripts when he stated during sworn testimony before the House Judiciary Committee on September 28, 2016, that he made the decision not to recommend criminal charges for Secretary Clinton ‘‘after’’ she was interviewed by the FBI on July 2, 2016;






                                                                         Whereas 
Director Comey, in the final draft of his statement, allowed FBI Agent Peter Strzok to replace ‘‘grossly negligent’’, which is legally punishable under Federal law, with ‘‘extremely careless’’, which is not legally punishable under Federal law

Whereas 
Federal law states gross negligence in handling the Nation’s intelligence can be punished criminally with prison time or fines (18 USC § 793 and 798);

            Whereas 

on June 27, 2016, Attorney General Lynch had a covert meeting with former President Bill Clinton aboard her plane on the tarmac in Phoenix, Arizona;

Whereas

on July 5, 2016,
FBI Director Comey violated 
DOJ rules and unilaterally exonerated then-presidential candidate Hillary Clinton in a public statement to the media;

Whereas
one day later, on July 6, 2016, an announcement followed from Attorney General Lynch that the DOJ investigation into then-presidential candidate Hillary Clinton would be formally closed with no criminal charges;


Anthony and Huma

                           Whereas

in September 2016, the FBI, during an examination of the personal laptop of former 
Congressman Anthony Weiner 
as part of an unrelated investigation into him 
sending sexually explicit messages to a teenage girl,
discovered previously unexamined 
Department of State classified emails 
belonging to his spouse,
top Clinton aide Huma Abedin;



Whereas 


McAuliff and the McCabes
FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe’s wife, Dr. Jill McCabe
was running for Virginia State Senate 
at the time and, as of October 26th, 
had received $675,000 in donations from the Virginia Democratic Party and 
Common Good VA, 
the Leadership PAC controlled by Democratic Virginia Governor Terry McAuliffe
a longtime Clinton associate




Whereas 
an investigation conducted by the Office of the DOJ Inspector General noted that on October 27, 2016, Director Comey required that Deputy Director McCabe remove himself from a conference call regarding the Clinton emails discovered on Anthony Weiner’s laptop to avoid the appearance of a conflict of interest after media reports surfaced noting these questionable political donations; 

Whereas
it took until October 28, 2016, for Director Comey to announce via a letter to the chairs of the relevant congressional committees that he was reopening the investigation into Hillary Clinton, an additional, egregious delay after the FBI failed to even examine the illicit emails after the FBI discovered them on Anthony Weiner’s computer;

Whereas 
further investigation into whether then-FBI Deputy Director McCabe and other FBI officials sought to purposely delay the release of these illicit emails for politically motivated purposes is warranted;

Whereas 
throughout the Obama Administration, the DOJ failed to fully investigate serious concerns surrounding former President Clinton, then-Secretary of State Clinton and the Clinton Foundation’s connection to Russiancompany Uranium One, which received Department of State approval to purchase U.S. uranium mines in 2010;

Whereas 
Another Mass Clinticide, compliments of Putin?
throughout Hillary Clinton’s tenure as Secretary of State, a family foundation controlled by the Chairman of Uranium One made $2,350,000 in contributions to the Clinton Foundation which were not publicly disclosed in violation of an agreement Secretary Clinton had with the Obama White House to publicly identify all donors;

[NOTE: Witnesses who could testify against Hillary died in a mysterious plane crash]



Whereas 
in 2010, while Russian State interests were working to both acquire a majority stake in Uranium One and to purchase American mines, Bill Clinton was paid $500,000 for a speech in Moscow by a Kremlin-linked Russian investment bank that was underwriting Uranium One stock;

Whereas
a confidential informant who worked with the FBI to uncover bribery and other corruption related to the Uranium One matter was threatened with reprisal by the Justice Department under Attorney General Lynch when he tried to come forward in 2016;



Whereas
the Senate Judiciary Committee launched a probe in October 2017 to investigate the Uranium One matter, including whether Federal departments and agencies such as the Department of State knew the FBI was looking into possible corruption before the deal was approved;




                                           

   Whereas 
an investigation conducted by the Office of the DOJ Inspector General noted that a multi-State investigation into the questionable dealings of the Clinton Foundation with corrupt donors was shut down in August 2016, when pressure was asserted on the FBI by senior officials within the Obama Justice Department;

Whereas
the same Inspector General’s report also noted that shutting down this investigation into Clinton Foundation impropriety and influence peddling was connected to high ranking officials in the DOJ and FBI, including Attorney General Lynch, Director Comey, and Deputy Director McCabe;

Whereas 
the same Inspector General’s report also found that Deputy Director McCabe, after consenting to the political pressure to shut down the Clinton Foundation multiState investigation, attempted to later use unauthorized leaks to the press to create a false narrative that he was opposed to the closure of the investigation and that he did this in an attempt
to salvage his reputation following revelations of questionable Clinton-connected money being donated to his wife’s Virginia State Senate campaign; 

Whereas 
in October 2016, the FBI and DOJ used politically biased, unverified sources to obtain warrants issued by the United States Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court of Review (FISA Court) that aided in the surveillance of U.S. citizens, including Carter Page;

[NOTE: Chief Justice Roberts, on 03MAY2018, amended the FISA procedural rules]

Whereas
these warrants grant U.S. intelligence and law enforcement agencies sweeping power to collect bulk information and conduct ‘‘about collection’’, which results in surveillance of a broad array of private communications from the past, present, and future, including those of U.S. citizens not specifically targeted in the FISA authorized warrant;

Whereas 
Steele - MI-6 Case Officer
to obtain these warrants, FBI and DOJ officials submitted an unverified dossier prepared by ChristopherSteele
to the FISA Court,
failing to disclose that 
Christopher Steele was hired by the firm Fusion GPS,
which was hired by the 
Democratic National Committee and Hillary Clinton
campaign to prepare this dossier and that the source was unreliable and was soon thereafter going to be terminated as a source;

Whereas 
the FISA Court was not informed
that Christopher Steele was actively opposed to the election of Donald Trump,
that he was the unnamed source cited in the media reports that the FBI used to corroborate his dossier, and
that Fusion GPS had been hired to perform previous anti-Trump research efforts in 2015;

Whereas 
the Woods Procedures, which are the FBI’s mandatory vetting process required for all FISA warrant applications instituted to ensure that all the facts contained in an application are accurate and verified to clearly support probable cause for a warrant, were not followed;

Whereas 
former Director Comey admitted in sworn testimony to the Senate Judiciary Committee on June 8, 2017, that material contained in the Steele dossier was known to be both ‘‘salacious’’ and ‘‘unverified’’;

Whereas 
since FISA warrant applications
- are rarely turned down,
- are almost never subject to appeal, and
- are presented in closed court with no public record where the Government is not challenged by
  any defense,
it is imperative that the Government take extra care to validate the information being utilized to build their case before they take the extraordinary step of waiving rights of a U.S. citizen without his or her knowledge or the opportunity to present a defense;

Whereas 
at the FISA Court, the Government has a responsibility not only to provide its best evidence in support of its case, but also to provide the best evidence against its case; 

Whereas 
these deeply flawed and questionable FISA warrant applications utilizing illicit sources and politically biased intelligence were approved by DOJ and FBI officials at the highest levels before being submitted to the FISA Court;


Bruce Ohr and his wife
Whereas
it was further not disclosed to the FISA court that 
the wife of fourth-ranking DOJ official Bruce Ohr 
worked for Fusion GPS and that
Christopher Steele directly transmitted the dossier and other information through Bruce Ohr for submission to the FISA court;



Whereas 
to this day there is no evidence 
that President Trump colluded 
with the Russians 
to win the 2016 election; 

Whereas 
the initial FBI probe into the Trump Campaign and alleged collusion with Russia was launched in July 2016, based on questionable and insufficient intelligence and biased motivations;

Whereas 
former Director Comey prepared a series of seven memoranda containing classified information, including notes on his conversations with President Trump;

Whereas 
Comey's "friend" - now Legal Counsel
former Director Comey admitted in sworn testimony to the Senate Committee on Intelligence on June 8, 2017, that he had leaked this content to a personal friend and encouraged that friend to share the material with the press in order to trigger a Special Counsel investigation; 

Whereas 
an investigation conducted by the Senate Judiciary Committee
later revealed that the personal friend of Director Comey was
Professor Daniel Richman of Columbia Law School and that Director Comey provided him with four of the seven memoranda; 

Whereas 
Director Comey’s actions are a clear violation of non-disclosure agreements he signed as a condition of his appointment and a clear violation of FBI protocols regarding the dissemination of sensitive information outside of the Bureau which are based on provisions of the PrivacyAct of 1974 (5 U.S.C. 552a);

FBI Agent Strzok and FBI Counsel Page 
Whereas
text messages exchanged between FBI Agent Strzok and FBI Counsel Lisa Page, during the period of August 16, 2015, to May 17, 2017, contain serious evidence of political bias and the improper handling of investigations within the agency;

Whereas 
the texts contain egregious evidence of bias against President Trump, including Lisa Page stating ‘‘Trump should go f himself’’ and Peter Strzok stating ‘‘F TRUMP’’; 

Whereas 
those text messages were not stored within the FBI archive system, an egregious oversight blamed on a technical glitch, and even after these messages were partially recovered by the Bureau’s Inspector General in January 2018, many unanswered questions remain regarding impropriety and bias;


Possible Political Bias?
                         



Whereas

in March 2018, former FBI Deputy Director McCabe was fired by Attorney General Jeff Sessions who noted that Deputy Director McCabe
  ‘‘lacked candor—including under oath—on multiple occasions’’ and
    had partaken in ‘‘unauthorized disclosure to the news media’’,
among other violations noted in a report issued by the Office of the DOJ Inspector General after a wide-reaching investigation into Deputy Director McCabe’s conduct;










Whereas 
a myriad of DOJ and FBI personnel have been fired or demoted, or have resigned, including
FBI Director Comey, 
Deputy Director McCabe, 
Chief of Staff to the Director James Rybicki, 
FBI General Counsel James Baker, 
FBI Agent Strzok, FBI Counsel Page, 
FBI Special Agent Josh Campbell, 
DOJ Senior Official Ohr, 
FBI Assistant Director Michael Kortan, and 
Assistant Attorney General Peter Kadzik;

Wherea
evidence has come to light that raises serious concerns about egregious misconduct within the DOJ and FBI rooted in political bias;

Whereas 
the DOJ, FBI, or both appear to have planted at least one person into Donald Trump’s Presidential campaign to infiltrate and surveil the campaign;

Whereas 
the DOJ has failed to timely comply with several related document requests by Congress;


FBI's Redacted Document
[an indication of FBI Arrogance] 






Whereas

providing Members of Congress with 
heavily redacted versions of some but not all of the documents demanded and offering Members limited in-person viewing of these documents is an inadequate response to repeated requests after months of delay by the DOJ;










Whereas 
the mission of the Office of the DOJ Inspector General is limited to detecting and deterring waste, fraud, abuse, and misconduct in DOJ programs and personnel and promoting economy and efficiency in those programs, and a fully independent Special Counsel has greater autonomy than an Inspector General or Federal prosecutors to run a non-biased investigation and if necessary bring forth criminal charges; and

Whereas
the DOJ and FBI cannot be expected to fully investigate themselves regarding this matter:

Now, therefore, be it 
Resolved

That it is the sense of Congress that

        (1) DOJ, FBI, and all Federal law enforcement agencies have a sacred duty to uphold     
              our Constitution and to protect our country without any partisan or ideological 
              inclination affecting their important work; 
        (2) Congress acknowledges with gratitude that the vast majority of the men and women
              who serve within these critical agencies do so with the utmost integrity, independence,
              patriotism, and commitment to the rule of law;
        (3) Misconduct regarding FISA abuse, how and why the Hillary Clinton probe ended, and 
              how and why the Trump-Russia probe began should immediately be investigated by a
              Special Counsel who can act independently; and
        (4) The Attorney General of the United States should immediately appoint a Special 
              Counsel to conduct a thorough and independent investigation of these grave concerns.
