Navarro Slams Fauci. MSM Desperate To Discover Who Approved OpEd, Refuses To Question Fauci’s COVID19 Decisions

It was only going to be a matter of time when Dr. Anthony Fauci ’ s inconsistent reports on how to respond to the outbreak of the novel coronavirus would be openly criticized .
The damn has finally broken .
Those who have questioned Fauci ’ s statements openly , however , have become the target of both the Main Stream Media and Fauci ’ s long list of allies .
After all , he ’ s been around a long time and has been praised for his expertise in fighting infectious disease .
He has worked with the federal @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Zika virus and anthrax scares , and now of course , the novel coronavirus .
But that doesn ’ t mean Fauci is infallible and it doesn ’ t mean he ’ s immune from questioning .
So when Peter Navarro , director of the Office of Trade and Manufacturing Policy , penned his opinion editorial in USA Today Wednesday , it wasn ’ t surprising that the media came out in a vengeance against him to support Fauci .
Strangely , as a whole the media doesn ’ t like to question @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ?
Because Fauci , along with his Coronavirus Task Force team , made medical recommendations at the federal level that has turned our nation ’ s economy on its head , removed stability from our children through school closures and has put tens of millions of Americans in the unemployment line .
Arizona Republican Rep. Andy Biggs , who has been openly critical of Fauci ’ s decision process to shut down the country Tweeted Wednesday that “ the mainstream media upset that Fauci & Birx have undermined their own credibility over the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ NO ONE in the mainstream media is questioning the content of the oped , but that the oped was published .
Apparently no one can hold Fauci & Birx accountable , ” he added .
Bigg ’ s is right .
Read below and you ’ ll see what I mean .
Navarro lays out the inconsistencies in Fauci ’ s statements and decision process and all the media cares about is who at the White House approved the editorial .
“ Dr .
Anthony Fauci has a good bedside manner with the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ about everything I have interacted with him on .
In late January , when I was making the case on behalf of the president to take down the flights from China , Fauci fought against the president ’ s courageous decision — which might well have saved hundreds of thousands of American lives .
When I warned in late January in a memo of a possibly deadly pandemic , the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases was telling the news media not to worry .
When I was working @ @ @ @ @ @ @ February to help engineer the fastest industrial mobilization of the health care sector in our history , Fauci was still telling the public the China virus was low risk .
When we were building new mask capacity in record time , Fauci was flip-flopping on the use of masks .
This is why so many people in the country are confused about the virus .
I talk to people in my neighborhood , my friends , at the grocery store and strangers on the street and no one seems to have a consensus @ @ @ @ @ @ @ terrified , while others are unsure if even wearing a mask will actually do anything .
This isn ’ t misinformation but the reality of what is happening in our country .
The novel coronavirus is not only mysterious but it has , without any real understanding of how it operates , completely changed our nation .
So Navarro ’ s opinion about Fauci is not just his opinion , but the opinion of so many Americans .
Most people are confused with all the different news and medical reports regarding the virulency @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as to whether or not masks actually work , what type of mask would work and can the virus spread from an asymptomatic person to someone that may be more susceptible to the virus .
What ’ s wrong with asking questions and why should Navarro , or others , be vilified by the media for speaking their mind .
Instead , the media needs to be investigating .
Reporters need to be asking the same questions and questioning Fauci on some of his wishy washy advice on ways to mitigate the virus @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be a mouthpiece for the ‘ stay home , stay safe and healthy ’ crowd , without getting the answers to how unsafe or unhealthy we really are at this point in time .
The Trump administration also needs to make sure that its task force gets the facts to the American people so that the decisions we make will be based on reality and not on fear .

It was only going to be a matter of time when Dr. Anthony Fauci’s inconsistent reports on how to respond to the outbreak of the novel coronavirus would be openly criticized. The damn has finally broken.
Those who have questioned Fauci’s statements openly, however, have become the target of both the Main Stream Media and Fauci’s long list of allies. After all, he’s been around a long time and has been praised for his expertise in fighting infectious disease. He has worked with the federal response to AIDS, Ebola, the Zika virus and anthrax scares, and now of course, the novel coronavirus. But that doesn’t mean Fauci is infallible and it doesn’t mean he’s immune from questioning.
So when Peter Navarro, director of the Office of Trade and Manufacturing Policy, penned his opinion editorial in USA Today Wednesday, it wasn’t surprising that the media came out in a vengeance against him to support Fauci.
Strangely, as a whole the media doesn’t like to question Fauci’s decision making. Why? Because Fauci, along with his Coronavirus Task Force team, made medical recommendations at the federal level that has turned our nation’s economy on its head, removed stability from our children through school closures and has put tens of millions of Americans in the unemployment line.
If the Peter Navarro op-ed "didn't go through normal White House clearance processes," as the White House claims, will Navarro be punished?
Is there any reason to believe that Navarro acted completely outside normal channels if he is not then reprimanded for attacking Dr. Fauci? — Kyle Griffin (@kylegriffin1) July 15, 2020
The mainstream media upset that Fauci & Birx have undermined their own credibility over the past four months.

Arizona Republican Rep. Andy Biggs, who has been openly critical of Fauci’s decision process to shut down the country Tweeted Wednesday that “the mainstream media upset that Fauci & Birx have undermined their own credibility over the past four months.”
“Notice that NO ONE in the mainstream media is questioning the content of the oped, but that the oped was published. Apparently no one can hold Fauci & Birx accountable,” he added.
Bigg’s is right. Read below and you’ll see what I mean. Navarro lays out the inconsistencies in Fauci’s statements and decision process and all the media cares about is who at the White House approved the editorial.
From Navarro’s USA Today Opinion Editorial
“Dr. Anthony Fauci has a good bedside manner with the public, but he has been wrong about everything I have interacted with him on.
In late January, when I was making the case on behalf of the president to take down the flights from China, Fauci fought against the president’s courageous decision — which might well have saved hundreds of thousands of American lives.
When I warned in late January in a memo of a possibly deadly pandemic, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases was telling the news media not to worry.
When I was working feverishly on behalf of the president in February to help engineer the fastest industrial mobilization of the health care sector in our history, Fauci was still telling the public the China virus was low risk.
When we were building new mask capacity in record time, Fauci was flip-flopping on the use of masks.
This is why so many people in the country are confused about the virus. I talk to people in my neighborhood, my friends, at the grocery store and strangers on the street and no one seems to have a consensus on the virus. Some people are terrified, while others are unsure if even wearing a mask will actually do anything.
This isn’t misinformation but the reality of what is happening in our country. The novel coronavirus is not only mysterious but it has, without any real understanding of how it operates, completely changed our nation.
So Navarro’s opinion about Fauci is not just his opinion, but the opinion of so many Americans. Most people are confused with all the different news and medical reports regarding the virulency of the virus. There are questions as to whether or not masks actually work, what type of mask would work and can the virus spread from an asymptomatic person to someone that may be more susceptible to the virus.
What’s wrong with asking questions and why should Navarro, or others, be vilified by the media for speaking their mind.
Instead, the media needs to be investigating. Reporters need to be asking the same questions and questioning Fauci on some of his wishy washy advice on ways to mitigate the virus.
Investigative journalists shouldn’t just be a mouthpiece for the ‘stay home, stay safe and healthy’ crowd, without getting the answers to how unsafe or unhealthy we really are at this point in time.
The Trump administration also needs to make sure that its task force gets the facts to the American people so that the decisions we make will be based on reality and not on fear.


saraacater--2020-07-16--Disturbing Video Allegedly Shows Blindfolded Uighurs Being Loaded On Trains in China

A horrifying new video leaked on Twitter this week allegedly shows Uighurs being shipped to unknown locations in train cars while blindfolded and bound .
The video was acquired by a brave drone owner .
This video is just one more detail in the ever-evolving story of the injustice the group is facing in the hands of Communist China .
According to PBS , 1 million Uighurs have been placed in 85 different camps in Xinjiang .
The Chinese government says they are “ re-education ” camps — but those who have been interned say it was not an educational @ @ @ @ @ @ @ camp .
Similar to the activities of the Nazis , the Chinese were recently caught in a disgusting violation of human rights when 13 tons of hair , taken from Uighurs , was discovered by U.S. Customs .
“ The news , together with the implication that hair is being forcibly removed from thousands of prisoners then sold , has horrified UK Jewish groups – including the Board of Deputies , Rene Cassin and the Jewish Council for Racial Equality – with some citing its ‘ chilling and obvious resonances ’ with the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .

The Chinese Coast Guard and its maritime militia sailed into Philippine waters around the Second Thomas Shoal in the South China Sea, firing water cannons at Philippine vessels and crew seeking to re-supply a Philippine ship within the Philippines’ Exclusive Economic Zone. The US State Department called such actions by China “inconsistent with international law” and “unwarranted interference in lawful Philippine maritime operations.” The State Department has maintained that China has “no lawful claim” to that area.
But rather than standing down, China is attempting to gaslight the Philippines and the world into accepting its narrative. A spokesman for China’s Ministry of National Defense stated that China “has sovereignty” over the area, which it calls “Nansha Qundao, including Ren’ai Jiao,” according to Xinhua. The area in dispute has always been a part of China, according to Global Times.
The CCP press also states that China “lawfully intercepted” the Philippine vessels, China’s actions towards the Philippines “was professional, restrained, and beyond reproach,” and that the “Philippine side ignored China’s goodwill and sincerity.”
Chinese media also paints the US, not China, as the aggressor. According to a spokesman from China’s Foreign Ministry, the US is “blatantly support[ing] the Philippines’ violation of China’s sovereignty, and its plot is doomed to fail,” according to Global Times. In responding to the incident, the US “continues to hype up the longstanding disputes between China [and its neighbors]” in order “to maintain hegemony and create a ‘security trap’” with those neighbors, according to the president of a Beijing think tank as cited by China Daily. The US has “no right to meddle” in the South China Sea” and is “creating trouble and sowing discord,” according to a spokesman for China’s Ministry of National Defense as cited by that same article.
The CCP press pushes an alternative reality of international law to buttress its claims. The Philippines, not China, is in violation of international law, according to spokesmen of China’s Foreign Ministry and Coast Guard as cited by Global Times. The Philippines committed “illegal” acts by re-supplying its ship, and having its ship there in the first place, according to Global Times. Philippines v. China, or the South China Sea Arbitration, is “‘illegal, null and void’ as it violates international law[…]” according to a spokesman from the Chinese foreign ministry, as cited by China Daily. The spokesman further said that “China does not accept or recognize it, and will never accept any claim or action based on the [arbitration]. This position is clear and firm, and is a legitimate step to uphold the international rule of law.” A Global Times article similarly referred to the arbitration as the “so called South China Sea arbitration,” and that it is “illegal and invalid.”
China continues to bully its neighbors in the South China Sea. At the same time, it wages a sophisticated propaganda effort aimed at obscuring this fact to further its hegemony in the region. The United States needs a clear policy to lead its allies in the region against China’s growing threat.

Declassified Docs Reveal FBI Agents Didn’t Believe Russia Trump Conspiracy. When Will AG Barr Deliver Justice For The Nation?

Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham released declassified FBI documents Friday revealing that senior bureau officials , including those who led the Russia probe , were skeptical early on of stories suggesting President Donald Trump ’ s 2016 campaign was conspiring with Russia .
For the past several years Americans have seen documents turning the narrative that suggested there was such a conspiracy on its head .
So if the same senior Obama and law enforcement officials didn ’ t believe there was evidence to prove a conspiracy , or that one even existed , then who in power gave @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and continue investigating beyond the election ?
Graham , who has promised to call former acting Attorney General Sally Yates , among others , to testify before his committee needs to focus on those very questions .
For years , colleagues and friends of Trump have been the target of those in the FBI intent on proving what they appeared to have known was an obvious lie .
Moreover , strategically feeding those lies in newspapers , social media and cable news outlets throughout the world harmed America ’ s national security .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ ever seen in U.S. politics and it was cultivated by former senior intelligence officials with extraordinary power .
Lastly , and most importantly , the lies have harmed the American people and ripped the nation apart .
That ’ s why the discovery of documents revealing the truth is so important .
It is the only way to begin to cleanse the nation .
Graham made the documents public as part of his investigation into the origins of the Russia investigation .
His ongoing probe coincides with a separate but ongoing criminal investigation @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , who was appointed by Barr last year .
But Americans have witnessed over the past nearly four years investigation after investigation with no actionable results and no indictments .
And Barr ’ s most recent statement that Durham ’ s investigation may not be completed until after the November election is beyond concerning .
I just don ’ t buy the excuse that the COVID-19 epidemic has set back Durham ’ s investigation , as suggested by Barr .
I hope I ’ m wrong .
But I haven ’ t seen @ @ @ @ @ @ @ more than three years ago on the subject.I ’ m starting to feel , like most people involved in exposing what has happed , like there ’ s no light at the end of the tunnel .
But I haven ’ t given up all hope .
Still , just look at what has already happened .
The American public has been made privy to a trove of classified government documents , emails , text messages and internal communications between government officials involved in the Trump Russia investigation .
Those documents have already @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and journalists and for the most part have been declassified .
Judicial Watch , a government watchdog group , has also fought and obtained tens-of-thousands of pages of documents through FOIA .
Still , the DOJ has yet to actually act on it .
For example , in Graham ’ s document dump the public learns again that the FBI did not believe that the Trump campaign was colluding with Russia .
The documents re-enforce what we have already learned that the President was set up .
In the documents , former FBI @ @ @ @ @ @ @ did not see any evidence linking the Trump campaign and Russia as suggested in a New York Times article dated Feb. 14 , 2017 .
“ We have not seen evidence of any officials associated with the Trump team in contact with [ intelligence officers ] .
We are unaware of ANY Trump advisors engaging in conversations with Russian intelligence officials , ” stated Strzok at the time .
He attached a copy of the NYT article to his notes .
Strangely , it was Strzok who suggested , however , in January @ @ @ @ @ @ @ then Trump national security advisor Michael Flynn open .
He did this despite and internal memo from bureau officials suggesting that no derogatory information had been found on Flynn , nor anyone associated with him .
So why were Yates , Strzok , as well as former Deputy Director Andrew McCabe , then FBI Director James Comey all so bent on investigating Trump ?
In there own words , and in numerous documents obtained after years of probes , congressional investigations and Judicial Watch ’ s Freedom of Information Act fights in the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ they had no evidence that there was a conspiracy between the Trump campaign and Russia .
Still , even senior officials , such as former CIA Director John Brennan told Congress that he was aware of information that someone senior in the Trump campaign could be conspiring with Russia .
Former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper alluded to this as well in numerous television interviews .
All of these officials – Clapper , Brennan and Comey – were aware of this information when they went to brief Trump in New York City @ @ @ @ @ @ @ British Spy Christopher Steele and paid for by the Hillary Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee .
So why has no one been prosecuted by the Department of Justice ?
Why have the most obvious questions not been answered by these former senior officials ?
More importantly , where is the justice for what appears to be a blatant attempt to soft coup a president of the United States ?
It ’ s also extremely concerning that Barr is now indicating that Durham may not have a report or indictments until after @ @ @ @ @ @ @ absurd to me , since it ’ s been roughly four years and just look how fast the Justice Department operated under former Special Counsel Robert Mueller to target the president on these unfounded and false allegations .
A 57-page memo released by Graham also detailed the bureau ’ s interview with Steele .
It suggested that the FBI agents were aware that the allegations against Trump were based on unreliable sourcing and shouldn ’ t be trusted .
Strzok also suggested that Steele wasn ’ t able to verify his own sourcing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and for all who was behind targeting President Trump ’ s campaign , administration and the American people who voted for him ?
The people of this country shouldn ’ t have to wait years for the truth and lawmakers shouldn ’ t drag out investigations that needed to be completed years ago .
The Justice Department must do its job and hold those who illegally targeted Trump accountable .
Further , there is no time like the present to unleash justice .
Durham doesn ’ t need to wait until after the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ over the past four years because everyday the evidence reveals that there was an attempt to undo a U.S. election .
Those former senior Obama officials who led the attempted soft-coup against Trump need to be exposed and indicted .
If not , we ’ ll no longer be the nation based on the principals of justice and liberty we believe ourselves to be but something all-together different .
I just can ’ t imagine that ’ s who we are .

Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham released declassified FBI documents Friday revealing that senior bureau officials, including those who led the Russia probe, were skeptical early on of stories suggesting President Donald Trump’s 2016 campaign was conspiring with Russia.
So when will there be justice?
For the past several years Americans have seen documents turning the narrative that suggested there was such a conspiracy on its head. So if the same senior Obama and law enforcement officials didn’t believe there was evidence to prove a conspiracy, or that one even existed, then who in power gave the directive to target the Trump campaign and continue investigating beyond the election?
Graham, who has promised to call former acting Attorney General Sally Yates, among others, to testify before his committee needs to focus on those very questions. For years, colleagues and friends of Trump have been the target of those in the FBI intent on proving what they appeared to have known was an obvious lie.
Moreover, strategically feeding those lies in newspapers, social media and cable news outlets throughout the world harmed America’s national security. It was a disinformation campaign unlike anything ever seen in U.S. politics and it was cultivated by former senior intelligence officials with extraordinary power. Lastly, and most importantly, the lies have harmed the American people and ripped the nation apart.
That’s why the discovery of documents revealing the truth is so important. It is the only way to begin to cleanse the nation. Graham made the documents public as part of his investigation into the origins of the Russia investigation. His ongoing probe coincides with a separate but ongoing criminal investigation being conducted by U.S. Attorney John Durham, who was appointed by Barr last year.
But Americans have witnessed over the past nearly four years investigation after investigation with no actionable results and no indictments. And Barr’s most recent statement that Durham’s investigation may not be completed until after the November election is beyond concerning.
I just don’t buy the excuse that the COVID-19 epidemic has set back Durham’s investigation, as suggested by Barr. I hope I’m wrong. But I haven’t seen any real results since first publishing stories more than three years ago on the subject.I’m starting to feel, like most people involved in exposing what has happed, like there’s no light at the end of the tunnel.
But I haven’t given up all hope.
Still, just look at what has already happened. The American public has been made privy to a trove of classified government documents, emails, text messages and internal communications between government officials involved in the Trump Russia investigation. Those documents have already been obtained by the DOJ, Congress and journalists and for the most part have been declassified.

Strangely, it was Strzok who suggested, however, in January, 2017 to keep an investigation into then Trump national security advisor Michael Flynn open. He did this despite and internal memo from bureau officials suggesting that no derogatory information had been found on Flynn, nor anyone associated with him. So why were Yates, Strzok, as well as former Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, then FBI Director James Comey all so bent on investigating Trump?
In there own words, and in numerous documents obtained after years of probes, congressional investigations and Judicial Watch’s Freedom of Information Act fights in the courts these senior Obama officials state that they had no evidence that there was a conspiracy between the Trump campaign and Russia. Still, even senior officials, such as former CIA Director John Brennan told Congress that he was aware of information that someone senior in the Trump campaign could be conspiring with Russia.
Former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper alluded to this as well in numerous television interviews. All of these officials – Clapper, Brennan and Comey – were aware of this information when they went to brief Trump in New York City on the fake dossier compiled by former British Spy Christopher Steele and paid for by the Hillary Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee.
So why has no one been prosecuted by the Department of Justice? Why have the most obvious questions not been answered by these former senior officials? More importantly, where is the justice for what appears to be a blatant attempt to soft coup a president of the United States?
It’s also extremely concerning that Barr is now indicating that Durham may not have a report or indictments until after the November Presidential elections. That seems absurd to me, since it’s been roughly four years and just look how fast the Justice Department operated under former Special Counsel Robert Mueller to target the president on these unfounded and false allegations.

So we need to know once and for all who was behind targeting President Trump’s campaign, administration and the American people who voted for him?
The people of this country shouldn’t have to wait years for the truth and lawmakers shouldn’t drag out investigations that needed to be completed years ago.
The Justice Department must do its job and hold those who illegally targeted Trump accountable. Further, there is no time like the present to unleash justice.
Durham doesn’t need to wait until after the election to shed light on what happened over the past four years because everyday the evidence reveals that there was an attempt to undo a U.S. election.
Those former senior Obama officials who led the attempted soft-coup against Trump need to be exposed and indicted. If not, we’ll no longer be the nation based on the principals of justice and liberty we believe ourselves to be but something all-together different.

Those emails , some of which are heavily redacted , reveal that “ Strzok , Page and top bureau officials in the days prior to and following President Donald Trump ’ s inauguration discussing a White House counterintelligence briefing that could “ play into ” the FBI ’ s “ investigative @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by Strzok to Bill Priestap , the Former Assistant Director for the Counterintelligence Division , refers to what appears to be a confidential informant in the White House .
The email was sent the day after Trump ’ s inauguration .
“ I heard from [ redacted ] about the WH CI briefing routed from [ redacted ] , ” wrote Strzok .
“ I am angry that Jen did not at least cc : me , as my branch has pending investigative matters there , this brief may play into our investigative @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ability to have visibility and provide thoughts/counsel to you in advance of the briefing .
This is one of the reasons why I raised the issue of lanes/responsibilities that I did when you asked her to handle WH detailee interaction.
” In April , 2019 this reporter first published information that there was an alleged confidential informant for the FBI in the White House .
In fact , then senior Republican Chairmen of the Senate Appropriations Committee Charles Grassley and Senate Homeland Security Committee Chairman Ron Johnson submitted a letter to Department of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ new texts from Strzok to Page showing the pair had discussed attempts to recruit sources within the White House to allegedly spy on the Trump administration .
The Chairmen revealed the information in a three page letter .
The texts had been already been obtained by SaraACarter.com and information regarding the possible attempt to recruit White House sources had been divulged by several sources to this news site last week .
At the time , texts obtained by this news site and sources stated that Strzok had one significant contact within the White @ @ @ @ @ @ @ have been Vice President Mike Pence ’ s Chief of Staff Joshua Pitcock , as reported .
Over the past year , Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz , along with years of numerous Congressional investigations , has uncovered a plethora of documentation revealing the most intimate details of the FBI ’ s now debunked investigation into Trump ’ s campaign and its alleged conspiracy with Russia .
For example , in a series of emails exchanged by top bureau officials – in the FBI General Counsel ’ s office , Counterintelligence Division @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , 2017 – reveal that senior leadership , including former Deputy Director Andrew McCabe were coordinating with each other in their ongoing attempt to target the incoming administration .
Priestap was also included in the email exchanges .
The recent discovery in April , of Priestap ’ s handwritten notes taken in January , 2017 before the Strzok and his FBI partner interviewed Flynn were a bombshell .
In Priestap ’ s notes he states , “ What ’ s our goal ?
Truth/Admission or to get him to lie , so we @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ?
” In one recent email chain obtained by Judicial Watch , FBI assistant general counsel in the FBI ’ s National Security Law Branch stated in an email to Strzok [ which was almost entirely redacted ] “ I ’ ll give Trisha/Baker a heads up too , ” it stated .
Strzok ’ s reply to the assistant general counsel , however , was redacted by DOJ .
The response back to Strzok has also been redacted .
Then later in the evening at 7:04 p.m. , Strzok sends another emails @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Priestap ) this afternoon and he was trying without success to reach the DD [ McCabe ] .
I will forward below to him as his [ sic ] changes the timeline .
What ’ s your recommendation ?
” The reply , like many of the documents obtained by Judicial Watch from the DOJ , is almost entirely redacted .
The email response to Strzok was from the Counterintelligence Division .
Here ’ s what was not redacted “ Approved by tomorrow afternoon is the request .
[ Redacted ] – please @ @ @ @ @ @ @ An unidentified official replies , “ [ Redacted ] , Bill is aware and willing to jump in when we need him.
” Judicial Watch Timeline of Events On Emails Obtained Through FOIA At 8 p.m. , Strzok responds back ( copying officials in the Counterintelligence Division , Washington Field Office and General Counsel ’ s office ) : “ Just talked with Bill .
[ Redacted ] .
Please relay above to WFO and [ redacted ] tonight , and keep me updated with plan for meet and results of same .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ whole email exchange to Lisa Page , saying , “ Bill spoke with Andy .
[ Redacted . ]
Here we go again … ” The day after Trump ’ s inauguration , on Jan. 21 , 2017 , Strzok forwarded Page and [ a redacted person ] an email he ’ d sent that day to Priestap .
Strzok asked them to “ not forward/share.
” In the email to Priestap , Strzok said , “ I heard from [ redacted ] about the WH CI briefing routed from [ redacted ] @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not at least cc : me , as my branch has pending investigative matters there , this brief may play into our investigative strategy , and I would like the ability to have visibility and provide thoughts/counsel to you in advance of the briefing .
This is one of the reasons why I raised the issue of lanes/responsibilities that I did when you asked her to handle WH detailee interaction.
” “ Also , on January 21 , 2017 , Strzok wrote largely the same message he ’ d sent to Priestap directly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ” states Judicial Watch .
The records were produced to Judicial Watch in a January 2018 Freedom of Information Act ( FOIA ) lawsuit filed after the DOJ failed to respond to a December 2017 request for all communications between Strzok and Page ( Judicial Watch v. U.S. Department of Justice ( No .
1:18-cv-00154 ) ) .
The FBI has only processed emails at a rate of 500 pages per month and has yet to process text messages .
At this rate , the production of these communications , which still number @ @ @ @ @ @ @ completed until at least late 2021 .
In other emails , Strzok comments on reporting on the anti-Trump dossier authored by Hillary Clinton ’ s paid operative Christopher Steele .
In a January 2017 email , Strzok takes issue with a UK Independent report which claimed Steele had suspected there was a “ cabal ” within the FBI which put the Clinton email investigation above the Trump-Russia probe .
Strzok , a veteran counterintelligence agent , was at the heart of both the Clinton email and Trump-Russia investigations .
In April and June @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the dossier as key evidence in obtaining FISA warrants to spy on Trump campaign associate Carter Page .
In a declassified summary of a Department of Justice assessment of the warrants that was released by the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court ( FISC ) in January of this year , it was determined that those two applications to secretly monitor Page lacked probable cause .
The newly released records include a January 11 , 2017 , email from Strzok to Lisa Page , Priestap , and Deputy Assistant Director of Counterintelligence Jon Moffa , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to the dossier as containing “ unsubstantiated accounts ” and “ unproven claims.
” In the email , Strzok comments on the article , calling it “ Pretty good reporting.
” On January 14 , 2017 , FBI Assistant Director for Public Affairs Michael Kortan forwards to Strzok , Page and Priestap a link to a UK Independent article entitled “ Former MI6 Agent Christopher Steele ’ s Frustration as FBI Sat On Donald Trump Russia File for Months ” .
The article , citing security sources , notes that “ Steele became @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to take action on the intelligence from others as well as him .
He came to believe there was a cover-up : that a cabal within the Bureau blocked a thorough inquiry into Mr Trump , focusing instead on the investigation into Clinton ’ s emails.
” Strzok responds : “ Thanks Mike .
Of course not accurate [ the cover-up/cabal nonsense ] .
Is that question gaining traction anywhere else ?
” The records also include a February 10 , 2017 , email from Strzok to Page mentioning then-national security adviser Michael @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ) and includes a photo of Flynn and Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak .
Strzok also makes a joke about how McCabe had fat shamed Kislyak .
On February 8 , 2017 , Strzok , under the subject “ RE : EO on Economic Espionage , ” emailed Lisa Page , saying , “ Please let [ redacted ] know I talked to [ redacted ] .
Tonight , he approached Flynn ’ s office and got no information.
” Strzok was responding to a copy of an email Page had sent him .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ official to Deputy Director McCabe read : “ OPS has not received a draft EO on economic espionage .
Instead , the U.S. Chamber of Commerce advised OPS that they received a draft , but they did not send us the draft .
I ’ ll follow up with our detailees about this EO.
” Flynn resigned on February 13 , 2017 .
On January 26 , 2017 , Nancy McNamara of the FBI ’ s Inspection Division emailed Strzok and Priestap with the subject line “ Leak , ” saying , “ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ forwarded to SIOC .
I got the tel call report , however [ redacted ] .
Feel free to give me a call if I have it wrong.
” Strzok forwarded the McNamara email to Lisa Page and an unidentified person in the General Counsel ’ s office , saying , “ Need to talk to you about how to respond to this.
” On January 11 , 2017 , Yahoo News reporter Michael Isikoff emailed Kortan , saying he ’ d learned that Steele had worked for the Bureau ’ s Eurasian @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the dossier on Trump-Russian “ collusion ” to the bureau in Rome .
Kortan forwards Isikoff ’ s email to aide Richard Quinn , who forwards to Strzok “ just for visibility ” .
Strzok forwards to his boss , Priestap and Moffa , saying , “ FYI , [ redacted ] , you or I should probably inform [ redacted ] .
How ’ s your relationship with him ?
Bill unless you object , I ’ ll let Parmaan [ presumably senior FBI official Bryan Paarmann ] know.
” Strzok forwards @ @ @ @ @ @ @ On January 18 , 2017 , reporter Peter Elkind of ProPublica reached out to Kortan , asking to interview Strzok , Michael Steinbach , Jim Baker , Priestap , former FBI Director James Comey and DEA administrator Chuck Rosenberg for a story Elkind was working on .
Kortan replied , “ Okay , I will start organizing things.
” Further along in the thread , an FBI Press Office official reached out to an FBI colleague for assistance with the interviews , saying Steinbach had agreed to a “ background discussion ” with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ‘ definitive ’ account of what happened during the Clinton investigation , specifically , Comey ’ s handling of the investigation , seeking to reconstruct and explain in much greater detail what he did and why he did it.
” In May 2017 , Elkind wrote an article titled “ The Problems With the FBI ’ s Email Investigation Went Well Beyond Comey , ” which in light of these documents , strongly suggests many FBI officials leaked to the publication .
Strzok ended up being scheduled to meet with Elkind at 9:30 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ before an Elkind interview of Comey ’ s chief of staff Jim Rybicki .
Elkind ’ s reporting on the Clinton email investigation was discussed at length in previous emails obtained by Judicial Watch .
“ These documents suggest that President Trump was targeted by the Comey FBI as soon as he stepped foot in the Oval Office , ” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton .
“ And now we see how the Comey FBI was desperate to spin , through high-level leaks , its mishandling of the Clinton email investigation .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ it should be noted that Wray ’ s FBI and Barr ’ s DOJ continue slow-walk the release of thousands of Page-Strzok emails – which means the remaining 8,000 pages of records won ’ t be reviewed and released until 2021-2022 !
” In February 2020 , Judicial Watch uncovered an August 2016 email in which Strzok says that Clinton , in her interview with the FBI about her email controversy , apologized for “ the work and effort ” it caused the bureau and she said she chose to use it “ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it proved to be anything but.
” Strzok said Clinton ’ s apology and the “ convenience ” discussion were “ not in ” the FBI 302 report that summarized the interview .
Also in February , Judicial Watch made public Strzok-Page emails showing their direct involvement in the opening of Crossfire Hurricane , the bureau ’ s investigation of alleged collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia .
The records also show additional “ confirmed classified emails ” were found on Clinton ’ s unsecure non-state.gov email server “ beyond the number @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ s statements ; Strzok and Page questioning the access the DOJ was granting Clinton ’ s lawyers ; and Page revealing that the DOJ was making edits to FBI 302 reports related to the Clinton Midyear Exam investigation .
The emails detail a discussion about “ squashing ” an issue related to the Seth Rich controversy .
In January 2020 , Judicial Watch uncovered Strzok-Page emails that detail special accommodations given to the lawyers of Clinton and her aides during the FBI investigation of the Clinton email controversy .
In November 2019 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ show the attorney representing three of Clinton ’ s aides were given meetings with senior FBI officials .
Also in November , Judicial Watch uncovered emails revealing that after Clinton ’ s statement denying the transmission of classified information over her unsecure email system , Strzok sent an email to FBI officials citing “ three [ Clinton email ] chains ” containing ( C ) [ classified ] portion marks in front of paragraphs.
” In a related case , in May 2020 , Judicial Watch received the “ electronic communication ” ( @ @ @ @ @ @ @ investigation , termed “ Crossfire Hurricane , ” of President Trump ’ s 2016 presidential campaign .
The document was written by former FBI official Peter Strzok .

A top government watchdog group obtained 136 pages of never before publicized emails between former FBI lovers Peter Strzok and Lisa Page and one in particular appears to refer to a confidential informant inside the White House in 2017, according to a press release from Judicial Watch.

saraacater--2020-07-17--McEnany Slams Chicago Mayor For Calling Her A ‘Karen’

White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany slammed Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot , who called her a ‘ Karen ’ Thursday , suggesting she ’ s been neglecting the ongoing violence in her city and should spend less time attempting to insult her on Twitter .
“ While you ’ re focused on words , America is outraged by the violence perpetuated in our city , ” McEnany wrote on Twitter in response to Lightfoot ’ s accusation .
“ One person is taking action to stop violence in our streets : President @ realDonaldTrump .
He ’ s offered your @ @ @ @ @ @ @ dereliction of duty not to take it.
” The term ‘ karen ’ is used to describe a “ rude , obnoxious and insufferable middle aged white women , ” according to Urban Dictionary .
Lightfoot used the ‘ Karen ’ label after McEnany called her “ the derelict mayor of Chicago ” and highlighted the Trump Administration ’ s offers to aid her city .
SaraACarter.com has been following the violence in the city for weeks .
And , the COVID lockdowns and the riots in the wake of the tragic death @ @ @ @ @ @ @ matters worse .
Over Father ’ s Day weekend , 102 people were shot , and , over 79 people were shot over the Fourth of July holiday weekend in the City .

In an unexpected turn of events, the city of Goodhue in southeastern Minnesota finds itself without a police force as the chief and other department members tendered their resignations.
Mayor Ellen Anderson Buck conveyed the city’s determination to move forward despite the setback, assuring the public of continued police coverage.
Mayor Buck emphasized, “I want to reiterate that we will have police coverage in the city of Goodhue. That is not an issue.” Police Chief Josh Smith, who will remain in his position until August 24th, attributed the force’s dissolution to the inability to recruit new officers, according to reports from Fox News.
“This has been three weeks now, we have zero applicants, and I have zero prospects,” Smith disclosed on July 26. “I’ve called every PD around for the youngest guys out there, getting into the game. There’s nobody getting into the game.”
Chris Schmit, a Goodhue City Council member, praised the police force for their commitment to upholding law and order in the city, underscoring their invaluable contribution to the community’s safety. “I can probably speak for everyone when I say that they provided excellent safety and security to our community. And the small-town policing that they did, we want that back.”
Smith bared a stark truth to the Goodhue City Council, unraveling the crux of the department’s recruitment turmoil. The resounding echo of low wages and the unrelenting surge of rivalry from neighboring larger communities reverberated through his words. With an urgency born of necessity, he underscored the imperative for swift and substantial transformation to reorient this daunting trajectory.
In a state that has witnessed significant policing developments, including the George Floyd case, Minneapolis serves as a prominent backdrop. The latest ex-Minneapolis police officer convicted in Floyd’s death received a sentence of four years and nine months on August 7. Prior to his sentencing, Tou Thao, the former officer, shared a personal reflection on his faith journey while incarcerated.
Despite repeated attempts, the Goodhue Police Department, the mayor, and city council members remained unavailable for comments.
This unexpected loss of an entire police force underscores the challenges many smaller communities face in maintaining law enforcement personnel amidst increasing demands and competition from larger urban centers.

saraacater--2020-07-17--Mercedes Schlapp: A Biden Economy Would Be ‘Incredibly Destructive’

“ I think we have to say goodbye to the so-called moderate career politician Joe Biden because he has made a political play to unite himself to Bernie Sanders and the Socialists , ” said Schlapp .
“ And , in fact , even Bernie Sanders has said that Biden would be the most progressive president that we ’ ve seen in decades.
” She added , “ Biden has decided to embrace this unity platform .
Quote unquote .
Let ’ s just think about this .
This is about abolishing ICE .
This is about halting deportations of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the Green New Deal that would cost hundreds of thousands of jobs in the energy industry .
This is about ensuring that we ’ re able to add more regulations , which we know would be burdensome over-regulation that would stunt American economic growth.
” The economy President Donald Trump built , which put money back in Americans ’ pockets , is what Biden wants to reverse , Schlapp said .
Instead , under a Biden administration , that money would be allocated for plans such as his clean energy proposal , which @ @ @ @ @ @ @ taxpayer .
“ And then , of course , what Biden has called from the beginning , which is that he would roll back President Trump ’ s tax cuts you ’ re talking , then that based on , for example , his big , clean energy plan that he has that would cost trillions of dollars as well as combining this with the unity platform , it ’ s gon na cause tax increases for about 82 % of Americans , ” she added .
Schlapp didn ’ t mince words @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ steal 585,000 jobs ” from Americans .
“ I mean , this is devastating for American families .
This is devastating for the American worker , ” she said .
“ And it ’ s why Joe Biden needs to be stopped.
” The Administration ’ s tax policies have allowed Americans the freedom to do things like buy a home or take their families on vacations .
Under Biden ’ s government , there wouldn ’ t be such freedom because of the sweeping tax increases , Schlapp explained .
“ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ re facing right now in terms of knowing that for Joe Biden , his economic plan would be incredibly destructive .
The president has been able to build an America that ’ s energy independent .
And you ’ re talking about for Joe Biden and for Bernie Sanders , they ’ ve launched a war on American Energy independence by saying that they ’ re going to rejoin the Paris climate agreement accorded that , they ’ re gon na mandate net-zero carbon emissions from homes , offices and all new buildings @ @ @ @ @ @ @ And It ’ s like such an extreme plan that , as we know , would be detrimental to the American worker .
”

“In fact, even Bernie Sanders has said that Biden would be the most progressive president that we’ve seen in decades.” Mercedes Schlapp, senior advisor to President Trump and Vice President Pence Campaign 2020
On Thursday’s airing of “The Sara Carter Show” podcast, Trump 2020 Campaign Senior Advisor Mercedes Schlapp explained why the country run by former Vice President Joe Biden would be a disaster for American families and American workers.
“I think we have to say goodbye to the so-called moderate career politician Joe Biden because he has made a political play to unite himself to Bernie Sanders and the Socialists,” said Schlapp. “And, in fact, even Bernie Sanders has said that Biden would be the most progressive president that we’ve seen in decades.”
She added, “Biden has decided to embrace this unity platform. Quote unquote. Let’s just think about this. This is about abolishing ICE. This is about halting deportations of illegal immigrants. This is about supporting the Green New Deal that would cost hundreds of thousands of jobs in the energy industry. This is about ensuring that we’re able to add more regulations, which we know would be burdensome over-regulation that would stunt American economic growth.”
The economy President Donald Trump built, which put money back in Americans’ pockets, is what Biden wants to reverse, Schlapp said. Instead, under a Biden administration, that money would be allocated for plans such as his clean energy proposal, which demands $2 trillion from the American taxpayer.
“And then, of course, what Biden has called from the beginning, which is that he would roll back President Trump’s tax cuts you’re talking, then that based on, for example, his big, clean energy plan that he has that would cost trillions of dollars as well as combining this with the unity platform, it’s gonna cause tax increases for about 82% of Americans,” she added.
Schlapp didn’t mince words saying Biden’s plan would literally “steal 585,000 jobs” from Americans.
“I mean, this is devastating for American families. This is devastating for the American worker,” she said. “And it’s why Joe Biden needs to be stopped.”
The Administration’s tax policies have allowed Americans the freedom to do things like buy a home or take their families on vacations. Under Biden’s government, there wouldn’t be such freedom because of the sweeping tax increases, Schlapp explained.
“There is this reality that we’re facing right now in terms of knowing that for Joe Biden, his economic plan would be incredibly destructive. The president has been able to build an America that’s energy independent. And you’re talking about for Joe Biden and for Bernie Sanders, they’ve launched a war on American Energy independence by saying that they’re going to rejoin the Paris climate agreement accorded that, they’re gonna mandate net-zero carbon emissions from homes, offices and all new buildings and get rid of fossil fuels. And It’s like such an extreme plan that, as we know, would be detrimental to the American worker.”

UPDATE:
In a significant turn of events, Attorney General Merrick Garland made a surprising announcement on Friday, elevating Delaware U.S. Attorney David Weiss to the role of special counsel. This decision marks a shift in focus towards the investigation of the Biden family’s financial matters. The probe, which encompasses Hunter Biden’s tax affairs and any potential connections his father, President Joe Biden, might have with his foreign associates, is slated to extend into the 2024 election cycle. Interestingly, this move comes as former President Donald Trump is simultaneously facing two federal indictments from the same department.
Garland stressed that the decision to appoint Weiss as an independent prosecutor aligns with the “public interest” and adheres to departmental regulations. Importantly, this transition was initiated by Weiss himself, who, earlier this week, conveyed his belief that the investigation had reached a point where he should proceed as a special counsel.
Weiss is no stranger to this intricate landscape. He is the federal prosecutor responsible for bringing charges against President Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, in Delaware. Recent times have witnessed the unfolding of legal proceedings involving Hunter Biden, including a probation-oriented plea arrangement that was ultimately rejected by a judge. In June, Hunter Biden agreed to a deal with federal prosecutors, admitting guilt in two tax-related offenses and a firearm charge, potentially leading to the dismissal of the latter charge. This latest development underscores the intensification of scrutiny into the financial affairs of the Biden family and highlights the evolving legal landscape involving prominent political figures.
—
Attorney General Merrick Garland will speak to the public Friday afternoon. It is highly anticipated because I believe, as do many others, that he may be getting ready to announce the appointment of a Special Counsel to investigate “Hunter Biden” and his financial dealings overseas. Although, welcome there are still too many concerns with the DOJ that need to be addressed and there is little faith among many Americans that anything will be done.
Americans have witnessed the makings and the result of a two tiered justice system since President Trump was elected and then the continuing targeting of Trump even after his term as president.
I’ve spoken about the need for an outside investigation into Hunter Biden and President Biden at length on my podcast, The Sara Carter Show and on Fox News. But I’ve been jaded by the failures of past investigations and the weaponization of the Justice Department to do its job. The failure of the DOJ to be blind and just has been devastating to our nation.
Will Garland appoint a special counsel? I don’t know but as Americans we must demand that our leadership, our bureaucracies and our law makers follow the rule of law without prejudice. If they do not, as we have seen over the past decade with the establishments attacks on President Donald Trump and the weaponization of the system to target him, then our foundation will not only be fractured but it will be irreparable.
Either way, the alleged crimes and obvious financial connections linked to the Biden family with adversarial nations like China and Russia must be thoroughly investigated and the investigation must be made public. The Biden connections and large sums of money taken from government connected energy companies in Ukraine must also be thoroughly vetted and any improprieties must be made public.

In a recent development, the Tate brothers, Andrew and Tristan, along with two associates, find themselves at the center of a high-profile case involving human trafficking allegations.
The charges leveled against them indicate the formation of an organized criminal group in 2021 with the intent to carry out human trafficking operations not only in Romania but also in the United States and the United Kingdom, according to the BBC.
The investigation, which led to their arrest in December last year, has culminated in an indictment filed with the Bucharest court. According to the indictment, the Tate brothers are accused of luring their victims with false promises of love and marriage. Seven individuals have been identified as alleged victims, who were later coerced and subjected to a harrowing ordeal.
Prosecutors contend that the victims were taken to locations in Ilfov county, Romania, where they faced constant surveillance, intimidation, and control. The defendants allegedly forced the victims into debt and coerced them into participating in pornographic activities, with the explicit material subsequently shared on social media platforms. Shockingly, one of the defendants is accused of raping a woman on two occasions in March 2022, further amplifying the gravity of the charges.
While the trial is not expected to commence immediately, as a Romanian judge is granted 60 days to inspect the case files, it is anticipated to be a protracted legal battle. The complexity of the case and the severity of the charges will undoubtedly result in a lengthy trial process, with several years potentially passing before a verdict is reached.
Representatives for the Tate brothers released a statement acknowledging the unsurprising nature of the news but maintaining their belief in their innocence.
As reported by the BBC, the Tate brothers media team stared, “While this news is undoubtedly predictable, we embrace the opportunity it presents to demonstrate their innocence and vindicate their reputation.”
They expressed their eagerness to present a comprehensive body of evidence meticulously collected over time, which they believe will substantiate their claims of innocence and restore their tarnished reputation.
However, it should be noted that additional charges, such as money laundering and trafficking of minors, are still under investigation. If evidence is uncovered to support these allegations, a separate indictment could be filed, further complicating the legal proceedings for the defendants.
Andrew Tate, who gained notoriety through his participation in the reality television show Big Brother, has a controversial past, having been removed from the show in 2016 following a video that appeared to depict him assaulting a woman.
Despite subsequent bans on social media platforms due to his contentious statements, he has managed to amass a following, particularly among young men, by promoting an ostentatious and hyper-masculine lifestyle.
As the case unfolds, public attention will undoubtedly be drawn to the trial, with many eagerly awaiting the outcome and hoping for justice to be served for the alleged victims. The complex web of charges and the high-profile nature of the defendants ensure that this trial will be closely monitored and scrutinized by the media and the public alike.

Officials found an illegal Chinese biotech laboratory being conducted in a warehouse in Reedley, California. The Chinese medical company Prestige Biotech “was the largest creditor of the now defunct med-tech company Universal Meditech and took control of it following bankruptcy. The Chinese-run company did not have a license to operate in California” reports National Review.
Wang Zhaolin, a spokesman for Prestige Biotech, told the San Joaquin Valley Sun that the mice “were genetically engineered to catch and carry the Covid-19 virus,” the newspaper reported. Court documents further showed that the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) conducted tests on the more than 800 chemicals found at the site and that over 20 infectious agents were found present, including Hepatitis B and C, streptococcus pneumonia, chlamydia, rubella, and Herpes 1 and 5.
The investigation began in April after a garden hose was illegally attached to the back of the building. Biological agents from the building were destroyed July 7 following a legal abatement process by the Fresno County Public Health Department.
Foreign Desk News reports:
According to reports, the tenant of the illegal lab was Prestige BioTech; a company registered in Nevada and unlicensed for business in California. City officials spoke with the company’s President, Xiuquin Yao, who told officials that Prestige BioTech transferred assets belonging to a defunct company, Universal Meditech Inc. (UMI), to the Reedley warehouse from Fresno after UMI went bankrupt.
Another official from the company, Wang Zhaolin, told investigators the mice were genetically engineered to catch and spread the COVID-19 virus.
The lab had “around 30 refrigerators, operational and non-operational freezers, incubators, and medical testing supplies. Upon searching the building, officials found 800 different chemicals and have yet to identify all of them.”

saraacater--2020-07-20--Communist Chinese News Outlets Support and Promote the ‘Never Trump’ Lincoln Project

As mainstream media outlets across America write positive coverage about the Lincoln Project ‘ s ads attacking President Trump and the organization ’ s belief that “ Trump and those who sign onto Trumpism are a clear and present danger , ” another media source is promoting the group : Chinese Communist Party propaganda outlets .
China Global Television Network ( CGTN ) and China Daily — both deemed by the State Department as foreign agents — are operated by the Communist Chinese Party and have frequently voiced support for the group , as reported by the National Pulse .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ wrote an op-ed piece detailing the group ’ s founding , purpose , and advertising campaigns with ads that play constantly on news channels and Youtube pages across America .
“ A group known as the Lincoln Project has produced dozens of hit videos that quickly reached millions of views on Twitter and Youtube , ” the communist Chinese publication editor wrote .
