I dunno about plans. But I do know strategy and scripted events--of which there have been hundreds over the past four years. And all throughout the endeavor, this administration merged the Fed and Treasury and appointed three Supreme Court Justices. The media has been alleging toil and trouble and a 'crash and burn' presidency, and yet so much has been accomplished. It's not speculation to say massive moves have being ongoing behind the scenes while drama is played out right in front of us--Cuomo was given an Emmy for fucksakes. In many quarters they're not even hiding that it's all an act. Like I told Iggy three years ago, we are Rome and everything we see from on high is a scripted tragedy. You, allegedly, switched paradigms for that exact reason, and yet you play dumb.

Link - ZeroHedge: Durham Gets Special Counsel Upgrade 'To Protect' Russiagate Origins Investigation

Attorney General William Bar has upgraded US Attorney John Durham to special counsel, affording him extra protection against a Biden administration canceling his investigation into the origins of the FBI/DOJ Trump-Russia probe - which cost taxpayers over $40 million and dominated the news for over three years.

According to the Associated Press, Barr said Durham had been appointed special counsel in October under the same federal statue which governed Robert Mueller's investigation in the Russia probe.

  • He said Durham’s investigation has been narrowing to focus more on the conduct of FBI agents who worked on the Russia investigation, known as Crossfire Hurricane.

    The investigations grew out of allegations of cooperation between Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign and Russians to help him defeat Democrat Hillary Clinton. -AP


"I decided the best thing to do would be to appoint them under the same regulation that covered Bob Muller, to provide Durham and his team some assurance that they’d be able to complete their work regardless of the outcome of the election," Barr told AP, who added that the Durham investigation has "narrowed considerably" and is now "really is focused on the activities of the crossfire hurricane investigation within the FBI."

Many had been expecting Durham to produce some type of report, indictment, or some type of findings prior to the 2020 election.

According to the Oct. 19 order obtained by AP, Barr authorized Durham "to investigate whether any federal official, employee or any person or entity violated the law in connection with the intelligence, counter-intelligence or law enforcement activities" used against the 2016 Trump campaign or members of the Trump administration.

  • A senior Justice Department official told the AP that although the order details that it is “including but not limited to Crossfire Hurricane and the investigation of Special Counsel Robert S. Mueller III,” the Durham probe has not expanded. The official said that line specifically relates to FBI personnel who worked on the Russia investigation before the May 2017 appointment of Mueller, a critical area of scrutiny for both Durham and for the Justice Department inspector general, which identified a series of errors and omissions in surveillance applications targeting a former Trump campaign associate.


AP notes that the focus is on the FBI, 'rather than the CIA and the intelligence community,' which essentially means former CIA Director John Brennan and current CIA Director Gina Haspel (who ran the London CIA bureau while the majority of operation crossfire hurricane took place on UK soil) are pretty much in the clear.

On Sunday, President Trump telegraphed the move in an interview with Fox News' Maria Bartiromo.

Until and unless proven otherwise, we're going to assume this is all political theater.

In my mind, Investigating election fraud would exceed the DOJ's left and right limits, since Trump has Barr focused elsewhere. It's not that it would be outside their purview, but Trump wouldn't want them doing it. As such, they haven't found any official evidence because they aren't looking for it--and neither is Giuliani who's putting on a show. Going back to optics, using the DOJ--or the Supreme Court for that matter--to affirm Trump's claims would be controversial on its face since he'd be using a public institution to, quite possibly, maintain his position in office rather than any inherently constitutional or grassroots means (see also: Trump encouraging Giuliani, Powell, et al to pursue the course). I could be wrong on the SCOTUS thing, but I don't think I am. Amy Coney Barret strikes me as a Red Herring. I don't necessarily trust Barr anymore than I did Scarramucci, Manafort, Mattis, Tillerman, or any of the other revolving door of turncoats that Trump kept close before flinging them away. But all the moves he's been making have thusfar been in sync with what it looks like Trump is going to do.

At this point, Trump doesn't need the courts to convince people of the obvious...

Whether you are a Republican, a Democrat or someone that doesn’t identify with either major party, you should care deeply about the integrity of our elections. Because if we don’t have elections that are free and fair, our system of government simply will not work. If we come out of the 2020 elections with about half the country believing that the race for president was rigged, that is a major problem. Once faith in our elections is gone, it will be nearly impossible to restore, and that is why it is absolutely imperative that we try to figure out how this election went so haywire.

In recent days, I have seen so many people point out some of the numbers from the election that should be deeply bothering all of us. In this article, I am going to try to summarize some of the most important points.

In 2012, Barack Obama cruised to re-election even though he received 3.5 million less votes than he got in 2008.

In 2020, President Trump was supposedly soundly defeated even though he received 11 million more votes than he did in 2016.

They are telling us that Trump was defeated because of a historic turnout by Biden voters. But the number of counties that Biden actually won was a record low for a “winning candidate” by a very wide margin. It is being reported that Trump won 83 percent of all U.S. counties, and Biden only won 17 percent…

  • We are told that Biden won more votes nationally than any presidential candidate in history. But he won a record low of 17 percent of counties; he only won 524 counties, as opposed to the 873 counties Obama won in 2008. Yet, Biden somehow outdid Obama in total votes.


How in the world can you win the presidency by losing more than 80 percent of the counties in the entire country?

Yes, I understand that the major population centers are where the votes are. But when Obama won his two elections, at least he was victorious in more than 20 percent of all U.S. counties both times…

  • Former President Obama ushered in the previous low in 2012, winning re-election with just 689 counties, or 22 percent – breaking his own record set in 2008, where he won with 875 counties, or 28 percent.


Biden underperformed Obama almost everywhere except in the urban population centers that were absolutely critical to Biden’s victory.

In those urban population centers, Biden supposedly piled up obscene vote totals that are very difficult to believe.

And it just so happens that those heavily blue urban population centers all seemed to stop counting votes at about the same time on the night of the election. All of a sudden, voting came to a standstill in Milwaukee, Detroit, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and Atlanta.

As many have pointed out, if you stop and wait to see how all of the other areas of your state have voted, you can figure out exactly how many votes you need to put your candidate over the top.

When counting finally resumed, there were four massive vote dumps in the middle of the night which proved decisive in some of the most critical swing states…


  • An update in Michigan listed as of 6:31AM Eastern Time on November 4th, 2020, which shows 141,258 votes for Joe Biden and 5,968 votes for Donald Trump
    An update in Wisconsin listed as 3:42AM Central Time on November 4th, 2020, which shows 143,379 votes for Joe Biden and 25,163 votes for Donald Trump
    A vote update in Georgia listed at 1:34AM Eastern Time on November 4th, 2020, which shows 136,155 votes for Joe Biden and 29,115 votes for Donald Trump
    An update in Michigan listed as of 3:50AM Eastern Time on November 4th, 2020, which shows 54,497 votes for Joe Biden and 4,718 votes for Donald Trump


In the end, Biden won Wisconsin by less than one percent, he won Pennsylvania by just over one percent, he won Georgia by less than one percent and he won Arizona by less than one percent.

If you reverse the results in those four states, President Trump would be the winner of the race.

The voting behavior in the key midwestern states was particularly suspicious. The following comes from Patrick Basham…

  • Midwestern states Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin always swing in the same direction as Ohio and Iowa, their regional peers. Ohio likewise swings with Florida. Current tallies show that, outside of a few cities, the Rust Belt swung in Trump’s direction. Yet, Biden leads in Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin because of an apparent avalanche of black votes in Detroit, Philadelphia, and Milwaukee. Biden’s ‘winning’ margin was derived almost entirely from such voters in these cities, as coincidentally his black vote spiked only in exactly the locations necessary to secure victory. He did not receive comparable levels of support among comparable demographic groups in comparable states, which is highly unusual for the presidential victor.


There are countless people that have been looking into how vote totals in the most critical swing states may have been manipulated, but the big tech companies have been doing their best to keep such information from spreading widely.

In fact, it is being reported that Facebook applied an “emergency change” to its news feed algorithm right after the election…

  • In the aftermath of the contentious presidential election, Facebook reportedly made an “emergency change” to its algorithm, which resulted in the suppression of content from “hyperpartisan” outlets.

    Employees at Facebook are now asking if the “nicer news feed” can stay in place long term, according to a Tuesday report from The New York Times.


This “nicer news feed” greatly favors mainstream news outlets such as CNN, the Washington Post and the New York Times.

The big tech companies are absolutely determined to shape how we think, and the power that they now possess is colossal.

They will determine what “truth” is allowed to be told in the years ahead, and they will continue to push our culture down a dystopian path that only leads to complete oblivion.

This election was a major turning point, and those that directed events behind the scenes are on the verge of totally getting away with it.

But this isn’t just a loss for the Republican Party. This is a loss for all Americans, because our entire system of government is crumbling right in front of our eyes.


All he needed to do was signal boost the concept and apparent occurrence of voter fraud, and now it's on everyone's mind and the evidence is plain to see without institutions dictating what we should and should not believe. He used the least amount of resources to do the most amount of damage to the enemy. Anyway you slice it, that is smart.

And while this is going on, the challenges to the "results" continue to flow.


I bet you were verklempt as fuck when Trump won the first time around. Did you and Dave hang out in the same basement for the past 4 years?
