Your goose is cooked, Mr. Trump

What will it take for you to smell the coffee?

In case you missed it Mr. President-elect,

here are eight ways the Intelligence Community Assessment  

is letting you know gently that the plot is known.

Do right, Mr. Trump -  

​

One: Manafort, Page and Gates

​

Paul Manafort, Carter Page and Rick Gates are in cahoots with Russia – they appear to be the link in the most serious political conspiracy our nation has ever imagined  – and the CIA wants to make it clear to the Trump team that Intelligence has the goods. When Manafort, Gates and Page together joined the Trump campaign, Russia turned on the spigot for Trump and the full force of Russia's propaganda warfare capabilities were ordered to action. March, 2016 is the month to watch.

 

The report says ‘Vladimir Putin ordered an influence campaign in 2016.’ Actions and messaging were uncannily similar and symbiotic between the Trump Camp and Russian Intelligence. Manafort joined Trump in March 2016 (widely reported) and soon thereafter took over as campaign manager. (1) For about a decade prior to this he had worked for pro-Russian Ukrainian strong man Viktor Yanukovych(2) ; this put Trump’s presidential campaign manager in direct, constant contact with Russian intelligence as he organized dirty elections that favored Russia.

 

Here’s a bullet point from the report, not mentioning Manafort but Manafort had been a Russian asset they had invested in for years in the former Soviet States (Ukraine).

​

* Moscow’s campaign aimed at the US election

reflected years of investment in its capabilities,

which Moscow has honed in the former Soviet

states.

 

Check out Manafort’s Wiki page which is, um, noticeably light on recent history. (3) Manafort has worked for some of the nastiest tyrants in the world, frequently handling dirty elections.

Soon after Mr. Manafort joined the Trump Campaign, there were numerous thefts of private electronic communications. Note the use of March, 2016. Here’s the relevant quote, in full, from the report:

 

 

The General Staff Main Intelligence Directorate

(GRU) probably began cyber operations aimed

at the US election by March 2016. We assess

that the GRU operations resulted in the

compromise of the personal e-mail accounts of

Democratic Party officials and political figures.

By May, the GRU had exfiltrated large volumes

of data from the DNC.

 

Mr. Manafort and Carter Page joined the campaign in March 2016. From the intel report, as follows:

 

Starting in March 2016, Russian Government–

linked actors began openly supporting

President-elect Trump’s candidacy

​

Mr. Page had been working suspiciously close to shady Russian energy people. It looks shady at a glance; Julia Ioffe’s article shows that it is more suspicious than even first glance – it’s a great piece (4).

 

Around the time of Julia Ioffe’s article, the FBI showed up asking questions about Carter Page’s July 2016 trip to Russia and the secret contacts and conversations that Mr. Page had in Moscow(5). This trip and alleged secret meetings happened just before the Republican National Convention; at the convention Manafort and Page twisted Republican arms and forced a radical deviation from Republican values - they changed  the official party policy to favor Russia at the expense of our ally Ukraine(6).

 

Mr. Page bowed out quietly in September(8) and wasn’t seen too much until he showed back up in Moscow in early December giving anti-American speeches to propaganda mills like Sputnik (7). This visit was simultaneous to Trump solidifying his cabinet choices. Carter Page’s visits to Moscow add an element of interest to Mr. Trump’s ‘odd’ line outside his palace in Florida on New Year’s Eve, - "You know, if you have something really important, write it out and have it delivered by courier, the old-fashioned way," he said. "Because I'll tell you what: No computer is safe."

 

 

Page was forced out due to Russian contacts that alarmed the FBI in September. Paul Manafort left official duties in August (9) when $12.7 million unreported payments(10) for Mr. Manafort showed up in a the ledger of New Horizons political party – the pro-Russian Ukrainian party funded by Russian intelligence. While he ‘left’ the campaign, he still lives in Trump Tower and keeps an office there; as late as last month he, wink nod, said he didn’t have an ‘official’ role(11). It was reported around 10-31-2016 that an FBI investigation had been started on Mr. Manafort (12) and there has been near silence about him or from him since.

 

The FBI, CIA, DNI and NSA (America’s tip top men, all of them) delivered the clear message that they knew the deal.

TWO: Gen Michael Flynn is in bed

with America’s enemy.

​

Here’s the simple logic and why it’s deadly clear what the intelligence branches think

 

The Intelligence Community Assessment  includes a section called ‘Annex A’ which details how RT (formerly Russia Today) is a disinformation weapon of a hostile nation engaged in harming the United States.  Below are a number of quotes from the ’Annex A’ section.

 

The Annex makes it damn clear that RT is an active weapon being used by a hostile foreign power to harm the United States (see quotes). The ‘Annex A’ was made available December 11, 2012 – meaning it’s four or so years old which seems kind of queer to include a previously released four-year-old document in a breath-holding thriller of a release, right? I thought so too until this date was compared to the time Gen Flynn was the director of the Defense Intelligence Agency (1)(2)(July 24, 2012~August 7, 2014); DIA is the the umbrella and boss of all the defense intelligence agencies – Gen Flynn was a big banana and would have had a major part of the release of the document from 2012.

 

By virtue of his position, General Flynn would have been intimately familiar with the content of Annex A, which outlines Russia’s intrusions into America using the info-weapon RT. This document fingers RT as a hostile player. Knowing this very clearly, Gen Flynn goes on the payroll of RT(3)(4) – remember, RT is Russia Today, the main propaganda weapon of Russian intelligence. The report makes it damn clear that Mr. Flynn knew that RT is a weapon firing non-stop at the United States. After being crystal clear about RT’s hostile, dangerous nature Gen Flynn went to work for this enemy of our nation. By including this ‘Annex A,’ which was released under Gen Flynn’s guidance, the four most serious and dangerous men in our country went to Trump Tower with a clear message.(6)

The authors of the report are making their opinion damn clear - Gen. Flynn is, um, what can it be called when one gives aid and comfort to the enemy? Gen Flynn’s ‘Annex A’ specifically references the word ‘warfare.’ The intelligence community wants to make sure you know. Flynn alarmed even Fox News(5).

 

Following are quotes from the ‘Annex A’ section of the intelligence assessment.

 

The quotes are used to demonstrate that it was known to the intelligence community that RT is a hostile weapon.

​

Russia -- Kremlin's TV Seeks To Influence Politics, Fuel Discontent in US

 

The channel portrayed the US

electoral process as undemocratic and featured calls by US protesters for the public to rise up and "take

this government back."

​

From August to November 2012, RT ran

numerous reports on alleged US election

fraud and voting machine vulnerabilities,

contending that US election results cannot

be trusted and do not reflect the popular

will.

​

Simonyan has characterized RT's coverage of

the Occupy Wall Street movement as

"information warfare" that is aimed at

promoting popular dissatisfaction with the US

Government

​

RT Conducts Strategic Messaging for Russian Government

​

RT's criticism of the US election was the latest facet of its broader and longer-standing anti-US messaging

​

likely aimed at undermining viewers' trust in US democratic procedures and undercutting US criticism of

Russia's political system.

​

RT is a leading media voice opposing

Western intervention in the Syrian conflict

and blaming the West for waging

"information wars" against the Syrian

Government (RT, 10 October-9 November).

 

RT Leadership Closely Tied to, Controlled by Kremlin

RT Editor in Chief Margarita Simonyan has close ties to top Russian Government officials, especially

Presidential Administration Deputy Chief of Staff Aleksey Gromov, who reportedly manages political TV

coverage in Russia and is one of the founders of RT.

 THREE: Clear Words of Warning

​

Mr. Trump, they know. They have the goods and you will be outed until you do right! Check out the following paragraph copied directly from the report. They could be talking about any random sort of businessman, or maybe just a random head of state? Or, are they saying that there are beans and that those beans will be spilled? This is a firm finger pointed directly at Mr. Trump. From the first page of the report:

​

Putin has had many positive experiences

working with Western political leaders whose

business interests made them more disposed

to deal with Russia, such as former Italian

Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi and former

German Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder.

 

 

 

 

Four: What does the following mean?

 

In the 1970s, the KGB recruited a Democratic

Party activist who reported information about

then-presidential hopeful Jimmy Carter’s

campaign and foreign policy plans, according

to a former KGB archivist.

 

Manafort and Roger Stone had been rightwing dirty operators in the 70’s. Intel is saying that there is a mole, and I believe they are saying that this person(s)’s identity is known. Clear communication about something specific is meant. Stealing information and using it to hurt an opponent is exactly the kind of dirty work Stone and Manafort et al have been doing for decades, going back to the 70’s. (1)(2)

Five: The Danger

​

The intelligence chiefs want to be very clear about what is at stake. We are at war. The Russians appear to be about to install their chosen candidate into the White House. Russia is not a friend - they are not a friend to the United States or to democracy. They oppose the freedoms many take for granted. By 'liberal democratic order' they mean our way of life.

​

‘In trying to influence the US election, we assess

the Kremlin sought to advance its longstanding

desire to undermine the US-led liberal

democratic order

​

SIX: The Requirement to Act

 

Our leaders present patriots a dark choice – either resist, or allow liberal democratic society (ie, Western Civilization with things like free speech and democracy) to be prey for Russia and any other authoritarian that wishes to enslave us. What does this line say to you? Patriots and small ‘d’ democrats are left with little choice; we are already at war and at risk is our way of life and values – remember that this is what they intend to destroy – our values, beliefs and faith in who we are as Americans and free persons.

 

Mr. Trump, you know what those gentlemen came to convey; please make this easy on yourself and on our country - do right!

​

We assess Moscow will apply lessons learned from its Putin-ordered campaign aimed at the US

presidential election to future influence efforts worldwide, including against US allies and their

election processes.

 

Seven: More disclosures to follow, Mr. Trump

​

The report begins with a clear warning, it seems. There have been rumors floated that President Obama will release ever more information until the threat and attack are addressed. This line says to Mr. Trump –

​

 

'New information continues to emerge,

providing increased insight into Russian activities'

 

 

Eight: No One Is Safe, Not You or Your Party

​

The Intel report makes it clear that just because it is Democrats this time, that it will be whoever is vulnerable next time. The Russians have penetrated communication of both parties (p2). Page five has the following:

 

Immediately after Election Day, we assess Russian

intelligence began a spearphishing campaign

targeting US Government employees and

individuals associated with US think tanks and

NGOs in national security, defense, and foreign

policy fields. This campaign could provide material

for future influence efforts as well as foreign

intelligence collection on the incoming

administration’s goals and plans.

 

A final, Crucial Message to Patriots in Congress

 

Ominously, one line makes it clear that the protectors or the nation, our judicial system, cannot allow this Russian operation to continue unchecked. If what the Intelligence Services seem to be saying is true, it cannot be allowed by US law enforcement for Mr. Trump to have power. This next line is why there cannot be smooth harmony moving into and through a Trump presidency. With a pliant stooge in the White House, horror cannot imagine the capabilities Russia will be able to develop. Think about this…

 

 

We assess Russian intelligence services will

continue to develop capabilities to provide Putin

with options to use against the United States
