4:05 PM ET - Jason Chaffetz, former Congressman and Fox News Contributor, and author of the upcoming book the Deep State out on September 18th, is all too familiar with the RINO party we have in place, that is doing everything it can to stonewall the President. Chaffetz has been one of the few voices leading the charge of information to get awareness on the issues surrounding the Russia probe, the security clearances of previous Obama intelligence officials and why Hillary is still not wearing an orange jumpsuit despite all that we know. Here is a piece from Chaffetz’s recent op-ed on the Deep State:
As Chairman of the House Oversight Committee, Chaffetz was the tip of the spear challenging the Deep State and trying to hold them accountable. He and his colleagues took on the powerful forces at the IRS, the EPA, the DOJ, the Department of State, and more. The deeper he dove in, the more shocking he found the brazen approach by the power brokers. The balance of power has shifted. The Deep State has gotten used to operating anonymously and without consequence. This is a problem bigger than we can even imagine and getting worse. Unless we do something dramatic to wrest back control, we risk losing the ability to successfully challenge wrongdoing by the most powerful bureaucracy in the world.
4:30 PM ET - Monica Crowley, a senior fellow at the London Center for Policy Research, based at King’s College in New York City, which examines national security, energy, risk-analysis and other public policy issues, is asking the tough questions about the Russia probe. The MSM is in an uproar about President Trump’s meeting with world leaders that might not be in keeping with American diplomacy. But- President Trump has a strategy to keep communication lines open and is not concerned with the left’s short-term memory with regard to their own dealings with foreign leaders:
Long before the 2016 election, when Donald Trump was a mere private citizen, Russia was engaged in widespread cyber-aggression against the United States. Moscow ratcheted up those attacks during the campaign. And yet, despite knowledge of the ongoing cyber warfare, the president at the time, Barack Obama, and his intelligence chiefs — John Brennan at the CIA, James Clapper at National Intelligence, James Comey and his predecessor, Robert Mueller, at the FBI — reportedly didn’t lift a finger to stop it.
Why? Because the Obama administration was obsessed with protecting its bigger agenda: namely, closing and implementing the Iran nuclear deal and trying to save their collapsed Russian “reset.” Calling Russia on its malign cyber activity would have imperiled both initiatives, so Obama and his Intel team apparently chose to ignore it, even as it escalated.
