There hasn't been much progress, but thousands of unsealed indictments could drop any day now...

If after 3 days I was 80% done with a large paint job you'd say the same thing because you don't see any paint. 80+% is prep.

Newly Declassified Document Indicates FBI Misled Congress on Reliability of Steele Dossier



WASHINGTON – Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham (R-South Carolina) today released a newly declassified FBI document that indicates the Bureau misled the Senate Intelligence Committee in 2018 about the Steele dossier’s Primary Sub-source and, therefore, the reliability of the Steele dossier.

“This document clearly shows that the FBI was continuing to mislead regarding the reliability of the Steele dossier. The FBI did to the Senate Intelligence Committee what the Department of Justice and FBI had previously done to the FISA Court: mischaracterize, mislead and lie. The characterizations regarding the dossier were completely out of touch with reality in terms of what the Russian sub-source actually said to the FBI.

“What does this mean? That Congress as well as the FISA Court was lied to about the reliability of the Russian sub-source. I will be asking FBI Director Wray to provide me all the details possible about how the briefing was arranged and who provided it.

“Inspector General Horowitz’s team found this briefing document. Inspector General Horowitz and his team deserve great credit for uncovering systematic fraud at Department of Justice surrounding the Carter Page FISA warrant. I’m also very appreciative of the Department of Justice’s release of the FBI document used to brief the Senate Intelligence Committee.”

The document includes talking points from the FBI’s briefing of the Senate Intelligence Committee in February 2018 and details the FBI’s assessment of the primary source of the information contained in the Steele dossier. This FBI briefing to Members of Congress occurred after the FBI had learned that the Steele dossier was unreliable in 2017. [Document]

Isn't purposefully misleading Congress under oath called perjury?

 

[solarion]

Isn't purposefully misleading Congress under oath called perjury?

One could make a case also for treason and racketeering charges. The document itself doesn't identify this seemingly mysterious "primary sub-source", though the weak sauce non-basis for the steele dossier is widely believed to have been hearsay "evidence" harvested by the FBI from idiotic alcohol enhanced comments spewed forth by George Papadopoulos and then fed back(laundered) to Chris Steele so that the douchebag traitors at the DOJ/FBI could then claim those dumb comments had some basis in reality.

The whole thing is a political witch hunt designed to attack a US presidential candidate and protect the butcher of Benghazi by means of distraction from her email scandal and to make her POTUS so that she'd be immune from prosecution...for treason.

[solarion]

Hopefully a storm. Sick to freaking death of hearing about lawful threats of retaliation against institutionalized and legitimized TRAITORS and having said traitors face zero consequences for their actions.

Yes, I know we're only 4 days out from traitor Joe's "virtual inauguration" and yes I know there are alleged attacks on 50 state capitols and the district of criminality, and yes I know that those alleged attacks are allegedly false flag traps.

This was supposed to be released a 6 to 12 months ago but the low level apparatchiks slow walked it and the appointed personnel could not do a thing about it due to the public sector union rules. Supposedly the stuff only came available when review and promotion season rolled around and the undercover political drones didn't want to be dinged or passed over.

Brass Parachutes: The Problem of the Pentagon Revolving Door

Pentagon officials captured by the contractors they oversee is skewing our spending priorities and foreign policy.

Major Findings

There were 645 instances of the top 20 defense contractors in fiscal year 2016 hiring former senior government officials, military officers, Members of Congress, and senior legislative staff as lobbyists, board members, or senior executives in 2018 (see chart below). Since some lobbyists work for multiple defense contractors, there are more instances than officials.1
Of those instances, nearly 90 percent became registered lobbyists, where the operational skill is influence-peddling.
At least 380 high-ranking Department of Defense officials and military officers shifted into the private sector to become lobbyists, board members, executives, or consultants for defense contractors.
Of the Department of Defense officials POGO tracked through the revolving door, a quarter of them (95) went to work at the Department of Defense’s top 5 contractors (Lockheed Martin, Boeing, Raytheon, General Dynamics, and Northrop Grumman).
Military officers going through the revolving door included 25 Generals, 9 Admirals, 43 Lieutenant Generals, and 23 Vice Admirals.

Former WA Health bureaucrat David Leslie Mulligan jailed for corruption



A former WA Health bureaucrat has been sentenced to 15 months in prison for corruption.

Key points:

David Mulligan accepted flights and accommodation from a contractor
The contractor then submitted inflated invoices for Mulligan's approval
Mulligan must serve at least seven and a half months in prison
District Court Judge Fiona Vernon said David Leslie Mulligan's behaviour "strikes at the heart of the community's trust in public service and the government".
Addressing the 49-year-old as he wept in the dock, she said he must have been well aware what he was doing was "corrupt and wrong".
Mulligan had pleaded guilty to nine charges of acting corruptly to gain a benefit, and one of corruptly omitting to make a record.
Between 2013 and 2015, Mulligan accepted flights, accommodation and other perks from a contractor for trips interstate and overseas.
He was working for North Metro Health Service (NMHS) at the time.
The contractor presented inflated invoices to the NMHS and Mulligan approved them.
The total benefit was $16,775 and included flights to the eastern states, and one trip to The UK.
Work component on trips 'limited'
For most of the trips, he used his annual leave and sometimes lied about why he was taking it.
His lawyer argued that five of the trips featured a "work-related component" such as touring hospitals.
But Judge Vernon said that while this might have made him feel better about what he was doing, the work component was "limited".

Prosecutor who indicted ex-Illinois speaker makes ominous warning: corruption probe not over

U.S. Attorney John Lausch, a holdover from the Trump administration leading the bribery case, says "I’ve defined our problem as a very stubborn one.”
The U.S. attorney who secured a 22-count indictment against former Illinois House Speaker Michael Madigan says there's more work to be done.

Northern District of Illinois U.S. Attorney John Lausch, a holdover from the Trump administration, stayed on after President Joe Biden took office at the behest of U.S. Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Springfield.
As other U.S. attorneys that former President Donald Trump selected were leaving their posts to make way for Biden appointees, Durbin said Lausch was involved in important investigations and should remain.

In the summer of 2020, Lausch’s office revealed a deferred prosecution agreement with utility ComEd, in which the company admitted to a bribery scheme involving several individuals and agreed to pay the government a $200 million fine. Madigan was labeled “Public Official A” in the ComEd document as the clear target of the federal corruption probe.

In Wednesday's news conference announcing the indictment of Madigan on racketeering and other charges, prosecutors alleged Madigan's political operation was a criminal enterprise that sought to keep the former speaker in power and financially benefit himself and his associates.

In announcing the indictment against Madigan Wednesday, Lausch said he will continue to be on the job as long as Biden allows.

“I was here as an assistant U.S. attorney for a number of years before I had the great fortune to come back in this job,” Lausch said. “I think we all shake our heads sometimes when we think that there’s another corruption case that’s happening. It happens with other crimes as well. And that’s why I’ve defined our problem as a very stubborn one.”

Despite Wednesday's 22-count indictment against the longtime former speaker of the Illinois House, the investigation into political corruption under the dome in Springfield – and at city halls in Chicago and elsewhere – continues, Lausch said.
He said some investigations take time and there isn’t much of a deadline other than the statute of limitation for some crimes.

“We follow the evidence where it leads,” he added. “Sometimes we get there more quickly than we think. Other times it takes us longer, and I think as you all know well, we’re pretty thorough and deliberate in this shop.”

While Madigan is the latest to face federal charges, he's far from the first.

The federal probe nabbed late former Democratic state Sen. Martin Sandoval, who pleaded guilty in early 2020 of taking bribes from red light camera vendors to effectively kill legislation regulating the industry. In a separate case, federal prosecutors arrested former Democratic state Rep. Luis Arroyo in 2019, who was charged with taking a bribe from a state senator believed to be former state Sen. Terry Link. Link was later charged with tax evasion. There's also the pending charge against state Sen. Tom Cullerton, D-Villa Park, who's accused of embezzling from a labor union. Cullerton resigned his job last week and is expected to plead guilty.

Naming Names​

BY TYLER DURDEN
MONDAY, APR 11, 2022 - 09:00 PM
Authored by James Howard Kunstler via DailyReckoning.com,
One reason American movies are so bad these days is they have forgotten how to tell a story. Stuff just happens to characters. Cause, effect and consequence no longer exist in the workshops of Hollywood.
And one might sense that these imperatives are likewise missing from what used to be known as real life in the USA, with all its stories and narratives. Stuff just happens to the people in this country now. And then sometimes, stuff un-happens.
With the Russian operation in Ukraine alarming the populace, you might have forgotten the late COVID-19 epidemic that provoked so much public hysteria and government policy overreach.
Stuff happened during those two-plus years of COVID-19, and even with Ukraine blaring from the cable news channels, COVID-19 stuff is still happening. Vaccine mandates are still in force, in New York City, for instance — except for performers and ballplayers, who are exempted now, as announced this week by Mayor Eric Adams.
If you detect any specious reasoning behind that diktat, at least you know who made it happen.

“Safe and Effective”​

But so many other things just happened with COVID-19, rather serious things, and no one has had to answer for them, certainly not Dr. Anthony Fauci, who just days ago talked up another booster shot of his obviously defective mRNA “vaccines.”
Dr. Fauci proposed that despite a raft of emerging statistics from the life insurance realm that indicate a shockingly high number of mysterious all-causes deaths for people in the prime of life. Several conditions appear to be killing them:

1) Blood clotting in the capillaries of various organs, apparently caused by the “vaccine’s” main active ingredient, spike proteins.
2) Heart inflammation (pericarditis and myocarditis).
3) A mystifying array of neurological afflictions.
4) Switched-off immune system toggles, including the cellular mechanism for preventing the growth of cancers.

This developing picture of a public health catastrophe, growing more robustly detailed by the week, has somehow not alarmed the general public, not least because the entire public health officialdom does not want them to know about it.

Names​

In fact, as averred to above, they are all still busy promoting the “vaccines” that are responsible.
Rochelle Walensky, director of the CDC, is rather well-known — though her duties appear limited to the public impersonation of a “concerned mom” — but whoever heard of Rebecca Bunnell, Ph.D., director of the CDC’s Office of Science?
Does science play any part in the emerging disaster of sharply rising all-causes deaths? It would be good to know, don’t you think? Anyone heard from Daniel Jernigan, MD, deputy CDC director for public health science and surveillance (DDPHSS)? You’d think he would be out there surveilling things.
How about Brian C. Moyer, Ph.D., director of the CDC’s National Center for Health Statistics. He would be in charge, presumably, of the VAERS system, which tabulates adverse vaccine events.
That system evidently under-reports adverse events by a shocking amount — some say only 1% are ever recorded. Why is that? Because it is a website that is so notoriously ill designed and hard to use that the CDC pledged to fix it more than 10 years ago and never got around to it.
Why is that, Dr. Moyer? Has anyone asked him? I don’t think so.

More Names​

There is the appalling and still on-going campaign to suppress COVID early-treatment off-label drugs such as ivermectin, hydroxychloroquine, fluvoxamine, etc., though the protocols have been proven highly effective in clinical practice as well as scores of internationally peer-reviewed studies.
Hundreds of thousands of Americans died because these drugs were maliciously outlawed. In many states, doctors can be punished with loss of medical licenses for using these safe and effective drugs, or even talking them up.
Who exactly in public health was responsible for this suppression? Who gave the orders for it? Or did it just happen? Was it Francis Collins, recently retired director of the National Institutes for Health (NIH)? He must have at least approved the policy.
Stephen M. Hahn, MD, who was commissioner of the Food and Drug Administration from December 2019 to January 2021, the heart of the COVID event timeline? Janet Woodcock, who was acting commissioner from January 2021 to February 2022 — and was previously the longtime chief of the Center for Drug Evaluation and Research?
Or the current chief of that outfit, one Patrizia Cavazzoni, MD? Or Jacqueline A. O’Shaughnessy, Ph.D., the FDA’s acting chief scientist? Was outlawing early treatment in their purviews? Did they even know about it? How could they not?

Even More Names​

Consider another killer on the scene: the drug remdesivir, a Dr. Fauci production, originally for hepatitis C, manufactured by Gilead Sciences. U.S. public health has anointed remdesivir the standard of practice for patients severely ill with Stage 2 inflammatory COVID in the ICUs all over America.
It is well-known that remdesivir destroys kidney function in as little as five days. This supposed antiviral agent is being used after the high-viral-load Stage 1 phase of COVID is over. How many ICU patients have been killed by remdesivir?
Why not ask Judith A McMeekin, Pharm.D, the FDA’s associate commissioner for regulatory affairs? Or Sam Posner, acting director for the National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases? Or Rima F. Khabbaz, MD, director of the National Center for Emerging and Zoonotic Infectious Diseases?
Or Debra Houry, MD, acting principal deputy director of the CDC and, since 2014, director of the Center for Injury Prevention and Control? Or the CDC’s chief medical officer, Mitchell Wolfe, MD? Or Nathaniel Smith, MD, CDC’s deputy director of public health service and implementation? Or maybe Jay C. Butler, deputy CDC director for infectious dseases?
You see, there are real people in high places with exalted credentials who must in some way be responsible for the epic blunders committed during the COVID-19 saga. Or else they allowed these actions to happen on purpose.
Will any actual persons answer for any of this?

I’m Not Done Yet​

Oh, by the way, perhaps you noticed the ruckus over University of Pennsylvania transgender swimmer Lia Thomas (born William Thomas) recently winning the Women’s 500-yard freestyle race in the NCAA nationals.
How did it happen that the 6’4” Thomas, oddly still in possession of normal male genitalia, got permission to compete against, shall we say, natural-born women?
You can ask Mark Emmert, the NCAA president, or Wendell E. Pritchett, president of the University of Pennsylvania, or Alanna W. Shanahan, Penn director of athletics, or Lauren C. Procopio, assistant director for men’s/women’s Swimming.
You see, there are real people behind all these disorders of our national life. Many more besides just the notorious Dr. Fauci… and many more work under all these directors of this and that.
What have they done? Or did stuff just happen?

Former BLM official sentenced to prison for bribery scheme

A former Bureau of Reclamation official was sentenced to federal prison on Monday for tax fraud and accepting bribes.

www.reviewjournal.com

"Nine of Leavitt’s friends and former coworkers addressed the judge on Monday, asking for leniency. Defense attorneys also asked for a lower sentence so Leavitt could continue caring for his wife’s health problems."

“The worst thing you can lose is your reputation, and he’s lost that,” defense attorney Paul Padda said."

"Leavitt cried while speaking to the judge for nearly 20 minutes during the hearing. He apologized multiple times, and said he “made a mistake.” "

“I changed my plea to guilty because I am,” Leavitt said. “When I step back and look at the facts of the matter, I am.”

"The judge, however, told Leavitt that he made “decisions, not mistakes.” Gordon noted that Leavitt used some of the bribery money to purchase a luxury car and travel to Germany."

“You were greedy and had to devise schemes to get bribes and steal from the government by tax fraud,” the judge said."

"The judge on Monday also ordered Leavitt to spend three years on supervised release after his prison sentence, during which he will have to complete 100 hours of community service. He will also be required to pay about $704,000 in restitution."
