Unravelling the Trump-Russian Conspiracy Hoax

President Trump calls it a national disgrace, and it is, but it may also be a giant wake-up call to the country about the dangers of giant bureaucracies, toxic political partisanship, and concentrated federal power.

Those working in any capacity in the federal government are working for the American people as a whole and are not to be politically partisan in their jobs as servants to all the people.  They are not to pick a President through wild plots and machinations – the American people pick a President.  Consent of the governed, not consent of the bureaucrat, is fundamental and has been since the Mayflower Compact of 1620.

What happened?

This is what we know now but there will be more forthcoming.  Employees of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), the National Security Agency (NSA), the Department of Justice (DOJ), and the Department of State were all involved in trying to prevent the election of Donald Trump as President of the United States.  When he unexpectedly won they were involved in trying to impede his ability to perform while they worked to get him impeached and removed from office if not indicted and prosecuted for various and sundry crimes.  Elected officials worked with these employees as well as certain media and press outlets along with some of America’s closest foreign allies.

We have not had a scandal of this magnitude in our entire short history.

Somehow, a non-establishment person got the nomination as the Republican Party’s nominee for President.  Establishment Republicans were just as shocked as Democrats and some were openly hostile to his nomination and have been hostile to his Presidency.

For Democrats this was a pivotal and necessary win in order to seal some of the more questionable policies of the Obama Administration and to move America permanently to the left.  Donald Trump had to be stopped at any cost no matter what laws, rules, or ethics are broken or oaths to preserve, protect, and defend the United States Constitution dishonored.

Fabricated “facts” about the Republican nominee were produced by the political arm of a law firm hired by the Democratic National Committee and the Clinton campaign were passed on to the CIA who in turn passed them on to the FBI who in turn passed them on to certain members of Congress.  A counter-intelligence investigation was launched by the FBI against the Trump campaign with the permission of a secret court.  We do not know at this time whether a federal judge or judges were themselves compromised but permission to spy on a Presidential campaign was given.  This is July, 2016, four months before the election.  This is unheard of and extraordinary interference by executive bureaucracies and the federal judiciary in a Presidential election.

Perjury traps were set; Trump campaign personnel were unmasked by officials in the Obama administration; and the DOJ and the Department of State began leaking information to certain members of the press insinuating a Trump-Russian conspiracy.

It should have worked.  Hillary Clinton should have won the Presidency.  But just like a fortuitous fog helped George Washington escape the British at the beginning of the American Revolution an over-confident head of the FBI decided to try and appear professional and neutral and in a now-famous speech took Hillary Clinton down.  Donald Trump became President of the United States.

Plan B came out of the closet.  President Trump must be weakened to the point of ineffectiveness or impeached and removed or both.  On his way out the door President Obama signed executive orders to enhance intelligence sharing in the hopes of fanning the conspiracy flames into a raging fire.  Some Republicans fanned them as well.  It was an awkward transition.  Loyalty to the new President was scarce and advice to the new President was poor.  Jeff Sessions, the new Attorney General, was himself investigated for Russian ties, and in a panic recused himself and left his President naked before his adversaries.

A Special Prosecutor was quickly appointed to investigate President Trump and he hired only Democrats to leave no rock unturned in the effort to take down the new administration.  Using a strategy to try and appear genuine, a respected and professional person was selected by the acting Attorney General.  Unfortunately for the plotters he turned out to be a straight arrow.

We will have to see where this all leads but if further investigation is honest it is going to lead to very high levels.

The Founders, in 1787, were fully aware that this level of public corruption is possible in any system where power and money and influence meet.  This is the purpose of the Federal system they created that diffuses this corrupting power between state and local government and the federal government.  This is one of the purposes of keeping the federal government small and lean.

For the nation to recover from this most damaging of events brought on by appointed public servants every person involved improperly must be brought to justice and pay a huge price for betrayal of country.  We will be lucky if we find that no military were involved in this plot.
