The Declassified Russian Hacking “Intelligence” Report Is Devoid of Any Evidence and Apparently Based on Previous Lies (archive)

(archived from Saturday, January 7, 2017)

by Scott Creighton

Yesterday (Friday Jan. 6th 2017) around 1pm, the Department of National Intelligence released their declassified report (PDF) on the Russian hacking story or the Russian “influence” story that has been taking shape here in the States surrounding Hillary Clinton’s crash and burn presidential campaign of 2016. The Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA)

At about the same time, a man got off a plane in Florida and took a gun from his checked bag and opened fire on people in the baggage claim area of an airport, emptying 3 clips before lying down on the ground and waiting to be arrested. That man claimed earlier that the CIA had been trying to force him to watch “ISIS” videos.

Each and every page of the declassified report contains in the top header an official disclaimer of sorts which reads:

“This report is a declassified version of a highly classified assessment; its conclusions are identical to those in the highly classified assessment but this version does not include the full supporting information on key elements of the influence campaign.”

Key here is the fact that the report contains no facts. None. Zip. Zilch. No evidence reported in the 'report' whatsoever.

Just Plain Stupid: The Russia/Trump/Hookers/Golden Shower Blackmail Story (archive)

(archived from Jan 11 2017)

And speaking of “fake news”… CNN has some breaking this morning.

Fake news outlet CNN is reporting on this story as if it is the gospel truth and they apparently refuse to link their readers/viewers to the actual 35-page document so folks can judge it for themselves. There’s good reason for that. It’s ridiculous. Here is a link to the entire 35-page “report” (PDF)

Here’s the story in a nutshell: an organization of Trump rivals in the primary contest last year hired some former British MI-6 liar to dig up some dirt on Donald Trump during the run-up to the election. The guy cobbled together some bullshit fabrications about Russia cultivating Trump for the past 5 years while simultaneously collecting sex videos of him and some hookers peeing on a bed the Obamas once slept in for blackmail purposes. The “report” was so stupid and devoid of actual facts, the group shelved the “report”. In their desperation toward the end, the Hillary team bought the rights to it, but again, because it was so stupid and sophomoric sounding, even they refused to use it.

CNN calls this “breaking news” but in fact, it came out on Oct. 31st, 2016 when David Corn of Mother Jones covered the stupid story in an attempt to help usher Killary into the White House. They also refused to publish the document because, as they said, it was “completely unsubstantiated” which translates to “if folks look at it they will immediately recognize it as either a hoax or the work of an out of work desperate man looking for a paycheck”

No. Putin Did Not Try to Thwart Hillary’s Candidacy Like She Did to Him in 2012. He Didn’t Have To (archive)

Pussy Riot™  mission statement: When the world is being neoliberalized as fast as possible and the masters of the universe demand tribute from those seeking a place at the table, no effort to assist in that endeavor , no matter how sophomoric or insipid, no matter how ridiculous, no matter how contrived, shall go unrewarded. And Pussy Riot™ will be there to cash in

Not that long ago President Obama said that Russia and President Putin had tried to influence the outcome of our election process and that it was “unacceptable” behavior for a nation to attempt to influence the democratic process of other nations. Forget for a second that his evidence was so laughable that the Department of Homeland Security, the agency that cobbled it together, posted a disclaimer on the first page of the report that said it didn’t stand by a single shred of “proof” in it’s own report:

“this report is provided “as is” for informational purposes only. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) does not provide any warranties of any kind regarding any information contained within.”

Let’s also forget for a moment the troubling rise of the New McCarthyism in America and the lynch-mob mentality that goes along with it.

Russia did not attempt to influence our election. They did not “hack” the DNC, Hillary Clinton’s illegal private email server nor the email account of the perpetually corrupt John Podesta. Even if they did, which they didn’t, all they did was expose the truth about these three deeply tainted entities. No one has disputed the authenticity of the leaks. They stand as an accurate representation of the level of corruption that exists in the fake left that is the unDemocratic Party of America these days. This is a footnote that gets lost in the discussion far too often.

Which leads me to ask one simple question: since when is it considered unacceptable behavior to expose the truth about corruption at the highest ranks in the American political system?

Key here is the fact that the report contains no facts. None. Zip. Zilch. No evidence reported in the report whatsoever.

Also key is the word “assessment” and in the beginning of the declassified report, they take the time to explain that term:

“When Intelligence Community analysts use words such as “we assess” or “we judge,” they are conveying an analytic assessment or judgment. Some analytic judgments are based directly on collected information; others rest on previous judgments, which serve as building blocks in rigorous analysis“

“(O)thers rest on previous judgments”. Got that? No evidence reported in this report and they tell you right off the bat that in all likelihood, this “assessment” is based on “previous” assessment, which as we all know, were bullshit. “Grizzly steppe” anyone?

Epstein Case: Intelligence Industry Plays the Nuclear Option on Trump

In fear of an investigation into their efforts to thwart our democratic process in 2016, the intelligence community has decided to play their trump card. Pardon the pun. In Feb. they got a judge to toss plea deal for Epstein that had been on the books since 2008. No one suddenly found Jesus. The Mueller investigation fizzled and impeachment was off the table. There are no coincidences in politics. This is their nuclear option. Pure and simple.

Leaked Douma Report Proves Chemical Attack was Staged As Amy Goodman Spews Debunked Lies

As an OPCW report is leaked that makes it clear the Douma chemical attack was completely staged last year, Amy Goodman dusts off some debunked "Syrian prison torture" story to distract her antiwar audience from the truth... once again. She is about as shameful as it gets. She, like the New York Times and John Bolton alike, is nothing more than a peddler of augmented reality. Reality augmented with lies and FAKE NEWS.

Bill Hicks Teaches Us a Lesson About RussiaGate

Three part plan for RussiaGate: 1. keep populist sounding surprise president in line 2. distract the American people from everything else going on and 3.

Tucker Carlson ALMOST Gets it When it Comes to RussiaGate

by Scott Creighton

For how many years have I been saying this whole RussiaGate thing was about providing Trump left-cover for doing the neoliberal things the establishment wanted and to pressure him into doing those things as the Sword of Damocles hung over his head?

This was Tucker Carlson last night. He didn't lead with this. Perhaps he should have. Because this is the method behind the madness of RussiaGate.

And while you think it might be a failure on the part of the establishment. While Trump supporters dance in the streets, I'm here to tell you, your celebration is a little hollow.

Tucker will tell you. And I will tell you.

The Mueller Investigation is Over: What Did We Learn from this Coercion Campaign

Mueller was never about looking into potential Russia 'Collusion'. It was about enacting a measure of control on a president who campaigned on a promise to look after the interests of the 99% as opposed to the 1%. A president who promised to end our imperialist adventurism abroad. A president insulted the Deep State and called them what they were: fascists.

No matter what he has become since, the reality is, Mueller's efforts have always been about coercion and some may call it criminal coercion. I would. The question now is... where will they go now in order to keep shackles on the feet of a president whose supporters defied the odds and beat the establishment's pick.
