How the FBI and CIA Restarted the Cold War to Protect Themselves<\/a><\/h3>\n

On December 29, 2016, the Obama Administration \u2013 with three weeks remaining in its term \u2013 issued harsh sanctions against Russia over supposed election interference. \u00a0Two compounds in the United States were closed and 35 Russian diplomats were ordered to leave the country.<\/p>\n

Russia responded by calling the actions \u201cCold War d\u00e9j\u00e0 vu.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the two years that have elapsed since, it has been learned that the \u201cintelligence\u201d that formed the basis for the sanctions was beyond dubious.<\/p>\n

A single unverified \u201cdossier\u201d compiled by an ex-British spy with no discernable connections to Russia was shopped to FISA judges and the media as something real.<\/p>\n

The dossier was opposition research by the Hillary Clinton campaign, a fact that was not disclosed and actively hidden by off-the-book transactions through the law firm Perkins Coie.<\/p>\n

As a dog that chases its tail, the fake dossier was being used to cause the investigation which itself lent credibility to the notion of Russian interference.<\/p>\n

The FBI and CIA thumbed the eye of an armed nuclear state based on false intelligence. \u00a0Why?<\/p>\n

The answer is now obvious: to cover up their own election year shenanigans they thought would remain forever hidden in the inevitable Hillary Clinton victory.<\/p>\n

Russian collusion had first come to the electorate\u2019s attention in July. \u00a0The DNC had lost a cache of its emails either to a phishing scheme or to a hacker. \u00a0The emails showed the Clinton campaign and the DNC conspiring to fix primaries against Bernie Sanders.<\/p>\n

The outcry among Sanders supporters was sufficiently loud that DNC chairperson Debbie Wasserman Schultz resigned on the eve of the democratic convention.<\/p>\n

It was a huge scandal. \u00a0To squelch it for their expected future boss Hillary Clinton, the FBI and CIA constructed a Rube Goldberg machine of \u201cRussian collusion\u201d to blame Trump.<\/p>\n
