"Ukraine Aid" defense funding is a lie. It's "Seize Eurasia" offense funds. As long as "Seize Eurasia" is Blob policy, it will be trillions to Ukraine & doom to all who oppose.

Trump was impeached over Ukraine military "aid" 3 yrs before 2022's war. This is what FISA is about👇

CNN ran a tearful story yesterday headlined, “Federal judge indefinitely postpones Trump classified documents trial.” ...

But the issue of FBI evidence tampering might have been the most interesting out of a raft of very interesting Trump team issues. ...

The photo — unimaginably leaked by the DOJ — was one of the pictures allegedly taken by the FBI during the Mar-a-Lago raid. Many observers, including me, opined it looked like FBI drama queens had deliberately staged the documents, dramatically spreading them out on the floor, intending to manufacture a media picture for later leaking.

Either way, that picture did the job. On August 31, 2022, for example, Washington Post fact checker Philip Bump explained to readers that the “question of whether Trump had classified material with him at his Mar-a-Lago resort has captured the public’s attention. The photo published by the government appears to answer that question quite affirmatively.”

It turns out those of us who smelled an FBI rat were right, as the government has recently been reluctantly forced to admit. At least, we were right that the documents were not originally found on Trump’s office floor. Rather, they were neatly stored in secured bankers’ boxes. The FBI altered the evidence by throwing it all over the floor helter-skelter, putting stupid tape measures under it to look official, and adding a silly evidence tag (“2A”), like they were marking the location where the fatal bullet casing was found.

But it turns out it was so much worse. Thanks to heroic work by Trump’s lawyers, and following several stern orders from Judge Cannon forcing the government to respond to basic discovery requests, we’ve now learned that the documents in the picture aren’t even the documents in the picture.

What I mean is, the FBI has now admitted that the documents seen splayed on the floor are dummies, props. At the time the picture was taken, the original classified documents had already been secured and removed. So the FBI took some other random papers and — get this — put classified cover sheets on them and then posed those dummy documents on the floor. Picture time.

Not only weren’t the documents found on the floor, and not only weren’t the documents in the picture the actual documents, but the official-looking classified document cover sheets as seen in the photo were totally fake. There were no classified cover sheets on any of the original documents. It was all made up. ...

So the government now faces two new, potentially fatal problems: the evidence tampering (or at least, evidence negligence), and lying to the court. And the CNN article mentioned, this is just one of the many complex and potentially novel issues now confronting the government’s case.

In other words the FBI fabricated the evidence against Trump.

I'm watching "Whitey: United States of America vs James J. Bulger", a 2014 documentary.

Holy shit is the FBI corrupt, worse than I though. The prosecutor of a mafia case in Boston was worried about the mafia getting back at him. Whitey Bulger offered to protect him in exchange for never being prosecuted. Officially, Bulger was an FBI informant, and that's supposedly why he was allowed to commit violent crime for 20 years, but the documentary makes the case that he was not an informant at all. He had simply corrupted the FBI itself, first by protecting this prosecutor in exchange for immunity. He also claims to have simply paid FBI agents to leave him alone, using the proceeds from his crimes.

Whitey also had a childhood friend at the FBI, James Connolly, who would pass him info. So after one of Whitey's murders, a witness was going to come forward to testify against Whitey. The FBI first refused the witness entry into the witness protection program, and second, Connolly tipped of Whitey with the witness's name. So Bulger killed the witness and got away with it, with FBI help.

And I'm only halfway through the show.

Lol, to make Bulger look like an informant, the FBI would claim that they had information from him when they went to get warrants for searches. It was convenient for getting warrants, and it helped bolster the fiction that Bulger was an informant.

But now that it's clear tons of warrants were falsified with fake "info" from Bulger, a lot of convictions could be overturned. Given that the documentary is 10 years old, maybe some were.

Also, the FBI is afraid of liability for causing the deaths of various people by tipping off organized crime about whom they might want to get rid of.

Ah, the FBI did have to pay out $20M total to relatives of those killed while they were letting him murder people.

Whitey Bulger

For once I'm going to be coy, find out who Whitey Bulger's brother was.

You have no comprehension how much I hate the FIB. Anybody that works for them is incomprehensibly ignorant, or evil.

Oh hell, I can't help show off my knowledge:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Bulger

When I say the government is a criminal syndicate, I'm not being the least bit melodramatic. Did "the documentary" mention his brother, the congressman?

Yes, I knew about his brother, and the documentary mentioned it.

Patrick says

Yes, I knew about his brother, and the documentary mentioned it.

I believe Robert Mueller was one of Whitey Bulger's handlers.

If people understood just how absolutely corrupt the FBI is. It's easily the most corrupt organization in the US and CIA is number 2

Did any FBI persons go to jail for that? After all, a human had to make those decisions. Giving out $20 million of taxpayer money is no deterrence or justice to the crooks.

A Federal Bureau of Investigation official recently urged employees to "look for ways" to conduct warrantless surveillance on US residents, an internal email obtained by Wired shows. FBI Deputy Director Paul Abbate's email was reportedly sent on April 20, the same day President Biden signed a bill that was criticized as a major expansion of warrantless surveillance under Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA).
