“They were Framing the President,” to Oust Him. An Attempted Coup!!

“They were Framing the President,” to Oust Him.  An Attempted Coup!!

By Harold Pease, Ph.D.

One of the biggest stories in American history is that in 2016 the losing candidate in a presidential election race spied on the winning candidate, before the election in Trump Towers, and six months after, in the White House, in an effort to unseat the duly elected president.  This was the heart of the findings of the multi-year Durham probe presently dripping out through indictments.  In most countries, and in our own as well pre-Donald Trump era, the words treason or attempted coup would have been used in describing the above and swift justice rendered—usually by a firing squad.

A Russian Hoax has been alleged since 2016.  Sean Hannity reported almost nightly on it in 2016 but only conservatives paid any attention.  “Hillary Clinton paid for data to suggest a Donald Trump Server was communicating with a Russian bank—then promoted the false data on Twitter in 2016.”  The Trump server , a big part of the original narrative, communicating with a Russian bank, Alfa Bank, was thereafter easily debunked by the FBI, but not the spying by the Clinton campaign.  

To investigate the origins of the Russia collusion, John Durham, was appointed by then Attorney General William Barr in 2019 to investigate the origins of the probe into alleged connections between Trump's 2016 presidential campaign and Russia.  Since then he has processed through the grand jury three indictments, 1st, Kevin Clinesmith, an FBI attorney for Robert Mueller who pled guilty to altering an email during the process of acquiring a wiretap warrant on Carter Page.  2nd, Michael Sussmann, last September, for pushing their false Trump Russian collusion on to the FBI to get them to investigate while he also represented the Hillary Clinton campaign.  And 3rd, Igor Danchenko, November 4, 2021, the primary source for Christopher Steele, the former British spy who was paid by Democrats during the 2016 presidential campaign to create the fake intelligence narrative which was used by the feds between October 2016 and September 2017 to successfully apply for surveillance warrants targeting former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page to get to Trump (“Who is Igor Danchenko?” November 4, 2021).

Spying by the Clinton campaign has resurfaced as far more than alleged and prosecution’s are expected to follow.  So far all roads lead to Hillary Clinton.  The New York Post’s front page, February 15, 2022, featured Hillary hugging the Trump Towers skyscraper with an ear piece intently listening in on the private conversations held within with the heading “HILLARY THE SPY: Outrage Over Revelation that Clinton ‘paid for’ Access to Trump’s PC’s.”

Durham’s court submission last week, “alleged that a tech executive, who was supposed to be helping the government combat cyber threats, used his privileged access to Internet data — specifically, domain name system (DNS) traffic between servers — to mine contacts between Russia and facilities connected to Donald Trump. The information, Durham says, was taken out of context and distorted to suggest that Trump might be a clandestine agent of Vladimir Putin’s regime.” (“Durham’s Jaw-Dropping Revelation,” National Review, February 15, 2022.). The tech (the second Clinton campaign associate) has since been identified as Rodney Joffe, a Clinton supporter who was hoping to land a big national-security post if Hillary Clinton were elected president in 2016.

This story is big because, again, all fingers point to Hillary Clinton.  Maria Bartimoro on Fox News headlined “Durham: Clinton Campaign Paid to Infiltrate Trump Servers to Link Trump to Russia.”  US News headlined “Durham Filing Detailing Spying on Trump White House Raises National Security Implications,” by Jeff Carlson and Hans Mahncke, February 14, 2022 Updated: February 16, 2022.  New York Post, Feb. 14, headlined, “Clinton Campaign paid tech workers to dig up Trump-Russia Connection: Report.”  National Review headlined “The Media’s Blackout on Durham Revelations,” by David Harsanyi on February 14, 2022.  

Such filled the nation’s newspapers and airways in the same manner as the Titanic going down April 14, 1912 or Richard Nixon resigning the presidency of the United States August 8, 1974—a big front page story that could not be ignored by any competent news outlet.  A story that filled the news for several days that everyone would know of and talk about —certainly as big as killing Osama bin Laden, or anything happening in Afghanistan last August or Ukraine today.

But this was so only on conservative outlets.  The controlled press from Saturday to Monday had a media blackout of it all.  “ABC gave the latest Durham probe filing zero seconds of coverage, NBC zero seconds, CBS zero seconds, MSNBC zero seconds and CNN gave only 2 minutes and 20 seconds to the story.  The biggest story of our time got zero coverage also from the New York Times and the Washington Post, the two largest newspapers in the nation.  These, however, were the same media outlets that promoted the, since debunked, Russia Hoax.

The viewers of these “news” outlets, and their affiliates, got nothing—not even propaganda—no attempt to even debunk the Special Council's sources.  Deafening Silence!!  Consequently they are left ignorant.  Remember, there were hoards of reporters covering the Robert Mueller probe, promising that it would destroy Trump, instead it proved his innocence.  This is very serious because, if true, and indictments are followed by prosecutions, these news outlets become not only subject to what criminality may be involved but accomplices in the coverup of treason and the attempted coup of a duly elected president, more so if they “knowingly” participated in it.

In short, “Durham’s newest filing accuses the Hillary Clinton campaign of working with a technology firm that was collecting Internet data from Trump Tower servers, and subsequently the White House, as a means of creating an “inference” and “narrative” about Trump’s dealing with Russia. In layman’s terms, they were framing the president” (The Media’s Blackout on Durham Revelations,” by David Harsanyi, National Review, February 14, 2022).
