The 2016 Soft Coup Unraveling (starring Gina Haspel)
[AE] The Coup Against Trump because he was anti-war and "not one of us" is unraveling deeper and deeper corruption which is leading right to Gina Haspel who is the Director of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). They have contrived fake news and used it to go after everyone around Trump to disrupt his administration. Flynn is just the tip of the iceberg. The FBI is prohibited to penetrate and subvert any presidential campaign. Executive Order 12333, Section 2.9, "Undisclosed Participation in Organizations in the United States." This expressly prohibits in very plain language any sort of intervention that arose from the U.S. Army Counterintelligence penetrating Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) to aid the FBI during the 1960s. Because of this prohibition, they viewed this as only prohibiting domestic intervention. That legal prohibition is why the FBI felt the need to manufacture a "foreign counterintelligence threat" in the UK and then "import" the investigation back into the United States.

However, this goes even further. Since the Steele dossier was paid for by Hillary, and the entire approval of investigating the Trump campaign in 2016 came implicitly from Obama and Biden, the corruption involving the infiltration of the 2016 Presidential Campaign was in itself a Soft Coup. Gina Haspel was the head of the London office of the CIA where everything was organized. The FBI needed to fabricate a foreign counterintelligence "event" in order to pretend this operation was legal. It is now Haspel who is refusing to declassify RussiaGate papers because it was her branch in the UK that was operationally the "friendliest" office to pull it off this entire coup. Haspel was deeply involved which runs the risk of this ever rising to the level of treason.

Sen. John McCain’s role in this coup explains a lot as to why he said he did not want Trump to speak at his funeral. It was McCain who handed the Steele dossier involving President Donald Trump were revealed in recently unsealed court filings. McCain previously had acknowledged getting a copy of the dossier, which was a compilation of memos written by former British spy Christopher Steele, and delivering it to then-FBI Director James Comey. However, the explosive dossier contained false accusations claiming the Russians had compromising information on Trump, which Comey is still trying to use publicly advising people to vote for Biden.

It was David Kramer who is involved with the McCain Institute for International Leadership which should be renamed the Institute for Soft Coups. Kramer was deposed in December 2017 as part of a legal battle waged by a Russian businessman Aleksej Gubarev over BuzzFeed’s publication of the dossier. The judge for the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida unsealed the records adding even more interesting aspects to this Soft Coup.

This election stands for a lot more than just who will be president. If President Trump is reelected, this might very well begin to DRAIN THE SWAMP. A victory for Biden would guarantee we will never hear another word about this Soft Coup. There is a lot at stake in this election that is so far beyond just the personality of the president.

#1 Well, he appointed her - did he expect gratitude?

#2 In fairness, Candidate Trump could have not possibly known the depth and breadth of this treachery. It is only years later that the pieces can actually be assembled and new pieces appear to be surfacing on a weekly basis.

When (now silent) senior Intelligence Community officials, both current and former, came out en masse against the 'Orange Man' in the early days of his presidency and campaign monitoring scandal, one had to know that something was dreadfully amiss.

Career employee Haspel's loyalties are to the organization, her former boss John Brennan, and the mission, not to an uncooperative political office holder like Donald Trump. Once again, it's all about power and control. They have it and intend to keep it. They are the Deep State.

#3 Salient portions of the Gatestone link:

The FBI is not allowed to penetrate and subvert a presidential campaign. Executive Order 12333, Section 2.9, "Undisclosed Participation in Organizations in the United States," prohibits it in plain language. Historically, the prohibition is a consequence of U.S. Army Counterintelligence penetrating Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) at the behest of the FBI during the 1960s -- among other abuses of power and authority. That legal prohibition is the reason the FBI felt the need to manufacture a "foreign counterintelligence threat" in the UK and then "import" the investigation back into the United States.

The FBI plotters needed to establish a foreign counterintelligence "event" to run their operation. The UK was the easiest and operationally safest/friendliest place to pull it off, especially with Stefan Halper's connections to Cambridge. Haspel was clearly fully informed and had "coordinated" the operation. She also enjoyed cordial relationships with MI6 and GCHQ. Now we (largely, but imperfectly) know what transpired. Halper under oath, in public, would fill in a lot of blanks. Gina Haspel, under the same circumstances and conditions, might just complete the puzzle. Should President Trump be reelected, it might just happen. A President Biden guarantees we will never hear another syllable of the rest of the story.

#4 the Deep State learned a hard lesson in 1963: the outright assassination of a President is too messy and outrageous to the American people.

Instead, they have learned that character assassination is the way forward for them in their quest for power.

#5 You'll notice that the powerful *always* use this tactic. They dig around in your background, find something, doesn't matter what it is, and smear you with it.

They don't engage with ideas, they just use character assassination. It's amazing how many people who oppose them turn out to be horrible - an amazing coincidence. When you see this, you can't un-see it.

#6 Haspel raised questions in my mind because of her closeness to Brennan. Wray is another roadblock more than an appointment. If swamp-draining is your objective, I guess you wait for these people to eventually reveal themselves. Then you roll them up and take appropriate actions. The coup d etat cover-up always gets you.
