Former CIA engineer who gave Wikileaks "Vault 7" secrets, sentenced to 40 years

Courtroom sketch by Joshua Schulte at March 4, 2020 jury deliberations in NYC

Note that some of what is written here is meant as sarcasm, snark, and my opinion about the guy. It should be easily recognizable to those of you who read Brain Flushings.

Joshua Schulte, 35, is a former CIA software engineer who provided Wikileaks with a treasure trove of stolen CIA secrets that was released to the public in 2017. It is described as the biggest theft of classified information in CIA history. 

He was sentenced in Manhattan federal court on Thursday and will serve only 40 years in prison.

But along with the classified information, Schulte was also found to be in possession of child sexual abuse images and videos, making him not only a traitor, but a pile of human garbage. 

"We will likely never know the full extent of the damage, but I have no doubt it was massive," Judge Jesse M. Furman said as he announced the sentence.

The so-called Vault 7 leak exposed how the CIA hacked Apple and Android smartphones in overseas spying operations, and efforts to turn internet-connected televisions into listening devices. 

Prior to his arrest, Schulte had helped create the hacking tools as a coder at the agency's headquarters in Langley, Virginia. So he learned to code but perhaps should have been a coal miner and would have avoided the incarceration. Oh wait, he still would have been busted for the child porn.

In requesting a life sentence, Assistant U.S. Attorney David William Denton Jr. asked for a life sentence. He said Schulte was responsible for "the most damaging disclosures of classified information in American history."

Given a chance to speak, Schulte complained mostly about harsh conditions at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, calling his cell, "my torture cage." 

Boo-freaking-hoo.

The traitor also claimed that prosecutors had once offered him a plea deal that would have called for a 10-year prison sentence and that it was unfair of them to now seek a life term. He said he objected to the deal because he would have been required to relinquish his right to appeal. It looks as if he chose the wrong door and won the booby prize.

"This is not justice the government seeks, but vengeance," the piece of human excrement whined.

Immediately after sentencing, the judge criticized some of Schulte's half-hour of remarks, saying he was "blown away" by Schulte's "complete lack of remorse and acceptance of responsibility."

The judge said Schulte was "not driven by any sense of altruism," but instead was "motivated by anger, spite and perceived grievance" against others at the agency who he believed had ignored his complaints about the work environment and lack of child porn access.

Furman said Schulte continued committing crimes from behind bars by trying to leak more classified materials and by creating a hidden file on his computer that contained 2,400 images of child sexual abuse that he continued to view from jail. 

I don't know about you, but I'm all in for the death sentence for people who commit and support child sexual abuse if it can be clearly proven.

During a two-hour proceeding, Furman noted a one-page letter the government had forwarded from CIA Deputy Director David S. Cohen, who described Schulte's crimes as causing "exceptionally grave harm to U.S. national security and the CIA."

Cohen added: "His actions cost the Agency hundreds of millions of dollars; degraded its ability to collect foreign intelligence against America's adversaries; placed directly at risk CIA personnel, programs, and assets; and jeopardized U.S. national security by degrading the CIA's ability to conduct its mission. In short, Mr. Schulte's actions inflicted heavy costs on the United States."

A mistrial was declared in 2020 at Schulte's original trial after the jury was deadlocked on the most serious counts, including illegal gathering and transmission of national defense information. 

He was convicted at a July 2022 trial of charges in connection with the classified leak.

Last fall, he was convicted in the case over the child sexual abuse images, which originated when a computer that Schulte possessed after he left the CIA and moved to New York from Virginia was found to contain the images and videos that he had downloaded from the internet from 2009 to March 2017.

Of the 40-year sentence, Furman said the bulk of it was for the CIA theft while six years and eight months of it were for the convictions over the child sexual abuse materials.

In a statement afterward, U.S. Attorney Damian Williams said Schulte "betrayed his country by committing some of the most brazen, heinous crimes of espionage in American history. When the FBI caught him, Schulte doubled down and tried to cause even more harm to this nation by waging what he describe as an 'information' war' of publishing top secret information from behind bars."

Meanwhile, Wikileaks founder Julian Assange remains in Britain, where he has battled the courts for years to avoid being sent to the U.S., where he faces 17 charges of espionage and one charge of computer misuse.

Chelsea Manning tries to kill himself in jail legal team claims

Chelsea [Bradley] Manning

Former Army intelligence analyst who formerly went by his given name, Bradley Manning, tried to "take her [his] own life" in a Virginia jail on Wednesday just prior to a court date, his legal team said.

Manning has been recovering from the alleged suicide attempt and is still expected to appear in court for a hearing Friday after he refused to testify before a grand jury in a WikiLeaks probe, the attorneys said.

Manning, who believes he is a woman and dresses the part, was re-arrested last May for failing to comply with the subpoena to testify after serving two months for the same issue.

A judge is ready to rule Friday on a motion to terminate the civil contempt sanctions stemming from his May refusal.

He told the judge in May he’d “rather starve to death” than comply with the subpoena. He is probably lying because he loves himself too much to go through with it.

Bradley [Chelsea] Manning

“In spite of those sanctions -- which have so far included over a year of so-called 'coercive' incarceration and nearly half a million dollars in threatened fines -- she remains unwavering in her refusal to participate in a secret grand jury process that she sees as highly susceptible to abuse,” his legal team wrote in a statement complying with his wish to go along with his gender delusion.

Manning was found guilty of espionage and theft in 2013 and was sentenced to 35 years in prison after he leaked classified documents to Wikileaks. Had it not been for the equally despicable Obama administration, that commuted the traitor's sentence in 2017, he would still be in prison.

They will probably make a Netflix series about this POS and glorify him.

Federal judge orders Manning jailed again

You can put lipstick on a . . . 

Former U.S. Army intelligence analyst Bradley Manning has been ordered back to jail by a U.S. District Judge, Anthony Trenga, Thursday after he refused to comply with a new grand jury subpoena in the WikiLeaks case in which he assisted WikiLeaks in obtaining over 100,000 classified military documents. This was the biggest classified document dump in American history but in spite of that, former President Obama commuted his sentence.

“Attempting to coerce me with a grand jury subpoena is not going to work. I will not cooperate with this or any other grand jury,” Manning said before entering the federal courthouse in Alexandria, Va. This was his way of "Manning up."

Manning told the court he “would rather starve to death” than cooperate with the grand jury. I say give him his wish.

Manning, a man who believes himself to be a woman,  was freed earlier this month after 62 days in jail for refusing to testify with the previous grand jury. He was released from jail when the grand jury’s term ended but was served with another subpoena requiring him to appear before a new grand jury.

An indictment against WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange alleges he conspired with Manning to hack into a Pentagon computer network in 2010. Remember, you can't have Assange without "Ass."

Manning was convicted at a court martial trial in 2013 of leaking a trove of documents to WikiLeaks. Manning's 35-year prison sentence was commuted by former failed President Barack Obama just days before the end of his presidency in January 2017.

Assange, who was living in asylum in Ecuador’s Embassy in London since 2012, was arrested last month and sentenced to 50 weeks in jail for breaking his bail conditions after he took refuge in the embassy to avoid extradition to Sweden to face a rape allegation.

U.S. prosecutors are seeking to extradite Assange after he’s released from jail, but Sweden recently reopened the rape investigation, complicating those efforts.

Hopefully justice will be done and Manning will rot in prison.

The judge ruled that if Manning doesn't comply with the grand jury subpoena after 30 days he will be fined $500 a day, the official said. The fine would go up to $1000 a day if he continues to refuse to testify after 60 days, according to the official.

It is unknown whether Manning has officially had his genitals removed and reshaped to sort of resemble the genitalia of a woman. Inquiring minds don't care one way or the other.

UPDATE: Chelsea Manning barred from entering Australia

"My Adam's apple is bobbing up and down."

UPDATE: New Zealand has agreed to allow Manning entry into the country in spite of his status as a convicted felon for his traitorous acts. Evidently, you have to kill your family in order to be banned from entering New Zealand.

Convicted classified information leaker and a man with gender identity disorder who changed his name from Bradley to Chelsea Manning will be barred from entering the land "down under," his event organizer said Thursday.

The Australian government sent Manning's team a notice of intention denying the mentally ill piece of human excrement entry, according to Think Inc. who organized the event but called referred to him as a woman.

The organizers said they gave the government over 10 letters from organizations and people who support the treasonous dickweed's visit to Australia, but alas, to no avail.

"Ms. Manning [LOL] offers formidable ideas and an insightful perspective which we are hoping to bring to the forefront of Australian dialogue," Think Inc. Director Suzi Jamil wrote in a statement.

Non-citizens visiting Australia must fall under the character requirements put out by the Migration Act. Those who fail the character test can be denied, and Mr. Manning failed spectacularly.

Think Inc. is calling on Manning's supporters to lobby new Immigration Minister David Coleman to allow him into Australia, where he's scheduled to speak in a dress, lipstick and frilly undies at the Sydney Opera House and two additional events. While the dude can appeal, past precedent suggests his butt will be but another butt not permitted entry.

This isn't the first time Manning was denied entry to a country. Canada barred him last year but he was later allowed to appear as a woman at another event, Reuters said.

After his trip to Australia, he's expected to go to New Zealand and Immigration there expects to make a decision as to whether they want a scumcrumpet coming into their country dressed as a woman who turned on his own country. They must decide whether to grant him a "special direction" visa because he doesn't qualify for entry otherwise because of his criminal conviction within the last 10 years. Those are New Zealand's visa rules, but one suspects they will cave to him due to the fear of being a nation referred to by the left as "transphobic."

Manning was sentenced to 35 years in prison after he was found guilty of leaking military and diplomatic documents to WikiLeaks. He served a mere seven years before his sentence was commuted in 2017 by Barack Obama, a president who doesn't know how to pronounce "corpsman" and thought the United States was comprised of 57 states, obviously confusing America with John Kerry's wife's Heinz Corporation with their 57 varieties.

It's obvious that politics is as confused as Manning's belief about his gender.

Chelsea Manning didn't off himself

Lipstick and eyeliner doth not a woman make

Chelsea Manning, the Army traitor who sent WikiLeaks tens of thousands of classified documents, posted two tweets Sunday night hinting that he was contemplating suicide, an unfortunate part of the mental illness suffered by transgender individuals.

Since then, his tweets have been deleted.

Shortly after the tweets, Manning's Twitter handle reported that he is safe and was on the phone with friends.

"Thanks everyone for your concern and please give her some space," the tweet read. (Italics mine.)

Manning lives in Bethesda Maryland and announced his run for U.S. Senate earlier this year. He was sentenced to 35 years in prison for violating the Espionage Act and leaking to WikiLeaks, much like Hillary Clinton and the Weiners violated the Espionage Act and got away with it.

But former President Obama commuted his sentence in his last days in office, because the espionage Manning committed was not against a country Obama really liked anyway.

Manning posted a picture that appeared to depict a person looking down to a street below from atop a building.

"I'm sorry - I tried - I'm sorry I let you all down," he wrote in a now-deleted tweet, reported by The Daily News. "I'm not really cut out for this world - I tried adapting to this world out here but I failed you - I couldn't do this anymore - I can take people I don't know hating me but not my own friends," the mentally ill transgender traitor added. "I tried and I'm sorry about my failure."

That should help him secure more votes on the left for his senate run. They love the intersectionality of a guy like Manning: a transgender traitor to the United States who got his "Get Out of Jail Card" from the first black leftist president.

Manning as he breaks Barack Obama's heart

In Manning's case, he became despondent after a debate on social media with Dawn Ennis, a former ABC News assignment editor, who criticized Manning's remark that "voting won't change anything."

Ennis, who is also a biological man came out as a transgender in 2013, and he posted on Twitter: "I am looking forward to an update on Chelsea's well being in the morning. I truly wish her well. And I expect a new wave of online anger and hate to greet me, too. Be kind to all those who struggle. I myself will work harder to bear that in mind."

Fact: a full 40 percent of transgender individuals will at one point in their life commit suicide or attempt to commit suicide. And it has nothing to do with whether they have begun or completed the transition or if they have been under overt stress from the community. 

Sadly, because society bends over backwards to go along with their delusion, transgender men and women don't receive the psychological intervention they need.

And they call conservatives the 'science deniers'.

Russia's Snowden still sucks and has no cred

Former National Security Agency contractor/spy Edward Snowden thinks that he has the right to make his traitorous opinions known after he fled to Russia in to escape the law in a case of espionage in which he exposed government information about our surveillance programs.

He exposed tons of classified information in 2013 to WikiLeaks. For some strange reason, some Trump supporters as well as the president, "like" WikiLeaks and Julian Assange, it's founder because they also went after Hillary Clinton in the 2016 presidential election.

Now Snowden, the pencil-neck weasel, is ripping President Trump over his CIA pick, Gina Haspel, because she managed black-site prisons. 

Who gives a rat's butt?

Snowden and his liberal buddies would have the targets of those prisons come to the US as illegal immigrants as long as they'd vote Democratic.

Haspel is alleged to be a key player in the enhanced interrogation techniques that took place at the black-site prisons. This will obviously come up in the hearings for her Senate confirmation. 

While some media outlets are claiming she was directly involved, it's hardly credible they would know--that's why they call them "black-sites."

Snowden, on the other hand, has likely gotten CIA clandestine agents killed.

Chelsea (nee Bradley) Manning apparently wants to have sex with cops

On the day the country recognizes cops, known as Law Enforcement Appreciation Day Tuesday, convicted spy and Obama hero, Chelsea Manning, went on Twitter to take his love for the police one step further. He wants to have hot transgender sex with all of law enforcement.

"F--k the police," the Manning the man tweeted with the hashtag "DisarmThePolice #WeGotThis."

By "disarm," Mr. Manning probably meant the idea of saying something sweet to sweep cops off their feet. 

When he tweeted the hashtag "#WeGotThis" he probably meant that he has jock itch and so do others he hangs out with.

Then the guy tweeted out a series of unsourced stats having to do with law enforcement. 

Manning released over 700,000 classified government documents on WikiLeaks, the website that is not true friends with President Trump, in spite of his cheering it on when it helped him politically.

Manning, along with his XY chromosomes, was arrested in 2010, convicted in 2013 of 20 counts including Espionage Act violations, theft and computer fraud (like Hillary Clinton) and was cleared by the left of his most serious charge of aiding the enemy. 

Even though he did.

In his final days in office, President Obama granted Manning clemency and he was released from prison last May after only serving 7 years of his 35-year sentence. 

It is not known whether or not the former failed president and Mr. Manning have been seeing each other since his release.

CNN and CBS screw it up as usual on Russia probe

The Careless News Network (CNN) got it wrong again in their enthusiasm to destroy Trump's presidency. They thought they had an actual scoop regarding President Trump and his associates coordinated with Russian-aligned operatives in 2016, but alas, they screwed the pooch.

Basically, they claimed 2016 Republican nominee Trump, his son Donald Trump Jr., and other campaign advisers received an email in September 2016 that offered them advance access to an impending WikiLeaks dump of emails from DNC staffers and Hillary Clinton's campaign chairman, John Podesta.

CNN's report was based entirely on an email that was supposedly sent on September 4th. The email to Trump Jr. and his team included a "decryption key and website address" for the WikiLeaks dump, the article stated.

BUT there is a yooge error in the claim made by CNN which they promoted all Friday morning and afternoon.

Specifically, the email the story hinged upon was actually sent September 14th, not the 4th, which means the email only pointed Trump's team to public hacked DNC documents. Public!

So the difference between the date CNN gave, Sept. 4, and the actual date Sept. 14, is the difference between someone merely using public information versus someone covertly slipping Trump and his team advance access to hacked correspondence.

The CNN story suggests that Trump and his team had someone on the inside for the DNC hacks versus a story that suggests his team gets a lot of crank emails.

"What a colossal f**k up," a CNN reporter told the Washington Examiner in response to the story's coming apart on Friday.

The House Intelligence Committee is pouring over all over the emails of Trump officials and even their family members, including their junk email in their investigation of the 2016 alleged meddling in the election by Russia.

Donald Trump Jr. was copied on the Sept. 14th email and was asked about the note this week in a closed-door session with committee members. Someone leaked that email to the press and it makes the committee look really bad.

The bogus CNN report, written by Manu Raju and Jeremy Herb, claimed the email was "described" by "multiple sources" and "verified" by Trump Jr.'s attorney.

Even CBS misreported the date of the email was Sept. 4th.

The Post and the Wall Street Journal both got their hands on a copy of the Sept. 14th email and handled it differently--seeing that it lacked credibility.

WSJ's Rebecca Ballhaus noted that there were serious problems with the note. 

"The Sept. 14 email to Trump campaign advertising WikiLeaks emails promoted publicly available info, was riddled with typos and came from a Trump backer who had given $40 to the campaign months earlier, per email viewed by @WDJ," she tweeted.

Both the Careless News Network and Cannot Believe Squat have since corrected their unsubstantiated reporting, sometimes known as 'fake news.'

"CNN's initial reporting of the date on an email sent to members of the Trump campaign about WikiLeaks documents, which was confirmed by two sources to CNN was incorrect," a network spokes leftist said.

Originally, CNN used the term "multiple sources," rather than "two sources." And the "verified" by Trump Jr.'s attorney is just plain fake.

At the risk of sounding cliched, this is a nothingburger except for the fact that it indicates a clear political effort to spread misinformation by leftist media outlets, which should concern all Americans who believe in an honest press.

CBS, at least, added an editor's note Friday: "An earlier version of this story incorrectly stated the email was dated Sept. 4, 2016, instead of Sept. 14, 2016. The information was erroneously confirmed by a source, who subsequently sent the actual email to CBS News confirming the Sept. 14 date."

CNN assured the public that there will be no disciplinary action taken because the mistake was made against President Trump, not his detractors, as is always the case.

Possible pardon of Assange worries intel community

You have to admit it--sometimes President Trump says dumb stuff. Like the time he said that he loves WikiLeaks because they revealed Hillary Clinton's emails. Now a GOP lawmakers suggested that WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange could be pardoned by Trump and that isn't sitting well with the intelligence community.

The probability for a pardon of Assange appears unlikely, but the fact that not only has the president praised the website, Assange's own efforts to question the intelligence community's conclusion that Russia tried to influence the presidential election helped get Trump off the hook to some degree.

So the idea that Trump might pardon Assange is being taken seriously by intelligence organizations.

"It would send a terrible message to the intelligence community," said Robert Deitz, former senior counselor to the director of the CIA and general counsel at the NSA. 

Deitz is currently a professor at George Mason University Schar School of Policy and Government.

"What moral are people supposed to draw from that? Why on Earth would you believe Julian Assange before the intelligence community?" asked Deitz.

Rep. Dana Rohrabacher (R-Calif.) is being investigated for having ties to Russia and he's behind the Assange pardon pursuit. 

The deal Rohrabacher is pushing: pardon Assange in exchange for information he claims proves Russia didn't collude with the Trump campaign in the 2016 presidential race.

He was the first lawmaker to meet with Assange at the Ecuadorian Embassy in London last month. Assange is holed up there for years in order to avoid arrest. Rohrabacher claims at that time, Assange offered him "firsthand" evidence that would prove there was no collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia.

Rohrabacher also claims that a meeting is in the works with himself and Trump to discuss Assange's information and a potential pardon. 

If President Trump pardons the scumquat seditionist, it would be a horrible mistake and it's possible that many people will see it as an indication of some sort of conspiracy.

But a pardon of Assange, while it would be self-serving for Trump, would also cast doubt on the CIA, NSA, FBI and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence.

And if you don't think that would suck, you might be reading this post from Russia.

"He'd [Trump, that is] show that he'd do anything to skate out of the not just allegation, but clear fact of Russia's involvement [in the election]. That would be appalling," said Glenn Carle, a 23-year veteran of the CIA's clandestine service and who ended his career as deputy national intelligence officer for transnational threats on the National Intelligence Council.

Remember, however, Assange hasn't been charged or convicted of any wrongdoing by the United States, so "It would be extremely unusual to pardon someone who hasn't been charged," said Margaret Love. 

Love served as Department of Justice pardon attorney between 1990 and 1997, and noted the exceptions: Ford's pardon of Richard Nixon, Carter's pardon of Vietnam draft dodgers, and Reagan's pardon of illegal immigrants. 

Michael Borohovski, a former intelligence contractor said that a pardon of Assange would reinforce the idea the it's okay to leak.

"Assange allegedly was involved with a few of the largest intelligence leaks of all time. Pardoning him would make it seem okay," he said.

No, most informed Americans don't love WikiLeaks.

Assange says he urged Don Jr. to publish on WikiLeaks

WikiLeaks founder and enemy of our national security Julian Assange said he contacted Donald Trump Jr. on Tuesday morning to convince him to publish the emails involved with his meeting with a Russian lawyer who lured him with the claim that she has damaging information about Hillary Clinton on the site.

"Contacted Trump Jr this morning on why he should publish his emails (i.e. with us). Two hours later, does it himself," the self-serving slug tweeted.

Earlier on Tuesday, Donald Trump Jr. published an email exchange he had with British publicist Rob Goldstone. It showed they corresponded about a meeting with Russian attorney, Natalia Veselnitskaya, last year.

Goldstone told Don Jr. that the lawyer had damaging information about Hillary Clinton, and this was part of Russia's government's efforts to help defeat the shrieking felon. [He didn't actually write that--I just did]. 

Ultimately, Trump Jr., former campaign chairman Paul Manafort, and Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner met with Veselnitskaya at Trump Tower in June 2016. According to Trump Jr., the meeting didn't discuss any information about Hillary and seemed somewhat confusing to Trump Jr., and appeared to have focused on the adoption issue of Russian children.

Donald Trump Jr. will be speaking to Sean Hannity Tuesday night and will discuss the emails, and Bob Muller will also be looking into the situation as well.

Trump rips Comey a new one

Washington -- President Donald Trump accused fired FBI director James Comey of cowardice by leaking notes of his meetings with the president. This comes a few days after Comey's emotion-ladened, down-home, country boy testimony in which he said that Trump sought to derail the Russian probe. 

"I believe the James Comey leaks will be far more prevalent than anyone ever thought possible," Trump tweeted in the early morning. "Totally illegal? Very 'cowardly!'"

Comey made the allegations at a Senate hearing Thursday, and said in his sworn testimony that he asked a "friend" identified as a Columbia University law professor to leak a memo of his conversations to the press for the purpose of that creating a need for an independent investigation.

Comey got his wish.

He also called President Trump a liar claiming Trump urged him to abandon the investigation into the former national security adviser Michael Flynn and his Russian dealings. Trump denied this allegation.

On Friday, Trump's former campaign manager Corey Lewandowski criticized Comey as not being "man enough" for having leaked the memo via his friend rather than doing it himself. 

Lewandowski, you may recall, pushed Michelle Fields, a reporter for Breitbart, to the ground during the Trump campaign. At least he didn't get another man to do it for him.

"He gave his notes to a Columbia law professor because he wasn't man enough to give the notes directly to the media when he wanted them out t o the media," Lewandowski told NBC's "Today Show."

Although Trump attacked Comey as a "leaker," he also claimed Comey's testimony provided him with "total and complete vindication." 

Trump also once said that he "loves"WikiLeaks.

Hillary Clinton's narcissistic delusion

In a breathtaking level of denial and lack of self-awareness as to how others generally see her, as well as an obnoxious level of arrogance and self importance, along with the abject pandering to minorities as well as bald-faced lies to the general public, and a level of hypocrisy as a self-proclaimed woman's advocate as she dons an Islamic veil or attacks her husband's sexual victims, not to mention having an illegal private server with seriously classified material that should never have gotten to where it could easily be hacked by those who would do us harm,  Hillary Clinton blames FBI Director James Comey, and WikiLeaks for her loss in the presidential election to a reality TV guy, even though she failed to campaign in states that may have taken her over the top in winning the presidency.

One cannot help but write a sesquipedalian pleonasm of run-on sentences when describing Hillary Clinton but I will do my best to curb my verbiage.

On Tuesday, the former Secretary of State Secrets said she took "absolute personal responsibility" for her losing the presidential campaign; then she took a breath.

In her next breath she blamed FBI Director James Comey and the Russians for helping Donald Trump win the presidency. The Queen of Mean cited a letter from Comey saying FBI agents were pursuing new information related to Clinton's illegal secret, homebrewed, private server that should have landed her in the slammer but didn't. 

So instead of thanking Comey for not having her fitted for an orange jump suit, she blamed him for her loss rather than her total incompetence.

But that wasn't enough for Clinton, a lady who appears to have problems with her balance as much as she has for the truth. She went on to blame the WikiLeaks website, which posted hacked emails of her fellow scumcrumpet and Campaign Chairman John Podesta.

"I was on the way to winning until a combination of Jim Comey's letter on October 28 and Russian WikiLeaks raised doubts in the minds of people who were inclined to vote for me but were scared off," she said at the Women for Women International Conference.

Then she had the audacity of dope to say, "If the election were on October 27th, I'd be your president."

How pathetic can a person get? 

Clinton is writing a book about her 2016 experience as the person who was screwed over by the world. It will be classified as a novel.

She had no clear platform, no charisma, no new ideas. All she had was identity politics and female parts. She didn't lose because of James Comey--she lost because of Hillary Clinton.

And all she has is obnoxious rotomontade.

FBI's mole hunters going after CIA leaker

Hopefully Julian Assange, the founder of WikiLeaks, will one day get caught outside the sanctuary of London's Ecuadorian embassy that's housing him and be brought to the US to stand trial. 

Within 24 hours since WikiLeaks published what they call the "entire hacking capacity of the CIA," the FBI launched a criminal probe to determine who the mole is that provided them with the documents.

According to experts tracking down this traitor will be quite difficult, but not impossible.

The 2010 leak by Army Pvt. Bradley (aka Chelsea) Manning forced Pres. Obama to create a group dedicated to tracking down and catching government leakers. Manning was caught after revealing the extent of his actions to an American hacker who later testified against him. Soon after that, Obama announced the creation of the National Insider Threat Task Force (NITTF).

Since being incarcerated, Manning announced that he believes he's a woman and plans to have surgery to remove his male genitals in order to reinforce the fallacy. For now, he wears a wig and lipstick and tries to speak several octaves higher than he did in the past, and only sings in falsetto.

Hopefully, FoxNews.com will come to its senses about Manning and not go along with his nonsense in the future.

According to its website, the NITTF was formed "to prevent, deter and detect compromises of classified information by malicious insiders."

The NITTF pointed out in a tweet this week that "all of the firewalls in the world won't stop an insider who is already on the inside of these firewalls." 

Just ask Edward Snowden.

WikiLeaks dumps trove of CIA hacking tools

WikiLeaks is at it again. In what they're calling the "largest ever publication of confidential documents" from the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency, they claim to have released thousands of files from a "high-security network" inside the CIA's Center for Cyber Intelligence in Langley, VA.

This is the first in a series called "Year Zero." It will detail CIA cyber weaponry, according to their press release, and the source of the files is allegedly a former government hacker or contractor. WikiLeaks claims the source wants to create a public debate "about the security, creation, use, proliferation and democratic control of cyber weapons."

The enormous file released apparently contains millions of lines of code, referencing programs with ambiguous names such as "Medusa" and "HIVE."

According to WikiLeaks' analysis of the documents, the CIA has been targeting iPhones, smart TVs, and Androids. One program of the CIA can turn on smart TVs into "covert microphones" for spying, WikiLeaks said, and also alleged the agency is able to collect data from machines running Apple's iOS.

Another shocker is the assertion the U.S. consulate in Frankfurt, Germany, operates as a "covert CIA hacker base." The website alleges that agents get into Germany under the guise of technical consultants for the American consulate, but then are given "black" passports that allow them access to travel freely through the Shengen open border area.

Whoever the WikiLeaks source is, that person needs to be found and brought to justice. Our national security is compromised when our intelligence goes public.

Hopefully, President Trump will see this as a priority.

Putin extends Snowden's asylum

Moscow -- Now that Obama virtually freed Chelsea/Bradley Manning from almost all of his 35 year prison sentence, the Russian government made it clear Wednesday that Edward Snowden, the other guy who gave away US government secrets, will be allowed to remain in Russia for "a couple more years," Maria Zakharova, a spokeswoman for the Russian Foreign Ministry announced on Facebook.

Snowden is a former National Security Agency contractor who, like Manning (who thinks he's a woman) gave away national secrets, so of course Putin loves him. But so might Obama who apparently loves anyone who doesn't love the USA--the Castros are the first to come to mind, but there are others.

Snowden and his leftist supporters have been actively campaigning for a pardon from Obama but his name did not appear on a list of pardons that have been prepared. He has been stuck in Moscow since 2013 after he tried to fly to Latin America but was stopped in his tracks after providing information revealing surveillance and data collection programs operated by the NSA.

Josh Earnest was asked about why Snowden and Manning were being treated differently and he said that was because Manning is a transgender person who has been punished enough. 

Just kidding. What he really said was that the documents leaked by Snowden were "far more serious and far more dangerous" than those Manning disclosed. This, of course, is a lie. Both individuals compromised US intelligence and in Manning's case, people in covert operations likely died and others clearly had to be pulled from the field as their lives were compromised by the disclosures of names and identifying information. In fact, the Taliban went on a "killing spree" based on Manning's information.

Snowden is just a scum who needs to be incarcerated for violating the Espionage Act. Manning, of course, should not only not be released, as Obama is doing, but should have probably received a much more harsh punishment due to the fact that our nation is and was at war when the document dump to WikiLeaks was done by him.

I don't think Obama will pardon Snowden, nor should he, but if he does, it will be yet another slap in the face. 

Sadly, I wouldn't put it past him.

Two more days and he's out of the White House on yet another taxpayer paid vacation after coming back just days ago from his last one.

Sad!

Both sides of aisle upset with Obama's decision on Mannong

Chelsea Manning, formerly known as Bradley Manning because he thinks that he is now a woman, was sentenced to a 35-year prison sentence for leaking about 700,000 classified documents to WikiLeaks. He could have been given the death sentence but his life was spared.

Now his incarceration has been commuted and the traitor will be out of prison and free as a songbird in May of this year.

The outgoing Secretary of Defense, Ash Carter along with other top Army leaders recommended against Lame Duck President Obama commuting the bulk of Manning's sentence but giving the American people one last screwing was just too much of a temptation for Obama to pass up.

This information was discovered as Obama found himself on the defensive over his seditious decision. It's disgusting and horribly wrong. Many lawmakers of both parties are condemning this shameful decision and are warning that it sets a "dangerous precedent."

Any patriotic American's stomach turned when we heard this decision. Because of Manning's treasonous behavior, lives were lost.

It's ironic that Obama and his party attacks Russia and WikiLeaks but frees a scumbag that gave WikiLeaks classified military and government information.

Obama is expected to defend the commutation at his thankfully final press conference on Wednesday afternoon, but there is no defense for it, no honest reason that Manning should be freed. 

Now the question is who else will our leftist America-hating lame duck give clemency.

As a result of Manning's traitorous actions, "Ambassadors were forced to resign, [CIA] station chiefs had to be recalled [to protect their lives], secret diplomatic cables were revealed," an official told the media.

According to defense officials, Manning's actions sped up the Arab Spring and may have contributed to the rise of ISIS.

Two intelligence sources confirmed that after some Afghanistan reports were released in 2010, the Taliban "went on a killing spree," taking out everyone fitting the description of people who may have worked with the U.S. If the report described "someone with short, dark hair, helping the U.S., the Taliban took out everyone with short dark hair. It was indiscriminate," a source told Fox News.

In Manning's pardon application, his lawyer claimed that "None of the disclosed documents caused any real damage to the United States. Instead, these documents simply embarrassed our country by revealing misconduct by the Department of Defense and unethical practices by the Department of State."

Cool--blame the victims, not the scumcrumpet who gave them up.

In total, Obama has granted clemency to 273 people but is yet to grant it to U.S. Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, another traitorous deserter who got soldiers killed trying to rescue him after he walked off his post in Afghanistan. He too asked Obama for a pardon--it's probably tearing Obama apart as to what to do, but we know what he wants to do. 

If Bergdahl is pardoned, he doesn't have to go to trial in April to face charges of desertion and misbehavior before the enemy, for which he can get life in prison.

Obama commutes sentence of American traitor

It comes as no surprise that Lame Duck President Obama would commute the remaining prison sentence of Bradley (aka Chelsea) Manning, the convicted Army intelligence analyst who, in 2010, provided WikiLeaks with over 700,000 documents on military and domestic activities across the world. 

It wouldn't even surprise me if Obama agrees to pay for Manning's penis removal procedure to make him look like the woman his delusion has him believe.

This is just another "flipping of the bird" by Obama to the American right and Trump. It's his last hurrah as president and it stinks.

Julian Assange, founder of WikiLeaks, said that if Obama agreed to commute Manning's sentence that he would agree to extradition and come to the United States.

Manning tried to commit suicide twice last year, fearful of being a transgender person at an all male military prison at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas. He has been there for almost 7 years and his 35-year sentence was the longest ever imposed in the USA for a leak conviction. Perhaps that was due to the fact that it was the largest leak of classified military information in the history of the United States. 

Manning is lucky he didn't get the death sentence.

Now he's scheduled for release on May 17th of this year, rather than in 2045. This will take the burden off the military who is being pushed by Manning for treatment of his gender dysphoria (a fancy term for delusions) and for surgery to remove his penis and replace it with tissue to make him look like a woman.

Now all Obama has to do to put the icing on the finger is for him to pardon Edward Snowden and allow him to leave Mother Russia and come home again.

Sad!

WikiLeaks says Assange would agree to extradition on one condition

WikiLeaks, the multi-national media organization specializing in publication of large datasets of censored or restricted official materials involving war, spying or corruption, whether or not it be at the expense of government security or individual privacy, said that its founder, Julian Assange, will agree to be extradited to the United States if Lame Duck President Obama grants clemency to Bradley (aka Chelsea) Manning.

As is their wont, WikiLeaks made the announcement online, using Twitter, and remained steadfast that the case by our DoJ against Assange was unconstitutional.

They did not mention that putting classified material online that could ultimately get our military killed is also unconstitutional and highly illegal, but that must have simply been a small oversight.

Manning provided WikiLeaks with over 700,000 documents from the State Department and is serving a mere 35 year sentence (rather than being given the death penalty). 

And now, as he serves his time as a traitor under the Espionage Act, he is asking for the US taxpayer to go along with his delusion that he is a woman so that he can have his genitals mutilated to appear to look like those of an actual woman without having to pay for the procedure.

Assange, on the other hand, is hiding out at the Ecuadorian Embassy in London since June 2012. He is doing so to avoid extradition to Sweden to face sexual assault allegations. His biggest fear is that Stockholm would then extradite him to the U.S. because of the WikiLeaks publishing of those Manning-stolen documents containing secret cables from our military, which were leaked by him when he was a U.S. soldier.

The ACLU and the LGBT have lobbied Obama to commute Manning's sentence. In the first case because they are a leftist, USA-bashing group. In the latter case, because they need to support people who are as delusional as they are in terms of transgender issues.

Manning has twice tried to commit suicide but each time screwed it up.

Wiki's Julian Assange fires back

WikiLeaks founder and head leaker Julian Assange fired back at the U.S. intelligence community for reporting his anti-secrecy website was used by Russia to distribute hacked information from Democratic staffers during the presidential campaign season.

The blond wonder spoke during a Periscope Q&A session and claimed that his source of information was not a member "of any government" or "state parties" nor did the source "come from the Russian government." He said Friday's declassified intelligence report on "Assessing Russian Activities and Intentions on Recent US Elections" was inadequate and misleading.

"It was not an intelligence report," Assange said. "It does not have the structure of an intelligence report. It does not have the structure of a Presidential Daily Brief. It was frankly quite embarrassing."

How does Assange know how a Presidential Daily Brief is structured? Or an intelligence report, for that matter. 

That's the scary part.

He then added: "It was clearly designed for political effect."

As much as Assange is a detestable piece of rat excrement on the shoe of Abu Bakr al Baghdadi's sandal, I kind of believe him. The reason for this is because it has become so obvious how often the Obama administration has lied to us, it becomes almost impossible to believe anything they say, including "hello."

When Assange was asked if it's possible that WikiLeaks' source was a go-between affiliated with the Russian government, he answered saying he didn't want to "play twenty questions with our sources."

An answer filled with more questions.

The intelligence report was prepared at the direction of Lame Duck President Obama, with whom even going to a mens room can be a political act. He laid the blame for the breach of the Democratic officials' emails at the feet of Putin and the Russians, without mentioning the breathtaking stupidity of John Podesta and Hillary Clinton for the ways in which they failed to protect their emails. 

Podesta's password was 'password.' Clinton's server was in a toilet in Colorado. Do you know anything about what Colorado toilets are like? 

Seriously, how can you trust the judgment of either one of those clowns?

But the real irony is that our government knew about Russia's hacking for several years, but only now, with the election defeat of Hillary Clinton, the Obamatron, is our so-called president going after Russia with silly sanctions that make Vladimir's nipples hard.

The intelligence report stated: "We assess with high confidence that Russian military intelligence . . . relayed material to WikiLeaks."

That may or may not be true, but if the report said otherwise, I would bet that people in the intelligence community would be asking: "Do you want to supersize those fries?"

When asked if he believed the report was "fabricated" Assange said "Most of this so-called intelligence report is not even fabricated. That is, it does not even make assertions for the most part to rise to the level of fabrications . . . it uses speculative terms and admits its own speculation."

When it got down to the nitty-gritty, Assange said that he didn't think it mattered who gave WikiLeaks the information. "Even if you believe that hackers of some kind illicitly obtained the Podesta emails and the DNC emails we published . . . what are we talking about in terms of impact?" He then said, "What was discussed are the words of Hillary Clinton, John Podesta and her team revealing unethical practices, corruption, hypocrisy, etcetera."

Then Assange asked: "Should the American people have been denied that true information?"

And the truth shall set you free--unless you're a Democrat.

The DNI and CIA don't agree with Russian hack assessment

The Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI), the agency that oversees our entire intelligence community, does not fully concur with the CIA finding that Russia interfered in the U.S. elections in an effort to help Donald Trump win.

Several U.S. election-related hacking incidents are being categorized as if they are related, but DNI believes they should be treated as separate events. 

The hacking involves breaches at the Democratic National Committee (DNC) and another campaign arm. It also involves an email account of a top campaign official for Clinton, and at state election boards.

Although ODNI doesn't dispute the CIA analysis on the Russian hacking, the office isn't convinced that Moscow sought specifically to help Trump beat Clinton. So, it is intent that's at issue here.

The CIA made the call regarding Russia's intent based solely on the fact that only Democratic information was leaked. The ODNI official said that this is a "thin reed upon which to base an analytical judgment."

Perhaps the fact that Donald Trump and other Republicans did not have a private email server hidden in a bathroom closet in Colorado may have made it somewhat more difficult for the Russians to hack the GOP.

Clinton's campaign manager, John Podesta, was the person whose email was hacked and he is backing the call for electors to get an intelligence briefing on the situation with Russian interference in the election.

The difference of opinion between the CIA and ODNI was first revealed in a letter on Monday from House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes (R-Calif.) to Director of Intelligence and Ed Rollins lookalike, James Clapper. It noted that the CIA findings conflicted with Clapper's public testimony in mid-November.

"On November 17, 2016, you told the Committee during an open hearing that the IC [Intelligence Community] lacked strong evidence connecting Russian government cyberattacks and WikiLeaks disclosures," Nunes wrote.

Clapper, in response to a question from ranking Democrat Adam Schiff, said "As far as the WikiLeaks connection, the evidence there is not as strong and we don't have good insight into the sequencing of the releases or when the data may have been provided. We don't have as good insight into that."

Nunes is requesting a briefing from the CIA and FBI on the current assessment of alleged involvement by Russia as it relates to our election--he wants it by Dec. 16 as the electors are to cast their votes for the presidential selection on Dec. 19.

The Post reported that the FBI gave a different account on Russian interference and that the CIA assessment was based, in part, on intelligence indicating Moscow's hacking disproportionately affected Democratic targets.
