John Brennan Lies Again About ‘No Spying on Trump’s Campaign’ (VIDEO)

Obama administration CIA Director John Brennan insisted in an interview Sunday with Fox News’s Chris Wallace that Obama’s intelligence agencies conducted “no spying on Donald Trump’s campaign,” a claim contradicted by inspector general reports, a two-year special counsel probe, congressional inquiries, and continued investigation.

In 2019, an inspector general report found that Brennan lied under oath to Congress about details of the Obama administration’s spying on its political opponent Trump. A ruling from a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) court in June demonstrated that the Obama administration in which Brennan served lied about its legal basis for spying on former Trump campaign official Carter Page, including apparently fabricated evidence. Fabricated claims form much of the Steele dossier, according to the FBI. Federal agency reports previously found that Brennan repeatedly lied, including while under oath to Congress, about the CIA spying on the Senate, drone strikes, and more.

During the Sunday interview, Brennan also repeated lies he previously made to Congress that the Christopher Steele “dossier” did not affect the FBI and CIA’s review of disproven “collusion” between the Trump campaign and Russia. A report from Department of Justice Inspector General Michael Horowitz confirmed the former CIA director lied to Congress about this previously.

“The Steele dossier was not used in any way to undergird the judgments that came out of the intelligence community assessment about the Russian actions in the 2016 election,” Brennan claimed to Wallace. “There was so much other evidence and intelligence to support those judgments,” he added. “I am very comfortable with how the intelligence community came out on the 2016 election.”

Rudy Giuliani Tests Positive For COVID-19

Rudy Giuliani, who has led President Trump’s legal challenges to try to overturn the election, has tested positive for the coronavirus, the president said Sunday. . .

Giuliani is the latest member of Trump’s inner circle to contract the virus. Trump himself was infected and spent several days in the hospital in early October, and his chief of staff, multiple senior advisers, his press secretary, his campaign manager and his oldest son have all tested positive since.

The former New York City mayor is 76, putting him at a higher risk for serious complications from the virus.

Giuliani’s diagnosis comes roughly two weeks after his son, Andrew, who works in the White House, tested positive for the coronavirus. He held a lengthy, indoor, maskless press conference in late November with, among others, Trump campaign adviser Boris Epshteyn, who tested positive for COVID-19 shortly thereafter.

President Trump Orders Pentagon To Move Majority of U.S. Troops Out of Somalia

President Donald Trump has ordered a majority of the U.S. military members serving in Somalia to be relocated out of the country, the Pentagon announced Friday.

According to The New York Times, there are roughly 700 American troops currently in Somalia, and the movements are set to occur by Jan. 15.

The Department of Defense explained in a statement that the order does not constitute “a change in U.S. policy,” noting that while “some forces may be reassigned outside of East Africa,” those personnel who remain in the region “will be repositioned from Somalia into neighboring countries in order to allow cross-border operations by both U.S. and partner forces to maintain pressure against violent extremist organizations operating” in the country.

The most notorious terrorist group operating out of Somalia is the Al-Qaida-linked organization Al-Shabaab. (Read more from “President Trump Orders Pentagon To Move Majority of U.S. Troops Out of Somalia” HERE)

Judge Orders Trump Admin To Fully Restore DACA

The Trump administration was ordered by a federal judge on Friday to fully restore the controversial DACA amnesty program and accept new applications.

President Donald Trump had made it one of his campaign promises in 2016 to shut down the Obama-era program that gave deportation deferral to illegal aliens who had been brought into the country as children. The Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program is also known as “The Dream Act” by its supporters.

The ruling from Judge Nicholas Garaufis of the U.S. District Court in Brooklyn means that illegal aliens could apply for DACA deportation protection for the first time since 2017.

In July, the Supreme Court ordered that the president could not simply end the program, but the administration responded by saying that they would slowly wind down the program instead. Chief Justice John Roberts joined the liberal wing of the court to cast the deciding vote against the administration.

Among one of the policy changes was to grant DACA recipients work permits for only one year instead of two. Garaufis said that the Trump administration could not change the policy and ordered them to grant full 2-year work permits. (Read more from “Judge Orders Trump Admin To Fully Restore DACA” HERE)

Trump Administration Limits Visas for Chinese Communist Party Members

The Trump administration on Wednesday declared new restrictions on Chinese Communist Party members entering the United States on travel visas, a State Department spokesman told the New York Times.

New restrictions would limit the duration of visitor visa clearances for party members and their families to one month. Visitor visas to the United States for citizens of China generally last up to 10 years. The State Department spokesman maintained that visas for purposes such as work or immigration will not be subject to the new restriction.

When combining current members of the CCP with their family members, the new policy could apply to up to 270 million people, including some 92 million CCP members, according to the Times.

New visa restrictions coincide with “ongoing policy, regulatory, and law-enforcement action across the U.S. government to protect our nation from the CCP’s malign influence,” the State Department spokesman told the Times. “For decades we allowed the CCP free and unfettered access to U.S. institutions and businesses while these same privileges were never extended freely to U.S. citizens in China.” (Read more from “Trump Administration Limits Visas for Chinese Communist Party Members” HERE)

Trump Lawyer: Biden Team Should Be Getting ‘Nervous’

Trump campaign attorney Jordan Sekulow insisted on Thursday amid defeats in court that President Trump has a path to victory.

In an interview with Newsmax TV, he said the Trump campaign cases argue that there was enough fraud in the elections in swing states to cast doubt on the outcome. The remedy, he said, should be to put the outcome in the hands of the state legislatures that select electors to the Electoral College. The electors are selected Dec. 8 and the vote is Dec. 14.

The most likely path, however, he said, would be for the U.S. Supreme Court to combine cases from several states that would together determine the outcome of the election.

“That’s why we have a stay in Pennsylvania on those late incoming ballots, where the law was changed, because the court is waiting to see whether enough cases arrive at the Supreme Court that will change the outcome of the election,” he said.

Responding to critics and doubters, including Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham, Sekulow said he understands the concerns with earlier lawsuits that are more difficult to prove, “these massive fraud allegations.” (Read more from “Trump Lawyer: Biden Team Should Be Getting ‘Nervous'” HERE)

Ivanka Trump Deposed by DC Attorney General’s Office in Trump Inauguration Funds Lawsuit

Ivanka Trump, President Trump’s daughter and adviser, was deposed in a case involving alleged financial abuse of the president’s inaugural funds, according to court documents.

The D.C. attorney’s office revealed in a court filing that the younger Trump gave a deposition in the case on Tuesday. Her deposition is part of the D.C. attorney general’s lawsuit alleging the nonprofit presidential inaugural committee abused over $1 million in “improper payments” to the Trump hotel in Washington, D.C.

The attorney general’s office issued an investigative subpoena to the former friend of first lady Melania Trump, Stephanie Winston Wolkoff, who wrote a book documenting her declining relationship with the first lady, prior to its lawsuit after she voiced concerns the inaugural committee was overpaying the hotel.

WATCH: Trump Delivers ‘The Most Important Speech’ He’s Ever Made

President Donald Trump delivered a 46-minute speech Wednesday railing against what he claimed was a stolen election.

“This may be the most important speech I’ve ever made,” Trump said from the Diplomatic Room of the White House. “As president, I have no higher duty than to defend the laws and the Constitution of the United States. That is why I am determined to protect our election system, which is now under coordinated assault and siege.” . . .

“While it has long been understood that the Democrat political machine engages in voter fraud from Detroit to Philadelphia, to Milwaukee, Atlanta, so many other places, what changed this year was the Democratic Party’s relentless push to print and mail out tens of millions of ballots sent to unknown recipients with virtually no safeguards of any kind,” Trump said. . .

“Beyond this, the records are riddled with errors, wrong addresses, duplicate entries, and many other issues,” the president claimed.

Trump continued, airing frustration that his wide lead on election night eventually diminished, narrowly handing Biden the race. “I went from leading by a lot to losing by a little,” Trump said, holding up a chart showing vote tabulations of Wisconsin, where a late jump in ballots erased the president’s lead.

Dominion Voting-Machine Company Reportedly Has Chinese Links

Lawsuits filed in several states have alleged Dominion Voting Systems machines were used to flip votes from President Trump to Joe Biden.

Now, an investigation into Securities and Exchange Commission filings has revealed that the firm that owns Dominion Voting Systems received $400 million from a Swiss bank with close links to the Chinese government less than a month before the election, reports the Gateway Pundit. . .

The president and his supporters have charged that the system was utilized to switch “millions” of votes from the president to Biden.

The transaction with Dominion, first reported by Infowars, was made Oct. 9. Staple Street Capital filed SEC Form D offerings and sales amounting to $400 million, according to the SEC. The Sales Compensation Recipient was identified as UBS Securities. Another payment of $200 million went through in 2014.

UBS Securities is a Swiss bank that owns nearly 25% of UBS Securities Co., a Chinese investment bank. The rest is owned by the Chinese government. (Read more from “Dominion Voting-Machine Company Reportedly Has Chinese Links” HERE)

Michael Flynn Endorses Martial Law and National Re-Vote for President

Former national security adviser Michael Flynn promoted a petition Tuesday calling on President Donald Trump to temporarily suspend the U.S. Constitution, declare martial law and order the military to oversee a national re-vote for the 2020 presidential election.

The petition, published Tuesday by the Ohio-based non-profit group We The People Convention, said there was “no peaceful way left to preserve our Union” following President-elect Joe Biden’s electoral victory and urged Trump to exercise his “extraordinary authority” to avert a second civil war.

“Limited Martial Law is clearly a better option than Civil War!” a letter accompanying the petition states.

Flynn, to whom Trump granted a presidential pardon last Wednesday related to the retired Army general’s December 2017 guilty plea for making false statements to the FBI, tweeted a link to the petition Tuesday evening.

“Freedom never kneels except for God,” Flynn tweeted.
