Back to Crossfire Hurricane

In an earlier Blog, I asked the question who was the target of this Operation Crossfire Hurricane?   Who was caught in the crossfire, and who did it?   Here are some answers.

The target was candidate Donald Trump and his campaign.   When that failed to stop his election, President Trump became the target.   Sadly, it was done–not just by foreign adversaries, but by the top echelon of the FBI, and, I believe, the CIA and other Intelligence personnel.

Almost a magic act of deception and misdirection, a lie was concocted and then planted, and then bounced around the country.   Sucked into its hurricane were media journalists like Michael Isikoff, Senators like John McCain., Attorney General Jeff Sessions and Deputy Atty General Rod Rosenstein.   Begun by Peter Stok, Andrew McCabe, and Lisa Page most likely, it appears to have been orchestrated by FBI Dir. James Comey, CIA director John Brennan, and Director of National Intelligence James Clapper.  Other names to pay attention to as the data surfaces, and the evidence mounts are Sally Yates, Samantha Powers, Loretta Lynch, and the former President. The question to answer is this:  Who ordered the implementation of Crossfire Hurricane?  Who in the UK, Australia, Ukraine, and Italy were complicit?

The objective?  to take down the President of the United States.

Why? In investigations one has to identify the Who, the What, the When, the Where.  But, there will always be an underlying Why.  Some of you may not care to know the Why.   Some of you may be gleeful that for whatever reason they did it, you won’t pursue it because you have disdain for this President, and don’t really care what happens to him.

Now, here’s the point.   This time they did it to my guy.  The next time, it will be done to your guy.  None of these people care about Republican or Democrat, Conservative or Liberal.   They care about power and control.   And you, the American people, got in their way.   Certain they were set for life, the American people threw the grenade called Donald Trump into their cozy little den.   His presence threatened everything.

But, be sure, you are the ones they hate.   Why?   Because you have the annoying habit of believing you are smart, insightful; you have the tendancy to make decisions and to think independently.  Further, you are operating under the delusion–in their opinion–that you are the boss, and they are working for you.

To them, you are stupid and self-centered, and need to be governed. You were called “Deplorable” and recently you have been called “Garbage.”  James Comey last week said that you were a mob that should be put in a dark corner. Don’t miss this people. Regrettably, Crossfire Hurricane spilled out into our lives as well.   Donald Trump was not the only victim here. You were also the victim–and in my opinion the actual intended target.

You stepped out of line.   You superseded your “authority” in their minds.   You sent a true change agent.  And that person was capable of dismantling all their power and money structure.  Why?  Because, as an executive, he has the habit of asking the question, “Why?”   It’s part of the package of true executives.  They need to know why something is working or not working, why stats are going up or down, why public relations are strong or not strong.   The list of questions is endless, but always governed by the need to know the real reason why.   Once they identify the underlying “why” they can begin to fix and expand.

The American people sent an executive to Washington, not a self-serving, career-enhancing politician.   And that was a “sin” in the minds of the authoritarian swamp rats.   They may know that they can not get rid of the guy–at least by now they know that.  But the real message is one for YOU.   The message?   Don’t ever do this again.  If you try, we will destroy you, and anyone connected to you.

Talk about voter suppression!  Something to think about, my friends.   Something to think about…

Be A Fruit Inspector

Years ago, a mentor of mine taught me and my business colleagues that if we were going to be leaders of people that we should learn what it is to be a fruit inspector, not a judge in black robes.

This lesson has completely escaped the MedIa and a very shrill public who seem not to understand a basic botany fact.    The fact is:  a bad tree cannot produce good fruit.   But a good tree can.   So, when in doubt about someone, look to what they produce–the “fruit.”  If it is good fruit, even though you may have a distaste for the person, or his/her appearance, or mannerisms, or leadership style, if it is good “fruit” the tree is good.

Instead, in today’s America, we are being programmed to put on black robes, and judge everyone and everything–based upon our own biases, and in many cases our own ignorance and emotional immaturity.   Make no mistake, when you are “triggered”–as I have covered many times relevant to Propaganda Warfare, and the stimulus-response reaction it produces–it is proof to others that you are not in control of your emotions.   Someone else is.   Who is that?   And what is their motive?

Could it be they want to trick you into believing that “bad” fruit is “good,” and good for you?   They may even look great, sound great, speak smoothly with platitudes galore, but what is their fruit?   Is anything improving?

So, let’s take a look, for example,  at some of the President’s “fruit.”  You have been told repeatedly that he is evil, vile, nefarious, inept, and the worst thing that could have happened to the United States.   Your disdain is so great that you may not want to hear the truth about Operation Crossfire Hurricane.   All right.   Let’s accept that.   But let’s just look then at some of the fruit on the tree of this President so far:

  1.  African-American unemployment is at an all-time low.
  2. Hispanic unemployment is at an all-time low.
  3. Hispanic incomes rising.
  4. Female unemployment is the lowest since 1969.
  5. Income for Americans has risen at least 3%.  (As it continues to rise, the middle class is being rebuilt)
  6. GDP is above 3% when the previous administration prepared us for a new normal of 1-2%, if I remember.
  7. Regulations lifted have allowed companies to expand, and are hiring.
  8. Companies that fled the US for economic reasons are returning.
  9. Mexico is cooperating more than ever on controlling the border to the US, and beginning to tackle the Drug Cartels.
  10. We have full, albeit emotional, attention on our own southern border.
  11. He and the First Lady are attacking the Opioid Epidemic head on.
  12. 3 Million Americans have come off food stamps.
  13. He is working diligently on the Balance of Trade Deficit with China and others.  (Our balance of trade deficit has been a problem since I was a National Debate person debating the issue back in the late 1960’s)
  14. He has brought the N. Korean dictator to the table to negotiate. (The entry point to resolving conflict is in fact communication.   If there is no communication, nothing changes.)
  15. The President of South Korea has publicly stated, and I heard this myself. “You are truly the Peacemaker.”
  16. The Caliphate has been destroyed.  Though Al Qaeda and Isis still exist, the land they took for their Caliphate has been retaken, and many enemy killed.
  17. He has started Opportunity Zones in the inner cities and rural areas where the youth have no economic opportunity and where crime is high. The program is designed to bring business and jobs to these areas, coupled with education, and security.
  18. He has reformed prison sentencing, so that people don’t end up serving a life sentence for a crime that should not carry that. He has worked on in-prison reforms that truly prepare the parolee for a Fresh Start.
  19. He is proposing that the Pell Grants be changed to allow African-Americans and others to use the grant for education which results in high paying jobs. Taking two years, and preparing those who want for jobs in trucking and manufacturing etc.
  20. Overall unnemployment is at an all-time low, in my lifetime.   (By the way, only 1 in 15 of those employed now has two or more jobs. The rest are living on just one job.  I believe that is the current stat.)

Look at it.   We do best when we look, don’t listen.   We can check the stats with the various government agencies who track the results of programs.

So, how’s the fruit on the tree?

4th of July Addendum–Strong Stuff

Published July 9, 2019 / by Lee Kessler / 6 Comments on 4th of July Addendum–Strong Stuff

First, I appreciate the extraordinary amount of positive feedback and sentiment I received regarding my 4th of July post.  It is appreciated.  Especially since several of you felt it was a challenge as well.  That said, I have something to add relevant to the news that day and the following.

Now, I expected the insanely compromised media to hate the 4th of July Celebration in Washington.   Their predictability borders on the worst that could be said of any actor or writer.  They are a cliché, and everything they do recently demonstrates it.

Take the 4th of July celebration.   I personally watched it, after I had posted my last Blog.   I found it moving, and fun.   It was a celebration.   Now, I know my history a bit.  And the Doolittle Raid was over Tokyo, if I remember, not against the Nazis.  So, the President and his speechwriters got that wrong, and perhaps other things.   I don’t know.   Because that was not the point of the vitriol that came his way the following day.

Obviously small-minded people will harp on such an obvious mistake, or mistakes.  No small-minded person would have been moved by the personal tributes the President gave to specific Americans who were singled out for their contribution to the American story. That, by the way, was the bulk of the celebration.   It was an honoring of free Americans and many who did extraordinary things. But, as I said, small-minded, small-spirited people would not care about that.

No, the main attack was predictably on the honoring of our armed services, the celebration of the branches of the military, the role these people have played in our freedom, and the military flyovers etc.   Comparisons have been drawn by the media to vile dictators.

Now, I understand you may hate Donald Trump.   You may hate America even.   But before you get on your “Intellectual” high horse and condemn his speech writers for their understanding of history, consider this:  to not place the armed services in the celebration, along with the fireworks that our forefathers envisioned, is to reveal a colossal ignorance of what happened on July 4, 1776.

When those 56 men signed that document–in case you missed it–they were signing their own death warrants, and they were beginning a revolution!!!   I don’t know how the NY Times, CNN, MSNBC, or any other pea brain missed it.  This was not a church social.   This was not a classroom debate. This was not an office Super Bowl pool.  This was the real deal.  And to bring it off, it would require MILITARY ACTIVITY AT A LEVEL NOT SEEN IN THE WORLD UP TO THAT POINT.

(Please forward this part to any media people you know, or any blowhards.  I am tired of being berated and belittled for enjoying a celebration of what my ancestors commenced that day.   And I am tired of cowardly bullies trying to rain on everyone’s parade. I make my living as a public speaker, and I don’t care if someone flubs a teleprompter reading, or if there is a gaff now again.   Anyone who actually works for a living talking live in front of others has had an embarrassing moment or two. So, grow up.)

Because it was a military endeavor that began that day, it would be almost a dereliction of duty not to honor the flag, the military branches, and salute them in some way for what Washington’s Army did then, and for what all of our military have done since then to make it possible for these ignorant people to pontificate from their self-righteous perches.

A 4th of July celebration that includes our military is an appropriate thing.   And, if you think otherwise, I suggest you stop talking about whether Donald Trump’s speech had an historical inaccuracy in it.  For all you are revealing is a complete ignorance of what really happened that day, and what we are celebrating and honoring still to this day. If your ignorance had prevailed back then, there would be no United States of America, and there would be precious few free people anywhere.

So, to the critics, I give you an F in history.  Forget the Doolittle Raid.  You missed the whole point of who we are and where we came from. You are engaged in a race to the bottom of the class.   God help any who read you, listen to you, emote with you, and form their opinions on the basis of your pitiful ignorance.

Now, this is about the angriest you will see me.  For those of you who prefer I be more gracious, too bad.   Today, I am John Adsit’s great, great, great, great, great, great granddaughter. And, that’s my story, and I’m sticking to it!

What is Courage?

As we watched the inspiring ceremony in Normandy yesterday commemorating the 75th anniversary of D-day, I was struck by something one of the surviving veterans said.

First–I hope you have your Millennial children and friends watch the whole ceremony.   Go to YouTube and watch ALL of President Trump’s speech.   This is not a political comment.  Rather, he tells the story of the monumental day from the United States’ perspective.  And watch Macron of France share the French perspective of that day.

This 75th anniversary is the most important one–in my opinion.  In 25 years we will acknowledge the 100th anniversary of a day that saved the world.   But, no one will be alive who landed on those beaches that day.   This was why yesterday–with 50 plus veterans of that fateful day in attendance–was so special.   It is our last time to see these men.   It is the last time to show our young the real living, breathing, heroes who made it possible for us to still be living free.

One of the “90-something” veterans was complimented by a journalist for being such a hero.  And the elderly man responded humbly, “I was not a hero.   These men–he pointed to the gravestones of those who fell that day–were heroes.   I was scared to death, afraid.  I was not the hero.”

To me, he was self-deprecating because he had been afraid.   I think any one of us would say, if you weren’t terrified that day as you landed, you didn’t know what was going on.

So, to that fine man, I would say this, “Why you are a hero is that you pressed on–despite the terror.  You made it to the beach, and off the beach, and on to victory in Europe.   Each one of you who made it to the beach gave hope to the next terrified American who was about to exit his boat, and wade into the deep water, under withering fire, and devastating death around him.  Fear and adrenalin and an innate sense of duty and purpose carried you off that beach and into history. No sir, you ARE a hero!”

That reminded me of something a colleague of mine discovered when his son was studying to be an Eagle Scout.

They were asked the definition of courage and bravery.   Father and son both responded:   having no fear.   And the Scoutmaster said, “No.   Courage is not the absence of fear.  It is the willingness to press on–despite the fear.”

Fear is a human emotion.  But when one acts–in the face of fear–to save a fellow countryman, to do what’s right, to face failure, to learn from it and get back up–that is courage.

All of those 150,000 men were brave and what they did, while terrified, made them heroes forever.

The same is true for you.   Fear is but an emotion.  Moving forward anyway, in order to do what is right, that is courage.

Do not expect victory without fear.  Do not expect growth without anxiety.   Even if the worst is facing you, do what is right for the greatest number, and if you must harm, do the least harm possible for the least number.  That is courage.   And that is also peace of mind!

 

All Roads Lead to Rome, Part 3

Remember, we are trying to triangulate and find the real life “Samir,” the fictitious villain of “White King and the Doctor.”   In the last part, I was tracking along a line relevant to the Russia Collusion Investigation.

Well, changing perspective slightly, and looking at attacks upon the President, and the policies of the President, I found some connections you will want to note.   I’m just going to lay out the “cast of characters” that keep cropping up, which I believe connect the  dots.   These people, and who they work with and for, also lead to The Democracy Integrity Project.

One of the other most emotional times for Americans this past year was the confirmation hearing of Judge Kavanaugh, and the accusations made by Christine Blasey Ford.   Regardless of your political beliefs and who you support, please pay attention here.   If you know the Rule of Law, and Due Process, you know something went radically wrong.  So, here’s the cast of characters involved in that play:

Michael Bromwich, who is a former Inspector General for Bill Clinton, and who prosecuted Oliver North, now represents former Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe, who has been fired, and who is likely under criminal investigation.  He has another illustrious client as well–Christine Blasey Ford.  That is an odd intersection of interests.

In addition, David Laufman, former Deputy Attorney General for Counter-Intelligence–and one of the lawyers, along with Peter Strzok, who interviewed Hillary Clinton in the email investigation–represents Monica McClean, Christine Blasey Ford’s best friend who allegedly helped her put together her letter that started the Kavanaugh debacle.

You can probably guess what her former profession was.   Ms. McClean is a former FBI Investigator and Public Affairs person.  That is Public Relations related, and she currently runs a Public Relations and Consulting Firm in Washington, DC.  She and Laufman also run in the circle of Strzok, and Bruce Ohr, one of the top 4 DOJ execs.

This is a cozy little group, isn’t it?  Roads are leading to “Rome.”   So, how does Daniel J. Jones fit in?   He is the former top aide to Senator Diane Feinstein, through whom the Blasey Ford letter was leaked,   He was a Clinton volunteer back in the day, who graduated to–you guessed it–FBI Investigator, specializing in International Investigations and Counter-Intelligence.

Not only was he trusted by Senator Feinstein, but he was trusted by Senator John McCain.  We are almost at “Rome.”

Jones started The Democracy Integrity Project in 2017 and it feeds information/disinformation about investigations and dirt to the national media, to Congressional investigators–the folks members of Congress rely upon and trust to give them accurate information so they can fulfill their Constitutional duties–and to Federal Law Enforcement. I believe the briefings are daily.  (Remember:   Garbage In, Garbage Out)

He has apparently hired Glenn Simpson, Christopher Steele, Fusion GPS.   Clapper and Brennan I am quite sure are in the mix since they were linked to the dissemination of the Steele Dossier to Congressmen and women, the Media, and to the FBI.

I will leave it to you to discover for yourself who initially and probably now still funds the organization, which is listed as a non-profit.  Google it.    It’s chilling.

You will find “Samir” camouflaged somewhere in the world of Daniel Jones, in my humble opinion.   He (or she) will be a public relations and spin guy, He will be in the shadows, hiding in plain sight much like I theorized Ayman Al-Zawahiri was hiding in Switzerland, using a double identity as Phillipe Monet, philanthropist and humanitarian.   Look for someone in this merry bunch who may be linked to International Humanitarian or Human Rights Organizations. He will be US educated, from Princeton, Yale, Harvard, or some other Ivy League School.  He is not an ideologue.   He is driven totally by power, money, and the love of destruction.  But he talks a good game! His target is the United States itself.  He is accepted as trustworthy by all of this bunch.

And, Director Brennan, for all those who think you are in up to your eyeballs in seditious behavior yourself, you should look especially closely.   Because, “Samir” is your “handler–” whether you know it or not.   You may have masterminded the Russian Hoax, but someone is masterminding you.   Someone much smarter than you.  You should start looking around.

All roads lead to “Rome.” ” Samir’s” there.   His first two Propaganda Warfare hoaxes have proven stunning.   The first one led the US into a 16-year-long war.   The second one almost overthrew the President of the United States, nearly taking down the Presidency.  So, what’s next on “Samir’s” mind?  That question keeps me on my toes.   Other people have and will continue to investigate and sort out the sordid details of what happened here in the United States in the last few years.   I am not the one to do that.   My theories are the speculations of a fiction writer who writes about modern history.   But, before you dismiss fiction writers, relying only on the non-fiction “research” which led to this travesty, you should remind yourself we all would have been better off to have listened to Tom Clancy.   In at least two of his novels, he nailed what happened to us.

My writing style is different from Clancy, but I have been compared to him.   That’s humbling.   Actually, I am just an American writer–a descendant of a Patriot in the American Revolution– who is acting like a sleuth, ferreting out some real vermin.

We all need to be patriots now, I think.   I am always an optimist.    And I know these people lose in the end.  So, the road may be bumpy right now, but as you can see a lot of these “characters” have been screwing up our Republic for quite some time with their delusional, ambitious games.   Newsflash:   they lose!
