Radicals, Resistance, and Revenge

by Jeanine Pirro

  He could be charged under the same statutes for his false testimony about Loretta Lynch’s directing him to call the Clinton investigation a “matter,” unless it turns out she’s the one lying, in which case that count would be charged against her, not him.

  The Deep State continues to point fingers at each other: Comey at Brennan, Brennan at Comey, Comey at Rosenstein, Rosenstein at Comey, Comey at Lynch, Lynch at Comey, and of course, Comey and former Acting Director of the FBI Andrew McCabe pointing the finger at one another.

  McCabe remains under investigation for lying under oath about how an FBI investigation into the Clinton Foundation ended up in the Wall Street Journal.20 He also told the Office of the Inspector General that Comey approved of his leaking the story to the media, which Comey denies. So, one of them is lying about that, too.

  McCabe’s allegedly false statements expose him to charges under 18 US Code §1621 and 18 US Code §1001. He can do all the whining he wants, write all the self-aggrandizing books and editorials he wants, and point the finger at as many of his co-conspirators as he wants. The bottom line is he lied under oath, not once, but on at least three separate occasions.21 The only question regarding this liar and leaker is: Why is he still walking the streets while Michael Cohen rots in jail and Roger Stone awaits trial?

  Let’s not forget about our Trump-hating—Trump voter-hating lovebirds—Peter Strzok and Lisa Page. They didn’t just demonstrate conflicts of interest by texting their hatred of Donald Trump to each other while Strzok led the collusion hoax investigation and Page was an FBI lawyer assigned to the case. They also may have materially interfered with the investigation into the Hillary Clinton email server. The House Republicans’ criminal referral alleges they “eliminated evidence that Mrs. Clinton compromised high-level communications.”

  Strzok also told Page via text that “senior officials” had decided to obscure President Obama’s role in the investigation by calling him “another senior government official.” But by the time Comey delivered his infamous press conference on July 5, 2016, all references to that senior government official had vanished from the report.22

  All of this exposes Strzok and Page to 18 US Code §1505 and 18 US Code §1515(b), which deal with obstruction of proceedings before departments, agencies, and committees and acting with an improper purpose, personally or by influencing another, including making a false or misleading statement, or withholding, concealing, altering, or destroying a document or other information, respectively. What that means in plain English is Strzok and Page tried to prevent Congress from finding out the Hillary Clinton investigation was a sham and Obama was involved in seeing it didn’t go anywhere.

  The DOJ and FBI leadership never seriously considered bringing charges against Hillary. Their investigation was a joke, done only to promote the appearance of justice for a public outraged at the latest Clinton crime to go unpunished. Thanks to additional Strzok-Page emails obtained by Judicial Watch via a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit in June of this year, we can now confirm the FBI was only going through the motions investigating her.

  The FBI doesn’t record most interviews it conducts. Before 2014, it never recorded them.23 When the FBI conducts an interview with a subject, the agent takes notes and then produces an official record of the interview on Interview Report Form FD-302, universally referred to simply as a “302.” Well, these newly obtained emails show that not only did the FBI give Clinton special treatment by giving her lawyers advanced notice before filing the 302 of Clinton’s interview and rushing its release in advance of the election, but that as late as August 5, 2016—a month after James Comey’s press conference indicating the FBI would not recommend charges against Clinton—at least four other 302s related to the case had not even been written.24

  Don’t let the official jargon and mundane-sounding government form numbers distract you from the importance of this new information. Based on my own experience as a prosecutor on cases in which FBI agents have been involved, I know how important that 302 report is in terms of evidence at trial. It is the document that will be entered into evidence and will back up the agent’s verbal testimony. An FBI agent can expect to be asked by defense lawyers on cross-examination very precise questions about the process of producing a 302, particularly whether the 302 was written soon after the interview, while the agent’s recollection would presumably be freshest.

  Suffice it to say a defense lawyer would have a field day with a document produced a month after the interview, after the agent(s) who conducted it had presumably interviewed many other subjects during their normal course of business. Why would an FBI agent be so careless about producing arguably the most important documents in his or her investigation?

  Answer: they knew all along Hillary Clinton would never be indicted.

  Of course, there was long precedent in letting Hillary Clinton slide in the Obama Department of Justice. Let’s not forget Loretta Lynch threatened a former FBI informant with legal action if he testified to Congress about his knowledge of fraudulent dealings connected to the Uranium One deal. This is the deal Secretary of State Hillary Clinton signed off on, allowing a Russian government–owned company to buy up 20 percent of US uranium production capacity after several shady contributions to the Clinton Foundation, which can be traced directly to Russia.25

  House Republicans want Lynch investigated for possible violation of 18 US Code § 1505, which makes “by threats or force, or by any threatening letter or communication influences, obstructs, or impedes or endeavors to influence, obstruct, or impede” an inquiry or investigation by either House of Congress a felony. That would be in addition to lying to Congress about her instructions to Comey regarding calling the Clinton investigation “a matter,” if it turns out Comey is telling the truth for once about that.

  They were all protecting Hillary Clinton, whose crimes over the past several decades put them all to shame. How many times will this woman violate the law in the light of day and walk away unscathed with that ear-to-ear grin? One has to wonder if Hillary’s smiling because she got away with it or laughing at our stupidity. That she violated federal law in putting classified information on her email server pales in comparison to her role in the Uranium One deal. And we now know it was Hillary Clinton and the DNC who colluded with the Russians to influence the 2016 elections. They paid laundered money through Fusion GPS to hire foreign agent Christopher Steele to get dirt on candidate Donald Trump from… the Russians!

  It is noteworthy that Steele has not set foot in the United States since all of this began. The prosecutor in me tells me he fears an arrest. Reports are that US investigators will go to London to interview him there within weeks of this writing.26 But where is Glenn Simpson of Fusion GPS in all of this? I want to know what he paid Nellie Ohr to do while her husband former Associate Deputy Attorney General Bruce Ohr, was having back-alley discussions with Christopher Steele, while the FBI had already cut ties. Also, what trips did Nellie take while working for Fusion? What is the backstory here? While we investigated Trump and dragged his son before congressional committees over and over, the key players in this are not on record. Christopher Steele hasn’t been heard from.

  Finally, we have the most egregious crime committed in furtherance of this conspiracy, submitting Steele’s unverified and false dossier to the FISA court to obtain warrants to spy on Carter Page. This is something every member of the conspiracy had a hand in, including but not limited to former FBI Director James Comey, former Acting Director of the FBI Andrew McCabe, former Acting Attorney General Sally Yates, and former Acting Deputy Attorney General Dana Boente, according to the House’s criminal referral.

  For the record, knowingly submitting false evidence to the FISA court, not once, but again and again to get the warrant renewed, exposes these criminals to indictment under 18 US Code § 242, 18 US Codes §1505 and 1515b. But it’s much more than just violation of a statute on the books. This was a direct attack on our democracy and our system of justice. Bo
th the means used and the end to which they were employed constitute a danger to everything that makes America the freest country in the world.

  Is This Still the Land of the Free?

  Step back and think about what these people did and imagine it wasn’t done to Donald Trump or any other high-profile person. They took a phony dossier filled with allegations so ridiculous that any reasonable person would be suspicious of them and submitted it to a secret court—which we’ve already seen is teed up for corruption—in order to obtain a warrant to conduct surveillance on an American citizen. They used this obviously phony evidence from a source they knew to be unreliable—had been told by our own State Department he was unreliable—when the law required them to verify their evidence and disclose any exculpatory evidence to the court.

  This is the kind of thing the KGB in the former Soviet Union or Kim Jong-un’s Ministry of State Security (his secret police) would do. You don’t have to like Donald Trump to find this alarming. Can you imagine living in a country where precedents like these are allowed to stand? Forget the “land of the free.” This is the stuff dystopian nightmares are made of.

  You don’t have to support President Trump to condemn the end to which Comey and team employed these corrupt means. They sought to determine who sits in the Oval Office themselves, regardless of the wishes of the people, in whom all power ultimately resides. Even the most virulent anti-Trumper should fear for our country if this conspiracy is allowed to go unpunished. If these Deep Staters are allowed to walk away after attempting to nullify a presidential election, it is not an exaggeration to say this will no longer be a government of the people, by the people, or for the people. This will literally be a blueprint for the next coup.

  Donald Trump was elected because a critical mass of Americans understood they had lost control of the government that was supposed to serve them. They gave Trump the most shocking victory in American history in order to stop those trying to remake their country into something other than the free republic our founding documents say is our birthright. They exercised their ultimate power to restore protection of religious freedom, secure our borders from the Left’s overt attempt to artificially change the demographics of our country, end unnecessary and counterproductive military interventions and confront the real threats from abroad, both economic and military.

  Before and after Donald Trump’s election, this cabal of unelected, elitist conspirators attempted to usurp that power from the people, destroy their duly elected president, and allow the remaking of America to continue, election results be damned. They must be brought to justice or they are going to do it again. Next time, they may succeed.

  CHAPTER FIVE

  Open Season on Conservatives

  I don’t know where you’re reading this book. But if it’s a public place, prepare to duck. These days, you might get something thrown in your face just for owning a copy.

  This is because my picture is on the cover, and I am viewed as a conservative. I support President Donald Trump, and I make no apologies for that. If you’re reading my book, you probably do, too.

  That makes us both targets.

  All over the country, the radical Left has decided that it’s open season on conservatives like us. They now believe that they are allowed to punch us, scream at us, and throw things in our direction without consequence—all for the crime of supporting the President of the United States. They kick us out of their restaurants. They spit on us over the counters of their bars. They declare openly that we are not welcome in their small businesses. And if we dare fight back against them, they call it a hate crime.

  Why, you ask?

  Because we don’t believe babies should be killed after they’ve left their mothers’ wombs. Because we don’t believe we should sit back and do nothing while our country is overrun with criminal illegal aliens. Because we think that the United States of America is a good country full of decent, hardworking people, not a nation full of racists and white supremacists. But most of all, it’s because we have refused to abide the crazed lunatics on the anti-Trump Left—the ones who have been attacking this president at every turn since learning they blew it in 2016.

  While they’ve been rocking back and forth in their padded cells, bouncing off the walls with their straitjackets on, whispering I’m with her, and babbling about Russia collusion, President Trump has been winning, just like he promised he would. Since being elected in the biggest political upset in history, he has made our country safer, richer, and more respected than it has been since World War II. He’s accomplished what no president in history ever has. He has kept his promises and gotten things done.

  For example, President Trump has nominated more conservative judges to the federal bench than any president in recent history. In fact, the only president who ever nominated more was George Washington, and that’s only because he had none to begin with!

  So, when Justice Anthony Kennedy retired and it came time for President Trump to fill his second vacancy on the Supreme Court, liberals lost their minds. Putting Neil Gorsuch on the Supreme Court was fine; they couldn’t stop him from doing that. But two Supreme Court justices? That was simply too much for their addled minds to handle. President Trump could have nominated Mother Teresa to fill that seat and liberals would have complained that she hung out with the wrong people. They would have objected to Jesus Christ himself. Whoever sat behind the desk during that confirmation hearing was in for an all-out assault.

  So, President Trump nominated Brett Kavanaugh, a kind, mild-mannered former lawyer with the Bush administration. He was a shoo-in, already on the Circuit Court of Appeals, just below the Supreme Court. The man’s record was impeccable. He was a beloved coach for his daughter’s softball team. For him, a seat on the Supreme Court would be a well-deserved capstone to a long and prestigious career. You’d have to be a complete psycho to find something wrong with this man.

  Wouldn’t you know, “complete psycho” is the unofficial job description of today’s Democrat party. By the end of Judge Kavanaugh’s confirmation hearing, the loony liberals of the Senate had picked him apart like lions. The media immediately found him guilty in the so-called court of public opinion and demanded that he either give up his nomination or the Senate refuse to confirm him. Brett Kavanaugh was not entitled to the presumption of innocence. He was guilty, for no other reason than the Left did not want another Trump Supreme Court nominee confirmed. Because of their tactics, half the country truly believed that this man was a monster, a raging alcoholic, and—in a development that made my blood boil—a gang rapist.

  Where I come from, that is a serious accusation. I have seen people who really do abuse women in the sick, horrific ways that Brett Kavanaugh was accused of—and worse. I’ve actually spent my life fighting for the rights of abused women and crime victims, long before the #metoo movement.

  When I was an assistant district attorney in Westchester, my first homicide duty call involved a guy (an alleged drug dealer) who was run over three times in the woods. I was the first woman assigned to homicide duty and to make me feel nice and welcome, the cops didn’t even want me at the crime scene. For the next thirty years, I saw darkness and fear. I saw women who were raped and had tree branches or other objects inserted into their vaginas, which had to be surgically removed. I had a little girl cry “Don’t let daddy put his pee-pee in my peachy pie.” I had girls trying to commit suicide by cutting their wrists.

  As a prosecutor, I tried cases of children being thrown up against walls, beaten with baseball bats, and killed. Battered child syndrome, women stabbed to death or decapitated. I watched the skins of babies in hospitals burst like overcooked hot dogs because they had been immersed in scalding water as punishment. My job was to settle their scores.

  And you wonder why I’m a tough bitch? I had to be.

  It can be a very harsh world out there and I, for one, felt it was important to say that victims are people. It’s crazy that it even needed to be said. I even had buttons mad
e that said: “Victims Are People.” I needed to stand up for those who never made the decision to harm another human being or to involve another person in the justice system. I wanted to be part of seeing impartial justice done for them, to help uphold the rule of law to protect the innocent. One of my mantras as the elected Westchester County District Attorney was, “People don’t take crime personally enough.” I wanted jurors to take it personally. I wanted them to feel the pain of what the victim went through, the person who didn’t deserve it or ask for it.

  Yet, despite all that, I know how important it is to maintain the rule of law and let facts, not passion, not emotion, determine the course of justice. Every state constitution, as well as the federal, contains a bill of rights. Every defendant is entitled to a legal presumption of innocence, to not be deprived of life, liberty, or property without due process of law, to be protected from unreasonable searches and seizures, as well as from involuntary admissions or confessions.

  When I watched Dr. Christine Blasey Ford testify about the terrible things that had been done to her all those years ago, I was moved. I don’t know how you couldn’t be. She seemed to be a credible witness, and most were tempted to believe every word she said.

  Perhaps Dr. Ford believes the assault happened the way she said it did. But did it? Of course not. There were simply too many inconsistencies to ignore. Had I been a prosecutor presented with Ms. Ford’s complaint, I doubt I would have taken her case to trial. There were too many problems. She couldn’t remember the fundamentals: whose house it was, where it was, when the party was, how she got to the house or how she got home. She waited thirty years without telling her mother, a friend, a high school counselor, or anyone else, before now. When she did tell a therapist in 2012 that something happened to her, it appears she never mentioned Brett Kavanaugh’s name, despite her later claim that she had. At the time, Brett Kavanaugh’s name was everywhere in the press.
