I’ve been thinking a lot about the Wizard of Oz this past day. nytimes.com/2019/07/24/us/…
The country asked Bob Mueller to do a nigh impossible job: Explore a possible conspiracy that, if established, would rank among history’s most consequential intrigues. Lead this criminal investigation into your boss, who (absurdly) can’t be charged with a crime no matter what...
Don’t talk about anyone who isn’t charged, but explain to us the higher mysteries of our resiliently secretive, fraudster president—despite his present immunity from charges. Clean out, somehow, a White House filled to the moldings with corruption
The sheer enormity of the task conveyed a presumption of great abilities on the person chosen to do it.
You get a troubling set of questions when you start wondering about the man behind the curtain. What if 2y of almost perfect silence in the face of daily savaging from the WH represented not supreme discipline in service of a far-seeing plan, but paralysis in the absence of one?

SDNY’s sentencing memo for Cesar Sayoc, the fanatical Trump supporter who mailed sixteen pipe bombs to the President’s perceived political adversaries and places they’d been. usatoday.com/documents/6209…
It had sort of left my conscious memory that this happened less than a year ago.
The government has surveillance footage it says shows Sayoc watching the consequences of his attack “with a visible smile” before sending more bombs.

DOJ has an opinion that the sitting President can’t be prosecuted for the crimes it has discovered because he’s too busy and anyways Congress can impeach him. justice.gov/sites/default/…
DOJ also has an opinion that it’s unnecessary for Congress ask the prosecutor who investigated some of the President’s crimes any questions, and that this prosecutor may only answer questions from Congress the president has said he is okay with beforehand.
DOJ also has opinions that Congress can’t compel anyone who works or worked for the President to testify, even if they know about the crimes DOJ discovered but can’t prosecute. justice.gov/olc/file/11832… (Conway)

Al Franken could have had his Senate Ethics Committee hearing, had he wanted to, but I think today’s New Yorker piece shows that even now he doesn’t really know what his defense would have been.
”He sees it differently than his accusers, where he remembers what happened at all, and some but definitely not all of them are his political opponents” pretty obviously isn’t enough.
“This conduct, even if true, doesn’t rise to the level of a great senator’s resignation,” could conceivably have more weight, but it’s a value judgment outside the purview of a fact-finding hearing. That’s a case he could’ve made to his caucus, but it seems like p long odds.

If I had hired the #Mueller team as a law firm, and Bob Mueller showed up as lead counsel for me today, I’d be (a) filing a bar complaint for various violations of the Code of Professional Responsibility & (b) suing for legal malpractice. He clearly did not know his case
And, if #Mueller did know his case, he was clearly failing to adhere to so many legal standards that I’ll have to spend the rest of the day cataloging them. It was a disgrace and a political hatchet job.
And if he genuinely did not know the answers he said he didn’t know; or legitimately refused to answer other questions, then #Mueller was engaged in turning upside down American criminal law jurisprudence. Exonerated?

Every single 'dirty' tactic being deployed to stop the growth of this movement.
Ask yourself a very simple question - why?
Why are the biggest media co's in the world attacking us?
Q
lolololol riiiiight....In fact, Comello seemed simply to be a man who lived with his parents and was obsessed with President Trump and a far-right conspiracy theory group called "QAnon," according to documents filed by Comello's lawyer.

washingtonexaminer.com/news/mob-boss-…
all out of ammo: In new court documents, the lawyer for Anthony Comello says he became obsessed by far-right QAnon "conspiracy" theories (that have actually been proving to be true more & more by the day). nytimes.com/2019/07/21/nyr…

Robert S. Mueller, III - Deep State Fix-It Man, Part IV
1. It is important to remember Mueller acts as the Deep State Fix-It man. His worth to the DS is his ability to act as a wall between the facilitators, their nefarious actions, and the wheels of justice.
2. If cover, time and obstruction is what is needed Mueller is the man to do it. His use of disinformation, manipulation of the media, false testimony to Congress, and hiding evidence is well-documented.
3. This is a role he will continue as Director of the FBI for both GWB and Obama administrations; obstructing investigations, making evidence disappear, misrepresenting facts to Congress, the Courts and the public to further the needs of the DS, ...

If we are merely a LARP asking questions on the Chans, why are we being attacked daily by some of the world's biggest media co's, social media co's deliberately applying censorship/banning, shills paid/inserted to disrupt (media matters), blue checkmark coordinated attacks, etc?
All for a '#conspiracy' on the Chans?
All for a '#LARP'?
Why is there a constant flow of disinformation being pushed re: Q?
Example:
#Disinformation push re: #Mueller is a white hat.
FAKE & FALSE narrative.
Think #BLOCKADE.

FYI 15 q posts with BLOCKADE mentioned
When you can't attack the info directly, you attack the source, if that fails, you 'create false misleading info' to discredit knowing 'select' 'unaware' followers would not take the time to self-corroborate the claims (same vehicle/tactics used by #FAKENEWS media).

Conspiracy theorist Jerome Corsi in plea negotiations with Mueller, which could shed light on whether Trump or his advisers were linked to WikiLeaks’ release of hacked Democratic emails in 2016 washingtonpost.com/politics/stone…
"Word is friend in embassy plans 2 more dumps. One shortly after I'm back. 2nd in Oct. Impact planned to be very damaging."

Corsi informed Stone about the planned WikiLeaks Dem email releases 2 months in advance.

And Mueller has the exchange. nbcnews.com/politics/justi…
"Stone responded, "Get to (Assange) [a]t Ecuadorian Embassy in London and get the pending (WikiLeaks) emails."

Corsi passed the request along to conservative author Ted Malloch in London"
