**ahem*** Here is the answer...... Image
Now VP of Fox Political Content Image
If you remember the 2014 Senate Comprehensive Immigration Reform Effort "Gang-o-Ocho" (the one that cost Cantor his seat to Dave Brat).... It was Bill Sammon who was the DC operative who organized the Fox operation to support it.

Sammon [on behalf of Murdoch] coordinated meetings between Rubio (the aligned pitch man) and several media people. It was a coordinated effort. Tucker Carlson, Bill O'Reilly, Sean Hannity and Neil Cavuto were key.
The Fox Hosts were then given instructions to sell the Senate Bill. This relationship eventually bled into Fox supporting Rubio in the 2016 election. It was a quid-pro-quo.
Fox News' Rupert Murdoch wanted the senate Amnesty bill on behalf of his Wall Street interests. Specifically U.S. Chamber of Commerce President Tom Donohue.

newyorker.com/magazine/2013/…
The plan was interesting because it required the use of Eric Cantor's wife, Diana, who was working for Tom Donohue at the time. ImageImage
Rubio pushed the 2013/2014 Amnesty Bill in congress, and Bill Sammon organized the Fox pundit narrative.

Not surprisingly Bill Sammon's daughter, Brooke, became the Communications Director for Marco Rubio's presidential bid in 2016. Image
Mickey Kaus was chastised by Tucker Carlson, a Fox contributor and now prime-time show host, for writing an article in the Daily Caller outlining the relationship.

kausfiles.com/2015/03/18/fox…
Kaus outlined Rupert Murdoch, his company Fox News, the talking heads under his control and authority, and Murdoch’s request for pro-amnesty propaganda to be broadcast on the network.
Tucker Carlson took down the article from the Daily Caller, and subsequently Mickey Kaus quit in disgust over the agenda-driven editorial decision. Apparently some things are just too sensitive for sunlight and exposure.
Rupert Murdoch, Wall Street, The U.S. Chamber of Commerce and the entire GOPe apparatus -including then House Speaker Paul Ryan- were 100% behind comprehensive immigration reform to include amnesty.

This is the 2013/2014 origin of the Fox/Ryan relationship.
Back to Fox News and their election/debate agenda – The executive in charge of Fox News debate programming, debate questioning and debate structure, as well as all election reporting, is Vice President Bill Sammon. (circled below) Image
The WaPo has an outline describing how Sammon runs the entire show at Fox regarding politics; and how he is the person who Chris Stirewalt [Megyn Kelly], Chris Wallace and Brett Baier directly report to for all issues, construction, and organization.

washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/styl…
Now, take this background information and overlay it against Rupert Murdoch’s response to the 2016 republican debates. [And the attempted hit job on Trump by Kelly]

There is a particular clarity that resonates, no? Image
Mr. Rupert Murdoch, who is also leading the executive decision-making on Fox programming, and giving Sammon his orders, also contracted pollster Frank Luntz to appear on Fox News broadcasting during the 2015/2016 election cycle.

nationaljournal.com/s/617171/frank…
Luntz had sub-contracts with Rubio and a long relationship going back to the Senator’s time in the FL Legis. Rubio has paid Luntz $350,000+ It’s not accidental that Luntz focus groups regularly found Rubio the winner of debate/opinion programming.

breitbart.com/politics/2016/…
Murdoch was intensely against the candidacy of Donald Trump. So much so that he instructed former President of Fox News, Roger Ailes, to shape favorable coverage toward anyone other than Trump, including a request to tilt toward support for H Clinton.

hollywoodreporter.com/news/fox-news-…
...And that, my friends, is why Fox News attempts to undermine President Trump in these election cycles.

Once you see the strings on the marionettes, you can never go back to that time when you didn't see them.

/END Image
Addendum: Here's a more comprehensive expose', for those who are only recently understanding (or seeing) the dynamic.

Feel free to ask @TuckerCarlson all about it.

1) Elevate for a moment. BIG PICTURE

If the 2016 Intelligence Community Assessment and Joint Analysis Report were fabricated USIC intel in order to frame Donald Trump, then the JAR/ICA that led to the expulsion of 35 Russian assets was also a fabrication. Image
2) Using the Durham report, even the Wall Street journal said, […] “All of this suggests that the Mueller probe was as much a cover-up as an attempt to find evidence of collusion.”...

wsj.com/articles/speci…
3) Yes. If the ICA/JAR were manipulated evidence (they were), and John Durham confirmed the Robert Mueller Trump-Russia collusion investigation was based on fraud (it was), then what does that say about the status of things? Image

Am I allowed to be a little bit frustrated... 🙃

1) The "source" was Anthony Weiner's lawyer.

.... who was attempting to leverage them to get favorable treatment for his pervert client.

judiciary.senate.gov/press/rep/rele…Image
2) Notice: “hundreds of thousands of emails turned over by Weiner’s attorney to SDNY”.

Pay super close attention. This is not an outcome of a New York Police Dept. raid on Anthony Weiner. This is Weiner’s attorney going to the U.S. attorney and voluntarily turning over emails. The emails were not turned over to the FBI in New York, the actual emails were turned over to the U.S. Attorney in the Southern District.

Key point here: Weiner’s attorneys turned over “emails”.Image
3) We already pieced this together 7 years ago.

Grassley needs to overlay the Strzok/Page text messages to the OIG report and the newly released "Clinton Annex."

1) It's going to be Tulsi Gabbard vs Tom Cotton!

[Patriots vs Sea Island]

Remember this.

SSCI Chairman Cotton is assembling his weapons right now, he has no choice - Cotton accepted the role. Tom Cotton is the "hand" of the Intelligence Community. Image
2) It's going to be bloody, brutal, vicious and one of the most consequential counter attacks in modern political history that few Americans will appreciate.

It's way over there.... on the beach.... far from view... far away from the crowd.... and it's going to be ugly.
3) She's doing this. But few, very few can actually see and understand what Tulsi is doing. I wrote the roadmap possibilities a year ago.

Compare what you see now, to this 👇. You will understand.

1) You guys know the background.  You know the context. You know the history.  You know all the nuances and Machiavellian manipulations that have brought us to this very specific moment. Image
2) Now, you are President Donald Trump and you are in a conversation with Vladimir Putin; a geopolitical ‘adversary’ whose current status was created by the same intelligence system operators that created your defined ‘enemy’ status within your own country.  You and Putin were both targeted by the same intelligence system, the CIA.Image
Image
3) Vladimir Putin does not view Americans as his enemy. Vladimir Putin views the CIA as his enemy.

President Putin is essentially ambivalent to your targeted position, but defines his adversary as your Central Intelligence Agency.  

You want to cut the Gordian knot, change the geopolitical world, create a strategic alignment; but to do that you need Putin to accept you do not view him as the enemy.  You also need to prove you have control over the apparatus he views as a threat. 

How do you prove you have control over the agency?Image

1.) As DNI Mrs Tulsi Gabbard has:

♦ chased down intelligence community leakers,
♦ released the JFK files,
♦ released Joe Biden’s domestic terrorism surveillance plan,
♦ intercepted an NIC plot to impeach President Trump (confirmed by Rubio),
♦ taken control of the Presidential Daily Briefing,
♦ and more recently begun to confront the weaponized corruption within the IC Inspector General organization.

These are actions, not words, and those actions speak boldly.  Suffice to say, her effectiveness has placed a target on her back.
2) Chased down intel community leakers.

3) Released the JFK files and released the Joe Biden domestic terrorist surveillance program.
