The Government’s Spying on Candidate Trump in the DOJ’s Project ‘Crossfire Hurricane’ Started the Same Day Clinton Lawyers, Fusion GPS and Christopher Steele Met at Law Firm Perkins Coie

As Larry Johnson reported last night at TGP, the Sussman indictment yesterday indicates there may be more to the Durham investigation. But also, the indictment notes a very special date in 2016, July 29th.

Larry Johnson noted last night that there may be more to the Durham indictment with the potential for indictments related to abusing the use of government data and potential conspiracy charges for more than Sussman.

Twitter sleuth Stephen McIntyre adds more to the Sussman indictment in a Twitter thread last night. He notes that Sussman’s work was billed to the Clinton campaign.

McIntyre notes that Durham omits from his indictment that in a meeting on July 29, 2016, with Sussman and Fusion GPS, Christopher Steele of Orbis was also there.

Right after WikiLeaks published the DNC emails, on July 29, 2016, a meeting was held with Sussman and Marc Elias from Perkins Coie, Fusion GPS goons, and Christopher Steele. This also happened to be the day that Crossfire Hurrican opened – the beginning of the use of US government personnel and systems to spy on candidate Trump.

Crowdstrike was used to claim Russia hacked the DNC and gave the hacked emails to WikiLeaks. This was a lie as noted in Crowdstrike CEO’s testimony in front of Congress. Within minutes of Crowdstrike being hired, Russian state hackers were purported to partake in this spectacle.

Surely it is no coincidence that the politically corrupt investigation into the the Trump team, ‘Crossfire Hurricane’ originated the same day that Clinton attorneys met with Fusion GPS and Christopher Steele, July 29, 2016.

Conrad Black: "None Of This Can Go On Much Longer"

There has been considerable discussion in the past couple of months about the rate of inflation in the United States, and polls now show that 85 percent of Americans are concerned about inflation. This is a demonstration once again of the wisdom of the average person.

While the United States, and to a lesser extent the West generally, is being subjected to a variety of threats and disappointments, and there is a natural aversion to highlighting additional negative developments that could be looming, it would be comforting if we heard anything from the secretary of the Treasury or the chairman of the Federal Reserve about the current apparition of a gigantic financial bubble over the United States.

In the past year, the United States has had a money supply increase of 25 percent, an unprecedented event. What was originally billed as slight and self-correcting inflation increases are now gathering into a continuing and growing storm cloud, only thinly disguised by the unrepresentative composition of the official consumer price index. Year over year, hourly pay scales have risen by 7.5 percent, new cars cost 10 percent more, used cars and new homes are 20 percent more expensive, and rental accommodations are 12 percent more costly.

These increases all fall short of the money supply increase, and they all appear to be stoking up rather than settling down.

There has been a gradually rising 12-year buildup in equities values, only briefly interrupted by the tight V of the COVID interruption. This rise has been sustained by extraordinarily low interest rates, which are going to become extremely difficult to maintain as the rate of inflation increases; we can’t really expect the lending community to lose money and to loan money at rates below the rate of inflation.

The excellent stock market performance of these past years and the problem that now impends are based in part on the extraordinarily high levels of profitability in the American corporate sector. Where once the chief preoccupation of executives and directors of large companies was market share, it has latterly been profitability, and this has been assisted by the official American toleration of a higher-than-usual level of cartelism and informal price-fixing within industries. This has generated very high profits, and these have been powerfully reenlisted in the economy, but by any traditional standards, current American levels of profitability cannot be sustained.

These levels have reached unheard of proportions and are 80 percent above those in the rest of the world. The most remarkable characteristic of this market is that about 85 percent of this super-profit the United States is enjoying is produced by a small number of huge high-tech companies. There never has been anything like this in economic history: Apple has the largest market capitalization of any company in the world, and its sales have risen by 50 percent in the past year.

Normally, companies of this immense size are mature and do very well with a sales increase of between 5 and 10 percent a year. The great U.S. high-tech companies retain an immense potential for sales and profit increases, but no company in any market can run up 50 percent increases indefinitely long after it has become the largest corporation in the world.

American inventiveness, optimism, competence, the Trump tax system, and the fact that the United States has about two-thirds of the world’s most advanced research universities are all factors that militate in favor of the continuation of this trend, but it’s impossible to imagine that it can continue at this rate indefinitely.

Many traditions have been broken and buried by changes and innovations, but J.P. Morgan’s famous assertion that “like a tree, the market cannot grow to the sky” retains some validity.

Because of the extreme vulnerability of almost the entire U.S. public sector to increases in interest rates, that tool, which was always a blunderbuss anyway, of increasing interest rates to reduce demand and ultimately reduce inflation, although each one-point rise in the lending rate initially adds half a point of inflation, is not really available to managers of fiscal and monetary policy now.

Capitol Police Chief Warns of Threats Ahead of Rally in Support of Protesters Charged in 6 Jan. Riot

The event is planned by the non-profit organisation Look Ahead America, which is led by Matt Braynard, who briefly worked on Donald Trump’s presidential campaign. Braynard said that the rally is aimed at protesting the treatment of nonviolent individuals arrested during the storming of the Capitol on 6 January.

US Capitol Police Chief Thomas Manger warned that some threats had been made regarding the upcoming "Justice for J6" rally in Washington, DC. Law enforcement have upped security as they fear a repetition of the incidents that occurred at the beginning of the year.

A tall fence, which was installed around Capitol grounds in the aftermath of the storming of the building, has reappeared in the US capital.

The measures were introduced after the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) warned about the potential for violence during the upcoming demonstration, which is scheduled for 18 September.

"We are aware of a small number of recent online threats of violence referencing the planned rally, including online discussions encouraging violence the day before the rally", reads a DHS intelligence briefing obtained by CNN.

The briefing said that around 700 people are expected to attend the event and noted that violence could break out due to a counter-rally that is scheduled to take place on the same day at Freedom Plaza in Washington.

Eleanor Holmes Norton, a delegate to the United States House of Representatives, said that the security measures that have been introduced in Washington, DC are "an overcompensation for the" 6 January incident.

"It looks like the authorities, especially the Capitol Police, have been taken aback by how unprepared they were on Jan. 6. So now they're coming back overprepared", she said.

Matt Braynard, whose organisation is planning the "Justice for J6", rally said that the demonstration will be peaceful and that participants will cooperate with law enforcement.
