Pence Chief of Staff: Trump Is Getting Impeached 'Because He's Winning

President Donald Trump is being impeached "because he's winning in so many ways," Marc Short, Vice President Mike Pence's chief of staff, told Meet the Press on Sunday. "The reason this president is being impeached is because he’s winning in so many ways," Short told Chuck Todd. "He won on taxes, the economy is booming, there’s record low unemployment, the military is getting re-funded, we’re striking new trade deals." "It goes back to what Congressman Al Green said. He said we have to impeach this president or else he could get re-elected," Short added.

Pence's chief of staff also predicted that Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) will come to an agreement on the Senate impeachment trial. He also slammed House Speaker Nancy Pelosi over her decision to not to send articles of impeachment over to the U.S. Senate after the House of Representatives approved them.

"It's a really untenable position, we think, for Speaker Pelosi to say, 'This president is such a clear and urgent danger to the world, to the globe, that we have to basically trample his constitutional rights, to force a quick impeachment' and then say, 'Well, we're going to hold up impeachment papers and articles of impeachment to the Senate,'" Short said. "How can you possibly justify the contrast — to say, 'This is urgent,' to then say, 'well, we’ll have to wait and see?'"

McConnell has refused to take the impeachment seriously, saying it is the job of the Senate to check the passions of the House. Since Pelosi and the Democrats impeached Trump due to outrage rather than a true impeachable offense, he suggested the Senate should reject the impeachment out of hand. Short said Trump is "open to witnesses" in the Senate trial, but added that the American public does not want an extended proceeding.

Since Pelosi has refused to send the articles of impeachment on to the Senate, Trump is considering claiming he never actually got impeached. Even so, the vote did happen and Democrats are not likely to give up. No matter what happens, the president can claim — as Marc Short did — that he is getting impeached because he is winning on so many important issues.

Against all Odds – Three FBI Officials Quietly Working to Reveal the Truth…

I’m not sure exactly who they are, and there’s a possibility they might just be one person; however, it appears there are three distinct FBI officials engaged in an overall investigative capacity, attempting to break the truth through the corrupt machinery. Each individual is noted within a specific event or outcome. Hopefully AG Bill Barr has tasked his deputy James Rosen to hold an honest ‘climate assessment‘ discussion with these individuals.

The first honorable FBI Agent is the FBI official who enhanced the DOJ sentencing memo for James Wolfe. The DOJ prosecution, namely DC U.S. Attorney Jessie K Liu -possibly following instructions from Rod Rosenstein- was trying to cover-up the classified intelligence leak of SSCI Security Director James Wolfe in order to protect powerful Senators. One FBI agent was obviously not happy with that DOJ leadership decision and seeded the DOJ ‘sentencing memo’ with a key sentence that exposed the cover-up. For him or her we are thankful. That sunlight, though unsuccessful in stopping the corrupt cover-up, provided just enough undeniable evidence to highlight the severity of a cover-up initiated by those running the DOJ in 2018. We note everyone associated with that decision has since been removed.

♦The second FBI official to note, might actually be a key top-level DOJ official – though that seems less likely. The second FBI official is however high ranking. The high ranking FBI position is likely because the top level security clearance was needed for this FBI agent to travel to CIA headquarters and review the CIA operation file on Carter Page. The CIA file on Carter Page included a copy of the return memo to the FBI outlining Mr. Page as a source for CIA information involving various Russian individuals. That CIA return memo was edited by corrupt FBI lead lawyer Kevin Clinesmith to hide Page’s action on behalf of the CIA. The FBI Agent who saw that memo in Page’s file then compared it to the memo in the FBI operational file on Carter Page. The difference on the exact same memo between the CIA file and the FBI file led to the discovery of Clinesmith manipulating internal documents to frame Carter Page. That Senior FBI officer is another truth-teller.

♦The third FBI agent, perhaps a career FBI administrative officer, who is clearly working to bring sunlight despite being surrounded by corruption, was involved in the actual text writing of the IG FISA abuse report itself. Whether on assignment for the FISA review, or whether an administrative investigator attached to the Office of Inspector General, this isn’t the first time we have noticed a very specific inclusion of word choices that helped bring sunlight to an intentionally opaque report.

CTH will not identify the signs, except to say that each of them was/is irrelevant for the context of the written text. However, their inclusion was/is an obvious breadcrumb trail from inside the machine. ♦ I share this research perspective publicly, optimistically, because not everyone is corrupted. However, the non-corrupt middle-tier appear to be working to expose the truth against the efforts of the top-tier FBI offices trying to bury it. I’m certain if the top tier was cleared out (with an aggressive posture) those middle-tier honest-brokers could greatly help AG Bill Barr…. IF, Barr is genuinely disposed therein. However, AG Bill Barr’s continued defense and support for FBI Director Chris Wray, Deputy FBI Director David Bowditch and FBI legal counsel Dana Boente; in addition to his former -perhaps reformed- impression of U.S. Attorney Jessie Liu, runs counter to the honest administration of justice. 2020 is only five days away….It’s time for Attorney General Bill Barr to start calling the baby ugly. Bill Barr will either be part of the solution, or he’ll endeavor to covering up the problem out of some misguided loyalty to those corrupt officials around him… there really is no middle ground.

Twitter Bug Exposed Millions of User Phone Numbers

A security researcher was able to use a bug in the Twitter Android app to identify millions of Twitter users, connecting their phone numbers to their Twitter IDs. The exploit could expose failures in the company's two-factor authentication system and give other security developers pause. According to a TechCrunch report, the researcher, Ibrahim Balic, created randomized lists of phone numbers and sent them to Twitter.

“If you upload your phone number, it fetches user data in return,” he said. The user data allowed Balic to find phone numbers for many major Twitter "celebrities" including the private number of a "senior Israeli politician." “Upon learning of this bug, we suspended the accounts used to inappropriately access people’s personal information. Protecting the privacy and safety of the people who use Twitter is our number one priority and we remain focused on rapidly stopping spam and abuse originating from use of Twitter’s APIs,”

a Twitter spokesperson said.

The bug exposed user accounts when Balic uploaded millions of phone numbers and asked Twitter to match them with users. Typically this interface is used only when new users install the app on their phone but, using a set of API calls, Balic was able to spoof this behavior. The resulting breach of privacy - essentially connecting real numbers to real Twitter handles - could reduce the efficacy of two-factor authentication schemes popular on financial applications and wallets.

Pathetic, the number is that low, makes me wonder how many have been prosecuted unlawfully just to make the case stick or shouldn't have been in the first place.
