James Comey’s planet is getting noticeably warmer. Attorney General William Barr’s emissions are the suspected cause.

James Comey, a long time benefactor and protector of Hillary Clinton, is nothing if not smug and condescending. Worse than that, since the day that he allowed Crooked Hillary Clinton to walk free in spite of a mountain of evidence, he has considered himself untouchable. But guess what? Attorney General William Barr just touched him., and it’s about to get really bad really fast.

“And this is the writing that was written, MENE, MENE, TEKEL, UPHARSIN. This is the interpretation of the thing: MENE; God hath numbered thy kingdom, and finished it.” Daniel 5:24,25 (KJV)

Set free by the findings of the Mueller Report, President Trump has unleashed his attorney general William Barr, and charged him with investigating the very dubious activities of James Comey. As news of this hit the Internet today, somewhere in a mansion in Chappaqua, NY, an invisible finger was writing on the wall.

James Comey is in trouble and he knows it

FROM THE HILL: Ag William Barr has made plain that he intends to examine carefully how and why Comey, as FBI director, decided that the bureau should investigate two presidential campaigns and if, in so doing, any rules or laws were broken.

In light of this, the fired former FBI director apparently has decided that photos of him on Twitter standing amid tall trees and in the middle of empty country roads, acting all metaphysical, is no longer a sufficient strategy.

No, Comey has realized, probably too late, that he has to try to counter, more directly, the narrative being set by the unsparing attorney general whose words in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee last week landed in the Trump-opposition world like holy water on Linda Blair. Shrieking heads haven’t stopped spinning since.

And so we’ve seen Comey get real busy lately. First he penned a curious op-ed in The New York Times. Then a Times reporter, with whom Comey has cooperated in the past, wrote a news article exposing an early, controversial investigative technique against the Trump campaign in an attempt to get out front and excuse it. Next, Comey is scheduled to be encouraged on a friendly cable news “town hall.”

In the op-ed, Comey trotted out his now-familiar St. James schtick, freely pronouncing on the morality of others. He sees himself as a kind of Pontiff-of-the-Potomac working his beads, but comes across more like an unraveling Captain Queeg working his ball bearings.

Comey adjudged the president as “amoral.” He declared the attorney general to be “formidable” but “lacking inner strength” unlike — the inference is clear — Comey himself. A strategy of insulting the executioner right before he swings his ax is an odd one but, then, Comey has a long record of odd decisions and questionable judgment.

“Amoral leaders [referring to the president] have a way of revealing the character of those around them,” wrote Comey without a hint of irony or self-awareness. Those whom the former FBI director assembled around him probably rue the day they ever met the man. Most are now fired or disgraced for appalling behaviors that Comey found easy to manipulate to advance his decisions.

Then, just to make sure his op-ed was odd-salted to the max, Comey mused that the president “eats your soul in small bites.” OK, let’s step back for a moment: James Comey appears to be in trouble. His strange, desperate statements and behaviors betray his nervousness and apprehension. In a way, it’s hard to watch.

James Comey will claim that everything he did in the FBI was by the book. But after the investigations by Department of Justice Inspector General Michael Horowitz and U.S. Attorney John Huber, along with Barr’s promised examination, are completed, Comey’s mishandling of the FBI and legal processes likely will be fully exposed.

Ideally, Barr’s examination will aggregate information that addresses three primary streams:

The first will be whether the investigations into both presidential nominees and the Trump campaign were adequately, in Barr’s words, “predicated.” This means he will examine whether there was sufficient justification under existing guidelines for the FBI to have started an investigation in the first place. The Mueller report’s conclusions make this a fair question for the counterintelligence investigation of the Trump campaign. Comey’s own pronouncement, that the Clinton email case was unprosecutable, makes it a fair question for that investigation.
The second will be whether Comey’s team obeyed long-established investigative guidelines while conducting the investigations and, specifically, if there was sufficient, truthful justification to lawfully conduct electronic surveillance of an American citizen.
The third will be an examination of whether Comey was unduly influenced by political agendas emanating from the previous White House and its director of national intelligence, CIA director and attorney general. This, above all, is what’s causing the 360-degree head spins.

There are early indicators that troubling behaviors may have occurred in all three scenarios. Barr will want to zero in on a particular area of concern: the use by the FBI of confidential human sources, whether its own or those offered up by the then-CIA director.

Without diving into the weeds, it’s important to understand that FBI counterintelligence investigations generally proceed sequentially from what is called a preliminary investigation or inquiry (PI) to a full investigation (FI). To move from a PI to an FI requires substantial information — predication — indicating investigative targets acted as agents of a foreign power.

This is problematic for Comey in light of Mueller’s findings.

There are strict guidelines governing when the FBI can task a confidential source or a government undercover operative to collect against a U.S. citizen. Normally this is restricted to a full investigation, and normally restricted to the United States, not overseas.

There is a sense that Comey’s team was not checking the boxes, did not have adequate predication, and may have tasked sources before an investigation was even officially opened. Barr should pull case files and dig in on this.

In addition, the cast of characters leveraged by the FBI against the Trump campaign all appear to have their genesis as CIA sources (“assets,” in agency vernacular) shared at times with the FBI. From Stefan Halper and possibly Joseph Mifsud, to Christopher Steele, to Carter Page himself, and now a mysterious “government investigator” posing as Halper’s assistant and cited in The New York Times article, legitimate questions arise as to whether Comey was manipulated into furthering a CIA political operation more than an FBI counterintelligence case.

Some in the media have suggested that the Times article was an attempt by the FBI to justify its early confidential source actions. But current FBI Director Christopher Wray has shown that he would like to excise the cancerous tumor that grew during Comey’s time and not just keep smoking. It’s hard to imagine current FBI executives trying to justify past malfeasance.

James Comey is right to be apprehensive. He himself ate away at the soul of the FBI, not in small bites but in dangerously large ones. It was a dinner for one, though: His actions are not indicative of the real FBI. The attorney general’s comprehensive examination is welcome and, if done honestly and dispassionately, it will protect future presidential candidates of both parties and redeem the valuable soul of the FBI.

Huge Banner Declaring ‘Trump Or Death’ Dropped During The Playing Of The National Anthem At Yankee Stadium Last Night Signals ‘Civil War’ 2024

A ‘Trump or Death’ banner at Yankee Stadium last night points to a very contentious 2024 presidential election that just might end in all-out civil war

Donald Trump is facing the battle of his life, and indeed for his life, with a mind-numbing 91 criminal charges across four jurisdictions — Georgia, Florida, New York, and the District of Columbia. He has three trial dates set for 2024 so far. And all this is unfolding as he runs for the presidency again. How is his voter base reacting to all this? If the ‘Trump or Death’ banner that was unfurled during the playing of the National Anthem at last night’s Yankees game is any indication, buckle up and prepare for war. Civil war.

“When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn.” Proverbs 29:2 (KJB)

NTEB has told you for many years now that the administration of Barack Obama and Joe Biden set the stage for the coming Civil War 2.0 here in America, and as we reach the halfway point of Obama’s Third Term, things are rapidly reaching the proverbial boiling point. How will it all end up? Only the Lord knows for sure, but as far as the ‘handwriting on the wall’ goes, we are shaping up to be heading into quite the storm. Welcome to Day 1,271 of 15 Days To Flatten The Curve. All hands on deck.

Trump’s 4 indictments, ranked by the stakes

FROM VOX: Amid all this, Trump is running for president again and facing several challengers in the Republican primary. He retains a massive poll lead. These multiple indictments haven’t hurt him just yet; if anything, they’ve helped, as GOP voters have rallied around him. Currently, Trump’s DC trial is scheduled for March 4, 2024, his New York trial is scheduled for March 25, 2024, and his Florida trial is scheduled for May 20, 2024. The Iowa caucuses are on January 15, 2024, while Nevada and South Carolina’s contests come in February. Super Tuesday is on March 5. Unless one of his challengers surges before March, Trump could have the nomination mostly wrapped up before any of the trials begin.

Even if Trump’s found guilty, or even if he’s jailed, he technically wouldn’t be disqualified from taking office. If he wins the GOP nomination, he’ll still be on the ballot in the general election. So only the voters can stop Trump from becoming president again.

Will Trump go to prison? How long could his sentence be?

The technical “maximum sentence” Trump could face if convicted of everything he’s been charged with is absurdly high — hundreds of years — but in practice, such high sentences are almost never given. Yet — though we’re a long way off from Trump actually being behind bars — he really is in danger of getting serious time.

His eventual sentence, if he is convicted, will depend on several factors in each jurisdiction, none more important than whether the juries will even convict him. The strength of each case and the politics of each area could well influence this — given political polarization, winning a conviction may well be easier in DC and New York than in the mostly conservative area of Florida where he will be tried. (Recall it only takes one holdout juror to block a conviction.)

Then, if he is convicted, what sentence will the judge hand down? Judges have broad discretion to hand down a sentence they feel is appropriate. Judge Tanya Chutkan of DC will hear the federal case against Trump for trying to steal the 2020 election, and she has been the toughest sentencer for January 6 rioters, suggesting she may lean more toward the maximum if given the chance. Meanwhile, Judge Aileen Cannon of Florida has the documents case, and she is a Trump appointee who has already arguably stretched the law to try and help him out; a conviction in her courtroom could be on the lighter side.

Once he’s sentenced, will higher court judges rescue him on appeal? Some of the cases against him use novel legal reasoning that hasn’t been tested before. So far, the Florida case appears the clearest and best grounded in precedent, while the election cases are more novel (no president has tried to do what Trump did before, after all) and the New York hush money case has been somewhat legally controversial. If Trump is convicted, then, his eventual fate may end up in the Supreme Court.

Finally, any Trump sentence could be scuttled if he wins the presidency. If Trump is back in power, he would likely use executive power to end the federal prosecutions against him (the DC and Florida ones), and perhaps even pardon himself. He could not end the state prosecutions — the Georgia and New York ones — but if he wins the presidency, he could likely put off serving prison time until after his term concludes. So, again, it’s the voters who ultimately have the power to maximize, or minimize, Trump’s chances of going to prison. READ MORE

Tucker Carlson Is Saying That The Left Is Planning To Assassinate Donald Trump, Something That We Have Been Telling You Ever Since 2016

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

Twitter podcaster Tucker Carlson is pounding home the theory that Democrats and the D.C. establishment are plotting to kill Donald Trump, this time claiming that we’re ‘speeding toward assassination’ because ‘permanent Washington’ has decided they “just can’t have” Trump as president again.

Back on February 13th of 2016, NTEB departed from the pack of prognosticators and boldly told you that Donald Trump would survive an assassination attempt before going on to win the presidency in a landslide. I told you then, and remind you now today, that we received that information from the Lord. In June of 2016, Michael Steven Sandford, a 20-year-old British citizen who was in the United States illegally after overstaying his visa, pulled a gun out and attempted to kill Donald Trump. He was not successful. In November of that same year, Donald Trump won the presidency with 306 electoral votes compared to 232 for Hillary Clinton. That’s a landslide. We were right on both counts, praise the Lord. And now?

“From whence come wars and fightings among you? come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members? Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not.” James 4:1,2 (KJB)

As I survey the political landscape here in 2023, I am looking at an America that is filled with strife, anger, and division, being led by the spirit of the coming Antichrist. There is violence of speech and violence of action everywhere you look. At this point, making a prediction that Donald Trump will be assassinated by the Left is not only an obvious observation, the surprising thing will be if it doesn’t happen. America, like all the other nations, is preparing itself to receive Antichrist in the days after the Pretribulation Rapture of the Church takes place. I agree with Tucker Carlson 100%, nice to see him catching up.

Tucker Carlson: ‘Obviously’ We’re ‘Speeding Toward Assassination’ of Donald Trump

FROM YAHOO! NEWS: Appearing on anti-woke comedian Adam Carolla’s YouTube show this week, Carlson weighed in on his sitdown with Trump that aired on X, the site formerly known as Twitter, last week. That interview was planned by both Tucker Carlson and Trump—both of whom have their own grievances with Fox News—as counter-programming to the right-wing network’s GOP presidential primary debate that Trump skipped.

At one point, Carolla asked the former Fox News star what “the future holds” and whether “they are going to let Trump be president,” prompting Carlson to begin raging about the impeachments and criminal indictments the ex-president has faced. And, of course, Carlson also tossed in some Jan. 6 trutherism for good measure.

Tucker Carlson Says They Will Do Anything to Stop Trump From Being President Again

“If you begin with criticism, then you go to protest, then you go to impeachment, now you go to indictment and none of them work…What’s next? Graph it out. We are speeding towards… pic.twitter.com/U29a7vMiUe

“They protested him, they called him names. He won anyway. They impeached him twice on ridiculous pretenses,” the far-right nationalist pundit exclaimed. “They fabricated a lot about what happened on January 6 in order to impeach him again. It didn’t work. He came back. Then they indicted him. It didn’t work. He became more popular. Then they indicted him three more times. And every single time his popularity rose.”

According to Tucker Carlson, the only thing left for the so-called ruling class to do is kill Trump.

“If you begin with criticism, then you go to protest. Then you go to impeachment. Now you go to indictment and none of them work. What’s next?” Carlson said, purely just asking questions. “I mean, you know, graph it out, man! We’re speeding toward assassination, obviously, and no one will say that!”

He added: “I don’t know how you can’t reach that conclusion. You know what it’s been like. They have decided—permanent Washington. Both parties have decided that there’s something about Trump that’s so threatening to them, they just can’t have it.” Carlson’s assertion that Washington elites are conspiring to murder the current GOP presidential frontrunner comes after he posed that very same question to Trump during their friendly Twitter chat.

“They started with protests against you, massive protests, organized protests by the left, and then it moved to impeachment twice,” Carlson proclaimed to Trump. “And now indictment. I mean, the next stage is violence. Are you worried that they’re going to try and kill you? Why wouldn’t they try and kill you? Honestly.” READ MORE

Historic Trump Mug Shot From Georgia Jail Of Former 45th President Is Leaked As Stunning Arrest Captures The Attention Of Nation And The World

Donald Trump surrenders at a Georgia jail on charges he sought to overturn his election loss in the 2020 US presidential election

Good, bad or indifferent, former US president Donald Trump continues to make news as he appeared in a Georgia jail today to surrender on charges related to attempting to overturn his election loss in 2020. The question is no longer was the election stolen, but did Trump and his team conspire to overturn the results whether they were fraudulent or not? Me personally, I lean to the side that says the election was stolen using sophisticated ‘backdoor’ technology, millions of dollars, rewriting local election laws, and of course, the Transition Integrity Project. Remember that? Yet another ‘conspiracy theory’ that turned out to be ‘right on the money’.

“When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn.” Proverbs 29:2 (KJB)

What happens now? Obviously Trump will be the Republican nominee, not a one of the current GOP lineup can lay a glove on him. But as far as winning the general election? That remains a far-outside longshot. The main thing that would be in his favor is if enough Republican voters can get irate enough over the very biased and prejudiced treatment Trump is getting to attract voters who stayed home last time. Donald Trump is presumed innocent until proven guilty, but no matter how that shakes out, he is also being railroaded through this whole ‘banana republic’ process.

By early Thursday afternoon, dozens of Trump supporters had gathered outside the jail

FROM THE AP: Trump’s surrender, coming amid an abrupt shake-up of his legal team, follows the presidential debate in Milwaukee the night before featuring his leading rivals for the 2024 Republican nomination — a contest in which he remains the leading candidate despite broad legal troubles. His presence in Georgia, though likely brief, is swiping the spotlight anew from his opponents after the debate in which they sought to seize on his absence to elevate their own presidential prospects.

The Fulton County prosecution is the fourth criminal case against Trump since March, when he became the first former president in U.S. history to be indicted. Since then, he’s faced federal charges in Florida and Washington, and this month he was indicted in Atlanta with 18 others — including his ex-chief of staff, Mark Meadows, and former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani — under a racketeering statute normally associated with gang members and organized crime.

Giuliani surrendered on Wednesday and posed for a mug shot. Meadows, who had sought to avoid having to turn himself in while he seeks to move the case to federal court, turned himself in Thursday. Bond was set at $100,000. READ MORE
