If Trump and the GOP keep pushing this Susan Rice and Leakers shyt, they're really just gonna force the IC and the Media's hand

These cats are going to learn, this isn't a game: if you stand with this man and his administration and the shyt that we've all been pointing out for the past few months gets co-signed by the alphabet boys, your careers are essentially over and so is your party.
Trump's administration's death warrant was signed when he violated against the IC. They probably were gonna let it slide for the good of the stability of the nation, but the signaling from top respected republicans indicates the end is near

Been putting this together for a while. I'm about to draw out this entire scandal on both sides & you draw your own conclusion from it.

If anything is factually innaccurate please provide corrections, otherwise close your mouth before deflections fly from it.

First, what we learned recently:

  • Andrew McCabe gets manipulated/bribed into hiring a former MI6 agent to "research" (read: bullshyt) the Trump dossier. Ties directly to the Clinton campaign (his wife received money from them or donated, iirc).

  • Hillary Clinton was confirmed to have access to intelligence and classified files after she left office as Secretary of State.

  • CrowdStrike recently redacted their statements that were used to support their claims of Russian interference in the election. They also were the only ones to look at the DNC's servers; the FBI was prohibited to do so by the DNC itself.

  • Hillary Clinton and the head of CrowdStrike, Dimitri Alperovitch, were both ranking members of the Atlantic Council, a Soros-financed think tank.

  • Susan Rice requested that all intelligence relating to the Trumps (his whole family), gathered across a period of several years going back to 2013 (possibly earlier) be unmasked.

  • Jeh Johnson may also have been involved in unmasking Trump-related intelligence, but that connection is tenuous at best.

  • EDIT: I neglected to mention Evelyn Farkas, who accidentally disclosed the fact that the Obama administration had been spying on members of Trump's campaign, as well as some of his friends is also a member of the Atlantic Council. She also had worked under the Clinton campaign since around 2015, and in her previous job dealt with Russia/Ukraine foreign policy.

  • EDIT II: Cernovich reported a few moments ago that three people close to Obama who had the authorization to unmask intelligence reports were Susan Rice, John Brennan, and Loretta Lynch - all three of whom were key players in the Russia narrative.

  • EDIT III: Developing possibility that Flynn and Trump may have cooperated to catch the spying apparatus/"Council of Evil" that Obama left behind, going off of a foreign intelligence tip. I have incorporated this into the timeline.

  • 4/3/2017 EDIT IV: Bloomberg now reporting on Rice's unmasking efforts. The big takeaway here is that Nunes made a visit to the White House before his press conference to view the National Security Council systems that held the logs of Rice's requests to unmask people that intelligence had been gathered on. I think this explains why Bannon was added to the NSC - Trump has eyes and ears in an area that he would otherwise have been blind to. It probably aided in gathering information about what was going on, too. (It's also funny to see the media clinging to the literal definition of "wiretapping"). Adam Schiff also viewed these logs, hence his decided reluctance to properly comment on what was found.

  • 4/3/2017 EDIT V: Adding some small additional details that I uncovered from digging through the Podesta files. Podesta ID #34639, which better detectives than I concluded that this showed an effort at tying up Trump, Assange, and Russia. The screenshot is dead, sadly, but this happened in March 2016. Podesta ID #17020 also establishes a tenuous but still-present connection between Podesta and the Atlantic Council.

  • 4/4/2017 EDIT VI: As of a few hours ago, we now know slightly more about what happened with the fake Trump dossier. Steele was not paid directly by the FBI as originally speculated - that deal appears to have fallen through, but McCabe was closely involved in negotiating that payment, leaving the Clinton connection valid. The firm involved with it, Fusion GPS, began working on the dossier in September 2015, hired by an anti-Trump Republican donor. That deal was broken off some time after that, and then a Democratic supporter of Clinton started paying Fusion GPS to keep going, and this is the point where Steele was brought into the project.
The timeline based on the FACTS:

  • The Obama administration most likely had been gathering intelligence on every GOP candidate - either as part of their expanded intel operations or as an intentional, focused sabotage plan. This information would likely have been contained in the President's Daily Briefings, which Nunes is rumored to have investigated on March 22 - just before making the announcement that Trump's wiretapping claims were correct. EDIT IV: Though Nunes may have viewed the President's Daily Briefings at some point in his investigation, or intends to, it seems that the linchpin for Nunes was viewing the logs of Rice's unmasking attempts.

  • Clinton got wind of this investigation through her ability to access intelligence files and other means (i.e., direct ties to people in DC who were active in intelligence-gathering). This is where the "Russian hacker" narrative began, possibly bolstered by her relationship with Alperovitch - who is a Russian expat and absolutely loathes Vladimir Putin. She may have built a narrative out of CrowdStrike's report, hopeful that the intel-gathering by the Obama administration would uncover further information about Russian interference. EDIT: Evelyn Farkas, who had been involved in Russia/Ukraine affairs, may also have been involved with this, again through the Atlantic Council. EDIT V: Upon digging through the Podesta files, it would seem that the Trump/Russia connection narrative was constructed just before March 16, 2016. The Atlantic Council had a meeting about "combating far-right extremism in Europe" on March 22 - less than a week later. I think it's possible that the Atlantic Council meeting on the 22nd was when the Clinton campaign, represented by John Podesta (who was in DC the day before the meeting, according to this - Clinton herself was in Washington state) exchanged information with CrowdStrike.

  • EDIT III: Oh boy. This - roughly July or August - is about the point at which, should the possibility laid out by Jonathan Langdale be correct (which Flynn's apparent "thumb's-up" lends extra credence to), Russia was responsible for approaching the Trump campaign and making them aware of the surveillance that was going on. Basically, Trump and Flynn laid out a trap for the "Council of Evil" (which I've come to call the Lynch/Rice/McCabe/Brennan/Clapper circle that seems to have been the main people involved with the Russia narrative) and the deep state, in which Flynn would be made to seem untrustworthy in order to draw out and embolden leakers. They couldn't do anything about it, like go public with it, because it would jeopardize their chances of winning the election and thus prevent the campaign from investigating it further. Additionally, the FBI's actions with Clinton made them seem untrustworthy; it was readily obvious as well that the DoJ was compromised after Bill's infamous meeting with Lynch on the tarmac - meaning they had nowhere to turn but inwards.

  • CrowdStrike's report, which formed the backbone of Russian hacking allegations, found its way through the three-letter agencies and eventually indirectly caused the last FISA request over a Trump-controlled server to go through. [EDIT III: This may have been motivated by Russia's detection of Trump's surveillance as hypothesized by Langdale] Several previous requests had been made, probably because the former (above EDIT III) bullet point happened in around June or July. The FBI found nothing while investigating it. EDIT II: Loretta Lynch's ability to view unmasked intelligence documents may have played a role in allowing the FISA request to go through - likely as a way of building evidence for the brewing Russian hackers narrative.

  • EDIT VI: At around this point, the funding for Fusion GPS to create the Trump dossier dries up, shifting away from the unknown Democrat. Clinton, fearing that the Russian hacking narrative is on shaky grounds, indirectly pays off Andrew McCabe to come up with some kind of dirt on Trump. McCabe then begins negotiating hiring Fusion GPS, who has brought Christopher Steele, a former MI6 agent, into their investigation. The money never makes it to Fusion GPS, and Steele spends several months "working" on it, sends it off to the mainstream media, and it floats around for several months until Buzzfeed publishes it as a means of undermining the Trump administration. Bear in mind that, by this point, the dossier had been in development for over a year.

  • McCabe believes Steele's then-incomplete dossier, as well as CrowdStrike's claims, and then begins to plan a soft overthrow of the Trump administrationstarting with the weakest link - Mike Flynn. Flynn is later forced out due to his own faults, [EDIT III: My original assumption here may be untrue, and this may have been part of a grander plan] but the assault doesn't stop there. Comey may have been aware of McCabe's actions, but ignored them.

  • This is about the point where the media begins to go crazy over the "Russian ties" allegations, bolstered in some form or another by the CrowdStrike claims, Steele's dossier, and quite possibly leaks from McCabe's anti-Trump crusade in a kind of Deep Throat Jr. situation. I have a suspicion that McCabe and his FBI-based allies (the "McCabe 16" mentioned in the True Pundit article) were the source of the narrative. EDIT II: The CIA under Brennan - because of his access to unmasked intelligence reports - may also have been involved with leaks to the media, especially via the Washington Post, which some have deemed the "mouthpiece of the CIA."

  • EDIT VI: Thanks to the Daily Caller, we now know that John McCain learned about the dossier at the Halifax International Security Forum, which took place between November 18 and November 20, 2016. The person involved in bringing it to his attention was Sir Andrew Wood. Wood was a former ambassador for the UK to Russia, and knew Steele from his time at MI6. I have a suspicion that the exact date the discussion about the dossier happened was November 19, because Wood was involved in a panel on "Maidan, Crimea and the Obstacles to Democracy in Ukraine" on that date according to the agenda. Wood flew back to the UK, met with Steele, and handed the dossier off to McCain between November 19 (the last date I can confirm with reasonable certainty Wood was present in Halifax) and December 9, when McCain gave the dossier to James Comey during a meeting. Comey then briefed Trump on the existence of the dossier - which suggests to me that he was unaware of McCabe's actions in trying to hire Fusion GPS - and once that meeting became known to the press, BuzzFeed published the complete dossier.

  • The real unmasking begins once Obama amends EO 12333 to encourage free sharing of information between the three-letter agencies, on January 12. The new rules were signed by Clapper on December 15, so it's reasonable to assume they had been floating around for a decently long time before that. Less than a month before Clapper agrees to them, NSA head Admiral Rogers visits Trump in an infamous "unscheduled meeting," which draws ire from the rest of the intelligence community. It's obvious at this point that this was in order to warn the new administration of what was going on behind closed doors, likely including the information sharing.

  • Susan Rice orders the unmasking of all Trump-related intelligence at some point after the information sharing rules go into effect. This allowed intelligence previously collected on Trump and his family to be widely disseminated between the FBI, CIA, and NSA, and thus exponentially increased the chances of leakers spreading that information to the press - which can (and did) happen. McCabe was involved in this due to his desire to force Flynn and then Trump out of office. Jeh Johnson may also have been involved in the unmasking process as well, but it's unclear as to what his position was.

  • EDIT III: The trap from before the election was set; Flynn volunteered to be the fall guy as already a kind of black sheep in the administration (by being the sole Democrat), and he baited the intelligence community into going after him just before the new inter-agency intelligence sharing rules took effect. It worked like a charm - the media latched on to it, and Flynn handed Trump his resignation letter as the whole intelligence community fell for it hook, line, and sinker. It was now obvious who the leakers were and where they were coming from.

  • EDIT II: Cernovich revealed tonight that H. R. McMaster was responsible for discovering Rice's actions, and he was responsible for sending an aide to Nunes in order to blow the lid open on what was going on. This happened between February 20 (when he assumed office) and March 22 (when Nunes held his press conference). EDIT III: Flynn, it should be noted, resigned seven days before McMaster took office; I don't think it's a coincidence that he uncovered what Rice was doing in just over a month - Flynn's dismissal drew all the termites out of the woodwork, and emboldened them in attempting to leak new, "damaging" information. The only effect this had was to highlight the leakers.

  • The White House figures out all of this, or some key portions of this, between January 20 and March 4. Thus follows Trump's series of tweets discussing "wiretapping," and the rest is history. EDIT IV: It wasn't until early March that Rice was pinned down as the unmasker by lawyers at the White House, so I tend to think that Trump reported on "wiretapping" almost as soon as the smoking gun was found.
