Book Description
#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • “I’ve read kind of all the books on this subject . . . and this is the one you want to read.”—Rachel Maddow Before Ukraine, before impeachment: This is the never-before-told inside story of the high-stakes, four-year-long investigation into Donald Trump’s Russia ties—culminating in the Steele dossier, and sparking the Mueller report—from the founders of political opposition research company Fusion GPS. Fusion GPS was founded in 2010 by Glenn Simpson and Peter Fritsch, two former reporters at The Wall Street Journal who decided to abandon the struggling news business and use their reporting skills to conduct open-source investigations for businesses and law firms—and opposition research for political candidates. In the fall of 2015, they were hired to look into the finances of Donald Trump. What began as a march through a mind-boggling trove of lawsuits, bankruptcies, and sketchy overseas projects soon took a darker turn: The deeper Fusion dug, the more it began to notice names that Simpson and Fritsch had come across during their days covering Russian corruption—and the clearer it became that the focus of Fusion’s research going forward would be Trump’s entanglements with Russia. To help them make sense of what they were seeing, Simpson and Fritsch engaged the services of a former British intelligence agent and Russia expert named Christopher Steele. He would produce a series of memos—which collectively became known as the Steele dossier—that raised deeply alarming questions about the nature of Trump’s ties to a hostile foreign power. Those memos made their way to U.S. intelligence agencies, and then to President Barack Obama and President-elect Trump. On January 10, 2017, the Steele dossier broke into public view, and the Trump-Russia story reached escape velocity. At the time, Fusion GPS was just a ten-person consulting firm tucked away above a Starbucks near Dupont Circle, but it would soon be thrust into the center of the biggest news story on the planet—a story that would lead to accusations of witch hunts, a relentless campaign of persecution by congressional Republicans, bizarre conspiracy theories, lawsuits by Russian oligarchs, and the Mueller report. In Crime in Progress, Simpson and Fritsch tell their story for the first time—a tale of the high-stakes pursuit of one of the biggest, most important stories of our time—no matter the costs.

The Insider Threat
Author: Adam Lovinger
Publisher: Encounter Books
ISBN: 1641774320
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 140
Book Description
This stunning whistleblower account reveals how the Deep State weaponizes federal powers against its political enemies and explores the disastrous reality of the Obama Doctrine, which seeks to create a global balance of power by weakening American preeminence and strengthening America's foreign adversaries. During his eight-year reign, Barack Obama transformed the U.S. national security, intelligence, and law enforcement bureaucracies as no other president in history has done, advancing a policy of U.S. diminishment that has undermined our global primacy to this day. In The Insider Threat, Adam Lovinger draws on more than ten years of experience at the Pentagon to explain how the Obama administration orchestrated this coup. Obama spent his first year in office persuading Americans that the U.S. should step back from its global leadership role to create a new world order based on “balance of power” politics. But what he never said out loud was that this meant Washington would transfer power to its enemies. When his 2009 worldwide “apology tour” proved a debacle, Obama changed tack—to subversion by bureaucratic fiat. He spent the next eight years staging a stealth revolution inside America’s most sensitive government agencies, using ideological infighters to replace America’s strategic objectives with those of China, Russia, and the Islamic Republic of Iran. In return, through a range of acts and omissions described in this book, America’s adversaries helped Obama and Joe Biden win elections, wealth, and prestige. Equal parts George Orwell and Franz Kafka, The Insider Threat exposes—for the first time—the secret playbook that Lovinger discovered on his U.S. Department of Defense computer. This file reveals how corrupt senior officials enrich their patrons at taxpayer expense, advance the interests of America’s enemies, undermine core U.S. national interests from within, and make administrative reform impossible. Even longtime Washington insiders will be shocked at the extent of lawlessness that now passes for normal in America’s administrative state.

Book Description
TRUMP’S TEAM USING MOLES WITHIN THE DNC That’s a quote from the actual Steele Dossier that is in this book, but has not hit the mainstream media. Is it true? Who’s the mole? Who’s the FBI insider in the Trump Campaign? Was Steele credible? Simpson says that he was opposed to Trump, but does he think there was collusion with the Russians? What about Bruce and Nellie Ohr? Author Daniel David Elles was on the 2010 ballot for Michigan House of Representatives as an Independent in Macomb County, Michigan – Home of the Reagan Democrats. He states: Perhaps we are “fly-over country”, but we make up a significant voting percentage of our Great Nation. In February, he wrote about Simpson specifically stating that the FBI had an internal human source in the Trump Campaign. Three months later it hit the news networks. What facts are the mainstream media failing to tell us? FINALLY! NO BIAS. NO BULL. We don’t need to read about anonymous sources in a paper’s propagandists print. We don’t need to watch hundreds of hours of Congressional testimony. We don’t need to listen to biased broadcast beaming into our homes and uttering unconfirmed nonsense. With questions from Congress – Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) and Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-CA) and many more – YOU will get the facts straight from the source: · Fusion GPS Founder & CEO Glenn Simpson · CIA Director Brennan · FBI Director Comey · DOJ Associate Deputy AG Bruce Ohr · FBI Deputy Assistant Director Peter Strzok · Former MI6 Crown Servant Christopher Steele (U.K. court records) WHO KNEW WHAT AND WHEN? The Steele Dossier purposely does not publish news articles from The Right or The Left. Instead, it incorporates high ranking officials’ under oath testimony to Congress and Declarations contained in official court documents in America and “Across the Pond”. From Steele’s sworn Statement of Truth in the Queen’s High Bench Division to the conclusions made in Simpson’s testimonies before the House and the Senate, YOU will be in the center of the action. How’s that? Because Simpson’s final hour of his Senate Examination is included in full. No edits. Moreover, this untelevised examination was conducted by attorneys for Senator Grassley (R-IA) and Senator Feinstein (D-CA)...NOT POLITICIANS! In reading over 3,000 pages of congressional testimony, articles from every angle, letters/memos from politicians; The Steele Dossier cuts through the political bias by publishing facts. For example, below are some Simpson quotes that we never heard: · It’s sort of like when you’re a journalist…you don’t really decide who’s telling the truth · The Orthodox Church is also an arm of the Russian State · We were encouraging the media to ask questions about whether the FBI… · I knew it was the DNC that we were working for · I was asked to provide some information to the Justice Department · Putin essentially took over the Russian Jewish Community and Leadership · The Russians were interested in making friends with Republicans. · There was a lot of Jewish immigration…and a lot of those people…became very successful and wealthy · In British intelligence the methodology's a little different from American intelligence. There's a practice of being faithful to what people are saying NOW…it’s time for America to decide AND for the world to see: What’s real news? What’s fake news? Thanks and God Bless America!
