The web of corruption, lies and deceit surrounding this White House and
the Obama Administration in general continues to expand, as even the
head of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), perhaps the world’s most
powerful spy bureau, may have played a role in violating the
Constitution.
According to Breitbart News, “An obscure November
2012 Wikileaks email dump points to former White House counterterrorism
adviser and now-CIA chief John Brennan as the person behind the ‘witch
hunt’ of journalists who reported unflattering Obama Administration
leaks.”
The site reported that, just more than a week after
Obama’s reelection Nov. 6, the whistleblower website Wikileaks dumped
loads of global intelligence files from Stratfor, a private intelligence
firm, in which one particular email – dated Sept. 21, 2010 – discussed
the president’s “Leak Investigations.”
‘Oh my’
A graphic of
the email has been posted on the Breitbart site. It is from the email
address of “burton@stratfor.com” to “secure@stratfor.com” and it reads:
Brennan is behind the witch hunts of investigative journalists learning information from inside the beltway sources.
Note
– There is specific tasker (sic) from the WH to go after anyone
printing materials negative to Obama agenda (oh my.) (sic) Even the FBI
is shocked. The Wonder Boys must be in meltdown mode…
A search of the Stratfor website [www.stratfor.com
]
by NaturalNews found that “burton” is Fred Burton, the firm’s vice
president of intelligence. In a video following the release of the
Stratfor emails by Wikileaks, Burton said:
…Stratfor sources are
indicating that the U.S. intelligence community are looking at ways to
further compartment information to prohibit this kind of disclosure in
the future. In the pre-9/11 world there was not a steady flow of
information primarily between the FBI and the CIA, but the other
government agencies were also affected. As a result of that, one of the
recommendations of the 9/11 Commission was a much broader dissemination
of information so analysts saw more so they could reach accurate
assessments.
As a result of Wikileaks, what you’re seeing is a
desire to restrict that flow of data, in essence, analysts will not have
access to, perhaps, operational channel messages which contain very
granular data on sources as well as the kind of terrorism information
they need to do their job…
In short, the Wikileaks disclosure
likely hurt global intelligence gathering. But apparently the Obama
Administration is much more concerned with its image – so much so that
the president would rather utilize the head of the CIA and who knows who
else to dig dirt on and intimidate working journalists who were
reporting facts and details about his administration and his agenda he
found unpleasant.
Initially the Massachusetts chapter of the
American Civil Liberties Union tweeted out a link that referenced the
disclosed email discussing the president’s “war on whistleblowers” on
Nov. 15, 2012. Breitbart reported that the tweet only received two
re-tweets after remaining online for about seven months. Burton would
not comment on the Breitbart story.
Rampant criminality within the ‘imperial’ presidency
In
recent weeks the Obama Administration has increasingly come under fire
for a plethora of scandals, including the blatantly unconstitutional
seizure by Attorney General Eric Holder’s Justice Department of private
phone records of 20 Associated Press reporters, and for monitoring
private emails and phone conversations of Fox News reporter James Rosen,
among others.
News of the improper targeting of Rosen began to
unfold following the recent release of documents regarding a Justice
Department investigation of Stephen Jin-Woo Kim, a former contractor for
the State Department. Kim has been accused of violating the Espionage
Act for allegedly leaking classified information and documents to Rosen.
The
Washington Post says the DoJ has described Rosen as an “aider, and
abettor, and/or co-conspirator,” citing a legal filing in the case.
“The
public filing shows the first defense letter was filed in the case
seven days before the September 21 Stratfor email regarding Brennan’s
‘witch hunt’ on investigative journalists was sent,” Breitbart News
reported.
The lesson here? Don’t upset our imperial president; he’ll shred the Constitution to go after you.
