Big one from Breitbart — Comer’s House Oversight Committee has uncovered evidence of Biden using an e-mail pseudonym ‘Robert L. Peters’ for official business, including international dealings. Breitbart on this:

One email, which Comer says the committee has already seen, includes an attachment with the vice president’s schedule, indicating that he had spoken by phone to then-Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko. The email was sent to a “Robert L. Peters” and cc’ed to the vice president’s son, Hunter Biden.

Hillary Clinton of course famously used her own server, which Comey (not Comer) helped to cover up.  Also, President Obama used fake names to communicate with Clinton on that email server.

In an April 5, 2016 interview with the FBI, [Clinton aide Huma] Abedin was shown an email exchange between Clinton and Obama, but the longtime Clinton aide did not recognize the name of the sender.

“Once informed that the sender’s name is believed to be a pseudonym used by the president, Abedin exclaimed: ‘How is this not classified?’” the report says. “Abedin then expressed her amazement at the president’s use of a pseudonym and asked if she could have a copy of the email.”

The State Department has refused to make public that and other emails Clinton exchanged with Obama. Lawyers have cited the “presidential communications privilege,” a variation of executive privilege, in order to withhold the messages under the Freedom of Information Act.

I’ve long said that the email server of Clinton’s was the key to a number of things, including Benghazi.  Its purpose was to facilitate the Clinton crime family’s pay-to-play schemes, such as the Clinton Global Initiative, ridiculous book sales arrangements, speaking fees for unrecorded and unrecallable engagements, and any other communications for which she might have needed to hide her official communications from official scrutiny, which is of course against the law.

The murderous debacle at Benghazi was the product of clearly screwing up on Libya policy while lying to the American public that there was no problem.  The Obama 2012 re-election narrative was that Detroit was alive and bin Laden was dead.  As our consulate in Benghazi came under attack on the anniversary of 9/11, and those in Benghazi radioed desperately for help (after months of warnings, including specific actionable information the day before), the leadership in Washington decided to let them die rather than move any military assets which might give up the game — terrorism was not dead after all.

A one-off Arab Street protest would not come with actionable precursors, but a terror attack planned for the anniversary of 9/11 certainly would.  And so the Benghazi 4 were consigned to die, and when they were brought home, Clinton and Obama stood over their coffins and lied.  They pinned “blame” on some schmuck who made a YouTube video, and threw him in jail.  They gagged survivors of the attack and ensured that nobody in the chain of command between the cabal and the numerous military units which had begun preparing to GO GO GO when called were available or likely to testify about who gave the order to stand down.  As Benghazi burned and our people were killed, the entire United States sat quietly by, doing nothing.  Dead ambassadors tell no tales, after all.

Susan Rice was hastily assigned as UN Ambassador, which put her under Obama’s executive privilege umbrella, for some reason extending to events before she was ambassador.  It also made her part of the State Department, run by Clinton.

David Petraeus was Director of the CIA, and suddenly resigned when an old affair blew up in his face juuuuust before he could testify about stand-down orders that undoubtedly flowed down the intel side of the house.  (I am sure that the denial that any stand-down orders were sent hinges upon a Clintonian parsing such as “Well, nobody actually used the phrase “stand down” in the imperative mood in any official communications…”) Convenient that resignation, and for some reason, extended to events under his watch before being fired, but once the excuse was in place, he received no more questions about Benghazi.  It smelled like a rescue, not a firing.

The move comes amid the unfolding controversy surrounding the attack on the U.S. Consulate in Libya. Scrutiny has fallen on a range of agencies including the CIA, and the director had been set to testify at hearings next week — he is no longer expected to do so. But Petraeus, in his resignation message, cited strictly “personal reasons” surrounding the affair.

Recall, incidentally, that Petraeus had attempted to conceal his affair by having his all-in biographer-mistress log in to the same email account and just exchange drafts — no mail was ever sent.  Unfortunately, these utter morons (later Director of the CIA!) used a free GMail account for this purpose, not realizing that Google is not in the free email business — they are in the information dominance business.

Of course, there was enough information to detail exactly who logged in when, from where, and on what machine, what other Wi-Fi signals were in the user’s area at the time, the make, model, serial number, and the resolution of the screen on the device, and ohhhh so much more.  If you don’t know this stuff, it sounds crazy.  Once you know, it’s terrifying.

And this tool was Director of the CIA.  He thought he was smart enough to fool everybody by using a system he knew precious little about in an undefined way.  So did Hillary and Obama.  And now, it appears that Hunter and Joe Biden, the Frick and Frack of corruption, did as well.  Pseudonyms won’t help you much.  VPNs won’t help you much.  De-Googled browsers won’t help you much.  The fact is that everything Edward Snowden said is much more likely to be true than false, and for that matter, Julian Assange too.

Not only does our government have just about everything (remember that every email sent and read is also stored on at least two PCs and one or two servers), but every email that Hillary Clinton sent to a foreign potentate to coordinate her get-dictatorial-quick schemes is also potentially retained by that foreign actor.  This must be true unless the Clinton email people provided those foreign government agents with login credentials on her own email server, which is even worse.

The intel community (IC) is the keeper of all this curated yoga, grandkids, and recipe wisdom.  They are the ones who can dribble it out a piece at a time in public to make your life Hell, in private to get you prosecuted, or for internal consumption, and you just get quietly whacked as a threat to their interests.  Or they simply say nothing and allow their silence to buttress wrong facts.

This is the same intelligence “interagency” community that knew full well Obama had in fact bugged 2016 candidate Trump’s campaign, which knew full well that the Clinton-authored Russia collusion hoax was utter fiction, and which knew full well that the US-Ukraine corruption problem was all about the Bidenjamins.  They knew that Trump was right to look into Biden’s highly damaging Ukraine corruption, that Biden extorted them in 2016 to fire prosecutor Shokin.  They knew that Shokin was right to look into Burisma’s crooked dealings with Joe Biden through the bag-man and mysteriously unqualified, million-dollar-a-year board member Hunter Biden.  They knew it all along.

The IC is literally where the coup happened.  The IC functions as a corps and cadre of zampoliti (“political officers,” look it up for appalling reading), with every single department, branch, agency, body, or gathering of three or more suits in DC having an assigned minder from the IC.  If you are a “Game of Thrones” fan, these are the Maesters, and for those of you who are deep GoT fans, the “maester conspiracy” is alive and well in Washingtos.

They have ears and mouths literally everywhere in government, and as a clearinghouse for the clearly treasonous “recent” (ha!) conduct, they are protected by a system of laws and classification so secret and separate from the rest that nobody sane in government would touch it.  Of course, Comey didn’t prosecute Clinton!  The IC has its own standards, its own classifications, its own courts, its own administrative practices and laws — it is by definition a government-within-a-government.

The entire runaway IC is held on the side of angels only by the purity of their own souls, answerable only to their own knowledge of vice and virtue, with no checks or balances which are accessible or even visible from anywhere they don’t actually control under their own regulatory construct.  The Founders solved this, and bit by bit, we let it go.  We are now ruled by a cabal of unelected govvies with clearances that you can not even name, with powers too secret to publish, with all of the information and none of our interests in common.

There is nothing new in the swamp.  Dying empires are conquered because they rot from within long before they are pushed into the ditch.

Of course, Biden was using an alias.  I don’t know — haven’t seen — whether this was an account created on government servers, or if there is another Hillary-style NotTheBidens.com server out there.  Or in a bathtub.  Or if it’s been wiped, like with a cloth, and other grandmotherly homilies.

These people are lying to us — our enemies and easily half of our friends alike — lying to us and laughing in our faces.  Our Republican form of government and the useless Bill of Rights are things of the past.  Outdated notions, and scribbles upon scraps.

I’m grateful to the House Oversight Committee for their so far diligent and productive work laying grounds for meaningful action — I wish them continued success.  I’m happy enough with the HFC/McCarthy speakership compromise, and I think it’s working well enough.  Yet for all of these and any other successes, it is clear that we are not going to vote our way out of this situation.  This does not mean to give up on voting.  It means to open up another front in our war to free ourselves from this growing tyranny.

“Vote and,” not “Vote or.”
