The past couple weeks, I’ve commented several times about domestic spy-craft lurking beneath the surface concurrent with the campaigns, election, and now the Trump administration. The contributing factors are well documented on the figurative ‘back-page’ of the news so I’ll not cite sources here. Something was not right with the whole Hillary-Soros-and other shadowy globalist camp connection. Since the election, hardly a protest has gone by that did not include evidence of or clear documentation of being bankrolled by large anonymous sounding political interest orgs, and often times, bused-in participants. Obama publicly plays happy retiree but quietly sets up shop around the corner and installs heavy-hitter operatives even in his own ‘home’, an extraordinary breach of post-presidential practice. He’s already interjected far more opinion and meddling than any past president, at least in my long memory. There’s been a flood of questionable revelations, first about Flynn and now Sessions and God knows who else, and a growing body of evidence that this was uncovered by intelligence resources for political ends, by then sitting President Obama. This morning, those revelations were escalated to the level of political wiretapping a-la Nixon.
The point here is that this is no longer back-page stuff and it’s now corruption to be dealt with. The cases against Flynn and Sessions were and are murky. I don’t know if their circumstances should result in removal. I’ve never liked Sessions and still don’t, but I believe we just crossed the point where the means of expose, apparently employed by the Obama regime, demonstrates greater criminality than the taint of talking to a Russian.
My fear has been that the post –presidential, Teflon-Obama camp would be indefinitely couched in the warm nurture of media manipulation. I feared that Obama would be able to run his shadow government unabated in full daylight. It’s a respectable tradition for past Presidents to not meddle in current administrations. George Bush has rehabilitated his legacy well by his examplary restraint; Obama has not, even just two months in. Obama had eight years to try his hand at his brand of change and given the fragility of his legacy, built on much unilateral coercion, it deserves to fail. Easy come, easy go. It should be a warning to all future Presidents, if you don’t build change through consensus, you’ll have very little to show for it at the end, ergo, the need to Obama to be an active shadow President. This is not about Trump; this is about the integrity of the office of the chief executive, the President. I hope and pray that Obama’s use of intelligence assets gets long detailed very public legal examination. It is my opinion that he no longer deserves post-presidential immunity if that’s what it takes to shut down a shadow-president.
