In a stunning turn of events, the FBI is now apparently investigating multiple alternative news outlets for supposed Russian connections, according to deep state operatives who gave the information to McClatchy News in an obvious attempt to undermine the growing power of the anti-establishment media.
The report, completely sourced by globalist operatives, claims that federal investigators are
examining (see making up out of thin air) whether “far-right” news sites played any role in the Russian cyber operation that some in the intelligence community claim widened the reach of news stories that favored Donald Trump.
According to the anonymous sources in the McClatchy report, operatives for Russia strategically timed computer commands or “bots” to flood social media with links to pro-Trump stories, including those that appeared on sites like Infowars and Breitbart.
“The bots’ end products were largely millions of Twitter and Facebook posts carrying links to stories on conservative internet sites such as Breitbart News and InfoWars, as well as on the Kremlin-backed RT News and Sputnik News, the sources said. Some of the stories were false or mixed fact and fiction, said the sources, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the bot attacks are part of an FBI-led investigation into a multifaceted Russian operation to influence last year’s elections,” reads the McClatchy disinformation piece.
When reading through the piece it becomes clear that these news outlets are not actually being targeted because of Russian connections (there literally is none) but because they were critical of failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton throughout the election which is somehow being framed as the work of Russian operatives when in reality it was patriotic Americans who were fed up with the open corruption of the entire Clinton family.
The McClatchy report continued, “A top priority of investigators is to determine who delivered those hacked emails to WikiLeaks, a London-based transparency site that published them online, the sources said. News stories about the emails embarrassed Clinton at key points in the campaign. WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange has denied that the Russian government was the source of the email dump.”
“As for the bots, they carried links not only to news stories but also to Democratic emails posted on WikiLeaks, especially those hacked from Podesta and made public in October, said Philip Howard, a professor at the Oxford University Internet Institute who has researched the bot attacks.”
So there you have it. Legitimate independent news outlets are Russian agents because they wrote about the hacked emails published by Wikileaks. In the new red-scare America you literally cannot be critical of Hillary Clinton without being accused of being a Russian operative.
Amazingly, the McClatchy piece even quotes Clinton operative John Podesta and disgraced Democratic operative Donna Brazile as if that somehow gives the article more credibility when in reality it shows who this attack is meant to help by literally quoting the people who were exposed by the Wikileaks release in the first place.
Keep in mind that thanks to the more recent Vault 7 Wikileaks release we already know that the intelligence community has the ability to carry out hack attacks and pin the blame on foreign nations, including the Russian Federation.
As I wrote at the time of their release, “Among the startling revelations coming out through the Wikileaks “Vault 7” release is the shocking fact that the CIA has the ability to “misdirect attribution” of a hack, effectively making it look as if a country such as Russian was the culprit when in reality it was forces within the Central Intelligence Agency itself.”
Now all of a sudden the American people are supposed to believe that Russian bot attacks were used to spread alternative news reports when we already know for a FACT that outlets such as Infowars have absolutely no connection to Russia?!
Make no mistake, this is about scaring and possibly censoring news outlets that do not spread the establishment narrative in yet another attack on the free press in the wake of Donald Trump’s stunning election victory. (News outlets such as McClatchy are openly doing the dirty work for the deep state.)
Another key element of this attack is the fact that we now know that FBI director James Comey is absolutely 100% a globalist operative who is not only working directly against the president but also using the power of his position to target news outlets that are not on board with the 24/7 anti-Trump attacks seen throughout the mainstream media.
Unfortunately, no one ever said the deep state operatives working against Trump were stupid and they have now put Comey in a position where he can basically do whatever he wants without being fired due to the fact that he is investigating the fake ties between Trump and Russia and his firing would be seen as an act to cover-up those allegations.
While Trump may not be able to fire him at this moment, the American people can surely make their voices heard and DEMAND that Comey stop using FBI resources for a political witch-hunt that targets the foes of the establishment. We truly CANNOT stay quiet as this attack could be the beginning of the end of the real free press in America.
It is also important to note that while Infowars and Breitbart were the outlets named, its highly likely that the FBI is targeting numerous other outlets including any number of websites that were originally listed as Russian agents in the failed ProporNot list published by the Washington Post. (Which includes Intellihub.)

Red Alert: The FBI Is Now Investigating The Alternative Media For Exposing Hillary Clinton
The “Establishments” narrative & MSM have lost the Information War.
It appears, many are not buying into their fictional reporting anymore.
That is good news for us, and … bad news for them!
“That is good news for us”
Its a long time coming but everything is a two edge sword. This does put a great crack in the bedrock foundation of the government. I suspect, in typical American fashion that the government will double down rather than reverse course. In the end we get a fragmentation. If this is maintained inevitably the government loses the consent of the governed. This is what happened to the USSR.
“Beware what you ask for because you might get it”.
What?..Maybe I’ll read what you wrote a third time.
The government already doesn’t represent you. It only receives the consent of the governed by those that are paid by it. That’s the real problem. I mean how much more fragmented can things be at the bottom. Though it’s all coming together at the top. Informing the people at the bottom always makes those at the top nervous. That’s why they always give them more stuff to keep them pacified.
Translation, historical catalysts of open border policies are conquest aka expansionism, guilty until proven innocent justice system, and/or a region or nation joining another such as the reason dictatorships don’t ratify the US Constitution and become a Nation-State of the Economic-Political Union centers directly on the Great Compromise’s creation of the Electoral College thus preventing dictatorships from simply joining and seizing power by national popular vote. For example, Russia’s population outweighs California’s making President Putin of the United States possible by defacto.
These issues are omitted or ignored in every discussion of the present path trend similarly to the path trend we’re on leads to either downsizing government agencies (Doubtful and thus unlikely) leaving either War and Rationing or Severe Austerity.
True to form whenever government acquires greater power than limits were placed, it very often does not relinquish that power leaving War and Rationing or Severe Austerity.
Seen2013
That sounded real good but I didn’t understand the first paragraph. The second is kind of clear, the third is clear as a bell.
Seen2013,
Thanks for your insightful comments but I am with Kevin2. I am still scratching my head trying to figure out your very profound statement in that first paragraph. ? Could you rephrase it if possible? Thanks!

I just lost IQ points spending time I’ll never get back trying to figure out what hell he meant, until I realized he was just throwing words together he thought made him sound intellectual.
It’s looking dark in my world. Trump is a blowhard. Unable to get anything done. Outsider with both Dems and Repubs working against him, seems to have no real power. He is also ok with “improving” healthcare by increasing penalty taxes if you have no Obamacare. WTF. I am already going to pay the max this year. I see no cause for hope of any positive changes in the future. I guess the reality is, there ain’t no fixin the sorry state of the USA at this point. Good luck to all.
Yeah that damn Trump, why, oh why, can’t he have fixed everything that took 8 years for Oblunder to break, I mean he’s been in office for two months……..
Cockaroaches dont like it when you turn on a light,
The federal alphabet agencies are still the same ones doing target practice on pregnant women and kids and following the suggestions of the SPLC,,,
Same shit different day
Nailbanger, no one really has to follow anything coming from any federal POS. FBI doesn’t have a leg to stand on, especially for the reasons you just mentioned.
Im sick of this crap, i see these gov pricks and their smug arrogant attitudes, cant wait for the reckoning, its coming cuz, mark my words, the day is coming that the piggy bank wont cough up any more pennies for these azholes, they will try and shake us all down, same thing the brits did to our ancestors who formed this republic and it will end the same way

Red Alert: The FBI Is Now Investigating The Alternative Media For Exposing Hillary Clinton. Is this not their JOB?
Let us watch the right hand so that we don’t see what the left hand is doing.
Something is up!!! Be very watchful for the next few months. I got a gut feeling we are going to get hit or False Flag pulled off by the Libtards.
Sgt.
Sarge, you have to wonder how much money is Comey getting ‘under the table’ from the Clintons? FBI doesn’t have a leg to stand on after Ruby Ridge, Waco, OKC bombing, the downing of TWA Flight 800, 9/11. I wouldn’t even talk to any of them if I was in the alternative media.
Comey is a globalist. He desires that political outcome. No one needs to pay him.
My Christian view, the vile spirits trapped since before man, for a season (described in Revelation), have been released. Those spirits have gone out and are inhabiting the leaders of the world, their goal, to mislead the worlds rulers, and bring ruin on mankind.
MANY USA three letter agencies are using their powers to smear/make President Trump appear illegitimate. These agencies are ATTACKING an elected President.
No Sgt. Dale, that is NOT their Job. They are supposed to SUPPORT the elected President. Not UNDERMINE.
Tom
So it wasn’t their job to expose Hitlery??? If not they were suppose to look the other way?
I’m happy that they exposed the Beotch.
Sgt.
Comey – hey asshat!!! I hope you’re reading this. You can investigate all you want any damned thing you want. What you can’t do is investigate the millions of real-time, real-world conversations that are going on. And hey, Mr. FBI dude – a lot of what is said is about what a traitor and a shill you are. The big question many are posing is simple “what do the powers that be have on you?”. Must be something. Whatcha go and do – order a take-out pizza or something? Must be dirty. Real dirty. Like it’d be a insult if likened to scum-caked toad bellies dirty; to the toad bellies.
Yeah , rather than “investigating” the person and people you should be
Alinsky this bee otch and redirect to direct your actions on the people
Completely expected , at least to me and many
Until you do your job on the start of this all Comey , your just a dick in the wind …
Impotent
If it takes the Truth coming from the people to render you flaccid
Than so be it , but remember kiddy diddler … you started it
Can’t wait to see the purchase order for his orange suit
Or sho knows what color it will be
Agreed.
Comey is either a nwo loyalists, or they have been threatening him with something.
He needs to go. Forced out of the FBI, and into retirement.
He does not represent patriot Americans.
comey is a communist mole.
Wait, What?
Isn’t one of her election crowd folks still missing and one found dead? That’s not a secret.
Also, the dems. never gave over computers to FBI upon request. Still haven’t.
The fact is people just hate her and do not trust her. It started when she was first lady. Wait, it actually started in Arkansas.
The real problem is that the DC crowd/MSM are so caught up in their ego’s they can’t see the forest for the trees. They also aren’t subjected to the crap they come up with. They are out of touch with Americans of ALL RACES!
You can be called before congress and deny them facts? Or even when found in contempt you walk and then live a superb lifestyle?
The DNC has lost over 1000 seats nation wide at all levels during the last 8 years. They lost House, Senate and WH too. But the GOP did not win the WH either!
Instead of trolling websites, they need to fire the pollsters, run better candidates and act like Americans!
(Hey Snoops, we want American Representation-Thanks!)

We the reluctant are going to be forced to upend this sprawling mess and restart.
Comey needs to be fired; I don’t care what the optics might show.
ALL people plotting the downfall of our government need to be rounded up and thrown in prison.
My generation came OUT of the red scare. I’m not going back in and neither are my millenial children unless Put in takes off his shoe and hammers the table with it.
The Red Scare is real. Comey just posted this video as proof:

When will there be an investigation into mainline news pages and the FBI?
LMAO Granny, our obituary will hit the paper long before that happens.
Most of us there wont even be an obit, just the part about the crazy right wing survivalist with the arsenal of evil guns who died in a firefight and subsequent fire
Folks, what are you prepared to do when Trump is forced out of office ? Anything ? or just sit complaining on websites…..
Sure its what we do. How ’bout you?

It seems that our beloved FBI Director is or until very recently was a director and board member of HSBC, which is tightly connected to the Clinton Foundation.
http://www.hsbc.com/news-and-insight/2013/former-us-deputy-attorney-general-joins-hsbc-board
“Mr. Comey’s appointment will be for an initial three-year term which, subject to re-election by shareholders, will expire at the conclusion of the 2016 Annual General Meeting.”
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2015/feb/10/hillary-clinton-foundation-donors-hsbc-swiss-bank
“Clinton foundation received up to $81m from clients of controversial HSBC bank”
This is the same HSBC that was accused of laundering drug cartel money, was heavily involved in the LIBOR scandal, and who knows what else, and all while our esteemed FBI Director James “she didn’t intend it” Comey was part of the senior leadership.

I didn’t even read past the first line. So the alt-media can be fed more information than the FBI can collect? Thou thinks they be protesting way too much.
These people are laughing at us. All they see when they look out of their highrise windows is trailer park dwellers and brown people. And then they think to themselves, we need more brown people. And to also cut off everyone, including those above, from any and all information that we ourselves put out there. Oh yeah, we already got that covered. So read this b.s..
The FBI has proven themselves to be owned along with all the other agencies that like to name themselves with a few capital letters…….Get it?… The guy that doesn’t read anything that I post.
Dear Donald Trump, Why did you keep Comey on as FBI director? Please do the U.S. a favor, and fire him. Put your own person in that position. Thank you.
Purge the political appointees. Purge. Purge.
It is just as bad for U.S intelligence agencies to meddle in the political process as it is any foreign power. Ideally, the political process should be in the hands of the American voters. Even then you have big money interests having too much say. If they have proof of the Russians working with Trump people or something as bad, let’s see it!
Meanwhile, Chelsea Clinton is about to be honored later today, as she’s going to be the recipient of the “Lifetime Achievement Award.”
