Following the midterm “shellacking” of 2010, President Obama and Eric Holder began the “secret research project” targeting political opposition using the IRS. DOJ asked the IRS for the donor data of all supporters to conservative groups. [Schedule B’s of 501c(3)(4)].
The IRS was used to identify targets 2011 and 2012, until discovered April ’12. President Obama has a problem. President Obama then sends his Chief of Staff, Jack Lew, to run the IRS and block discoveries around the IRS weaponization.
From 2012 through April 2016 the Obama administration then began spying on political opposition, using the FBI to conduct surveillance through their access to the NSA database.
In April 2016 NSA Director Admiral Mike Rogers was alerted by the NSA compliance officer who noted the uptick in database access activity by the FBI searching the Republican Primary Candidate field.
Post April 2016 the Obama administration again had a problem. Enter FBI operation “crossfire hurricane,” July 2016, in an effort to remove the political risk.
October 2016, the FBI rushes a FISA application through the FISC, circumventing the missing ‘woods file’ with the Chris Steele dossier as evidence.
October 2016, NSA Director Rogers sends the first official notification of the FBI using the NSA database to the oversight body, the FISA Court.
December 2016, worried about Trump now discovering the NSA database spying, the Obama administration wraps the Clinton smear into official policy, blaming the Russians and validating Crossfire Hurricane.
May 2017, needing to extend the coverup of the FBI activity, special counsel Robert Mueller then takes over Crossfire Hurricane. All FBI evidence and personnel transfers to Mueller.
April 2019, Robert Mueller operation wraps up, prior activity coverup shifts to Impeachment process.
July 2019, John Durham kicks in extending DOJ/FBI control through 2020 election.
Fall 2020, mail-in ballots triggered to facilitate 2020 election outcome. Install Joe Biden, shift to autopen administration, maintain Obama team influence and coverup objective.
January 2021, FBI triggers Operation Arctic Frost, targeting Trump supporters and 2020 election researchers. FBI again using NSA database search queries to identify targeting.
March 2021, FBI operation ‘Arctic Frost’ results are fed to J6 Committee and DHS. TSA trigger “quiet skies” targeting via results from Arctic Frost.
It’s one long continuum of coverup activity within Main Justice and the FBI, supported by all other various agencies who operate in support. What are they covering up?….
The 2012 through 2016 political spying operation within the Obama administration, as carried out by the same Main Justice and FBI operations.
