He desperately wanted to keep his job and despised Trump for his alleged \u2018Muslim ban,\u2019 a matter near and dear to Brennan\u2019s heart. Not only was he an apologist for the Muslim Brotherhood, but Brennan\u2019s Islamophilia dates to his days in college, when he spent a year in Cairo learning Arabic and taking courses in Middle Eastern studies.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Said the Spectator: \u201cWere the media not so completely in the tank for Obama and Hillary, all of this political mischief would make for a compelling 2016 versions of \u2018All the President\u2019s Men.\u2019 Instead, the public gets a steady stream of Orwellian propaganda about the sudden propriety of political espionage.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.frontpagemag.com\/fpm\/266462\/cias-brennan-conspired-foreign-spies-matthew-vadum\">FrontPage\u00a0Magazine pointed out<\/a>\u00a0that on\u00a0March 16, Fox News contributor Andrew Napolitano accused GCHQ of working with the Obama administration to spy on Trump, citing unnamed sources.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe United States and United Kingdom are in fact parties to a multilateral intelligence cooperation pact. This five-way intelligence alliance among the U.S., U.K., Australia, New Zealand, and Canada is called Five Eyes (FVEY). It obligates the countries to work together in the area of signals intelligence (SIGINT). SIGINT is the gathering of intelligence related to communications between individuals (COMINT) and or from electronic signals not directly used in communication (ELINT).\u201d<\/p>\n<p>FrontPage\u00a0Magazine also cited the \u201craft of subversives\u201d that Brennan brought into the CIA when he took over.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNot surprisingly, Brennan is one of the key reasons the Obama administration did so little to combat jihadists domestically. After Muslim lobbies supposedly put pressure on him, in 2011 Brennan purged all mentions of Islam and jihad from law enforcement counter-terror training materials. He assured those groups that the Obama administration\u2019s worse-than-useless \u2018Countering Violent Extremism\u2019 program had been ideologically purified and pretended the miniscule white-supremacist movement was just as big a threat as head-cutting Muslim savages.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>FrontPage Magazine continued: \u201cFormer Marine John Guandolo, who worked in the FBI\u2019s Counterterrorism Division, identified Brennan as an enemy operative who converted to Islam. Brennan admitted he supported the Kremlin-funded Communist Party USA at the height of the Cold War, even voting for CPUSA presidential candidate Gus Hall in 1976. That fact alone should have instantly and permanently disqualified Brennan from all national security-related government posts.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Unmasking<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Trump\u2019s\u00a0controversial claim that the Obama administration spied on his campaign and transition team has gained steam over the past two months.<\/p>\n<p>As <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wnd.com\/2017\/03\/former-obama-official-admits-we-spied-on-trump\/\">WND reported<\/a>, speaking on MSNBC on March 2, former deputy assistant Secretary of Defense Evelyn Farkas inadvertently confirmed the former president\u2019s administration spied on Trump\u2019s transition team for political purposes and that she helped leak the information.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI became very worried because not enough was coming out into the open, and I knew that there was more,\u201d she said. \u201cWe have very good intelligence on Russia. So then I had talked to some of my former colleagues, and I knew they were trying to also get information to the Hill.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s why you have the leaking.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>However, intelligence chiefs who have seen the classified information in question, including Obama\u2019s own former director of national intelligence, James Clapper\u00a0and former acting CIA Director Michael Morell, said days later they had seen no evidence of collusion between the Trump team and the Russian government.<\/p>\n<p>That meant Farkas\u2019 objective\u00a0could only have been to damage Trump politically.<\/p>\n<p>Later, former Obama National Security Adviser Susan Rice \u2013 who infamously was all over network television claiming the Benghazi terror attack was a response to an\u00a0obscure video \u2013 <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/politics\/politics-news\/susan-rice-speaks-out-unmasking-accusations-i-leaked-nothing-nobody-n742486\">admitted she unmasked the identities of Donald Trump associates collected in foreign surveillance<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>But two weeks earlier, <a href=\"http:\/\/freebeacon.com\/national-security\/flashback-susan-rice-said-i-know-nothing-unmasking-trump-officials\/\">she had denied any knowledge of such unmasking after it was revealed by House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes, R-Calif.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The political use of intelligence assets apparently was in full operation during the waning days of the Obama presidency when Obama changed the rules to let intelligence agencies share with 16 other agencies\u00a0personal information that was intercepted.<\/p>\n<p>___<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.wnd.com\/2017\/04\/obama-entangled-in-brand-new-political-espionage-scandal\/\">http:\/\/www.wnd.com\/2017\/04\/obama-entangled-in-brand-new-political-espionage-scandal\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OBAMA ENTANGLED IN BRAND-NEW &#8216;POLITICAL ESPIONAGE&#8217; SCANDAL<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-71549","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/71549","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=71549"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/71549\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=71549"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=71549"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=71549"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
