REVELATION THREAD: How a small group of brave patriots saved democracy
This is the story of the FBI counterintelligence investigation, how it was protected and completed, and how it doomed Donald J. Trump.
The story begins in May 2017 when Trump fired Comey and Andy McCabe became Acting FBI Director. McCabe knew Comey was fired to shut down the FBIs counterintelligence investigation, so he took steps to protect that investigation.
McCabes stroke of genius was to bifurcate the investigation of Trump into two pieces: a criminal investigation by Robert Mueller, and a counterintelligence investigation by the FBI.
The *trick* though was that McCabe apparently didnt tell anyone there were two investigations.
Everyone thought Mueller was conducting *both* a criminal and counterintelligence investigation, but he wasnt. Muellers investigation was criminal only, and was a decoy for the FBI counterintelligence investigation.
Trump spent two years attacking the Mueller investigation, not realizing that he was attacking the *wrong* investigation. Mueller waited to drop the bomb on Trump until the FBI was almost done. Then he submitted his Report and revealed the truth: he was a decoy all along.
When Trump and Barr got the Mueller Report in March 2019, they realized theyd been fooled. They were focused on shutting down Mueller but their real problem was the FBI counterintelligence investigation. By the time they figured it out, the FBI investigation was nearly complete.
Barr tried to cover things up and launched a desperate attempt to frame the FBI counterintelligence investigation as lacking a predicate and being invalid. He flew around the world trying to prove it. But he failed to come up with anything other than lies.
When Mueller testified to Congress in July 2019, he made it clear that the FBI counterintelligence investigation was *ONGOING.*
What he told us was Earth shattering, but we didnt understand what he meant.
Not only was Muellers investigation not the only investigation: The Mueller Report wasnt the only report.
The FBI was secretly working with the Senate Intelligence Committee to help them publish a report on the FBI counterintelligence investigation.
On April 21, 2020, Senate Intelligence released Volume 4 of its Russia report and dropped two huge bombs by: (1) concluding Russia was working to help Trump and (2) announcing that the fifth and final volume of their report would detail the FBI counterintelligence investigation.
Senate Intelligence Committee concludes in Volume 4 of its report Russia interfered in the 2016 election to help Trump and confirms the counterintelligence investigation is *ongoing* and will be the subject of Volume 5 of the Committees Report.https://www.intelligence.senate.gov/sites/default/files/documents/Report_Volume4.pdf
The big twist in this story is the revelation of its true hero: Richard Burr.
Burr was Chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee and he protected the FBI investigation and pushed it over the finish line, at great personal cost.
Trump and Barr attacked Burr to try to shut him down. They figured out Burr had engaged in suspicious stock trades and tried to use it against him. They raided him and seized his phone to force him to step down as Chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee.
On May 14, 2020, Burr stepped down as Chairman of Senate Intelligence. But Trump and Barr were too late. Burr had already stuck the dagger in their backs before he stepped down: The Report was already finished!
On May 15, 2020, the Senate Intelligence Committee announced that its report on the FBIs counterintelligence investigation was complete and submitted it to ODNI for declassification.
Trump hurried to install a new DNI to try and keep the report from getting out. But Senate Intel had a plan to protect against that as well. You see, they prepared their own redacted version of the report, and Mark Warner stands ready to read it on the Senate floor.
If you look closely at those two days, May 14 and May 15, you will see thats when Trump became truly desperate.
Over those two days, Trump announced OBAMAGATE!!! in a last, desperate attempt to attack and discredit the FBI counterintelligence investigation.
It didnt work.
When Trump realized OBAMAGATE was a dead end he made one last effort to gnaw off his own leg to escape the trap: He tried to stage a military coup to take over the entire county. Yep, that happened. But that plan too was foiled last night when the military rebuked Trump.
Its all over now folks. The report is coming out and Trump will be exposed as a Russian asset. Trump is all out of options. His attempt at a forcible coup was thwarted.
Trump is trapped like a rat.

He has some very good analysis, but he's often too positive in his take on various issues and doesn't take well to being challenged (he briefly deactivated his account when he challenged a TV SCOTUS legal analyst about the Trump tax returns issue - Uncle Blazer said SCOTUS would certainly decide in December, but the SCOTUS analyst said it would be delayed to May or June. After the SCOTUS analyst was correct is when Uncle Blazer deactivated his account for a few days)
