SPECIAL COUNSEL LEGAL AUTHORITY IS ILLEGITIMATE

Current Special Counsel rules were created by the very same cabal of DOJ careerists currently exploiting them to cover-up their 9/11 treason

(Mar. 09, 2018)On Jul. 01, 1999 Bill Clinton's Attorney General Janet Reno created an internal administrative procedure (not a law) that she named “Office of Special Counsel.” Never mind that Congress had just allowed the previous "Independent Counsel" statute (a real law) to lapse the day before on Jun. 30, 1999.

Reno's Department of Justice (DOJ) went around Congress and fabricated a new Special Counsel procedure inside the department with almost dictatorial powers and zero accountability.

1999 was a busy year for the criminals in the Clinton White House:

Date: Clinton Administration 1999 Crimeline:
Jun. 30, 1999 Congress allowed 40-year Independent Counsel statutes to lapse
Jul. 01, 1999 Clinton Attorney General Janet W. Reno pronounced without public hearings or notice the Office of Special Counsel procedure (not a law) inside Justice Department; this procedure now used by the scandal-ridden, leak-ridden Trump-Russia Mueller witch hunt. Drafters includined Robert S. Mueller III, James P. Chandler III, Rod J. Rosenstein, Eric H. Holder Jr., James B. Comey. Peter P. Strzok, Michael E. Horowitz, E.W. 'Bill' Priestap, Lisa C. Page, Hillary R. Clinton, William J. Clinton, John D. Podesta . . . (A surprisingly similar cast of characters are in the Trump-Russia witch hunt.)
Jul. 02, 1999
Larry H. Summers appointed Treasury Secretary by Bill Clinton
Jul. 03, 1999 Sheryl K. Sandberg appointed Summers' chief of staff; former Summers Harvard student, World Bank protégé; Sandberg later arranged Summers appointment to Instagram and Andreessen Horowitz Silicon Valley boards where she runs Facebook as chief operating officer, along with Summers' former Harvard chief of staff Marne L. Levine Duetch who Sandberg appointed Instagram chief operating officer; Levine-Deutch also worked for Hillary Clinton at the State Department in 2009. The moral of this incestuous story is that these treasonous conspirators take care of each other.
Jul. 11, 1999 The 15-month (false flag) Kosovo War fueled by the U.N. stopped. The murder of Orthodox Christians and closing of more than 100 monasteries and churches cleared the pathway for subsequent Islamic migration
Jul. 14, 1999 Clinton issued Executive Order 13130 that formed the National Infrastructure Assurance Council (NIAC) secretly led by James P. Chandler, III, IBM's chief intellectual property outside counsel, formally initiating the weaponization of the Internet; Microsoft's Bill Gates joined NIAC in 2001 to press his global eugenics agenda
Sep. 29, 1999 C.I.A. In-Q-Tel formed illegal public-private venture capital group that has funded the vapid, morally bereft cardboard cut-out "Boy King" rogue C.I.A. stooges of Silicon Valley
Nov. 12, 1999 Glass-Steagall Act banking controls abolished; Citigroup formed; raping and pillaging of U.S. assets by globalist bankers began
Nov. 17, 1999 Agilent Technologies (HP) $2.1 billion public offering (The Internet of Things PFN/TRAC weaponization of the Internet by Deep State where people are defined as mere "wet-ware")
Table 1: 1999 Clinton Administration Crimeline

Tellingly, the people who drafted this Office of Special Counsel procedure (not a law) in 1999—sidestepping Congress (We The People)—are the very same people running the current Trump-Russia witch hunt. Mueller, Comey, Rosenstein, Strzok, Priestap, Chandler . . . This is flat out wrong on many levels: legally, ethically, morally, common sense, decency, propriety, civility, respect for fellow man, spiritually . . . See May 17, 2017 Rod J. Rosenstein appointment of Robert S. Mueller, III.

Special Counsel Mueller is the fruit of a poisoned tree

Never mind Robert S. Mueller, III's 2009 treasonous Uranium One espionage with Hillary and Bill Clinton on the Moscow, Russia tarmac conflict.

Whether this investigation is stopped due to Mueller's egregious conspiracies with the Clintons, or the conspiracies surrounding the drafting of the Reno Special Counsel procedure (not a law), such conflicts of interest demand that the Special Counsel be shut down as the fruit of a poisoned tree.

If Congress wants a Special Counsel, then Congress needs to pass a new law and do it right. We cannot rely on this grotesque and illegal Special Counsel procedure. It is utterly indecent in its criminality and self-dealing.

History of the independent counsel

The first independent counsel law was passed by Congress on Oct. 28, 1978 as a provision of the Ethics in Government Act of 1978. It was implemented after the Watergate scandal to enable arm’s length investigations when the Attorney General and/or the DOJ could not be impartial. The law was renewed in one form or another three times in 1982, 1987 and 1994.

King Janet created the current Special Counsel by fiat

Then on Jul. 01, 1999, Attorney General Janet Reno announced the “Office of Special Counsel” procedure. She ignored numerous accountability requirements and instituted the new procedure by fiat— with no customary public notices, waiting periods or hearings. The day after the real independent counsel law expired (Congress' prerogative), Reno literally forced this procedure (not a law) into the federal record as if she was a dictator.

Remarkably, reading Reno's 1999 procedure (not a law) is like reading a description of events in the current Mueller Trump-Russia probe, right down to the recusal of Jeff Sessions in favor of Rod Rosenstein as Acting Attorney General—one of the procedure's (not a law) drafters.

Rosenstein's and Mueller's participation in the drafting of this procedure ethically disqualifies them from benefiting from it, which they do since they are being paid by the American public, not even counting their many incredible relationship conflicts.

In fact, we have given this procedure a new name:

The Janet Reno 1999 Special Counsel DOJ Procedure (not a law)

DOJ conspiracy to deceive the American people

Who has time to dig through the Federal Register and dig out these kinds of rules? Where are our elected officials? Where are our law enforcement people? Where are our regulators? They all appear to be either asleep, incompetent, or they are on the take themselves.

Americans for Innovation and American Intelligence Media took the time. (You are welcome!) Can the footprints of this conspiracy to deceive the American people with rigged special counsels be any more obvious?

Deep State DOJ footprints

Where were the current participants in the Trump-Russia probe in 1999?

Notably, all of them were Janet Reno’s DOJ boss and employees in 1999.

Mueller, Comey, Rosenstein, Horowitz, Holder, Chandler, Priestap, Strzok, Page (Lisa), Clintons, Podesta . . .

These individuals clearly have participated in a long term conspiratorial plan to write the The Janet Reno 1999 Special Counsel DOJ Procedure (not a law) that they intended to exploit now, in 2018.

Also remarkable is that Acting Attorney General Rod J. Rosenstein even cited fellow drafter and Congressional perjurer James B Comey as their trigger man to begin their Special Counsel. See Rosenstein Order No. 3915-2017(b), May 17, 2017.

Do you think they know the eventual outcome of this Mueller probe, and who they will attack? Let's see, maybe President Donald J. Trump and any Deplorable (We The People) that gets in their way?

The 1999 Special Counsel Procedure (not a law) edited out all accountability to Congress

A closer review of the legislative history of the independent counsel law reveals glaring ethical holes in the Jul. 01, 1999 Special Counsel procedure (not a law) as compared to the previous independent counsel laws in five key areas:

  1. Removed accountability to the Office of Government Ethics
  2. Removed any audit requirements
  3. Removed accountability to Congressional committees, including the Judiciary Committee
  4. Edited out almost all recusal language
  5. Permitted FBI involvement (no such clause ever before)

Further, the procedure (not a law) exempted itself from any accountability to show good cause, give public notice or holding hearings.

It also abjured compliance with the oversight provisions of the Administrative Procedure Act, the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act, the Regulatory Flexibility Act, Executive Orders 12866, 12612, 12988 and the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995.

Investigation Conclusions: The Janet Reno 1999 Special Counsel DOJ Procedure (not a law) removed all oversight by We The People

Call to Action:

  1. The current Janet Reno 1999 Special Counsel DOJ Procedure (not a law) must be abolished forthwith as the fruit of a poisoned tree of treason, conspiracy and treachery.

  2. Congress must pass a new, real Independent Counsel law; this could be as simple as reviving the previous and well-edited Independent Counsel statutes that had bipartisan support for 40 years.

  3. Criminal investigations of Barack Obama, Bill/Hillary Clinton and other Deep State racketeers should proceed using normal DOJ procedures—after the upper and middle managements at the DOJ are cleaned out of Clinton, Bush and Obama holdovers, and anyone even remotely associated with the DOJ activities described herein.

    “Hollywood Hypocrisy” is our cover story on Sunday’s Full Measure. Hollywood’s double standard regarding its treatment of women is coming home to roost. We go to L.A. to examine the sordid history of the casting couch and whether real change is on the way.

    Joce Sterman looks into the problem of sexual misconduct in the U.S. military. She found that the military branches don’t even have a common definition of what constitutes sexual harassment. That makes it difficult to fix the problem within our nation’s biggest employer.

    And we go back to the Southern Philippines where ISIS Islamic extremist terrorists are trying to establish an independent state or “caliphate” from which they can launch attacks throughout Southeast Asia. As the U.S. assists the Philippines’ military, there are new warnings from the U.S. State Department about dangerous developments.

    Murray N. Rothband. (Mar. 10, 2018). The Monetary Breakdown of the West. LewRockwell.com

    Murray Rothbard hits it out of the park with this expose of international monetary failures….leading to the millions of souls lost to war as the resultant. In short, as noted by the examination of history, and especially in “Tragedy and Hope”, by Quigley, all war, famine, and social vicissitudes, can be derived from chaos in monetary policy. It is by ‘monetary policy’ that the ‘herd’ is moved form point ‘A’ to point ‘B’ for ‘theft’ by a elite few. I use the word ‘theft’ to avoid the mental ‘block’ from ‘profit’…that ‘horrible’ anti-capitalist adjective. The only hope, is to remove ‘government’ totally from the monetary scene. It is time to recognize that ‘inflation’ of ‘any nation state’s’ money supply, without that ‘nation state’s’ money supply being tied to an international gold standard, is the first precursor to war. Inflation is a ‘crime’, more destructive than nuclear proliferations, and yet the “United States” is the ‘worst criminal’ among the nations…the most ‘evil’, as through our military, we have forced the world to bend its knees to the American dollar. Sadly, now all of the ‘inflated dollars’ want to come ‘home’. America will soon be awash with dollars, of little value, and ‘prices’ will be unsustainable. Zimbabwe is around the corner, unless an ‘international gold standard’ can be implemented….the one that used to work but was destroyed by government at gunpoint.

    Investigative Bureau. (Mar. 12, 2018). FBI Insiders Blow Whistle on Massive Las Vegas Cover Up; Agents Told Not to Investigate Key Evidence Including ISIS Terror Link to Mandalay Bay Massacre. True Pundit.

    The “official” narrative you’ve been fed by the FBI and Las Vegas officials about the massacre at Mandalay Bay that claimed 58 lives is purely fiction, a polished story contrived to cover up the disturbing facts surrounding the worst mass shooting ever in the United States, according the FBI insiders and high-ranking intelligence officials.

    And now, after months of corporate-infused spin by MGM Resorts and outright lies from officials in the FBI and the Las Vegas Metro Police Department, federal agents and intelligence officials are spilling the beans about what really happened on and before the Oct. 1 massacre.

    “It’s a movie script that was written after the shooting to rewrite what really happened,” one FBI agent said. “The investigation is an entirely different story that we are not allowed to talk about. If we do and get caught, we get fired and probably charged (criminally).”

    We have strayed so far from the constitution, that forming ‘societies’ within the bureaucracies, unaccountable to anyone, accept to the politics internal to their own discretion, have become acceptable. They are acceptable only because ‘good men’ are not aware when they are enacted, in violation of all underlying premises of transparency.

    https://www.thenewamerican.com/usnews/constitution/item/28481-on-nullification-sessions-and-doj-get-it-wrong

    From article
    “Obviously, then, if the federal government usurps powers that were never delegated to it under the Constitution, those acts cannot be the “supreme law of the land,” or even legitimate laws at all. More than a few of America's Founding Fathers involved in creating the Constitution made that crystal clear when advocating for its ratification. In fact, even the most radical proponents of centralized federal power were adamant that unconstitutional “laws” were neither supreme nor even laws. “There is no position which depends on clearer principles, than that every act of a delegated authority contrary to the tenor of the commission under which it is exercised, is void,” wrote Alexander Hamilton in The Federalist, No. 78. “No legislative act, therefore, contrary to the constitution, can be valid.” “This should be good enough to get rid of the FED, and alphabets.


    “Hamilton made a similar argument in The Federalist, No. 33. “If a number of political societies enter into a larger political society, the laws which the latter may enact, pursuant to the powers intrusted to it by its constitution, must necessarily be supreme over those societies, and the individuals of whom they are composed,” he wrote. “But it will not follow from this doctrine that acts of the large society which are NOT PURSUANT to its constitutional powers, but which are invasions of the residuary authorities of the smaller societies, will become the supreme law of the land. These will be merely acts of usurpation, and will deserve to be treated as such.” In short, unconstitutional acts of usurpation should be treated as such.”

    Sean Hannity. (Mar. 14, 2018). REPORT: OBAMA Campaign HID PAYMENTS to FUSION GPS During 2012 Election. Hannity.

    A new book says Barack Obama hired Fusion GPS in 2012.

    A bombshell new book detailing the Kremlin’s efforts to undermine the US election system raised eyebrows throughout Washington this week; claiming the Obama administration hired shady opposition firm Fusion GPS to investigate Mitt Romney during the 2012 presidential election.

    The tell-all, titled “Russian Roulette: The Inside Story of Putin’s War on America and the Election of Donald Trump,” describes how senior members of the Obama campaign hired the firm behind the infamous ‘Trump Dossier’ in 2012; hiding payments to the group by funneling money through its law firm, Perkins Coie.

    The Clinton campaign used similar techniques when they hired the research group to find dirt on Donald Trump during the 2016 race for the White House.

    “In 2012, Fusion GPS was hired to do opposition research on Mitt Romney for Barack Obama’s reelection campaign,” writes the author.

    Niall Ferguson warns about the power of social media monopolies

    Historian: Silicon Valley Will Decide Future Election Winners Unless Conservatives Do Something

    British historian Niall Ferguson warns that Silicon Valley will decide the winners of future elections unless conservatives do something to combat social media censorship and skewed algorithms.

    “If we do nothing, the mid-terms are going to be worse than you already think – a lot worse – because never again will the network platforms in Silicon Valley allow conservative candidates to use them as Donald Trump’s campaign used them in 2016,” said Ferguson, adding that Facebook couldn’t believe how vital their platform was in helping Trump get elected.

    “I don’t think he would have become president without Facebook,” said Ferguson.

    2. HOW TO STOP 2018 ELECTION RIGGING IN ITS TRACKS

      IDEAL: Paper ballots counted and reported by bipartisan counters.

      ASSUMING YOUR SECRETARY OF STATE WILL TRY AND HANG ON TO HIS OR HER ELECTRONIC VOTING MACHINES AND PROCESSES:

      CITIZENS MUST INSIST ON AN UNBROKEN CHAIN OF CUSTODY, NO EXCUSES OR MAGICAL SOFTWARE EXPLANATIONS

      CITIZENS (WHO OWN THESE ELECTION PROCESSES) MUST DEMAND that their Secretaries of State allow a network security engineer from each party running in the election to monitor the network traffic on election night coming in from each county’s board of elections. These people can easily determine whether ONLY county election systems are reporting, or whether there are other/secret MAN IN THE MIDDLE (election vote total fraudsters) accesses to the State’s election vote tabulation computer.

      That’s it. With the bipartisan observers in place, the MAN IN THE MIDDLE ELECTION RIGGERS can be easily detected. Also, the chain of custody of that data can be verified by simple phone calls back to the county boards of election to the bipartisan election monitors in each county to verify that the numbers received are the actual numbers tallied. As a precaution for rigging of individual voting machines, the paper ballot printout should be counted by hand and the total compared to the machine’s total reported (ref. Diebold voting machine fraud.) See Hacking Democracy about rigging machines (doesn’t address man-in-the-middle at the state level): YouTube keeps censoring versions of this video, so we provided multiple locations: http://www.hackingdemocracy.com/ | https://youtu.be/iZLWPleeCHE | https://youtu.be/vx1vxPFXIiw

      No third party “independent election monitors” are needed, or should be allowed, without being observed by the bipartisan group of network engineers for their integrity. In fact, since the bipartisan engineers are there, other third party monitors are not wanted since they would represent the state and not the people.

      Here’s an explanation of how the rigging occurs:

      https://americans4innovation.blogspot.com/2016/11/red-alert-obama-is-rigging-election.html
