Watchdog group Judicial Watch released 42 pages of heavily redacted State Department documents obtained through the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), which reveal that the Obama State Department provided Senator Ben Cardin (D-MD) a "dossier of classified information on Russia" in order to undermine President Trump, according to Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton.
“These documents show the Obama State Department under John Kerry gathered and sent its own dossier of classified information on Russia to Senator Ben Cardin, a political ally in the U.S. Senate, to undermine President Trump,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. “Judicial Watch will pursue information on who pulled this classified information, who authorized its release, and why was it evidently dumped just days before President Trump’s inauguration.”
The documents show Russian political interference in elections and politics in countries across Europe.
According to a March 2017 report in the Baltimore Sun: “Maryland Sen. Ben Cardin received classified information about Russia’s involvement in elections when the Obama administration was attempting to disseminate that material widely across the government in order to aid in future investigations, according to a report Wednesday … Obama officials were concerned, according to the report [in The New York Times], that the Trump administration would cover up intelligence once power changed hands.” -Judicial Watch
In March 2017, Former Obama Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense, Evelyn Farkas, made some stunning admissions during an interview with MSNBC’s Mika Brzezinski.
While discussing the mad scramble by the Obama administration to collect and preserve intelligence on alleged Russian election hacking before Obama left office, it appears that Farkas accidentally implicated the Obama White House in the surveillance of Trump’s campaign staff:
The Trump folks, if they found out how we knew what we knew about the Trump staff dealing with Russians, that they would try to compromise those sources and methods, meaning we would not longer have access to that intelligence. -Evelyn Farkas
Furthermore, Farkas effectively corroborated the March New York Times article which cited “Former American officials” as their anonymous source regarding efforts to leak this surveillance on the Trump team to Democrats across Washington DC.
I became very worried because not enough was coming out into the open and I knew that there was more. We 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.
That’s why you have the leaking. -Evelyn Farkas
Farkas resigned from the Obama administration in September of 2015 - begging the question as to how she knew so much about what the previous administration and intelligence community was up to.
Trump Tower
A section of the documents obtained by Judicial Watch is titled “Pro-Kremlin NGOs and Think Tanks," refers to "the Russian government funded Caucasus Research Network, which helped to spread anti-EU and NATO reports throughout the region. Also discussed is the Human Rights Accountability Global Initiative, which was founded by Natalia Veselnitskaya. The Initiative was reportedly “working to erode support for the Magnitsky Act (which imposes sanctions on … gross human rights violations). The organization screened an anti-Magnitsky film at Washington’s Newseum in June.”
Veselnitskaya infamously obtained a meeting with Donald Trump Jr. through associates of opposition research firm Fusion GPS, wherein she attempted to discuss the Magnitsky act before Trump Jr. shut down the meeting.
The Magnitsky Act attracted public attention earlier this year when it was reported Veselnitskaya obtained a meeting with Donald Trump Jr. with the purpose of seeking to undermine the act. It was reported that Russian President Vladimir Putin wanted to repeal the act at least in part because it targeted top Russian officials who had committed human rights violations and were the beneficiaries of a $230-million tax fraud that Magnitsky exposed. -Judicial Watch

General Jack D. Ripper: Your Commie has no regard for human life, not even his own. And for this reason, men, I want to impress upon you the need for extreme watchfulness. The enemy may come individually, or he may come in strength. He may even come in the uniform of our own troops. But however he comes, we must stop him. We must not allow him to gain entrance to this base. Now, I'm going to give you THREE SIMPLE rules: First, trust NO one, whatever his uniform or rank, unless he is known to you personally; Second, anyone or anything that approaches within 200 yards of the perimeter is to be FIRED UPON; Third, if in doubt, shoot first then ask questions afterward. I would sooner accept a few casualties through accidents rather losing the entire base and its personnel through carelessness. Any variation of these rules must come from me personally. Any variation on these rules must come from me personally. Now, men, in conclusion, I would like to say that, in the two years it has been my privilege to be your commanding officer, I have always expected the best from you, and you have never given me anything less than that. Today, the nation is counting on us. We're not going to let them down. Good luck to you all.

You have to remember there are different types of intelligence.
There is stuff that is collected using secretive and borderline illegal methods that cannot be used in court, cannot be released to the public and very few people even know that the ability to collect it exists. This kind of intel is “dark”.
Then there is smoking gun evidence, the kind of intel that can be presented to a courtroom and can be openly discussed in a public forum. This kind of intel is “white”.
The US has vast intel resources, but almost all intel starts off dark and they have to work hard to throw more light on it to find stuff they can use.
Trump is commander in chief, he has all the best intel that there is.
The NSA can and does record any phone call. Trump can ask the NSA a to get him the transcript of any conversation that happened with 10ft of a smartphone from any time and any place in the past 5 years.
This is the kind of dark intel that is used to form strategies. But it can never be used in the open.

He must be bulletproof too, since if he was really disrupting the scam that much, they'd just have him killed.

Ben Cardin...has that sleazy jewy look about him. How many of these congress critters share the same inbred gene pool?
Edit: My hunch was correct: The family name was originally "Kardonsky", before it was changed to "Cardin" See wiki page for Ben Cardin.
I'm beginning to wonder, based on the genetics and associations of the most prominent players, whether both sides pushing the Russia Russia Russia narrative happen to be putting on a divide and conquer show as a smokescreen to allow the looting, rape and pillage of the 99% to continue unabated.

The International Jew

In reply to Ben Cardin...has that sleazy… by Anonymous_Bene…
Jews cannot help it that they are a worldwide minority, one of the only true minority groups. Christian and non-Christian Blacks dominate whole continents, as do Christian Hispanics, Buddhist and Confucianist Asians, Hindu Indians, Muslim Arabs and Persians and Christian whites. Jews just dominate a pea-sized country called Israel, which is constantly under seige by hostile neighbors. They are not internationalist, but nationalistic, in the context of Israel. Even here in the USA, where Jews are a 1% minority, there are still some nationalistic, pro-USA Jews. Jews—more than most groups—do at least have a rational reason to fear over-zealous nationalism, i.e. the Holocaust that likely had something to do with being a minority in all countries except Israel. Nationalism that is rational, and not overboard, is necessary for national survival. This is as true for the USA as for any other nation. Many Jews actually know that.

We are shocked!
Best,
Lois Lerner and John Koskinen, IRS
Some of us are only shocked at how deaf highly paid elites are. They cannot hear the thunderous sound of millions of rally goers who voted for Trump, mainly for one reason: an end to mass-scale, welfare-assisted, wage-cutting, illegal immigration.
It was not due to Russia anything.
Additinally, voters know that the US government has also tried, on occasion, to influence foreign elections, dropping leaflets into Muslim countries using government planes, and having zero effect on changing these entrenched, religion-infused, dictatorial governments. The CIA did manage to install and/or oust a few unsuccessful dictators—one in Latin America and one in Iran.
This issue of underhanded, sneaky Russian FB ads is NOT what is undermining democracy across Europe and in our own Republic, no more than the US government’s attempts to influence elections in the ME by dropping pamphlets was the issue undermining democracy in Muslim countries.
The issue that is rotting faith in democracy is elected officials (Swampers) who serve the business interests of the global elite that lines their pockets at the expense of an underemployed nation that has seen 40 years of falling wages and 94% new job growth since 2005, consisting of temporary, part time, high turnover and 1099-contract gigs.
Illegal aliens do not have to care. They—like many American parents—get generous, pay-per-birth welfare that covers their major household bills (groceries, rent), when they have sex and reproduce after illegal border crossings. They work part time, staying below the earned-income limit for the monthly welfare programs in traceable earnings, and they stay below the cut off for newly-doubled child tax credits that were already sitting at $6,444 before doubled in the RepubliCON tax-welfare plan.
Many non-welfare-eligible citizens who must live on earned-only income, with rent soaking up more than half of their monthly income, have to care, when competing with an unending deluge of citizens and immigrants with monthly welfare and tax welfare that enables them to work for less.
That is the main reason why so many independents and cross-over voters opted for Trump. We voted for him, hoping against hope that that his anti-globalist, ant-illegal-immigration rants were real and not just a campaign tactic to win office.

This version of “the truth” will cost American taxpayers nearly $700 million in fiscal 2018.
