7m Underground Members: Research Notes for February 23rd

New WikiLeaks documents reveal Senator John McCain illegally requested campaign donations from Russia—and Russia declined. http://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2017/02/wow-wikileaks-document-shows-john-mccain-requested-donations-russians/ The Russian Federation wrote a letter to McCain on October 20th, 2008 reading: “We have received a letter from Senator John McCain requesting financial contribution to his Presidential campaign. In this connection we would like to reiterate that Russian officials, the Permanent Mission of the Russian Federation to the United Nations or the Russian Government do not finance political activity in foreign countries.” This was not McCain’s only request for foreign campaign contributions.

More on Senator John McCain, who has famously been photographed meeting with terrorist leaders, including Al-Baghdadi, McCain continues (just last weekend) to visit Syria. https://www.wsj.com/articles/mccain-makes-secret-trip-to-syria-in-midst-of-u-s-assessment-1487795458

McCain’s seeming obsession with Syria and terrorists have some wondering if McCain is involved in a version or continuation of the recently (partially) declassified 1986 plan by the CIA to oust the Syrian president at that time, Hafez al-Assad, father of current Syrian President Bashar Hafez al-Assad. https://www.libertarianinstitute.org/2017/02/cia-memo-scenarios-of-syrian-regime-collapse/ and https://twitter.com/JulianAssange/status/834503650043101185

U.S. Rep. Keith Ellison (D-MN), a professed muslim, appears to be the DNC chair front-runner. He once said to a group of protestors in Detroit, Michigan: “Black people do not live under a democracy. You don’t have an obligation to obey a government that considers you to be less than human.” http://dailycaller.com/2017/02/23/keith-ellison-once-said-black-people-dont-have-obligation-to-obey-government/

Hillary’s campaign chair, John Podesta had his first interview since Hillary’s loss. Podesta blamed the election loss on Russia. https://shift.newco.co/still-angry-john-podestas-first-interview-since-the-hacked-election-b3a9e63161d2

In response to John Podesta’s interview blaming Russia, Lynn de Rothschild, Friend of Hillary and a Rothschild heiress, tweeted an attack calling Podesta pathetic, out-of-touch, and a loser.

Insights from details. The group behind the publicity (character assassination) attack on Milo Yiannopoulos by a Soros group (and a #NeverTrump PAC) is further analyzed to be an attack to shame conservatives from speaking up, or standing up for each other, and is said to be an attack on free speech. “That’s the goal. Crush the Right. Label them. Stigmatize them. Silence them.” http://thefederalist.com/2017/02/23/milo-rorschach-blot-reaction-reveals/ and http://dailycaller.com/2017/02/21/notorious-never-trump-org-funded-group-behind-milo-controversy/

While Milo lost his book deal with Simon & Schuster, Pizza Hut spokesman George Takei remains protected by Pepsi Foods. The actor of Star Trek fame (in unedited, raw form) basically said he sees no problem when a 13-year old likes an adult preying on them, since Takei at 13 years old liked his adult abuser at camp. http://www.tmz.com/2017/02/22/george-takei-milo-yiannopoulos-child-molestation/

Liberal activists have been taking over town hall meetings in Republican districts, causing chaos to disrupt these meetings with constituents. So far, Senator Tom Cotton (R-AR) has given the best response: “Yes, she may not be paid directly. But if she’s working/there at the behest of OFA or a Soros-funded group, yes, those organizing groups are paid to get you out there. So yes, it is a funded protest and the organizers are being paid to get you there. So yes, it is a ‘paid for’ protest.” https://townhall.com/tipsheet/cortneyobrien/2017/02/23/tom-cottons-perfect-response-to-town-hall-attendee-who-says-shes-not-a-paid-protester-n2289562

Coincidence? Sharing the same physical address might help get funding (and directives) easier. The parent company (The Action Network) of the liberal town hall “projects” that is known to serve as a central hub, shares same address as Soros-funded group. http://freebeacon.com/politics/town-hall-project-founded-former-clinton-staffer/

The Action Network describes themselves in these words: “Action Network focuses on doing one thing well — digital organizing — rather than trying to do all things only somewhat well. In that spirit, we don’t offer websites, we’re not set up for offline organizing or more general CRM work, we don’t do text messages, etc… Rather, we offer integration points that allow you to connect together multiple systems if you choose, while picking the best system for each task.”

The Action Network has similarities to the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN) group—and is also similar but not the same as Rev. Al Sharpton’s National Action Network. http://www.nationalreview.com/article/427235/al-sharptons-national-action-network-salary-70-percent-last-year

Noteworthy: President Ronald Reagan realized the following strategy, and had successful counter-strategies. Today’s liberal activists (or agitators) using the same “diamond formation” seating strategy that was used by organized communist groups. The diamond formation is intended to manipulate a crowd during a speech and rattle the speaker.

Sunsara Taylor was just on The Tucker Show calling out against what she called the “Trump/Pence Regime” and demands this regime be removed from power (her message seemed to almost go as far as the socialist ‘by any means necessary’ call to action). This is not new to Sunsara Taylor, who during the Bush years, was a guest on The O’Reilly Show saying “World can’t wait! Drive out the Bush Regime!” Same tactics, different administration.
