May 2, 2019 | Posted by George Parry | Commentary

Historians tell us that in the final days of the Third Reich, as the Red Army surrounded the Berlin Fuhrerbunker, a crazed Adolf Hitler ranted, raved and issued increasingly irrational orders for non-existent Wehrmacht divisions to counterattack and repel the invaders. Even as Germany was being laid waste by the British and American armies advancing from the west and the Russians from the east, Hitler still appeared to believe that victory was within reach. After all, when he had started World War II, world domination by the Nazis had been all but certain. It had to have been inconceivable to him that he had been so wrong from the beginning, and now he would have to face the consequences.

Equally deluded and disbelieving was Josef Goebbels, the Reich’s propaganda minister. According to historical reports, even at that late date and in those dire circumstances, Goebbels’ deluded denial of the advancing peril equaled that of his Fuhrer.

I couldn’t help but think back to crazy Adolf as I watched the utterly bizarre performance by the unhinged Democrat senators who hurled meaningless, semi-hysterical invective at Attorney General William Barr as he testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee. Similarly, the mainstream media’s equally outlandish portrayals of Barr’s steady, thoughtful and intelligent testimony reminded me of the credulous and loyal Goebbels. Just as Adolf and Josef couldn’t accept the reality that they had lost the war, Senators Richard Blumenthal (D., Conn.), Mazie Hirono (D. Hawaii), Kamala Harris (D. CA.) and their media enablers seem to be incapable of accepting the results of the Mueller investigation.

When Robert Mueller was appointed special counsel two years ago, the Democrats and the mainstream media declared their firm expectation that proof would be forthcoming that President Trump had colluded with Russia to steal the election. According to the Democrats and their media subsidiary, the eager and committed “dream team” of Hillary Clinton sycophants who comprised Team Mueller would make short work of Trump and expose him as a traitor.

But, against all odds and every optimistic prediction, Team Mueller came up empty. They found no conspiracy by any American with Russia and declined to bring obstruction of justice charges against the president. Even though they did their best to lard up their report with derogatory characterizations of Trump, in the end it turned out to be an exploding cigar that left the Democrats and their media mouthpieces like so many metaphorical wide eyed Wile E. Coyotes with sooty faces and singed eyebrows.

And, as Barr quietly and with great dignity schooled the Judiciary Committee on the realities of Mueller’s investigation, the Democrat senators seemed unable to accept the unavoidable and undeniable fact that for the last two years they and the progressive media had confidently and loudly championed a complete and utter hoax. So it was that Blumenthal and his frustrated cohort desperately flailed away and hurled meaningless invective at the cool, calm and collected Attorney General.

On the eve of Barr’s testimony, Mueller leaked a letter addressed to the Attorney General complaining that Barr’s initial four-page summary of the report’s conclusions “did not fully capture” the scope of the 448 page report. According to the Committee’s Democrats, this somehow constituted proof that Barr was shilling for the president.

In response, Barr pointed out that after publishing his summary, he had released the complete Mueller report with minimal redactions so that the senators and the public could assess for themselves Team Mueller’s findings. But this rational reply only heightened the Democrats’ fury and slanderous attacks on the Attorney General.

Finally, Barr had had enough. He calmly and with devastating effect pointed out the obvious disconnect between the Committee Democrats’ accusations and reality.

“How did we get to the point where the evidence is now that the president was falsely accused of colluding with the Russians, accused of being treasonous and accused of being a Russian agent, and the evidence now is that that was without a basis?” Barr asked. “And two years of his administration have been dominated by allegations that have now been proven false. But to listen to some of the rhetoric, you would think the Mueller report had found the opposite.”

And then the Attorney General raised the stakes by once again pledging to investigate the activities of the FBI, Justice Department and CIA during and after the 2016 presidential campaign. Among the matters to be investigated were the many illegal leaks of protected information. In doing so, he ominously raised the possibility that there may have been “overreach” by top officials, adding that: “But what we have to be concerned about is a few people at the top getting into their heads that they know better than the American people.”

Leaks of classified information by top officials who know better than the American people who should be president? Was Barr giving former FBI Director James Comey a warning? Given that Comey has helpfully stuck his head in the noose by publicly acknowledging his intentional leaking of classified material to cause the appointment of a special counsel to investigate Trump, it would certainly appear to be the case.

And then came the crowning moment when Barr flatly declared that the investigation of the president was over, and the Mueller report was available to the American people who could read it and decide on their own how to vote in the next presidential election.

“We have to stop,” he intoned, “using the criminal justice process as a political weapon.”

Amen.

Although the Attorney General carefully avoided saying that he had reached any conclusions about “overreach” by top government officials, the mere fact that he raised that possibile investigative subject should induce night sweats and fitful insomnia throughout the bedrooms of the Seat of Government.

Who knows? Just like the popularity of backyard bomb shelters during the height of the Cold War, underground fuhrer-style bunkers may become the hot new trend among deep state leaders looking to make a desperate, crazed last stand against the approaching forces of justice.

10 Biggest Lies Obama Told EveryoneHe Promised Not To Spy On US CitizensHe Promised To Make Government More OpenHe Promised Not To Raise TaxesHe Promised To Promoted Freedom Of SpeechHe Promised Not To Use Presidential Signings To Bypass CongressHe Promised To Campaigned For PeaceHe Promised To Not To Come After Americans People GunsHe promised to Lower US debtHe promised to Close Guantanamo Bay PrisonHe Promised GMO Food Labelling Obligatory
While running for president, Barack Obama had made a number of promises to his people and the world. Most of which seems to have been left unfulfilled, now that he is the President of the United States of America. All those deceptive speeches were part of his propaganda, they were mere promises aimed at getting all the voters on his side. The good news is that each year Obama’s support rating is declining. Now check out these, 10 biggest lies Obama told:

10. He Promised GMO Food Labelling Obligatory
The top 10 biggest lies Obama told begins with his promise to make GMO labelling obligatory. American citizens have been long complaining that that the GMOs are real risk to people’s health. Most of us were happy to learn that Senator Obama planned on obliterating GMO food labelling once he became president. Fast forward to now, instead of providing the customers the freedom and the tool to be informed about what is in their foods, Obama has switched sides and even he approved Monsanto Protection Act into effect. What the act does is that it protects companies involved with GMO labelling. As if these weren’t enough, President Obama made former Monsanto VP, Michael Taylor, as the Senior Adviser to the Commissioner of Food and Drug Administration.

9. He promised to Close Guantanamo Bay Prison
We all know about Guantanamo Bay Prison facility right? We are all but too aware of the inhuman atrocities carried out people who are mere suspects, who perhaps haven’t done anything and are completely innocent. According to some, several of the prisoner at the Guantanamo Bay Prison haven’t even been put through any kind of legal process. They are being detained illegally and being tortured using inhuman methods. Obama promised to shut down the facility. But this turned out to be one of the biggest lies Obama told. The Obama Administration no longer seems to take interest into the matter. The president isn’t keeping his promise of locking down the inhumane penitentiary.

8. He promised to Lower US debt
Back in 2007/2008, when Obama was campaigning hard for of the seat of President, time and again he made promises of lowering the US debt. The National debt bait worked pretty well for him as he used the argument against his predecessor George Bush and his regime. Believe it or not, in just four years, Barack Obama has managed to raise the US debt more than what the last 43 leaders had. During the election, Professor Dr. Webster Tarpley had warned US citizens against Obama and his policies. But alas! We didn’t listen to the wise professor.

7. He Promised To Not To Come After Americans People Guns
Barack Obama, assured he will not go after American gun owners which are the legal right of every American according to the Second Amendment of the US constitution. But like other points in this list, this too is among the biggest lies Obama told everyone. He broke his prior commitment and has now started speak up against the right to keep arms by a US citizen.

6. He Promised To Campaigned For Peace
In regards of this, Obama didn’t just break his promise but released more bombs on Afghanistan than Bush had in eight years of conflict. Apart from the bombs released in Iraq and Afghanistan he deployed more troops into those countries, invading their peace and safety. In Libya, America’s intrusion has ended up killing thousands of innocent lives and according to some, Obama regime has actively supported and financed the Syrian rebels, invading yet another sovereign country against the international consent.

5. He Promised Not To Use Presidential Signings To Bypass Congress
Of course he has does it now. One significant moment was the Libyan war. To intrude into the conflicting country, he didn’t get permission from congress so instead issued presidential order. President Obama took the United States to an illegitimate and an unconstitutional war in Libya that not only killed thousands of Libyans but also got several American soldiers killed. The whole thing was a waste and totally unnecessary.

4. He Promised To Promote Freedom Of Speech
Instead he harasses whistle-blowers. The Obama regime has abused more whistle-blowers than all 43 presidents before him combined. And once again we see promises made by President Obama that is not being realized. People like Edward Snowden and Bradley Manning put their lives in line by exposing what the US government was up to. Today they are being been hunted, threatened, imprisoned. What they exposed have been very valuable to the world and to mention a few, Obama government had illegally large hand in the NSA spying scandal and the IRS discrimination.

3. He Promised Not To Raise Taxes
Seriously though, when will the lies of President Obama an end. While campaigning for himself, we heard a lot of screaming of “yes we can”, and frequent mentioning that his government will not increase taxes, even for a cent. But of course that hasn’t happened and American natives are left reeling under the pressure of taxes.

2. He Promised To Make Government More Open
In one of his early days, President Obama was heard saying that laws written will be more accessible to the public, no more hiding. The goal was to make administration transparent so that everyone knows what exactly they are being put through and why. But the complete opposite is happening now. Accessing information under the Obama government has become more difficult than ever before. A few days back Associated Press (AP) Washington bureau chief, Sally Buzbee published a report revealing how the Obama Administration blocks information even from the media.

1. He Promised Not To Spy On US Citizens
Today, that seemed to have turned into one of biggest lies Obama told. Recently news came out that US administration actively spies on American people and intercepts emails and phone calls. To recall, while running for President, Obama had criticized the Bush administration for this. He promised there won’t be any unauthorized wire-tapping of American citizens, no national security letters to spy on people etc.

Obama approved the NDDA (National Defense Authorization Act) on December 31, 2011, at a time when most people are very unlikely to heed what was going on with the government. What NDAA does is that it provides the government the authority to restrain and prison any regular American citizen without any charges.

some more Ten Of Barack Obama’s Worst Lies

By Derrick Hollenbeck

Attempting to select THE ten worst lies told by a pathological liar like Barack Obama is a difficult task. There are so many lies that it is hard to know where to start – a good case can be made for so many of his lies as top ten material. For this reason, there is no claim here to a TOP ten of his lies: ten of his most egregious ones.

During his 2012 State of the Union speech, Barack Obama claimed “American oil production is the highest that it’s been in eight years.”

In fact, the Congressional Research Service reports that 96% of the increase comes from oil fields out of Obama’s control. By contrast, the production from federally-owned oil fields he does control has dropped by 275,000 barrels a day. It is worth noting that privately-owned fields have increased by 395,000 barrels a day.

Obama has told the world there has never been a better friend of Israel in the White House.

TRENDING: Mexican President Attacks Trump After Tariffs: ‘America First Is a Fallacy’

In September 2012, an Israeli newspaper reported that senior Obama Administration officials have told Tehran that Barack Obama does not intend to join Israel in any attack on Iran’s nuclear installations. In May 2011, Obama asked G8 member nations to fund the Arab Spring counties who are clearly on their way to planning an all-out attack on Israel.

In May 2011, Obama said the fence between America and Mexico was “basically complete”; yet the Department of Homeland Security admits just 36.3 miles or 5% of the border is fenced.

Obama lied and said abortions would not be publicly funded under Obamacare.

Despite Obama’s empty lies about no public funding for abortions, a March 2012 edict from the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) unequivocally ruled Obamacare will use our tax dollars to fund abortion.

In April 2009, Obama claimed he “saved or created over 150,000 jobs.”

In an odd burst of veracity, his friends at the AP called him on this lie, pointing out that at that point since Obama came to office, the United States lost more than 1.2 million jobs as per his own Bureau of Labor Statistics. The report continued by pointing out that any jobs “saved or created” by Obama’s stimulus bill were “ dwarfed by the number of recent job losses.”

He claimed that by the end of his first term, he would cut the deficit in half.

The truth is that he has given us more new debt than all previous presidents combined.

Remember Obama telling us there would be no earmarks in his 2009 stimulus package? He lied. The bill had over 9,000 earmarks in it; and of course, it failed to deliver even a small improvement for our economy.

RELATED: Dick Morris: Why Heartbeat Laws are Dangerous for the Pro-Life Movement

Obama told us that without his 2009 stimulus package unemployment would grow to 8.5%. We got the stimulus, and it gave us 44 straight months of unemployment at or above 8%.

Obama lied about his position on Gay “marriage” multiple times, moving from “I am not one to support gay marriage” to his “evolution” in May. That was all a convenient pack of lies.
