Thanks Caldera for keeping me (and others) posted on these very important national events as they are unfolding.
 
On Thursday, former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani joined President Donald Trump’s legal team and said that he is aiming to bring Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation to an end within the next “week or two.”

Giuliani had said earlier in the day that he was joining Trump’s legal team specifically to help wrap up Mueller’s Russia investigation because it was for “the good of the country.”

“I’m going to join the legal team to try to bring this to a resolution,” Giuliani told the New York Post. “The country deserves it.”

This seems pretty significant to me. Yet I am not yet finding this being reported tonight anywhere else (Google was useless too).

Sooner or later it WILL have to be reported on I suspect (or debunked).

But right now I am not finding anything of significance outside of FoxNews.

I DID find something on duckduckgo (which was more than I found on Google), but it merely referenced FoxNews (and Fox Business which I also posted).

Here is the duckduckgo referenced story . . . .

DNC shuns its anti-Trump Kremlin dossier in collusion law suit
.
By Rowan Scarborough - The Washington Times - Saturday, April 21, 2018
.
The Democratic National Committee’s Russia collusion law suit against the Trump campaign cites a number of press stories, tweets and investigative reports as evidence, but there is one notable absence.
.
The 66-page suit doesn’t mention the Christopher Steele dossier, an investigation financed by the very same DNC as well as the Hilary Clinton campaign and sourced to Kremlin operatives. . . .

John Brennan’s Secret Trip to Moscow

The Russians say he did, and while some might say, well, these are the same Russians who helped put together the Steele dossier filled with “salacious and unverified” material, and may once again be playing with us, there is evidence that Brennan, the man who voted for communist Gus Hall for president, did make the trip in March 2016 for purposes unknown:
.
“It’s no secret that Brennan was here,” claimed Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Oleg Syromolotov. “But he didn’t visit the Foreign Ministry. I know for sure that he met with the Federal Security Service (the successor agency to the Soviet KGB), and someone else.”
.
No further remarks clarify what Brennan was allegedly doing in Moscow or what he discussed with the FSB. Syromolotov insists it had nothing to do with Russia’s withdrawal from Syria. . . .

John Brennan: Deep State Political Hack
.
By Daniel John Sobieski. March 21, 2018
.
Considering that John Brennan once proudly admitted that he voted for Communist Party leader Gus Hall and openly supports liars and perjurers like Andrew McCabe, James Clapper, and James Comey, he redefines chutzpah . . .
.
. . . John Brennan, like Clapper, McCabe, and Comey, is a liar for whom ideological goals overrule political morality and personal honor. The mind harkens back to the day when an op-ed in the Washington Post, that right-wing rag, called for Brennan to be fired for conducting illegal surveillance of the Senate Intelligence Committee and then lying about it:
.
. . . Brennan was asked by NBC’s Andrea Mitchell whether the CIA had illegally accessed Senate Intelligence Committee staff computers “to thwart an investigation by the committee into” the agency’s past interrogation techniques. The accusation had been made earlier that day by Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.), who said the CIA had “violated the separation-of-powers principles embodied in the United States Constitution.” Brennan answered:
.
As far as the allegations of, you know, CIA hacking into, you know, Senate computers, nothing could be further from the truth. I mean, we wouldn’t do that. I mean, that’s – that’s just beyond the – you know, the scope of reason in terms of what we would do. …
.
And, you know, when the facts come out on this, I think a lot of people who are claiming that there has been this tremendous sort of spying and monitoring and hacking will be proved wrong.
.
(You can see the video of Brennan’s answer here.)
.
Now we know that the truth was different. The Post’s Greg Miller reports:
.
CIA Director John O. Brennan has apologized to leaders of the Senate Intelligence Committee after an agency investigation determined that its employees improperly searched computers used by committee staff to review classified files on interrogations of prisoners. …
.
A statement released by the CIA on Tuesday acknowledged that agency employees had searched areas of that computer network that were supposed to be accessible only to committee investigators. Agency employees were attempting to discover how congressional aides had obtained a secret CIA internal report on the interrogation program.
.
This is reminiscent of the way James Clapper similarly perjured himself before Congress, a felony for which the statute of limitations just ran out. . . .

This just keeps getting “curiouser and curiouser” . . .

This seems like very subversive activity against the country.

This is not good for our Republic.
The House Intelligence Committee report released on Friday contained a new bombshell: after the 2016 election, wealthy donors paid a former Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) staffer $50 million to continue “exposing” Russian meddling in the 2016 election.
.
Dan Jones, a former Democratic Senate Intelligence Committee staffer and former FBI official, then hired author Christopher Steele and Fusion GPS — whose research formed the Trump dossier — to help him do that, and to give whatever they found to “policymakers on Capitol Hill and the press.”
.
The House report revealed for the first time that Jones told the FBI in late March 2017 that his group, the Penn Quarter Group, was being paid by seven to ten wealthy donors “located primarily in New York and California,” who provided approximately $50 million.
.
The revelation showed the extent that Democrats have been willing to go behind-the-scenes to validate the dossier — which ironically was also funded secretly by the Hillary Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee. . . .

Ex-Feinstein Staffer Hired Steele and Fusion GPS After Election to Keep 'Exposing' Russian Meddling

This looks very bad too . . .
Former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper admitted to congressional investigators that he spoke with CNN about the Trump dossier close to the time the outlet published a scoop, according to a House Intelligence Committee report released Friday.
.
The report revealed that Clapper, during an interview with House Intelligence Committee investigators on July 17, 2017, first “flatly denied” that he had discussed with journalists the dossier or any other intelligence related to the 2016 election.
.
But during that same interview, he later admitted discussing the dossier with CNN’s Jake Tapper and possibly other journalists.
.
“Clapper’s discussion with Tapper took place in early January 2017, around the time [intelligence community] leaders briefed President Obama and President-elect Trump” on the dossier, the report said.
.
CNN reported those briefings on January 10, 2017, prompting BuzzFeed to publish the dossier in full.
.
The House report also noted that Clapper became a CNN analyst not long after the conversation . . .
