AT&T owns Warner Media Group making them the largest media conglomerate in the world. Warner Media Group owns CNN, Bleacher Report and Otter Media. Otter Media was founded by Chernin Group and AT&T in 2014 as a holding company tasked with acquiring other media outlets – think PacMan. Peter Chernin is a diehard Democrat who hosted parties for Obama and contributed heavily to Hillary’s failed campaign for 2016 president, he is president of Chernin.
Inside AT&T.
AT&T’s Leadership team includes: Cicconi who served as the Commerce Department’s Digital Economy Advisors under Obama and has been openly critical of Trump, David Huntley whose responsibilities include “developing policies to safeguard the privacy of customer and employee information, verifying compliance with the legal and regulatory requirements, Angela Santone who came from Turner Broadcasting (Jane Fonda’s ex-husband Turner), John Stankey who was the CEO of Warner Media, and CEO Randall Stephenson who along with his wife hobnobbed with the Obamas. He also chaired the Boys Club of America until 2018. William Blasé, Jr., also serves on the boards of the Boys and Girls Club of America.
The Board of AT&T includes a host of Democrats who were active in the Clinton Administration, The Brookings Institute, the Federal Reserve, Obama administration, Carlyle Group, John Kerry Advisory, and a little relatively unknown NGO – European Horizons which works in conjunction with the EU Commission to maintain a capitalist vision for trade while maintaining a welfare state. They are funded by various organizations and foundations including The Atlantic Council and Yale University.
According to their website: “European Horizons wants to change the status quo. The youth is capable of advising and acting for the good of the European Union and transatlantic relations.”
Why is any of this relevant? Because AT&T/Verizon allowed the NSA to have ‘live’ access to all US member phone records. In addition, they are forwarding 1 million emails to NSA – daily as a part of their partnership agreement. Those records would include White House officials. It also demonstrates that the Clinton –Bush machinations are far deeper than we can possibly imagine! While this information was initially revealed by Edward Snowden, he remains in seclusion in Russia.
Recently, the House Intelligence Committee under Pelosi and Schiff released confidential phone records between Republican House member Devin Nunes and Lev Parnas, a Ukrainian formerly hired by Guiliani, who has been indicted on campaign fraud. Schiff claims the records show that Nunes was complicit in the Ukraine affair for which Trump is being impeached. In truth, Nunes has been demolishing the testimony of Schiff witnesses, and Hillary has begged for Nunes to be fired.
The transcripts of the phone call that Nunes made was in April, well before ANY Ukraine aid was discussed. It was about the US Ambassador to Ukraine, Marie Yovanovitch, who was ousted from her position and felt ‘sad’ and ‘fearful’ as a result. Yovanovitch testified against Trump having no direct knowledge of any phone calls at all, but based on ‘her opinion’.
So what could Nunes be complicit in doing? According to Schiff, Nune said bad things about Yovanovitch. That is it. That makes him complicit – whereby with the backing Clinton, Nunes could be fired.
The problem is any President has the power to fire any ambassador without cause, and have repeatedly done so throughout history. It is simply a common occurrence for every new sitting president.
Where did Schiff get the damning Nunes phone records in which Nunes may or may not have spoken directly with Parnas? AT&T. According to the report provided by Schiff, the first call lasted 1 minute and the second lasted 8. There is no record of who was speaking – only a log of numbers.
There are three blatant violations in this release: 1. House Ethics Rules, a provision of which states; “House rules against actions to “cast discredit or dishonor on the House, the committee, or a Member, Delegate, or Resident Commissioner or bring the House, the committee, or a Member, Delegate, or Resident Commissioner into disrepute.” 2. Schiff denies he subpoenaed the records. So how were they obtained legally? 3. Under the US Patriot Act, the federal government has to inform the person before they may have access to records and they must have an outstanding case against the person from who they are seizing as well as a supoena. Nunes was never informed and Schiff denies there was a subpoena.
That would mean the Democrats are using illegally obtained records as evidence in an impeachment hearing against President Trump while simultaneously denying they even did so – while claiming against the Ukraine government’s statement that no blackmail/quidproquo existed, and the organization that released this private data has a long compatible partnership with Clinton and Obama.
The US Patriot Act authored in 2001 under Bush, states that records may only be released if they pertain to an ongoing investigation. But according to NSA, AT&T and Verizon, billions upon billion of records are grabbed every year from every subscriber to Verizon – despite having absolutely no terrorist alignment. The extent of this collaboration between AT&T and NSA was created during the Obama administration. The legality does not exist.
So in essence, when Schiff declares that the House didn’t subpoena Nunes records, he is likely correct, he simply asked for them from NSA. But NSA’s grab is beyond the law – and Schiff knowingly broke the law in publicly producing private information without following proper channels.
It is also interesting that the Clintonite collaborative AT&T’s leadership team have relationships with Boy and Girl Scouts of America. April 2019 it was revealed that more than 12,000 Boy Scouts were the victim of sexual assault. Given that ‘perversion’ files were kept by the Boy Scouts for 30 years and the assaults are said to have occurred over a century, it seems a bit coincidental that AT&T leaders and board members might have any partnership – but they do. In 1983, Timur Dykes had confessed to the local BSA co-ordinator that he had molested 17 Boy Scouts, but was allowed to continue working with the Scouts. In other words, the Boy Scout Administrators knowingly allowed the pedophilia. The CEO of AT&T was Board Chair for The Boy Scouts of America and a good friend of Clinton and Obama. Quid Pro Quo?
FYI: In 2017, Boy Scouts of America announced the inclusion of girls into it’s program. Like AT&T, Boys Scouts of America is based in Texas.
As usual Helena, you’re amazing.
