The best TTP of the Federal Bureau of Intimidation (FBI): Continue walking the untrained and unsuspecting squirrel into the trap.

Works like a charm every time online and then in person for the arrest, to wit:

"Oh, you're angry at the stupid AIPAC-controlled US government, too?"

"Yeah."

"Here are some websites to get the stuff you need."

"Gee, thanks, Mehmet!"

"Once you get the materials, I'll show you how to use it."

"You're a real doll, 'ya know that?"

"Yeah, I certainly am, aren't I? Now let's get busy, Jessica. I'll meet you at Valhalla Park off Niskayuna Road at noon on Thursday. I'll be wearing a bright green hat. Allahau Akbar!"

The FBI has always been interested in prosecuting air-tight convictions and this is how they do it.

I worked with the FBI on several cases and made two friends from the bureau over the years. They have long since retired and were decent family folks. I can't imagine either of my two friends doing this type of entrapment, but I can't ever be sure, can I?

Howdy Derek Wildstar:

You said it.

And those well-trained, heavily-armed, and robustly-paid CIA personnel knew what they were getting into: An immature security and communications environment in an anarchic tribal hotspot with no air support or a magical insertiom of USSOF one radio call away.

"But, hey! We got the gosh-darned 140 Israeli hostages released while the Israeli Death Forces (IDF) slaughtered 43,391 Muslims in the Gaza Strip in 2024! To heck with tens of millions of progressives, pacifists, environmentalists, endangered species, veterans against war, defenseless horses, Muslim voters, or America's natural resources!"

"So, there!"

The Israeli stalkers are back to help the AIPAC pod-people take over the US.

"We, the people's comissariat, charge you and the members of your junta, with the following crimes: Sabotaging the national economy, undermining America's international prestige, destroying our national defenses, poisoning the American people on an industrial scale, perpetrating outrageous blasphemies, plundering the US treasury, and child sexual predation.

How do you answer to these charges, Citizen Trumpf?"

"I'm very good at flagpoles!"

"Guilty. Bring in the next prisoner."

An Austrian piano virtuoso was uselessly conscripted during the First World War. Injured and captured by the Russian Army in 1914 or 1915, the surgeon was horrified to recognize the famous POW he was treating. The physician apologized profusely to the prodigy that he would be forced to amputate his right arm, so grievous was the injury.

I remember in 2012 the Republicans in Congress raking Democrat USSECSTATE Hillary Clinton over white hot coals because of Benghazi, a failed covert CIA plan to secure loose weapons from the tribes of Libya, an oil-rich country which fell into complete anarchy after Muammar Khaddafi was toppled and executed.

To score political points, Republicans exposed that CIA mission which US Army General "Betray-Us" also idiotically disclosed.

"Argh! Why didn't you call for airstrikes from Aviano AB in Italy? Pflargh!!"

Because the USAF didn't know about the secret CIA mission and the USAF would have to get permission from Italy -- a NATO ally -- to use their airspace for a non-NATO mission.

And the CIA contractors would order a "danger-close" strike on their own position? Were they on the same frequency as the USAF? The outnumbered USG personnel were in a pitched battle with the eneny and the US Envoy -- a personal friend of the Clintons -- was whacked.

And by the time the F16s would get there, the fire-fight would have been over.

The Republicans made it sound as if this tribal attack in Libya took place in Iraq where the USAF would have intervened on behalf of USSSOF personnel on a mission.

And POTUS Barack Obama (D) was re-elected in Nov 2012, so the GOP smear campaign failed, try as they did.

I wonder why Californian Eric Swalwell maintained a DC residence. After resigning, his federal career was kaput.

I was also curious as to why Democrat Eric Swalwell hired a conservative Republican named Bo Dietl -- retired NYPD detective -- to investigate his victims and witnessess.

There are plenty of gumshoes in NYC and California owned and operated by Democrats.
