The former chairman of Hillary Clinton's 2016 presidential campaign, John Podesta, has joined The Washington Post as a contributing columnist, the paper announced on Thursday.
Podesta, who also served as chief of staff to President Bill Clinton and a counselor to President Barack Obama, has recently written two op-eds for the Post.
The first, published in December, was about the the FBI's investigation into Russian hacking of the Democratic National Committee. The second, published last week, was about President Donald Trump's penchant for dismissing all criticism of himself as "fake news."
The Post says Podesta's columns "will provide commentary and analysis on the intersection of politics and policy, the Trump administration and the future of the Democratic Party."
“No one knows more about how Washington works, how the White House operates, and how policy ideas are translated into reality than John Podesta,” said Editorial Page Editor Fred Hiatt in a statement. “His long experience in Congress, inside two Democratic White Houses and on the front lines of numerous presidential campaigns, will offer readers vital insight into Washington and politics at the start of a new era.”

It may be that the deep state etc. really believes that they're going to overthrow Trump, and this is keeping them going and emboldening them. However, I do believe they are worried about revolution from the people.

I got a whiff , the other day, of what military soldiers who served abroad will feel like doing should the shit-storm of 9/11 Truth hit the shores of their minds - with no recourse, anymore, to denial.
As long as it's not formally announced the people who need to can continue in denial.
I'm sure the perps use this likely "blowback" scenario from our own people as a reason to keep the lid on it and to keep everyone repeating and shoring up the fake narrative - no matter how silly and "Roger Rabbit".
Not sure how that can be done, continuing into the future, since the data / info is all open source and in the public record.
Their only way of continuing this indefinitely is to up the amps on mind -control or, truly, to use the old -style "State Terror" to make people submit. .As they did in the old days. And as per the reason the original escapees from England migrated to East Coast north American continent.

Thinking perhaps they didn't plan on the stupid narrative lasting for too long. But figured by the time it wore off they would have the rest of their plan "their next move" in place. All the people with the stolen hearts, Kissinger, Cheney, Rockefeller, Bush they probably want to live forever - but at least want to live to see their "New World Order?"
Seems Dr. Steve P . hinted that the reason for the Coup against Hillary was that there was no time left and that was what they were going to shoot for once she got in .. ?
