BERTRAND DAILY REPORT 08/11/2017 INTELLIGENCE BRIEFING

Bertrand Daily Report The War For Our Mind & Soul Continues

Subject: Your Morning Intelligence Brief (August 11th, 2017)

Ed Note: Let's see.....Susan Rice says that North Korea should be allowed to have nuclear weapons, the Chinese are saying they will have to react if the U.S. launches a preemptive strike on NK, and the Dems / media are condemning President Trump for "provoking" Munchkin-Un with "threats." The confusion places the United States in a corner of which Trump will have to make a move soon...

It appears there is more on the horizon as we speak with teams arriving daily (in this area) to make a "documentary film" about the de-commissioned ICBM underground silos in Montana. According to some analysts, there are between 20 and 50 active ICBM silos out of approximately 200 that dot the central northwest landscape. If you recall in the movie, "Close Encounters of The Third Kind," the military wanted to evacuate the entire area surrounding Devil's Monument in Wyoming with a fake airborne disease while trucks with Baskin and Robbins, or Coca Cola signs transported sensitive equipment to the area where extraterrestrials were expected to land.

Here we are today with a NK nuclear threat, not to mention China's latest threat, and a guest on the Hannity Show stating that "we have over 200 ICBMS ready to launch."

Well do we??? Or is this so-called "documentary" and all the strange faces showing-up in this sleepy Montana town a ruse for (maybe) putting the missiles back online? What does the administration REALLY know about what China might do??

Federal Judge Orders State Department to Search for Clinton’s Benghazi Emails

By Joe Hagmann

August 10, 2017

Nine months after Hillary Clinton was defeated by Donald Trump in the 2016 presidential election, a federal judge is ordering the State Department to make another attempt in locating Clinton’s missing emails about the 2012 Benghazi terrorist attack.

U.S. District Court Judge Amit Mehta ruled Tuesday that the State Department did not do enough to “track down messages Clinton may have sent about the assault on the U.S. diplomatic compound on Sept. 11, 2012 — an attack that killed four Americans, including the U.S. ambassador to Libya,” Politico reported:

In response to Freedom of Information Act requests, State searched the roughly 30,000 messages Clinton turned over to her former agency at its request in December 2014 after officials searching for Benghazi-related records realized she had used a personal email account during her four-year tenure as secretary.

State later searched tens of thousands of emails handed over to the agency by three former top aides to Clinton: Huma Abedin, Cheryl Mills and Jake Sullivan. Finally, State searched a collection of emails the FBI assembled when it was investigating Clinton’s use of the private account and server.

In all, State found 348 Benghazi-related messages or documents that were sent to or from Clinton in a period of nearly five months after the attack.

Judicial Watch, a conservative watchdog group, said the State Department’s initial search was not good enough because it didn’t search the email accounts of Clinton’s top aides for relevant messages pertaining to Benghazi.
