Read the Indictment Against Henry Cuellar to Understand Why Congress Never Challenges the Intelligence Community

Indictment:  https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/24636508-cuellar-indictment

There is a rather remarkable indictment against congressman Henry Cuellar (D-Texas, CD-28) that everyone should read.  You might remember that Cuellar was openly critical of the Biden border crisis in the latter half of 2021.  Approximately a few weeks after Cuellar was openly and strongly criticizing Biden, FBI agents raided his home {BACKSTORY}.

At the time of the FBI raid (January 2022), everyone noted the visible connection between Cuellar’s criticism of Biden and the launch of the DOJ investigation against him.  The timing was just too convenient.

Last Friday an indictment was unsealed.  Representative Cuellar and his wife are each charged with two counts of conspiracy to commit bribery of a federal official and to have a public official act as an agent of a foreign principal, two counts of bribery of a federal official, two counts of conspiracy to commit wire fraud, two counts of violating the ban on public officials acting as agents of a foreign principal, one count of conspiracy to commit concealment money laundering, and five counts of money laundering.

Interestingly, the charges and the activity date back to 2014 and continue over the next ten years culminating in the indictment a decade later.

I would strongly urge people to read THE 54-PAGE INDICTMENT.

What you realize when you read the indictment is exactly what we have talked about on these pages for well over a decade, the business end of American politics.  Cuellar and his wife are a case study in how the average federal politician gets wealthy from selling their office.

All of the DC politicians participate in this type of influence selling.  There are ZERO federal elected officials who do not participate in this process.  And within that dynamic, we find the answer to how the Intelligence Community exists to control all of the DC political systems without any checks in their authority.


One of the primary reasons the Intelligence Community was so fast to join the effort to eliminate the threat Donald Trump, represented in 2016, was specifically due to the lack of corrupt activity (IC blackmail) that could be leveraged against him.  Absent the ability to control the target, the IC must create leverage.

The intelligence institutions, in collaboration with the weaponized justice institutions, created the fourth branch of government.  It was this system that was fine-tuned by Barack Obama and Eric Holder to target their political opposition.

Representative Henry Cuellar is a warning to the other compromised people in Washington DC not to challenge the administrative state.  The “six ways to Sunday” groups will focus on anyone who threatens the system or breaks the code of Omerta.

Don’t read anyone else’s interpretation of it; instead, read the indictment [SEE HERE].   Then ask yourself if the DOJ/FBI knew this stuff for so long, why did they wait?

“I want to be clear that both my wife and I are innocent of these allegations. Everything I have done in Congress has been to serve the people of South Texas,” Cuellar said in his statement, later adding: “The actions I took in Congress were consistent with the actions of many of my colleagues and in the interest of the American people.” (LINK)

Henry Cuellar is learning the lesson Fredo learned.

Moral of the story is be an honest, ethical person

In other words, the Stasi and the KGB were not the only corrupt organized criminal enterprises to keep extensive dossiers of the populace (or, at least, certain elements of it)...

Indeed.

The only thing I can add to this story line is the various people named in the indictment, and their businesses/shell companies, are now assets of the .gov.  They may not have been charged (as far as I know) to get to the "big guy" but now they're assets.

This is part of the reason I walked away from my previous employer.  INDIVIDUAL 3 or INDIVIDUAL 1 per the terms used in the indictment were pretty much my former employer.

When will Pelosi be charged for insider trading?

You think they won't make something up?

Agreed, however, none of them are and this is how it is.  It's the culture.  The government investigators know.  It's all about leverage.

My first thought...

See Trump.

If you want them to REALLY bring the heat.
Meh, I would like to think I would, fuck the corrupt bastards.  We lost control of the government a LONG time ago, there is no reason lamenting how and why, only what can be done to get it back.

Child porn planted on computer in 3, 2, 1...

Not enough to be blameless. They’ll just make shit up and frame you.

Sensible chuckle.

Think about how quickly AI-powered link analysis will be used to monitor every person, target undesirables, and identify actionable opportunities (info that can be used if/when needed). You will either worship the leadership and the agenda, or be immediately identified, cut-off from society, and ultimately eliminated.

Absolute control by the powers & principalities is just around the corner.

This guy was right when he said something to the effect of “but everyone is doing the same thing.”

The exposure of his corruption and charges is the result of the border.  It got out of control and there was nothing he could do except publicly oppose the admin.  They didn’t like it, so they dug into their barrel of past corruption and pulled out all of the info they have on him.

Watched the movie "Flynn" last night.  He could tell you a thing or two.

*beep beep boop beep* you now have child porn on all your devices oops

I wonder what they had on Speaker Mike Johnson.

Perhaps I'm missing the link, but what is the tie to the IC?  The FBI isn't part of it.

@SmilingBandit

According to the FBI, they are.

Intelligence Community

The FBI is a member of the U.S. Intelligence Community (IC)—a group of 17 federal agencies that collect intelligence. In addition to using intelligence to investigate and solve cases, the FBI shares it with other members of the IC who may be able to use the information.

This, and chief Justice Roberts.

I didn't realize that the whole organization was considered part of it.  They shouldn't be, or at least anything outside of CI shouldn't, IMHO.

You can either be law enforcement or intelligence, not both.

Sometimes I think Roberts is just a squish.

Think they do more than most people realize.

Sharing Intelligence

Intelligence Community
The FBI is a member of the U.S. Intelligence Community (IC)—a group of 17 federal agencies that collect intelligence. In addition to using intelligence to investigate and solve cases, the FBI shares it with other members of the IC who may be able to use the information.

Law Enforcement
The FBI often shares intelligence with federal, state, local, and tribal law enforcement agencies. Our Office of Partner Engagement works with the law enforcement community to build strategic partnerships, enhance capabilities, and support critical information sharing.

Private Sector
Through our Office of Private Sector, the FBI regularly shares information with the U.S. private sector and educational institutions to help them stay ahead of threats and mitigate the risks posed by criminals, terrorists, and nation-state actors. This collaboration helps protect our economic and national security.

Change the names in Paragraph 1 of the indictment from Cuellar to Biden and isn't that exactly the scheme that Hunter was running?

Cuellar is guilty of being a democrat that goes against liberal groupthink.

That could be a political death sentence.

That said, he’s a politician and a democrat, so my sympathy is somewhat limited.  The FBI is far more broken and corrupt.

Yet GD will sooner or later post some story about how the FBI has arrested someone for child porn or sex trafficking and the mouth breathers here will all say hang him or have him drawn and quartered.

I agree

I agree

When and if she breaks ranks.

There are plenty of shitbags to prosecute.

But if there's any sort of political angle whatsoever you should be immediately suspicious of the feds' claims.

This ^ and anyone who hurts children and or is into sex trafficking need's be hung, drawn and quarted sewed back together and the process repeated

Attached File

Then he wouldn't be in politics or the government in the first place.

I thought everyone knew the FBI had been doing this from the start? Hoover's private files and records on people were the start of all this.

When her hubby stops entertaining strange men.

This could explain why speaker Mike Hunt was so distraught after his intelligence briefing. It probably wasn't from being pestered with talking points about the imminent invasion of moldova
