‘Wingman’ Eric Holder orchestrated ‘Obamagate,’ says successor attorney general
Matthew Whitaker, a former U.S. attorney who served as a Trump’s acting attorney general between Jeff Sessions and William Barr, claimed in a new book that Holder โcreated an above-the-law cultureโ in the department that led to the bumbled investigations that the president has dubbed โObamagate.โ
The Department of Justice had been steered off course by a Deep State made up of Washington insiders who saw themselves as above the law. Recklessly inverting, bending, and breaking the law to achieve their own political goals, they relentlessly undermined the Constitution by flaunting the rightful authority of a President they despised.
Whitaker was an outsider with a desire to see justice done and democracy work. In his straightforward new book,ย Above the Law, he provides a stunning account of what he found in the swamp that is Washington. Whitaker reveals:
โข How former FBI Director James Comey and top figures in the Justice Department openly worked against President Trump
โข How the Deep State relies on the complicity of the mainstream media to achieve its ends
โข How the Deep Stateโdrawing on elite universities and corporate law firmsโperpetuates itself, keeping a small clique of people in power to ensure that nothing ever changes
โข How Robert Muellerโs investigation into alleged Russian collusion quickly concluded there was no evidence of wrong- doing by the President or his campaign but nevertheless produced a massive report that was intended as an act of political subversion
If you had any doubts that the Deep State actually exists, that it perpetuates a government of insiders, and that it inexorably pursues a political agenda of its own, then you will find Whitakerโs first-person account eye-opening and utterly convincing.
