Tea at Trianon: An FBI Informant

John Wilson Croker on Marie-Antoinette

"We have followed the history of Marie Antoinette with the greatest diligence and scrupulosity. We have lived in those times. We have talked with some of her friends and some of her enemies; we have read, certainly not all, but hundreds of the libels written against her; and we have, in short, examined her life with– if we may be allowed to say so of ourselves– something of the accuracy of contemporaries, the diligence of inquirers, and the impartiality of historians, all combined; and we feel it our duty to declare, in as a solemn a manner as literature admits of, our well-matured opinion that every reproach against the morals of the queen was a gross calumny– that she was, as we have said, one of the purest of human beings."

~from History of the Guillotine by John Wilson Croker, 1844

Edmund Burke on Marie-Antoinette

"It is now sixteen or seventeen years since I saw the queen of France, then dauphiness, at Versailles; and surely there never lighted on this orb, which she hardly seemed to touch, a more delightful vision. I saw her just above the horizon, decorating and cheering the elevated sphere she had just begun to move in, glittering like a morning star full of life and splendor and joy. Oh, what a revolution....Little did I dream that I should have lived to see such disasters fall upon her, in a nation of gallant men, in a nation of men of honor and of cavaliers! I thought ten thousand swords must have leaped from their scabbards, to avenge even a look which threatened her with insult. But the age of chivalry is gone; that of sophisters, economists, and calculators has succeeded...."

~Edmund Burke, October 1790

An FBI Informant

From Tierney's Real News:

Former FBI Director Mueller has a long history of corruption - along with his co-conspirators Andrew Weissmann and former FBI Director James Comey. They also all have ties to the Clinton Foundation - just like Epstein. Epstein allegedly co-founded the Clinton Foundation to launder money and Comey was well-known as the Clinton fixer:
Did you know that James Comey has let the Clintons off the hook over FOUR TIMES in the past 25 years?
In the 1990s, Comey served as deputy special counsel on the Senate Whitewater Committee, which investigated Bill and Hillary Clinton's alleged role in a failed Arkansas real estate venture. Several people involved in Whitewater went to jail, but after James Comey joined the Senate Whitewater Committee as a deputy special counsel, no charges were ever brought against either Clinton for Whitewater. Sound familiar?
In 2002, James Comey, was the United States attorney for the Southern District of New York and was investigating another case involving the Clintons, and suddenly, with very little explanation, Comey closed the case. Critics say that Hillary made a pay for play deal - that’s how she was elected to the Senate.
Comey, then a federal prosecutor, took over an investigation into President Bill Clinton's 2001 pardon of financier Marc Rich because he made donations to the Democrat Party, the Clinton Library and Hillary Clinton's 2000 Senate campaign. Comey ultimately decided not to pursue the case. The kicker: Comey himself had overseen Rich's prosecution between 1987 and 1993.
From 2001 to 2005 there was an ongoing investigation into the Clinton Foundation. A Grand Jury had been empaneled. Then Team Mueller & Comey shut it down.
James Comey took over this investigation. Lois Lerner was transferred to the Internal Revenue Service. Rod Rosenstein ran the Tax Division inside the Department of Justice and Robert Mueller was the Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. In other words, they were all front line investigators into the Clinton Foundation investigation and they let each other off the hook. (Read more.)
