Obama Slammed During Trip To China After Human Rights Lecture And Forced To 'Go Out The A*s' Of Air Force One Without Traditional Red Carpet

No Red Carpet Treatment For Obama


When the Chinese saw Air Force One pulling up on the runway they said roll up the mat! It's a wonder they gave him any stairs.

Once again it continues regarding "How The World Fell Out Of Love With Obama." U.S. President Barack Obama went to China last week for G20 talks and it did not go well. The Guardian newspaper in London is reporting President Obama was not given a red carpet reception in China, while his global counterparts were, such as British PM Theresa May. China, exasperated by Obama's antagonistic behavior regarding trade, the military and the South China Sea, knows his time in office is almost up and are focusing on new world leaders such as May to forge relationship with in the world. China, a nation that has invested over $1 trillion dollars in America, is also paying close attention to the current presidential election between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton, in reference to future diplomatic talks.

Last week Obama hypocritically lectured the Chinese on human rights (never mind he has wars running in the Middle East, which constitute human rights abuses). Obama took particular issue with what he deems a lack of  free speech in the Chinese press. Obama’s speech was downright hypocritical and comical to journalists and bloggers in America, who are routinely harassed, threatened and hit with unlawful and underhanded financial punishments from the IRS and Google Ads on his orders, for daring to criticize the policies of His Royal Excellency Supreme Overlord Ruler, Barack Obama.
British prime minister Theresa May and chancellor Philip Hammond received the full red carpet welcome in China last week

Obama unlawfully extended his abuses into Britain, engaging the FBI and CIA to illegally terrorize British journalists and their families, for exposing his criminal behavior in the press. Obama then proceeded to threaten the British people about the Brexit vote, which caused the populace to do the exact opposite of what the erstwhile visiting dictator demanded. 

There has never been a U.S. president who so opposed free speech and free press, as Barack Obama. He is a narcissistic megalomaniac who pays more attention to his press clippings than the skyrocketing national deficit. Just ask journalist Sharyl Attkisson. Her story is just the tip of the iceberg on how far Obama is willing to go to destroy the finances and rights of those who peacefully and lawfully criticize his political policies on television, online and in the newspapers.

Barack Obama 'deliberately snubbed' by Chinese in chaotic arrival at G20
 
Sunday 4 September 2016 03.27 EDT - The US president was denied the usual red carpet welcome and forced to ‘go out of the a*s’ of Air Force One, observers say. Barack Obama forced to exit from ‘a*s’ of Air Force One China’s leaders have been accused of delivering a calculated diplomatic snub to Barack Obama after the US president was not provided with a staircase to leave his plane during his chaotic arrival in Hangzhou before the start of the G20. 

Chinese authorities have rolled out the red carpet for leaders including India’s prime minister, Narendra Modi, the Russian president, Vladimir Putin, the South Korean president, Park Geun-hye, Brazil’s president, Michel Temer, and the British prime minister, Theresa May, who touched down on Sunday morning. But the leader of the world’s largest economy, who is on his final tour of Asia, was forced to disembark from Air Force One through a little-used exit in the plane’s belly after no rolling staircase was provided when he landed in the eastern Chinese city on Saturday afternoon. 

When Obama did find his way on to a red carpet on the tarmac below there were heated altercations between US and Chinese officials, with one Chinese official caught on video shouting: “This is our country! This is our airport!” “The reception that President Obama and his staff got when they arrived here Saturday afternoon was bruising, even by Chinese standards,” the New York Times reported. 

Jorge Guajardo, Mexico’s former ambassador to China, said he was convinced Obama’s treatment was part of a calculated snub. “These things do not happen by mistake. Not with the Chinese,” Guajardo, who hosted presidents Enrique Peña Nieto and Felipe Calderón during his time in Beijing, told the Guardian. 

“I’ve dealt with the Chinese for six years. I’ve done these visits. I took Xi Jinping to Mexico. I received two Mexican presidents in China. I know exactly how these things get worked out. It’s down to the last detail in everything. It’s not a mistake. It’s not.” Guajardo added: “It’s a snub. It’s a way of saying: ‘You know, you’re not that special to us.’ It’s part of the new Chinese arrogance. It’s part of stirring up Chinese nationalism. It’s part of saying: ‘China stands up to the superpower.’ It’s part of saying: ‘And by the way, you’re just someone else to us.’ It works very well with the local audience. 

“Why [did it happen]?” the former diplomat, who was ambassador from 2007 until 2013, added. “I guess it is part of Xi Jinping playing the nationalist card. That’s my guess.” Bill Bishop, a China expert whose Sinocism newsletter tracks the country’s political scene, agreed that Obama’s welcome looked suspiciously like a deliberate slight intended “to make the Americans look diminished and weak”...

Obama’s War On Journalists Evident In The Case Of CBS News Journalist Sharyl Attkisson Among Others


Barack Obama

The Judiciary Report has written articles in the past regarding U.S. President Barack Obama and his absurd and alarming fixation on journalists and bloggers, whom he has unlawfully targeted throughout his presidency for criticizing him in print and online. Obama has illegally and unconstitutionally sent the IRS, FBI, DOJ, NSA and CIA after journalists and bloggers, among other outspoken critics of his policies, ordering the agency to financially abuse, harass, threaten and spy on scribes.

Obama is operating under the illegal premise that he has the right to dictate what goes into the press both on television and the internet and those who dare publicly criticize him must be illegally wiretapped, their computer and emails hacked, GPS systems initiated regarding their phones and cars to track them, among other things, in gross and criminal misuse of taxpayer money.


Sharyl Attkisson

CBS News journalist, Sharyl Attkisson, began writing investigative pieces on the Obama administration years ago and the president went berserk. Obama, engaging in crimes against the constitution and violations of the U.S. Code, order members of his administration to illegally wiretap Attkisson and hack her emails and computer. Obama was bold enough to order spyware placed on Attkisson’s computer, allowing him to get advance copies of all her unpublished articles as she worked on them for print and television, to misuse and misappropriate as he saw fit (some items he illegally gained advance copies of via spying and hacking, Obama tried to thwart before Attkisson went public with them).


Sharyl Attkisson

The illegal spyware Obama had placed on Attkisson’s computer was later detected and resulted in a lawsuit against the lawbreaking head of state and his administration. Attkisson, like me, has been repeatedly stonewalled in trying to obtain an FBI Freedom Of Information Act file (when the FBI does that they are covering up criminal activity committed by the government and others who acted in tandem with them).

I’ve stated it before and I shall state it again - there is a perversion running all the way to the top in the U.S. government, that was not present with previous administrations. The Obama Administration is mentally ill to be spying on people like this. In the latest twist, the twisted Obama Administration now has the Pentagon labeling journalists "unprivileged belligerents" giving them an unlawful right to attack and abuse journalists at will (see article excerpt below).

STORY SOURCE 

How did the FBI manage to “lose” Sharyl Attkisson’s file? 

Posted at 2:31 pm on November 28, 2015 - Sharyl Attkisson, the former CBS reporter and independent journalist, has a long history of getting under the government’s skin. In her book Stonewalled, she detailed many of the battles she encountered when attempting to expose the truth in the tradition of the Fourth Estate and how unpopular stories tended to wind up being discounted or silenced. Later, her Nosy Nellie ways attracted the interest of the Department of Justice, though they have thus far failed to file any actual charges against her.

This week, Attkisson tells the story of how she finally sought to obtain her own FBI file and the mysterious answers she received. The bottom line for the FBI seems to be… Attkisson? Attkisson? Who is this Sharyl Attkisson person of which you speak?

Years later, in 2013, I learned of the intrusion of my work and home computers. The intruders utilized software proprietary to a U.S. government agency. I knew that the FBI had contacted CBS News and confirmed the computer intrusion. I knew that FBI case workers listed me as a “victim” in the computer intrusion, even though they never contacted me to investigate or help.

As part of my investigation to learn more about the identities of the computer intruders, I filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) and Privacy Act request to review my FBI file (as every citizen has the right to do). I knew that — at the very least — my file would include information relevant to my White House HARD PASS background checks and the computer intrusion. But I got stonewalled.


The FBI could conceivably get away with claiming to not have any records of somebody if they were a private person who never did anything in the public eye to attract their attention. (That you know of.) But in Sharyl’s case, she had been through the full background check in the 90s to obtain approval for White House access as a reporter. Did those records simply disappear? Did the dog eat their homework?…


Sharyl Attkisson’s Scathing Indictment of Obama for Ignoring Terrorism Intel 

25 Nov 2015 - Independent investigative reporter and host of “Full Measure,” Sharyl Attkisson is giving a blistering account of what one source called Barack Obama’s potential “personality flaw,” leading him to only see and believe what he wants to see and believe when it comes to the global threat from terrorism – that, as opposed to what ground operators are actually trying to report to him.

This goes hand-in-hand with recent reports that up to 50 intelligence types claim the administration has been systematically altering intelligence reports for political reasons. She was a guest today on Sirius XM’s Breitbart News Daily with host Stephen K. Bannon. According to Attkisson, her sources say President Obama is “selective about what he wants to hear and wants to believe when it comes to intelligence.” “I’ve spoken with people who have dealt with the White House and feel it’s a serious issue,” added Attkisson:

For example, one concrete thing we’ve seen as a result of that is the President calling ISIS a ‘JV’ team when his ground people say they never told him that. And you have to wonder who he’s listening to and where he’s getting that information from and why he continues to go with that versus the things being told to him, or trying to be presented to him from ground level intelligence – especially when he’s been proven to be so thoroughly mistaken over and over again.

She also said one source described it as “a personality flaw”, in essence, “the inability to open your mind beyond what you want to hear, or what certain people are telling you to understand the truth of the facts may be different than what you’re hearing.” He is “very insulated by some key people who protect him from information that he doesn’t want to hear…. That’s just the way he operates, apparently,” she concluded…


Stonewalled: One Journalist's Fight against Obama's Washington

11-13-2014 - Emmy award-winning investigative journalist Sharyl Attkisson's relentless pursuit of the truth put her at the top of her field. It also brought her to the attention of people in high places who wanted to shut her up. When Attkisson delved into the Fast and Furious gun scandal, reported on the disastrous rollout of Obamacare, then tried to uncover the truth of what happened to four Americans in Benghazi, Libya, something began to happen.

The Obama administration used hardball tactics to discourage, block, and suppress her investigative work and she says her bosses at CBS News did nothing. Most disturbing of all, Attkisson said her computers and phone lines were hacked and bugged by sophisticated parties most likely tied to the government. Her new book, Stonewalled, is the story of the Obama administration's efforts to monitor journalists, intimidate, and harass opposition groups, and spy on private citizens.

"(The politicians) think they own your tax dollars," she writes. "They think they own the information their agencies gather on the public's behalf. They think they're entitled to keep that information from the rest of us and "they're bloody incensed that we want it." Her book also exposes the sad state of the press and the dangerous decline of investigative journalism and truth telling in America today.


Obama’s Brutal War on the Press: “Pentagon Manual Calls for Treating Journalists as ‘Unprivileged Belligerents.’”

Global Research, August 13, 2015 - Pentagon manual calls for potentially treating journalists like ‘unprivileged belligerents.’ It’s well documented that President Barack Obama’s administration has been brutal in targeting whistleblowers who leak information to the press. The Department of Justice has spied on the Associated Press and Fox News to track down sources of information. It has slid down the World Press Freedom Index to 49th place, lower than several African and South American countries.

Now a new Pentagon document, a Law of War Manual, states that journalists can be treated like “unprivileged belligerents,” which is apparently the new term for “unlawful combatants,” which some may recall was the new term for “suspected terrorists.” According to some media coverage of the manual, military leaders are insisting they’re not declaring that journalists are the enemy. Rather they’re pointing out that journalists just might be the actual enemy, as in terrorists, spies, and propagandists posing as journalists.

The Committee to Protect Journalists, however, is concerned that the vagueness of the manual will give clearance to the military to detain and harass journalists with very little evidence that they’re doing anything but honest reporting:

This broad and poorly defined category gives U.S. military commanders across all services the purported right to at least detain journalists without charge, and without any apparent need to show evidence or bring a suspect to trial. The Obama administration’s Defense Department appears to have taken the ill-defined practices begun under the Bush administration during the War on Terror and codified them to formally govern the way U.S. military forces treat journalists covering conflicts...


Ex-CBS reporter’s book reveals how liberal media protects Obama 

October 25, 2014 | 5:12pm  - Sharyl Attkisson is an unreasonable woman. Important people have told her so. When the longtime CBS reporter asked for details about reinforcements sent to the Benghazi compound during the Sept. 11, 2012 terrorist attack, White House national security spokesman Tommy Vietor replied, “I give up, Sharyl . . . I’ll work with more reasonable folks that follow up, I guess.”

Modal Trigger

Another White House flack, Eric Schultz, didn’t like being pressed for answers about the Fast and Furious scandal in which American agents directed guns into the arms of Mexican drug lords. “G**dammit, Sharyl!” he screamed at her. “The Washington Post is reasonable, the LA Times is reasonable, The New York Times is reasonable. You’re the only one who’s not reasonable!”...

Sharyl Attkisson: Lawsuit Will Lay Bare Obama Harassment of Journalists 

By Sean Piccoli | Tuesday, 06 Jan 2015 03:40 PM  - Former CBS News investigative reporter Sharyl Attkisson told Newsmax TV on Tuesday that her $35 million lawsuit against the federal government won't stop this administration's bullying and intimidation of journalists, but it will drag the unsavory practices into the light for all to see.

Attkisson, who filed suit in Washington, D.C., alleging that the Obama Justice Department hacked into her computer in retaliation for her aggressive reporting, told "MidPoint" host Ed Berliner that she is going to court to get "facts and information" deliberately withheld by the government..."They'll continue to do whatever they do," she said of the government, which has denied the hacking.

Attkisson said she wants to "shed light on what happened, so that when some computers are illegally intruded upon — especially a journalist whose work and whose sources are compromised — it should be [considered] a very serious things, no matter where you stand." Finally, she said, a lawsuit that doesn't end harassment of journalists might still make it harder, and make officials think twice before attempting surveillance of other reporters...


James Risen calls Obama 'greatest enemy of press freedom in a generation'

Sunday 17 August 2014 21.24 BST - The New York Times reporter James Risen, who faces jail over his refusal to reveal a source and testify against a former CIA agent accused of leaking secrets, has called President Barack Obama “the greatest enemy of press freedom in a generation”. Speaking to his colleague Maureen Dowd, Risen accused the president of aggressively pursuing journalists, including himself, who report sensitive stories that reflect poorly on the US government.

Risen faces jail over his reporting of a botched intelligence operation that ended up spilling nuclear secrets to Iran. The Justice Department has long been seeking to force him to testify and name the confidential source of the account, which is contained in his 2006 book State of War. Risen recently failed in an attempt to have the supreme court review an order for him to testify, and acknowledges that he has exhausted all his legal options against the Justice Department’s pursuit of him under the controversial Espionage Act. In the face of incarceration that could come as early as this autumn, he is resorting instead to journalistic defiance...

Mainstream Journalist Who Is An Outspoken Critic Of The Government Discovers Her Computer Is Hacked By The FBI


Sharyl Attkisson

This is a follow up to the article New Scandal Erupts Regarding The FBI And Justice Department Monitoring Calls Of AP Reporters Confirming Previous Site Claims regarding the Judiciary Report breaking the scandal on the FBI and DOJ spying on journalists.

The scandal continues, as mainstream journalist, Sharyl Attkisson, revealed this week her computer has been hacked. Attkisson spoke to the Politico website about the matter, which states, "Attkisson believes the possible infiltration of her computer began in Feb. 2011 during her reporting on Fast and Furious." The "Fast And Furious" scandal involves Attorney General, Eric Holder, who is head of the DOJ, which is the parent agency of the FBI. 

The FBI has a computer program known as CIPAV, which is a trojan they surreptitiously and secretly install on select people's computers to spy on and copy the contents of PCs and laptops. It and other FBI trojans have been installed without court permission on select people's computers.

Recently a judge declined the FBI's request to install one of their hidden computer trojans on a man's computer, to copy then contents thereof and take control of his webcam to visually spy on him in his home (Judge Tells FBI To Buzz Off Denying Request To Hack Into Person's Computer And Spy On Them Using Their Webcam). During the case, the FBI showed off that they really don't need a court order to do this anyway and have done so in the past without obtaining one.

News also broke that the FBI and DOJ fought to keep secret the fact it began spying on Fox News journalists, via illegally hacking their emails and unlawfully obtaining their phone communications in conduct that is unconstitutional. The Judiciary Report is no fan of Rupert Murdoch or News Corp, two entities the site broke the phone hacking scandal about online.

However, under the Constitution journalists are entitled to free press and free speech. It's one of the founding principles of America and a very smart one. Therefore, to abuse the law to spy on outspoken critics is completely illegal and represents a dangerous power grab.

The granddaddy of all newsgathering agencies, the Associated Press, was not exempt from its journalists being illegally spied on by the government, which sends a chilling message. If the Associated Press is not exempt from its rights being flagrantly violated, what does that mean for the little newspapers across America struggling to get the truth out to the public.

The administration is testing some terrible legal waters the Constitution says it is not supposed to in conduct that is very unbecoming. When you've got the FBI and DOJ actively hacking journalists computers and emails and passing the contents on to the White House, crimes are being committed and the Constitution trampled. The FBI and DOJ's conduct is making Nixon era tactics against journalists look tame by comparison.
