Early in my reporting that unraveled the origins of the Trump-Russia collusion probe, tying it to Hillary Clinton's campaign and possible Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) abuses, I started to see patterns just as in the old mob meetings: FBI or intelligence-connected figures kept showing up in Trump Town USA during the 2016 campaign with a common calling card.
The question now is, who sent them and why?
Interviews with more than 50 witnesses in the Trump case and reviews of hundreds of pages of court filings confirm the following:
- At least six people with long-established ties to the FBI or to U.S. and Western intelligence made entrees to key figures in the Trump business organization or his presidential campaign between March and October 2016;
- Campaign figures were contacted by at least two Russian figures whose justification for being in the United States were rare law enforcement parole visas controlled by the U.S. Justice Department;
- Intelligence or diplomatic figures connected to two of America's closest allies, Britain and Australia, gathered intelligence or instigated contacts with Trump campaign figures during that same period;
- Some of the conversations and contacts that were monitored occurred on foreign soil and resulted in the creation of transcripts;
- Nearly all of the contacts involved the same overture -- a discussion about possible political dirt or stolen emails harmful to Hillary Clinton, or unsolicited business in London or Moscow;
.....
- Several of the contacts occurred before the FBI formally launched a legally authorized probe into the Trump campaign and possible collusion on July 31, 2016.
Some of the instigators of the contacts have been acknowledged in public: Professor Stefan Halper, Russian businessman Hank Greenberg, former MI6 agent Christopher Steele and former FBI informer Felix Sater, who is "Individual 2" identified in the Cohen plea deal this week.
Others I identified through interviews, but U.S. officials have asked me to keep them private to avoid compromising their identities or nexus to intelligence and law enforcement work......

The SSCI and Mueller are working together (per Warner)
The SSCI has sent transcripts to Mueller (per Warner)
The SSCI has sent criminal referrals to Mueller (per Warner)
Now consider:
The same SSCI was conducting covert communications with Christopher Steele via lobbyist Adam Waldman.
The same SSCI publicly leaked the Glenn Simpson transcript (D Feinstein), everyone seems to forget.
The same SSCI (Feinstein Staffer) Dan Jones paid Fusion GPS $50 million to continue operations against President Trump after the election. [That's some CYA operation funding eh?] (And, oh yeah, Feinstein gave up her Vice-Chair seat)
The same SSCI had a security officer (Wolfe) leaking classified intelligence documents to the media (Ali Watkins).
The SSCI security officer was busted in December 2017, admitted the leaks (several reporters), and was never charged (Rosenstein/Mueller) with anything except one single count of lying to FBI.
Every corrupt FBI/DOJ and downstream official caught up in the congressional investigative web all want to talk to the same committee, the SSCI.
A whistleblower (Dennis Cain) comes forward to the DOJ-Inspector General Michael Horowitz. The IG gives the whistleblower full protection and recognition as a confirmed whistleblower. The IG gives the whistleblower's evidence documents to the SSCI (per guidelines); what happens next? The whistleblower gets a 3:00am 16-agent FBI raid courtesy of authorization no-one can explain.
You seeing this?......

Given how many in the Senate hate Trump, including Republicans, they may have enough votes to remove him when the Democrats impeach.
If so...the GOP will become toast.Rapier108 said:

On page 7 of the statement of criminal information filed against Cohen, which is separate from but related to the plea agreement, Mueller mentions that Cohen tried to email Russian President Vladimir Putin's office on Jan. 14, 2016, and again on Jan. 16, 2016. But Mueller, who personally signed the document, omitted the fact that Cohen did not have any direct points of contact at the Kremlin, and had resorted to sending the emails to a general press mailbox. Sources who have seen these additional emails point out that this omitted information undercuts the idea of a "back channel" and thus the special counsel's collusion case.
Page 2 of the same criminal information document holds additional exculpatory evidence for Trump, sources say. It quotes an August 2017 letter from Cohen to the Senate intelligence committee in which he states that Trump "was never in contact with anyone about this [Moscow Project] proposal other than me." This section of Cohen's written testimony, unlike other parts, is not disputed as false by Mueller, which sources say means prosecutors have tested its veracity through corroborating sources and found it to be accurate.
Also notable, Mueller did not challenge Cohen's statement that he "ultimately determined that the proposal was not feasible and never agreed to make a trip to Russia."
"Though Cohen may have lied to Congress about the dates," one Hill investigator said, "it's clear from personal messages he sent in 2015 and 2016 that the Trump Organization did not have formal lines of communication set up with Putin's office or the Kremlin during the campaign. There was no secret 'back channel.'"
"So as far as collusion goes," the source added, "the project is actually more exculpatory than incriminating for Trump and his campaign."...

Question for the legal minds: Do you think there is a chance this 'criminal complaint' goes anywhere?

WikiLeaks publisher Julian Assange was visited nine times last year by an American lobbyist for Oleg Deripaska, a Russian oligarch closely tied to President Vladimir Putin, The Guardian reported Wednesday.
Adam Waldman, Mr. Deripaska's longtime lobbyist, had more meetings with Mr. Assange in 2017 than almost anyone else who visited the WikiLeaks chief at the Ecuadorian Embassy in London last year, according to visitors logs obtained by The Guardian and Focus Ecuador......

Trump's Master Spooks
Imperator Rex/MagaRex/etc. is gone again, presumably banned by Twitter. I suspect he is the author of the above article on a new publishing venue, https://quodverum.com. (Thomas Wictor & a few others I previously followed are there too).
It's a speculative article, based on the premise that the FBI raid on the whistleblower Nate Cain was a planned decoy operation by Trump's spooks....an interesting read. I think it makes a lot of sense for the simple reason: What whistleblower on the Clintons would be dumb enough to keep the original source materials in his house, knowing that there were Clinton black hats remaining high up in the DOJ/FBI?

It is now clear that Mueller is building a layered narrative, starting at the edge of the drama, by first exposing Russian election interference and fingering the culprits in Moscow's spy agencies. He has bolstered his story with successful swoops against former Trump aides like Manafort and his deputy Rick Gates, showing their ties to pro-Russian figures in Ukrainian politics, in a case ostensibly about financial fraud in the dubious trade of international lobbying.
There has been speculation that he is trying to leave a detailed paper trail in public in case Trump manages to fire him in a power play or he is somehow constrained in his writing of a final report.
The continuum running through the investigation showing links between Trump's associates and businesses and Russia has been often subtle.
But it's increasingly hard to miss as Mueller plows into a new phase, one that is making it increasingly difficult for the President's defenders to claim that wrongdoing he has discovered unfolded far from the President's oblivious gaze.
What is so crazy about all this is the Left Democrats have shown themselves to be so destructive - and with further intention to continue to be - to America as we knew it, its hard to care how Trump got in. So their ultimate narrative still is a sinker. They claim Russia somehow spun info to help Trump --- at worst, that only for the first time created a counter-push against the 90% media bias pro Democrat.Wildcat said:
CNN is convinced Mueller is about to "lift the lid" on the investigation and Trump is on his way out.
