Would you be interested to know that the Trump Russia Collusion was actually an FBI sting against the Russians? Turned around against Trump by nefarious actors from the Deep State.
I was working on a thread on Carter Page, when I ran into something much bigger. @carterwpage & Felix Sater have both been identified as confidential sources for the FBI & maybe others. Before he joined the @realDonaldTrump campaign, DOJ even called him a Undercover FBI employee.
In looking at the documents related to the Evgeny Buryakov Russian spying case, I ran across something we should have all picked up on before. After the Page interactions w/ the Russians 2012-2013, new informants became involved in 2014.
What did they try to do to catch the Russians? If I told you these FBI sources tried to convince the Russian spies to help a "wealthy investor" build a casino in Russia would you be surprised? Prepare to be very surprised.
These pics come from the original Buryakov complaint filed with the court. He was doing a lot of things besides getting binders from Carter Page. Like getting set up to involve his bank (now under sanctions) in dirty financing for a casino in Russia. justice.gov/sites/default/…
I suspect Felix Sater & Michael Cohen were both involved in this 'transaction'. Sater working for the FBI, no clue what Cohen was doing. There are at least 2 Undercover employees or informants involved in taking down the Russians for the casino deal. abcnews.go.com/International/…
So how do the FBI operatives try to convince the Russians they are serious? By taking them on a tour & meeting of casinos in Atlantic City. At the time Trump had two casinos open in Atlantic City.
The spies wanted information on US banks related to sanctions. Pic 1 from NY @nypostnypost.com/2015/01/26/3-r… Pic 2 from the indictment.
It seems difficult to conclude that one of these two sources was not Sater & his constant efforts to set up deals in Russia. But now we know those deals were part of stings he was running for the FBI. More info at: nytimes.com/2007/12/17/nyr…
So how did an undercover FBI operation, maybe with Trump's knowledge as his associates were running it, end up in the media & FBI investigations of collusion? My theory? Blumenthal or Fusion GPS. I have theorized were using illegal access into NSA data to gather oppo research.
So what made Glenn Simpson of Fusion GPS so certain that Trump was up to something in Russia. In his testimony released by Sen. Feinstein, it was that Trump was pursuing business in Russia but never concluding any deals. Simpson felt that was odd! assets.documentcloud.org/documents/4345…
Simpson went on to document the roles of Cohen & Sater, probably without realizing they were involved in an FBI sting, willingly or otherwise. Was Sater stinging the Russians, Simpson was working for in the Prevezon case?
Simpson also keyed in on @MichaelCohen212 too in his testimony. So there may be much more to the Fusion GPS targeting of the Trump Team than just politics. It might be related to them helping the FBI in Russia corruption cases.
Of course it may lead back to the illegal access to NSA data from FBI contractors that Admiral Rogers of NSA detected in 2016. The contractors running illegal FISA 702 Queries would not be able to verify that colluders were actually working for the FBI. theconservativetreehouse.com/2018/01/14/und…
Sundance @TheLastRefuge2 has made a great case for this illegal access feeding the Steel Dossier & other opposition research in 2016. But what should the FBI do when they were waiting on proof against Trump to justify their warrants. Only to learn he had caught an FBI operation?
I suspect the Insurance Policy, discussed by Andrew McCabe was none other than burning their own undercover employees & informants to justify spying on Trump. No wonder Trump is confident, his "collusion" was a legally authorized FBI sting on the Russians, weaponized against him.

Breaking!
Neustar's access to government networks was worse than we thought!
And I thought they had everything!
It appears Neustar was subcontracted for EOP by Verisign, Inc. who had the federal contract to provide DNS services for ALL .gov websites! #ButNothingsHappening
Verisign Inc. was providing DNS services for the entire .gov system under a contract with GSA.
The earliest contract that makes clear that they are managing the .gov domain for the federal government is in 2010 or 2011, but there are contracts earlier. usaspending.gov/award/CONT_AWD…
Here is the contract from 2016 that was recently extended until June of 2022.
In 2014 when Neustar got access to do DNS services at the Executive Office of the President, Verisign was the contractor for all .gov domains. If Neustar was a subcontractor, it was for Verisign.
Durham then takes a shot at the fake news people on both the left & the right who have "overstated, understated, or misinterpreted facts" from his motion!
The worlds Swampiest commodities firm Glencore warns investors it is setting aside $1.5 Billion to pay fines in the US, UK & Brazil over corruption!
Glencore was run for 40+ years by Marc Rich of Clinton Pardon infamy.
They're connected to Russiagate too #ButNothingsHappening
Glencore connects to almost every Swamp on the planet, which is why Clinton had to pardon Marc Rich to sabotage decades of cases prior to 2001.
But they kept doing the same deals, including involvement in Chad.
As expected, Sussmann's attorney's filed their motion for dismissal today.
Focusing on the materiality of his lies to the FBI, it's not going to work but this is meant for public consumption not the judge.
Let's see if he forces Durham to reveal more! courtlistener.com/docket/6039058…
But Sussmann did provide a false tip, the Alfa Bank information was false. At a minimum Sussmann knew the results were misleading & he was attempting to get the FBI to investigate Trump so he could leak that to the media & influence the 2016 election.
Judges almost always leave these decision to the trial & don't dismiss cases before the evidence is presented.
Another example of the #CollegeAdmission scandal revealing parents that may be linked to other crime.
Gamal Abdelaziz was convicted of bribery for admissions.
But he's a Wynn Casino exec who used to run their Macau casino. Macau is a Chinese money laundering hub.
Wow, Charlie Savage saying @nytimes readers aren't smart enough to understand the issues so they aren't covering it up. They just aren't covering it because their readers can't handle the truth because it is too complex.
So just tell them a fairy tale that it is misinformation.
@nytimes Where it gets interesting is that it is NYT's who started the story that Sussmann gave the CIA information from spying upon the White House.
Were they throwing Sussmann under the bus to distract from a bigger story?
This could all be false information trying to spin the NYTimes. But the researchers are claiming they were spying on the Obama White House, not the Trump White House, so why take that to CIA in Feb. 2017?
