Highly recommend this podcast with @MichaelRCaputo, a few observations below

https://twitter.com/ByronYork/status/1124678990483075072

Caputo says he never met longtime FBI informant and Russian national “Henry Greenberg” (HG)

HG approached Caputo in June 2016 offering dirt on Hillary

Caputo says he only spoke to HG on the phone and put him in touch with his best friend Roger Stone, who met him instead

HG was interviewed by the FBI and he testified that Caputo was *physically present at the meeting with Stone*

But, Caputo confirms that Mueller not only had Caputo’s denial of meeting HG, he had a text message that Caputo sent to Stone just after the meeting asking “How did the meeting go?”

Stone replied saying HG wanted money for the “dirt” and Stone rejected the offer

Given Caputo’s testimony to Mueller, the contemporaneous text evidence (and Mueller probably has access to Caputo’s electronic location metadata as well), that means it is highly likely “Greenberg” **lied to the FBI and Mueller’s team**

Why wasn’t he charged, like @GeorgePapa19?

A plausible explanation is that “Henry Greenberg” was instructed to make that offer to Caputo/Stone by the FBI, who he’d worked as an informant for already

And that instruction was given in May/June 2016, before “Crossfire Hurricane” was opened on July 31

Caputo also reveals a few other interesting details:

—His recent visit to the White House to see Trump, along with his family

—That his Mueller interview was with two FBI agents and Mueller Prosecutor Zelinsky. The FBI agents only wrote their 302s and never said anything

Recommend you give this a listen, and see if you can spot the name of ANOTHER potential suspicious informant approaching Caputo offering Hillary Clinton dirt, blink and you’ll miss it...
