How an alleged dossier source came to be identified in the media sheds light on Chris Steele and Glenn Simpson's press outreach campaign. dailycaller.com/2019/05/27/ser…
Sergei Millian was identified on Jan. 24, 2017 as an alleged dossier source. Months earlier, Simpson dropped his name to reporters. Simpson and Steele would later claim that they were concerned that a dossier source would be ID'd.
ABC News, Daily Beast, Financial Times, and Mother Jones did seemingly random profile pieces on Millian before he was identified as a possible dossier source.

I was both types on my trip from Kansas City to DC this week. Flying out, I showed up 2 hours early. Spent $20 that I didn't need to spend at the airport bar. Not efficient!

Compare to the efficiency of my flight back (efficient for me, at least)... theatlantic.com/health/archive…
My flight had already been delayed 45 minutes, which meant that I was overconfident about making it to the airport in time. I also didn't factor in that the Metro is garbage. So I arrive at Reagan at about 8:15.
My boarding pass won't load on my phone, so I have to make a side trip to get that at the desk. Luckily, it wasn't busy.

And then I spot a Chick-fil-A

Brennan and other ex-CIA officials fume about declassification order, but ignore that gov't officials have already leaked a ton of source/method information that was considered negative for Trump. dailycaller.com/2019/05/25/bre…
Some stories that disclosed very sensitive details:
-Putin directed attacks on election
-FISA on Carter Page
-Downer tip sparked probe
-Stefan Halper was FBI informant
-Azra Turk is gov't investigator
-CIA has a male Kremlin asset close to Putin
Leaks can come from a variety of places. But these leaks all pushed the narrative in one direction (an anti-Trump direction). Many of the articles were sourced to current and former intelligence and law enforcement officials.

FLASHBACK: Peter Strzok suspected CIA was behind inaccurate media leaks -- Keep this in mind as ex-CIA are coming out of the wood work to express concern that Barr will now start releasing top-secret intel regarding Russia dailycaller.com/2019/05/06/pet…
Specifically, Strzok believed that "our sisters" (probably CIA) "have begun leaking like mad." This was on Dec. 15, 2016, a day after someone leaked to NBC that CIA believed Putin directed hacking efforts.
But now, as NYT reported yesterday, CIA is extremely worried that the Barr authorization will put a top secret CIA source close to Putin in jeopardy. You catch the hypocrisy?

You will be surprised when you find out who Tatyana Duran is, her role in the #dossier. Who gave her State Department badge? I just received a message that claims TD/CS had an affair going on.
To gain access to our sacred, heavily guarded, US State Department building in DC is a huge endeavor by Tatyana. How TATIANA managed to pull it off? WHO helped her on US side?
Did TATIANA get an official access card(how did THAT happen!?) or somebody illegally walked her into State Department briefing room without proper screening as some of my readers allege? TATIANA holds many answers you all want to know.

David Kramer deposition: Mr. Kramer was chosen to sheepdip the dodgy dossier to Senator McCain and the media because he was a leading Never Trump and because he despised Putin and the current Russian regime.
Kramer has a long history with Neoconservstive war mongers including the Bill Kristol and Robert Kagan backed Project for New American century.
They openly wrote President Bill Clinton in 1998 advocating for the regime change in Iraq. The signatories are a who's who of war mongering Neoconservatives pushing for wars of empire.

🔥Sergei Millian–the Belarusian former partner of @realDonaldTrump and "Source D/E" in the #SteeleDossier–offered George Papadopoulos a lucrative "job," but only if PapaD got a WH job.🤨

@RepAdamSchiff says interviewing Millian is "of deep interest."😎

washingtonpost.com/politics/serge…
Millian was the source for #Steele's allegation of a "well developed conspiracy btwn Trump and #Russian🇷🇺leadership," overseen by MANAFORT, and said Trump had relationships w/#Russian🇷🇺officials who were giving Trump damaging info on HRC👉🏼"very helpful."

Millian also was #Steele's source for the salacious allegations that #Russia🇷🇺had incriminating sexual kompromat on Trump (the "pee-pee" tape).

Based on the work of Sundance @TheLastRefuge2 I've long held to the theory that Michael Cohen was placed in Prague by a FISA Query that got the wrong Michael Cohen. I think I found a good piece of evidence for another theory. #MichaelCohen #Spygate theconservativetreehouse.com/2018/01/15/hor…
@TheLastRefuge2 While it may be true that this information was searched for & found in the NSA database. There may be an alternative source for the information getting into the dossier. It may have been part of a sting versus Oleg Deripaska who was part of the Trump Moscow deal.
@TheLastRefuge2 There is clear evidence that the Trump Casino project was an FBI sting started in 2014 against the Russians. justice.gov/sites/default/…

1. There are no coincidences. The past explains the present and foreshadows the future.
For inexplicable events look for their connection to the spinal cord of the circle of filth, Glenn Simpsons Trump- Russia dossier.
2. Glenn Simpson of Fusion GPS, tipped ABC off to Sergei Millian, a Belarus-born businessman identified as a source for the salacious claims made in the dossier despite having doubts about the veracity of Millian’s claims about President Donald Trump.
3. This information is plentifully documented David Corn and Michael Isikoff's book "Russian roulette"
According to the book Christopher Steele told Glenn Simpson that Sergei Millian was "source D"for the allegations contained within the dossier.

reportedly, the guy who wrote the 'golden shower' dossier - here pictured with John McCain dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4…
. hmm.. recall: dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4…
. so Christopher Steele first passed the info to the FBI and then John McCain passed the same info - but both from same source?
