The FBI memo opening Crossfire Hurricane (which @JudicialWatch published) has something interesting in it.

dailycaller.com/2020/05/21/cro…
We’ve always heard that the memo was based on Downer’s tip about Papadopoulos and Russia.

But the section above blocks out the identity of a country. Weird because the memo names Russia elsewhere.
That section also suggests something about the government trying to establish ties w/ Trump team for post election.

Downer has never said that Papadopoulos made that claim about Russia.
One possibility is that this is a reference to Israel. FBI investigates Papadopoulos over Israel, and he met with an Israeli embassy official who was dating Downer’s deputy.
It could also be the Australian government.

I have CNN on in the background and faintly hear the anchor haranguing someone over coronavirus, so I assume the guy must be a conservative.
It was the easiest guess in the world. But the guest was Alabama Sec. of State John Merrill (R).

Trump and his allies are very critical of Sessions for recusing. On the one hand, they forget that Sessions was also targeted by McCabe in a baseless investigation. On the other, Sessions could have resigned, but didn’t.
Resignation was fraught with its own problems as well. If Trump accepted a resignation it would have been seen as him forcing Sessions out.
Sessions offered to resign, but Trump supposedly rejected it.

NEW: FBI Offered To Pay Steele ‘Significantly’ To Dig Up Dirt On Flynn.

Weeks later, Steele peddled a rumor about Flynn having an affair to a longtime associate of John McCain. dailycaller.com/2020/05/20/chr…
The FBI offer is tucked in the IG report on Crossfire Hurricane, but it’s gone largely unnoticed.

It has new significance after the release of House Intel transcripts and an FBI memo about Flynn.
From the IG report section on the FBI's Oct. 3, 2016 meeting with Steele.
