Starting to read the FBI's 94-page Spreadsheet on corroboration, or lack there of, for the Steele Dossier.
Getting the idea that this will expose all the people involved in Hillary's plot to frame Trump. It's an inventory of the Trump Russia fake news! justthenews.com/sites/default/…
Of course most of the information came from Brookings Institutution and Orbis employee, & suspected Russian Spy Ivan Danchenko who told the FBI made up most of the stuff attributed to him.
Steele had a Russian friend & executive at Target Labs in the US who put Danchenko on their payroll so that he could pay Target Labs a fee & they would pay Danchenko who didn't work for them to conceal he worked for Steele.
This looks interesting, I have discussed before that I thought Igor Sechin at Gazprom was the target for Carter Page's intelligence activities for the USA.
Several sections in this are 'Sequestered by court order" which I read as there is a sealed criminal case about this info.
Very likely this pertains to the sale of a large stake in Gazprom, a state owned Russian energy company. A deal brokered by Marc Rich's former firm Glencore....
Again we find information "Sequestered by court order"...
Wonder if it's placement after the Yahoo story gives a clue as to what is sealed by the court...
Sorry I said Gazprom above, it was Rosneft that was the issue in the sale of allegedly with a huge commission to Page. Shouldn't thread before my coffee kicks in!
Looks like the issues around Manafort & Page's joining the Trump team might be under investigation too!
On Trump/Russian position on Ukraine, first some redacted "Sensitive FBI information" an informant?
Then another sealed by the court section...
It is possible these are a sealed case against the FBI personnel who filled out this spread sheet if they put false info into it.
FBI citing several articles blaming Russia for the DNC hack, but interestingly they only give the dates of the articles but no identifiers. I'm sure someone has run these down already to identify the authors.
Another area under court seal...
Here's a new name to me Daniel Tzinker a broker selling a Russian oligarch Dmitriy Rybolovlev a mansion in Miami. With links to other oligarchs? Part of the stings against oligarchs?
This section had a different classification code with the longer redaction block... Interesting.
Tzinker, Daniel Tzinker....
There is so much foreign money being laundered into Miami real estate that he would be a very valuable asset or target in the #ButNothingsHappening cases!
When the million dollar condo market is too flooded with sellers, buyers & brokers that you choose to specialize in the $5M & up properties that attract the big oligarchs trying to stash assets in the US!
He also get another mention as the go between on the sale from Trump to Rybolovlev of the mansion that Trump allegedly bought out from under Epstein allegedly leading to their falling out & Trump referring Epstein to the FBI.
Then they quote this blog post on Huff Post as their corroborating evidence. Yeah sure... huffpost.com/entry/the-psyc…
Not sure if he has any connections to the Clintons, he seems to have thought she was the lesser of two evils in 2016 but viewed her as a neo-con not a liberal.
Using this verification spreadsheet to red pill that Hillary & the DNC were playing the "Russia Card" against Trump...
This is hilarious, whether it was done to further the coup or not.
Using Russian & MSM news coverage of Hillary & the DNC framing Trump as their 'verification' that Trump did it!
Looks like the Black Ledger leak to the New York Times is a fertile area to dig for information on who framed Trump...
This is odd, in response to a dossier claim of a meeting between Putin & Yanokovitch. The admit they can't confirm it happened at all. Then list 2 'unrelated' meetings. A Putin/Erodgan meeting. Erdogan was in the Manafort run illegal lobbying meeting with Obama & Biden.
A lot of people haven't figured out yet that Mueller's Pit Bull @AWeissmann_ convicted Manafort for illegally lobbying the Obama Admin including during a meeting with Obama & Biden in the Oval Office!
Then it notes a meeting between Azeri & Iranian leaders in Baku. Site of a Trump Tower deal that exposed Azeri money laundering & corruption as a conduit for Iran...
Here's the end of one thread with a link to another thread on Trump & Baku.
Oops, Steele claimed Putin fired Ivanov as head of administration. BUT, he was still there for another month+ & then got a send off by Putin who appointed Ivanov's recommended successor. Doesn't sound like a 'sacking' to me.
In a discussion of TTIP trade deal, the FBI noted that Hillary shifted her position on the issue to get "support from unions." That sounds like a quid pro quo to me...
Anyone know anything about Trump speech writer & foreign policy advisor RIchard Burt?
Seems Alfa Bank & Alfa Group were involved in laundering money out of Russia & into off-shore locations & shell companies...
Looks like Alfa Group was facing significant pressure from Putin's crack down on off-shoring & tax evasion. Might provide a motive for wanted to harm Putin by setting up the Russian Collusion story...
"Other than open source speculation..."
That is the best euphemism yet for bull shit idiots were spreading on Twitter!
Then lots of BS reporting by Individual 1 that has many factual loopholes that the FBI notes in the spreadsheet.
Claims there is an Individual 2 who wants to defect from Russia with information & the compromising tapes....
No evidence of any of this.
Individual 1 is Hillary Clinton dirty tricks man Cody Shearer and this is the dossier given to State Dept official & former FARA Registered Russian Agent Jonathon Winner.
Winer gave this dossier to Steele to collaborate his information because the FBI couldn't...
Shearer tries to claim Trump was the middle man who organized several Congressional Delegations to Baku Azerbaijan! Highlighting these Swampy trips but FBI found no evidence of Trump's involvement, of course.
Using Steele's leak to Isakoff at Yahoo News as corroboration for Steele's information. Bad agent, no biscuit!
@carterwpage pointing the FBI at the Clinton Corruption again! This time Glencore getting the Rosneft stake claimed to have been reserved for Page & Trump. Glencore has 50 year history of corruption for every Swamp on the planet & their founder Marc Rich laundered money for CIA.
Glencore & Rich have played a central role in corruption & scandals all over the world. Serving as the middle man between dictators & oil companies to camouflage the bribes as sales & consulting fees. Then buying foreign policy experts to protect dictators
Lots of Micheal Chen allegations with little or no collaboration...
More Cohen & Manafort.
Again no corroboration other than claiming the Danchenko as the source for the information. Long after Danchenko told the FBI that it was all bunk.
More Manafort documentation, I did not see anything new. But if you know this area better you might spot something that didn't stand out to me.
None of it implicating Trump, but it does implicate oligarchs & US lobbyists like Podesta & Weber.
Bunch of pages on the alleged Cohen trip to Prague. No corroboration.
I have to think this was a bit of fake news fed to someone to see where it came out.
I have speculated this occurred when @felixsater sent an image of Cohen's passport to a contact in Russia for a visa
@MichaelCohen212 later released a picture of his passport that showed no stamps for the Czech Republic to show he had not visited Prague.
More @SergeiMillian claims with no corroboration...
Lots of redacted "Other Agency information" though.
Lot's of open source info on the companies alleged to be involved in the hacks & malware to the DNC, but zero collaboration other than suspected Russian agent Danchenko. Not even any redacted info that might hide corroboration.
Lots of footnotes! 21 pages of them!
I guess we will eventually learn that a significant proportion of these 'journalists' were taking money from Fusion GPS & other sources to print these articles to sell the Hillary Clinton & DNC conspiracy theory about Trump Russian Collusion.
Problem for Steele is that Danchenko was not afraid of being contacted by the US Government. In fact he had already reached out to the FBI & been interviewed with his lawyer without Steele knowing about it!
Document is available here: scribd.com/document/48005…
Some redaction that prevent an easy identification of another person that might be exposed too. Not sure if that is a source or a conduit for information... Contacts with Sen. McCain's office....
Sullivan’s Brady Order saves the best for last!
Day after Flynn interview DOJ lawyer notes say “NO REASONABLE PROSECUTOR” would bring the case against Flynn! #ButNothingsHappening
In looking a little closer it does seem that this lawyer from DOJ OLC is quoting FBI Chief Counsel Jim Baker. Which makes this seem like this is the meeting the coup blew up in their faces! And you have to see Comey & Baker's roles in this now.
I have long said that Comey was repeating what the coup plotters told him with "No reasonable prosecutor"
That the people who rigged the Hillary email case celebrated when Comey quoted their talking point in his 'exoneration' press conference that revealed Hillary's crimes.
Broidy is a long-time Swamp Creature connected to Swampy Republicans & Democrats. He has connections to many Clintonistas & parts of this investigation was started by Mueller targeting George Nader & others.
Why was @MarkWarner wearing a wire for @Comey when texting a Hillary Clinton associate Adam Walkman who was a Russian Agent & representative for Steele & Assange? To expose the effort to frame Trump for collusion...
After Comey & Warner blocked Ohr & Laughman at DOJ, a second effort was made by Manafort to get Assange hidden away in Russia using a Chinese bank to bribe Ecuador’s President.
The Flynn discovery revelations this week, combined with the DNI Ratcliff revelations & Comey's testimony have revealed some VERY interesting things regarding McCabe & the coup plot. If you look at the timeline of the revelations & of DOJ's 'mistakenly' scanned post-it notes
On 9/28/20, we got a new set of Strzok's notes with the date "1/4-5/17" Strzok's lawyers immediately notified the court that this was not his handwriting & was added to the document. DOJ claimed yesterday that it was a Post-it note left on while scanning.
This is important because there is a discrepancy among the records about when that meeting took place. Rice's CYA memo says it took place on the 5th. But Yate's alibi claiming she did not know about the Flynn-Kislyak transcripts could only be true on the 4th.
Sullivan allowed McCabe's attorney to file a response too. McCabe is claiming someone added & tampered with the dates on his notes too! They are also pissed that DOJ is giving these notes to Powell but won't give them to McCabe & his lawyers! courtlistener.com/docket/6234142…
DOJ filed today claiming the handwritten dates were on sticky notes that were not removed before the documents were scanned. But this does not explain why the two copies of Strzok's notes have different SCO evidence numbers on them...
