This Allen Parrot story about Osama bin Laden being in Iran has been around for years. Former CIA agent Bob Baer always seems to get tied to it too.

Baer was also linked to a proto-dossier on Donald Trump and Russia from Cody Shearer.

Here is @LeeSmithDC story on the Cody Shearer's proto-dossier.

Robert Baer was one of Shearer's sources.

Now what does that have to do with the Iran-Biden-Osama story which will undoubtedly self implode? I don't know. But, let's see how it pans out.
Is it Backfire Hurricane?

Could it be those that tried to take down Trump the first time are now trying to push an October Surprise that will blow up in Trump's face?

Republicans watched Robert Mueller claim Joseph Mifsud wasnt in his purview.

Yet Mueller used him as the basis for Crossfire Hurricane. Mentioning Mifsud 80+ times. He even tried linking him to IRA.

FBI and CIA train at Mifsud's lil campus. That should have been the story.
If Comey and others were cherrypicking and using media reports rather than their own investigations that is a scandal in itself.

We know thanks to @CrowdStrike privacy counsel that Joseph Mifsud's Link Campus was used for intelligence cooperation. A major scandal in itself!
A suspected Kremlin agent working alongside US intelligence figures in Rome. A major counterintelligence failure.

Republicans should have pressed it. But why did they let the foot off the gas?

Classified work? Diplomatic sensitivities? Durham's criminal probe?

Alexander Downer has always been a magnet for scandal. Much like Enzo Scotti at Link Campus.

@GeorgePapa19 didn't stand a chance.


Here is more on the Australian AWB scandal involving Downer. His moonlighting for Hakluyt caused a diplomatic incident.

Australian Federal Police (AFP) whistleblowers told the media they were pressured to make the AWB Oil-for-food scandal disappear.
Here is the whistleblower talking about the pressure on him to drop the case.

Natasha "Fusion" Bertrand published an interesting article on foreign cooperation with US agencies investigating the Trump campaign in April17.

"In August- more than eight month after British officials were alerted to Trump-Russia contacts."

Jan16?
"It looks like the [US] agencies were asleep."

If British intelligence were talking about Trump figures talking to Russian intelligence figures in 2015 who were they talking about? Carter Page? Paul Manafort?

Natasha's and The Guardian source was Chris Steele.
Paul Wood knew that the pantomime began in Spring, but Peter Strzok and John Brennan have now moved the goalposts.

They say the fusions cells were setup in August 2016.

So, how much information was coming from Europe and when?

@AWeissmann_ book revealed Paul Manafort had been under federal investigation 4 times before Crossfire Hurricane.

Manafort was the focus of US investigators looking at Pakistani intelligence linkages in the US. Manafort was working with radical Jamaat-i-Islami figures. Image
scroll.in/latest/806852/…

Indian and French security officials told me they used to think Manafort worked for the CIA judging on his ability to cause headlines, but escape scrutiny.

He was working with an ISI front in Washington.

Why did Mueller's let him off the hook in 2011? Image
Ghulam Nabi Fai was a member of Jamaat-i-Islami, South Asia's premier fundamentalist outfit. Fai is a friend of Hizbul Mujahideen leader Syed Salahuddin.

Jamaat figures sheltered senior al-Qaeda leaders in Pakistan. Built jihad camps which Osama used.

Remember when @Jim_Jordan and @MarkMeadows asked why two DOJ prosecutors Andrew Weissman and Zainab Ahmad had been liasing with Bruce Ohr on Steele dossier related matters in 2016?

Counterintelligence probe? Prosecutors read in on Steele dossier?
"In 2016, prior to the presidential election..." 🤔
Weissman and Ahmad had been told by Bruce Ohr that Christoper Steele (employed by the DNC) was desperate to prevent @realDonaldTrump from becoming President.

Ahmad had been plucked from New York and moved to headquarters in the Spring of 2016. Organised a conference for @Comey

For those who say Alexander Downer doesn't do spying.

When he was Australian High Commissioner to the UK.

MI5 complained he was still moonlighting for a Hakluyt, a private intelligence firm while in the role. A serious breach of diplomatic protocol.

news.com.au/world/britain-…
Downer doesn't mind breaking the rules. He's always been like that. Leading the charge for Australia to get involved in the Iraq invasion.
smh.com.au/national/downe…

Ever hear about his role in the Iraq Oil for Wheat scandal?

Dodgy Downer has been getting involved in lots of dubious schemes over the years.

Dropping a Trump foreign policy advisor into a an FBI sheetstorm is just another scandal to add to the list.
