FBI busts Igor at @Brookings under Durham investigation. As we suspected, the Russian collusion narrative was a baseless, debunked conspiracy theory all along. nytimes.com/2021/11/04/us/…
“The inspector general report also said that a decade earlier, when Mr. Danchenko worked for the Brookings Institution, a prominent Washington think-tank, he had been the subject of a counterintelligence investigation into whether he was a Russian agent.”
Igor is formerly at @Brookings, but everyone knows that once you enter the Brookings club, you’re “always” a Brookings person.
Let’s see, suspected as a Russian spy while at @Brookings a decade ago. That’s when Strobe Talbott ran the place. Strobe was Bill Clinton’s former roommate at Oxford who got his big break in journalism in Moscow from KGB officer Victor Lui. Lui’s job was to recruit journalists.
Igor was at @BrookingsInst, not @Brookings. My apologies to the latter.
Just because someone has a Ukrainian surname doesn't mean he's anti-Kremlin.
