Democrats are trying to deny their Russian Collusion Scandal

[AMart]

When did this occur? According to Trump, FBI and DoJ investigation supposedly “exonerated” him.

Both can’t be simultaneously true.

They knew the Steele Dossier was garbage, then used at the FISA court, then leaked it to the media to discredit Trump. The following Muller investigation then found nothing because there was nothing.

 

[Nostra]

Everything didn’t start with the Clinton campaign. The Steele dossier was originally commissioned by a Republican pack in order to stop Donald Trump. When Trump secure enough delegates to ensure the nomination, the original purchaser cancelled the order.

Then, when the Clinton campaign contacted fusion, GPS for oppo research on Trump, they dusted off the Steele dossier and called Christopher Steele.

So based on your assumptions, there’s absolutely no reason to investigate any anyone in the Democratic Party at all. It all started with Republicans going after Trump.

Republicans orderEd to Steele Dossier to stop Trump. Republicans gave the steel dossier to the FBI to investigate. Republicans started the Russia Investigation. Republican, Attorney General hired Republican Robert Mueller to investigate.

The Republican DOJ under Jeff Sessions, and then Bill Barr conducted all of the prosecutions based on the Mueller report.

Democrats had nothing to do with it

What a crock of shit.

 

[AMart]

A critical part of the Durham report, is that he was unable to show that anyone in the FBI had coordinated with the Clinton campaign in order to harm the Trump campaign.

You omitted the part about the Steele Dossier though.

DNC, Clinton campaign agree to Steele dossier funding fine

Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign and the Democratic National Committee have agreed to pay $113,000 to settle a Federal Election Commission investigation.

apnews.com

Guess who was really colluding with the Russians? Hillary and the FBI lol.
Steele was working for Vladimir Putin-linked oligarch Oleg Deripaska before, during, and after his time targeting Trump (who was then a candidate), and the former MI6 agent was hired to put the dossier together by an opposition research firm, Fusion GPS, which was simultaneously working for Kremlin-linked lawyer Natalia Veselnitskaya who attended the June 2016 Trump Tower meeting that was billed as a chance to offer dirt on the Clinton campaign. Hillary Clinton’s campaign, through Marc Elias, hired Fusion in 2016.

Steele’s main source, Russian national Igor Danchenko, allegedly relied upon a network of Russian contacts, undermined key collusion claims when interviewed by the FBI, and had previously been investigated as a possible threat to national security due to Russian intelligence contacts. And, according to Durham, Danchenko anonymously sourced a claim about Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort to longtime Hillary Clinton ally Chuck Dolan, who spent many years, including 2016, doing work for Russian businesses and the Russian government.

According to a DOJ review in 2020, declassified footnotes show that a 2017 report relayed information “outlining an inaccuracy in a limited subset of Steele’s reporting about the actions of Michael Cohen.” The redacted source of this information “stated that it did not have high confidence in the subset of Steele’s reporting and assessed that the referenced subset was part of a Russian disinformation campaign to denigrate U.S. foreign relations.”

Danchenko and Russian Intelligence

The FBI deployed the Steele dossier to successfully pursue Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act warrants against Trump campaign associate Carter Page before they had even identified, let alone interviewed and vetted, Steele’s main source, Danchenko.

“The failure to identify the primary sub-source early in the investigation's pursuit of FISA authority prevented the FBI from properly examining the possibility that some or much of the non-open source information contained in Steele's reporting was Russian disinformation (that wittingly or unwittingly was passed along to Steele), or that the reporting was otherwise not credible,” Durham’s new report concluded.

Durham charged Danchenko with misleading about the sourcing for dossier claims, including those related to the baseless allegations of a well-developed conspiracy of cooperation between then-candidate Trump and the Russians, which the special counsel said is false. Danchenko was also found not guilty last year.

The special counsel revealed that, even after the dossier fiasco, Danchenko was on the FBI’s payroll as a confidential human source from March 2017 to October 2020 before he was charged.


Durham discovered that Danchenko was investigated by the FBI as a possible “threat to national security," according to documents declassified by then-Attorney General William Barr.

Durham report: Steele dossier may have been ‘compromised by the Russians’ before FBI used it - Washington Examiner

Special Counsel John Durham’s new report warned Christopher Steele’s discredited dossier may have been infected by “Russian disinformation” before the FBI relied upon it. While Durham's yearslong investigation provided substantial evidence that many of the biggest Trump-Russia collusion claims...

Whether there was enough factual evidence is second guessing and Monday morning quarterbacking. The FBI doesn’t have the benefit of hindsight that Durham does.

This is a matter of opinion. Not fact.

That is a fact, nothing to do with hindsight or opinion.

By using the Steele Dossier, that they knew was garbage, they were intentionally furthering the Clinton Campaign. As they did when Comey said "no reasonable prosecutor" regarding Hillary's email scandle. That's not his call.

 

[Dragonlady]

The Republican Party gave the dossier to the FBI?

Says who? Bring a CREDIBLE LINK.

I posted all of the links to all of the reports upthread. Remembers all those links you complained were 3 to 5 years old?

Go read the links.

 

[whitehall]

My guess is that democrats will get away with it. When you factor in 99% of the mainstream media and the corrupt DOJ the dems don't have a thing to worry about.

That's not what Durham found.

Neither said the Republican party gave the Steele dossier to the FBI, liar.

Yes, it is.

 

[AMart]

That's not what Durham found.

But it's also what happened. Have you all 300 plus pages?

That’s not what the inspector generals report said.

Furthermore, the inspector generals report also said that the inclusion of a small piece of the steel dossier in the FISA RENEWAL application was irrelevant to the application’s renewal since it was a single paragraph of a secondary document in a 70 page RENEWAL application.

The inspector general also concurred with the decision not to prosecute Hillary for her emails which is why Trump fired the guy.

Last, but not least, the Huber investigation also agreed that Hillary should not have been charged with any crimes for anything ever.

 

[AMart]

The entire purpose of the Governments illegal fisa warrants using the Steele Dossier, Crossfire Hurricane, leaks to the media, etc was to kneecap Trump and get Hillary elected. End of Story, goodnight.

So you say. Prove it.

Prove something isn’t in there?

Holy fuck you are stupid.

Cut and paste where it says what you claim, liar.

There was no illegal FISA warrant. Republicans blew that completely out of proportion because it was the only thing they had so don’t even try that.

Crossfire Hurricaine was never leaked to the media prior to the election. The American people only found out about Crossfire Hurricane when Donald Trump started talking about how the Obama campaign spied on him during the election campaign. There were questions raised at the time as to why the FBI was talking about Clinton investigations in the press, and saying nothing about Trump and being investigated at all.

The only investigation that was discussed in the media was Hillary’s emails. When Trump asked his department of justice to come up with an excuse for him to fire, Jim Comey, Rod Rosenstein suggested that his treatment and Hillary Clinton during the election campaign by exposing her email investigation, and discussing it in the press would be grounds for dismissal.

Going to the press less than a week before the election and saying that the FBI was re-opening the Hillary email investigation, may have been the final nail in Hillary’s campaign coffin. Trump should’ve got down on his hands and knees and just call me it’s feet for that one.

Every FISA warrant was illegal, Dumbass.

They were all obtained on lies and perjury.

 

[jc456]

Schiff is right; the multiple contacts between the Trump campaign and the former Soviets were well documented as was (gee what a coincidence) Russian interference in the 2016 election.

Why couldn’t they ever produce them?

Post them for us! Obviously Durham doesn’t have them
