Journalist and author of the exploits of the Boston mob and FBI (hard to tell which is which), Howie Carr, says that Durham is legit....
Durham wont find anything that we don't know already.
Mueller job was to clean it up and leave nothing behind.
6 Things to Know About the Prosecutor Investigating Spying on Trump Campaign.Any truth to the rumor that Obama, Hillary, Comey et al are out buying luggage?????
6 Things to Know About the Prosecutor Investigating Spying on Trump Campaign.Any truth to the rumor that Obama, Hillary, Comey et al are out buying luggage?????
Durham’s resume includes investigating the mafia and crooked politicians.
Attorneys general from the Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, and Barack Obama administrations all previously appointed Durham to lead special investigations.
Barr reportedly selected him to head the probe weeks ago, as the FBI came under intensified scrutiny for spying on one Trump campaign adviser and sending a confidential informant to talk to another.
In the aftermath of special counsel Robert Mueller’s report clearing the Trump campaign of conspiracy with Russia to influence the election, many Republican lawmakers called for an investigation into how the probe of Trump and his team commenced.
Two known incidents loom large: The FBI obtained a warrant under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act to put Trump campaign aide Carter Page under surveillance. The FBI also sent a confidential informant to talk to George Papadopoulos, another Trump campaign aide, in a bar. The woman told Papadopoulos that her name was Azra Turk, and he later described her as “flirtatious.”
Comey was passing out immunity like party favors in his cover up of Hillary's espionage. I doubt that can be reversed. In many cases he also allowed destruction of laptops and other equipment. I suspect that we will find that for the most part that he was very diligent about covering his tracks, my hope is that he slipped up enough times to indict him.6 Things to Know About the Prosecutor Investigating Spying on Trump Campaign.Any truth to the rumor that Obama, Hillary, Comey et al are out buying luggage?????

If Barr/Durham expose the corruption that we all know exists.....will they be able to reverse the immunity given the criminals?
1.The Hillary campaign paid for an anti-Trump Russian creation called the dossier: they used law firm Perkins Coie to funnel money to GPS Fusion and Christopher Steele
2. The Hillary campaign screamed that they had been hacked, but refused to allow any government agencies to inspect the supposedly hacked servers
3. The FBI admitted that they knew the dossier was fake from the start, but used it to get a FISA warrant to surveil Trump and associates
4. A secret cabal at the highest levels of the FBI and the DoJ worked with GPS Fusion to undermine the Trump campaign...before and after the election.
5. FBI found classified data on Huma and Anthony Weiner’s laptop….so they gave them a pass
6. The FBI decided no charges against Hillary before they interviewed her…..with no record kept of the interview, and not under oath.
7. Both Huma Abedin and Cheryl Mills were found to be lying to the FBI….but given a pass ...and allowed to keep their laptops, and destroy any evidence on same
8. FBI agents Strzok and Page and McCabe talked over a plan to overturn the election….an ‘insurance policy’
9. Loretta Lynch with Comey’s acquiescence, worked to benefit Hillary’s campaign
10. Obama knew about Hillary’s use of unsecured emails, as he conversed with her on same…kept his name out of the reports.
11. BTW…..Mueller, Comey and Rosenstein were all government officials when Hillary received the $145 million bribe for the sale of our uranium.
....Robert Mueller was the FBI Director during the time of the Russian uranium probe, and so was his successor James Comey who took over in 2013 as the FBI was still developing the case. Rod Rosenstein, then-U.S. Attorney....
12. The FBI offered to pay Christopher Steele if he could corroborate the dossier….so he told Yahoo New’s Michael Isikoff about the dossier, had him print the information….then told the FBI that Isikoff independently discovered the “facts”…
Steele admitted, in a British court, that he leaked the material to Yahoo. September 23 Yahoo ran the story.
The FBI took the Isikoff Yahoo story to the FISA court to get the warrant….then fired Steele for sharing it with news outlets.
13. After the FBI fired Steele, he continued to confer with Bruce Ohr and the DoJ…and Rod Rosestein and Sally Yates.
In September of 2016, this was Steele’s statement to Bruce Ohr that he “was desperate that Donald Trump not get elected and was passionate about him not being president.”
14. And in another stunning revelation, the memo asserts that Justice Department official Bruce Ohr was used to pass information from the author of the dossier, Christopher Steele, to the DOJ.
Ohr’s wife, Nellie Ohr, worked at the time for Fusion GPS, the opposition research firm research firm that commissioned the dossier. Bruce Ohr, who worked closely with Deputy Attorney Generals Sally Yates and Rod Rosenstein, passed his wife’s opposition research on Trump to the FBI, the memo says.
15. Fired by the FBI as untrustworthy, Steele is maintained by the DoJ as a contact, and all the while, Bruce Ohr’s wife is drawing a salary from the group Hillary hired to produce the dossier….GPS Fusion.
Bruce Ohr’s wife’s connections to Hillary’s paid dossier-producers, GPS Fusion, was never disclosed to the FISA court.
16. Not Hillary Clinton’s Campaign, nor the DNC, nor Christopher Steel, nor Fusion GPS, nor Bruce Ohr’s wife, the roles of none of these participants in the creation of the dossier….not a one was revealed to the FISA court.
17. The memo also says that the FBI’s deputy director, Andrew McCabe, told Congress that a FISA warrant against the campaign adviser, Carter Page, would not have been granted without use of the dossier. That despite the FBI later determining that very little of the Democrat-funded document was corroborated
18. Let’s compare the zealous and very aggressive action by Mueller against Flynn, Manafort, Papadopoulos, and Carter Page with the immunity and passes given above…..
19..The memo notes that the Papadopoulos information “triggered” the FBI investigation into possible Trump campaign collusion.
It says that there is no evidence that Page and Papadopoulos engaged in a conspiracy. “
Spy Warrant Granted Based On Dossier And News Stories Planted By Fusion GPS
…and lots of evidence of associations of Democrats with the Kremlin….
…completely different treatment.
20. And all of the players in on the fix were demanding the Memo not be released….and lied about why it should not be released.
But he's not guilty of anything but winning the election....you dunce.
Downer's tip to the FBI turned out correct, so any imagined ties from a small decade old donation from his country is irrelevant.the Mueller report makes clear that the tip from Australian Intelligence about Papdapolous running his mouth is what started it.Barr has assigned US Attn'y Durham to investigate ......guess what?
Right!

"Barr Assigns U.S. Attorney in Connecticut to Review Origins of Russia Inquiry
John H. Durham, the United States attorney in Connecticut, has a history of serving as a special prosecutor investigating potential wrongdoing among national security officials, including the F.B.I.’s ties to a crime boss in Boston and accusations of C.I.A. abuses of detainees.
His inquiry is the third known investigation focused on the opening of an F.B.I. counterintelligence investigation during the 2016 presidential campaign into possible ties between Russia’s election interference and Trump associates."
Barr Assigns U.S. Attorney in Connecticut to Review Origins of Russia Inquiry![]()
They keep on trying to link the Russia investigation to the Steele Dossier and Carter Page, and it's ludicrous.
The FBI obtained FISA warrants on Carter Page back in 2014, which was two years before Steele was contracted to obtain the opposition research that turned into the Dossier. And further to that Carter Page was warned that Russian intelligence agents were trying to recruit him, and ignored the warning and continued to hang around with them. Trump hired a guy to work on his campaign that was under a FISA warrant for associating with known Russian spies, and then sent that man to Russia in the summer of 2016 where he allegedly met with both the Russian Prime Minister and an executive from Rosneft. And then they wonder why the FBI was looking at the Trump campaign.
And that's without even getting into the Papadopulous case pointed out here.
If you don't want the FBI looking at your campaign, don't hire people that are under a FISA warrant and don't hire people who brag about being an intermediary for Russia.
1. Sooo.....many trace the Collusion Hoax back to the Australian diplomat Alexander Downer who tipped off the FBI in order to save the world.
Wadda guy!!!
2. "ALEXANDER DOWNER DEFENDS FBI TIPOFF THAT SPARKED TRUMP-RUSSIA PROBE
Calling himself a “warrior for the Western alliance,” former Australian diplomat Alexander Downer defended sending in the tip that sparked the FBI’s investigation of then-Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump’s campaign."
- In his most detailed remarks on the topic so far, former Australian diplomat Alexander Downer defended the tip he gave the FBI regarding George Papadopoulos.
- Downer said that as a “warrior the Western alliance,” he provided the FBI with a memo he wrote after a May 10, 2016 meeting in which he says Papadopoulos mentioned that Russia might release information about Hillary Clinton close to the election.
- “I don’t know why he told me this,” said Downer, dismissing Papadopoulos’s claims that the diplomat was sent to elicit damaging information about him.

“They started by telling the story of Alexander Downer, an Australian diplomat, as having remembered a bar conversation with George Papadopoulos, a foreign policy adviser to the Trump campaign. But how did the FBI know they should talk to him? That’s left out of their narrative. Downer’s signature appears on a $25 million contribution to the Clinton Foundation. You don’t need much imagination to figure that he was close with Clinton Foundation operatives who relayed information to the State Department, which then called the FBI to complete the loop. This wasn’t intelligence. It was likely opposition research from the start.”

5. “Australian diplomat whose tip prompted FBI’s Russia-probe has tie to Clintons
The Australian diplomat whose tip in 2016 prompted the Russia-Trump investigation previously arranged one of the largest foreign donations to Bill and Hillary Clinton’s charitable efforts, documents show.
Former Australian Foreign Minister Alexander Downer’s role in securing $25 million in aid from his country to help the Clinton Foundation fight AIDS is chronicled in decade-old government memos archived on the Australian foreign ministry’s website.
Downer, now Australia’s ambassador to London, provided the account of a conversation with Trump campaign adviser George Papadopoulos at a London bar in 2016 that became the official reason the FBI opened the Russia counterintelligence probe.
But lawmakers say the FBI didn’t tell Congress about Downer’s prior connection to the Clinton Foundation. Republicans say they are concerned the new information means nearly all of the early evidence the FBI used to justify its election-year probe of Trump came from sources supportive of the Clintons, including the controversial Steele dossier.
“The Clintons’ tentacles go everywhere. So, that’s why it’s important,” said Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) chairman of a House Oversight and Government Reform subcommittee that has been taking an increasingly visible role defending the Trump administration in the Russia probe. “We continue to get new information every week it seems that sort of underscores the fact that the FBI hasn’t been square with us.”
Spokesman for the FBI and Russia special counsel Robert Mueller declined comment.

2. "ALEXANDER DOWNER DEFENDS FBI TIPOFF THAT SPARKED TRUMP-RUSSIA PROBE
Calling himself a “warrior for the Western alliance,” former Australian diplomat Alexander Downer defended sending in the tip that sparked the FBI’s investigation of then-Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump’s campaign."
- In his most detailed remarks on the topic so far, former Australian diplomat Alexander Downer defended the tip he gave the FBI regarding George Papadopoulos.
- Downer said that as a “warrior the Western alliance,” he provided the FBI with a memo he wrote after a May 10, 2016 meeting in which he says Papadopoulos mentioned that Russia might release information about Hillary Clinton close to the election.
- “I don’t know why he told me this,” said Downer, dismissing Papadopoulos’s claims that the diplomat was sent to elicit damaging information about him.

3. Soooo......the Hoax didn't begin with Hillary and the DNC colluding with Russia to produce the dossier????
WWWWWWWWRRRRRROOONNNGGGGG!!!!!
4. Bet you didn't know that Downer is a Clinton apparatchik, huh?
“They started by telling the story of Alexander Downer, an Australian diplomat, as having remembered a bar conversation with George Papadopoulos, a foreign policy adviser to the Trump campaign. But how did the FBI know they should talk to him? That’s left out of their narrative. Downer’s signature appears on a $25 million contribution to the Clinton Foundation. You don’t need much imagination to figure that he was close with Clinton Foundation operatives who relayed information to the State Department, which then called the FBI to complete the loop. This wasn’t intelligence. It was likely opposition research from the start.”

5. “Australian diplomat whose tip prompted FBI’s Russia-probe has tie to Clintons
The Australian diplomat whose tip in 2016 prompted the Russia-Trump investigation previously arranged one of the largest foreign donations to Bill and Hillary Clinton’s charitable efforts, documents show.
Former Australian Foreign Minister Alexander Downer’s role in securing $25 million in aid from his country to help the Clinton Foundation fight AIDS is chronicled in decade-old government memos archived on the Australian foreign ministry’s website.
Downer, now Australia’s ambassador to London, provided the account of a conversation with Trump campaign adviser George Papadopoulos at a London bar in 2016 that became the official reason the FBI opened the Russia counterintelligence probe.
But lawmakers say the FBI didn’t tell Congress about Downer’s prior connection to the Clinton Foundation. Republicans say they are concerned the new information means nearly all of the early evidence the FBI used to justify its election-year probe of Trump came from sources supportive of the Clintons, including the controversial Steele dossier.
“The Clintons’ tentacles go everywhere. So, that’s why it’s important,” said Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) chairman of a House Oversight and Government Reform subcommittee that has been taking an increasingly visible role defending the Trump administration in the Russia probe. “We continue to get new information every week it seems that sort of underscores the fact that the FBI hasn’t been square with us.”
Spokesman for the FBI and Russia special counsel Robert Mueller declined comment.

Wake the heck up, Dunce.
So if Trump gets a "tip" from a foreign diplomat on Biden, you are fine with Trump spying on Biden's campaign and placing Intelligence Community spies within his campaign?
Alexander Downer has absolute zilch to do with any FISA warrant. Alexander Downer is only relevant to Papadoplous bragging about gifts from Russia.You think the FISA statutes allow for a FISA warrant based on this "tip"?Downer's tip to the FBI turned out correct, so any imagined ties from a small decade old donation from his country is irrelevant.the Mueller report makes clear that the tip from Australian Intelligence about Papdapolous running his mouth is what started it.Barr has assigned US Attn'y Durham to investigate ......guess what?
Right!
The Russia Hoax!!!!

"Barr Assigns U.S. Attorney in Connecticut to Review Origins of Russia Inquiry
John H. Durham, the United States attorney in Connecticut, has a history of serving as a special prosecutor investigating potential wrongdoing among national security officials, including the F.B.I.’s ties to a crime boss in Boston and accusations of C.I.A. abuses of detainees.
His inquiry is the third known investigation focused on the opening of an F.B.I. counterintelligence investigation during the 2016 presidential campaign into possible ties between Russia’s election interference and Trump associates."

They keep on trying to link the Russia investigation to the Steele Dossier and Carter Page, and it's ludicrous.
The FBI obtained FISA warrants on Carter Page back in 2014, which was two years before Steele was contracted to obtain the opposition research that turned into the Dossier. And further to that Carter Page was warned that Russian intelligence agents were trying to recruit him, and ignored the warning and continued to hang around with them. Trump hired a guy to work on his campaign that was under a FISA warrant for associating with known Russian spies, and then sent that man to Russia in the summer of 2016 where he allegedly met with both the Russian Prime Minister and an executive from Rosneft. And then they wonder why the FBI was looking at the Trump campaign.
And that's without even getting into the Papadopulous case pointed out here.
If you don't want the FBI looking at your campaign, don't hire people that are under a FISA warrant and don't hire people who brag about being an intermediary for Russia.

Only the FBI and CIA can spy on foreign meddling in our election campaigns.
The campaigns themselves cant spy on anybody, nor can they accept foreign gifts.
when you setup that tip by setting up someone to say things you need them to say sure.Downer's tip to the FBI turned out correct, so any imagined ties from a small decade old donation from his country is irrelevant.the Mueller report makes clear that the tip from Australian Intelligence about Papdapolous running his mouth is what started it.Barr has assigned US Attn'y Durham to investigate ......guess what?
