On the heels of former Attorney General William Barr throwing Trump under the bus, we get this bombshell from Special Prosecutor John Durham:
“FBI paid Russian accused of lying as a confidential informant against Trump.”
In 2019, Durham was assigned to investigate the source of the Russian collusion charges against President Trump.
John Solomon reported:
“Special Prosecutor John Durham revealed Tuesday in court filings that the FBI paid a Russian businessman (Igor Danchenko) as a confidential human source in the investigation of Donald Trump’s 2016 campaign even though it had prior concerns that businessman was tied to Moscow’s intelligence services.”
Danchenko, a Russian intelligence officer, was responsible for the fabricated Steele dossier that was bought and paid for by the Clinton campaign.
Danchenko had lied to the FBI on at least five separate occasions. After the agency fired Christopher Steele, it hired Danchenko to be a human intelligence source for the purpose of turning up dirt on Donald Trump.
Even before the FBI applied for the FISA court warrants to spy on Trump, it knew the dossier was fake and that Danchenko was a Russian spy.
In a court filing Tuesday night, Durham asked a federal judge to order a motion that these findings be released to the public. The discovery reveals that Danchenko was the source of the salacious story linking Trump and prostitutes in a Moscow hotel room where Obama once spent the night.
Durham revealed that the FBI knew of Danchenko ten years earlier when he tried to buy classified information from the Obama administration. At the time, Danchenko “was employed by a prominent think tank in Washington.”
Imagine that — a Russian spy circulating freely inside the beltway.
So, Trump’s lawsuit against Hillary and the DNC was dismissed this week by an Obama appointee who said that it was without merit. Trump’s lawyers had petitioned the judge to recuse himself, but he refused.
The charge that Trump colluded with Russia to defeat Clinton in 2016 was a known lie, and the evidence now shows that the FBI and Clinton were, in fact, guilty of collusion.
In Other News
Whistleblower tells Republican senators that Pelosi and other Congressional officers were advised to beef up security prior to the Jan 6th riot.
Pelosi has insisted that she had no foreknowledge of any potential threats prior to Jan 6.
Eric Hoar, an intelligence officer with the Capitol police, said that updated threat assessments had been forwarded to Congressional leaders from Dec. 21, 2020 through Jan. 5, 2021.
Hoar said he was harassed after he fired off a memo to superiors that political considerations had overruled public safety. Democrats were reportedly concerned about the “optics” of having the National Guard surrounding the Capitol as if it were under siege.
Pelosi and others downplayed Trump’s suggestion that the Guard be deployed as early as Jan 3rd.
Question: How did Trump incite the riots while at the same time advising that the Guard be called up?
Hoar quit the Capitol Police and now works as an intelligence analyst at the Department of Homeland Security.
Guns Stolen from Anti-gun Lobbyist
Anti-gun lobbyist and LA city mayoral candidate Karen Bass reported that two guns were stolen from her home.
The guns, she told police, were secured in a lock box. The thieves only took the lock box. They totally ignored the cash, jewelry and electronics.
How’s that?
Does her story sound a bit fishy?
On the surface it appears that the thieves only wanted the lock box which suggests they knew what was in the box.
How would they know that?
In any case, what we have here is a gun-toting leftist who doesn’t want you to own a gun.
State Welcomes Abortion Tourists
California officially launched its taxpayer-funded “abortion tourism” website. The service will assist out-of-state travelers who may be denied an abortion in their state. Minors are permitted to access the service without parental consent.
Thought for the Day
When did MAGA become a 4-letter word? I mean, that’s how the left uses it. What part of “Make America Great Again” is so offensive to Democrats?
