As we have seen, obama era officials at the FBI and CIA have constantly evolving stories about the Russian-Trump topic. First it was Carter Page. Then it became George Papadopouolos. Now we’re told that the FBI was trying to protect Trump, not target him. Then we’re told that Stefan Halper was an “informant” and not a spy.
As we have previously noted, Papadopoulos was contacted by Josef Mifsud within two weeks of Papadopoulos being named an adviser to Trump’s team. It was Mifsud who told Papadopoulos that the Russians had Hillary Clinton’s emails.
In the US affidavit, Papadopoulos claims Mifsud — referred to as “Foreign Contact 1” — told him in April 2016 that the Russians had “thousands of emails” relating to Hillary Clinton.
An associate also told CNN that he repeatedly bragged about how Moscow had “compromising material” on the Clinton campaign in spring 2016, contradicting Mifsud’s assertion that he never talked about Russian “dirt” on the Democratic presidential bid.
Mifsud introduced the “Russian national”, Olga Polonskaya, to Papadopoulos. Mifsud also put Papadopoulos in contact with Ivan Timofeev:
This individual appears to be Ivan Timofeev, a Russian official first identified by the Washington Post in August. Timofeev works for the Moscow-based Russian International Affairs Council. He also leads a programme at the Valdai discussion club, a government organisation that invites western academics for an annual audience with Putin. (Timofeev declined to comment. He has said of Papadopoulos that “George didn’t understand the Russian internal political landscape well”.)
Mifsud denied everything and then disappeared.
The million dollar question is “Why hasn’t the FBI found and interviewed Josef Mifsud?”
The second million dollar question is “Why isn’t Mueller interested in Mifsud?”
If there was an attempt at collusion, Mifsud is at its heart. Instead, Mueller is running down Trump people and not the Russians.

Except for liberals being foolish.
Why wasn’t the FBI looking into the DNC and Hillary’s campaign? There was far more suspicious activities going on there and, we are told, they were actually targeted by the Russians. Was Obama trying to help Trump win? Or was he simply a liberal political hack with ultimate power?
DEPLORABLE
can you name the leftist President who promoted: Brennen, Comey, mueller, + Rosenstein?
Hint his liberal father was almost as progressive a President as he.
@an ol esJarhead:
Can you name the president who weaponized the IRS, DOJ, FBI and CIA in an attempt to influence a presidential election?

@an ol esJarhead: True, there is a severe shortage of dedicated conservatives in our government, and it shows. Many Republicans are liberal at heart and subscribe to the “one world government”. They are in positions to try and depose Trump, a leader that puts American before everything else.
The first of two exclusives that were to break today. John Solomon is supposed to be breaking the other which will allege that the Obama WH sought to take over Spygate.
@another vet: Perhaps this is why Obama kept silent about the evidence the Russians were looking to “interfere” in the 2016 election; he could USE it to his benefit.
He allowed the Russians to go forward with their lame ad campaign and “disinformation” so it could parallel his own campaign to infiltrate Trump’s campaign, to spy on his people and try and tear his campaign down to allow Hillary to win. But, Hillary was far to awful a person and candidate to win, so now this becomes a campaign to discredit and impeach him. The minor, ineffective Russian meddling muddied the waters to confuse what was Russian and what was Obamaian but, since there is no REAL Trump collusion, the spotlight has been on this campaign long enough for the roaches to begin scurrying for the darkness to hide. The facts are gradually surfacing.
@another vet:
From who , the Bush dynasty?
Mueller is throwing a very wide loop. However, if the emails that are mixed up into this aren’t Hillary’s , but are the DNC “hack”, why have hasn’t Mueller gone after the DNC servers and that whole pigsty?
@SouthernRoots: None of that serves the purpose of trying to impeach Trump and damaging Republicans in the upcoming elections.
@Deplorable MePrecisely. If this were a legitimate investigation, all key items of the “allegations” would be the first priority to check out.
Confirm sources, who were all of these shadowy informants?; discover if Hillary’s missing emails were actually in the hands of the Russians and could be used for blackmail; discover who hacked the DNC and where those emails were sent.
Most of all, determine how the Russians knew more about the functioning of the Electoral College than Hillary did. If their “meddling” actually helped Trump, how were they able to manipulate the EC battleground states? Just messing with popular vote won’t guarantee much.
