FBI’s Stated Reason For Their Trump-Russia Investigation Is Coming Apart At The Seams
If the FBI Trump-Russia (“Crossfire Hurricane) conspiracy investigation was opened in response to a tip from Australian Ambassador Alexander Downer that little known Trump advisor, George Papadopolis, has told him that he had been told Hillary Clinton’s 30k disappeared emails were in the hands of the Russians, then it was a classic case of “lifting yourself up by your own bootstraps” because Papadopolis was feed that rumor to pass on by FBI confidential human sources (CHS), Stefan Halper & Joseph Mifsud. In other words, the impetus and justification to initiate Crossfire Hurricane by the FBI was manufactured by their own hand. On another hand it should be noted that James Comey admitted that the FBI already highly suspected those emails had been hacked by foreign governments and publicly stated so in his infamous July 5, 2016 declination/absolution speech.
“...With respect to potential computer intrusion by hostile actors, we did not find direct evidence that Secretary Clinton’s personal e-mail domain, in its various configurations since 2009, was successfully hacked. But, given the nature of the system and of the actors potentially involved, we assess that we would be unlikely to see such direct evidence. We do assess that hostile actors gained access to the private commercial e-mail accounts of people with whom Secretary Clinton was in regular contact from her personal account. We also assess that Secretary Clinton’s use of a personal e-mail domain was both known by a large number of people and readily apparent. She also used her personal e-mail extensively while outside the United States, including sending and receiving work-related e-mails in the territory of sophisticated adversaries. Given that combination of factors, we assess it is possible that hostile actors gained access to Secretary Clinton’s personal e-mail account...” — James Comey, July 5, 2016
Everybody with a brain knew HRC’s emails had been hacked by the Russians and others, and many of us said & wrote so repeatedly, so why would Papadopolis’ merely repeating that widely known speculation invoke and justify an anal exam of a major presidential candidate and subsequent president?
