Exclusive=> Insider Ed Butowsky: Seth Rich’s Father Confirmed His Son Was the Wikileaks Leaker

Text of excerpt:

Ed Butowsky, the man who offered to assist the family of Seth Rich with the cost of hiring a private investigator, has told the Gateway Pundit that during a December 2016 conversation with the father of the slain staffer he confirmed that he “knew what his sons did.”

Butowsky further stated that the family was deeply concerned with their son being remembered for helping to get President Donald Trump elected.

“””Butowsky further stated that the family was deeply concerned with their son being remembered for helping to get President Donald Trump elected.””””””””””

Oh good Lord. You are embarrassed that he “got Trump elected” but not concerned that h probably did it?

[NEMDF]

This is the same family that says Seth was killed in a random mugging, and that any suggestion otherwise is a “conspiracy theory”, right?

Something is not right with this whole deal.

[Sacajaweau]

I don’t think the emails made any real difference. Just an additional confirmation of the rotten dealings of the upper echelon in the Dem party.

[Zathras]

...or concerned who killed him and-or WHY.
We of course on FR know the reason why.

[Democrats hate too much]

I think the guy was probably anyone but Hillary. Bernie or Bust.

[Democrats hate too much]

Anyway. Why is not on CNN? Or even Drudge? This is actually huge news. Deserves at least a mention on Drudge.

If this is somehow found out to be factual and true, Seth Rich’s father is one sick individual. Yes, I’ve heard that liberalism is a disease. But if the father’s concern is somehow related to and tied to President Trump’s election and not to how his son died or at who’s hand his son was killed, well that’s just beyond the pale.

Would it be better he was remembered for helping Hillery Lose. Either way its a good thing to be remembered for.

[Buckeye McFrog]

“Getting Trump Elected” seems to outweigh “Dead Son” as the major tragedy in this guy’s mind.

[HiTech RedNeck]

Like “Bad kid, traitor. Oh well that’s how my cookie crumbled.”

[GOPJ]

Anyway. Why is not on CNN?

Anything that might make Democrats look bad requires 12 confirming sources. Anything that makes a Republican look bad requires ... nothing. They'll run with a rumor...

@CassandraRules is a great follow on Twitter!

[rwoodward]

so he would have preferred to have the party who was responsible for killing his son be elected?

Here's a FR thread on this subject that contains a link to the Washington Times article which this article quotes and cites. http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3636659/posts

Goofed up the link to the FR posting that included a link to the Washington Times article. Here it is again:

Probably because it is this guy alleging that the other guy said something, a he said he said situation.

[Boogieman]

“Ed Butowsky, the man who offered to assist the family of Seth Rich with the cost of hiring a private investigator, has told the Gateway Pundit...”

So, hearsay from a publicity hound?
