JUDICIAL WATCH RELEASES EMAIL EXCHANGES OF RUSSIAN-RELATED MATERIAL BETWEEN NELLIE OHR AND DOJ TOP
JUDICIAL WATCH ^ | 8/15/2019 | staff

Posted on 08/15/2019 1:51:06 PM PDT by bitt

Judicial Watch today released 72 pages of documents from the U.S. Department of Justice containing Russia-related emails sent from Nellie Ohr to high-ranking DOJ official Lisa Holtyn at the time Ohr worked with anti-Trump dossier firm Fusion GPS. Holtyn at the time was a top aide to former Associate Deputy Attorney General Bruce Ohr.

In an email to Holtyn dated November 22, 2016, revealing her anti-Trump sentiments, Nellie poses a question in the subject line: “Who stands behind the Russian ‘friends of Trump;’” which she answers enthusiastically in the first line of the email: “Pornographer-turned-pro-Kremlin-media-impresario Konstantin Rykov!!!”

The documents show that Nellie Ohr was providing the Justice Department significant amounts of information on Russia via email from January 2016 – November 2016. She testified to Congress she worked as a contractor for Fusion GPS “October of 2015, give or take a couple weeks, and into the end of September 2016.” Much of the material Ohr sent to the DOJ is untranslated Russia-language reports.

Fusion GPS is the firm paid by the Hillary Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee to create the anti-Trump dossier.

The documents show Nellie Ohr’s providing Justice Department officials much the same kind of open-source research and investigative services she was paid to provide Fusion GPS.

Nellie Ohr told Congress that she worked at Fusion GPS on “a project looking into the relationship of Donald Trump with [Russian] organized crime,” for which she would “write occasional reports based on the open source research that I described about Donald Trump’s relationships with various people in Russia” She also testified she gathered information during the 2016 campaign about Paul Manafort, Michael Flynn, Carter Page, President Trump, his wife Melania Trump and his children for Fusion GPS.

JW does the job that DOJ refuses or is too incompetent to do.

This will end up to be the most well documented attempted coup in the history of the world.

Too bad that not one of the principal traitors will ever be brought to Justice.

“Too bad that not one of the principal traitors will ever be brought to Justice.”

OOohhhh, ho ho ho... but they WILL be.

And the intensity of THAT Perfect Standard of Justice will strip the flesh from your bones, and drive your very soul from your body.

OK, I’m not seeing the big WOW here. Nellie Ohr is sending things to her husband’s aide. Well, her husband was taking things directly to FBI, so why would Bruce Ohr need his aid to receive information from his wife. He was getting it direct?

The scandal, I get. Bruce & Nellie Ohr, Fusion GPS, Steele, the Dossier, the unmasking, the leaking, Strzok, Page, Comey, McCabe, Brenann — OK, I get all that.

What is the big deal with Nellie Ohr sending stuff to her husband’s aide. It sounds like just follow up and fill in to what her husband was walking over himself.

What am I missing?
