Newly Declassified Documents Show John Kerry’s State Department Spread Russia Collusion Narrative
thegreggjarrett.com ^ | 4/22/2020 | staff

Documents released last week by Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham give insight into a bombshell revelation about the “role of John Kerry’s State Department in fueling the FBI’s dubious Russia collusion probe, showing it was the State Department that provided ‘information’ leading to the controversial surveillance of Carter Page” reports Breitbart.

Amongst the redactions released are parts of the Obama administration’s FISA warrant applications used to spy on Page. As Breitbart reports, the disclosures of the text claim Page was “an agent of a foreign power” and that “the status of the target was determined in or about October 2016 from information provided by the U.S. Department of State.”

Newly released information also highlights how much the FBI, run by James Comey at the time, heavily relied on the Christopher Steele dossier as proof of Russian collusion. Of course, the collusion was debunked, and the nonsensical Steele dossier was paid for by Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign and the Democratic National Committee.

The State Department’s accusation that Page was a Russian agent “raises questions in light of previous reporting exposing connections on spreading the dossier claims between elements of Kerry’s State Department and Steele, as well as ties to longtime Clinton confidant Sidney Blumenthal and Cody Shearer, who is a controversial figure long tied to various Clinton scandals” notes Breitbart.

John Kerry’s chief of staff at the State Department, John Finer, was also instrumental in distributing the dossier. When Finer received a summary of the dossier, although it was questionable, he shared it with John Kerry. Finer had received the dossier summary from an Obama State Department official, Jonathan M. Winer “who acknowledged regularly interfacing and exchanging information with Steele.”

Breitbart cites an op-ed Winer wrote in the Washington Post where he acknowledged that “while at the State Department, he shared anti-Trump material with Steele passed to him by longtime Clinton confidant Sidney Blumenthal” and that the material all “originated with Cody Shearer, who is a controversial figure long tied to various Clinton scandals.”

Isn’t there enough evidence out there to put a whole bunch of people away? Or at least one hell of a lot of indictments?

The Rats think they are untouchable- they need to hope the thin vernier of society stays in place. Otherwise, they have a very short future, I’m sure.

I am hoping and praying, with fingers, toes, and eyes crossed, that Durham and Barr are lining these people up like dominoes, so they all go down in sequence. It has to happen, or we’re all done.

I’ve been saying it for about a year now that all these indictments and all this information is going to come out this summer and early fall right before the election

Right now they don’t want to step on the narrative of Democrats trying to make everybody stay home and cower - and everybody wanting to get out in the sunshine and be free!

Winer was Kerry’s chief of staff or general counsel when he was a Senator. I don’t know who FINER is. Maybe the writer coflated one person into two or there was a new player in town.

There is a small item on Winer at www.keywiki.org, under his site’s name.

Imagine a world where Clinton had won.

We would have known all this took place, but would never have been able to prove it.

This pandemic would have been used to implement single-payer and to, possibly, suspend the constitution.

The hatred of Trump and his supporters is because the socialists were one step away from having it all.

Unfortunately, they are still one step away. They have not been pushed back. Trump and his supporters are just holding the damn together.

"This. Should. Never. Happen. Again." equates to lots of people suffering pain of death.

Anything less will not deter these communist scumbags.

More evidence: The most EVIL administration in the history of this fabulous republic.

Obamas, Biden, Clinton, Kerry, Holder, Lynch, Lerner, Brennan, Strzok, Paige, Comey, ++++ downstream EVIL...propagandists, petty tyrants, etc., etc.

It takes some SUPERCRIMINALS to raze a republic.
