Josef Mifsud is the key to everything. A year ago I first brought this up and it is more critical now than it was then because we have Mueller adding to the haze around Mifsud.

Who is Josef Mifsud?

Josef Mifsud is a mysterious figure and who he is depends on who you ask. Wikipedia describes him this way:

Joseph Mifsud (born 1960)^[1] is a Maltese academic, with reportedly high level connections to the Russian government.^[2] In 2016, he became involved with George Papadopoulos, an advisor to the Donald Trump presidential campaign, and was later accused of being a link between that campaign and Russia. In 2018, he was described as missing, and an Italian court listed his location as "residence unknown".^[3] According to media reports he is in Rome as of April 2019.^[4] In an April 2019 interview Rudy Giuliani revealed that Mifsud was a "...Maltese counterintelligence guy"^[5]

The Guardian

Mifsud is not named in court documents released on Monday, which describe how the campaign aide, George Papadopoulos, lied to investigatorsabout his contacts with “foreign agents”. But his biography and movements between Rome, London and Moscow, match those of the unnamed “professor” described in the court documents. On Tuesday, he acknowledged to the Daily Telegraph that he was the man described in the papers, but denied any wrongdoing, or knowledge of the Clinton emails.

The court documents paint him as a stealthy operator with links deep inside the Kremlin. While initially uninterested in Papadopoulos, Mifsud’s attitude changed once he learned that Papadopoulos was working for the Trump campaign, the documents say.

Newsweek:

As of March 2016, Mifsud was the honorary director of the London Academy of Diplomacy, located at the University of Stirling, according to the most recent cached version of an online biography. (The webpage was down on Monday afternoon and Tuesday morning.) He is the former president of the Slovenia-based Euro-Mediterranean University, also known as EMUNI University, and he was a professor at the University of Stirling in Scotland and the University of East Anglia in England, according to the biography. He apparently specialized in “international relations, public administration and management, public-private partnerships, diplomacy and Euro-Mediterranean studies.”

A spokesperson for the University of Stirling has told multiple press outlets that Mifsud is currently a full-time teaching fellow in the politics department there.

He previously served in Malta’s ministry of foreign affairs and, in the 1990s, as chief adviser to that country’s ministry of education. He helped Malta enter the European Union, the biography said. Despite the apparent secrecy around his connection to Papadopoulos, he has given many interviews, a number of which appear on YouTube.

The Mueller Report paints Mifsud as a Russian asset.

But there's more. Much more.

Nunes, the ranking member of the House Intelligence Committee, seeks to get to the bottom of Mifsud’s allegiances. In a letter sent Friday, the Republican asked the heads of the CIA, FBI, National Security Agency and State Department for documents related to the professor, who has been in hiding since October 2017, when he was named in Papadopoulos’s court documents.

Papadopoulos pleaded guilty on Oct. 5, 2017 to making false statements to the FBI about the timing of his interactions with Mifsud. He told FBI agents in January 2017 that he met Mifsud before joining the Trump campaign.

Papadopoulos did tell the FBI during that interview about a bombshell Mifsud dropped on him during a meeting in London on April 26, 2016. Papadopoulos said Mifsud claimed to have learned that Russia had “dirt” on Clinton in the form of “thousands” of her emails.

If Mifsud was affiliated with Russians, as the special counsel’s report suggested, “then an incredibly wide range of Western institutions and individuals may have been compromised by him, including our own State Department,” Nunes wrote in the letter, which was obtained by The Daily Caller News Foundation and first reported by Fox News.

Mifsud, who once served as a Maltese diplomat, taught at Link Campus, a Rome-based university that has close ties to Western intelligence agencies, including the FBI and CIA. Mifsud was interviewed by the FBI about his Papadopoulos contacts during a visit to the U.S. in February 2017.

Mueller also claims that Mifsud lied to the FBI about his contacts with Papadopoulos, but Mifsud was not charged.
