Proof that hillary and the DNC bought disinformation on Trump from high ranking Russians emerges

This is collusion. The real thing.

Dossier author Christopher Steele identified a former Russian spy chief and a top adviser to Russian President Vladimir Putin as being involved in handling potentially compromising information about President Donald Trump, State Department notes show.

In her notes, State Department official Kathleen Kavalec also referred to the two Russians — former Russian foreign intelligence chief Vyacheslav Trubnikov and Putin aide Vladislav Surkov — as “sources.”

The references to Trubnikov and Surkov, which have not previously been reported, are not definitive proof that either were sources for Steele’s dossier or that they were involved in an effort to collect blackmail material on Trump.

But the notes are significant because they are the first government documents that show Steele discussing potential sources for the information in his dossier, which the former MI6 officer provided to the FBI.

What this demonstrates for the first time is that the dirt in the dossier came from high ranking Russian officials. Interestingly, Trubnikov is linked to Stefan Halper. Steele poured it on to Kavalec:
Kavalec’s notes said Steele claimed Trump was “filmed engaged in compromising activities” with Russian prostitutes in 2013, but that “the Russians have not needed to use the ‘kompromat’ on [Trump] as he was already in cooperation.”

Steele, who operates a private intelligence firm in London, told Kavalec that Putin and some of his top advisers were running the Trump operation.

“Presidential Advisor Vladislov Surkov and Vyasheslov Trubnikov (former head of Russian External Intelligence Service — SVR) are also involved,” wrote Kavalec, who served as deputy assistant secretary of state for European and Eurasian issues.

Steele swallowed whole the load of nonsense fed to him by the Russians because he hated Trump and uninterested in facts:

Former CIA Station Chief Dan Hoffman has argured that the Russians recognized that Steele was an easy mark because of his hatred of Donald Trump

“They never stop,” Hoffman said of Russian intelligence operatives. “There’s no such thing as a former intelligence officer. The guy is going to be reporting back to the SVR or Putin.”

Hoffman has been a leading proponent of one theory about the dossier that has gained traction in the wake of the special counsel’s report. The former CIA officer has argued Steele likely fell victim to a Russian disinformation campaign.

A growing number of experts in Russian intelligence operations have embraced the theory, and Attorney General William Barr testified to Congress on May 1 that he is concerned about the prospect and is looking into it.

There is a very good article from Hoffman here, in which he states that the ultimate goal of the Kremlin was to undermine faith in the US electoral system. In that, Putin succeeded beyond his wildest dreams with democrats acting as his useful idiots. This is an FA post from a year ago February:
The Russian government had a strategic goal to “sow discord in the U.S. political system, including the 2016 presidential election” the indictment reads. The indictment also revealed activity pursued by the Russians to organize political rallies, building partisan social media audiences across the political spectrum, and funding political stunts.

According to Mueller, the Russian government created a sub agency known as the “translator project” which was “focused on the U.S. population and conducted operations on social media platforms including Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube” adding that the strategic goal of interfering in the 2016 US election was developed all the way back in May 2014.

The stated goal within the department was to spread “distrust towards candidates at the political system in general.”

Like I said, they succeeded beyond anything they were hoping for, thanks to democrats who still bitterly cling to the false Russian narrative. We now know that all of the salacious dirt thrown at Trump was propaganda and there was no collusion.

You actually have something there. Brennan remarked a few weeks back “maybe I got bad info” which segues nicely into their punting their scam to the big bad russki boogeyman.

But word has it that patriots have proof Brennan was the master mind. He will be going away to prison for a long time.

Why is it that so many people in Washington protect Hillary? I don’t get that. I heard she is an utter b*tch from hell, so why the ass kissing?

“Steele and Hillary and Fusion were duped by Russian disinformation and they innocently believed it.”

= “No, of course that U2 was not a spy plane. It was a NOAA weather reconnaissance flight that went off course when the pilot had a medical episode”

Damage control cover stories; a fundamental part of every CIA coup attempt!

A myriad of reasons.

1) Filegate where so obtained 900 raw FBI files in the 90s. Large numbers of them are still around and vulnerable.

2) Hillary’s lesbian homosexual and pedophile lifestyle, including Epstein island has given her blackmail on all of DC. DC has about 4 times the trannies of California an Hawaii, to of the most perverted states. MANY Republicans like Hastert and others are perverts.

3) Mena Arkansas cocaine smuggling gave her access to blackmail, the intelligence community, and dirty money worldwide.

4) Many are simply fellow marxist America haters.

That not one person has been charged with treason convinces me no one will ever be. 50,000,000 armed citizens in the street, supported by the President and hopefully joined by the military AND supported by God, is the ONLY way to make things right.

Soooo how did the Russians provide Hillary with negative (but fake) intelligence against Trump, then in their little pea-brains, claim Russia SUPPORTED Trump? These people are sick.

Someone should start sending these criminals waiting for their just desserts the lyrics to “Down In The Valley”

Hillary’s Espionage Act violations alone will put her away fro several hundred years and (ALL) those who conspired to coverup her treason should get the same.

DesertRhino wrote re Sergei Skripal:

The only Russian likely to be involved is the one who was “nerve gassed” (actually fentanyl). He was a long time associate of Steele and had lived in the Uk for years.


when will the name “Pablo Miller” emerge?

“” “” They actually put PROOF as the first word in the title, when the only source for the PROOF is a claim by Christopher Steele. From the same document totally full of made up facts and misinformation.”” “”

That’s another load of BS. It seems like Russian relations are as a target in this campaign as Trump himself. It is that Eisenhower was talking about at the time.
The idea that Russia meddled in favor of Trump is far fetched but the idea that they meddled for Hillary is just fantastic. For current Russian administration Clintons are in the center of that was wrong with their country during post-Communist transition.

It is not intended for people who are intellectually capable to establish factual links.
It is a damage control spin designed for idiots who wised up for 2 IQ points and don’t buy the first version of ‘Trump collusion’ anymore.

Yes, Putin interfered in the elections AND colluded with Billary, Inc. to provide the Dims an “insurance policy” should Trump win the election.

Putin was an equal opportunity meddler. He got one thing he wanted - disunity in the U.S., thanks to the Dims’ hatred for Trump denying them the honors of the “1st female president”.
