"[O]ne of the biggest revelations in the motion is that Danchenko himself was a confidential paid human informant!"
Special Counsel John Durham's request to unseal a motion in limine pertaining to the trial of Igor Danchenko, who has been identifed as the "primary source" behind ex-British spy Christopher Steele's dossier, has been granted.
A motion in limine is a "pretrial motion asking that certain evidence be found inadmissible, and that it not be referred to or offered at trial," according to Cornell's Legal Information Institute. The Special Counsel's motion to include the evidence against Danchenko reveals that the FBI was aware of his activities as early as July 2016.
"Beginning in or about July 2016 and continuing through December 2016, the FBI began receiving a series of reports from former British government employee Christopher Steele and his firm, Orbis Business Solutions, that contained derogatory information on then-candidate Trump concerning Trump's purported ties to Russia," the motion states.
"Earlier that year, Perkins Coie, a U.S.-based international law firm, acting as counsel to the Hillary Clinton Presidential campaign, had retained Fusion GPS, a U.S.-based investigative firm, to conduct research on Trump and his associates. In or about June 2016, Fusion GPS, in turn, retained Steele and Orbis to investigate Trump's purported ties to Russia. The Steele Reports played an important role in applications that FBI personnel prepared and submitted to obtain warrants pursuant to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act ("FISA") targeting Carter Page, a United States citizen who for a period of time had been an advisor to then-candidate Trump."
"Over a fairly lengthy period of time, the FBI attempted to investigate, vet, and analyze the Steele Reports but ultimately was not able to confirm or corroborate most of their substantive allegations," the motion added. "In the context of these efforts, the FBI learned that Christopher Steele relied primarily on a U.S.-based Russian national, the defendant Igor Danchenko ('Danchenko' or the 'defendant'), to collect information that ultimately formed the core allegations found in the Steele Reports. From January 2017 through October 2020, and as part of its efforts to determine the truth or falsity of specific information in the Steele Reports, the FBI conducted multiple interviews of the defendant regarding, among other things, the information that he had provided to Steele."

I had to look that up. Yep, that fits!
In slight defense of that Bashibazook, I admire the fact that he is properly armed to meet whatever the day might bring.
Girls all crazy for a well dressed man!
This is a "woke" well dressed man:
I’m jealous! I can’t grow carrots like that at 7,600 feet. lol
All you need is sandy soil but an antigravity machine helps.
Seriously, I had no idea until years ago I planted carrots in the sandy soil of Cape Cod. I dressed them with horse manure. Some came out 3 feet long and brilliant orange, very sweet. For some reason women would refuse to enter the garden!, LOL. Drukpa Kunlegs must have been lurking nearby.
speedy justice. It only took eight years to get someone to agree to look at something that could lead to something else. Wow. At this rate, my grandchildren might see something come of this in their lifetimes.
LOL
