Who is Obama administration official who spilled beans?
Fox News ^ | March 29, 2017 | Alex Diaz

Posted on 03/30/2017 7:34:28 AM PDT by Religion and Politics

Farkas notably served as deputy assistant secretary of defense for Russia/Ukraine/Eurasia under President Obama, and parted ways with the White House in 2015 after some five years amid the ongoing debate over how to respond to Russia's role in the unfolding conflict in Ukraine. ... Farkas would go on to serve as a foreign policy advisor for Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton, telling the New Yorker earlier this month that she thought Clinton "got it" when it came to issues regarding Russia.

Can you believe it? Farkas wasn't even in the Obama administration during this time. She was:

I was urging my former colleagues and, frankly speaking, the people on the Hill... get as much information as you can," Farkas said, adding that her big fear was "if [Trump staffers] found out how we knew what we knew about their ... the Trump staff dealing with Russians – that they would try to compromise those sources and methods, meaning we no longer have access to that intelligence.”

They truly WERE former colleagues at the time! Unbelievable!

Now, watch this AGAIN and realize that Evelyn Farkas was on the HILLARY TEAM! Time for some real investigative journalism IMO!

I’m curious if the MSM is covering this, at all.

Does anyone know?

This story smells funny all over.

Is she saying they had intel on Trump making deals with Russia, and she was trying to “protect” it?

This is what the media have been trying to find out all along- are they jumping past the PROVE IT phase and just accepting this woman’s word that there WAS KNOWN collusion?

After months of trying to prove collusion they are not jumping all over THAT aspect of her story?

I don’t believe there is any, I think this woman is making up an un-provable story that gets her in absolutely NO legal trouble, because it is all made up.

And the media are going to use her STORY as ‘proof’ it happened.

Exactly. This raises so many questions. It is infuriating, and she so proudly and boldly proclaiming all of that to Mika on MSNBC with the moniker “BREAKING NEWS”. It is all just too much.

That's a good point. Think of the context. That interview took place on March 2nd -- when the motivation was to tie Trump to the Russians. Fast-forward a few weeks, and now the motivation is to whitewash any mention of the surveillance that these dingbats insisted was going on.

There's no reason to believe anything these people say -- even if we think it works in our favor. Politics is the art of propaganda and outright bullish!t.

I googled her name under the “news” section.

Only conservative sites and an Israeli newspaper have touched it.

Looks to be embargoed.

Mainstream Media sits on Evelyn Farkas story hoping their suppression will make it go away

Includes Google list.

Past administrations go out and hire people that are not competent for the job, and in some ways...might be mentality unstable. I suspect this gal will be found to be a nutcase.

If all of this is true...a lot of people will cut off access to her, and her job potential for the future is zero.

Spicer should compliment MSNBC for this nice little nugget of journalism at the press conference today and see what happens.

If you’re right, she’d better be on her guard, lest she get the Vince Foster treatment....

There sure is a lot of "I" and "we" in that spout to Mika though. I tend to think it is someone who became comfortable in the interview and truly "spilled the beans". It shows collusion between the Hillary campaign, who Farkas was advising, and the Obama administration.

She is unattached to reality and completely convinced of her importance and what she has to reveal to Mika and the American people, for sure.
