Absolutely! It's the very definition of a con man. Someone who first gains your trust, preferably over a period of time, then sticks it to you at an opportune moment. It's basically what these FR Putinistas do here on a daily basis, posting all sorts of other unrelated stories that most people here would appreciate. It's a way for them to gain credibility, at least in the eyes of the unsuspecting.
I agree. ETL, your posting of pix and articles that have already been posted (in some cases several times) are tiresome and waste bandwidth.
I agree with grania: “wake me up when there are photos of Coup leaders hauled away in handcuffs.” Well said.
So many freaking morons out there, on both sides, left and right.
An investigation by SaraACarter.com reveals that the documents and information Lovinger stumbled on and other documents obtained by this news site, raise troubling questions about Halper, who was believed to have worked with the CIA and part of the matrix of players in the bureaus CrossFire Hurricane investigation into Trumps 2016 presidential campaign.
Halper, who assisted the FBI in the Russia investigation, appears to also have significant ties to the Russian government, as well as sources connected directly to President Vladimir Putin.
Halper did not respond to requests for comment.

To repeat...
LOL! Tell us what you REALLY think of him, Svetlana.
From what I can piece together, she’s got the name right.
Thank you for that!
“new lawsuit calls Halper a ratf*cker in its pleadings”
I just hope Sean Hannity and others get it straight and relays it to their TV and radio audiences in full proper detail. Same for all the other non-lefty TV, radio and print commentators...
Thanks again to FReeper HollyB for posting this on another recent thread of mine.
From Newsweek, Feb 12, 2019...
Americans who worry about Russia election interference should stop focusing on such trivialities and instead realize that the idea that they have a choice over how they are governed is a mere illusion, Vladislav Surkov, an adviser to Russian President Vladimir Putin, wrote in an op-ed published this week.
The illusion of choice is the most important illusion, the main trick of Western democracy especially .
The rejection of this illusion in favor of the reality that everything is predestined will allow society to reflect first on our vision of democratic development, Surkov wrote.
Foreign politicians talk about Russias interference in elections and referendums around the world.
In fact, the matter is even more serious: Russia interferes in your brains, we change your conscience, and there is nothing you can do about it.
Election interference is not the main thing Americans should be worried about, said an adviser to the Russian president.
In his op-ed for the Russian publication Nezavisimaya Gazeta, or Independent Newspaper, Surkov also laid out Putins vision of returning Russia to its rightful role as a global superpower and exporting Putinism as an ideology to be adopted around the world.
After having fallen from the USSR to the Russian Federation, Russia stopped collapsing and began to recover and return to its natural and only possible state as a large nation that is on the rise, he wrote.
The great role assigned to our country in the history of the world does not allow us to leave the stage or keep silent among the crowd .
It does not promise peace .
Putins great political machine is only gaining momentum and gearing up for a long, difficult, and interesting job, Surkov continued.
He then went on to describe Putin as the founder of modern Russia, similar to the Turkish leader Mustafa Kemal Ataturk or Frances Charles de Gaulle.
Putinism is the ideology of the future, he wrote.
The political system created in Russia is suitable not only for the future of local areas, it clearly has significant export potential. ...

Now check out this below from conservative (patriot) commentator Dan Bongino, May 17, 2019...
"Thanks to recently released notes from an interview the State Departments Kathleen Kavalec had with dossier author Christopher Steele, a possible bombshell connection between Halper and the dossier has been uncovered.
As discussed earlier in the week on the podcast, those notes also demonstrate Steele failing to keep his story straight between the State Department and FBI, proving how unreliable he is.
In Kavalecs handwritten notes from their interview she makes note of two of Steeles dossier sources; Trubnikov and Surkov.
Surkov is Vladislav Surkov, an aide of Vladimir Putin who is on the U.S.s list of sanctioned individuals, and Trubnikov is Vyacheslav Trubnikov, who is currently the First Deputy of Foreign Minister of Russia and formally served as the Director of Foreign Intelligence Service.
Interestingly, Trubnikov is an associate of Halper.
