“There’s No Question It’s A Fraud”: Former Trump Attorney Says Mueller “Badly Misled” White House, Schiff Is “Nancy’s Liar”
Nation And State ^ | 5-7-2020

Former Trump attorney John Dowd says it’s “staggering” that former Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s “so-called Dream Team would put on such a fraud,” after the Wednesday release of the investigation’s “scope memo” revealed that Mueller was tasked with investigating accusations from Clinton-funded operative Christopher Steele which the DOJ already knew were debunked.

“In the last few days, I have been going back through my files and we were badly misled by Mueller and his senior people, particularly in the meetings that we had,” Dowd told Fox News Radio host Brian Kilmeade on Thursday.

The scope memo also revealed that Mueller’s authority went significantly beyond what was previously known – including “allegations that Carter Page committed a crime or crimes by colluding with Russian government officials with respect to the Russian government’s efforts to interfere with the 2016 election for President of the United States, in violation of United States law,” yet as John Solomon of Just The News noted on Wednesday – the FBI had already:

•fired Steele as an informant for leaking;
•interviewed Steele’s sub-source, who disputed information attributed to him;
•ascertained that allegations Steele had given the FBI specifically about Page were inaccurate and likely came from Russian intelligence sources as disinformation;
•been informed repeatedly by the CIA that Page was not a Russian stooge but, rather, a cooperating intelligence asset for the United States government.

“There’s no question it’s a fraud … I think the whole report is just nonsense and it’s staggering that the so-called ‘Dream Team’ would put on such a fraud,” Dowd said, according to Fox News.

Dowd also discussed Connecticut U.S. Attorney John Durham’s investigation into the origins of the Russia probe, which is expected to be wrapped up by the end of the summer.

It was all “fake but accurate” because “Trump is Hitler”.

If Dowd had been Learking or FReeping FR, he would have known this years ago.

Just imagine if Mrs Clinton hadn’t blown her own rigged election- none of this would have come out. What a freaking loser. She even had Russian help and still came up short.

Geeze they keep pushing back when Durham is to be finished. ...one could easily think that it will never get finished. What the heck is so time consuming?

>> Trump is lucky he survived Dowd. Slow learner, was he.

Is it not possible Dowd knew, and let the part play itself out?

I am not holding my breath, but sure would be nice and justice would be served if and when some of these crooks would go to jail. Not only that, but the public may regain some trust in our government, which at this time is pretty slim.

Rosenstein did this. What a traitor. Anyone still thinking he is, or was, a White Hat, is an idiot. And a Useful Idiot at that. Rosenstein hurt Trump, just like “Trust Sessions!”

“He knew, he is just playing dumb.”

************************************************************

No. No one knew. Remember Rush always using the “believed” line when talking about different players for the last 3 years. The media “believed” Trump was a Russian asset. Democrats “believed” Trump was a Russian asset. No one knew, knew. No one.

My God. To suggest they “knew” , while acting like they “believed”, would be to suggest dishonesty and lack of integrity among the Dems/MSM. Horror of horrors. /s

It was an Obama operation, but Obama isn’t competent enough to run a popcorn stand.

And Mueller kept telling Trump that he was not a target when he was always the real target.

Sessions has ZERO integrity remaining after all this is revealed to have taken place under his watch....recusal or not.

Q-Anon has the same ZERO credibility and was just stalling in hopes of keeping all this criminality under wraps.

Trust me, this is just the tip of the iceberg with regard to the criminality that took place under the Obama and Sessions DOJ.

That makes Sessions no better than Holder, Lynch or Yates.

‘Rosenstein did this. What a traitor’

It was Rosenstein, let us not forget, who volunteered to go into the WH wearing a bug, to spy on the President in order to have him removed from office. If that doesn’t tell you what the main “goal” was in this coup d’etat , what will?
