Peter Strzok claim about Russia investigation origins contradicted by Mueller and DOJ inspector general
Washinton Examiner ^ | September 6, 2020 | Jerry Dunleavy

Fired FBI special agent Peter Strzok’s latest claims about the events leading to the bureau’s opening of the Trump-Russia investigation are contradicted by the timelines presented in reports by special counsel Robert Mueller and DOJ Inspector General Michael Horowitz.

In a new interview ahead of the release of his book, Strzok claimed that Australian diplomat Alexander Downer was spurred to inform the U.S. government about a May 2016 conversation he had in a London wine bar with George Papadopoulos, in which the Trump campaign associate mentioned that Russia might have dirt on former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, after hearing Donald Trump’s controversial July 2016 comment: “Russia, if you’re listening, I hope you’re able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing.” But Mueller and Horowitz concluded that Australia informed the United States of this conversation on July 26, 2016, which is one day before Trump’s press conference comments about Russia.

"Papadopoulos told them that somebody on the Trump campaign had received an offer that said the Russians had material that would be damaging to Hillary Clinton and to Obama, and they offered to coordinate the release of that information in a way that would help the Trump campaign," Strzok told CBS's Sunday Morning....

P-doc was set up. Downer was liquoring him up and leading him on. I read Papadopolous’ testimony and found it very believable. Strozk is just repeating the cover story.

Which is what I was alluding to when I pointed to P-Doc's testimony. On the other end of the conversation, I believe Downer was looking for it and elicitied it, or something close to it, from P-Doc.

Peter Strzok is a weasel! He has no scruples at all and not much intelligemce either. What a zero! He is now making a claim that counters all of the facts that everyone already knows.

Liars lie. All of them. We can assume at this point that it is all lies. Mueller, Strzok, Downer all of them.

We don't need to sort out right from wrong. They started lying and they are all wrong.

This is total Bullshit.

Alexander Downer is being paid by China - and was - for one of the Largest Telecom companies in the World. Downer also raised money for Hillary and is besties with John and Tony Podesta.

And Papadopolous never had anything to do with Russia - nothing. He’s never been there before in his life. When the FBi threatened him, they told him they knew he was working for Israel.

These are easy Lies to shoot down.

Why didn’t Hillary’s words - wiped the Server with a cloth - lead to more investigations and deeper trouble?

Hillary even said she wasn’t even being Investigated, it was just a review.
