U.S. Attorney John Durham has reportedly opened a new front in his investigation into the origins of the Trump-Russia probe.
According to a report, Durham is seeking grand jury testimony from computer scientists behind an allegation that Donald Trumps real estate company had a secret communications channel with Alfa Bank.
The Alfa-Trump theory was first floated in October 2016, but was debunked in the Justice Department inspector generals report on the FBIs investigation of the Trump campaign.
Durham is also reportedly seeking the testimony of Daniel Jones, a former Senate Intelligence Committee investigator who partnered with Fusion GPS and Christopher Steele in 2017.
The U.S. attorney investigating the origins of the Trump-Russia probe is seeking grand jury testimony from a group of computer scientists behind a since-debunked allegation that Donald Trumps real estate company had covert computer contacts with a Russian bank, according to a report.
The New Yorker reports that John Durham, the U.S. attorney for Connecticut, has contacted the scientists in recent weeks seeking their testimony.
According to the magazine, investigators have told potential witnesses they are investigating whether two pseudonymous computer experts gave false information to the U.S. government regarding a covert communications channel between the Russian bank, Alfa Bank, and the Trump Organization.
Hillary Clinton emphasized the allegation of a possible link between Trump and Alfa Bank when it appeared in the press days before the 2016 election.
Durhams use of a grand jury to investigate the allegations about Alfa Bank indicates a new front in his sprawling probe.

Thank you, that’s helpful!
Not long now. Light to darkness. blah blah
Just like, Lindsey said, look we can hold hearings on Hunter and Joe Biden Ukraine/ China later, his counterparts were holding off thinking, like they did with Hillary, that Biden will Win.
John Durham will retire a VERY RICH swamper.......
Looks like Durham is trying to find other avenues to slow the investigation to a crawl. It doesn’t take weeks to get a witness before a Grand Jury.
I just made a solemn oath to myself: henceforth I will not click on any thread having anything to do with Barr or Durham. They have both proved to be deep state hacks who are not interested in exposing anybody.
My blood pressure will thank me I’m sure.
Yeah, ok thanks. That story was poorly written if you ask me. It didn’t seem very clear on the first read.
Sure. Holding my breath.
This close to the most important election of our lifetime, perhaps even in our country’s history, I REFUSE TO BELIEVE ANYTHING FROM THE MEDIA.
It might result in a report.
It might even be a strongly worded report.
It’s confusing but correct...”bogus” would have been better. The fake allegation was what was debunked, not that he’s investigating a “debunked” issue.
They simply can’t dig into the crimes of the Kenyanesian Usurpation without risking that the entire thing unravels and exposes EVERYONE responsible for violating the Constitution.
The only person I am sure is not complicit in DC is President Trump.
About 5 lines in, it is revealed that the New Yorker is the source. So the false anti-Trump spin is no accident.
Sounds to me like Durham is linking the early Trump-Alfa Bank server narrative to specific operatives, then to squeeze out who put them up to creating that claim, and how they coordinated with Hillary Clinton. When the Italian government canned a group of their intelligence operatives about a year ago (?), it was said that they had been involved in a plot to have crooks in the US plant evidence to make it look like Trump was somehow communicating with Russians via a server in Trump Tower somehow connected to Alfa Bank. I smell Brennan.
I think he is really using a “Magic 8 Ball”
“Durham is also reportedly seeking the testimony of Daniel Jones, a former Senate Intelligence Committee investigator who partnered with Fusion GPS and Christopher Steele in 2017. “
The closer they get to Fusion GPS (Information Operations) the closer they get to the heart of the matter. Fusion is likely a CIA enterprise.
Fusion’s relationship to the US government is the first set of documents POTUS should demand be declassified and published.
And it would set DC on fire.
More pisspoor writing by a conservative. "Debunked" is what the Democrats call an issue they don't want to deal with. It has long since stopped meaning disproven or refuted with evidence or exposed for a fraud.
“Tom Fitton saw the Docs and said Durhams prosecutors arent interested and are simply running out the Clock.”
Do you have a source for that?
