Inside the Clinton dossier and the con behind the Russiagate scandal
New York Post ^

Posted on 11/09/2021 4:29:41 AM PST by outpostinmass2

The nation argued for five years over the infamous Steele dossier, the document on which the FBI relied to investigate Donald Trump’s 2016 campaign. It should have been called the Clinton dossier.

Special counsel John Durham this week obtained an indictment of Igor Danchenko, a Russian who provided information for the dossier. Danchenko is charged with lying to the FBI, but the bigger story of the indictment is Democrats’ central role in every aspect of the dossier and the FBI investigation. Dolan has long been in Clinton circles, having served seven years as head of the Democratic Governors Association and state chairman of Bill Clinton’s 1992 and 1996 presidential campaigns. President Clinton appointed him to a State Department advisory commission, and the indictment notes he was an active “volunteer” on Hillary Clinton’s 2016 campaign. He also had far more ties to Russians than anyone in Trump’s circle, having for eight years helped handle “global public relations for the Russian government” and throughout 2016 interacted frequently with senior Russian officials and Russian Embassy staff.

The FBI knew all a long that Dolan, while working for the Clinton campaign, was the source for the Steele Dossier. They knew this at least in early 2017 and most likely back in mid 2016. Dolan was obviously wire tapped by the FBI so the only questions are when and who else he was talking to?

So the FBI were either (a) willing accomplices or (b) incompetent boobs

I’m going with Option (c), “all of the above”

Remember Hillary had the FBI files in her possession back in 1993.

Supposedly those files were on high-ranking Republicans and the FBI took no action against the Clintons for having them, meaning the FBI was already in the Clinton’s pocket when they took office in 1992.

The Clintons have a full time job with the rehabilitation of their image. The entire (D) party has the same problem, and the scale and scope of it is a thousand times greater. It shouldn’t be too difficult to exploit this weakness of theirs, especially if they regard it as being one of their strengths, and it does seem as though they are stupid enough to believe that.

Clintons/Democrat/Leftists are zealots and have an absolute conviction that they are above the law, and act out in reprehensible ways.

In Greek tragedy, excessive pride or defiance, is considered a curse which leads to harm or ruin.....and inflicts retribution or vengeance upon the actor.

In my frame of reference, I see the disdain for their opposites as little more than a virulent hatred that consumes them and blindsides them to reality.

They still do not comprehend why they lost Va and all the rest.......which is actually quite pathetic.

Biden is the pluspefect example.

The corrupt career politician actually thinks he’s legit. One vision of his lunacy was him stepping off a plane at a campaign venue and making a show of waving to crowds THAT WERE NOT THERE.

Not to mention Bidens looney delusions about his crackhead son, Hunter.....known in mob circles as an “earner.”

Charles Dolan Jr., a PR executive who cut his teeth in Democratic politics, working for the Clintons, provided key anti-Trump information, according to the special counsel probing the Russia investigation.....

<><>was a State Department advisory board during the Clinton administration
<><>served as a state chairman for President Bill Clinton’s 1992 and 1996 campaigns

<><>attended a reception for Clinton in July 2016

According to the indictment, a month after he informed a Russian associate that he would be attending a reception for Clinton in July 2016, the associate told a contact in Russia that Dolan would “take me off to the State Department [to handle] issues of the former USSR.” a reception for Clinton in July 2016, the associate told a contact in Russia that Dolan would “take me off to the State Department [to handle] issues of the former USSR.”

The only redemption for this colossal error, waste of millions, and ruination of a President, would be justice, meaning Hillary gets punished.

One could hope that the queen bee of the dossier, Hillary, will be indicted, but that is too much to hope for. However, the Clintons have lost their influence and their Foundation money machine is done when they have no influence to sell. I guess I will have to be satisfied to just see the Clintons fade away.

It now seems clear that Durham, well aware of the forces facing him, intends to produce a product that is absolutely, and legally, above reproach. He must recall how the media tried to destroy Starr and others prosecuting the Clinton disgrace, and how the media helped.

Freepers knew this was a paid smear job from day one. None of this is any surprise except to the people who willingly fell for the lie in the Lying Media.

“One could hope that the queen bee of the dossier, Hillary, will be indicted...”

THAT will not happen, UNLESS there arises another FBI Chief — during the Clinton’s lives — who gives a rat’s ass that The Bureau’s reputation is in the toilet.

The FBI has enough dirt on that Demonic Duo to put both of them in front of a firing squad. Using what they know to make exactly that happen would go light years toward rehabbing The Bureau’s expiried reputation.

Gowdy has said on Fox that the GOP knew the FBI was lying in 2017. Nobody in the swamp did anything because they all wanted to use the Russia hoax to hamstring President Trump and therefore the MAGA agenda.

This one isn’t complicated. Follow the money. Wall Street hates MAGA. Wall Streets owns the GOP and Dems. They all knew the Russia stuff was garbage but carried on for years.
