Russia 'Absolutely' Tried to Infiltrate Mar-a-Lago: Former FBI Official
Newsweek ^ | 8/28/22 | Xander Landen

Posted on 08/28/2022 5:23:08 PM PDT by UMCRevMom@aol.com

Former FBI official Peter Strzok said in an interview that foreign intelligence services in countries, including Russia, have been "absolutely" interested in gaining access to former President Donald Trump's Florida property, Mar-a-Lago.

Strzok's comments come after the FBI raided the property earlier this month as part of an investigation into whether Trump potentially mishandled classified information.

During his interview, Katie Phang asked Strzok if he believes it's a possibility that the Russians would have been interested and "possibly tried to infiltrate" Mar-a-Lago.

"Well Katie, absolutely the Russians, but not just the Russians, any competent foreign intelligence service, whether that's those belonging to China, those belonging to Iran, to Cuba, certainly including Russia, are all...interested in gaining access to Mar-a-Lago," Strzok responded.

Strzok was fired from the FBI after text messages from 2016 were released revealing anti-Trump remarks between himself and FBI lawyer Lisa Page. He has remained a critic of the former president, and published a book in 2020 titled Compromised: Counterintelligence and the Threat of Donald J. Trump.

During his interview, Strzok said that foreign intelligence services are "going to have been trying to gain access" to Mar-a-Lago during and after Trump's presidential administration.

"And that's absolutely the sort of thing that the U.S. intelligence community and the FBI in particular are going to concerned about what they need to do to mitigate any sort of damage that might [have] occurred," he added.

During an interview on Friday, veteran Republican political strategist Karl Rove said that Secret Service officials could have been the mole.

The ex-president has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing, and accused the FBI of corruption, although the federal agency is currently led by Director Christopher Wray, whom Trump nominated to the position. The former president also said that the FBI search was targeting him and his family.

I stand corrected. No wonder not a one of them will go to Ukraine to fight for their beloved Zelensky, Soros, Schwab and other globalist masters. They’re too fat to be able to get up from their chairs in their mamas basements. But they get their $5 a day to spam leftist globalist warmongering propaganda on Conservative websites, to use towards their World of Warcraft accounts.

I’d say it is doubtful, but; it is possible. One of our greatest generals lived past 100. He died earlier this year.
