Tucker BOMBSHELL: Podesta Group Is In Mueller’s ‘Crosshairs’ Over Russian Influence
Daily Caller ^ | 10-24-17 | Justin Caruso

Posted on 10/24/2017 6:06:03 PM PDT by bigbob

Fox News’ Tucker Carlson reported Tuesday night explosive details about the scope of special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into Russian influence in the United States, which may be putting the Podesta Group in Mueller’s “crosshairs.”

Carlson said in his opening segment that, according to a source Mueller is looking into the Podesta Group, a lobbying firm with close ties to Hillary Clinton, over spreading Russian influence in the United States during Barack Obama’s presidency.

Carlson said, “The central effort to extend Russian influence was focused on the executive branch, the Obama administration. The vehicle through which [Paul] Manafort worked for the Russians was a shell group called the European Centre for a Modern Ukraine. The group was supposedly based in Belgium but had no offices there. It had only two employees, both based in Ukraine.

“Their telephone number in Brussels rang in Kiev. It was a sham, yet it had a presence in Washington. The European Centre for a Modern Ukraine was a major client of the Podesta Group. Why did the Russians choose the Podesta Group? Because both Podestas were close to the Clintons, and Hillary was then Secretary of State. She could get things done for the Podestas’ Russian clients. It was influence peddling, the most obvious kind,” he continued.

The Podesta Group has close ties with Hillary Clinton.

all depends on what he found on those computers and if they were not already given the Clinton bleach bit wipey

Comey was in Los Angeles when he was fired,,,it was a closely kept secret...otherwise he would't have gone

Was reported he thought it was a joke when he saw it on TV....but his badge, cell phone were confiscated...then he knew.

When FBI Director James Comey first learned that he was fired on Tuesday afternoon, he thought it was a 'fairly funny prank.'

Comey was speaking to a group of FBI employees in Los Angeles when he saw the news that he had been terminated being played on a TV in the background, according to the New York Times.

He reportedly even laughed at the news before staff asked him to step into another room.

One of the likely motivation’s for what appears to be Mueller getting into the Podesta’s linkage to the Russians, is to create illusion - to dissuage Congress and or the JD to NOT APPOINT a true Special/Independent Counsel !

There are many reasons for this illusion, not the least of which would be Mueller himself being indicted for his ACTUAL ROLL in the cover up of “Pay for Play” with our national security involving Uranium One, the illegal smuggling of processed uranium out of the US, and the pay back to the Clintons to the tune of at least $145,000,000 dollars.

Additionally, the illegal and illicit server scandal involving TS/SCI\SAP classified info on private servers was going on full bore during all of this as well!

As well, remember Obama’s statement to Russian President Medvedev...

It is possible and even likely Obama’s statement caught on hot mic, telling Medvedev he (Obama) would have more flexibility after the election, was itself involved with the treasoness Uranium One deal one way or another, if not other illegal weapons technology transfer.

Think Skolkovo. The money, efforts, and tech transfer, involved with Skolkovo make the illegal Uranium One scandal pail in comparison. Even while no one is speaking of it.

Skolkovo involved a massive transfer of dual purpose technology and cooperation at the highest levels! This included cooperation with the agencies tasked with our cyber security!


The players are slightly different, but these illegal and truly treasoness activities are very much like what happened between President Clinton and China!

With China there were many millions of dollars which found there way into the Clinton/Gore Campaigns, and in exchange, US contractors were forced to illegally turn over straight up Nuclear Weapons technology and with hardware and software get Chinese satellites into space. Additionally, Clinton gave administrative control of the Panama Canal to a Chinese Army front company named Hutchinson Wampoa.

These things really happened, and they got away with it!

Partial investigations were shut down. Some involved in the investigations were never seen or heard from again.


Our freedom, country, and system of justice cannot survive these people getting away with this much longer.

Just think if they get away with all of the anti-American activity again!

I read somewhere a month ago the theory that Manafort was sent to the Trump campaign by Dems, to insert Russian influence on the Trump campaign. He supposedly tried repeatedly set up a Trump meeting with the Russian embassy people and the upper levels of the campaign nixed the idea. He also supposedly had something to do with the meeting with the Russian lawyer.

I do not now if the story is true but it would make this story make sense.

Er, I wrote this up-—all but the informant YESTERDAY. It was reprinted here.

Ol Tuck might give me credit. As we say in the profession, at least a footnote.

No. It will come out Mabafort is/was working for Mulehead who in turn was working for Trump.

As I said all along.

Yes, one of several reasons l am not getting excited about this. Mueller is a Rat let’s not forget that.

The ONLY play the RATS have left is for Mueller to say an investigation was done and their will be no prosecution.

Mueller drafted the conclusion several months ago.

“...raid on Manafort’s house...”

That’s what I thought of the first thing when this news broke. Now the early morning raid makes sense and before it did not.

Trump knows who has his back.

Pictured: Manafort, Stone, and Atwater (passed away, 1991).

Google them, if you don't know who they are (LS I know you know who they are). Let's just say all RNC and the pic is ~ 45 years old.

FReegards!

So Hillary colluded with the Russians to interfere with our elections. Can’t wait for the media to wake up to that one, their world is about ready to collapse.
