Current and former officials — apparently so fearful that an FBI informant’s identity and role would be outed by congressional Republicans — confirmed both to the New York Times and the Washington Post in an attempt to offer their own narratives first. Both outlets offered details that readily identify the informant — but do not name him, citing concerns for his safety and warnings from U.S. intelligence officials.
The details, however, match a person described in the Daily Caller as Stefan Halper, a Cambridge professor and longtime Washington, D.C. fixture who worked for three Republican administrations and has links to U.S. and British intelligence.
The Times and Post are the first outlets claiming to have confirmed his identity, and to describe him in such detail as to match the description of Halper.
The accounts also indicate the FBI lied about when they first began surveilling the Trump campaign, or might have done so, without any particular intelligence.
FBI officials have said they began investigating the Trump administration on July 31, 2016, after stolen Democratic National Committee emails were released on July 22, 2016, prompting Australian officials to come forward with information they received from Trump campaign adviser George Papadopoulos months earlier.
Officials sold this version of events last year to the Times, which wrote on December 31, 2017, in a piece titled “How the Russia Inquiry Began: A Campaign Aide, Drinks and Talk of Political Dirt”:
“…when leaked Democratic emails began appearing online, Australian officials passed the information about Mr. Papadopoulos to their American counterparts, according to four current and former American and foreign officials with direct knowledge of the Australians’ role.”
However — the problem with that account is that the FBI informant had approached Trump campaign adviser Carter Page before that email release on July 22...

Who is Stefan Halper? Take a few minutes and learn about the Deep State’s spy and president handler for decades.
Halper is a super mole/controller of Presidents for the Deep State Elite going back to Presidents Nixon/Ford/Carter/Reagan/The Bushes, Clinton and of course Obama.
Thread by @The_War_Economy: “A BLITZ ON STEFAN HALPER Stefan Halper has been in the news recently as he was the one who reached out to George Papadopoulos in September 2.

Which begs the question: Why is the DOJ/FBI going to such lengths to protect the identity of Halper?
I say it’s because he has told them that if he is outed, he will tell everyone everything he knows.
And they’ll all go to jail together.
Like he should live so long to testify..., really?
Did Halper pay taxes on the $282k he received?
I hate to disparage Grumpy Cat but does anyone else think Clapper is a dead ringer for her?
What a digusting fat traitor.
He should be hanged.
If Grumpy Cat was a Sphynx Cat.
The FBI mole was planted in the Trump campaign before he won the Republican nomination. Were the other Republican candidates deserving of an FBI mole in their campaigns or was Trump the only one not approved by the NWO ruling elite? Reasonable to conclude the rest were/are owned by the NWO pukes as are most in DC.
How can the American people ever ensure that ALL of the DC scoundrels will be held accountable when those who are in charge of upholding our laws are part of and involved in the corruption? Our Founders knew how to deal with this crap.
Excellent question.
It is not so much that they want to preserve his identity, it is that they don’t want you to know what he did. Which was plant evidence and entrap low level members of the Trump campaign so as to justify counterintelligence (spying) on the opposition party during an election.
Trump must order all docs be turned over unredacted acted including the text messages between Stroz and Page.
President Trump is diabolical.
He keeps making these people lie, cheat, steal, make stories up and shoot themselves in the foot.
The can't figure out how is does it but they know he is doing it!
Love me sum Kristina Wong yep yep
It’s Grand Jury time for Stefan Halper.
LOL — uncanny.
