Attorney General Bill Barr, in an exclusive interview with Fox News, revealed that the recently announced review of the origins of the Russia probe will focus in part on a controversial briefing that intelligence officials gave President Trump shortly before he took office in 2017.
Barr told Fox News’ Bill Hemmer in the interview aired Friday that one portion of the review -- which he has tapped U.S. Attorney John Durham to lead -- would cover the time period between Election Day and Inauguration Day, saying “some very strange developments” took place during that time.
Barr specifically was referring to the early January 2017 briefing intelligence officials gave then-president-elect Trump at Trump Tower, and “the leaking of information subsequent to that meeting.” At that meeting, Trump was briefed by intelligence and law enforcement officials on Russian election meddling -- and was also informed by former FBI Director James Comey about the now-infamous anti-Trump dossier which included salacious allegations against him. Details later leaked to the press.

When is this interview running or has it been aired? I’ve looked ‘everywhere’ to find out but nothing is ‘out there’.
There is more to it than that. I want to know who all the plants were.
Yes, and I believe Barr will expose it all.
Late in the interview, Barr disclosed that there are several parallel investigations that he has already started, and are underway.
Very strange developments.
Thank you. I appreciate it!
They could have investigated the onset or the beginnings of the investigation, but had to pick a name that’s hard for the President to pronounce.
Maybe DJT should start wearing a Cullpepper pin. “Don’t Tread On Me”

I believe the origins of this abuse of power can be found in the aftermath of 9/11. The Intelligence Community was tasked with gathering foreign and domestic communications by potential terrorists and mega-data key word identification. This extremely powerful tool was authorized by Congress but, since power corrupts, it was weaponized for political purposes by the Obama Administration to be used against his political opponents for the benefit of the Democratic Party and, in this case, HRC the first woman President following the first Black President. Furthermore, it would be used against the 2016 Republican nominee no matter who it was. But as the campaign progressed and Trump brashly attacked HRC, especially for her intelligence security gaffes that Comey gave her a pass on,Trump was too close so the pre-planned “insurance policy” was deployed. When Trump won it caught the IC by surprise since all of the polling indicated a HRC blowout so the opposition research/dirty tricks election campaign morphed into the CYA op that continues to this day. But again, this capability was to be employed against any Republican candidate because for liberal Democrats the ends justify the means.
Hopefully some of the presstitutes will get thrown in jail too.
Focusing on the brief they gave trump.
- Then Bakker says they didn’t want it to look like they were blackmailing him like Hoover did people.
- Means they were trying to blackmail trump with the dossier.
- Then Comey gets fired.
Remember when they say something it usually is the exact opposite.
For people who can’t fill in the blanks.
The plan was for Comey to tell Trump about the dossier and suggest that he can make it go away or hang it around Trump’s neck if Trump doesn’t playball with the deep state.
Trump then says FU by firing Comey. Comey fires back by getting a special prosecutor appointed.
Trump waits it out...now he’s firing back.
“...he was surprised to discover no-one had valid answers to his initial inquiry.”
Does that mean he has been questioning the coup plotters himself?
Great summaries, thanks.
I tune out the media drama and fake news, but wait for clear thought.
It is shocking that Comey would brazenly blackmail the US President. But then again, three top officials were all Communist: Obama, Brennen & Comey; so a coup follows.
The Russians WANTED HILLIARY!! PERIOD! They had EVERYTHING on her and knew she could be manipulated!
Thus far not a moment of jail time for Clinton or her conspirators?????
Criminals.
Yeah, we know all that, blah, blah, blah. There are no accompanying photos of coup leaders being hauled away in handcuffs. Why the heck is Barr telling the traitors what to guard against?
Maybe he should read The First Conspiracy. Traitors who were part of George Washington's special security guards were days away from assassinating him.
