Fusion GPS researcher (Ohr) admits she would turn down a request to do oppo research on Hillary
Washington Times ^ | 3/30/19 | Rowan Scarborough

Posted on 03/31/2019 9:39:56 AM PDT by Libloather

A key anti-Trump researcher for dossier orchestrator Fusion GPS told Congress she would shy away from conducting similar Russia research into Hillary Clinton, according to an interview transcript.

“Because I favored Hillary Clinton as a presidential candidate,” Nellie Ohr testified in October before a special House Judiciary-Oversight task force.

Ms. Ohr is the wife of Bruce Ohr, a former associate deputy attorney general. He turned out to be the messenger to the FBI for ex-British spy Christopher Steele, who wrote the dossier, and Fusion, which paid Mr. Steele with money from the Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee.

[“I would probably have been less comfortable doing opposition research that would have gone against Hillary Clinton,”]

I’ll bet.

I am skeptical too. My thinking is to setup meeting locations. This could done merely by going on the air with a call sign at a particular time and giving a radio check.

I was thinking info but I think you’re closer to being correct than I. The meet to exchange info face-to-face. Or a drop of some sort.

Yeah, she’s all about “civil volunteering”. That’s rich.

SHE LIED UNDER OATH!
FCC public records show she was licensed 5/23/2016. The test for the Technician Class license had 35 multiple choice questions. Passing requires correct answers on 26.

That is what I thought but was to lazy to double check. Thanks.

Fusion ran the same info against McCain in 2007. It didn’t get off the ground.

In 2016, Obama was the one who pushed the Hillary dossier scam.

In 2007, Bush was President, he would NEVER have pushed the FBI and other alphabet agencies to frame McCain. Watergate showed us to get a coordinated criminal conspiracy going, it takes POTUS to lead the way.

No one will be arrested until Obama's actions start appearing in the investigations as they begin to investigate the investigators. When that happens, the criminal left like Adam Schiff and Pelosi will begin crying on TV interviews.

I would like to know what type of radio she purchased and from the exact source.

John McCain’s POTUS campaign honcho, Steve Schmidt, is the Control Operator of three Digital Mobile Radio (DMR) repeaters in the Northern Virginia area. (per FCC database)

Using DMR, Nellie’s female voice would be converted to a bitstream that could be decoded with a radio with similar settings. However, the radio could be easily reprogrammed to make the bitstream (transmitted in modulated analog) undecodable by an amateur operator. Or, the repeater could catch her weak 5 watt signal and then broadcast out (at upto 1500 watts with a high tower and high gain antenna) a digital signal that had been deeply encrypted.

However, one of the Q drops indicated that her ham radio communications had been intercepted by the good guys. It would be very easy for a three letter agency to crack the digital code, especially if they caught her weak signal before it had been encrypted by the repeater.

Q So your obtaining of a radio, and your taking the class, and your sitting for the exam and ultimately passing and receiving the license, it had nothing to do with your employment at Fusion GPS?
A It was well before.

The classic tell for lying is the old non-responsive answer to the question. She wasn’t asked when. And lo and behold, her non-responsive claim of “well before” being hired was a complete lie, designed to mislead. She got the license WELL AFTER she joined GPS Fusion.

Suggestion for House and Senate republican leaders: Hire someone to train Congressional nitwits on how to question liars properly, or don’t bother with hearings.

The rule of law and equal justice have been aborted by the democrats.

Now is the time for equal justice. Now is the time for this attempted coup to be flayed wide open for all to see and those who have broken the law to judged in federal court.

ALL of them, no matter when the real and true evidence leads, and yes this does mean Obama and most defiantly Hil LIAR Y.

There is not now and never has been any evidence against President Trump for collusion or conspiracy in violation of any of our laws.

There is a ton of real, true, well supported evidence and direct testimony against the DNC and Hil LIAR Y that indicate many felonies and border on Treason.

It is time for absolute equal justice and the strict rule of law to prevail again. Period.

It is time to shred the lefts two tier justice system and make the rule of law and our constitution whole again.

With nothing coming from the Trump which hunt it is not time to simply walk away from all of the BS attacks and serial lies from the left and the media.

It is time to fix bayonets and march steady through the ranks of the guilty and force constitutional equal justice to prevail. No quarter given.

It is time to call each and everyone of the LIARS, (government employee, government member, and news media), out for who and what they are, every day, every hour, every minute, and at every opportunity.

If the justice system and the rule of law do not work equally for every citizen in our nation, then none of us should be beholding to those rules and standards.

The left better think long and hard about this one.

Thanks Libloather. It's okay though -- she's so ****ing lazy she didn't do any oppo research, letting a Deep State limey jackass make up a bunch of crap for money.

It is too bad the questioners didn’t ask what type of equipment she was using. Maybe they already knew the answer, so didn’t ask and put her in a defensive mode.

Interesting info.

If she was using it for disaster preparedness, then I am the King of Monaco.

There is also a growing movement in amateur radio to send text in a very robust coding scheme that can work in noisy environments.

She could have used a laptop and sent text messages via one of these protocols on VHF or UHF and use a code word book. This is what I would do. 220 MHz is very lightly used and 50 watts can cover the NOVA/DC area and avoid the repeaters. Even is the agencies intercepted the transmission, it could look innocuous, like a vegan recipe exchange.

She could have used a YAGI antenna and vertically polarized the signal, which would minimize the signal to a lurker.

It is not hard to build a tight communications security plan.

A friend of mine tells a story from rural Kansas. Some time back in the 1980’s. He was driving somewhere, out on a lonely road when he encounters this van with what looked like radio direction-finding equipment (antenna).

Just a regular-looking van - like they were looking for something.

Our guess is some sort of drug drop-off in the middle of nowhere and it’s picked up from some random point by someone knowing how to find it.

But that was just our guess all these many years.

Probably the FCC busting pirate broadcasters. Happens more often than most people suspect.

Yeah, IIRC he didn’t remember noticing gov’t plates, but that doesn’t necessarily mean anything.

Or it could be DEA looking for people “looking for packages”.

Hmmm....dunno
