Five Clues Don Jr.’s Trump Tower Meeting Was Set Up as Dem Dirty Trick
Breitbart ^ | 27 Jul 18 | Aaron Klein

Posted on 07/27/2018 11:35:52 AM PDT by xzins

1 – Rob Goldstone, the English publicist and music manager, admitted that when he wrote Donald Trump Jr. to set up the meeting with a Russian attorney at Trump Tower he used deliberately hyperbolic language to ensure that the meeting took place. Goldstone further said that he believes the meeting was a “bait and switch” by a Russian lobbyist seeking a meeting on another matter by misleadingly claiming to be bringing the Trump campaign dirt on Hillary Clinton.

2 – All participants in the meeting who have spoken publicly say no Russian dirt on Hillary Clinton was discussed.

3 – Two Russians at the meeting evidenced a larger relationship with Fusion GPS and the controversial firm’s co-founder Glenn Simpson. The Russia collusion conspiracy theory was sparked by the discredited dossier produced by Fusion GPS, which was paid for its anti-Trump work by Trump’s primary political opponents, namely Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign and the Democratic National Committee (DNC) via the Perkins Coie law firm.

4 – A key participant at the Trump Tower meeting said that he “knows” Hillary Clinton and has a personal relationship with her that dates back to the late-1990s. Besides describing a direct connection to Clinton, Russian-born Washington lobbyist Rinat Akhmetshin also testified that he “knew some people who worked on” Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign. Akhmetshin further revealed that the same day of the Trump Tower meeting he met with a Clinton associate after the confab and possibly also just before.

5 – Akhmetshin admits to being present at the same security conference in Canada where Sen. John McCain was reportedly first informed about the anti-Trump dossier. Akhmetshin says he might have spoken to McCain and the senator’s assistant David J. Kramer at the Halifax International Security Forum in 2016.

Sure looks like it.

IRRC, the Russian broad had to get special permission to enter the US.....and Obama via whatever entity, gave it to her.

Wasn’t the Russian woman brought into the country specifically by the Obama Administration and met with them just weeks before the Don Jr. Meeting? At least that is what I remember being reported.. We have known it was a setup from the beginning!

I read on Conservative Tree House that she or her companion met with the dems before her meeting and then after the meeting.

Veselnitskaya (or whatever her name is) met with Glenn Simpson (Fusion GPS) both right before and immediately after she met with Trump Jr. So yes, definitely fishy.

And worse, because they used and abused their government powers (through pResident Obama) to use his DOJ and Intel (cough, cough) agencies to spy on and try to frame Trump before the election, during the transition, after the inauguration and still ongoing today via Mueller, et al.

Irrelevant. All that matters is if President Trump said anything about the meeting that can be portrayed as false.

And Mueller’s all-Dem team of snipers can’t see anything but PDJT in their cross-hairs, so none of this will matter to them.

Why doesn’t President Trump call a press conference and lay out all the exculpatory evidence (and the damning stuff against his enemies) and demand that Mueller give each and every item a thorough review? Upload it all to the white house website for everyone to be able to see for themselves.

Then Sarah Huckabee Sanders can lead with that info at the next white house press corps event and ask all the assembled media clowns if they’ve personally gone through all the evidence. Call them out. Put them on the spot.

I wonder if this is discussed in Greg Jarrett's new book. He is amazingly accurate in his assessments.

The BIGGER question is, ARE OBAMA AND HIS MINIONS RUSSIAN AGENTS? SURE LOOKS LIKE IT. I HAVE NO DOUBT JOHN BRENNAN IS INDEED A RUSSIAN AGENT.

The Russian attorney was never interviewed by Mueller because Mueller KNOWS she was an agent of the Obama administration, allowed into the U.S. by Obama for the sole purpose of setting Trump up for their BOGUS collusion narrative.

Simpson met with the Russian lawyer before and after the meeting on the same day.

there is going to be a lot of rats shaken out of the Buzzfeed Lawsuit filed by the Russian.

Now that Fusion GPS bad actors are forced to answer question thru depositions we will find there were more Rats involved in Setting up Trump that are in the NY Sewer system. All leading right back to Bronco Bama/Jarrett and Hillary.

Correct.. Why this isn’t reported on Fox as a huge issue of is beyond me. They miss a lot of the important details.

The Russian lawyer’s translator was a commonly used contract employee of.... the US State Department.

The Russian lawyer met with Fusion GPS the day before and the day after the Trump Jr. tower meeting.

The Russian lawyer was banned from travel into the US until Lynch and Bharara approved it.

The Russian lawyer listed Fusion GPS as her employer on her visa application.

This is the kind of info that sinks this attack from the libs.

Beyond that, Trump, Jr., didn’t buy it. He ignored it, didn’t do anything with it.

So, not conspiring is (so far) still not a crime in the USA.

The Russian lawyer met with Fusion GPS the day before and the day after the Trump Jr. tower meeting.

Fusion GPS official met with Russian operative before and after Trump Jr. sit-down

The co-founder of Fusion GPS, the firm behind the unverified Trump dossier, met with a Russian lawyer before and after a key meeting she had last year with Trump’s son, Fox News has learned. The contacts shed new light on how closely tied the firm was to Russian interests, at a time when it was financing research to discredit then-candidate Donald Trump.

But hours before the Trump Tower meeting on June 9, 2016, Fusion co-founder and ex-Wall Street Journal reporter Glenn Simpson was with Veselnitskaya in a Manhattan federal courtroom, a confidential source told Fox News. Court records reviewed by Fox News, email correspondence and published reports corroborate the pair’s presence together. The source told Fox News they also were together after the Trump Tower meeting.

NBC News first reported that Veselnitskaya and Simpson were both at a hearing centered around another Fusion client, Russian oligarch Denis Katsyv. His company, Prevezon Holdings, was sanctioned against doing business in the U.S. for its alleged role in laundering more than $230 million. Fox News obtained audio records from that hearing in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit.

The wrongdoing had been uncovered by Russian lawyer and whistleblower Sergei Magnitsky, who was beaten to death in a Russian prison in 2009 after being arrested for probing Prevezon and other companies with ties to Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Fusion’s Simpson is believed to have been working with Veselnitskaya and Rinat Akhmetshin, a former Soviet counter-intelligence officer turned Russian-American lobbyist, to overturn the sanctions.

Akhmetshin also attended the June 9 Trump Tower meeting, along with about a half-dozen others including Trump Jr., Paul Manafort, Jared Kushner, publicist Rob Goldstone, Natalia's Russian translator Anatoli Samochornov and Ike Kaveladze from a Russian-American real estate agency.
