Judicial Watch Finds Documents Showing Fusion GPS Working Directly With Obama's DOJ to Frame Trump
Townhall.com ^ | August 14, 2019 | Katie Pavlich

Government watchdog Judicial Watch has uncovered and released hundreds of documents showing the Obama Justice Department working directly with Fusion GPS, a research firm hired by the Clinton campaign, to frame President Trump. 

The documents show Fusion GPS' Nellie Ohr, who was specifically hired in 2016 to dig up dirt on Trump and his children Ivanka, Don Jr. and Eric, working directly with U.S. Associate Deputy Attorney General Bruce Ohr on a spread sheet linking President Trump to a number of Russian operatives. Nellie and Bruce are married and while Bruce was demoted, he's still working at the Department of Justice in Washington D.C.

"On December 5, 2016, Bruce Ohr emailed himself an Excel spreadsheet, seemingly from his wife Nellie Ohr, titled 'WhosWho19Sept2016.' The spreadsheet purports to show relationship descriptions and 'linkages' between Donald Trump, his family and criminal figures, many of whom were Russians. This list of individuals allegedly 'linked to Trump' include: a Russian involved in a 'gangland killing;' an Uzbek mafia don; a former KGB officer suspected in the murder of Paul Tatum; a Russian who reportedly 'buys up banks and pumps them dry'; a Russian money launderer for Sergei Magnitsky; a Turk accused of shipping oil for ISIS; a couple who lent their name to the Trump Institute, promoting its 'get-rich-quick schemes'; a man who poured him a drink; and others,' Judicial Watch released. "On December 5, 2016, Bruce Ohr emails himself a document titled "Manafort Chronology,' another Nellie Ohr-Fusion GPS document, which details Paul Manafort's travel and interactions with Russians and other officials."

After the documents were passed back and forth between the two, Bruce Ohr gave them to the FBI.

"FBI interview reports from December 5 and December 12, and December 20, 2017, show that Bruce Ohr 'voluntarily' gave these anti-Trump and Manafort materials, created for the Clinton campaign by Fusion GPS, to the FBI," Judicial Watch found.

Additionally, the documents show Ohr forwarding an article to the FBI about impeachment on a crime he essentially set up through his work with Fusion GPS. 

"On February 14, 2017, former-Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for the Bureau of European and Eurasian Affairs, Kathleen Kavalec forwarded Ohr a Huffington Post article touting the Steele Dossier's claim that an alleged deal between Russian oil company Rosneft and Trump supporter Steve Schwarzman constituted a 'high crime of treason worthy of impeachment.' Ohr forwarded the article to the FBI's Washington Field Office the same day," they found.

Judicial Watch obtained the documents through a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit.

"These documents show a crazed DOJ-FBI effort to use the Clinton spy ring at Fusion GPS, namely Nellie Ohr, to smear President Trump - even before he was sworn in as president," Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton said about the findings. "Clinton campaign operative Nellie Ohr may as well as have had a desk at the Justice Department."

After two years of investigation, thousands of interviews and hundreds of subpoenas, Special Counsel Robert Mueller found zero collusion between any Russia operative, asset, government official or individual and the Trump campaign.

I do hope the Ohr’s can have adjoining prisons. There should be several others joining them in the slammer, as well. But for cryin’ out loud, why is Bruce still on the taxpayers’ payroll? And was Nellie offered something big from the Dems in exchange for her creative work on the dossier?

Is there evidence that the FBI was funneling information to the Clinton Campaign that they were gathering on Trump?

THat would be another nice piece to have.

If the FBI can get audio of Martin Luther King, you can imagine what they got on the Trump Campaign.

This would be a huge problem if Republicans were doing this to the Democrats. But since it’s just democrats dirty politics, not so much.

#7: "When will ANYONE be indicted?"

Good question. "Tick Tock" — Hannity </sarc>

Heck, why hasn't Bruce Ohr been fired? President Trump is his ultimate boss.

The way I see it is that DOJ and the FBI are so polluted from top to bottom with Deep State operatives, that their plan is to stall and foot drag, hoping that a Democrat will be elected in 2020. They are playing a game of "run out the clock".

Nellie Ohr is central to the whole Dossier thing.

She wrote it!

She then gave it to Steele who then passed it on thru his contacts at the FBI.

He was just a pawn, used for his name and imprimatur to give the dossier an air of serious intel.

The whole thing was a circular genesis from the beginning.

It’s going to come out..................

Only a woman would dream that scenario up.

She’s fluent in Russian, speaking and writing.

She cranked this little gem out, then gave it to Steele.

Steele apparently didn’t even bother to read what was in it, just did as he was told and passed it to the FBI contacts he had.

Probably didn’t care, just so long as the check cleared.............

The 34 page dossier written in installments had multiple authors. Nellie Ohr, Glenn Simpson, Sidney Blumenthal, Cody Shearer, and Steele wrote it. There was no Russian involvement.

And yet Bruce Ohr is still employed by the DoJ. Living sane in an insane world ain’t getting any easier.

I suspect that the folks whispering in Trump’s ear have convinced him that folks don’t care about SpyGate and FISA abuse is too complicated for the flyovers. Focus on the economy, black unemployment, Israel, etc etc.

Yuge blackpill, bigly.

Not Trump.....but Dems actually did collude with foreign countries to generate propaganda to affect a Presidential Election.
They forced a bogus investigation.....and in typical Dem fashion, they accused Trump of doing what they did......

.......there are dozens of memos that make up an actual diary of moment-by-moment events, during the FBI
investigation of Donald Trump (as candidate and as president), documented by Obama's FBI Director Comey......

SOURCE: CONSERVATIVE TREEHOUSE | 4/9/2019 | SUNDANCE / FR Posted by bitt
A late day submission to DC Circuit Court in a FOIA case reveals the content of previously
unknown James Comey memos
. Obama's entire anti-Trump operation is memorialized in writing:
<><> how Obama’s FBI Director James Comey wrote down the sources and code-names assigned;
<><> how confidential sources engaged with FISA coverage initiated by Obama's FBI;
<><> naming foreign governments assisting Obama and Hillary with their vile efforts;
<><> and the rollout plans for Obama's phony investigation....."by the book."

======================================

During her ill-fated campaign Hillary bragged about “foreign governments” supporting her election.

Are these the same “foreign governments” Comey had assisting their efforts to frame Trump? (smirk)

That would mean Obama, Comey and Hillary were colluding with foreign governments.

HILLARY AND OBAMA LEFT A FORMIDABLE GLOBAL PAPER TRAIL

Former Italian PM may have plotted with Obama to remove Trump
Gateway Pundit ^ | Joe Hoft / FR Posted by Timocrat
Members of Italian intelligence were approached by Hillary Clinton, the Obama Administration, and the Deep State in order to frame Trump by PLANTING EVIDENCE on American servers to force Trump to step down from office.

EXCLUSIVE: Rumors Swirling that Fired Italian Spies Were Connected in Plot to Eliminate Trump
GATEWAY PUNDIT ^ | 5/25/2019 | Joe Hoft / FR Posted by bitt

Rumors are swirling that the recent firings of top Italian spies were related to Obama and a plot to set up candidate and President Trump in a Hillary email scandal. Earlier this month Italian Prime Minister Conte asked for the resignations of four top intelligence officials after his call with President Donald Trump. And now another Internet Sleuth has uncovered some shocking news related to the recent removal of these top Italian intelligence ministers from their positions as top spies in the government.

The story begins in January 2017 when Computer World wrote about alleged crimes committed by Italian Giulio Occhionero: The Tuesday arrest of Giulio Occhionero and his sister, Francesca Maria, has brought to light what appears to be the biggest, and highest-profile, hacking of institutional and corporate accounts ever reported in Italy. The siblings have been planting the Pyramid Eye remote access Trojan on computers using a spear-phishing technique over several years, according to the arrest order. They attacked at least 18,000 high-profile targets, including former Prime Ministers Matteo Renzi and Mario Monti, President of European Central Bank Mario Draghi, as well as employees and heads of various ministries including Internal Affairs, Treasury, Finance and Education.

Nunes: ‘Someone was running an op against the Trump campaign on FOREIGN soil’
The National Sentinel ^ | 5/31/19 | Jon Dougherty / FR Posted by SleeperCatcher

House Intelligence Committee Ranking Member Devin Nunes told Fox News‘ Sean Hannity Thursday night that he is certain “someone” was running an intelligence operation against the 2016 Trump campaign “on foreign soil,” and that one or more U.S. allies were likely involved. “I think we can be sure about one thing and that is on foreign soil, someone was running operations against Trump campaign people,” he said. “Now, we don’t know if that was our government, if it was the British government or some type of firm of some kind, but I think it is definitely a fact that on British soil, maybe on Italian soil, there were activities going on that we need to get to the bottom of.” (Excerpt) Read more at thenationalsentinel.com ...

Australian Government Confirms Official Role in “Spygate”…
CONSERVATIVE TREEHOUSE ^ | 4/18/2019 | SUNDANCE / FR Posted by bitt
In response to media inquiry and FOIA demands, the government of Australia formally admitted today to the role of High Commissioner Alexander Downer and his engagements with George Papadopoulos in 2016. The timing coincides with the Mueller Report (released today), which states it was information about this engagement from Alexander Downer that opened the FBI counterintelligence investigation in July 2016. The Australian government cited the conclusion of the Robert Mueller special counsel investigation as the background for their willingness to comply with an 15-month-old FOIA request from Buzzfeed News.
