Revealed: FBI Used ‘Briefing’ With Trump, Flynn To Gather Evidence For Crossfire Hurricane Operation
breitbart ^ | 1-17-2020 | Aaron Klein

Posted on 02/17/2020 9:40:22 AM PST by blam

The FBI under James Comey underhandedly sent a senior member of the team investigating alleged collusion between Russia and the Trump campaign to conduct a standard official FBI security briefing for presidential campaigns with then-candidate Donald Trump and his then national security advisor, Michael T. Flynn.

Unbeknownst to both Trump and Flynn, that FBI investigator memorialized that briefing, which included exchanges with Flynn and Trump, in an official document that was added to the Crossfire Hurricane case file probing the Trump campaign over unsubstantiated and ultimately discredited charges of Russian collusion.

The FBI file documenting the August 2016 briefing describes two questions asked by candidate Trump as well as comments from Trump and Flynn and exchanges with the briefer from the FBI who was not identified to either Trump or Flynn during the briefing as working on the Crossfire Hurricane team probing Flynn and other members of the Trump campaign.

James A. Baker, the former FBI general counsel, conceded that the briefer “was there on the off chance that somebody said something that might be useful.”

This means the FBI’s controversial Crossfire Hurricane probe team investigating members of the Trump campaign not only directly interfaced with Trump and Flynn without telling them but also recorded their comments in the official case file. Flynn at the time was already a target of the FBI probe.

Moreover, the FBI investigator who conducted the briefing says that he used the occasion as an opportunity to study Flynn’s behavior and mannerisms just in case the FBI needed to eventually conduct a subject interview of Flynn. Indeed, the same investigator himself was the FBI agent who conducted an in-person FBI interview with Flynn on January 24, 2017 in connection with the FBI’s investigation of Flynn.

Somebody has got to go to prison. A collection activity on a sitting President with no vetted probable cause.

Repeat this often when corresponding with your elected officials. Someone has to go to prison.

I guess it’s ok to investigate political candidates if they’re Republicans.

It cannot be repeated enough that the Obama admin, which included Joe Biden, was investigating the presidential candidate from an opposing party before August 2016.

And the fey Wray will be applying additional training to this low level, corrupt FIB Agent who can’t ID illegal orders?

Why isn’t this Agent [perhaps Very Special?] leaking?

It’s even ok to ask foreign governments to investigate politcal candidates if they’re Republicans.

So predictable. People like Comey are actually so lacking in insight that they truly believe that they, and people in government in general, are the best and the brightest. Therefore, inexperienced people (i.e. non-government people) like Trump will be easy to ‘cull’ from politics.

What they truly do not understand is that government selects for those whose ego way out paces their talents. Their self-assessment is horribly inaccurate.

Does this FBI “investigator” have a name? Is he/she still investigating for the FBI?

This is not new information, this was known for over two years.

If this is news to anyone, they have not been paying attention.

The real news is that not a damn person has gone to jail because of this criminal activity.

Lol, someone should mail over to AG Barr the 3 or 4 books that lay out the entire coup. Gregg Jarrett even wrote 2 books about it. About 90% of the plot is floating around out there.

So the FBI penetrated the White House in a covert spy op. This is pure police state that spy agencies are running operations against our elected leaders.

The FBI and CIA need to pay a brutal price for this. Short of disbanding, they should face the most severe restrictions imaginable. For CIA they should be reduced to collating and organizing the work of the DOD agencies and they should be subordinate to the DOD, and have zero covert ops capability.
The FBI should be reduced to bank robberies and kidnappings and their labs should be administered by a consortium of state police agencies.

This is the most serious sedition that has ever happened in America and we should act like it.

If you EVER need to be interviewed by the FBI, insist on a video record of the meeting. The FBI will attempt to prohibit such a video record and will site FBI policy. Dont fall for their tricks. Their “notes” are considered as the official record of such conversation unless other means or records of the meeting are obtained.

In other words, it is your word against the FBI’s with the FBI having the advantage -IF- you follow the FBI’s policy.
