IIRC Lee Stranahan has for a year or two now been pointing to this guy as central to the effort from the start. Part of the Cody Shearer, Clinton operative mix.

(from the article):"Jonathan Winer, who served as special envoy to Libya through early 2017, was Steele’s contact at the State Department.
He arranged a meeting for Steele in October 2016 with another State Department official at Foggy Bottom
to share findings from a dossier of research he had compiled on Donald Trump."

Given the Steele dossier was a publication from the Clinton regime,
and seeing as how Winer had been in Clinton's State Dept.as envoy to Lybia,
I wonder if he has any insight into the Benghazi incident under Clinton's watch ?

Good question, maybe if we had an AG we could find out, but since we don’t, we won’t.

Agreed. Where is AG Barr?
Where is FBI Chris Wray?

Oh, are we all still pretending that the NSA doesn’t have copies of all these ‘deleted’ emails, like they have copies of all of Hillary’s ‘deleted’ emails?

I forgot we are supposed to pretend we don’t know that is the case.

Hi.

As everyone knows destruction of U.S. government documents is illegal under most all circumstances. Especially those docs under subpoena.

I think it’s called a ‘FELONY’, but I could be wrong.

HRC did it and it was okey-dokey.........

So, some guy asks a State Department official to destroy State Department records ( purchased/obtained using taxpayers money, this jerk Steel doesn’t work for free) and the said SD official duly obliges!

Worse then that. A Foreign National and former intelligence employee of a foreign government asked a US State Department Official to destroy official State Department documents and the little traitor does it.

That is "hung by the neck until dead" sort of activity.

I’m thinking that Deep State has been around a lot longer than we imagine...

Is it still too early to blame Barr for the lack of action against the Deep State?

For some, Barr is never to blame. This is especially true of Q-bots.

It might make some sense to keep these 'private' intelligence organizations in mind in light of the recent documentary by Millicent Weaver.

Incestuous is a bit too mild a word for some of this.

Obama Official Aided Anti-Trump Dossier Author at Lobbying Firm for Russians Who Bought Uranium One
Breitbart ^
Posted on ?2?/?27?/?2018? ?11?:?03?:?11? ?AM by son of terrence
NEW YORK — Jonathan M. Winer, the Obama State Department official who acknowledged regularly interfacing with the author of the controversial, largely discredited 35-page anti-Trump dossier, served as senior vice president of a firm that did lobbying work for Tenex, the U.S. subsidiary of Rosatom, the Russian state corporation headquartered in Moscow. In 2010, Rosatom infamously purchased a controlling stake in Uranium One, the Canadian uranium mining company with operations in the U.S. The purchase was approved by the Obama administration in a decision that is currently being probed by the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence.
