Tucker BOMBSHELL: Podesta Group Is In Mueller’s ‘Crosshairs’ Over Russian Influence
Daily Caller ^ | 10-24-17 | Justin Caruso

Posted on 10/24/2017 6:06:03 PM PDT by bigbob

Fox News’ Tucker Carlson reported Tuesday night explosive details about the scope of special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into Russian influence in the United States, which may be putting the Podesta Group in Mueller’s “crosshairs.”

Carlson said in his opening segment that, according to a source Mueller is looking into the Podesta Group, a lobbying firm with close ties to Hillary Clinton, over spreading Russian influence in the United States during Barack Obama’s presidency.

Carlson said, “The central effort to extend Russian influence was focused on the executive branch, the Obama administration. The vehicle through which [Paul] Manafort worked for the Russians was a shell group called the European Centre for a Modern Ukraine. The group was supposedly based in Belgium but had no offices there. It had only two employees, both based in Ukraine.

“Their telephone number in Brussels rang in Kiev. It was a sham, yet it had a presence in Washington. The European Centre for a Modern Ukraine was a major client of the Podesta Group. Why did the Russians choose the Podesta Group? Because both Podestas were close to the Clintons, and Hillary was then Secretary of State. She could get things done for the Podestas’ Russian clients. It was influence peddling, the most obvious kind,” he continued.

The Podesta Group has close ties with Hillary Clinton.

SO HILLARY HAD A MOLE IN THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN during the primaries? Then the mole was fired. And no one was aware that Trump knew. Hahahahaha. Hillary wanted Trump because he would be so easy to beat. Because he is so crude and vile. And a real New Yorker who made his billions the old fashioned way rather than selling out his country.

Yes, I have encountered and unfortunately still encounter these people from time-to-time.

Psalm 57:6 King James Version

6 They have prepared a net for my steps; my soul is bowed down: they have digged a pit before me, into the midst whereof they are fallen themselves. Selah.

Psalm 56:5-7 New King James Version

5 All day they twist my words;
All their thoughts are against me for evil.

6 They gather together,
They hide, they mark my steps,
When they lie in wait for my life.

7 Shall they escape by iniquity?
In anger cast down the peoples, O God!

Psalm 91:7 King James Version

7 A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.

Remember, Manafort was only brought on board to deal with the convention. That’s it.

Ping to above as well


Psalm 64:5-7 New King James Version

5 They encourage themselves in an evil matter;
They talk of laying snares secretly;
They say, “Who will see them?”

6 They devise iniquities:
“We have perfected a shrewd scheme.”
Both the inward thought and the heart of man are deep.

7 But God shall shoot at them with an arrow;
Suddenly they shall be wounded.

Very soon now we will begin to see the rats deserting their sinking ship. We have been privy to “#ME TOO” for several weeks as members of the Hollywood elite face the reality of their personal terpitude. It will expand, slowly, gradually, to include the entire Progressive movement with its blatant hatred of American patriotism and its seedy, grubby, salacious treachery.
MAGA.
Bring down the criminal cabal.
Drain the swamp.

How can someone look at the art piece and not be sickened?

Headless and in the same position that Jeffrey Dhamer placed his victims in.

AMEN ......the Lord God is still in charge and He hates falsehood.

these creepy godless democrats have no chance or even a prayer.

and now for a quote.....

“It is interesting that the LORD saved those “who sigh and groan over all the abominations which are being committed in its midst.”
We think of how God saved Lot who likewise “felt his righteous soul tormented day after day by their lawless deeds”.

Calvin commentary on Jeremiah

Comey investigated Hillary and gave her a get out jail free card. Mullers and Comedy are ideological the same and both corrupt. Muller will not seek out justice but will block justice and truth and equal law for all.

I think mcjordansc is on the right site. Problem is McJ, they want you to believe he is a lunatic.

Like you, I have no doubt they set trump up to be the nominee. They didn’t think he could win and thought if by chance he did they could take him down, easily put together plan b, he is a lunatic and the people are stupid.

Fortunately he’s not no peanut farmer. They still might bring him to heel, but I doubt it. They will attempt the next step and the next...

Is that you, McInsane? Jeb?

Donald Trump did not run at the behest of the Clintons. That is hilariously stupid.

<tinfoilhat>My take is that if this gets legs, Soros may have decided it's time to throw the useful idiots (Clintons, Weinstein, Hollywood, etc.) under the bus. If so, then that means things are entering a new, dangerous phase.</tinfoilhat>
