CNN, ABC, NBC, and MSNBC all have reported that the FBI did follow their guidelines in the opening of Crossfire Hurricane. The FBI’s threshold is low for the opening of an investigation. Quoting from the IG’s report, page 53, footnote 167, “As detailed in Chapter Two, the DIOG provides for two types of predicated investigations, Preliminary Investigations and Full Investigations. A Preliminary Investigation may be opened based upon “any allegation or information” indicative of possible criminal activity or threats to the national security; a Full Investigation may be opened based upon an “articulable factual basis” of possible criminal activity or threats to the national security.”
Articulable, meaning, if you can say it, you can investigate it. This low threshold becomes evident when Hillary Clinton knowingly feeds a false allegation to the FBI. In or about October 14th, of 2016, Hillary Clinton dispatched her lawyer, Michael Sussman, to bring a report that outlined that Donald Trump had a secret computer server in Trump Tower that had a direct connection to a Russian bank and thus, the Kremlin was giving Donald Trump his marching orders. It’s unclear if that server did exist, I wager it did. As the director of the FBI, James Comey when asked about this allegation, he said the FBI investigated this allegation and it proved to be false. This raises so many questions in my mind. I know Hillary Clinton was the source for two reasons; 1. Hillary Clinton posted the allegation on her Twitter feed. 2. James Baker, an FBI employee, testified that he took the allegation from Michael Sussman and Sussman told him that the allegation had come to Hillary Clinton by way of computer scientists.
The FBI altered a document from the CIA that showed Page was an asset of theirs. Quoting from the IG’s report, page 255: ” Thus, the Liaison’s email was altered to read: “My recollection is that Page was or is and [sic] ‘[digraph]’ and not a ‘source’ but the [documents] will explain the details.” (Emphasis added). The OGC Attorney also did not include in the email sent to SSA 2 the initial email inquiry from the OGC Attorney to the Liaison about Page’s status as a ” [digraph] source.”
Same page, here we see the FBI employee demonstrate intent to commit a crime: “In response to the June 19 email, SSA 2 asked the OGC Attorney if SSA 2 could send the email to the FBI agents working on the matter. The OGC Attorney responded: “Yes. I actually already did on Friday when [the 01 Attorney] said we’re good to go. Sorry for not cc’ing you.”
My questions: How did the “computer scientists” know there was a server in Trump Tower? Did these “computer scientists” hack the Trump Tower network to discover the server? Did Hillary Clinton have a mole, a spy in Trump Tower and by clandestine actions, the spy discovered the server? I have an email from the DNC in which the writer admits they have spies in the RNC, “spies have told me…” How did the FBI investigate this allegation? Did the FBI, in turn, hack the Trump Tower network? Why didn’t the FBI investigate the source of the allegation to see if there was a case for filing a false report? The FISC approves 97% of surveillance applications that have been submitted to them. How many more cases are there where the FBI altered documents and submitted falsehoods to gain surveillance on U.S. citizens?
I believe Hillary Clinton used the known FBI’s low threshold to investigate to give the FBI a fishing expedition license. As long as the FBI is investigating a possible crime, the FBI need not ignore the fact that they didn’t find any evidence of the crime that they were looking for when they find a crime that they were not looking for during their investigation. In my opinion, the FBI became a willing member of Hillary Clinton’s campaign for president. Remember, the FBI knew the Steele dossier was generated by Hillary Clinton’s campaign.
The FBI made 17 “errors or omissions” in their FISA surveillance warrant application to spy on Doctor Carter Page. What the media isn’t telling you; the intelligence Community(IC) uses the two hop rule. Meaning, everyone Page communicated with, the IC surveilled. Moreover, everywhere Page went was subject to surveillance. The office building in which Page had his office has a sky bridge connection to Trump Tower. Page testified that he ate his day’s meals in Trump Tower. Hence, everyone who worked or resided in Trump Tower was subject to surveillance by the IC of which the FBI is a member.
Christopher Steele didn’t go to Russia to gather the information that he published in his dossier. Steele had one source in Russia who had many sub-sources. The FBI, after the first issuance of the FISA warrant on Page, found and interviewed Steele’s source. Quoting from page 188 from the IG’s report: ” The Primary Subsource also stated that he/she never expected Steele to put the Primary Subsource’s statements in reports or present them as facts. According to WFO Agent 1, the Primary Sub-source said he/she made it clear to Steele that h’e/she had no proof to support the statements from his/her sub-sources and that “it was just talk.” WFO Agent 1 said that the Primary Sub-source explained that his/ her information came from “word of mouth and hearsay;” “conversation that [he/she] had with friends over beers;” and that some of the information, such as allegations about Trump’s sexual activities, were statements he/she heard made in “jest.”341 The Primary Sub-source also told WFO Agent 1 that he/she believed that the other sub-sources exaggerated their access to information and the relevance of that information to his/her requests. The Primary Sub-source told WFO Agent 1 that he/she “takes what [sub-sources] tell [him/ her] with ‘a grain of salt.”
And yet, the FBI didn’t inform the surveillance court and sought 3 more renewals using the same information from Steele’s dossier. All the networks claimed without knowing that the dossier was only a component of the FISA warrant application. Comey lied on this fact too. Quoting from page 126 of the IG’s report: “The FISA request form drew almost entirely from Steele’s reporting in describing the factual basis to establish probable cause to believe that Page was an agent of a foreign power, including the secret meeting between Carter Page and Divyekin alleged in Steele’s Report 94 and the role of Page as an intermediary between Russia and the Trump campaign’s then manager, Paul Manafort, in the “well-developed conspiracy” alleged in Steele’s Report 95.”
Carter Page and George Papadopoulos were under surveillance before the opening of Crossfire Hurricane. Quoting from the IG’s report, page 407: “The FBI was not required to notify the Department of those investigative activities and we are unaware of any Department official having had advance knowledge of the FBl’s plan to consensually monitor conversations between CHSs and Page and Papadopoulos, both before and after they were affiliated with the Trump campaign, and a conversation with a high-level Trump campaign official.” That means Ben Carson’s campaign was likely surveilled by the FBI. CHS=confidential human source. The consensually monitor conversations were only the CHS’ consent, not the target’s.
President Obama knew that the Trump campaign was being surveilled by the IC. Quoting from the IG’s report, page 77: “he did mention to President Obama and others at a meeting in the Situation ·Room that the FBI was trying to determine whether any U.S. person had worked with the Russians in their efforts to interfere in the 2016 U.S. election.194 Corney said he thought it was important that the President know the nature of the FBI’s efforts without providing any specifics. Corney said although he did not recall exactly what he said, he may have said there were four individuals with “some association or connection to the Trump campaign.” I read the FISA application on Carter Page. The FISA application shows that President Obama was aware that the FBI was seeking a surveillance warrant on Carter Page.
