CIA linked Nellie Ohr did Opposition Research on Trump

then she gave the information to her husband who was working for the Obama justice system. How much of that information was used for the FBI's investigation into his possibly being a Russian asset?

CIA-Linked Nellie Ohr Gave Extensive Anti-Trump Research To High-Ranking DOJ Husband

The wife of former Justice Department #4 official Bruce Ohr conducted extensive opposition research on Trump family members and campaign aides while working for Fusion GPS - the firm paid by the Clinton campaign to produce a 'salacious and unverified' Russian-sourced dossier which would later be used against Trump and his campaign.

According to a newly released transcript of Nellie Ohr's closed-door Congressional testimony, Ohr - who speaks fluent Russian, explored relationships between then-candidate Donald Trump and Russian organized crime, according to Fox News.

“I was asked to research Trump’s family broadly in connection with any—any Russian connections,” Ohr stated, adding that she “did some research on all of them, but not in much depth.”

Ohr explained that she researched Donald Trump Jr. and Ivanka Trump, specifically their “travels.”

She added that she was looking “to see whether they were involved in dealings and transactions with people who had suspicious pasts, or suspicious types of dealings.” -Fox News

Also interesting from the transcripts is that Nellie passed Bruce research she had done for Fusion GPS on a memory stick.

Ohr worked with Fusion GPS between October 2015 and September 2016. She also admitted during testimony that she favored Hillary Clinton as a candidate, and would have been less comfortable researching her Russia ties (P. 105).

Meanwhile, some have wondered if Nellie's late-life attraction to Ham radios was in fact a method of covertly communicating with others about the Trump-Russia investigation, in a way which wouldn't be surveilled by the NSA or other agencies.

was Nellie Ohr’s late-in-life foray into ham radio an effort to evade the Rogers-led NSA detecting her participation in compiling the Russian-sourced Steele dossier? Just as her husband’s omissions on his DOJ ethics forms raise an inference of improper motive, any competent prosecutor could use the circumstantial evidence of her taking up ham radio while digging for dirt on Trump to prove her consciousness of guilt and intention to conceal illegal activities. -The Federalist

....
Last August, emails turned over to Congressional investigators revealed that Steele was much closer to the Obama administration than previously disclosed, and his DOJ contact Bruce Ohr reported directly to Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates - who approved at least one of the FISA warrants to surveil Trump campaign aide Carter Page.

Lindsay Graham is saying that he wants a special prosecutor appointed to look into this. I think it's a great idea, but not until Trump releases the full and unredacted FISA warrants and other documents that the FBI used to surveil his campaign and Page. I'd put more hope that it's a real investigation not another snipe hunt if he does that. If he doesn't then f'ck it. I'm saying that Trump has always been a willing participant in this two year distraction from more serious issues that people are facing. Will solving the Russia Gate Saga end Sexism wealth inequality? Will it end Misogyny the increasing problem of homeless which is on the rise? Congress probably doesn't have any intention of doing it either, but at least people can see them ignoring it and possibly put pressure on the new kids in congress who might give a damn about how our government is still failing it's duty to us.

Speaking of nefarious connections to foreign governments. Let's look into Hillary and Bill's connections during her time as Secretary of State and how governments, corporations and people who had business with Hillary's state department gave millions to her foundation and also to Bill for giving speeches. Plus there are many country's governments that were donating to their foundation just for unknown reasons. Australia, New Zealand and many others gave upwards of $25 million (billion ?) annually to the foundation. Why? Hell if I know, but I sure would like to find out.

Hey goose and gander thing here right?

FBI Ordered To Let Judge Review Comey 'Obstruction' Memos Ahead Of Possible Public Release

The FBI was ordered by a D.C. judge to hand over copies of former director James Comey's memos about his interactions with President Trump prior to his firing, in order to determine whether they can be released to the public.

U.S. District Judge James Boasberg in Washington on Thursday ordered the Federal Bureau of Investigation to submit both clean and redacted versions of the documents by April 1 as part of a Freedom of Information Act case brought by CNN and other organizations, including USA Today and the conservative activist group Judicial Watch Inc.
....
Judicial Watch's Chris Farrell pointed out at the time that Comey therefore mishandled national defense information when he "knowingly and willfully" leaked them to his Law Professor pal at Columbia University, Daniel Richman.

It's also mishandling of national defense information, which is a crime. So it's clear that Mr. Comey not only authored those documents, but then knowingly and willfully leaked them to persons unauthorized, which is in and of itself a national security crime. Mr. Comey should have been read his rights back on June 8th when he testified before the Senate.

Given that James Comey ostensibly leaked unredacted information to Richman, the DOJ's redactions would appear to confirm that Comey did in fact commit the federal crime of leaking classified information.

If Petrayous could give his mistress classified information for her book and not be charged under the espionage act makes it pretty sure that Comey will not see any punishment for what he did. He gave his files on his meeting with Trump to a friend so he'd leak it to the press and get a special prosecutor appointed. BTW. In case you're interested Petrayous had to pay a $100,000 fine, was demoted one rank and got two years probation. Meanwhile Chelsea Manning is still in prison and in solitary confinement. She gets two hours out of her cell from 1-3 am. She doesn't get to see the sun which will make any depressive issues worse. F'ck the government!

Apparently holocaust denial is not an issue anymore. Lots of people are denying the one in Gaza with absolutely no repercussions.

This time it's James Baker who was speaking with David Corn from Mother Jones about the Steele dossier and Baker is also being investigated for the bad things he did.

Yeah I think that this whole sh*tstorm needs to be investigated or for all of the stuff that happened to get out to the public. Of course it's only alternative websites that are covering it so the people who need to hear about won't. Hey here's an idea. For penance Rachel should have to cover the other side of Russia Gate and everyone who made her show the number one should have to watch her. Karma baby!

No matter where you look, there are elitists trying to steal more of everything anyway they can.
