FBI to plead guilty of colluding with Russia to “get Trump” – ok, not the FBI per se, but the official who led a counterintelligence division and played a key role in the Trump/Russia probe
From here:
FBI Official Involved In Trump-Russia Hoax To Plead Guilty To -- Conspiring With Russia | ZeroHedge
“Charles McGonigal was arrested in January and charged with violating US sanctions on Russia by taking secret payments from a Russian oligarch, Oleg V. Deripaska, to investigate a rival oligarch.
"The court has been informed that defendant Charles McGonigal may wish to enter a change of plea," wrote Judge Jennifer Reardon in a brief order in which she also scheduled a hearing for Aug. 15.
McGonigal initially pleaded not guilty on four corruption charges - including conspiring to evade U.S. sanctions, money laundering, conspiring to commit money laundering and conspiring to violate federal law against doing business with sanctioned individuals. Each count carries a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison.”

Alexander Downer was the drunk Australian ex-politician who defrauded Australian taxpayers with a massive 25 million dollar donation to the Clinton Foundation:
Australian diplomat whose tip prompted FBI’s Russia-probe has tie to Clintons | The Hill
“Former Australian Foreign Minister Alexander Downer’s role in securing $25 million in aid from his country to help the Clinton Foundation fight AIDS is chronicled in decade-old government memos archived on the Australian foreign ministry’s website. “
Downer’s source for the tip was obtained via a drunken vonversation.
Remember superspy Stefan Halper and the shadowy Josef Mifsud?
“Department of Defense inspector general review of the office uncovered a stunning lack of oversight for $1.05 million awarded in four contracts to Halper, and just last week, Sen. Chuck Grassley accused the ONA of being a “slush fund" for “political research projects.”
Who Is Joseph Mifsud, the Professor in the George Papadopoulos Russia Investigation? (newsweek.com)
“Within two weeks of joining Donald Trump's presidential campaign, George Papadopoulos met a professor while traveling in Italy. Their encounter took place on March 14, 2016, after Trump had named Papadopoulos a foreign policy adviser earlier that month. The London-based professor apparently told Papadopoulos he had ties to Russian officials, and over the next weeks and months, the adviser spoke with campaign leaders about arranging a meeting with those officials.”
Jack Posobiec weighed in:
Let’s see just how deep this goes and whether anything goes back to the real source of the Russia Hoax – Hillary Clinton with full knowledge of Obama and then CIA chief Brennan.

Wouldn't trust Alexander Downer as far as I could kick him. He has profited personally from just about every position he's held, both in gov't & private sector and is expert in playing one side against the other.
