Het volgende artikel komt van Information Clearing House en handelt o.a. over het niet-schandaal van de ontmoeting van Trump jr. met een Russische advocaat. De schrijver Lee Perry, merkte eerder o.a. al op dat het heel normaal is, dat gekozen presidenten voor hun inwijding (inauguratie) tot president, contact hebben met buitenlandse mogendheden, zo is het al decennia de gewoonste zaak van de wereld dat deze gekozen presidenten en/of hun staf contact hebben met de Israëlische regering.
Perry merkt op, dat het verzamelen van stront over Trump door de Democraten, allesbehalve is vergeten, iets dat de Democraten wel graag willen….. Met grote bedragen werd de Britse ex-spion Steele door de Democraten betaald, om in Rusland bagger over Trump te verzamelen. Als er grote bedragen worden geboden, is de kans levensgroot dat de vergaarde informatie op z’n zachtst gezegd onbetrouwbaar is (Ap).

Forgetting
the ‘Dirty Dossier’ on Trump
By
Robert Parry
Exclusive:
The new Russia-gate furor is over Donald Trump Jr. meeting a Russian
who claimed to have dirt on Hillary Clinton, but the Clinton team’s
Russian cash-for-trash search against Trump Sr. is all but forgotten,
writes Robert Parry.
Essentially,
Trump’s oldest son is being accused of taking a meeting with a
foreign national who claimed to have knowledge of potentially illegal
activities by Trump’s Democratic rivals, although the promised
information apparently turned out to be a dud.
Yet,
on Monday, the Times led its newspaper with a story about this
meeting – and commentators on MSNBC and elsewhere are labeling
Trump Jr. a criminal if not a traitor for hearing out this lawyer.
Yet,
no one seems to remember that Hillary Clinton supporters paid large
sums of money, reportedly about $1 million, to have ex-British spy
Christopher Steele use his Russian connections to dig up dirt on
Trump inside Russia, resulting in a salacious dossier that Clinton
backers eagerly hawked to the news media.
Also,
the two events – Trump Jr.’s meeting with the Russian lawyer and
the Clinton camp’s commissioning of Steele’s Russia dossier –
both occurred in June 2016, so you might have thought it would be a
journalistic imperative to incorporate a reference or two to the
dossier.
But
the closest the Times came to that was noting: “Political campaigns
collect opposition research from many quarters but rarely from
sources linked to foreign governments.” That would have been an
opportune point to slide in a paragraph about the Steele dossier, but
nothing.
But
the Steele dossier is a more immediate and direct example of close
Hillary Clinton supporters going outside the United States for dirt
on Trump and collaborating with foreign nationals to dig it up –
allegedly from Kremlin insiders. Although it is still not clear
exactly who footed the bill for the Steele dossier and how much money
was spread around to the Russian contacts, it is clear that Clinton
supporters paid for the opposition research and then flacked the
material to American journalists.
As
I wrote on March 29, “An irony of the escalating hysteria about the
Trump camp’s contacts with Russians is that one presidential
campaign in 2016 did exploit political dirt that supposedly came from
the Kremlin and other Russian sources. Friends of that political
campaign paid for this anonymous hearsay material, shared it with
American journalists and urged them to publish it to gain an
electoral advantage. But this campaign was not Donald Trump’s; it
was Hillary Clinton’s.
“And,
awareness of this activity doesn’t require you to spin conspiracy
theories about what may or may not have been said during some
seemingly innocuous conversation. In this case, you have open
admissions about how these Russian/Kremlin claims were used.
“Indeed,
you have the words of Rep. Adam Schiff, the ranking Democratic member
of the House Intelligence Committee, in his opening
statement at
[a] public hearing on so-called ‘Russia-gate.’ Schiff’s
seamless 15-minute narrative of the Trump campaign’s alleged
collaboration with Russia followed the script prepared by former
British intelligence officer Christopher Steele who was hired as an
opposition researcher last June [2016] to dig up derogatory
information on Donald Trump.
“Steele,
who had worked for Britain’s MI-6 in Russia, said he tapped into
ex-colleagues and unnamed sources inside Russia, including leadership
figures in the Kremlin, to piece together a
series of sensational reports that
became the basis of the current congressional and FBI investigations
into Trump’s alleged ties to Moscow.
“Since
he was not able to go to Russia himself, Steele based his reports
mostly on multiple hearsay from anonymous Russians who claim to have
heard some information from their government contacts before passing
it on to Steele’s associates who then gave it to Steele who
compiled this mix of rumors and alleged inside dope into ‘raw’
intelligence reports.
“Besides
the anonymous sourcing and the sources’ financial incentives to dig
up dirt, Steele’s reports had numerous other problems, including
the inability of a variety of investigators to confirm key elements,
such as the salacious claim that several years ago Russian
intelligence operatives secretly videotaped Trump having prostitutes
urinate on him while he lay in the same bed in Moscow’s
Ritz-Carlton used by President Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama.
“That
tantalizing tidbit was included in Steele’s opening report to his
new clients, dated June 20, 2016. Apparently, it proved irresistible
in whetting the appetite of Clinton’s mysterious benefactors who
were financing Steele’s dirt digging and who have kept their
identities (and the amounts paid) hidden. Also in that first report
were the basic outlines of what has become the scandal that is now
threatening the survival of Trump’s embattled presidency.
