>Public knowledge about the involvement of foreign intelligence services in the spying operation that targeted the Trump campaign has so far been based on anonymously sourced media reports and unsubstantiated allegations.
>In a June 10 letter (pdf) to Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.), Boyd formally confirmed, for the first time, that the Justice Department is reviewing if actions taken by these foreign intelligence services in connection to the Trump campaign were validly predicated and free of improper motives.
>“The review is broad in scope and multifaceted and is intended to illuminate open questions regarding the activities of U.S. and foreign intelligence services as well as non-governmental organizations and individuals,” Boyd said in the letter.
>Attorney General William Barr, who believes spying on Trump’s campaign occurred in 2016, assigned U.S. Attorney John Durham to handle the inquiry. Durham is collaborating with the domestic intelligence community and “certain foreign actors” to determine if the investigation of the Trump campaign “complied with applicable policies and laws,” Boyd said. President Donald Trump delegated to Barr the authority to declassify any document he needs as part of the investigation.
>News reports based on anonymous sources have alleged, since 2017, that foreign intelligence services, particularly those from the UK, were collecting intelligence on the Trump campaign as early as 2015 and forwarding it to the United States.
>The first formal hint that foreign intelligence agencies may have been involved in the spying operation came from the president. On Sept. 21, 2018, the president walked back his order to declassify a batch of documents related to spying on his campaign. In explaining the move, he wrote on Twitter that “key allies” had called him and asked not to release the documents. Trump’s reference to “key allies” suggested that the documents to be released may include damaging information on the governments involved.
>The United States has a formal intelligence sharing relationship with four nations: the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. This intelligence alliance, named Five Eyes, allows for the sharing of a wide range of intelligence among the five governments. Documents released by former CIA employee Edward Snowden in 2013 showed that the governments used Five Eyes to spy on their own citizens using the intelligence they collected from one another as a way to circumvent strict prohibitions against domestic surveillance.
>The counterintelligence investigation of the Trump campaign officially started on July 31, 2016, based on an allegation that Trump campaign associate George Papadopoulos told Australian diplomat Alexander Downer that Russia had damaging information on 2016 presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.
>According to the final report by special counsel Robert Mueller, the United States received the tip about Papadopoulos from a “foreign government.”
>How the tip about Papadopoulos made it to the FBI remains unclear. Then-House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes (R-Calif.) said in April 2018 that no official intelligence passed through the Five Eyes channels that could be used to start an investigation into the Trump campaign.
>Papadopoulos has long alleged that he was the target of an international spy operation to take down Trump.
Wyatt Price
>Then-Central Intelligence Agency Director John Brennan shared foreign intelligence information on the Trump campaign with the FBI before the summer of 2016, according to his May 2017 testimony to the House Intelligence Committee.
>“It was during the summertime but even previous. There [is] ongoing sharing of information with the bureau and so it was over the course of the year,” Brennan said.
>During the same hearing, Brennan said that the information he passed to the FBI served as the basis of the bureau’s investigation of the Trump campaign. Brennan also conceded that while the intelligence he passed on raised his suspicions, it didn’t amount to evidence of collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia. The CIA deals specifically with intelligence gathered overseas primarily from human sources.
>The FBI investigation eventually morphed into the special counsel investigation. Mueller concluded that probe in March, finding no evidence to establish that Trump or anyone on his campaign colluded with Russia.
>The core of the verified public knowledge about spying on Trump’s campaign is anchored in the declassified Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) applications for a warrant to surveil former Trump campaign associate Carter Page.
>While Page had quit the campaign by the time the FBI secured a warrant to spy on him, FISA warrants typically allow for retroactive data collection dating back up to five years. While the scope of the spying granted to the FBI in the Page warrant remains classified, it’s possible the bureau could access the communications of the entire Trump campaign as well as people who have interacted with the campaign, going back five years from October 2016 and lasting through October 2017.
Alexander Rogers
>In applying for the FISA warrant, top officials at the FBI and DOJ failed to disclose that the key evidence against Page was based on an unverified dossier compiled by a former foreign spy and paid for by the Hillary Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee.
>The process for obtaining the Page FISA warrant was riddled with irregularities and is currently the subject of an investigation by Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz. Barr had previously told Congress that Horowitz would deliver his report by June.
>The deadline is likely to come and go, according to Rep. Mark Meadows (R-N.C.), who said the investigation is likely to go on longer because the inspector general has received additional information. Meadows made the comments the day before Boyd sent the letter revealing the involvement of foreign intelligence services.

Yup. Awan brothers probably collecting blackmail on all of congress specifically for Netanyahu to use however he pleases.
Thomas Evans
This is a quality thread, thanks op
I remain cautiously optimistic that this will blow up into the greatest political scandal in history
Asher Adams
I will assume for one reply that it's because your a leaf. I'm curious how this theory works. Do tell.
Logan Williams
checkedddddddd
Nathan Williams
>I remain cautiously optimistic that this will blow up into the greatest political scandal in history This is gonna blow up into not only that, but the greatest revelations in the history of mankind. Trump is easily the most persecuted person in all of history.
kek, hopefully they investigate Australia’s role in the whole affair. Alexander Downer, (Australia’s Foreign Minister b/w 1996-2003) was key to the entire affair.
that would certainly explain why they've been memory holed so fast i dunno why is the unelected Kushner working on everything ? or why Ivanka is at the whitehouse at all ? or you know why EVERYONE around Trump is jewish
Gavin Myers
is Pap's about to get suicded?
Leo Fisher
>Kushner Hey ZOG shill. You don't like Kushner because he's destroying the status quo.
No shit user, like anyone else who is in a position of authority, however Papadopolous’ tweets have really exposed Australia’s role as the chief purveyor of the globohomo complex, Australia isn’t “based” at all.
Josiah Powell
you're not a ZOG shill when you call out Kushner Kusher IS ZOG >destroying the status quo so funny remember me which qualification Kushner have ? behind corruption and inside trading that is how did he buy 666th avenue being 300 millions in dept ?
Matthew Kelly
Alexander Downer is probably a dual citizen of Israel.
Gavin Brooks
Actually no. You're an Israeli shill hiding behind an leaf proxy but you have no evidence to back up any arguments you make. You don't like Kushnre because he's not a zionist.
>You're an Israeli shill hiding behind an leaf proxy how does it work ? i call out zionist and kushner and i'm the zionist because Kushner is clearly not a zionist ? wtf kind of inter dimensional mental gymnastic move is that
Jackson Allen
PROJECT FULSOME
Blake Foster
so how Kushner bought 666th avenue being hundred of millions in dept ?
because i'm french and your assumption are always wrong the evidence are easy to find Kushner was 300 millions in dept when he was able to buy 666th avenu for 1.8 billions how someone does that ? you know Brookfield Asset Management ?
Eli Flores
>kushner not a zionist
holy shit, neck yourself you kike
Sebastian Cook
Who just happen to be director of Brookfield Asset Management ? Charles Kushner i know right surprising
Adam Ward
HAHAHAHAH THE STATUS QUO IS DEAD AND SOON NETANYAHU WILL BE DEAD HIS EXECUTION TELEVISED WORLDWIDE.
>thread about spygate >leaf shill goes full whataboutism classic. have a bump.
Daniel Peterson
So you have literally no theory of your own or another to provide. Once again if you weren't a leaf I'd assume you were a jew but I'd like to try once more for my sake. You seem to believe Trump is replacing the swamp full of jews with his own swamp full of jews. What is the fucking theory. Are there 2 groups of jews? Is the current swamp not jewish? Are you a faggot who refuses to think critically when responding? OR. Are you a fucking jew?
Leo Gomez
He's a Zionist shill.
Luke Cooper
>Tick tock shlomo wait a minute you're the one defending Kushner the zionist and you call me schlomo ? how does it even work ? the very Kushner Foundation bankrolls radical jewish west bank settlers how the fuck can you ever think Kushner is not a zionist ? how does it even work ? Trump and Kushner will save the west in your imagination ?
>You seem to believe Trump is replacing the swamp full of jews with his own swamp full of jews. funny shit thats exactly precisely what he's doing. >Are you a faggot who refuses to think critically when responding says the emotional retard who refuse to think critically and try to impose his personality cult fuck off you are the zionist fren but whatever >nose showing intensify
how does it work in your head ? Kushner doesn like bibi ? thats why when Bibi come to the US he sleep at Jared house ? or that's why Jared go regularly in Israel to meet Netanyahu to talk (((peace))) plan even when he's an unelected buddy with more than a shady past and a shady family all deeply implicated in scam fraud and inside trading ? why would you ever think anyone with a brain can believe Kushner is not a zionist ?
>Converting to Judaism isn’t an easy task, but Trump put in the work necessary to ultimately marry Kushner. According to The Times of Israel, “She went through a rigorous conversion process under the tutelage of Rabbi Haskel Lookstein at the Upper East Side’s Congregation Kehilath Jeshurun.”
Camden Morgan
JUDAISM IS A RELIGION. You just cucked yourself moron.
Steve Bannon, Ron Dermer and Netanyahu are gonna die in Guantanamo Bay for what they were involved in.
>You just cucked yourself moron. i obviously quoted an article whats your point ? >Steve Bannon, Ron Dermer and Netanyahu are gonna die in Guantanamo Bay for what they were involved in. no they will not and your Trump is blackmailed into doing the Zionist bidding you're a useful idiot period get over it
Nolan Jenkins
>no they will not and your Trump is blackmailed into doing the Zionist bidding Trump isn't blackmailed at all. That's why there's never gonna be a war with Iran.
Confirmed, thanks. You come in this thread to shit up conversation. I gave you an opportunity to become a part of the discussion and you refused to do anything but shit. You might not even be a jew, but your certainly a piece of shit that newfags should always strive to be better than. I don't give a fuck if you disagree with me because I probably disagree with you. But the fact that you can't provide an ounce of substance to anything you say makes me think your not here for discussion. Rather, to shut down discussion.
Carson Jackson
>Trump isn't blackmailed at all. That's why there's never gonna be a war with Iran. Yes he is. >But the fact that you can't provide an ounce of substance to anything you say >i can't use google and i'm a newfag so i will blame you for me being a lazy faggot ya ok
Damn, you have some really poor English for a leaf.
Benjamin Watson
>Bibi sleep at Kushner house because they're fuck buddy >Kushner sleep at bibi house in Israel because they're fuck buddy >somehow Trump Kushner and Ivanka are not zionist and hate bibi your brain on american culture i'm french and why the fuck should i care ? you,re not on reddit or jewbook where peoples will give you upvote for talking about someone else english that's a wine aunt argument
Kayden Butler
I still don't understand what that bit means. Sessions ultimately did nothing and was fucking worthless. what is the business about the resignation letter?
Jason Collins
>Trump is easily the most persecuted person in all of history. unfortunately the Obama spying scandal isn't about Trump, Trump was just the target that got outed. clearly the intel agencies were being massively abused with Bush and even earlier, but Obama took it to the next level and this is simply the tip of the iceberg
Xavier Foster
It's just really amusing, that's all. I don't give a fuck about that faggot reddit shot, man, why are you so assmad? You obviously are really invested in this thread so I'll just leave you and your baguettes alone.
Lucas Adams
It's a show. Trump was never upset about Sessions or the Mueller appointment. Sessions is gonna be a witness in the real cases. Just like Rosenstein and McCabe and others. Trump having Sessions resignation letter meant that Trump had leverage over the DOJ and Sessions, something that Bannon and Preibus were trying to stop.
Jacob Wright
lmao
He ran underage sex rings with Roy Cohn for the CIA, and the Mossad's Epstein/Maxwell operation procured their underage sex workers from Trump businesses.
There has never been a more compromised president other than Osama.
Landon Lewis
Kek. Cohn put Zionist kikes to death. You know the Rosenbergs? There's gonna be tons more soon enough.
>Kek. Cohn put Zionist kikes to death. how the fuck can you ever end up with that conclusion how can your fucking brain be that backward wtf is your problem
Connor Williams
I was just in granby last week for work. Tell me something that will make me believe your not on Israel time.
Josiah Harris
Kill yourself, kike.
Cohn was the guy who (((shut it down))) when McCarthy got wise to the fact that kikes were running USA and USSR. Once the communist front evaporated, Cohn suddenly didn't want to go after the real perps.
Donnie's best friend is literally the point man for protecting the jewish revolutionary subversives in the 20th century.
