From the latest court filing by Special Counsel John Durham, we learn that Robert Mueller’s FBI investigators interviewed Christopher Steele’s primary Source, Igor Danchenko, on June 15, 2017.
In addition to being on the payroll of the FBI since March as a confidential informant, exactly two weeks later, June 29, 2017, the Robert Mueller special counsel renewed the Carter Page FISA application to continue their exploitation of the comprehensive title-1 surveillance warrant against the Trump administration.
Additionally, within the court filing against Igor Danchenko, we find that FBI personnel from Robert Mueller’s team interviewed Christopher Steele:
Now consider this specific line of questioning of Robert Mueller, conducted on July 24, 2019, after the Mueller special counsel published their report. The questioning is from New York Representative Elise Stephanik to Robert Mueller on the specifics of the special counsel questioning Christopher Steele and/or his source, Igor Danchenko.
Keep in mind, ONLY ROBERT MUELLER knew at the time of this questioning that Igor Danchenko remained a paid confidential informant at the time of his answers. WATCH:
.
AFTER originally interviewing Danchenko in January and February 2017, in March the DOJ/FBI then reinterviewed him before refiling the second FISA renewal in April. With Danchenko on their payroll they FBI did not need to worry about him undermining the Trump-Russia narrative or speaking the truth about the dossier. This approach protected the fraudulently obtained title-1 surveillance warrant. The surveillance warrant was renewed in April.
AFTER Robert Mueller is appointed special counsel in May 2017, with Danchenko on the FBI payroll and under control. When Danchenko is interviewed on June 15, 2017, he is being interviewed as part of the Mueller operation. Special Counsel Robert Mueller and Andrew Weissmann now submit the FISA application for another renewal on June 29, 2017. The fraudulently obtained title-1 surveillance warrant was again renewed.
The reason to keep Danchenko on the FBI payroll is to mitigate any risk he might present if he were to speak. A corrupt FBI network in Washington DC put a control mechanism over Danchenko in order to preserve their surveillance warrant, which was built upon fraud by using the Steele Dossier. They renewed the surveillance warrant twice more (April and June) while Danchenko was a paid confidential informant.
As you can see from the Durham filing, a controlled Danchenko was then handed-off to the Mueller probe, who kept Danchenko on the FBI payroll throughout the Robert Mueller investigation (ended in April 2019) until October 2020 when Danchenko was dropped by the FBI and John Durham “officially” took over and was appointed special counsel.
On July 24, 2019, when Robert Mueller is answering the questions about Chris Steele, the dossier and the Steele sources therein, Mueller was able to deflect and dodge answering the questions about it because AG Bill Barr put John Durham into place in May 2019.
AG Bill Barr put John Durham into place in May 2019, immediately following Robert Mueller’s completed investigation, April 2019, for this exact reason.
It is one long continuum.
Danchenko appears to be one of the good guys.
So naturally, he’s facing charges.
One of the good guys? You must be a communist Demonrat. Silliest comment I have read today.
Nope. It is a farcically redundant prosecution that Durham now conducts of Igor Danchenko. Like Sussman, Danchenko is also part of the Clinton network and will get the Sussman Clinesmith treatment. He worked for Fiona Hill at the Brookings institute, a Democrat think tank, as a Russian expert. She introduced him to Christopher Steele.
Hill testified that president of Brookings, Strobe Talbot, Hillary Clinton’s deputy Secretary of State, brother in law to long time Clinton operator Cody Shearer, close associate of Sidney Blumenthal, showed her the dossier.
Danchenko’s far from one of the good guys. He’s one of the Comey crew’s patsy guys though. What’s sick is that Durham’s about to claim he fooled the FBI rather than the other way around.
Would you consider all those potentially facing charges to be the good guys?
I’m surprised nobody’s mentioned the Brooking’s institute
You rang? Look above.
They are in this mess up to their eyeballs.
“On July 24, 2019, when Robert Mueller is answering the questions about Chris Steele”…. It seems to me, that, in ALL of the appearances by Mueller before ANYONE, that he didn’t “answer” any of the ‘probing’ questions asked. Same M.O. by all those connected with this Evil group. We have seen this again and again throughout.
It comes down to the fact that the American people are not permitted to have answers to any questions the IC does not want answered. Unbelievable sometimes to realize that.
Bagpipes Barr is as big a liar as any of them. Such a sad corrupt lot they are these DOJ and FBI types. They are not clever, just incredibly dishonest and lawless. Pathetic.
The atypical DOJ Attorney. Show me an honest one and I will show you the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. 😉
It’s all so shameful. Barr installed to protect his friends and colleagues. Sussman only claimed he wasn’t working for Clinton for the record – they assumed she would win and no one would care. So his defense was a layup – they KNEW he was lying so it wasn’t material!
Now we learn DANCHENKO was being PAID TO LIE by the FBI. Same defense, same result.
Bread and circuses.
Question. Can Congress put an end to a Special Council investigation? Can anybody?
The AG can, but would initiate a storm of criticism, and likely an impeachment in the next House.
And the mainstream reporting is Durham just couldn’t find anything. It is infuriating
Are you proposing that AG Barr appointing SC Durham is just another deep state shell game is being played on the American public, much like SC Mueller?
I honestly believe the only thing we can be grateful for, is their age. Those coming up behind them are too emotional and stupid to be the cold killers these as*holes are!
so badass he couldn’t be fired?
mitch saw where he’d lose control of being most powerful man on earth to mule & andy, so he flicked it aside.
some really good GOPe finger wagging in this one:
Bill to protect special counsel wins bipartisan Senate committee approval – ABC News (go.com)
They kept Danchenko until October 2020 when they knew all the elements of their steal were in place.
That is proof that the FBI was an active part of the steal. Like we didn’t figure that out from their actions.
Determining that Russiagate was a hoax wasn’t in their purview.
Uncovering exculpatory evidence wasn’t in their purview.
Spend all that time and money “investigating” and never manage to determine it’s a hoax promulgated by Hillary.
Limp repubs need to haul Mueller’s senile ass back in front of congress when they take over and make him answer more “I don’t remember” questions and humiliate him again. The people of this country deserve to know how corrupt the IC is. Of course, that would mean the repubs actually want this info to get out.
“We’ve moved on from that. The country is in a different place, now”
Response I received from a libtard, TDS inflicted associate
when I brought this exact topic up today.
Mueller would have dodged the questions regardless of Barr and Durham.
Although widely reported as such, Durham was not appointed by Barr. He was appointed by Whitaker while Sessions was still the AG but in recusal on this matter.
I hope this Evil, corrupt POS Mueller gets what he deserves…. They really think you Great Americans are stupid. That fat ass bagpiper is an even bigger, fatter liar than Mueller. These bastards have arrested hundreds of our fellow citizens, and we got Kevin slimesmith. Yay!! How none of these Obama commies have been hunted down like Trump Supporters are, is beyond me.
