More evidence of Team Hillary’s fabrication of the Russian collusion hoax
The release of the appendix to the John Durham report continues the destruction of claims that Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign “colluded” with the Russians. Team Hillary had no direct evidence of the collusion, so they filtered select information to publications, enough to deceive the audience. Hillary Clinton approved the false narrative regarding Trump and Russians colluding to get a specific election outcome. The reality was that Russia expected Hillary to win and were holding dirt on her for leverage during her presidency.
From Fox News:
“Two of the apparently hacked emails appear to have originated from the Open Society Foundations,” the appendix states, noting that the purported author of these emails was Leonard Benardo, who was the regional director for Eurasia at the Open Society Foundations.
“During the first stage of the campaign, due to lack of direct evidence, it was decided to disseminate the necessary information through the FBI-affiliated…technical structures… in particular, the Crowdstrike and ThreatConnect companies, from where the information would then be disseminated through leading U.S. publications,” Benardo reportedly wrote in an email, per the appendix.
“The media analysis on the DNC hacking appears solid …. Julie (Clinton Campaign Advisor) says it will be a long-term affair to demonize Putin and Trump. Now it is good for a post-convention bounce,” Benardo allegedly wrote, per the appendix. “Later the FBI will put more oil into the fire.”
Another email reportedly from Benardo states: “HRC (Hillary Rodham Clinton) approved Julie’s idea about Trump and Russian hackers hampering U.S. elections.”
“This should distract people from her own missing email, especially if the affair goes to the Olympic level,” Benardo continued, per the annex. “The point is making the Russian play a U.S. domestic issue. Say something like a critical infrastructure threat for the election to feel manic since both POTUS and VPOTUS have acknowledge the fact IC would speed up searching for evidence that is regrettably still unavailable.”
Crossfire Hurricane, the FBI’s Trump–Russia investigation, was opened just several days later, on July 31, 2016.
The appendix reveals that Durham’s team interviewed numerous FBI personnel involved in the Crossfire Hurricane probe. Durham said those he interviewed believed the Benardo emails to be “likely authentic.”
Durham’s appendix states that the Clinton campaign “might have wanted or expected the FBI or other agencies to aid that effort (“put more oil into the fire”) by commencing a formal investigation of the DNC hack.”

The shit is hitting the fan but I don’t think it will go anywhere
We need to run a story on this lying sack of garbage
He definitely a turd .
But they killing the babies he says…..
Any chance our resident mythical squid-loving troll to show up here? Asking the Magic 8 Ball.
Someone has to remind us that we’re all in a cult, might as well be him.
Here is a quote IT WANST A HOAX THE STEELE DOSSIER WAS REAL!!! Don’t you fucking people know anything? You are just jealous of my success in life and superior education and intellect. But one last time, let me explain it before I leave forever and am never coming back:Fog everywhere. Fog up the river, where it flows among green alts and meadows; fog down the river, where it rolls deified among the tiers of shipping and the waterside pollutions of a great (and dirty) city. Fog on the Essex marshes, fog on the Kentish heights. Fog creeping into the cabooses of collier-brigs; fog lying out on the yards and hovering in the rigging of great ships; fog drooping on the gunwales of barges and small boats. Fog in the eyes and throats of ancient Greenwich pensioners, wheezing by the firesides of their wards; fog in the stem and bowl of the afternoon pipe of the wrathful skipper, fog cruelly pinching the toes and fingers of his shivering little apprentice boy on deck. Chance people on the bridges peeping over the parapets into a nether sky of fog, with fog all round them, as if they were up in a balloon and hanging in the misty clouds.Those handsome Moors all in white and turbans like kings asking you to sit down in their little bit of a shop and Ronda with the old windows of the posadas 2 glancing eyes a lattice hid for her lover to kiss the iron and the wineshops half open at night and the castanets with his lamp and O that awful deep down torrent O and the sea the sea crimson sometimes like fire and the glorious sunsets and the fig trees in the Alameda gardens yes and all the queer little streets and the pink and blue and yellow houses and the rose gardens and the jessamine and geraniums and cactuses and Gibraltar as a girl where I was a Flower of the mountain yes when I put the rose in my hair like the Andalusian girls used yes and how he kissed… Read more »
I have no idea what any of that means, but I think I’m gonna have nightmares tonight.
Just a peek into one of the most brilliant minds of our generation.
Who, Abby Normal?
Democraps make up much of the Swamp:
Justine Turdeau was a visitor?
I didn’t know Epstein trafficked boys and ‘ Theys ‘
I’ve met her.
I haven’t even read it yet. Standing by to keep my 1st on WOT and it’s too long.
It could cause one to develop irrational fear of fog.
1+1=5?????
If you want it to.
Nah, I don’t want it to. But that’s the conclusion I drew from what 5JC wrote.
What cha smokin’ dawg?
You must be referring to the code name of that cross between a frog and a giant squid or cuttlefish who is a dedicated Marxist agent provocateur/party propagandist.
Yes.
Hmm, who could that be?
WHERE is that thing?
Nothing but talk and manufactured outrage.
Nothing will come of it because there is no justice or accountability in the swamp.
It was a couple hundred thousand bucks of Russian-backed Facebook ads that swung the 2016 election. Sure, whatever the MSM says
Leonard Bernardo might want to make sure his life insurance covers suicide.
It’s not like the DNC chair was discussing information she was briefed on in a SCIF with the C-suite of Open Society [Soros] and I’m very glad the 0bummer admin, and their deep state cronies, didn’t manufacture or withhold evidence presented to FISA to spy on the leading opposition candidate.
I’m glad that DNC/OSF conversation wasn’t 3 month prior to the beginning of Op Crosswire Hurrican’t, and didn’t outline the process to start the investigation at all.
So glad none of this was coordinated by a merger of state, nonprofit, and corporate means, to include in-kind donations of airtime on the evening ‘news’.
And I’m tickled pink, purple, and plaid that one of the beneficent arbiters of truth and justice –when he’s not busy threatening the POTUS with sea animals– is still a free man.
G-d bless the empire!
Long live the Patriot Act! May it forever bestow it’s blessings upon America with secret evidence and courts, that will never in any way, ever be abused for political purposes.
Slavery is Freedom!
Arbeit macht Frei! The last thing some people read on their way to those special “showers.”
MSM memo:
“That bitch can’t kill us all!”
And then just as a coincidence, a few days after that meeting in “Andy’s office,” Peter Strzok opened Crossfire Hurricane.
