Klein: Disclosures Raise Questions About Whether DNC and Clinton Cash Paid Russian Agents Cited in Anti-Trump Dossier

Breitbart:

New York, NY — There are legitimate questions about whether money from the Hillary Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee (DNC) found its way into the hands of former and possibly current members of the Russian government as well as the Kremlin’s intelligence services cited as “sources” in the infamous, largely discredited 35-page dossier on President Donald Trump.

The questions follow the disclosure that the DNC and Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign funded research utilized in the anti-Trump dossier.

It also follows a previous disclosure from former acting CIA Director Michael Morell, who currently works at the Hillary Clinton-tied Beacon Global Strategies LLC, who revealed that he “learned” dossier author Christopher Steele paid some of the purported sources cited in the dossier.

The Washington Post last Tuesday reported that in April 2016, attorney Marc E. Elias and his law firm, Perkins Coie, retained Fusion GPS to conduct the questionable research on behalf of both the Clinton campaign and the DNC. Through Perkins Coie, Clinton’s campaign and the DNC continued to fund Fusion GPS until October 2016, days before Election Day, the Post reported.

Fusion GPS went on to hire Steele, a former intelligence agent, to do the purported research. Steele later conceded in court documents that part of his work still needed to be verified.

While it is not clear how much the Clinton campaign or the DNC paid Fusion GPS, the UK Independent, citing campaign finance records, reported that the Clinton campaign doled out $5.6 million to Perkins Coie from June 2015 to December 2016. Records show that since November 2015, the DNC paid the law firm $3.6 million in “legal and compliance consulting.” 

Morell previously disclosed that he “learned” Steele paid some of the “sources” quoted in the dossier.  read more

  1. You’ve got to give President Donald J Trump a lot of credit. In spite of the idiotic carnival atmosphere concocted by the left in year one of his presidency, thepeoes’ agenda keeps advancing unabated.

  2. “It’s not the natural of the evidence, it’s the seriousness of the charge” only applies to Republicans. You could have a video of a Democrat committing a serious crime and nothing would happen, except for maybe Trey Gowdy huffing and puffing in some hearing but not doing anything meaningful.

  3. What I am most concerned about, is that this dossier of pure fiction, was used by the Obama Administration to obtain the FISA warrants, that were then used to spy on the campaign. This is so much nastier than Watergate…

    Btw, has anyone heard from ol’ Jug Ears, about there not being a ‘smidgen of corruption’?
