Newly declassified FBI memos detail concerns, payments to Russia collusion informant

Just the News

Akey FBI informant in the widely-debunked Russia collusion case was paid nearly $1.2 million over three decades, was motivated in part by “monetary compensation,” and continued snitching even after agents concluded he told them an inaccurate story about future Trump National Security Advisor Mike Flynn, newly declassified documents show.

The nearly 700 pages of once-secret documents, obtained by Just the News, were recently turned over by FBI Director Kash Patel to House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan after President Donald Trump ordered them declassified at the start of his second administration.

They provide the most extensive portrait yet of former FBI informant Stefan Halper, a Pentagon consultant and academic who, along with retired British intelligence agent Christopher Steele, was used by bureau agents to build the Crossfire Hurricane case against Trump and his advisers during the end of the 2016 election and the beginning of Trump’s first term in office. more

  1. Anybody who ran this, or managed it, or who cast a shadow on this needs to spend the next few decades inside a federal penitentiary if not swing from a gallows.

  2. When it comes to getting paid for making spy shit up, everybody’s lifetime reading list should include Our Man in Havana by Graham Greene.

    There was a worthwhile movie made of the book, too. Alec Guiness, Ernie Kovacs, Maureen O’Hara, Noël Coward.

  3. Uncle Al, you can’t go wrong with Alec Guinness AND Ernie Kovacs!! Saw an Alec Guinness interview where he’d described the goings on at the hotel where the cast was staying and Mr. Guinness suggested that maybe the doors should be shut cause you never knew who’d turn up to investigate. Mr. Kovacs assured him that you could do just about anything as long as the door was wide open , ha !

  4. SNS, and we can’t forget Seth Rich! There’s something way fishy about this story too. DOJ said they would release the files on March 10th. Now they say they will not be released.
