I found evidence of COLLUSION between Trump and Putin Lol

Putin thanks Trump for CIA tip he says stopped bomb plot

MOSCOW (AP) — Russian President Vladimir Putin telephoned U.S. President Donald Trump Sunday to thank him for a CIA tip that helped thwart a series of bombings in St. Petersburg, the Kremlin and the White House said.
During the call, the two leaders’ second in three days, Putin expressed gratitude for the CIA information. The Kremlin said it led Russia’s top domestic security agency to a group of suspects that planned to bomb St. Petersburg’s Kazan Cathedral and other crowded sites this weekend.
“The information received from the CIA proved sufficient to find and detain the criminal suspects,” the Kremlin said.
The White House said in its readout of the conversation that “based on the information the United States provided, Russian authorities were able to capture the terrorists just prior to an attack that could have killed large numbers of people.”
The White House added that Putin extended his thanks and congratulations to CIA Director Mike Pompeo and the entire agency. Trump then called Pompeo “to congratulate him, his very talented people, and the entire intelligence community on a job well done!”
“President Trump appreciated the call and told President Putin that he and the entire United States intelligence community were pleased to have helped save so many lives,” the White House said in its statement.
“President Trump stressed the importance of intelligence cooperation to defeat terrorists wherever they may be. Both leaders agreed that this serves as an example of the positive things that can occur when our countries work together.”

The Kremlin said Putin assured Trump that “if the Russian intelligence agencies receive information about potential terror threats against the United States and its citizens, they will immediately hand it over to their U.S. counterparts via their communications channels.”
The CIA’s tip to Russia comes even as Russia-U.S. ties have plunged to their lowest level since the Cold War era — first over Russia’s annexation of Crimea and support for pro-Russia separatists in Ukraine, more recently over allegations that Moscow interfered in the U.S. presidential election to help Trump.
While Russian officials have said the two countries were continuing to exchange some terror-related intelligence, Sunday’s statement from the Kremlin was Russia’s first public assertion that information from the United States helped prevent an attack.

The conversation was the second between the Russian and U.S. presidents since Thursday, when Trump thanked Putin for his remarks “acknowledging America’s strong economic performance,” according to the White House.
During the first call, they also discussed during ways to work together to address North Korea’s nuclear and ballistic weapons program, the White House said.
The Federal Security Service, or FSB, announced Friday that seven suspected followers of the Islamic State group had been arrested for allegedly planning to carry out terror attacks in St. Petersburg this weekend.
The agency said the suspects were plotting a suicide bombing in a church and a series of other explosions in the city’s busiest areas this coming weekend on IS orders. It said a search of a St. Petersburg apartment found explosives, automatic weapons and extremist literature.
Russian news reports said that Kazan Cathedral, a landmark 19th century Russian Orthodox church on St. Petersburg’s central Nevsky Prospect, was the prime target.
If the suspects succeeded in bombing the cathedral, it would have been the first major attack on a Russian Orthodox Church by Islamic terrorists, who have blown up apartment buildings, passenger planes and transport facilities in Russia.
In April, a suicide bombing in the St. Petersburg’s subway left 16 dead and wounded more than 50.
Russian TV stations have aired footage daily since Friday of the suspects in the foiled attacks being apprehended and questioned. One segment showed FSB operatives outside a St. Petersburg apartment building detaining a suspect, who appeared later saying he was told to prepare homemade bombs rigged with shrapnel.

“My job was to make explosives, put it in bottles and attach pieces of shrapnel,” the suspect, identified by Russian media as 18-year old Yevgeny Yefimov, said in the footage released by the FSB.
Several other suspects came from mostly Muslim regions in Russia’s volatile North Caucasus, and one man was from the ex-Soviet nation of Tajikistan that borders Afghanistan.
The TV reports included footage of a metal container, which the suspects used as a laboratory for making explosives, according to the FSB. Another video showed operatives breaking the doors and raiding an apartment used by other suspects.
Last week, the FSB said it also arrested several IS-linked suspects in Moscow, where they allegedly were plotting a series of suicide bombings to coincide with New Year’s celebrations.
The latest calls between Putin and Trump came after the Russian leader praised his U.S. counterpart during a marathon news conference on Thursday.
Putin hailed Trump’s achievements, saying that global markets have demonstrated investors’ confidence in Trump’s economic policies. He said he hoped the U.S. president would be able to follow through on his campaign promises to improve ties with Russia despite pressure from his political foes at home.
During the news conference, Putin also reaffirmed his multiple denials of meddling in the 2016 U.S. presidential election and argued that the U.S. is only hurting itself with investigations of alleged collusion between Trump and Russia. The allegations were “invented” by Trump’s foes to undermine his legitimacy, Putin said.

Alexei Chepa, a deputy head of the foreign affairs committee in the lower house of Russia’s parliament, hailed the CIA tip as a “step toward cooperation.”
“The more such actions we have, the better it will be for both our countries,” Chepa told the state RIA Novosti news agency.

Mueller’s Crying Like A Baby After Young GOP Congresswoman Shreds Liar Comey Under Oath

No one would have imagined that a young GOP congresswoman would be the utter downfall of heavyweights like former FBI Director James Comey and his best buddy Special Counsel Robert Mueller. But, that’s exactly what just happened, and now, we have all the evidence.

You’ll be completely shocked by Rep. Elise Stefanik, who shredded Comey under oath. It’s curtains for the traitors in the FBI and DOJ trying to oust President Donald Trump. This is huge.

In the past few weeks, thanks to some revealing information amid the various investigations coming out of the Washington, D.C., swamp, we have been introduced to some previously unknown people.

Names like FBI Agent Peter Strzok, his mistress FBI Attorney Lisa Page, their ideological comrade Asst FBI Director Andrew McCabe, along with DOJ Deputy Bruce Ohr, and his wife, Fusion-GPS contract employee Nellie Ohr. These are a few of the recent names that have hit the headlines as a result of ongoing investigations into the politicization of the FBI and DOJ. But, there’s one name conspicuously absent, FBI Director of Counterintelligence, Bill Priestap.

The Conservative Treehouse reports, “When you understand how central Bill Priestap is to the entire 2016/2017 ‘Russian Conspiracy Operation,’ the absence of his name, amid all others, creates a curiosity. It seems rather unfathomable his name has not been a part of any of the recent story-lines.”

As head of the FBI Counterintelligence operation, Bill Priestap is Peter Strzok’s boss. You likely remember Strzok; he’s the rabid Trump-hater who was recently outed as the guy who helped launch the bogus “Trump-Russia” investigation at the FBI back in July 2016.

He was also caught texting his mistress, FBI Attorney Lisa Page, a cryptic message in August 2016 that read, “I want to believe the path you threw out for consideration in Andy’s office that there’s no way he gets elected – but I’m afraid we can’t take that risk. It’s like an insurance policy in the unlikely event you die before you’re 40.”

We now know that “insurance policy” was the bogus “Trump-Russia” investigation that Priestap, as Strzok’s boss, illegally initiated. It was started by this cabal, and they tried to cover it up as long as they could. The thinking was, just in case Trump wins, we will have this “Russia matter” to screw Trump and get him impeached or he’ll have to resign.

If Hillary won, which is what they all thought would happen, this bogus “Trump-Russia” investigation would just disappear into thin air, and here’s where it gets really juicy. How do we know they plotted to make sure it could just disappear into thin air? Because former FBI Director James Comey, Bill Priestap’s boss and the number one guy at the FBI back then, got caught dead to rights by young GOP Congresswoman Elise Stefanik.

In March 2017, Comey had to “try” to explain something that he never saw coming. The young GOP congresswoman from New York, Elise Stefanik, outsmarted Comey, and now, all the pieces are fitting together. The FBI must, and I mean must, report all open investigations to the House Intel Committee, except Comey never reported this whopper of an investigation to the gang of eight, until he had no choice.

Comey waited until he absolutely had to report it, after he was called to answer before the House Intel Committee in March 2017. This is the first anyone hears about this totally strange investigation, which was claiming Trump’s campaign was under investigation for possible “Russia collusion.”

The Conservative Treehouse reports, “On March 20th, 2017 congressional testimony, James Comey was asked why the FBI Director did not inform congressional oversight about the counterintelligence operation [Trump-Russia] that began in July 2016. FBI Director Comey said he did not tell congressional oversight he was investigating presidential candidate Donald Trump because the Director of Counterintelligence [Bill Priestap] suggested he not do so.”

Of course, this is Comey passing the buck and incriminating his subordinate Bill Priestap, as he knows he is caught redhanded. Watch the first three minutes of video as he squirms in his seat as Rep. Stefanik “drills down” on Comey, and he can’t explain why the FBI refused to report this very important investigation to Congress. They thought Hillary would win, so they decided to risk not reporting it, and then, no one would ever need to know about their “insurance policy.” Except, Trump won.

Democrats go it alone on Russia probe after partisan breakdowns

Democrats are striking out on their own this week over all but one of the congressional investigations into Russian meddling, independently releasing reports and transcripts, and attacking Republicans they accuse of intentionally undermining active probes in deference to President Trump.

Senior Democratic officials in the Senate, frustrated by what they consider a Republican campaign to discredit the law enforcement and intelligence agencies investigating the president, cleared their members to release the interview transcript of one of the Russia investigation's most sensitive witnesses and, separately, to publish a report detailing the disinformation and intimidation tactics the Kremlin deploys against democracies globally.
In the House, Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) endorsed a letter sent Tuesday to Speaker Paul D. Ryan (R-Wis.), accusing him of orchestrating a campaign to bury a congressional probe into Trump's alleged ties to the Russian government and defame the agencies investigating those matters.

Throughout the Capitol, partisan divisions have engulfed the Russia investigations, transforming what were supposed to be nonpartisan probes into political flamethrowing competitions, as each side accuses the other of going rogue. And lawmakers on both sides of the aisle are bracing for the partisan sniping to worsen.
"We get political up here pretty quick . . . and we'll fight among ourselves what oversight looks like" at every stage of the investigation, Judiciary Committee member Lindsey O. Graham (R-S.C.) predicted, "as long as there is breath in us all."
On Tuesday, the Senate Judiciary Committee's ranking Democrat, Dianne Feinstein (Calif.), went around committee Chairman Charles E. Grassley (R-Iowa) to publish the transcript of a 10-hour closed-door interview in August with Glenn Simpson, founder of Fusion GPS, the research firm behind a now-famous dossier detailing Trump's alleged Russia ties.
The move earned a rebuke from Grassley, who has been fixated on the dossier and last week urged the Justice Department to investigate possible criminal charges for its author, former British intelligence agent Christopher Steele.
Feinstein said Wednesday that with the transcript's release, "people can make up their own minds" about what materialized during the committee's interview with Simpson, noting that she intended to apologize to Grassley for not notifying him first.
Feinstein also indicated she felt "pressured" to release the transcript but later retracted that statement and dismissed Trump's assertion that her decision was politically motivated.
Increasingly, Democrats see Republicans as dedicating more energy to attacking federal law enforcement than seriously investigating the allegations that have been unearthed. For them, the criminal referral of Steele — who approached the FBI in 2016 over concerns Trump could be blackmailed or compromised, Simpson told the committee — was "a breaking point," according to one congressional aide.
Democrats across Congress charge that the GOP has long since abandoned its commitment to investigate allegations against the president. They say Republicans' focus on the dossier, their continued scrutiny of the FBI's conduct during the Hillary Clinton email probe, their revived interest in how the Justice Department explored the circumstances of a 2010 uranium deal, and recent calls for special counsel Robert S. Mueller III to step down over alleged bias in his team's ranks all are attempts to block for Trump.
The criminal referral for Steele, however, was an unprecedented escalation, aides said — and one that necessitated a direct response.
"The effort plainly is to discredit the investigation before it reaches a potentially incriminating conclusion," said Sen. Richard J. Blumenthal (D-Conn.). "To stop the investigation — but if not stop it, at least demean its credibility before charges are brought."
Although not every Republican condemned Feinstein's decision "to set the record straight" by releasing the Simpson transcript, the move infuriated Grassley, who accused her of undermining the investigation's integrity.
"You want other people to voluntarily comply? And it may make them nervous. You're giving everyone they want to talk to, they know what the questions are going to be," Grassley said. "It weakens our chance of getting information."
Grassley and Graham, who co-authored the letter referring Steele for a criminal inquiry and together have led the Senate charge for a second special counsel to review the FBI's conduct, say the steps panel Republicans have taken are legitimate.
"It's not a distraction to see how the Justice Department used the dossier, how reliable it is, because that goes to the heart of the rule of law," Graham said.
Several House committees have launched similar probes in recent months, fueling an already bitter feud among leading Democrats and Republicans over the pace and direction of the House Intelligence Committee's Russia investigation. Panel Republicans, led by chairman Devin Nunes (R-Calif.), are developing what's been characterized as a "corruption" report about FBI officials involved in the Russia probe, while Democrats are writing a report of their own about what they see as GOP efforts to undercut and prematurely shutter the investigation.
House Democrats are incensed that the committee's splintering probe is being eclipsed by new GOP-led investigations into the FBI's conduct during the Clinton email scandal.
"House Republicans have chosen to put President Trump ahead of our national interests," a group of six Democratic committee ranking members wrote to Ryan this week, suggesting he and other GOP leaders "have blocked, stonewalled, and rejected our basic requests to investigate, hold public hearings, and advance legislation" related to Russian meddling in the 2016 U.S. elections.
In response, Ryan spokeswoman AshLee Strong said it "would be irresponsible" not to "put forward the results of the investigation sooner rather than later," in keeping with the goal of "identifying Russia meddling in our election and preventing it in the future."
Of the three congressional panels investigating the president and Russia, only the Senate Intelligence Committee appears to have maintained bipartisan calm. Panel heads Sens. Richard Burr (R-N.C.) and Mark R. Warner (D-Va.) continue to cooperate as they interview witnesses. But it is unclear whether their investigation will conclude soon enough to serve as a cautionary lesson for future election cycles, which experts believe will be as susceptible to foreign meddling as the 2016 presidential contest was.
That was the motivation behind a decision from Democrats on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee to weigh in this week as well, publishing a 200-plus page report on how Russia deploys an "asymmetric arsenal" of tactics to interfere, disinform, and compromise the integrity of democracies that challenge its interests or global standing.
The committee has not been investigating allegations concerning the president or anomalies of the 2016 U.S. elections. But panel Democrats — who failed to bring along any GOP support for their report in the year since the ranking Democrat, Sen. Benjamin L. Cardin (D), commissioned it — say it is vital that Trump heed their warnings to deter Russians from meddling in upcoming elections in 2018 and 2020.
"President Trump must be clear-eyed about the Russian threat, take action to strengthen our government's response and our institutions, and — as have other presidents in times of crisis — mobilize our country and work with an international coalition to counter the threat and assert our values," Cardin said.
It is unclear whether the report, which relies on public information, will have much impact beyond buttressing the historical record of Russian aggression against the West. Committee aides stressed that it is the first government report to comprehensively lay out the threat's size and scope.
A spokesman for the committee chairman, Sen. Bob Corker (R-Tenn.), acknowledged he had received a copy but said "no further full committee activity is planned at this time."

BREAKING: FIRST CLINTON FOUNDATION URANIUM INDICTMENT.
TRUCKING EXEC INDICTED 11 COUNTS FOR BRIBERY

The former co-president of a Maryland transportation company that moved to nuclear materials across the United States is accused of bribing an official at a subsidiary of Russia’s State Atomic Energy Corp.

Mark Lambert, 54, of Mount Airy, Maryland, was charged in an 11-count indictment with charges ranging from violating the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act to wire fraud.

The charges were unsealed Friday by the Department of Justice.

Lambert conspired to bribe Vadim Mikerin, a Russian official at JSC Techsnabexport, the sole supplier and exporter of Russian uranium. It serves nuclear power companies worldwide. The goal, the Justice Department alleges, was to secure new contracts with JSC Techsnabexport.

At least as early as 2009 and continuing through October 2014, Lambert conspired with others at his company to make corrupt and fraudulent bribery and kickback payments to offshore bank accounts connected to Mikerin, the Justice Department alleges. In order to conceal the bribes, Lambert and others prepared fake invoices, according to the indictment.

The indictment also alleges that Lambert and others, who were not named in the Justice Department’s announcement, to overbill JSC Techsnabexport by building the cost of the payments into their invoices.

In June 2015, Lambert’s co-president Daren Condrey pleaded guilty to conspiracy to violate the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and commit wire fraud. Mikerin pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit money laundering involving violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.

Mikerin is currently serving a 48-month prison sentence and Condrey is awaiting sentencing.

The case is being investigated by the Department of Energy’s Office of Inspector General and the FBI. Law enforcement officials in Switzerland, Latvia and Cyprus assisted with the investigation, the Justice Department said.
