Gowdy: FBI acted properly with use of informant during 2016 campaign

The formal letter opening the investigation was dated at the end of the month, Halper met with Page and Papadopolous before then.

Quit making stupid arguments.

What the **** do you think the House Intel committee has tried to subpoena unredacted? The origination document laying out the rationale for the investigation .

What's thoroughly stupid is thinking the FBI can just investigate whoever and whatever they want without documented reason.

Thanks for sharing that.
Did you know that Mifsud told Papadopoulos about the emails in April.
So even if Halper were to have mentioned them again, that cat was already out of the bag.
I do wonder if your have mixt up Mifsud with Halper.

So since Mifsud did this "bad thing" in April [and since you have probably mixt Mifsud up with Halper on this count], do you still blame Halper?


Halper was sent to have conversations with Trumpco.
Based on the reports from Trumpco, all Halper did was have some conversations.


"Keeping tabs"?
Do you mean that Halper was tracking the movements of Trumpco?
Or do you mean that Halper sent some emails and had some meetings?
Did Mifsud mention them to both Page and Papadopolous? Why was it important enough for Halper to mention it as well?

You keep acting like Halper was having normal meetings and doing nothing wrong, if that's so why was he sent by the FBI?

I don't pretend to have all the answers but I am wanting to have more answers.

You keep saying "official", Crossfire (2016) was "official", ONDI (2016) was "official", Mueller's (2017) was "official". You are NOT making a point.Um, he was part of Crossfire (2016), so again, you have nothing backing your claim.

And the price of tea in China is going up....SO WHAT?

PS...Mifsud was not an FBI informant, he was a Russian agent, so I don't know why you lumped him in with Halper.
Mifsud is supposed to look like a Russian asset. https://www.bbc.com/news/amp/world-us-canada-43488581

He's not he's a western asset. https://www.realclearinvestigations.com/articles/2018/05/26/the_maltese_phantom_of_russiagate_.html

Better read up, your absence of knowledge is boring me.

When was Crossfire opened? When was the ODNI drafted? Make your points with specific dates to refute the official starting date of the investigation.

I would like to see someone besides you say that Halper told Trumpco about the emails.
Can you provide a reputable link to to support the assertion that Halper told Page about the Russians having emails?

As far as I've heard, meetings and emails are what happened.
Have you heard that something happened besides emails an meetings?
If so, can you share a link to what you've heard?

I don't pretend to have all the answers but I am wanting to have more answers.
Me too.
I'd like to see the evidence that Obama was involved in the decision to send Halper as has been alleged.
I'd like to see evidence that Halper was sent on behalf of Killary's capaign.
I'd like to see evidence that Halper did something illegal [or more unethical than what an undercover cop does]
I may never have a chance if these things do not exist.

This is so stupid, I never made him out to be "western", yer the one that mentioned him in the same breath with Halper. They, Halper and Mifsud, are on opposite teams.

Good grief.

PS...has it gotten through that there were multiple investigations into Russian interference BEFORE the SC?

Tired of hearing you ask for information already given to you.

I never claimed Halper was sent on behalf of the Clinton campaign. Not sure where you get that from. He can do something for political reasons outside of a political campaign.

Again, it was unethical because there was no investigation at the time and no reason to open one until he planted pretext for one.

No. They aren't. I can't make you learn, you didn't read the links. Dismissed.

Halper planted the evidence by having Mifsud tell Papdopulous about the Russians and Hillary's emails?

Oh my, swing # 2.....
When was Crossfire opened?
Comey told me personally "sometime in July 2016".
When was the ODNI drafted?
in January of 2017, meaning it was from intel prior to that date. I already gave you a link referencing that.
Make your points with specific dates to refute the official starting date of the investigation.
go suck an egg, they were all "official".

Halper and Mifsud both talked to Trump campaign members prior to those dates---fail. You may go.

LOL! The FBI's investigation had begun well before Rosenstein's appointment of a special counsel and they had damn good reason to be investigating these people. Another thing while the use of an informant may be one of the less aggressive methods of investigation used by the FBI. It is still nonetheless a very tightly controlled and overseen process.

Then why is there so much trouble gathering the file pertaining it? House subpoena remember?

To be fair you make vague statements without backing them up.

Feel free to explain how Halper planted evidence whenever you feel froggy.

By discussing information the campaign official would not have but would find important and repeat.

yer link on Misfud was inconclusive, there was nothing to learn other than the authors could not pin him down.

All indications are he wasn't a Russian asset. He was made to look like one.

Wrong, Halper met Page in July '16, @ the beginning of Crossfire. You keep trying to tie Misfud to US investigations ...without support. Thats yer deal, deal with it.

Because you don't give that information to the people you are investigating and they know that this beady eyed weasel 'member' of the House will do just that and in matters that pertain to national security the DOJ is on solid ground in wanting to keep that information under wraps.
