The DOJ and FBI Worked With Fusion GPS on “Operation Trump”…. (from Last Refuge) | Eastern North Carolina Now

    TO VIEW THIS MEMO & COURT ORDER from the FISA Court (filed April 26, 2017, and released early May): https://www.scribd.com/document/349542716/Top-Secret-FISA-Court-Order-President-Obama-Spying-on-Political-Enemies

    [This court order from the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISA), found that the National Security Agency, under former President Obama, routinely violated American privacy protections while scouring through overseas intercepts and failed to disclose the extent of the problems until the final days before Donald Trump was elected president last fall. In describing the violations, the FISA court said the illegal searches conducted by the NSA under Obama were "widespread" and created a "very serious Fourth Amendment issue." These new discoveries come from a recently unsealed FISA court document dated April 26, 2017 and center around a hearing dated October 26, 2017, just days before the 2016 election, in which the FISA court apparently learned for the first time of "widespread" and illegal spying on American citizens by the NSA under the Obama administration. However, in its conclusion, the court seemed to believe that there were no 4th amendment violations]


    Notice how it was FBI "private contractors" that were conducting the unauthorized FISA-702 Queries via access to information on FBI storage systems.

    We have been tipped off that one of the FBI contractors in question was, unbelievably, Fusion-GPS. It is almost certain this early 2016 series of FISA-702 compliance violations was the origin of NSA Director Admiral Mike Rogers concern.

    Mike Rogers discovery becomes the impetus for him to request the 2016 full NSA compliance audit of FISA-702 use. It appears Fusion-GPS was the FBI contracted user identified in the final FISA court opinion/ruling on page 83.

    Note the dates from the FISC opinion (above) - As soon as the FBI discovered Mike Rogers was looking at the searches, the FBI discontinued allowing their sub-contractor access to the raw FISA information. Effective April 18th, 2016.

    On April 19th, 2016, the day after the FBI stopped allowing access to the FISA database, the wife of Fusion-GPS founder Glenn Simpson, Mary B Jacoby, went to the White House. White House logs show that she stayed for at least 2 hours.

    After months of prior opposition research, including what appears to be their access to FISA-702(17) "Search Queries" as a sub-contractor for the FBI, the wife of Glenn Simpson (Fusion GPS), Mary B. Jacoby, with years of Russia-angled reporting -including Donald Trump- visits the White House.

    This is April 19th 2016, the day after the FBI, stopped allowing Fusion-GPS access the NSA FISA-702 database. Immediately following this White House visit the Clinton campaign hire Fusion GPS to conduct opposition research on Donald Trump, surrounding Russia?

    [The Tablet] ... Simpson and Jacoby had ID'd Manafort as a world-class sleazeball and they were right. A slick Georgetown Law grad running in GOP circles since the Reagan campaign, Manafort used his talents and connections to get paid by some very bad people. I would only add here that, in my personal experience, journalists are not in the habit of forgetting major stories they've written, especially stories with a character like Manafort at the center.

    So when the Trump campaign named Paul Manafort as its campaign convention manager on March 28, 2016, you can bet that Simpson and Jacoby's eyes lit up. And as it happened, at the exact same time that Trump hired Manafort, Fusion GPS was in negotiations with Perkins Coie, the law firm representing the Clinton campaign and the DNC, to see if there was interest in the firm continuing the opposition research on the Trump campaign they had started for the Washington Free Beacon.

    This timeline is entirely too obvious.

    What plan came from that April 19th,2016 White House meeting? What plan did Mary Jacoby and Glenn Simpson present to use the information they had assembled? How and who would they feed their information to; and how do they best use that 'valuable' information?

    This appears to be where Fusion-GPS contracting with Christopher Steele comes in.

    What happens next?

    Glenn Simpson and Mary Jacoby (Fusion-GPS) hires Nellie Ohr: "Contacted by FOX News, investigators for the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI) confirmed that Nellie H. Ohr, wife of the demoted official, Bruce G. Ohr, worked for the opposition research firm last year. The precise nature of Mrs. Ohr's duties - including whether she worked on the dossier - remains unclear but a review of her published works available online reveals Mrs. Ohr has written extensively on Russia-related subjects. HPSCI staff confirmed to Fox News that she was paid by Fusion GPS through the summer and fall of 2016. " (Reference)

    DOJ Deputy Bruce Ohr and his wife Nellie Ohr had a prior working relationship with Fusion-GPS founder Glenn Simpson. Together they worked on a collaborative CIA Open Source group project surrounding International Organized Crime. To view the full document (Expert Working Group Report on International Organized Crime, June 2010):



Screenshot Below comes from pg. 30 of this document; it lists the "Participants" of the Expert Working Group.


    Keep in mind, AFTER April 18th, 2016, Fusion-GPS knows the NSA compliance division is reviewing all of their FISA-702(17) search "query" activity conducted while contracted by the FBI.

    The Clinton campaign hired Fusion GPS (April 2016). Fusion sub-contracted retired British MI6 agent Christopher Steele to write the opposition research report "The Trump Russia Dossier"; and they hire a former intelligence community colleague, Nellie Ohr.

    Nellie Ohr is a subject matter expert on Russia, speaks Russian, and also is well versed on CIA operations. Nellie Ohr's skills would include how to build or create counterintelligence frameworks to give the appearance of events that may be entirely fabricated.

    Knowing the NSA was reviewing FISA "Queries"; and intellectually accepting the resulting information from those queries was likely part of the framework put together by Glenn Simpson and Mary Jacoby; we discover that GPS employee Nellie Ohr applied for a HAM radio license [May 23rd 2016] (screen grab below). Now this begins to take on additional context.

    Open, traceable, or monitor-able communication, would be a risk. The same FISA-702 surveillance activity, used to gather information on the Trump campaign, could just as easily be used against the 'scheme team.' NSA surveillance could discover information about the people now assembling FISA data into a fraudulent construct. The goal of that construct would be to justify continued counterintelligence operations, by the FBI, toward the Trump campaign.

    The last thing Glenn Simpson, Mary Jacoby, Hillary Clinton, Christopher Steele, or the FBI would want - would be traceable communication networks. Each of these people or entities would know exactly what the monitoring capability of government is.

    Accepting the FBI was utilizing Fusion-GPS as a contractor, there is now an inherent clarity in the relationship between: FBI agent Peter Strzok, Fusion-GPS Glenn Simpson, and 'Russian Dossier' author Christopher Steele. They are all on the same team.

    The information that Fusion-GPS Glenn Simpson put together from his advanced work on the 'Trump Project', was, in essence, built upon the foundation of the close relationship he already had with the FBI.

    Simpson, Jacoby and Ohr then passed on their information to Christopher Steele who adds his own ingredients to the mix, turns around, and gives the end product back to the FBI. That end product is laundered intelligence now called "The Trump/Russia Dossier."

    It is a circle of intelligence information.

    The FBI turn around and use the "dossier" as the underlying documents and investigative evidence for continued operations against the target of the entire enterprise, candidate Donald Trump. As Peter Strzok would say in August 2016: this is their "insurance policy" per se'.

    "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." -- FBI Agent Peter Strzok to FBI Lawyer Lisa Page

    In October 2016, immediately after the DOJ lawyers formatted the FBI information (Steele Dossier etc.) for a valid FISA application, the head of the NSD, Asst. Attorney General John P Carlin, left his job. His exit came as the NSD and Admiral Rogers informed the FISC that frequent unauthorized FISA-702 searches had been conducted. [FISA Court Memo & Order ].

    The FISA court declassified their opinion of the DOJ and FBI conduct, in May of 2017, and that's the way the public discovered the 2016 admissions by the DOJ, FBI and ultimately the compliance department of the NSA.

    Yes, the FBI was working with Christopher Steele through their contractor Fusion-GPS. Yes, the FBI and Clinton Team were, in essence, both paying Christopher Steele for his efforts. The FBI paid Steele via their sub-contractor Fusion-GPS.

    Lastly, when the DOJ/FBI used the Steele Dossier to make their 2016 surveillance activity legal (the October FISA application), they are essentially using the outcome of a process they created themselves in collaboration with both Fusion GPS and the Clinton campaign.


    All research indicates the intelligence information the DOJ and FBI collected via their FISA-702 queries, combined with the intelligence Fusion GPS created in their earlier use of contractor access to FISA-702(17) "about queries", was the intelligence data delivered to Christopher Steele for use in creating "The Russian Dossier."

    Christopher Steele was just laundering intelligence. The Steele "dossier" was then used by the DOJ to gain FISA-702 approvals - which provided retroactive legal cover for the prior campaign surveillance, and also used post-election to create the "Russian Narrative."

    Ten days after the election, November 17th 2016, Admiral Rogers traveled to Trump Tower without telling ODNI James Clapper. Rogers likely informs President-elect Trump of the prior surveillance activity by the FBI and DOJ, including the likelihood that all of Trump Tower's email and phone communication were reviewed within the FISA-702 abuse.

    •    On November 17th, 2016, NSA Director Admiral Mike Rogers went to see President-Elect Donald Trump in Trump Tower, New York. -SEE HERE- Director Rogers never told his boss DNI, James Clapper.

    •    On November 18th, 2016, the Trump Transition Team announced they were moving all transition activity to Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, New Jersey. -SEE HERE- Where they interviewed and discussed the most sensitive positions to fill. Defense, State, CIA, ODNI. The transition team was set up in Trump Tower. The very next day, November 18th 2016, Trump moves the entire transition team to Bedminister New Jersey.

    •    Ultimately, the people within all of these unlawful intercepts of information is what Devin Nunes discovered when he looked at the "unmasking requests" which were a result of those FISA 702(17) collections on Team Trump. That's why Devin Nunes was so stunned at what he saw in February and March 2017.

    The ENTIRE SYSTEM of FISA-702 surveillance and data collection was weaponized against a political campaign. The DOJ and FBI used the FISA Court to gain access to Trump data, and simultaneously justify earlier FISA "queries" by their contractor, Fusion GPS. FISA-702 queries were used to gather information on the Trump campaign which later became FBI counterintelligence surveillance on the officials therein.

Core Democrats cannot help themselves. They are wholly without principles and when it get real, like right now, everyone of them that tows the Liberal /Socialist line just come off as egregiously pathetic.

There is no one Democrat politician that is suited to be president. 8 full years showed us that.

I have had some experience with database technology and one of the first keys is to populate the data with as much information as possible. The 'QUERY SEARCH' will take of separating the wheat from the chaff. Using the advanced search of Beaufort County Now, I got these results all of which are post by By Alex J. Ortolano and despite my best efforts not one by Bobby Tony.

Thank God for the Republic. After the most corrupt president in the history of the United States, dragging the Rule of Law through the mud, this is a welcome relief.

Well said B.T.

This is serious business, and it should not end until it is finished, and there will be some time hence before the finishing.

Thanks for providing the context of an age-old problem ever since we humans have been on earth. I doubt that there has ever been an instance where having the capability to use tools was not abused by some against others. Society and governments are formed based on a simple concept that "mores and laws" will be followed by the majority of participants.

Technology has increasingly made the tools more accessible to more people. In the process, we may have approached the point where the intersection between Privacy & Appropriateness has begun to fray. It may be inevitable that our current society has become so polarized that the end justifies the means. Like Guns, tools are only as useful as the people who use them, but the old adage about everything looks like a nail when you have a hammer in your hand may be more accurate than ever. If everyone looks like a crook, racist or colluder, then any means is justifiable to the self-appointed or elected guardians.

"When mores are sufficient, laws are unnecessary; when mores are insufficient, laws are unenforceable."----- Emile Durkeim

Nancy "Nitwit" Pelosi accuses the Republican Memo as a lie written by liars. There is still no confirmed report as to whether she has read the report as of yet.
