Last year, John Durham, a special prosecutor for the Department of Justice (DOJ), concluded that the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) should never have opened its investigation of alleged collusion by then-presidential candidate Donald J. Trump and Russia in late July of 2016.
Now, multiple credible sources tell Public and Racket that the United States Intelligence Community (IC), including the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), illegally mobilized foreign intelligence agencies to target Trump advisors long before the summer of 2016.
The new information fills many gaps in our understanding of the Russia collusion hoax and is supported by testimony already in the public record.
You probably remember the obviously-fake cover story that the FBI began the investigation only after a Trump aide mentioned something about the Russians having kompromat on Hillary Clinton, or something. In fact, we've long known the spying operation against Trump began before this.
But now we find out that Brennan told foreign spy agencies to entrap -- or "bump" -- a list of 26 people connected with Trump in hopes of generating a legal pretext to set the US spy forces against him.
Until now, the official story has been that the FBI's investigation began after Australian intelligence officials told US officials that a Trump aide had boasted to an Australian diplomat that Russia had damning material about Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.
In truth, the US IC asked the "Five Eyes" intelligence alliance to surveil Trump's associates and share the intelligence they acquired with US agencies, say sources close to a House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HSPCI) investigation. The Five Eyes nations are the US, UK, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.
After Public and Racket had been told that President Barack Obama's CIA Director, John Brennan, had identified 26 Trump associates for the Five Eyes to target, a source confirmed that the IC had "identified [them] as people to 'bump,' or make contact with or manipulate. They were targets of our own IC and law enforcement -- targets for collection and misinformation."
Trump ordered the folder containing this information to be declassified.
Guess what? The same traitors who ran this illegal FOREIGN spying operation against the PRESIDENT OF THE FUCKING UNITED STATES said "nah bro" and refused to declassify it.
Unknown details about the FBI's investigation of the Trump campaign and raw intelligence related to the IC's surveillance of the Trump campaign are in a 10-inch binder that Trump ordered to be declassified at the very end of his term, sources told Public and Racket.
If the top-secret documents exist proving these charges, they are potentially proof that multiple US intelligence officials broke laws against spying and election interference.
Unelected bureaucrats decided to ignore the proper, legal orders of the elected president. Shellenberger says he'll be covering that story next:

Now back to today's story of High Treason:
CNN, Politico, The Guardian, and others reported in 2017 that the British Government Communications Headquarters (GCHQ), the UK's equivalent of the National Security Agency (NSA), was the "principal whistleblower" in the investigation into the alleged ties between Trump and the Russian government.
"GCHQ first became aware in late 2015 of suspicious 'interactions' between figures connected to Trump and known or suspected Russian agents, a source close to UK intelligence" wrote a team of reporters for The Guardian in April 2017.
This intelligence sharing was supposedly just the result of "incidental collection." Reported The Guardian, "It is understood that GCHQ was at no point carrying out a targeted operation against Trump or his team or proactively seeking information. The alleged conversations were picked up by chance as part of routine surveillance of Russian intelligence assets."
But now, sources say the GCHQ's version of events is false. Instead, the US IC asked its foreign allies to target 26 members of Trump's team, possibly to justify the FBI's investigation.
"They were making contacts and bumping Trump people going back to March 2016," a source close to the investigation said. "They were sending people around the UK, Australia, Italy -- the Mossad in Italy. The MI6 was working at an intelligence school they had set up."
