I don't believe this has been posted.

quote:

U.S. Attorney John Durham reportedly interviewed the Australian diplomat whose tip about George Papadopoulos effectively started the counterintelligence investigation into President Trump's campaign in July 2016.

Alexander Downer, who was Australia's high commissioner to the United Kingdom up until last year, met with Durham's team last month in London and is said to have told investigators he was not part of a conspiratorial plot to undermine Trump, according to the Australian.

Under the supervision of Attorney General William Barr, Durham is conducting an investigation into the origins of the Trump-Russia investigation, examining the conduct of the Justice Department, FBI, and intelligence community. Last month, Durham shifted his administrative review to a criminal investigation that allows his team the power to impanel a grand jury and hand down indictments.

This is the part that always has me wondering. We all know 5eyes helped in lieu of our spooks helping them to throw BREXIT. Why on earth would they ever tell on themselves? Durham would have to have concrete evidence and then it is very very touchy as our allies would be named aiding and abetting sedition of the United States.

Would our govt. ever really go there, or would they hush it as part of National Security?

(Not saying Durham hasn't found anything on team Obama but always wondered this)

Downer cant be that stupid

Durham doesnt ask that question unless he already knows the answer. He is either CYA in the public eye, or has assurances he's protected as long as he remains on Aussie soil. Or I guess there's a long shot he's an unknowing stooge

I wonder if we tapped his wires after the meeting to see who he called and what he said.

Ask the UK gov't to hand over ALL of his texts and phone calls from Jun 2015 to now.
Who told him to have drinks with Pappa D? Why did he want to have drinks with Pappa D? If someone knew Rushia had clinton's emails, why would he think that is a big deal and required him to tell others? Most people already suspected that 5 different foreign gov't had her emails. That info was hardly news.

Bump. This seems significant in light of durham publically disagreeing with IG horowitz

Wasn’t Misfud(sp) the point man to give Pappad the “Russia has dirt on Hillary” and pappad just happened to share the information with Downer who just so happened to record the conversation?
