I bet you John Brennan was involved. What a disgrace to America these communists traitors....Clinton, Clapper,Hayden,Brennan .....


"Vladimir Putin made a bombshell claim during Monday's joint press conference with President Trump in Helsinki, Finland, when the Russian President said some $400 million in illegally earned profits was funneled to the Clinton campaign by associates of American-born British financier Bill Browder - at one time the largest foreign portfolio investors in Russia. The scheme involved members of the U.S. intelligence community, said Putin, who he said "accompanied and guided these transactions."

Browder made billions in Russia during the 90's. In December, a Moscow court sentenced Browder in absentia to nine years in prison for tax fraud, while he was also found guilty of tax evasion in a separate 2013 case. Putin accused Browder's associates of illegally earning over than $1.5 billion without paying Russian taxes, before sending $400 million to Clinton.

After offering to allow special counsel Robert Mueller's team to come to Russia for their investigation - as long as there was a reciprocal arrangement for Russian intelligence to investigate in the U.S., Putin said this:

For instance, we can bring up Mr. Browder, in this particular case. Business associates of Mr. Browder have earned over $1.5 billion in Russia and never paid any taxes neither in Russia or the United States and yet the money escaped the country. They were transferred to the United States. They sent [a] huge amount of money, $400,000,000, as a contribution to the campaign of Hillary Clinton. Well that’s their personal case.

It might have been legal, the contribution itself but the way the money was earned was illegal. So we have solid reason to believe that some [US] intelligence officers accompanied and guided these transactions. So we have an interest in questioning them."

William Browder is again in the news recently in connection with testimony related to Russiagate. On December 16th Senator Diane Feinstein of the Senate Judiciary Committee released the transcript of the testimony provided by Glenn Simpson, founder of Fusion GPS. According to James Carden, Browder was mentioned 50 times, but the repeated citations apparently did not merit inclusion in media coverage of the story by the New York Times, Washington Post and Politico.

Fusion GPS, which was involved in the research producing the Steele Dossier used to discredit Donald Trump, was also retained to provide investigative services relating to a lawsuit in New York City involving a Russian company called Prevezon. As information provided by Browder was the basis of the lawsuit, his company and business practices while in Russia became part of the investigation. Simmons maintained that Browder proved to be somewhat evasive and his accounts of his activities were inconsistent. He claimed never to visit the United States and not own property or do business there, all of which were untrue, to include his ownership through a shell company of a $10 million house in Aspen Colorado. He repeatedly ran away, literally, from attempts to subpoena him so he would have to testify under oath.

Per Simmons, in Russia, Browder used shell companies locally and also worldwide to avoid taxes and conceal ownership, suggesting that he was likely one of many corrupt businessmen operating in what was a wild west business environment.

Maybe Vlad is just stirring shite; maybe he isn’t.

We already know CGI was receiving donations from a lot of, shall we say, questionable sources. That makes the charge worth at least a cursory looking into.

German crickets. This has been brought up and discussed numerous times.....

While I hate Billary with every fiber of my being, much like the BM investigation, I don’t believe this allegation until I get some facts.

I find it hard to believe that with the negative BS he’s had from Russia since being removed, that this evil empire would allow this to happen under their noses.

Yeah, let’s trust our new best friend who wants to rip this country apart! Even if this is true, I demand another source. All Putin wants is to destroy Western Civilization, so unlike the vast majority of this board, I am not dumb enough to oblige him.

I think most would agree with this.

There should be an investigation, a real investigation. Not like the one headed up by Strzok.

You shouldn’t. You should investigate and determine the truth of the matter. Not hold a kangaroo court and try someone through the media.

Because he’s the Pussy Grabber’s new best friend. That’s as much as these mouth breathers think it through.

The media’s gag order, including Fox News, on the $400 mil is rather nefarious.

This calls for a special prosecutor to be appointed. The seriousness of the allegation demands investigation.

...because unfortunately for the US, Putin is more credible than HRC, Podesta, Muller, Strock,McCabe, Comey, Clapper, Brennan, and our boy RR all combined.

$400M is too much.

Putin should have gone with $40M or some more believable number.

Or spread the number out to Democrats as a whole.

Hillary only raised $1.2B for the whole election. It’s not believable that her and Trump would’ve raised basically the same amounts without the deep state contributions.
