From the website of the House of Representatives Intelligence Committee:
In 2017 and 2018, the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI) undertook an investigation into Russia’s interference campaign targeting the 2016 U.S. election. The Committee’s investigation came on the heels of an Intelligence Community assessment, which found:
“Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered an influence campaign in 2016 aimed at the US presidential election. Russia’s goals were to undermine public faith in the US democratic process, denigrate Secretary Clinton, and harm her electability and potential presidency. We further assess Putin and the Russian Government developed a clear preference for President-elect Trump.”
Democrats on the Committee affirmed that judgement, as did Special Counsel Robert Mueller, and the bipartisan Senate Intelligence Committee. Throughout its investigation, the Committee uncovered significant evidence of Trump campaign efforts to seek, make use of, and cover up Russian help in the 2016 presidential election. To date, two witnesses have been convicted and sentenced to prison terms for lying and attempting to obstruct the Committee’s investigation.
Ultimately, this pattern of misconduct and deceit continued when President Trump once again sought to coerce a foreign government into providing him illicit assistance with his reelection campaign, this time from Ukraine. For his efforts, President Trump was impeached in the House and became the first ever U.S. President to to receive bipartisan votes to convict in the Senate.
As part of its commitment to transparency, today the Committee is releasing fifty-seven transcripts of witness interviews during the course of the Russia inquiry, as well as additional relevant material, so that every American can see the facts and decide for themselves.
All 57 transcripts can be read here: intelligence.house.gov/…
Witnesses include Felix Sater, Rinat Akhmetshin, Corey Lewandowski, Steve Bannon, Rob Goldstone, Rhona Graff and many other sketchball traitors.
This might explain why Flynn was basically pardoned today, of all days.
Off now to read the transcripts!
Trump’s Putin-led administration is doing all it can to destroy this country, but we will not let it happen.
Cheers.
Update 1 @ 11:57pm EDT:
In the comments, Shockwave relays and gives background on a juicy tidbit in the Sam Clovis transcript:
I’m scanning the Clovis transcript. Most of what he is made to disclose is about his witnessing Trump entourage people talking about Russia connections.
This part of the transcript caught my attention:
[1:07 p.m.]
MR. SWALWELL: Did he ever talk to you in person about Joseph Mifsud?
MR. CLOVIS: I don't recall that at all.
MR. SWALWELL: He mentions Putin's niece. Is that correct?
MR. CLOVIS: Yes.
Putin’s niece? I remember now.
Mysterious Putin 'niece' has a name
“The exact identity of a 'very good-looking' Russian national who told George Papadopoulos she could broker meetings between the Trump camp and Kremlin officials remains an enigma.”
Update 2 @ 5:25am EDT:
Also from the comments, frog belly white finds a noteworthy moment in the Jared Kushner testimony:
I read the Jared Kushner interview and this was interesting, Schiff is asking all the questions.
R. SCHIFF: Have you had any meetings with any Russian Government representatives or Russian nationals or dual Russian-American citizens that are not discussed in your written testimony?
MR. KUSHNER: So I just want to be very clear, if you're saying - you know, my wife has a girlfriend who is Russian and, you know -- and, you know, we go to a kid's birthday party or something like that and we see her. ls that included in that as a Russian contact?
