DNC Official Shared Political Intel With Turkish Government Officials
2016-12-08
[Daily Caller] A Turkish-American businessman who is head of the Democratic National Committee's Heritage Council claimed to have paid a former GOP congressman to write a pro-Turkey op-ed last year and also provided secret updates on his own political activities to members of Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdogan's inner circle, newly released emails reveal.

The businessman, Murat Guzel, was also interviewed by the FBI earlier this year along with several Turkish nationals linked to its government, other emails indicate.
Obviously, Director Comey's FBI could find no 'intent' of a foreign government or it's operatives to enfluence political outcomes.
Probably looking for Gulenists.
The bomshell revelations come from the hacked email account of Berat Albayrak, Turkey's energy minister and Erdogan's son-in-law. The emails, which number more than 57,000, were originally released by a hacker collective called RedHack, but they received little attention in the American press until they were published on Monday by WikiLeaks.
'Scant attention' you say? Sort of SOP for the 'American press' is it not ?
The documents, almost all of which are in Turkish, shed light into many secret activities between Erdogan's government and U.S.-based operatives working to further Turkey's agenda.

#1  Found at this (Citizens Against Special Interest) link is a piece written by Congressman Matt Cartwright in support of Fethullah Gulen. Apparently Guzel's contributions to the Cartwright political campaign fell on deaf ears. Guzel's rather lengthy 'I. B. Butthurt' retort is found at the bottom.

Special note: HRC wears Goldfinger mindworm pantsuit in graphic.
