'Crossfire Hurricane' not dead - FBI Unit Responsible for Raid on Mar-a-Lago Also Behind Russiagate Hoax
2022-08-20
[PJ] If you thought the details of the raid on Mar-a-Lago couldn’t get shadier, you were wrong. Donald Trump has said from the beginning that the raid was another hoax and part of the original witchhunt.

Looks like he was right. The FBI division overseeing the investigation of his Trump’s handling of classified material just so happens to be the focus of Special Counsel John Durham’s investigation of FBI abuses during the Russigate probe.

"The FBI’s nine-hour, 30-agent raid of the former president’s Florida estate is part of a counterintelligence case run out of Washington—not Miami, as has been widely reported—according to FBI case documents and sources with knowledge of the matter," reports the Epoch Times. "The bureau’s counterintelligence division led the 2016—2017 Russia ’collusion’ investigation of Trump, codenamed ’Crossfire Hurricane.'"

Peter Strozk, who lead Crossfire Hurricane, was fired and is no longer there, but "several members of his team remain working in the counterintelligence unit, the sources say, even though they are under active investigation by both Durham and the bureau’s disciplinary arm, the Office of Professional Responsibility."

Strozk infamously told fellow FBI official Lisa Page in texts that the Russia probe was an "insurance policy" in case Trump got elected.

#4  It is encouraging to know that they have assigned their A Team and that said A Team has a extended track record of failing.
