Report claims FBI sent undercover agents to Trump’s 2016 campaign

(Lauren)

New claims from a whistleblower show that the FBI launched a secret investigation focused on Donald Trump’s campaign as early as 2015, well before the official Russia investigation.

THE WASHINGTON TIMES REPORTS the whistleblower revelation, now under review by the House Judiciary Committee, claiming the FBI targeted Donald Trump’s campaign almost immediately after he announced his candidacy. THE MOVES suggest that then-FBI Director JAMES COMEY ordered undercover agents to infiltrate Trump’s team and report back without proper oversight. THE WHISTLEBLOWER, AN FBI AGENT INVOLVED IN THE INVESTIGATION, SAYS FORMER FBI DIRECTOR JAMES COMEY CREATED A SECRET, OFF-BOOK INVESTIGATION TO GATHER INFORMATION ABOUT TRUMP’S CAMPAIGN, WITHOUT AN OBVIOUS CRIME AS A BASIS.

THE WHISTLEBOOK REPORT DESCRIBES HOW TWO FEMALE UNDERCOVER AGENTS INFILTRATED TRUMP’S TEAM, ALLEGEDLY ACTING AS ‘HONEY PADS’… CLOSE CONTACTS EMBEDDED INTO THE CAMPAIGN TO GATHER INFORMATION. THIS EARLY OPERATION, WHICH WHICH BLOCKER OPERATED, WAS SEPARATE FROM THE CROSSFIRE HURRICANE PROBE WHICH INVESTIGATED POSSIBLE RUSSIAN INTERFERENCE.

The whistleblower further alleges that top FBI officials were involved in overseeing the operation, but that these efforts were hidden from Justice Department oversight.

A REPORTED TARGET OF THIS covert effort was TRUMP CAMPAIGN ADVISOR GEORGE PAPADOPOULOS. PAPADOPOULOS LATER PLED GUILTY OF LYING TO THE FBI, BUT DENIALED THAT THE CAMPAIGN HAD COORDINATED WITH RUSSIAN HACKERS. THE WHISTLEBLOWER CLAIMS THAT THESE REJECTIONS WERE WITHLOOKED FOR IMPORTANT SUPERVISORY APPLICATIONS.

According to the whistleblower, the undercover probe was eventually shut down when the news media obtained the officer’s photo, but those involved were warned never to discuss the operation, even among themselves.

FORMER FBI PERSONNEL CALLED THESE MOVES A MAJOR VIOLATION OF PROTOCOL, IF TRUE…AND THAT ANY OPERATION TARGETED AT A PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN REQUIRES THE HIGHEST LEVEL OF EXPLANATION, WITH FULL DOCUMENTATION WHICH APPEARS TO HAVE BEEN IN THIS CASE.

QUESTIONS CONTINUE TO GROW ABOUT THE FBI’S HANDLING OF INVESTIGATIONS SURROUNDING THE 2016 ELECTIONS. THE HOUSE JUDICIAL COMMITTEE’S INVESTIGATION IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE IN THE COMING WEEKS, WHICH MAY SHOW MORE LIGHT ON THIS OPERATION.
