Its as plain as the nose on your face. That said, I wouldn't expect you to agree.
In the meantime, here comes
Mark Penn, a Clinton fellow traveler:
“Rather than a fair, limited and impartial investigation, the Mueller investigation became a partisan, open-ended inquisition that, by its precedent, is a threat to all those who ever want to participate in a national campaign or an administration again.”
Yup, as I've said before the Mueller investigation is an investigation in search of a crime. It is not an investigation into an actual crime. And more:
Mr. Penn wrote that the F.B.I. and the Justice Department “broke their own rules” to end the investigation into Mrs. Clinton’s use of a private email server. He implied that Mr. Clinton’s encounter with Attorney General Loretta E. Lynch on a Phoenix airport tarmac in 2016 really was as suspicious as Republicans found it. And he suggested that “Clinton Foundation operatives” got the F.B.I. to investigate Mr. Trump.
“I spent a year working with President Clinton against Ken Starr and that effort,” Mr. Penn said on Fox this month. “I just find that that was child’s play to what’s going on here.”
And finally, the piece that relates all of this back to the OP:
In his column this week, he said the Australian diplomat who told the F.B.I. about an incriminating bar conversation with George Papadopoulos, a Trump campaign adviser, was responsible for a $25 million contribution to the Clinton family’s foundation.
There it is again. A contribution to the Clinton family slush fund. A number of Russian business types contributed to that, but that doesn't appear to be of any interest to anyone in ferreting out whether the Russians influenced the 2016 election.
“You don’t need much imagination to figure that he was close with Clinton Foundation operatives who relayed information to the State Department, which then called the F.B.I. to complete the loop,” Mr. Penn wrote. “This wasn’t intelligence. It was likely opposition research from the start.”
So, George P was set up as part of a likely sting operation in an attempt to create a crime. The initial info was fed to George P by an in informant on the FBI's payroll that was planted in the Trump campaign by the FBI.
Its amazing you guys call THIS a conspiracy theory, and treat the imaginary "Russian collusion" thing as fact. If this happened, its really not that hard to envision, particularly as it may have occurred against the backdrop of years of Democrat losses in the House, Senate, state House and Senate races, and Governors offices. Its not that hard to believe particularly when the folks who would have been involved in orchestrating this were the same folks who "fixed" the Democrat nomination in 2016. If they were willing to do that, what else were they willing to "fix"?
Finally:
In his writings and television appearances, Mr. Penn has said he was not motivated by party politics but by concern for the state of the country.
“Stopping Mueller isn’t about one president or one party,” he wrote. “It’s about all presidents and all parties. It’s about cleaning out and reforming the deep state so that our intelligence operations are never used against opposing campaigns without the firmest of evidence.”
I'm sure that the Dems and their allies will start in earnest trashing Penn.
