nauseus Posted February 22, 2024 Posted February 22, 2024 6 minutes ago, ozimoron said: 'We were warned': GOP lawmaker says Republicans knew of issues with arrested informant Speaking to CNN's Kaitlan Collins Wednesday evening, Buck pushed back on impeachment efforts by his Republican colleagues in light of the charges against Smirnov, claiming that lawmakers "were warned at the time that we received the document outlining this witness' testimony ... that the credibility of this statement was not known." Republicans fought for the release of the raw FBI notes regarding Smirnov's claims last summer, which federal investigators had asked to withhold from the public to protect "important security interests." https://www.newsweek.com/gop-congressman-says-colleagues-were-warned-about-ex-fbi-informant-1872237 From your own story: Republican Congressman Ken Buck said that House members "were warned" that allegations leveled by an ex-FBI informant regarding President Joe Biden's business dealings may not be credible. AND In his statement to Newsweek last week, Comer said that the "FBI's actions in this matter are very concerning," adding that a source in the bureau had told lawmakers that Smirnov "was credible and trusted, had worked with the FBI for over a decade, and had been paid six figures." So who is reliable here? Not the FBI it seems. 1

placeholder Posted February 22, 2024 Posted February 22, 2024 9 minutes ago, ozimoron said: There was an ongoing investigation. As you already know that means "keep mum". Now they have sounded the warning loud and clear. I'd like to see Comer's other evidence as well. Odd that we haven't already given that they screamed loud and long that Smirnoff was a credible witness. How did Comer know that? Actually, the liar in question is named Smirnov but a shared love of Smirnoff might explain why the Republicans have pushed this nonsense for so long. 1 1

Whether or not they trusted the FBI is irrelevant, they were warned. Believing Comer over the FBI has to be a joke. Hopefully there will be a senate inquiry into who knew what when. 1 1

Danderman123 Posted February 22, 2024 Posted February 22, 2024 14 minutes ago, nauseus said: Aha. OK link that then. For the 10th time: Alexander Smirnov was initially prized by the FBI as a solid source who had relationships with corrupt foreign business and government officials, but his appeal grew when he revealed he also had connections with foreign intelligence services, according to multiple sources. The FBI’s management of Smirnov is drawing fresh scrutiny after it was determined one of the bureau’s longtime paid sources was pushing fake dirt about President Joe Biden and his family. 1

That was scary stuff. We had classified document compartments like bank vaults. If you were caught in one, by yourself, without a second person in there, you were arrested and subject to imprisonment! Have you ever used or tried to access a top secret level, secure, filing cabinet, that refuses to open, even when you have the correct combination or even seen one? A much more secure location to store classified documents than a cardboard box or car in a garage, if what I have heard reported about in biden's case (I have not tried to verify the accuracy of those statements). And how safe do you think Trump's storage at Mar-a-Lago was for seriously classified documents? 2 1

You cannot provide a rational answer why the Russians were helping the Republican impeachment effort. At this point, I suspect your brain wiring doesn't allow you to answer. Either that, or you afraid if you give an honest answer, some other poster would report you to the Russians.

Better stick to al Jazeera opinion for proof then. Posters are required to put proof on any post when they claim to be posting a fact.

Don't you wonder why? Or you just don't care who helps, as long as Biden loses the election? I hope Biden is the candidate, as he now is the best reason a GOP candidate will win. If the Dems had a candidate that could speak coherently and not talk to dead people they likely would win, but that doesn't include Harris. If she was the candidate the GOP should be a shoo in. However, I doubt even the Dems would be so foolish as to put her up as the candidate. IMO the plan is to let Biden win, then for him to hand it over to Harris.
