I think ole' Danchenko is fixing to start chirping.....loudly. Ya know, I wouldn't mind if Ms. Fiona Hill pends a little time with the other females in prison! I mean, they all are for the LGBTQRSTUVWXYZ group(s). I'm thinking that since Durham doesn't have the liberal media, to cover his tracks...like Shillary Rotten's group did..........Durham has the goods on Mr. Danchenko. Tha rats are definitely running off the ship now!!!!
Justice Department special counsel John Durham has indicted Igor Danchenko, the principal sub-source for the discredited “Steele dossier,” which was relied on by the FBI to obtain surveillance warrants in its investigation of the 2016 Trump campaign.
Durham alleges that Danchenko falsely denied to the FBI that some of the information he supplied for the dossier came from a long-time Democratic Party operative who is not identified by name in the indictment.
Moreover, Danchenko is also alleged to have falsely claimed that he had been told of a well-developed “conspiracy of cooperation” between the Trump campaign and Kremlin officials by a man identified in the indictment as president of the Russian-American Chamber of Commerce.
Filed today in federal court in the Eastern District of Virginia, the indictment charges Danchenko with five counts of lying to federal investigators — specifically in several 2017 interviews by the FBI. Each charge carries a potential term of up to five years’ imprisonment.
Danchenko is a U.S.-based Russian national who, among other things, worked for the Brookings Institution in Washington. In particular, he worked at Brookings with foreign-relations and national-security expert Fiona Hill.
As the Free Beacon’s Chuck Ross observes, it was Hill who introduced Danchenko to Christopher Steele, the former British spy who was retained by the Hillary Clinton campaign to generate the Steele dossier.
The campaign was represented by the Perkins-Coie law firm, which retained Fusion-GPS, an intelligence firm that specializes in political-opposition research. Fusion’s co-founder, Glenn Simpson, recruited Steele for the Clinton campaign’s Trump-Russia research project. Steele got much of the information from Danchenko, with whom he had a preexisting professional relationship (through Steele’s London-based intelligence firm, Orbis).
