Russiagate explained

I just want to go on record about an aspect of Russiagate that explains everything. On the face of it, most will think this a looney QAnon-type conspiracy but, in a month or two, I’ll be able to ping this discussion and say I told you so.

During the Obama administration, outside “contractors” were given access to the NSA database. These were people outside government who were allowed to query the database of all info from our Intelligence Agencies from their remote computers. These facts are not in dispute. They’ve already been documented.

At first, it was assumed this was some sort of political snooping. However, we now know it was the largest insider trading operation in world history. Much of the access was done by an organization called Crowdstrike, located in the Ukraine.

Somebody made untold Billions trading on this information, which included wiretaps of nearly every phone call and email in the US. That explains why so many people went to extremes to prevent the Trump Administration from gaining control of the US intelligence agencies. In particular, Michael Flynn would have figured this out very quickly after he headed the NSA.

As they said during Watergate, if you want to understand the crime, follow the money.
