The Danchenko Affair

A few days ago, something very disturbing came to light via the Durham investigation into the whole Steele dossier scam and the FBI’s involvement in it. While for many, it seems special investigator, John Durham is moving at a snail’s pace and his investigation has been long on hope while being short on results, all one needs to do is look at the complex nature of Igor Danchenko’s involvement in all of it to see just why the gears are turning so slowly. Imagine being in charge of unraveling the tangled web of lies and deceit spun by the liberal machine and their henchmen…the FBI.

Danchenko was indicted last year on five counts of making false statements to the bureau, and special counsel John Durham said the comments were about the information provided to Richard Steele for the infamous Steele dossier. Danchenko has pleaded not guilty, and he’s set to go on trial next month.

Let’s start with, who exactly is Sergei Millian, and why is he stuck in the middle of all of this? Well, Millian is a Belarusian-American businessman and former president of the Russian-American Chamber of Commerce. Millian has claimed to have some association with President Donald Trump, and members of Trump’s 2016 campaign staff but to be fair, lots of people claim to have brushed up against Trump. Historically, it’s been good for business in some circles.

Igor Danchenko has claimed that Millian is a source for the Steele dossier…allegations that Millian has always denied.

The Steele dossier, as we now know was a total fabrication. It made false allegations against then candidate Trump, and later against President Trump. That dossier contained allegations of sexual misconduct while Trump was visiting Russia, made allegations of Russian collusion BY Trump, and was used to garner FISA warrants used to spy on Carter Page, the Trump campaign in 2016 and on the Trump White House.

Early on during the witch hunt against Trump, we learned that Igor Danchenko, a former Russian agent who was used by Steele to gather damning counter-intelligence against Trump had lied in the information he passed to Steele. Danchenko admitted that the info was completely unreliable as it was gathered in bars from drunk Russians spinning tall tales.

Now then, supposedly, a good deal of the so-called but completely fabricated counter-intelligence Danchenko passed along to Steele was compiled from a 10-15 minute phone call from Sergei Millian in late July of 2016. Got that? Late July of 2016.

Okay…according to the freshly released documents from John Durham (notice I say “released” because Durham does not “leak” information) “Steele report containing those sexual allegations was dated June, 2016 – over a month prior to the defendant’s (Igor Danchenko’s) phone call with Millian. To state the obvious, it would be impossible for Millian to confirm the Ritz Carlton allegations (and other information) to the defendant in June of 2016 because the defendant repeatedly informed the FBI that the first and only time he allegedly communicated with Millian was July 2016.”

Durham says, and he’s 100% correct, that Danchenko was lying to the FBI…couldn’t keep his lies straight, and was intentionally trying to deceive the FBI as to the sourcing of the Steele dossier.

Danchenko had told the FBI that he was given a tour of the presidential suite at the Moscow Ritz Carlton and that it was during that tour, where Trump was falsely alleged to have committed sexual misconduct, that he was part of a conversation regarding claimed sexual misconduct.

Alright then…who exactly is Charles Dolan, and how does he fit into this mess?

Dolan is a well regarded democrat donor with deep pockets who has ties to the Clintons and guess what? It was Charles Dolan who was given that tour of the Moscow Ritz Carlton presidential suite, and according to Dolan…Igor Danchenko was NOT there.

From the latest Durham document: “the Government anticipates that Mr. Dolan will testify that (1) it was he and Mr. Kupka who attended a lunch with the Ritz-Carlton general manager and other hotel staff during the June 2016 Moscow trip and that [Danchenko] was not present, and (2) neither Donald Trump nor his purported sexual practices were ever discussed at that lunch. Further, the Government also anticipates that Mr. Dolan will testify that Ritz-Carlton hotel staff did, in fact, provide the aforementioned tour of the presidential suite as part of the June 2016 trip and that, again, Donald Trump and his purported sexual practices were not discussed during that tour.”

Now, why would Danchenko insert Millian INTO the happenings at the Moscow Ritz Carlton, while removing  Dolan from any connection to those happenings? It’s an interesting question, and it has quite the shocking answer.

For Millian to provide counter-intel on Trump with a connection to Donald Trump would look very bad for Trump indeed, but Dolan, should HE be tied into the scam with his ties to the Clintons would expose HILLARY as a key figure IN the scam.

So, how do we know that Dolan was a source for the Steele dossier? Well, according to John Durham, he intends to introduce evidence “that Danchenko “on multiple occasions communicated and emailed with, among others, Charles Dolan regarding his work for Steele and Orbis,” and “Evidence that proves Dolan was aware of [Danchenko’s] reporting was part of a ‘related project against Trump’ and that this work was being done on behalf of Steele and Orbis.”

Durham has the cyber paper trail. Durham has much more than a trail however, he also has documented evidence regarding Danchenko discussing failed efforts to reach or contact Millian. Richard Steele told the FBI that Danchenko and Millian had had several meetings. Danchenko told the FBI that Steele was lying…that he only had the single phone call with Millian. By the time that Steele spoke to the Mueller investigation, and passed on his manufactured claims regarding the Danchenko/Millian meetings, the FBI KNEW he was lying, but they, the FBI, was fully invested in the scam.

Putting it bluntly, Millian was NOT the source of the sexual allegations against Donald Trump…it was Hillary’s pal Dolan who made that crap up and gave it to Steele…perhaps with the full knowledge and encouragement of Hillary Clinton herself.

Here’s where things start to get more interesting, more shocking and more damning for the FBI.

By the time the FBI had discovered that the Steele dossier was a fraud, and that Danchenko was a fraud, they were already fully invested in the “get Trump by any means necessary” scam. So deep into it was the FBI that they knew they had to cover THEIR tracks, just as they were engaged in covering Hillary Clinton’s tracks. To that end, the FBI made Igor Danchenko a confidential human source, or a confidential informant. What that means is that the FBI, in March of 2017, put Danchenko on the payroll.

In case you’re missing a key point here, that means that the FBI was using OUR tax dollars to PAY a fraud to continue to collect FALSE information against President Trump for POLITICAL reasons.

From Durham’s latest document, “In March 2017, the FBI signed up the defendant (Igor Danchenko) as a paid confidential human source of the FBI. The FBI terminated its source relationship with the defendant in October 2017.”

Invested? I’d say so. The FBI knew full-well that their “get Trump” scam was falling apart. They KNEW that it was based solely on lies from a known fraud and they KNEW that Hillary Clinton was a key player IN the scam. The FBI had already targeted Michael Flynn using false evidence, and they had used false evidence to garner two FISA warrants against Carter Page, Trump, and the Trump campaign.

Putting Danchenko on the payroll would allow the FBI to continue to use him, and at the same time “protect” Danchenko from becoming a witness…thus REALLY protecting the FBI from being exposed as a willing participant in a political attempt to unseat a sitting president. It allowed both the FBI and the Mueller probe to continue to “protect” their source by hiding their own unlawful actions.

So, the FBI was acting well outside the law, they were covering Danchenko’s ass, covering Hillary Clinton’s ass, covering Richard Steele’s ass and covering their own ass. Was that the end of it? Were those all the asses that needed covering?

While there is no proof of what I’m about to state, not yet anyway, I suspect the stack of asses went even deeper.

Remember that the first attempt to Impeach President Trump was initially based on what we now know was a hoax…the Russian Collusion scam, but all of a sudden, it shifted focus to a quid pro quo scam against President Trump.

Why the shift?

Because the FBI wasn’t the only party involved that knew that under oath in a congressional hearing, they might well be exposed. So too did Adam Schiff know the risk of continuing down the path of lies and unlawful actions by the FBI, Hillary Clinton and quite possibly Barack Hussein Obama. They HAD to shift the focus, and they were all so deeply invested that they couldn’t stop the witch hunt.

Here’s an interesting question…whatever happened to the unnamed witness and the “proof” that Adam Schiff claimed he had regarding the “Russian Collusion?”

Schiff had a parade of witnesses who, under oath, had to admit they had witnessed NOTHING. One by one they recounted what they had heard from somebody who had heard it from somebody else. The “Russian Collusion” hoax was sunk, and Schiff knew it. Could it possibly be that the unnamed source, and the “proof” were Danchenko and the Steele Dossier? I believe it’s more than possible, and therefore, not only did the FBI have to cover the aforementioned asses, they had to provide cover for Schiff’s ass as well. Taking Danchenko and making him a paid informant thus removing Danchenko from being called as a witness before Schiff’s kangaroo court would have certainly covered Schiff’s ass.

Who else had an ass that required covering?

How about Michael Horowitz, who published a long report regarding how he found that the FBI had “sufficient, and valid reasons” into opening a case against Trump for colluding with Russia when in fact…not one word supplied BY the FBI was true? Merrick Garland? Christopher Wray? We know damned well that the FBI and the DOJ are covering Joe and Hunter Biden’s asses too.

How about Robert Mueller, who seemed torn by covering up the lies in HIS final report while drawing scant attention to a couple of deck chairs that needed to be shuffled about?

Now, take into account everything that’s happened since the “Russian Collusion” hoax unraveled…a second failed impeachment attempt over what liberals claim was an “insurrection” on Jan. 6th, 2021, arrests and further harassment of Trump supporters, arrests of Trump staffers, the raid on Mar-a-Lago and so much more including the harassment of a Trump voters, based on an “anonymous source” claiming that Lisa Gallagher was part of the Jan. 6th fiasco when in fact, Gallagher wasn’t even in Washington DC.

So, why has Igor Danchenko been indicted? The simple answer is because of his involvement in the entire “Russian Collusion” hoax, but the truth goes much deeper than that.

What about all the other names I mentioned in this commentary? What about Hillary Clinton, Obama, Schiff, Comey, Joe Biden, Merrick Garland, Christopher Wray, Lisa Page, Peter Strzok, Andrew McCabe or any number of OTHERS who were clearly involved in the scam? Why Igor Danchenko and not them?

Compared to the Biden regime and the liberal elite, Danchenko is but a small rat in a big swamp, and he’s a foreign agent. He’s NOT a high-profile member of the LIBERAL ELITE. He’s the fall-guy. He’s expendable.

ALL of the people I’ve named here and MORE, including members of the mainstream liberal media who perpetuated the lies leveled against President Trump and the cover-up regarding Joe and Hunter Biden, should be held accountable for THEIR roles in the attempted COUP against a sitting president as they ALL engaged in some level of employing FOREIGN agents to overthrow a duly elected President of these United States.

Danchenko was far from a lone-wolf in the scam, he didn’t act alone, and there are plenty of heads that need to roll right along with his.

If Conservatives win this November, and again in 2024 including congress and the White House, we may finally make a dent in draining the swamp.

Only time will tell.
