Just FYI: The Latest Wingnut Conspiracy Target Is A Professor Named Stefan Halper.

Brace yourself to hear that name in the mainstream right wing media in the next few days. The body-pod has already hatched on the fringes, and is about to make its way into the mainstream...

It always amuses me when wingnut conspiracy theorists are presented with facts that contradict their theory, they don't take it as evidence that their theory is wrong. They take it as evidence that the conspiracy is even BIGGER!
But here we go again...

The original flack cover-story was that the "phony Steele Dossier" was used as a false flag excuse to start the FBI investigation into the Trump Campaign. But, since the Steele Dossier has been 'discredited' (something repeated on Fux News at least 20 times a day), then the FBI's investigation needs to be shut down, because it is 'fruit of a poison tree.' RIGHT? Right...

Then we discovered that the investigation was started BEFORE the FBI even had Steele's dossier. It was started in response to George Papadapoulos shooting his mouth off to an Australian diplomat in a bar in London.

This was problematic for the right wing nutosphere until they realized that this is only proof of a BIGGER conspiracy.



The latest iteration is as follows:

The FBI wanted to destroy Trump from the start, so they set up an ENTRAPMENT of Papadapoulos. They used an FBI 'spy' named Stefan Halper (who was actually a Reagan Administration foreign policy expert) to tell Papadapoulos that the Russians had Clinton's emails, and to talk to a guy named Joseph Mifsud about it while in London. (Mifsud has now vanished.) The FBI then sent Australian diplomat Alexander Downer to get Papadapoulos drunk in a London bar, where Papadapoulos repeated what FBI spy Stefan Halper had told him, as if it was his OWN information. Downer than repeated that back to the FBI, and bingo...they had their CONTRIVED excuse to not only spy on Papadapoulos, but to charge him with lying to the FBI in order to flip him.

So there you have it. The deep state FBI is (apparently) involved in a para-military COUP D'ETAT to bring down Trump before he was even elected, and that this MUST be the 'insurance policy' that Peter Strzok was talking about. The FBI kick-started it from NOTHING.

I was wondering why Limbaugh and Hannity were being all coy on their radio shows yesterday, saying they had the name of the secret FBI mole that started all this. So, I just looked it up in the internet wingnutosphere...

Witness the spread of wingnuttery below.

Question: is this Halper guy the FBI informant in the campaign

POI: the FBI was also concerned about Carter Page actually being a Russian spy. They had him on their radar years before the Dossier
