Exclusive: Mueller Is Holding Top Secret Intelligence That Will Sink the Trump Presidency
https://observer.com/2019/01/robert-mueller-top-secret-intelligence-will-sink-trump-presidency/
What really ought to worry the president and his inner circle is what Mueller knows about the election and has yet to reveal. The Special Counsel doesnt have to disclose to suspects how it knows certain things, and its apparent that Mueller and his investigators asked Manafort about his dealings with Kilimnik, which he lied aboutand the ostrich jacket connoisseur is now trying to come clean before he gets a de facto life sentence in prison.
That Mueller knew about Manaforts 2016 dealings with Kilimnik is no surprise, given that the two men communicated frequently for many years, and the Special Counsel seized all of those communications from Manafort. But how did Mueller know about their secret Madrid meeting in early 2017, despite Manaforts denials?
The answer lies in a highly secretive intelligence program run by the National Security Agency (NSA). Its called travel tracking and its existence, like so many NSA top-secret operations, was revealed by Edward Snowden, the disgruntled agency IT contractor who fled to Moscow in June 2013 with over a million classified documents from the NSA and other U.S. spy agencies.
Travel tracking means that the NSA and its Five Eyes Anglosphere intelligence partners know whos going where by air, and when, anywhere. They can even crack into WiFi and mobile phones in flight, according to top secret-plus documents stolen and leaked by Snowden. Unless youre traveling under alias documents of the kind issued by higher-end spy services, the NSA and its close friends know where youre headed.
Schindler tends to be right-wing but seems(?) to have legit national security knowledge and connections ? If I am wrong with this impression, please correct me, thanks.
