"Litvinenkos death was slow enough for him to identify who he believed had murdered him and how. In these last interviews he gave from his hospital bed (as detailed in Hardings book), Litvinenko was visited by his MI6 handler a man with the code name Martin.
Harding surmises that Martin would have been fluent in Russian. Due to the dates when Litvinenko and Martin were known to be working together at MI6 (2003-2006), we cannot help but wonder if Martin is Christopher Steele who handled the Russian Desk at MI6 from 2004-2009 and participated in the investigation into Litvinenkos assassination."
(Snip)
But we go back to that press conference because that is what haunts us personally. We believe that what Litvinenko warned the world about is happening again here at home.
After the firing of James Comey, Donald Trump named Christopher Wray the new Director of the FBI. Prior to this recent appointment, Wray spent over a decade working for King & Spalding - a small law firm (on the scale of how large firms can be) whose primary clients are GAZPROM and ROSNEFT. Although Wray was at the FBI before his years at King & Spalding, those years at the FBI were also at a time when Semions mob was infiltrating intelligence communities world-wide, to compromise the LE agencies who hunted him. All of this has us more than concerned.
Even more concerning is Donalds nomination for running the ORGANIZED CRIME UNIT at the DOJ (as in, the men and women who specifically hunt the mob) - Brian Benczkowski. As of the time we are writing this, Benczkowski has yet to be confirmed by the full Senate. Why does he concern us so? Benczkowski is Alfa Banks private attorney."
We will leave it there.
