Paul Sperry of Realclearinvestigations reported Biden regime National Security Adviser [[Jake Sullivan]] figures prominently in an investigation by Special Counsel [[John Durham]] into an alleged [[2016 Hillary Clinton campaign]] scheme to use both the [[FBI]] and [[CIA]] to smear [[Donald Trump]] as a colluder with Russia.<ref>https://www.realclearinvestigations.com/articles/2021/09/23/biden_security_adviser_sullivan_tied_to_16_clinton_plan_to_co-opt_cia_and_fbi_to_tar_trump_795498.html</ref> Sullivan spearheaded what was known inside her campaign as a “confidential project” to link Trump to the [[Kremlin]] through dubious email-server records provided to the agencies. A grand jury indicated in its indictment that several people were involved in the alleged [[conspiracy]] to mislead the FBI and trigger an investigation of Donald Trump. The Clinton campaign project involved compiling a "digital dossier” on several Trump campaign officials – including Lt. Gen. [[Michael Flynn]], [[Paul Manafort]], [[George Papadopoulos]], and [[Carter Page]]. This effort exploited highly sensitive, nonpublic Internet data related to their personal [[email]] communications and web-browsing, known as Internet Protocol, or IP, addresses. To mine the data, the Clinton campaign enlisted a team of Beltway computer contractors as well as university researchers with security clearance who often collaborate with the FBI and the [[intelligence community]]. They worked from a five-page campaign document called the "Trump Associates List."
The indictment states that attorney for the Clinton, [[Michael Sussmann]], as well as the cyber experts, "coordinated with representatives and agents of the Clinton campaign with regard to the data and written materials that Sussmann gave to the FBI and the media." One of those campaign agents was Jake Sullivan, according to emails Durham obtained. On September 15, 2016 [[Marc Elias]], Sussman's partner at the law firm of [[Perkins Coie]], "exchanged emails with the Clinton campaign’s foreign policy adviser concerning the Russian bank allegations," as well as with other top campaign officials, the indictment states.
Prosecutors say the operation ran through at least February 2017, when Sullivan met with another central figure in the plot to plant the anti-Trump smear at the FBI. But now
On February 10, 2017, Sullivan met with Daniel Jones, [[John Podesta]], and two [[FusionGPS]] operatives to hatch the post-election plan to resurrect rumors Trump was a tool of the [[Kremlin]]. RealClearInvestigations reported the group discussed raising money to finance a multimillion-dollar opposition research project headed by Jones to target the new president.<ref>https://www.realclearinvestigations.com/articles/2020/05/14/transcripts_clinton_aides_joined_post-election_bid_to_re-push_anti-trump_dossier_123616.html</ref> In effect, Jones’ operation would replace the Clinton campaign’s operation, continuing the effort to undermine Trump. The goal was to compel agents to continue investigating the false rumors in the wake of the election, thereby keeping Trump's presidency under an ethical cloud.
On March 28, 2017, Jones met with the FBI to pass on supposedly fresh leads he and the cyber researchers had learned about the Alfa Bank server and Trump, and the FBI looked into the new leads after having closed its investigation a month earlier. That same month, FBI Director [[James Comey]] publicly announced the bureau was investigating possible “coordination" between [[Moscow]] and the newly sworn-in president's campaign. Despite the renewed push by Jones, the FBI debunked the tip of a nefarious Russian back channel. Agents learned the email server in question wasn’t even controlled by the Trump Organization. "It wasn’t true," Special Counsel [[Robert Mueller]] confirmed in 2019 testimony.
