The FBI set up shop in the U.S. embassy in Kiev to assist its Ukraine–Manafort inquiry while using Steele as an informant at the start of its Russia probe. Nellie Ohr, wife of [[Bruce Ohr]] and a researcher for Fusion GPS, testified to Congress that some of Fusion GPS's research came from a Ukrainian member of parliament.<ref>https://dailycaller.com/2019/02/06/nellie-ohr-fusion-gps-leshchenko-ukraine/</ref> The Clinton campaign was using [[Perkins Coie]] law firm to pay [[FusionGPS]] for Steele's work to stop Trump from winning the presidency, at the same time Steele was a paid FBI informant. − − The charges against Paul Manafort originated with Serhiy Leshenko, a Ukrainian member of parliament, and Artem Sytnyk, director of Ukraine's National Anti-Corruption Bureau (NABU). Leshenko provided the information to Clinton campaign staffer Alexandra Chalupa,<ref>The DNC paid Chalupa $412,000 from 2004 to June 2016, according to Federal Election Commission records.</ref> who passed the information to [[Michael Isikoff]] of Yahoo News.

Steele is a foreign citizen hired by Hillary Clinton to influence the outcome of the 2016 election and affect the removal of a sitting president.]] − [[Nellie Ohr]] told congressional investigators on October 19, 2018, that while she was working for FusionGPS, she was sometimes given leads from both Jake Berkowitz, her direct supervisor, and Fusion GPS co-founder [[Glenn Simpson]]. When asked if any Fusion research was based off “sources of theirs,” Nellie answered affirmatively but said the information that came from the sources wasn't in relation to the Trump family. − − When pressed, Nellie said she recalled them “mentioning someone named [[Serhiy Leshchenko]], a Ukrainian.” She later admitted she knew of Leshchenko prior to her time at Fusion as he was a “very well-known, Ukrainian, anti-corruption activist” and said she had followed him in the press. − − Leshchenko revealed the existence in 2016 of the so-called Ukrainian “Black Ledger,” which allegedly contained a list of secret payments made by Ukraine's pro-Russian Party of Regions to [[Paul Manafort]] among many others. − − Leshchenko had adopted a strong anti-Trump stance, telling the ''Financial Times'' of [[London]] on August 28, 2016 that “a Trump presidency would change the pro-Ukrainian agenda in American foreign policy” and that it was “important to show not only the corruption aspect, but that he is [a] pro-Russian candidate who can break the geopolitical balance in the world.” Leschenko noted that the majority of Ukrainian politicians were “on Hillary Clinton’s side.”<ref>https://archive.is/B9rIl</ref> − − Nellie Ohr said she wasn't aware how the connection between Leshchenko and FusionGPS was established, or if they were doing work for him, but she did agree that Leshchenko was “a source of information” and acknowledged that she then used that information in following up and formulating her opposition research. − − Later in Ohr's testimony, Leshchenko was briefly mentioned once again. She appeared to be very careful with her choice of wording—especially when Manafort's name came up: − {{quotebox|'''Ms. Sachsman Grooms:''' You mentioned that, at some point, somebody from Fusion GPS told you that they were giving you a tip that was based off of a source that was a Ukrainian source, Serhiy Leshchenko. Is that right? − − '''Ms. Ohr:''' Yes. That they were—that they were giving me some information that had originated with him in some way. − − '''Ms. Sachsman Grooms:''' Do you recall whether that information related to Mr. Manafort? − − '''Ms. Ohr:''' What I’ll say is that at the time—at the same meeting, if I recall correctly, that his name came up, this piece of paper that lists Mr. Manafort’s flights was given to me, and I’m not—I don’t recall exactly right now whether they said this particular piece of paper comes from Mr. Leshchenko or not.<ref>[https://dougcollins.house.gov/sites/dougcollins.house.gov/files/10.19.18%20Nellie%20Ohr%20Interview.pdf INTERVIEW OF: NELLIE OHR], House Oversight Committee, October 19, 2018.</ref>}} − − At this point, the questioning abruptly moved on and no further questions involving either Manafort or Leshchenko were put forth. Ohr was never asked if she had ever met with Leshchenko directly. − − On 30 July 2016 Bruce Ohr, Nellie Ohr, Christopher Steele and Glenn Simpson had breakfast at the Washington Mayflower Hotel. <!--Also present at the breakfast meeting was a fourth individual, described by Ohr as “an associate of Mr. Steele’s, another gentleman, younger fellow. I didn’t catch his name.”--> Steele told Ohr that "Paul Hauser, who was an attorney working for Oleg Deripaska, had information about Paul Manafort, that Paul Manafort had entered into some kind of business deal with Oleg Deripaska, had stolen a large amount of money from Oleg Deripaska, and that Paul Hauser was trying to gather information that would show that, you know, or give more detail about what Paul Manafort had done with respect to Deripaska.” The money relates to a failed Ukrainian cable TV project Deripaska invested money with Manafort in. Bruce Ohr called [[Andy McCabe]] immediately after the meeting. − − The FBI's investigation, dubbed “[[Crossfire Hurricane]]” was formally opened the following day by FBI agent Peter Strzok. − − Two weeks after that ''New York Times'' published an article entitled ''Secret Ledger in Ukraine Lists Cash for Donald Trump’s Campaign Chief.''” The article states: “Mr. Deripaska would later say he invested $18.9 million in Pericles [Manafort's company] in 2008 to complete the acquisition of Black Sea Cable. But the planned purchase—including the question of who ended up with the Black Sea assets—has since become the subject of a dispute between Mr. Deripaska and Mr. Manafort.”<ref>https://www.nytimes.com/2016/08/15/us/politics/paul-manafort-ukraine-donald-trump.html</ref> − − Manafort resigned as Trump's campaign chairman 5 days later. − − ===Michael Isikoff and Yahoo News=== − [[File:27067022 1565197686869300 6687960957434384962 n.jpg|right|250px|thumb|[[Mainstream media|Mainstream news]] sources published fake news stories put out by the Obama intelligence community stirring up public hysteria to cover-up its illegal surveillance of the 2016 Trump campaign.]] − :{{See also|Fake news}} − On April 26, 2016, [[Yahoo News]] investigative reporter Michael Isikoff published a story about Paul Manafort's business dealings with Russian oligarch Oleg Deripaska. − − The Isikoff article referenced an investment fund, Pericles Emerging Markets, which was started by Manafort and several partners in 2007. According to ''[[The New York Times]]'', Deripaska was the financial backer of the fund and agreed to commit as much as $100 million, although he apparently only invested $18.9 million in 2008 to finance the purchase of Black Sea Cable, a Ukrainian telecommunications company. Pericles is now defunct, and Deripaska sued Manafort in a Cayman Islands court, seeking to recover his investment. − − This same transaction would later be referenced in the Aug. 14, 2016, ''New York Times'' article that reported the alleged payments to Manafort from the Party of Regions black box. − − On April 28, 2016, Chalupa appeared on a panel to discuss her research on Manafort with a group of 68 Ukrainian investigative journalists gathered at the [[Library of Congress]], for a program sponsored by a U.S. congressional agency called the Open World Leadership Center. − − Appearing with her was Isikoff, with whom she was apparently working and whom she had invited, according to a May 3, 2016, email that Chalupa sent to Luis Miranda, communications director of the DNC, and was published by [[Wikileaks]]:<ref>https://wikileaks.org/dnc-emails/emailid/3962</ref> {{quotebox|“I spoke to a delegation of 68 investigative journalists from Ukraine last Wednesday at the Library of Congress—the Open World Society’s forum—they put me on the program to speak specifically about Paul Manafort and I invited Michael Isikoff, whom I’ve been working with for the past few weeks and connected him to the Ukrainians.”}} − − Isikoff is the same reporter who published an article about Trump campaign foreign policy adviser [[Carter Page]] on Sept. 23, 2016. The article, headlined ''U.S. Intel Officials Probe Ties Between Trump Adviser and Kremlin,'' was based on an interview with [[Christopher Steele]]. Isikoff's article would later be used as corroborating information by the FBI in the [[FISA]] warrant application on Page.<ref>[https://theconservativetreehouse.com/2020/03/08/doj-political-surveillance-from-the-irs-in-2011-to-the-fisa-court-in-2016/ DOJ Political Surveillance – From the IRS in 2011 to the FISA Court in 2016], Posted on March 8, 2020 by sundance. theconservativetreehouse.com </ref> − − Chalupa's email closed with a reference to something larger that would become public in the coming weeks: {{quotebox|“More offline tomorrow since there is a big Trump component you and Lauren need to be aware of that will hit in next few weeks and something I’m working on you should be aware of.”}} − − In late July, according to the ''Politico'' article, Chalupa left the DNC to work full-time on her research into Manafort. Around the same time, on Aug. 4, 2016, Chaly, the Ukrainian ambassador, wrote an op-ed in ''The Hill'' against candidate Trump, noting that “recent comments by [[Republican]] nominee [[Donald Trump]] about the Ukrainian peninsula of [[Crimea]]—occupied by Russia since March 2014—have raised serious concerns in Kyiv and beyond Ukraine.” − − ===Ukrainian prosecutors=== − Following the successful overthrow of Ukrainian President Yanukovych,<ref>Oliver Stone documentary [https://twitter.com/JackPosobiec/status/1180915084522078208?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw ''Ukraine on Fire'' trailer].</ref> Biden had a direct hand in the formation of the National Anti-Corruption Bureau or NABU as he personally “pushed for the creation of an independent anti-corruption bureau to combat graft." − − NABU was formally established in October 2014 in response to pressure from not only from the U.S. State Department and Biden, but also by the International Monetary Fund and the European Commission. − − Despite the international push, the fledgling anti-corruption unit took over a year to actually become a functioning unit. During this time, NABU officials began establishing a relationship with the [[FBI]]. In early 2016, NABU director Artem Sytnyk announced that his bureau was very close to signing a Memorandum of cooperation with the FBI and by February 2016, the FBI had had a permanent representative onsite at the NABU offices. Sytnyk admitted that he tried to sabotage the campaign of Donald Trump in an effort to boost Clinton.<ref>https://www.lifezette.com/2019/10/audio-collusion-dnc-ukraine-hillary-trump/</ref> − − − On June 5, 2016, Sytnyk met with U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine, Geoffrey Pyatt to discuss a more formalized relationship with the FBI and on June 30, 2016, NABU and the FBI entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) that allowed for an FBI office onsite at NABU offices to focus on international money laundering cases. The relationship was renewed for an additional two years in June 2017. − − NABU has repeatedly refused to make the Memorandum of Understanding with the FBI public and went to court in 2018 to prevent its release. After receiving an unfavorable opinion from the Kyiv District Administrative Court, NABU appealed the ruling which was overturned in their favor by the Sixth Administrative Court of Appeal. − − Serhiy Leshchenko became the subject of an investigation in December 2018 after a [[Kyiv]] court ruled that Leshchenko, along with NABU Director Artem Sytnyk acted illegally when they illegally leaked Manafort's name in the Black Ledger.<ref>https://www.kyivpost.com/ukraine-politics/publication-of-manafort-payments-violated-law-interfered-in-us-election-kyiv-court-rules.html</ref><ref>[https://www.nytimes.com/2018/12/12/world/europe/ukraine-paul-manafort.html Ukrainian CourtRuled Manafort Disclosure Caused 'Meddling' in U.S. Election], ''The New York Times.''</ref> The court ruled the disclosure broke the law and “led to interference in the electoral processes of the United States in 2016 and harmed the interests of Ukraine as a state."<ref>https://thehill.com/hilltv/rising/434892-senior-ukrainian-justice-official-says-hes-opened-probe-into-us-election</ref> − − In Dec. 2017, Ukrainian Prosecutor General Yuriy Lutsenko accused Sytnyk of allowing the FBI to conduct illegal operations in Ukraine, claiming that the “U.S. law enforcers were allegedly invited without the permission required and in breach of the necessary procedures.” Lutsenko continued, asking “who actually let the foreign special service act in Ukraine?” − − Taras Chornovil, a Ukrainian political analyst, also questioned the FBI's activities, writing that “some kind of undercover operations are being conducted in Ukraine with direct participation (or even under control) of the FBI. This means the FBI operatives could have access to classified data or confidential information.” − − Prosecutor General Lutsenko called for an audit of NABU, claiming to “possess information of interest to the auditors” and was pushing for Sytnyk's resignation, along with that of Nazar Kholodnitskiy, the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office (SAP). According to reporting by Euromaiden Press, Lutsenko's efforts failed “thanks to the reaction from Ukraine’s American partners.” − − Michael Carpenter, an advisor to former vice-president Joe Biden, personally issued a public warning to Lutsenko and others pushing for Sytnyk's removal, stating, “If the Rada votes to dismiss the head of the Anticorruption Committee and the head of the NABU, I will recommend cutting all U.S. government assistance to #Ukraine, including security assistance.” − − ===US Embassy in Kiev=== − Lutsenko accused the Obama-era U.S. Embassy in 2016 of interfering in his office's ability to prosecute corruption cases,<ref>https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-48268762</ref> saying the U.S. ambassador gave him a list of defendants that he could not pursue, then refused to cooperate in an investigation into alleged misappropriation of U.S. funds to aid Ukraine. Embassy official George Kent wrote, “We are gravely concerned about this investigation for which we see no basis."<ref>https://html1-f.scribdassets.com/6ngpwwr6yo6tov9k/images/1-204cb3458d.jpg</ref> Ukrainian officials said, {{quotebox|The implied message to Ukraine’s prosecutors was clear: Don’t target AntAC in the middle of an America presidential election in which [[Soros]] was backing Hillary Clinton to succeed another Soros favorite, [[Barack Obama]].}} − − Kostiantyn Kulyk, deputy head of the Prosecutor General's International Legal Cooperation Department, said senior Ukrainian [[law enforcement]] officials have tried since 2018 to get [[visa]]s from the U.S. Embassy in Kiev to deliver their evidence of Obama-era wrongdoing by [[Democrat]]s to Washington but have been thwarted. “We were supposed to share this information during a working trip to the United States. However, the U.S. ambassador blocked us from obtaining a visa." House Rules Committee chairman Pete Sessions asked [[Secretary of State]] [[Mike Pompeo]] to recall the current U.S. ambassador who has spoken against U.S policy in 2018.<ref>https://html2-f.scribdassets.com/36o8ydebgg6touoh/images/1-b12b1ad1d1.jpg</ref> − − Kulyk said one focus of investigators has been as disbursements of much as $7 billion in Ukrainian funds spirited unlawfully out of the country and moved to the United States by businessmen friendly to the prior regime of Viktor Yanukovych. Ukrainian businessmen “authorized payments for lobbying efforts directed at the U.S. government,” he told me. “In addition, these payments were made from funds that were acquired during the [[money-laundering]] operation. We have information that a U.S. company was involved in these payments.” That company is tied to one or more prominent Democrats. − − Ukrainian investigators also gathered evidence that money paid to a Democrat allegedly was hidden by Ukraine's National Anti-Corruption Bureau (NABU) during the 2016 election under pressure from the Obama administration. “In the course of this investigation, we found that there was a situation during which influence was exerted on the NABU, so that the name of the American would not be mentioned.<ref>https://thehill.com/opinion/white-house/437719-ukrainian-to-us-prosecutors-why-dont-you-want-our-evidence-on-democrats</ref> − − ===Serhiy Leshchenko=== − On Aug. 14, 2016, ''The New York Times'' broke their blockbuster story alleging that payments to Manafort had been uncovered from the Party of Regions “black box”—the 400-page handwritten ledger released by Leshchenko.<ref>https://www.nytimes.com/2016/08/15/us/politics/paul-manafort-ukraine-donald-trump.html</ref> The article proved to be a fatal blow for Manafort, who resigned from the Trump campaign just days later. − − On Aug. 19, 2016, Isikoff wrote a follow-up article, claiming that Ukrainian anti-corruption investigators were seeking to question Manafort, who had resigned from the Trump campaign that same day. The source for Isikoff was Leshchenko, who told him that the National Anti-Corruption Bureau (NACB) of Ukraine “have to interrogate him. … This has to happen.” − − Leshchenko held a press conference in Kyiv that same day, where he provided further details from the Party of Regions’ ledger. Leshchenko also provided details directly to Isikoff, telling Yahoo News “that ledgers in the book include 22 separate entries for Manafort—most of them for fees under his contract as a political consultant to the party, but others for exit polls, computers, international observers and other expenses.” − − Mentioned in the same article was Chalupa, with whom Isikoff had been working: “I’m ecstatic that Paul Manafort resigned from the Trump campaign,” Chalupa told Yahoo News. “Mr. Manafort is someone who spent the last decades working against our nation’s foreign policy interests overseas, as most recently demonstrated in Ukraine when he worked for Putin’s former puppet president, Viktor Yanukovych.” − − Besides Isikoff, it appears Leshchenko had also been in contact with Chalupa. According to a March 20, 2017, report from Fox News, Leshchenko had spoken with Chalupa sometime in 2016: {{quotebox|“Leshchenko said he discussed Manafort’s role in Ukrainian politics with Chalupa, the Democratic consultant, last year. Leshchenko said Manafort ‘kept his eyes blind to all the corruption’ by the Ukrainian politicians he was advising years ago.”}} − − The day after election day, Alexandra Chalupa posted a message to [[Facebook]] about work done in conjunction between the [[Department of Justice]], the [[Department of Homeland Security]] and an Anonymous-based organisation known as “The Protectors” based in [[Washington, DC]]. {{quotebox|“Homeland Security/DOJ teamed up with a group that is part of Anonymous based in Washington, D.C. called ‘The Protectors’. This group saw a lot of activity during Election Day from the Russians and believe that the voting results projected don’t match the internal and public polls because the voting results were manufactured in favor of Trump in heavily Republican counties in key states, and voting results may have been described for Clinton in key Democratic countries via malware that was placed by the Russians when they hacked the election systems of more than half our states.” <ref>https://www.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=10157855450785389&id=614520388</ref>}} − − On July 24, 2017, Sen. [[Chuck Grassley]] (R-Iowa) sent a letter to Deputy Attorney General [[Rod Rosenstein]] regarding Chalupa, noting that her actions {{quotebox|appear to show that she was simultaneously working on behalf of a foreign government, Ukraine, and on behalf of the DNC and Clinton campaign, in an effort to influence not only the U.S. voting population but U.S. government officials.<ref>https://www.grassley.senate.gov/news/news-releases/grassley-raises-further-concerns-over-foreign-agent-registration</ref>}} − − Grassley asked why the [[DOJ]] hadn't required Chalupa to register under the [[Foreign Agents Registration Act]] and also asked if the DOJ was {{quotebox|investigating links and coordination between the Ukrainian government and individuals associated with the campaign of Hillary Clinton or the Democratic National Committee? If not, why not?}}
