"reports say" is an allegation and doesn't come remotely close to having been proven true.

Once gain Trump proves himself America's most prolific source of Fake News!

I ask, because everything that I've read is that Halper simply reached out to various members of the Trump campaign and had informal meetings with three of the campaign staffers. Everyone knew who Halper was, and no one was coerced or tricked into meeting with him. That means Halper could not be an "FBI plant".
How true. They gave up any information all on their own.

Glad you think it'll be OK that will Trump will use the FBI to use plants in the 2020 Election to get Intel on his opponent.

Yeah, there's no problem with Obama weaponizing the Govt to spy on the other party during an election.

Guess he did it with the IRS so no problem doing with the DOJ / FBI.

Where did I say that? Changing my words is not an honest form of debate.

What is this?

The FIFTH thread on this LIE?

Why are these intentional nonfactual LYING THREADS allowed?

Trump and FOX can LIE ALL THEY WANT. These LIES do not CHANGE THE FACT THAT this is:

Another huge NOTHING BURGER.

Australian Ambassador told by Papadopoulos - a Trump campaign "advisor" -

that Russians had DNC emails;

Ambassador alerted FBI;

FBI sent an informant to investigate what the Australian Ambassador told them.

Said "informant" made contact w/Page (known to FBI since 2013) and Papadopolous.

NO plant or SPY was inserted into the campaign
.....nada.....

This was a normal intelligence gathering mission

BECAUSE FBI WAS ALERTED

BY AUSTRALIAN AMBASSADOR

THAT

TRUMP PEOPLE

WERE

COMMUNICATING

WITH

RUSSIA.

Is that clear enough???

Or would all the FBI haters who cannot read prefer FBI stop investigating any possible treasonous activity entirely?

So the Trump campaign gives information over to Halper, who was publicly known to have ties to the CIA during the Nixon, Reagan, and Ford administrations. Maybe they are too stupid to collude after all...

How is Halper a "plant inside the campaign" when he just chatted with Page and Papadopoulos - two unimportant coffee boys who Trump claims were not on his team?

Does somebody direct you to write this nonsense or do you come up with it yourself?

There wasn't a criminal probe. If they had evidence of criminal conduct, they would have used it. Instead, they used their "counterintelligence" authority to spy on the Trump campaign as a pretext with the hope of finding criminal activity.

Your government lied to you.
