This week, Washington was turned upside down by new releases in the declassification of material with regard to the origin of the Russian study. The material shows further proof of a secret plan from the Clinton campaign to use the FBI and the media to spread a false claim that Donald Trump was a Russian active. With this material, the audience finally sees how civil servants and reporters have been set in motion what the largest hoax ever can have been committed in American politics.
There was never a Russian conspiracy of the collusion. This is the emerging story of the real Russian conspiracy to produce a false story that managed to devour a large part of the first term of the Trump government.
What pops up in these documents is a political illusion that is carefully built by government officials and a willing media. The sparkle of the trick was that reporters led the illusion; To possess it as members of an audience who called the stage by an illusionist.

The effort followed the three steps of the classic magic trick: the promise, turn and the prestige.
The promise
The trick began with the promise, the stage in which the public is set up by showing ordinary events with the suggestion that it is about to transform it into something extraordinary. The key is to make something really seem that is not.
The Clinton campaign supplied the promise by secretly financing the Steele file, with the help of Fusion GPS and a former British spy called Christopher Steele, to create a Salach report that Trump is an agent of Russia.
It was Elias who was the general lawyer of the Clinton Presidential Campaign when it financed the notorious Steele file and pushed the false alfa bank –. (His colleague Perkins Coie partner, Michael Sussmann, was sued but acquitted in a criminal proceedings.)
During the campaign, some reporters asked about the possible connection with the campaign, but Clinton -campaign officials denied any involvement in the Steele file. After the elections, journalists discovered that the payments for the Steele file were hidden as if “Legal costs” below $ 5.6 million Paid to Perkins Coie under Elias.
When the New York Times reporter Ken Vogel tried to report the story, he said, Elias “Puriously pushed and say: ‘You (or your sources) are wrong. “” Times Reporter Maggie Haberman stated, “People involved in financing about this, and with holiness, for a year. “
Later John Podesta, the campaign president of Clinton, appeared for the congress for interrogation over the Steele file. Podesta every contractual agreement with Fusion GPS refused. Sitting next to him was Elias, who reportedly said nothing to correct the misleading information to the congress.
The FEC ultimately sanctioned the Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee on the handling of the financing of the file through its earlier company.
Turn
The next step is the turn when the ordinary becomes something extraordinary. This required the involvement of the government. The Clinton team worked behind the scenes to conduct the file on the FBI. It would be the criminal investigation that the ordinary bills, such as Carter Page, in Moscow, would transform into an extensive Russian plot. Although the FBI was warned early on that page, a CIA assets, no Russian property was, the Clinton team found enthusiastic officials in the Obama government to help with the illusion.
The newly known evidence shows how the turn was made. In July 2016, Brennan informed Hillary Clinton’s “plan” former President Obama to bind the then candidate Trump to Russia as “a means to distract the audience from her use of a private e-mail server.” The original investigation by Russia – funded by the Clinton campaign – was launched days after this briefing.
Months later it would be Brennan who destroyed his own CIA analysts when ordering a second last-minute assessment at the end of the Obama government to support the Russian allegations. It would help to make the turn of the all -wasting Russian research that would follow.
Career analysts did not buy the turn. They objected that the dependence on the Steele file “encountered fundamental principles of TradeCraft and ultimately undermined the credibility of an important judgment”. One CIA analyst Researchers told That “[Brennan] refused to remove it, and when confronted with the most important errors of the file, [Brennan] replied, “Yes, but doesn’t it sound true?” “
That is the key to turn; It just has to be enough to fool the audience.
The prestige
The final phase is called the prestige, where the wizard is the most difficult part of the trick. As explained in the film ‘The Prestige’ from 2006, the viewer is’ looking for the secret … but you will not find it, because of course you don’t really look. You don’t really want to know. You want to be fooled. ” “However, there is not enough to make something disappear; you have to bring it back.”

The difference is that this trick was designed to derail Trump and it worked. In the end, the special counsel and inspector general, however, both rejected the Russian collusion claims. The audience then re -elected Trump. Now the prestige can be revealed by the CIA.
Reports indicate that the CIA is about to declassify material that shows that foreign sources were also on the trick. The information reportedly indicates that foreign sources were aware of the move to create a Russian collusion scandal and expected the FBI to play a role in the plan. That was before the agency launched his controversial Crossfire Orchanese. One source said that foreign intelligence predicted the movement “with alarming specificity.”
The most recently declassified material shows that the Russian actors in 2016 have hacked e -mails from the Open Society Foundations, formerly known as the Soros Foundation. The e -mails show an even wider circle of activists and allies who were aware of the Clinton -entry.
Leonard Bernardo, who was regional director of Eurasia at the Open Society Foundations, explained that “during the first phase of the campaign, due to a lack of direct evidence, it was decided to distribute the necessary information via the FBI connected … where the information would subsequently be distributed by leading American publications.”
Bernardo added: “Julie (Clinton Campaign Advisor) says it will be a long -term affair to demonize Putin and Trump. Now it is good for a bouncing after the convention. Later the FBI will put more oil in the fire.”

The media (including the Washington Post and the New York Times, which won Pulitzer prizes for reporting on the disadvantaged claims) are appoplectically when rejecting these disclosures. The last thing they will do is report about how they helped to sell a political hoax. The problem is that they never said it was a trick. They said it was the truth. That is why the great revelations of CIA director John Ratcliff have this city on the edge of the chair.
It seems that everyone was on the trick: the US government, the media, even foreign governments. The only chumps were the American people. Now they are about to see how it was done.
