IT’S HAPPENING: Attorney General Bill Barr Asks Foreign Intelligence Officials For Help with Spygate Probe


US Attorney General William Barr

It was previously reported that US Attorney General Bill Barr traveled to Italy on Friday on official business to speak to Italian officials.

According to a new report by the Washington Post, AG Barr held private meetings overseas with foreign intelligence officials asking for their help in the Justice Department’s Spygate probe.

The criminal Obama Administration unleashed foreign governments to spy on Donald Trump’s 2016 campaign, but now that Trump, as president of the United States is directing his Attorney General to meet with those foreign leaders in order to expose Obama’s corrupt Spygate operation, the Dems want his head on a platter.

Attorney General William P. Barr has held private meetings overseas with foreign intelligence officials seeking their help in a Justice Department inquiry that President Trump hopes will discredit U.S. intelligence agencies’ examination of Russian interference in the 2016 election, according to people familiar with the matter.

The direct involvement of the nation’s top law enforcement official shows the priority Barr places on the investigation being conducted by John Durham, the U.S. attorney in Connecticut, who has been assigned the sensitive task of reviewing U.S. intelligence work surrounding the 2016 election and its aftermath.

Barr has already made overtures to British intelligence officials, and last week the attorney general traveled to Italy, where he and Durham met senior Italian government officials and Barr asked the Italians to assist Durham, according to one person familiar with the matter. It was not Barr’s first trip to Italy to meet intelligence officials, the person said. The Trump administration has made similar requests of Australia, these people said.

As previously noted, there are suggestions that Italian officials were working with the US Deep State in 2016 to set up Trump campaign officials.

Candidate Trump’s unpaid foreign policy advisor George Papadopoulos was spied on by the Deep State through a Maltese professor named Joseph Mifsud.

Mifsud’s purpose was to plant information with Papadopoulos (namely that the Russians had Hillary’s emails) so that the same information could be retrieved from Papadopoulos and the Deep State could say that the Trump campaign knew Russia had Hillary’s emails.

The fake news narrative claims Papadopoulos then bragged to Australian diplomat Alexander Downer that he heard the Russians had dirt on Clinton — Downer then shared this information from Papadopoulos with fellow Australian officials.

Attorney General Bill Barr and US Attorney John Durham traveled to Italy to meet with Italian government officials on Friday, and according to WaPo, Barr asked the Italians to assist Durham.

No wonder why the Deep State-Democrat-media complex is going crazy with leaks and impeachment hearings — they fear AG Bill Barr and Durham will finally hold the coup plotters accountable.
