FBI probe into Trump and Russia was codenamed 'Crossfire Hurricane'
By Josh Delk - 05/16/18 02:02 PM EDT

The FBI investigation into the Trump campaign's ties to Russia was originally known as "Crossfire Hurricane," before it was widely known to the public and even the bureau itself, officials told The New York Times,

The case, named after a Rolling Stones lyric, was used by only the small group of inside agents, who had interviewed the Australian ambassador to the United Kingdom, who had evidence of possible collusion between Russia and a Trump adviser.

Five agents embarked to London in the summer of 2016 for a rare interview with the diplomat after deliberations between the American and Australian officials, where they gathered information that would provide the basis for the Russia probe that is still ongoing.

Too bad the investigation was part of the Democrat collusion and ultimate coup attempt against Trump to put Hillary in power, or bring him down if she lost.

I have heard much lately about the Clinton investigations, have you, @Free Vulcan?  I know they're still checking into the emails and the UraniumOne probe is still ongoing.

DoJ just said they've written the first draft of the Clinton Email probe by the IG.

Thank you for this, @Cyber Liberty.  This will be really interesting reading!  But i don't think it covers whether Clinton did anything wrong.  I want them to thoroughly finish all the Clinton and Trump stuff so we can move on.

Move on?  To where?  Never going to happen, if somebody can get some political gain from it.  It's the way the game is played, now that somebody figured out it's possible to criminalize differences in policy.  Scandals will never end, now that the press has gotten into the game.

Fingers crossed that you're wrong ;).  But I'm sure you're probably right.  We'd all have to agree to a clean start ;(.
