The Re-Education with Eli Lake
Did the New York Times Know That There Was an Open Fbi Counter Intelligence Investigation?
New York Times knew that the fbi had an open counter intelligence investigation under way into possible contacts between people associated with then presidential candidate donald trump and russia. New york times instead ran this rather infamous story, also on october 30 first, saying, yes, you know, the fbi looked into some stuff about tramp. People've been asking questions about russia and stuff. Turns out it's all fine. There's nothing there. The special council appointed to investigate trump russia found no evidence of a trump russia conspiracy. In other words, the tip from susman, presented as a concerned citizen aiding law enforcemen, was, in reality, partisan garbage.
