Will He Be Dragged For Treason? Obama Accepted Unsolicited Intelligence From A Foreign Source During 2016 Election

In July 2016, the Obama administration accepted unsolicited information from Alexander Downer, an Australian diplomat who just happened to have helped arrange a $25 million government donation to the Clinton Foundation years before. Downer said that he had witnessed a Trump campaign aide, George Papadopoulos, bragging about some dirt that the Russians supposedly had on Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton.

In October 2016, less than three weeks from Election Day, the Obama Justice Department approved a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act warrant to spy on the Trump campaign through its former adviser, Carter Page. The primary evidence supporting the warrant? A dossier written by a foreign friendly named Christopher Steele, a retired MI6 intelligence agent from Great Britain. Of course, the Justice Department and the FBI forgot to tell the courts that Steele actually was working on behalf of the Clinton campaign, but that’s a small detail for the purpose of this column.

Gee—that sounds eerily familiar, right? Will Obama now be dragged through the mud for committing treason, as Solomon notes in the headline of this piece? If there were an example of selective outrage or liberal media bias, well, this is it.

No he won't. The main difference is Australia is one of our allies and while Russia is one of trump's allies, it isn't one of the US allies.

Stop trying to hijack the thread. If it matters to you, start one of your own.
This one doesn't include those subjects.

That’s why you heard about 17 Intelligence agencies knew about the Dossier. Only the top three IA’s can handle raw intelligence. Obama wanted it leaked.

Interesting - MM accuses anyone with a different opinion of thread hijacking.

Barr has the origins of the Mueller investigation underway.
If Obama administration accepted dirt from a foreign country - bring it out to the Sunshine where the LSM cannot bury and deny it.

Let's have the facts come to light!!!
