      5 days after the release of the HPSCI Russia report, Michael Caputo realized he and Roger Stone had perjured themselves, and HPSCI drew conclusions about "collusion" based on that perjury. And he said nothing for 2 months.

      Do you have any interest in Greenberg at all? Or does that not matter to you, like Mifsud?

      I think it would be pure invention on your part to claim I don't care about either one of them. I'm just not so stupid as to invent an FBI plot out of them, in spite of all the evidence that it doesn't exist.

      There's plenty of evidence that Greenberg was an FBI informant, as the WaPo article explained. We know that Strzok mentioned using oconus lures. We know Stephen Halper was asking Page and Papadopoulos about stolen emails. Doesn't this warrant a bit more curiosity?

      Halper asked Page abt emails? Do you know what oconus lures are?

      Sorry, just Papadopoulos, but presumably Halper was also spying/informing on Page. My understanding is that ocunus lures refer to spies/informants used outside of the US. Maybe you can clarify if that's not the case. It's interesting that the FBI initially retracted that text.

      Why would you call someone working for the USG, a lifetime Republican using the least intrusive means to chase down real leads on Russians trying to infiltrate a campaign, a spy?

      What "real leads" of Russians trying to infiltrate a campaign did Halper have re Page in July 2016? I'm not really interested in the semantics. I'm fine calling him an informant.

      Remember, the FBI interviewed Page in March 2016. He then continued to contact Russians of interest, and gave a curious speech in Russia. We don't know all the details of what caused them to interview him in March, but that's a high degree of predication.

      Fair enough. Maybe that's case. (Again we deserve to know, irrespective of Mueller investigation) ... But this would mean that the investigation didn't start with Downer's meeting with Papadopoulos in late July.

      "The investigation"? You seem to have fallen for Trump propaganda. There was predicate to investigate Page and Manafort before they joined the campaign. So FBI investigating Page before and during is not "the investigation."
