Is there anything scarier on Halloween than Hillary Clinton?
On Oct. 31, 2016, the then-Democrat presidential candidate took to Twitter days before the election to proclaim: “Computer scientists have apparently uncovered a covert server linking the Trump Organization to a Russian-based bank.”
Will anyone in Hillary Clinton’s orbit ever be held accountable for the Russiagate hoax?Clinton attached a press release from her campaign in which top adviser Jake Sullivan, responding to a report from Slate, states: “This could be the most direct link yet between Donald Trump and Moscow. Computer scientists of apparently uncovered a covert server linking the Trump Organization to a Russian-based bank.”
Now, days before the 2024 election, has anyone from the Clinton team that perpetrated the hoax or the deep state denizens who pursued it been held accountable?
Bueller?
The Russian-based bank Sullivan, who by the way is still Joe Biden’s national security adviser, was talking about is Alfa Bank.
In a June 2022 analysis, Rowan Scarborough of The Washington Times noted: “We can lower the Alfa casket next to the infamous Democratic-financed dossier as well as a list of other Russia scandals that never happened.”
FBI testimony at the trial of former Clinton campaign lawyer Michael Sussmann showed the 2016 Internet data he presented to journalists and former FBI General Counsel James A. Baker was shoddy.
A D.C. jury found Sussmann not guilty on May 31 on the charge of lying to the FBI.
There’s that accountability answer again.

Which brings us to a new book by Lee Smith titled “The Disappearing of the President: Trump, Truth Social, and the Fight for the Republic“.
Mark Judge notes in a report for the Washington Examiner: “The details in Disappearing of the President are still incredible: the Clinton campaign, eager to change the subject from Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton’s questionable behavior using a private computer server to conduct official government business, compiled a phony dossier claiming that Trump was ‘colluding’ with the Russians. They got phone FISA warrants thanks to plotters in the intelligence community and sketchy judges — not to mention some underhanded tweaking to the system by Obama.
“The FBI and intelligence agency warrants to spy on the Trump campaign were laughable. Still, Biden supporter and FBI Director Comey ‘briefed’ Trump on the fake Russia nonsense, then leaked the meeting to the media, which spent three years trying to destroy the innocent and newly-elected president of the United States. The intelligence agencies set up Trump staffers such as General Michael Flynn, and liberal savior Robert Mueller wasted three years and millions of dollars to conclude that there had been no collusion. Yet the damage had been done.
“What makes The Disappearing of the President so valuable is that Smith is an honest and thorough journalist. He doesn’t get distracted by weird conspiracy theories. He cites reliable sources and conducts interviews. There’s no need to talk about the government controlling the weather or COVID-19 vaccine conspiracies when the truth of what the government actually does is much more terrible. People who are ambivalent about Trump or who have sometimes been put off by his abrasive personality will, even if not voting for Trump, find themselves disturbed by what Smith has compiled here.
“Again, he is describing not the usual political warfare, but lawlessness. Nobody who took part in the Russiagate hoax has been punished. They never will be.”
By the way, that Oct. 31, 2016 tweet by Hillary is still up.
Eight years ago today, Hillary tweeted that “computer scientists” had uncovered a Trump-Russia link. What she did not mention was that those “computer scientists” were her own campaign operatives and that she had orchestrated the entire hoax. No one has ever been held to account. https://t.co/y5KpjbH2vb
