EXCERPT:
BONGINO: “Here is — the best way to envision this, folks, is to look at it like a push-pull operation. If you were going to frame someone, which I’m absolutely certain Papadopoulus was set up, certain, Mifsud was not a Russian entity, okay, he was not. Envision it as a push-pull operation. If I want to frame you for a bank robbery you didn’t commit, I have to push information into your orbit first about this bank robbery that will be pulled out later by someone working in law enforcement to make you look like a middleman. It’s a push-pull. Mifsud is the push. He pushes information into Papadopoulus about Russian e-mails, which Downer and Halper, Central Intelligence Agency asset working for the United States government, tried to pull out later to make Papadopoulus look like a cutout here. The problem is, everyone in this space, Brian, everyone is deeply connected to Western Intelligence. Halper, downer, they’re all connected to friendlies."
