Court Filing: Obama Holdover Heading Office Under Investigation for ‘Illegally Leaked' Classified Document | |
2019-12-02 | |
According to a Nov. 21 report by independent journalist Sara Carter, U.S. Attorney John Durham is questioning personnel in the Pentagon’s Office of Net Assessment (ONA). ONA awarded about $1 million in contracts to FBI informant Stefan Halper, who appears to have played a key role in alleged U.S. intelligence agency spying on 2016 Trump campaign advisers Carter Page and George Papadopoulos. In addition, however, a court filing indicates that ONA’s director, James H. Baker, “is believed to be the person who illegally leaked the transcript of Mr. Flynn’s calls” to The Washington Post. Specifically, the filing states, “ONA Director Baker regularly lunched with Washington Post Reporter David Ignatius.” The filing adds that Baker “was Halper’s ‘handler’” at ONA. Moreover, according to the court filing, the tasks assigned to “known long-time operative for the CIA/FBI” Halper “seem to have included slandering Mr. Flynn with accusations of having an affair with a young professor (a British national of Russian descent).” Baker didn’t respond to a request for comment by The Epoch Times as of press time. The filing notes that Flynn’s defense team has requested phone records for then-Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, likewise in order to confirm contacts with Ignatius. The filing singles out records for Jan. 10, 2017, when, according to the filing, “Clapper told Ignatius in words to the effect of ‘take the kill shot on Flynn.’” Clapper didn’t respond to a request for comment by The Epoch Times as of press time. The Pentagon’s current inspector general has already found that Baker’s office “did not maintain documentation of the work performed by Professor Halper or any communication that ONA personnel had with Professor Halper.” As a result, according to the inspector general, ONA staff “could not provide sufficient documentation that Professor Halper conducted all of his work in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.” Acting Pentagon Inspector General Glenn A. Fine in November 2017 started an investigation into charges that Baker retaliated against a whistleblower who red-flagged “rigged” contracts, including Halper’s. Another $11 million in contracts under scrutiny went to the Long Term Strategy Group (LTSG), which is run by a schoolmate of Chelsea Clinton, whom she has referred to as her “best friend.” Related: Michael Flynn: 2019-11-29 The Real Reason the Dems Want Trump Gone Michael Flynn: 2019-11-28 Why Federal Prosecutors Now Want To Delay Michael Flynn's Sentencing Michael Flynn: 2019-11-15 Mueller's Ethically-Challenged ‘Pit Bull' Andrew Weissmann Joins NBC as ‘Legal Analyst' Related: Stefan Halper: 2019-11-28 Whitewash update: Horowitz FBI Didn't Spy On Trump's Campaign Stefan Halper: 2019-11-04 CIA, FBI Informant Was Washington Post Source For Russiagate Smears Stefan Halper: 2019-09-22 The DS and Brennan scheme to destroy Mike Flynn may be falling apart Related: David Ignatius: 2019-11-04 CIA, FBI Informant Was Washington Post Source For Russiagate Smears David Ignatius: 2019-10-31 Why Is Vindman a War Hero but Flynn a Traitor?

#1 ... Another $11 million in contracts under scrutiny went to the Long Term Strategy Group (LTSG), which is run by a schoolmate of Chelsea Clinton, whom she has referred to as her “best friend.” According to the whistleblower’s attorney, “Baker’s interest was his awareness of the LTSG-Clinton connection; his presumptive desire to exploit that to his advantage in the event of a Clinton election win; and the fact that contractors like LTSG served as a lucrative landing pad for ONA retirees.” ... |
