President Trump
mentioned CrowdStrike
during his July 2019
phone call with the new
Ukrainian president.
The Ukraine had once
hired CrowdStrike, and
then objected to their claim
that Russia was hacking
the GPS systems of their
Ukraine artillery
to locate them --
CrowdStrike
later changed
their conclusion.
CrowdStrike has
a history of claiming
they can locate the
countrty where a
hacker was located.
And they usually claim
Russia, China or North
Korea -- all are countries
that would never
assist in locating
any hackers.
So it's impossible
to prove CrowdStrike
is lying, but I am
confident they are.
CrowdStrike’s June 2016
assessment is the ONLY
source of the alleged
Russian interference
with the Democrat
National Committee.
It was quickly spun
by the DNC, or the
Hillary campaign,
into the now
infamous, fake
Trump-Russia
collusion claim,
that lasted almost
three years, until
the Mueller Report
was released.
Although some
mentally challenged
Democrats still
believe the Russian
Collusion Delusion.
CrowdStrike was the
only cyber-security firm
hired by the Democrat
National Committee
to investigate the alleged
hack of its email system
in early 2016.
CrowdStrike very quickly
produced never verified
"evidence", later used
to convince Americans
that Russians breached
the DNC’s email system.
I don't believe
the CrowdStrike claim,
for five reasons:
(1)
WikiLeaks claimed
they got DNC e-mails
on a flash drive,
from a DNC insider,
who was angry
that Bernie Sanders
faced DNC rules
biased against him.
No evidence was ever
produced to prove
WikiLeaks was lying.
(2)
The location
of hackers
is almost
impossible
to determine
unless they are
caught in the act,
which didn't happen.
Sophisticated hackers
can leave fake "clues"
that point to another
country,
(3)
Politicians are notorious liars,
especially Democrats with
the surname "Clinton".
(4)
Blaming Russia,
and then claiming
Trump was colluding
with Russia, was an
ideal narrative
to divert attention
away from the DNC,
and apply lots of
negative attention
on candidate Trump,
and
(5)
The DNC refused
to surrender
its email devices
to the very friendly
Obama FBI,
to allow them to verify
CrowdStrike's claim !
Shawn Henry,
an NBC News analyst,
happens to be president
of CrowdStrike’s
Washington operation.
He is a regular contributor
to MSNBC and NBC News
programs.
Henry worked
with the FBI until 2012,
and presents himself
as an FBI “expert,”
on a variety of
political issues.
His views
are always
the opposite
of Donald Trump.
Henry's affiliation
with CrowdStrike
is never mentioned.
Henry also worked
for Robert Mueller’s FBI
during Barack Obama’s
first term.
Perkins Coie is a
politically-influential
law firm based in D.C.,
They hired CrowdStrike
in spring 2016 on behalf
of the DNC.
Obama's FBI, and every
other Obama agency,
were kept away from
the DNC computers.
Perkins Cole also hired
Fusion GPS—who in turn
hired British ex-spy
Christopher Steele
to author his infamous
"Trump Dossier".
That "Dossier"
attacked candidate Trump
with disinformation
allegedly provided
by Russian government
officials ( per Mr. Steele )
-- contradicting the claim
that "the Russians"
supported Trump.
According to
disclosure reports,
the DNC paid
Perkins Coie
$7.2 million
during the 2016
election cycle.
While CrowdStrike
was working for the DNC
in 2016, the firm
also collaborated
with key officials
in the Obama Justice
Department as
the FNBI was ramping up
an unjustified investigation
into Trump’s presidential
campaign.
Before Obama’s intelligence
officials released a statement
on October 7, 2016,
that blamed the Russians
for the DNC email breach,
according to an Esquire article,
Dmitri Alperovitch, CrowdStrike’s
co-founder, was given a heads-up.
“Alperovitch got a phone call
from a senior government official
alerting him that a statement
identifying Russia as the sponsor
of the DNC attack would soon
be released. Once again,
Alperovitch was thanked
for pushing the government along.”
The October 7, 2016 statement,
issued by Obama’s Department
of Homeland Security and
Director of National Intelligence
James Clapper, one month
before Election Day, lifted
some of the wording from
CrowdStrike’s report
on the DNC breach.
CrowdStrike previously had
a contract with the FBI
for $150,000 between
July 2015 and July 2016
for unknown services.
Trump haters
dismiss any questions
about CrowdStrike
as part of a Republican
“conspiracy theory.”
But the the firm played
the critical early role
in allowing the creation
of the Trump - Russia
of the Trump - Russia
collusion hoax.
