FBI Sent Honeypot to Spy on Papadopoulos

RUSH: I just received a tweet that I don’t believe. I’m scratching my head about this. So I’m in the process of running this down, but it looks legit. The way I’m looking at this, this is bombshell, and the fact the New York Times is reporting this is something I can’t believe, because it undercuts their position the past 2-1/2 years on this whole Trump-Russia collusion business. But first, before I give you the details, it’s about the Papadopoulos story.

Now, one thing that I have not mentioned when I’ve told you the Papadopoulos story all the many times I’ve told you, is that a woman is involved — a seductress of sorts — who was presented to Papadopoulos by both Mifsud and Stefan Halper. I think it was Halper’s assistant, a teaching assistant, a professor’s assistant, and she was used as a lure. … they’re the ones that tell him that the Russians have 30,000 Hillary emails, and they’re arranging speaking engagements for him and paying him first class airfare and hotel and a $3,000 stipend to come over and make the speech in the U.K. They’re really working him, and part of the (sigh) lure was one of the teaching assistants of one of the professors.

It was either Mifsud or Halper. Now, Joseph Mifsud and Stefan Halper both interacted with Papadopoulos on this whole scheme, if you will. But one of them had this female teacher who they sent to have drinks with Papadopoulos. Think, you know, honeypot-type thing. I’ve just left her out of the stories because she was an incidental figure. She was window dressing. But she was a key ingredient in helping them lure Papadopoulos into the purpose they had for him.
