But the Crown must, on the other hand, submit to the necessary consequences of representative institutions; and if it has to carry on the Government in unison with a representative body, it must consent to carry it on by means of those in whom that representative body has confidence. Eric HotchkissSenior Government Information SpecialistOffice of Information Policy, Subject: RE: Freedom of Information Act Request #FOIA-2021-01633. Thank you,-----------------------------------------Initial Request StaffOffice of Information PolicyU.S. The FBIs interviews of Danchenko establish that the most salacious allegation in the Steele Dossierthat Trump was present during the performance of a lewd act at the Moscow Ritz-Carltonwas fabricated by Danchenko and/or Charles Dolan, a public relations executive living in Washington, D.C., with lengthy ties to the Democratic Party. According to Durham, the core allegation of the Steele Dossierthat an extensive conspiracy existed between the Trump campaign and the Kremlinwas invented out of whole cloth by former Brookings Institution policy analyst Igor Danchenko, a Russian national on Steeles payroll. II. In July, Dolan gifted Clintons autobiography to Galkina, inscribing it with To my good friend [Olga], A Great Democrat.REF Galkina apparently harbored ambitions to move to the U.S. if Clinton won the election. 0000002535 00000 n

In total, Hillary for America (through Fusion GPS) paid Steele $168,000 for his efforts.REF, Durhams investigation has revealed that Steeles key sources for the dossier were not senior Russian officials or savvy Kremlin insiders, but rather Igor Danchenko (a Washington, D.C.based policy analyst); Charles Dolan, Jr. (a Washington, D.C.based public relations executive with a long history of working in Democrat Party politics); and Olga Galkina (a Cyprus-based Russian national who was a press secretary to a Russian tech company but had dreams of serving in a future Clinton State Department).REF, These dubious sources did not, in fact, provide any actual evidence of a conspiracy between Trump and Russia.

Unravelling all of the major and minor players in Hillary for Americas disinformation campaign is daunting. Want the latest investigative and FOIA news? Durhams filings indicate that the central component of the joint ventures disinformation campaignthe so-called Steele Dossierconsisted almost entirely of rumors, innuendo, and outright falsehoods fabricated by sources reporting to former British spy Christopher Steele. Among the key takeaways from the Durham investigation: The Durham investigation has seemingly uncovered a coordinated effort by Hillary for America; the Perkins Coie law firm (a Washington, D.C.-based law firm that was retained by Hillary for America to represent the campaign during the 2016 election); strategic intelligence firm Fusion GPS; former British spy Christopher Steele of Orbis Business Intelligence; and various computer researchers based in Virginia, Rhode Island, and at Georgia Tech to generate false, misleading, and sometimes sensational allegations against then-candidate Donald Trump in an effort to win the 2016 presidential election. The officers of the Durham Police Department are committed to protecting and serving all members of our community. This led to the Act of Union, 1840. While opposition research will continue to be a standard part of political campaigns, the actions taken by Hillary for America and its agents should be condemned so that such actions are never repeated by any political campaign in the future.

Indeed, Fusion GPSs office in Washington, D.C., became something of a public reading room for journalists who were looking for information about Trump.REF According to published reports, Glenn Simpson and Peter Fritsch aggressively shopped the false opposition research: Fusion GPS pressured reporters at several media outlets to publish the false Alfa-Bank disinformation.
