Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump - Video: Brand new details about how Obama's CIA targeted Trump and started the entire Russia hoax.
For years, we were told that tips from an Australian diplomat tipped off the FBI after a random conversation with Papadopoulos, a no-name 20-something.
But according to new reporting by Michael Shellenberger and Matt Taibbi, the whole thing was a CIA setup.
Former CIA director John Brennan identified 26 Trump associates to be targeted by the Five Eyes Intelligence Alliance, and then those interactions were the targets, and were targeted by the FBI as "suspicious."
And that's how the FBI launched the Russia collusion hoax.
The details of this entire operation have been stored in a Top Secret binder in a secret room in Washington.
Trump ordered the whole thing declassified.
And now the rumor is that the binder might be missing.
-
Joining me now, one of the reporters who broke the story, Michael Shellenberger. Michael, explain how this all started with the CIA picking these 26 Trump people.

-
Yeah, good to be with you, Jesse. Well, obviously, this is an extremely serious story and serious allegation by multiple credible sources that Public and Racket, that's Matt Taibbi's publication, have spoken to.
These are people that are close to the House Intelligence investigation of how the Russia collusion hoax began.
The story, as you mentioned, was that, "oh, we were just informed by foreign intelligence about this."
Our sources tell us a very different story, which is that this was initiated by the U.S. government.
It came from within the U.S. government's intelligence community, including the CIA.
That they asked the so-called Five Eyes Nations intelligence agencies - that's the other English-speaking nations, including Britain and Australia - to spy on 26 Trump associates, or at least they had a list of the 26 associates that were identified.
This is new information. Some people have theorized about this and speculated about it.
We feel very confident that our sources were in a position to know and are very credible in this report.
It's obviously a very serious allegation because this is illegal spying and it's illegal election interference.
-
Okay, so you're reporting that the CIA got these allies to bump these 26 Trump associates, create interactions and then call these interactions suspicious and let the FBI know they were suspicious and that starts the whole thing.
What about this binder that encapsulates this whole thing and no one knows where it is right now or Trump has it?
What's that?
-
Well, Jesse, we'll have a piece tomorrow that is specifically about the binder.
But as a friend of the show and of yours on this, I'll say that there has been widespread speculation that this binder was the was the reason or a reason for the FBI raid of Mar-a-Lago.
And we'll be discussing that tomorrow.
-
But obviously, if this binder contains what we have been told that it contains, which may include raw intelligence, information showing that the U.S. government, the CIA and the intelligence community of the U.S. government, initiated the Russia collusion hoax, that it did not occur in the way that the official story, including the Durham investigation, had portrayed it, then that's extremely serious information.
