RUSH: “TheHill.com: Ukrainian Prosecutor Investigating Alleged Plot To Aid Hillary Clinton.<\/a>\u201d This story you will not see in the Drive-By Media. There are two versions of this, one by Sara Carter and the other is by John Solomon. \u201cUkrainian Prosecutor General Yuriy Lutsenko said he opened an investigation into alleged attempts by Ukrainians to interfere in the United States\u2019 2016 presidential election on behalf of Hillary Clinton.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"Would this not be the piece de — there wasn\u2019t any Russian collusion with Trump. What if there actually was Ukrainian collusion with Hillary? And it makes sense because the Ukrainians hate Putin! The Ukrainians despise Putin, and they don\u2019t have a whole lot of love for Putin\u2019s Russia. And so the Ukrainians colluding with Hillary, they would do this because the assumption they would make is that Putin wants no part of Hillary. I don\u2019t know about any of that.<\/p>\n

But wouldn\u2019t this just be amazing. \u201cIn an interview that aired Wednesday with The Hill\u2019s TV, John Solomon Lutsenko said, \u2018today we will launch a criminal investigation about this and we will give legal assessment of this information.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s Solomon\u2019s story. He reports that \u201cUkraine\u2019s top prosecutor has opened an investigation into whether his country\u2019s law enforcement apparatus intentionally leaked\u201d
\nPaul Manafort\u2019s financial records in order to help Hillary win in 2016. That, by the way, is the dirt that led to Manafort leaving the Trump campaign.<\/p>\n

Let me go over this again. We\u2019re kind of in a lighthearted, jocular mood here today in spurts, but this deserves some serious explanation. And by the, the headline that\u2019s attached here to John Solomon\u2019s story: \u201cAs Russia Collusion Fades, Ukrainian Plot to Help Clinton Emerges<\/a>.\u201d So we\u2019re back to is Russian collusion really fading? There wasn\u2019t — don\u2019t misunderstand. There wasn\u2019t any. But is that really what the Mueller report is gonna say?<\/p>\n

So many leaks, so much lowering of expectations about this. And I just know how much people try to manipulate us on the left, the Democrat Party. But then again we got Trump out there suggesting that he thinks this report ought to be made public, which would tend to indicate that he\u2019s not worried about it, and so he maybe not be worried about it because he\u2019s been given a heads-up. He says he doesn\u2019t know what\u2019s in it.<\/p>\n

But, anyway, let\u2019s look at this. \u201cUkraine\u2019s top prosecutor divulged in an interview aired Wednesday on Hill.TV that he has opened an investigation into whether his country\u2019s law enforcement apparatus intentionally leaked financial records during the 2016 U.S. presidential campaign about then-Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort in an effort to sway the election in favor of Hillary Clinton.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe leak of the so-called black ledger files to U.S. media prompted Manafort\u2019s resignation from the Trump campaign and gave rise to one of the key allegations in the Russia collusion probe that has dogged Trump for the last two and a half years.\u201d<\/p>\n

This dirt is what did in fact lead to Manafort leaving the Trump campaign. And it\u2019s what led to Manafort being investigated by Mueller. By the way, not a single lawmaker was contacted by the FBI or the CIA about the Ukraine government being involved in our election this way. It really isn\u2019t anything new, it\u2019s just being reported here for the first time.<\/p>\n

\"\"Solomon got his mitts on it. But the FBI, CIA, nobody there was contacted about the possible Ukrainian collusion with the Clinton campaign. And that\u2019s an amazing contrast, is it not, compared to how the FBI and CIA warned a number of lawmakers about Trump\u2019s possible collusion with Russia, which never happened?<\/p>\n

But they weren\u2019t out there warning politicians, hey, be very wary the Ukrainians are trying to interfere in the election. Nobody was warned of that when was it happening! You know, we actually first heard about what Ukraine did to help Hillary back in January 2017. We pointed out then that there was a huge article, it was a hundred paragraphs that carefully detailed the work done by the Ukrainian operatives to undermine Trump in order to help Hillary, including giving the Democrat National Committee dirt on Manafort. Nobody has even denied that all of this happened, yet there\u2019s been no outrage at a foreign government interfering in our election. There wasn\u2019t even any Drive-By Media coverage of this story.<\/p>\n

Here it is. January 11, 2017, archives of The Politico. \u201cUkrainian Efforts to Sabotage Trump Backfire<\/a>.\u201d I don\u2019t expect you remember us talking about this, but I remember the story because it was the exact antithesis of what the American people have been told for two years.<\/p>\n

\u201cDonald Trump wasn\u2019t the only presidential candidate whose campaign was boosted by officials of a former Soviet bloc country. Ukrainian government officials tried to help Hillary Clinton and undermine Trump by publicly questioning his fitness for office. They also disseminated documents implicating a top Trump aide,\u201d Paul Manafort. \u201cAnd they helped Clinton\u2019s allies research damaging information on Trump and his advisers, a Politico investigation found.\u201d<\/p>\n

But the story ran in The Politico and nowhere else. January 2017. This is about 10 days before Trump is inaugurated and this story surfaces. And that\u2019s the story that Solomon and Sara Carter are zeroing back to today. And we\u2019ll see where this goes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
