REPORT: Barack Obama Paid Nearly $1 Million To Firm That Created Fake Trump Dossier

Looks like somebody dug-up some records from the Federal Election Commission website that coincidentally find some payout records to the well known name of "Perkins Coie".

The article seems to dodge around with several web links, but not the one on the FEC website that shows the actual payouts.

The payouts happened in the 2015-2016 time period.

And they were from "Obama For America" (apparently for "Legal Services").

!! Very suspicious and very coincidental !!

Former president Barack Obama’s official campaign organization has directed nearly a million dollars to the same law firm that funneled money to Fusion GPS, the firm behind the infamous Steele dossier. Since April of 2016, Obama For America (OFA) has paid over $972,000 to Perkins Coie, records filed with the Federal Election Commission (FEC) show.

The Washington Post reported last week that Perkins Coie, an international law firm, was directed by both the Democratic National Committee (DNC) and Hillary Clinton’s campaign to retain Fusion GPS in April of 2016 to dig up dirt on then-candidate Donald Trump.

…OFA, Obama’s official campaign arm in 2016, paid nearly $800,000 to Perkins Coie in 2016 alone, according to FEC records. The first 2016 payments to Perkins Coie, classified only as “Legal Services,” were made April 25-26, 2016, and totaled $98,047. A second batch of payments, also classified as “Legal Services,” were disbursed to the law firm on September 29, 2016, and totaled exactly $700,000. Payments from OFA to Perkins Coie in 2017 totaled $174,725 through August 22, 2017.

Uh oh!

It really is layers of an onion being peeled back layer, by layer, can not wait to see where all of this goes!!

Hm. The Trump camp and the conservative supporters are melting down.

Who's to say that specific money Obama is reportedly responsible for paying made its way into the hands of FusionGPS?

You can pay a law firm, and that law firm may have many, many clients...

The projection is obvious.

The distraction attempts are obvious.

It this was the old Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles video game, Trump would be flashing very quickly right now!!!

The swamp is indeed deep and wide.

Oh you are absolutely correct about that, we have sat through 10 months of it, all leading right back into the den of snakes that occupied the Obama/Clinton administration, which was just a continuation of the same snakes during Bush/Clinton/Bush.

What you fail to understand is that independents/conservatives/liberals alike, that informed themselves about the way the deep state works united and either did not vote (once they screwed Bernie) or voted for Trump.

Have fun tomorrow!

It's now up to them to prove the money wasn't for campaign political purposes.

Can't wait for the excuses.

Have you noticed that all this stuff reminds one of the Chicago politics and corruption of the 70s and 80s.. Everyone seemed to know about the Hanky Panky but nothing was done until the power players were gone/dead..
"Hey it worked in Chicago so let's do the same game plan but on a national scale. We have the FBI, the DOJ, and many in the CIA that will cover our butts and block any investigation...so why not" ?

Wow! So, Obama's political PAC, along with the owners of The Beacon, Jeb Bush, John McCain, and other Republicans that haven't been named, along with the DNC and possibly Clinton's PAC all contributed to a FAKE dossier?

Why worry about how those people wasted their money on Faked dossiers?

a reply to: xuenchen

Great find.

My fisrt thought was perhaps the source was shady.

So I went straight to the FEC filings, and low and behold its all right there.

So the same firm that was paying for dirt on Trump from Kremlin officials is not only being paid by Hillarys people, but Obamas too.

And then Obamas FBI may have taken that dirt, and used it to get Fisa warrants, so that they could spy on Trump.

But we know, just another coincidence that is a distraction.

*ahem*

Perkins Coie is also the firm that retrieved the *cough* certified copy of his long form birth certificate.

Because you literally just described the public face of the deep state!!

Ding ding ding, we have a winner!

It is a cross party show and they are all being exposed!

Exciting times!

What's the point of this?

What does this prove?

He had a working relationship for a long time with a law firm colluding with Kremlin officials to dig up dirt on Trump. Then he may have used that dirt in the investigation.

Imagine if a law firm Trump paid started paying Kremlin officials for dirt on Democrats, and then trump used that dirt to investigate Democrats.

There would be riots in the streets.

LOL Watching you guys squirm over this whole thing has been great entertainment. Trump is gonna expose them all for their corruption.

I think by then of his term he will be the most popular POTUS of all time because he is going to show us how dirty everyone, right , left , and middle is and was.

So Trump contends it's a "fake" dossier...

Why would I trust the word of Trump on this, didn't he have "the best people" in Hawaii a few years ago who were reported to have uncovered Obama's birth certificate fraud?

What ever happened to Trump's birth certificate investigation of Obama? I remember him saying very clearly years ago his people were on the verge of releasing something very, very damaging.

Then? Nothing.

So everyone excuse me if I find it hard to accept the word of Trump about this dossier being "fake" when he himself pulled a fast on on the American people years ago with his "birther" nonsense.

If we were squirming, we'd be making up sensational stories and trying to distract the public. We aren't, but I do see a certain group of people doing just that...

a reply to: xuenchen

Still many things we do not know about the man with the big ears.

But it was obtained illegally !!

BwaaaaaaHaHaHa

Even "Steele" said so.
