Transcript of Russian Spies Discussing Carter Page

[orangecrush]

The Russian spies, however, had one promising lead. This was a guy—an energy consultant based in New York City. Unlike the women, he was eager to help. And, it appeared, keen to make money in Moscow. There was a drawback: The source—whom the FBI called “Male-1”—was something of a dimwit.

The FBI intercepts record:

PODOBNYY: wrote that he is sorry, he went to Moscow and forgot to check his inbox, but he wants to meet when he gets back. I think he is an idiot and forgot who I am. Plus he writes to me in Russian practise the language. He flies to Moscow more often than I do. He got hooked on Gazprom, thinking that if they have a project, he could rise up. Maybe he can. I don’t know, but it’s obvious he wants to earn loads of money.

SPORYSHEV: Without a doubt.

Podobnyy explained he intended to string Male-1 along. That meant feeding him “empty promises.” Podobnyy would play up his connections to Russia’s trade delegation, to Sporyshev, and pretend his SVR colleague might “push contracts” the American’s way.

PODOBNYY: This is intelligence method to cheat! How else to work with foreigners? You promise a favour for a favour. You get the documents from him and go tell him to fuck himself. But not to upset you I will take you to a restaurant and give you an expensive gift. You just need to sign for it. That is ideal working method.

The American willing to provide information to Putin’s foreign intelligence officers rented a working space at 590 Madison Avenue. The building was linked by a glass atrium to a well-known New York landmark, Trump Tower. The atrium had a pleasant courtyard, with bamboo trees, where you could sit and drink coffee. Next door was a franchise of Niketown.

From the atrium you could take the elevator up to the Trump Tower public garden on the fourth floor, with its sparrows and maple trees. The din from West 57th Street meant the garden wasn’t exactly tranquil. Or you could queue up with Japanese and German tourists at the Trump Tower basement restaurant and salad bar. Failing that, there was Starbucks on the first floor.

Male-1 had a name. At this point few had heard of him. He was Carter Page.

15. Transcript Carter Page House Intels testimony

In this lengthy transcript

Carter Page Exposes every poker hand he may ever have had, has, or can have.

He can't help himself. He is angrier than a hive of hornets.

It's like someone turned this young man while he was at the Naval Academy and then shipped to Russia as a MidShipman. He is hook, line, and sinker convinced his outline on Russia is 100% true.

Interestingly, his past reveals a conflict. If you dig a bit you will find that Page both speaks or does not speak fluent Russian although his bone fides state he studied Russia and his US NYC business partner is Russian.

[OhNo-Really]

16. All of Nunes/Trump talking points seem to be included in

Page's testimony which could be entitled "I am 100% innocent and the Clinton/Obama International Conspiracy is attacking me because I wrote a paper called After Boston..... in May, 2013" btw the same year Trump's Miss Universe played in Moscow.

[Angry Dragon]

24. thanks

[Cracklin Charlie]

2. Its on?

And Carter Paige is Trump’s Stay Puft Marshmallow Man.

[orangecrush]

6. It's on

[rzemanfl]

3. K&R. So they have to get validated spy receipts?

"... I will take you to a restaurant and give you an expensive gift. You just need to sign for it." LOL. n/t

[orangecrush]

5. like any other company

I guess.

[Docreed2003]

7. K&R

[orangecrush]

8. Thanks!

Gee, I wonder why they were watching him?

[Docreed2003]

9. Lol...

I quite certain it was only to get his secret borscht recipe!

[orangecrush]

20. ...

25. Thanks!

12. This was all from 2013, and the Russians were convicted. The significance is that the FBI

has been watching Carter ever since -- so they had plenty of reasons (aside from Papadopolous and other Trump connections) to want a FISA warrant on Carter.

[OhNo-Really]

17. Exactly

Page is totally Russia brain washed and Trump brain washed.

btw his NY office shared the lobby with Trump Towers and he had a Russian business partner.

[erronis]

21. So the RUSSRIA kompromat on Page must be enormous

He's probably a dead man walking whether on the streets of NYC or Moscow, or even in some safe-house. (Can I recommend some of the black sites featured by the CIA?)

The only way he survives is if his two bosses publicly declare their eternal love and declare all spawn are free of guilt. Vlad and Don embrace and the world is peaceful. Except for everyone else.

[OhNo-Really]

29. My deduction as well. "American Page" I'd see the movie

I did my hyper "Elaine dancing" research method. Dr. Page has had a colorful life.

No proof but seeking Page's help for Miss Universe 2013 by Trump Et Al would have made sense. 2013 is when the 1st FISA was approved by a dozen or more people required to sign off. Just speculating.

I wonder who taught him at the Naval Academy. Some one turned Page into a Russian prpoponent.

Seems there have been a few from Navy backgrounds that are fanatic. E Prince for one.

[erronis]

31. That's an interesting tie-in: Naval Academy cohorts. There are lots of threads in these groups.

[pnwmom]

22. I hadn't heard that about his NY office before. Interesting!

[orangecrush]

26. Nunes

is full of it, and I believe somehow tied up in this.

[Me.]

13. He Should Wipe That Grin Off His Face

He's nothing more than a low down dirty spy.

“In the worsening dispute between Putin and the Obama administration, Page sided with Moscow . He was against US sanctions imposed by Obama on Russia in the wake of Crimea. In a blog post for Global Policy, an online journal, he wrote that Putin wasn’t to blame for the 2014 Ukraine conflict. The White House’s superior “smack-down” approach had “started the crisis in the first place,” he wrote.”

“Page, by contrast, was the rarest of things: an American who apparently believed that Putin was wise and virtuous and kind.”

“Moscow sources suggest that certain people in the Russian government arranged Page’s visit. “We were told: ‘Can you bring this guy over?’” one source said, speaking on condition of anonymity.”

“Shaun Walker, the Guardian’s Russia correspondent, had attended an event given by Page the previous evening. He described Page’s PowerPoint presentation as “really weird.” “It looked as if it had been done for a Kazakhstan gas conference,” Walker said. “He was talking about the United States’ attempts to spread democracy, and how disgraceful they were.”

[Me.]

14. More Snippets

“According to an “associate,” Sechin was so keen to lift personal and corporate Western sanctions that he offered Page an unusual bribe. This was “the brokerage of up to a 19 per cent (privatized) stake in Rosneft in return.” In other words, a chunk of Rosneft was being sold off.”

“Sechin’s offer was the carrot.
There was also a stick.”

“The stick was flourished during Page’s alleged second meeting, with Diveykin. The official reportedly told Page that the Kremlin had assembled a dossier of compromising materal on Clinton. And might possibly give it to Trump’s campaign. However, according to Steele, Diveykin also delivered an ominous warning. He hinted—or even “indicated more strongly”—that the Russian leadership had damaging material on Trump, too. Trump “should bear this in mind” in his dealings with Moscow, Diveykin said.
This was blackmail, clear and simple.”

32. Glad I could share it!

Thanks you!

[liberalla]

23. very kick-worthy!

Thanks!

28. Thank you!

For reading!

[mr_lebowski]

33. Just stumbled on this article elsewhere and it's ABSOLUTELY CRITICAL READING EVERYONE ...

This guy deserves not just surveillance, but FREAKING EXILE FROM THE USA.

What a little DIRT BAG WEASEL.

Also ... this article confirms a critical and important element of the Dossier as it pertains to Page. And Steele had this info WELL before it happened ...

[DonaldsRump]

34. Totally agree. This is a must read.

I had no idea about Mr. Page until now.

[orangecrush]

36. We are living

in a spy novel now.

[Stardust1]

35. Disgusting

What disgusting people. They seem so proud to be lying, cheating scumbags.

[orangecrush]

37. I find it worrisome

that they seemed, until recently, to be totally unconcerned about consequences.
