agencies have listened to it -- and so has the FBI. This recording is also in the hands of Putin and is Kompromat -- material they could blackmail him with.
A single source has also named a Russian mole, a person who resigned from the DT administration in March -- Boris Epshteyn.
So, yes, yes, nothing is proved till it is proved and lots of people here are Mensch skeptics. But she has been right on some key things during this election . . .

Carter Page Went to Moscow With a Tape of Donald Trump Offering Treason For Hacking
APRIL 16, 2017 ~ PATRIBOTICS
Sources with links to the intelligence community say it is believed that Carter Page went to Moscow in early July carrying with him a pre-recorded tape of Donald Trump offering to change American policy if he were to be elected, to make it more favorable to Putin. In exchange, Page was authorized directly by Trump to request the help of the Russian government in hacking the election.
On November 7th I reported that the FBI had been granted a FISA warrant to investigate the activities of two Russian banks, Alfa Bank and Silicoln Valley Bank. I also reported that an earlier attempt to obtain a FISA warrant, in June, had failed in the court because it named Donald Trump himself and three of his associates. In an exclusive at Patribotics, I reported that these named associates were Carter Page, Paul Manafort, and Boris Epshteyn.
Sources close to the intelligence community now report that this application was made because a recording exists of all three men discussing the possibility of Page taking the tape of Trump to Moscow as an earnest of good faith. There is a minor dispute over whether Trump himself is also on that tape, as well as the tape that was delivered to Moscow by Carter Page of Trump making this promise.
A separate source with links to the intelligence community reported to me several months ago that Boris Epshteyn, alone of the four men named in the first FISA application, is an actual FSB agent, and, the source said, is the son of two other sleeper agents. Paul Manafort is registering as an agent of a foreign power; Carter Page has admitted, from public reporting, to have met with Russian intelligence agents.

Mr. Ected
(9,670 posts)Which would have meant that this tape was something that the FBI was aware of at the time.
If all of this falls into place as it's being surmised, the evidence against Trump must be enormous. I know he must be hearing footsteps.
I keep thinking of something John Schindler said in February: Trump will spend the rest of his life behind bars.
Please. Be. True.

(4,016 posts)If true, and it actually get's out into the mainstream media, then that will be a reset in the entire Trump / Russia #TrumpRussia discussion.
Which of course means we attack North Korea a few days later.
