The Hypothesis of Israeli Interference in the US Elections 2016 thenewsandtimes.blogspot.com/2024/01/the-hy
Mossad collected various US government emails for years prior to 2016 with the help of its many human assets. During 2016 campaign it released the Clintons emails via various “Leaks”, in the attempt to portray her as “unreliable” and to hurt her election chances. In the process it developed various covers, mostly Russia, with whom it had the agreement to cooperate. Jared Kushner the agent of Mossad, adapted their algorithms for the US elections. And finally, it orchestrated the October Surprise 2016: it set up Anthony Weiner and inserted Clinton’s emails into his laptop, in the attempt to portray Huma Abedin as treacherous. It coordinated closely with the “Trump-Land” FBI via James Kallstrom and Charles McGonigal, who was set up later for a fall guy, in addition to many others previously. The US Government should investigate this and the related hypotheses carefully, and the findings should be published after the proper investigations, filling out the blank spots. It will be good for both the US and Israel. These arrogant, stab in the back, Mossad shenanigans have to stop!

Forensic exam of the Weiner’s Laptop: It was requested by the FBI in 2016 but it remains unclear if it was performed, how it was performed, by whom, and what are the results of it. Were there any signs of the cyber intrusion and the unauthorized cyber insertion of about 650,000 Clinton emails leaked earlier? I asked this question about a year ago, but there still no answers. This issue is of the primary importance in the task of the understanding the October Surprise 2016, its origins, true circumstances, and true causes. It is very important but a very simple question, requiring “yes or no” answer, to which the American people are fully entitled. Please, answer it!

Blogs Review

Gusinsky, Lesin, and the FBI

Based on the content of the webpage, here is a summary:

The blog post, titled “The Gusinsky’s Revenge: The Investigation in tweets,” is Part 2 of an investigative series by Michael Novakhov. It appears to be presented as a collection of tweets.

The post centers on the theory that Vladimir Gusinsky, a prominent Russian media mogul and founder of the NTV television network, may be a prime suspect in ordering the murder of Mikhail Lesin, a former Russian press minister. It questions the FBI’s actions on the matter and notes that Gusinsky is “hiding in Israel and refuses to talk to the FBI.” The post also provides brief backgrounds on both Gusinsky and Lesin and their roles in the post-Soviet media landscape.

The association between

Vladimir GusinskyMikhail Lesin, and the FBI primarily involves investigations into potential financial crimes and Lesin’s mysterious 2015 death in Washington, D.C.. 

Vladimir Gusinsky and the FBI
  • FBI Scrutiny: Russian media oligarch Vladimir Gusinsky has drawn FBI scrutiny in recent years, though he has never been charged with a crime. Agents questioned his now-estranged wife and household staff regarding his business dealings and associations.
  • Charles McGonigal Connection: Gusinsky had long-standing personal and professional connections to Charles McGonigal, the former top counterintelligence agent in the FBI’s New York office. McGonigal, who investigated Russian oligarchs during his tenure, socialized and dined at Gusinsky’s home on multiple occasions.
  • Indictment: In an unrelated case, McGonigal was later sentenced to prison for conspiring to violate U.S. sanctions and money laundering in connection with his work for another sanctioned Russian oligarch, Oleg Deripaska. Gusinsky was not implicated in this criminal case. 
Mikhail Lesin and the FBI
  • Media Czar: Mikhail Lesin was a former Russian press minister and the “mastermind” behind the Kremlin-funded international news network RT, widely considered a propaganda tool by U.S. officials. As press minister, he played a central role in consolidating state control over independent media outlets, including forcing Gusinsky to cede control of the NTV channel.
  • U.S. Investigations: In 2014, a U.S. Senator urged the FBI and the Justice Department to investigate whether Lesin was laundering ill-gotten gains through the purchase of over $28 million in Los Angeles real estate.
  • Mysterious Death: Lesin died in a Washington D.C. hotel room in November 2015. The D.C. Chief Medical Examiner officially determined his death an accident caused by blunt force injuries from falls, with acute ethanol intoxication as a contributing factor.
  • Conspiracy Theories: The official conclusion was met with skepticism, and alternative theories suggested murder. The FBI investigated the death as part of a metropolitan police homicide investigation and released files, which did not contradict the accidental death narrative but were heavily redacted. A private intelligence report (the “Steele dossier”) and other independent sources suggested Lesin was bludgeoned to death by enforcers working for a close Putin associate, potentially just before a scheduled meeting with U.S. Justice Department officials to discuss the inner workings of RT. Some theories even suggested Lesin was intending to cooperate with the FBI and enter witness protection. 
Summary of Connection
Both Gusinsky and Lesin are high-profile Russian media figures who became subjects of interest for U.S. authorities, including the FBI. Their stories intersect through the FBI’s investigation into McGonigal and their shared history of involvement in the power struggles over Russian media control during the rise of Vladimir Putin.

The Deus ex machina

Gusinsky and Lesin – GS

Vladimir Gusinsky and Mikhail Lesin were two influential Russian media figures involved in the post-Soviet media landscape. Gusinsky, a prominent media mogul and founder of the NTV television network, had a contentious relationship with the Kremlin and ultimately fled Russia. Lesin, a former press minister and media advisor to the Kremlin, was instrumental in shaping the state-controlled media and played a key role in developing the industry.

The Gusinsky’s Revenge, Part 1. The FBI – #FBI likes their GOOSE well cooked. Here is the recipe for you! Is Vladimir Gusinsky a prime suspect in ordering the murder of Mikhail Lesin, and what is the FBI doing about it? Just like water off the Goose: Как с Гуся вода! The Russian Lessons, or why Vladimir Gusinsky is hiding in Israel and refuses to talk to the FBI. However, the AI Mode denies this with its usual, clever but insufficiently intelligent “no evidence” clause.
