On February 15th, The Washington Free Beacon<\/a> reported that the Biden campaign paid nearly $20,000 to Neustar Information Services, the cybersecurity firm at the center of Special Counsel John Durham\u2019s investigation into the origins of the Trump-Russia probe, in 2020 for accounting and compliance work,<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

The campaign paid Neustar Information Services in 2020 for accounting and compliance work, according to Federal Election Commission records<\/a>. According to Durham, Neustar\u2019s chief technology officer, Rodney Joffe, accessed sensitive web traffic data that the company maintained on behalf of the White House executive office in order to collect “derogatory” information about Donald Trump. Joffe allegedly provided<\/a> the information to Hillary Clinton campaign lawyer Michael Sussmann, who in turn gave it to the CIA during a meeting in February 2017. Durham charged Sussmann in September with lying to the FBI about his investigation of Trump.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Biden campaign\u2019s payments raise questions about whether Joffe continued snooping on Trump in the most recent election. The Biden and Clinton campaigns are the only two presidential committees to have ever paid Neustar, according to Federal Election Commission records. Biden\u2019s campaign paid<\/a> Neustar $18,819 on Sept. 29, 2020, the records show. The Clinton campaign paid the firm $3,000 in May 2015 for mobile phone services. The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee paid $3,000 to Neustar in 2017. Neustar executives and staffers contributed<\/a> $17,906 to Biden\u2019s campaign, FEC records show.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The article concludes:<\/p>\n

Joffe began helping the Clinton campaign in mid-2016 after he found what he claimed was suspicious Internet chatter between the servers of Russia\u2019s Alfa Bank and Trump\u2019s real estate company, the Trump Organization. Sussmann shared Joffe\u2019s findings with journalists and then-FBI general counsel James Baker. Sussmann is accused of lying to Baker during a Sept. 19, 2016, meeting by denying that he was investigating Trump on behalf of the Clinton campaign.<\/strong><\/p>\n

According to Durham, Clinton campaign lawyers told campaign officials, including Jake Sullivan, about the Alfa Bank claims. Sullivan later joined the Biden campaign and currently serves as national security adviser. His wife is counselor<\/a> to Attorney General Merrick Garland, who oversees the Durham probe and has final say over a release of a report of the investigation.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Federal investigators have debunked Joffe\u2019s allegations of secret channels of communication between Trump and Russia. The Justice Department inspector general said the FBI determined by February 2017 that there was no basis to the Alfa-Trump allegation. Durham said in his court filing on Friday that his investigators found “no support” for the information Sussmann gave the CIA.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The swamp that is the deep state runs deep and wide.<\/p>\n
