UMongameli wase-US uDonald Trump.Ifoto nguChris Kleponis - Iphuli / imifanekiso kaFetty Akukho bali lishushu ngaphesheya kweMelika kule mpelaveki yeSuku lweSikhumbuzo kunaleyo yenziwe yiFederal Bureau yoPhando-kwaye ayenzanga-ngo-2016 malunga nokunxibelelana kweRussia noDonald J. Trump. Njengokuba ihlobo lonwabela ukuqalwa kwalo ngokungekho semthethweni, iintloko kunye nemithombo yeendaba zentlalo ziphuphuma zizityholo, ngamanqanaba ahlukeneyo okunyaniseka, ngokubhekisele kwimisebenzi yobukrelekrele ye-FBI ejikeleze uMongameli uTrump kwiminyaka emibini eyadlulayo, ngelixa wayekhankasela ukuthatha iNdlu yeWhite House.
Ukuhamba kwexesha, umongameli uthathe i-Twitter nangakumbi ngendlela eqhelekileyo, ephosa inveti kwi-FBI ngezityholo zayo ezingekho mthethweni kuye nakwibutho lakhe. Ngempelaveki, ixesha lokulawula liye lafaka iibhetshi zoburhalarhume-tweets malunga nesityholo seSpygate, sigqibe uphawu lwentengiso kaTrump oonobumba abakhulu kunye neengcaphuno. NgeeNtlola, okanye 'ii-Informants' njengoko iiDemokhrasi zithanda ukuzibiza ngokuba kuvakala ngathi akukho sono (kodwa ayisiyiyo), kulo lonke iphulo lam, ukusukela kwangoko, kutheni amanqanaba aphezulu e-FBI egwenxa okanye ' Ubulungisa 'buqhagamshelane nam undixelele ngengxaki yaseRussia? i wabuza umongameli ngoMgqibelo, ukongeza oko Yonke iRussia Probe iRigged. UTrump wafaka ezinye ii-tweets ezintathu ezinomsindo ngeCawa, kubandakanya umbuzo ongaqhelekanga , Ngubani oza kubuyisa ubomi obuncinci nobuhle (kunye nabanye) abonakaliswe kwaye bachithwa yi-phony Russia Collusion Witch Hunt?
Nangona ngoku kuyacaca ukuba phakathi ku-2016 i-FBI isebenzise umntu omnye okanye abangaphezulu ukurhwebeshela iphulo likaTrump, ebuza ngobulumko ngonxibelelwano ne-Kremlin-eyona nto ixhalabisayo kwi-Bureau xa abantu benamaxwebhu abhaliweyo kunye nengxaki e-Russia kunye nee-arhente zayo zobuntlola. njenge Iphepha leCarter kwaye UMichael Flynn yavela kumjikelezo kaTrump-kwakungekho nto iphosakeleyo okanye iphazamisayo malunga noku. Le yinkqubo esemgangathweni yokusebenza kwe-FBI kumatyala obukrelekrele. Nangona uTrump kunye nabakhuseli bakhe bebehlala besithi ukuqesha abantu abaxeliweyo kwakungekho semthethweni kwaye kwakungafanelekanga ngehlazo, inye kuphela into ebubuxoki bukaTrumpian.
Obo buxoki buye babethwa ngumoya kule mpelaveki nguMmeli weDemokhrasi u-Adam Schiff, okhokele abambalwa kwiKomiti yezoBuntlola yeNdlu kwiinzame zabo zophando ezilahlekileyo kunyaka ophelileyo ukuze bafike emazantsi amaqhina kaTrump eKremlin. Ezi ziye zacwangciswa ngendlela ecwangcisiweyo yileyo ikomiti yokuthintela kunye nenxalenye enkulu yamaRiphabhlikhi. Akukho bungqina buxhasa le ntetho ye-spy, uSchiff utshilo, wongeza Le nto nje… sisiqwenga semfundiso-ze umongameli afuna ukusibeka nokuphinda.
USenator uMarco Rubio, waseRiphabhlikhi, naye wayethetha ngokulinganayo kwiingxelo zakhe zempelaveki kwiSpygate, Ukuchaza kudliwanondlebe olwenziwe ngeasidi ukuba akabubonanga ubungqina bokuba i-FBI ihlole iphulo likaTrump. Ukusukela ukuba uRubio uhleli kwiKomiti ye-Senate ye-Intelligence, engakhathazwa kakhulu kukuzinikezela kunogxa wakhe weNdlu, izimvo zakhe zifanelwe kukudlalwa. Into endiyibonileyo bubungqina bokuba baphanda abantu abanembali yokunxibelelana neRussia eyayichaphazela, u-Rubio wachaza, eqhubeka, Kuyabonakala ukuba bekungekho phando, kodwa ngabantu abathile abanembali ekufuneka siyenzile. ube nokukrokrela, ukuba kwangaphambili komkhankaso kamongameli we-2015, 2016. Kwaye xa abantu abanjalo behamba kwiphulo elikhulu lezopolitiko eMelika, i-FBI, ejongene nophando lobukrelekrele, kufuneka ijonge abantu abanjalo.
Intshutshiso enobundlongondlongo kaTrump ngokuchasene nokusasazwa esidlangalaleni kobudlelwane bakhe obuyimfihlo baseKremlin ithathe iifom ezininzi ezilungisiweyo ukusukela ekumisweni kwakhe. Kwasekuqaleni konyaka we-2017, umongameli wathi wabanjwa ngocingo. Xa obo buxoki (obathi, ngokungathandabuzekiyo okanye hayi, babuyimvelaphi yaseRussia) bawa ngaphandle, wazama isityholo sokuba amalungu omkhankaso wakhe Ukutyhilwa ngokungafanelekanga kumaxwebhu ezobuntlola aphezulu. Obu buxoki buye babuna phantsi kokunganyaniseki kwabo, ke ngoku i-White House inyanzelisa ukuba ihlolelwe ngokungekho mthethweni yi-FBI. Le ntsomi iyingozi isifa kancinci nangaphandle kwemigxobhozo yeTrump-enders ekrakra- njengoko kufanelekile.
Nangona kunjalo, umbuzo usaqhubeka malunga nokuba yintoni eyakhuthaza i-FBI ukuba iphande unxibelelwano phakathi kwephulo likaTrump kunye neMoscow-ye-Bureau, into ebuthathaka kakhulu inikwe ukusondela kwezopolitiko. Kwaphela iinyanga, i-White House, kubandakanya noMongameli uTrump ngokwakhe, wanyanzelisa ukuba Iphepha labucala elilandelwa nguChristopher Steele , owayesakuba ligosa lezobuntlola laseBritani, yayingoyena mthombo wophando. Yiyo i ayisiyonyani kwaphela . Ukusola kukaTrump kuye kwawa kwincoko yotywala ngoJuni 2016 phakathi kukaGeorge Papadopoulos, umcebisi wephulo, kunye nommeli wase-Australia eLondon. I-FBI ngenene yafumana umoya wale ncoko ye-boozy kwaye yayikhathazwa libango likaPapadopoulos lokuba iMoscow yayinokungcola kuHillary Clinton kwii-imeyile zakhe ezigqatshuliweyo- kodwa eso simangalo sothusayo yayingezizo iindaba kwiBhunga.
Ukuchonga xa i-Spygate iqale kuye kwaba ngumdlalo weparlour phakathi kwe-fanbase eyothusayo kaTrump, ndingasathethi ke ngesiphazamiso esamkelekileyo kwinyani, esithi kukho ukuzingelwa kwabathakathi kwezopolitiko (ukusebenzisa ukhetho lukamongameli igama) ekhokelwa yi-Obama White House, isebenzisa i-FBI njengommeli wayo, ukuhlasela iphulo likaTrump. Owona myalezo upholileyo uvela ku Andrew McCarthy, ngubani icaciswe kakuhle ukuba iSebe lezoBulungisa kufuneka lityhile ubungqina obufumene uphando lwe-FBI lokuphikisa umgqatswa uTrump. Kuba uMcCarthy wayengumtshutshisi wangaphambili we-DoJ owayesebenza amatyala okhuseleko kuzwelonke, uyazi ukuba umqeshi wakhe wangaphambili akazukuveza ulwazi oluhle kangaka. Apha sinenye enye yeqokobhe lomdlalo weTrump-inkohliso.
Ngenxa yemvelaphi yakhe, uMcCarthy uyazi ngokuqinisekileyo ukuba ipesenti ephezulu yemibuzo yobukrelekrele iqala ngemiqondiso yobukrelekrele (SIGINT), ngamanye amagama ukubanjwa ngombane (okanye okuninzi) okubangela umdla we-FBI. Ukufuna ukwazi ngakumbi, iiarhente ze-Bureau ziqala ukumba-zisenza uphando, zisebenzisa iingxelo zobukrelekrele, zicela iijaji ukuba zifumane i-wiretaps, zithumele abanolwazi ukufumana ulwazi-ngamanye amagama, zonke izinto ezazenziwe yi-FBI kwi-2016, njengoko izama ukuqonda ukuba kutheni Uninzi lwabahlobo bakaTrump babenobuncwane kwaye bencokola namagosa aseKremlin. Kuyaphawula ukuba owona msebenzi uphumeleleyo wobukrelekrele kwimbali yaseMelika usebenze ngolu hlobo, kunye neebhombu zeSIGINT iingxelo ezikhokelela kwintsebenziswano esondeleyo phakathi kweArhente yoKhuseleko kaZwelonke kunye ne-FBI ukucotha, ngononophelo ukukhupha iintlola zaseKremlin eUnited States.
Ndiyazi into malunga nendlela edlala ngayo, kuba ndasebenza kwi-NSA zombini njengomhlalutyi woluntu kunye negosa lezomkhosi, kwaye ndandingumlawuli wezobuchwephesha kwicandelo elikhulu lokusebenza le-NSA. Ndisebenze kakhulu kwi-counterintelligence, kubandakanya ukusebenzisana ne-FBI kwiimeko ezinje ngokuqhubekayo, ngokufihlakeleyo, kwi-2016 ejikeleze umgqatswa uTrump. Ke ngoko, ndithetha ngokudibana kwe-SIGINT kunye ne-counterintelligence ukusuka kwindawo yokujonga into anokuyibiza umhlobo wam uTom Nichols. ingcali .
Makhe ndibeke amakhadi am phezu kwetafile: Uphando lobukrelekrele lukaDonald Trump lwatyatyathwa hayi ngambini, hayi ezimbini, kodwa iingxelo ezininzi ze-SIGINT eziseta iintsimbi ze-alamu ngaphakathi kuLuntu lwethu loBuntlola. Oku kwaziwa esidlangalaleni, ngokubanzi, kangangexesha elithile. Ngaphezulwana konyaka, i Umgcini ixelwe , ngokusekwe kwimithombo yobukrelekrele emininzi, ekhokelayo yathathwa liKomkhulu lezoNxibelelwano zikaRhulumente (i-GCHQ-i-NSA yase-Bhritane), eyaqala ukwazi ngasekupheleni kuka-2015 'kokudibana' okukrokrisayo phakathi kwamanani axhunywe kuTrump kunye neearhente ezaziwayo okanye ezirhanelwa zaseRussia. kubukrelekrele base UK bathi. Obu bukrelekrele budluliselwa e-US njengenxalenye yotshintshiselwano lolwazi oluqhelekileyo.
I-NSA ayisiyo-arhente yezobuntlola enamandla kakhulu kwihlabathi, sisiseko sayo yonke inkqubo yobuntlola yaseNtshona. Ekupheleni konyaka we-2015, ngokusekwe kwiingxelo ze-GCHQ, igama laphuma laya kubahlobo abasenyongweni be-NSA kunye namaqabane ukuba bajonge nakuphi na ukuthintela okuchukumisayo kwimizamo yaseRussia yokungena kwiphulo likaTrump. Bafumene intabalala. Njenge Umgcini Ucacisile, kwisiqingatha sokuqala sika-2016, njengoko ibhidi lika-Trump lika-Mongameli lafumana umphunga ongalindelekanga, i-Australia, iJamani, i-Estonia, ne-Poland bonke babenee-SIGINT hits ezibonisa ubudlelwane obuphazamisayo phakathi kuka-Trump noMoscow. Ngokukwanjalo ke, amaFrentshi namaDatshi enza njalo iqabane elinobuhlakani be-SIGINT yeeNSA.
Njenge Umgcini Ngobuchule ukuwubeka lo mbandela, i-GCHQ ibingakhange iqhubeke nomsebenzi ojolise kuTrump okanye kwiqela lakhe okanye ifune ulwazi ngokuthe ngqo. Incoko etyholwayo yathathwa ngamathuba njengenxalenye yokujonga rhoqo iiasethi zobukrelekrele zaseRussia. Ngaphezulu kweenyanga ezininzi, iiarhente ezahlukileyo ezijolise kubantu abafanayo zaqala ukubona ipateni yonxibelelwano eyayiphawulwe ngamagosa ezobuntlola e-US Ngamanye amagama, iiarhente zobuntlola zaseNtshona ezazimamele i-Kremlin kunye neentlola zayo-hayi iTrump okanye nayiphi na inamba yakhe -Eva iingxoxo ezininzi malunga neTrump kunye nokunxibelelana kwakhe okufihlakeleyo kwaseRussia. NjengokoNdikuxelele ngaphambili, Amagosa aphezulu aseKremlin athethe kakhulu ngeTrump eqala ngasekupheleni kuka-2014, kwizithende zohambo lwakhe oludumileyo lwaseMoscow, kwaye i-NSA yayazi ngale nto.
Ngokwenyani, i-NSA yaqonda kancinci malunga nokunxibelelana kukaTrump neMoscow, kwaye phakathi ku-2016 yayinyuse iinzame zayo zokufikelela emazantsi emfihlakalo ngokubhekisele kulwalamano lomgqatswa waseRussia. Ukuphendula izicelo ze-FBI ezingxamisekileyo zolwazi oluthe kratya, i-NSA yenyuka yaya kulo msitho, kwaye ngelixesha uDonald Trump amkele ngokusemthethweni ukutyunjwa kweRiphabhlikhi phakathi kuJulayi 2016, besisazi ukuba sinearhente yaseRussia ezandleni zethu, njengegosa eliphezulu le-NSA yibeke kum kutshanje.
Igosa laqhubeka: Besineengxelo ezininzi ngasekupheleni kuka-2015 nasekuqaleni kuka-2016, ubukhulu becala besuka kwiSibini nakwiQela lesiThathu-ukuba ziimpimpi-thetha kubahlobo bangaphandle be-NSA -kodwa ngentwasahlobo ka-2016 besinenqwaba yengqokelela yethu. Ezi ngxelo, ngokusekwe kwimikhombandlela emininzi, bezixinene, oko kukuthi, kuthintelwe kwiqela elincinci lamagosa asebukhosini, benikwa ubuntununtunu obucacileyo, kodwa bazobe umfanekiso ongenakucimeka womntu otyunjiweyo weGOP. I-Kremlin yathetha ngoTrump ngokungathi wayeyinkwenkwe yabo, kwaye izimvo zabo bezingasoloko zikhohlisa. Igosa le-NSA lathi ezi ngxelo zingaphezulu kwemfihlo zashiya ngaphandle kwamathandabuzo ukuba amaRussia ayebhukuqa idemokhrasi yethu kwi-2016-kwaye iQela uTrump wayelilungu elithathe inxaxheba kwiyelenqe lolwaphulo-mthetho eKremlin: UTrump nabantwana bakhe bayayazi into abayenzayo, kwaye benza nobani, lacacisa igosa.
Olu lwazi lunceda ukucacisa ukuba kutheni uJames Clapper, oyintloko-lizwe lethu elinamava, esandula ukukhulisa ingxelo yakhe yangaphambili yokuba umongameli wethu wayeyimpahla kaVladimir Putin ngokuchaza ukuba akathandabuzi ukuba iintlola zaseRussia zalususa unyulo kwi-Trump. Kule mpelaveki, uClapper kuchaziwe ukuba wayengazi ngokusetyenziswa kwe-FBI yabazisi ukufumana ulwazi malunga nephulo likaTrump ngo-2016. Ukuxela, uClapper akazange athethe nto malunga nemfihlo-kunye nobukrelekrele obunokuthi bukhuthaze i-Bureau ukuba iruse abanye oonobhala kule meko-kwaye, Njengayo nayiphi na igqala lomkhosi elinesiqingatha senkulungwane kwishishini lezobuntlola, uClapper akunakwenzeka ukuba athethe malunga ne-SIGINT ekumgangatho ophezulu nangaliphi na ixesha kungekudala, ngakumbi xa inyanzelisa umongameli kwi-espionage nangakumbi.
