WSJ Breaks Bogus Story Attempting to Tie Flynn to Man Seeking Clinton Emails

You’re gonna love this ‘smoking gun’ story the WSJ just shilled — attempting to create another avenue for Robert Mueller to investigate.

Shane Harris should be ashamed of himself for such refuse.

Get this.

An 81 year old man named Peter Smith attempted to recover Hillary Clinton’s 30,000+ emails by scouring chat rooms and talking to hackers. The WSJ claims he might’ve emailed the Flynn’s once or twice — spoke highly of Flynn Jr., but ultimately was unsuccessful in finding the emails that Hillary erased from her server.

Wait there’s more.

Nah, just kidding. That’s all there is to it.

Here’s Chuck Todd talking to this animal Harris about his bullshit story.

Via WSJ:

Before the 2016 presidential election, a longtime Republican opposition researcher mounted an independent campaign to obtain emails he believed were stolen from Hillary Clinton’s private server, likely by Russian hackers.

In conversations with members of his circle and with others he tried to recruit to help him, the GOP operative, Peter W. Smith, implied he was working with retired Lt. Gen. Mike Flynn, at the time a senior adviser to then-candidate Donald Trump.

“He said, ‘I’m talking to Michael Flynn about this—if you find anything, can you let me know?’” said Eric York, a computer-security expert from Atlanta who searched hacker forums on Mr. Smith’s behalf for people who might have access to the emails.

Emails written by Mr. Smith and one of his associates show that his small group considered Mr. Flynn and his consulting company, Flynn Intel Group, to be allies in their quest.

What role, if any, Mr. Flynn may have played in Mr. Smith’s project is unclear. In an interview with The Wall Street Journal, Mr. Smith said he knew Mr. Flynn, but he never stated that Mr. Flynn was involved.

Mr. Smith said he worked independently and wasn’t part of the Trump campaign.

Mr. Smith passed away recently. Thank God he isn’t alive to learn about this nonsensical story.
