The 2016 FBI investigation into ties between Donald Trump’s presidential campaign and Russia—later known as "Crossfire Hurricane"—was sparked by a tip from Alexander Downer, who was then Australia’s High Commissioner to the United Kingdom. Key Events The Meeting (May 2016): During a meeting at the Kensington Wine Rooms in London, Trump campaign foreign policy adviser George Papadopoulos told Downer that Russian officials possessed "dirt" on Hillary Clinton in the form of thousands of emails. The Tip-Off (July 2016): After leaked Democratic emails began appearing online in July 2016, Australian officials passed Downer's information to American intelligence. The Investigation (July 31, 2016): This information served as the official catalyst for the FBI to open its counterintelligence investigation into whether individuals associated with the Trump campaign were coordinating with the Russian government. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "massfire" group.
