There is no peace for Edi Rama over the affair with McGonigal...
The "McGonigal" file seems to continue to haunt Edi Rama. The former FBI agent is currently in prison on several charges, while there are still many mysteries and secrets about what really happened to him. But everything can be revealed.
According to Fox News, President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Tuesday, directing the FBI to immediately open files related to the "Crossfire Hurricane" investigation, the investigation that began in 2016 to examine whether members of the Trump campaign colluded with Russia during the presidential race.
After signing the order, Trump said the media could now review files that had previously been kept secret, although he expressed skepticism about whether journalists would bother to do so.
" You probably won't be worried because you won't like what you see. But this was a complete politicization. It's a disgrace. It should never have happened in this country. But now you'll be able to see it for yourself. Everything is open ," Trump said.
The FBI opened a counterintelligence investigation on July 31, 2016, to determine whether Trump, then a presidential candidate, or members of his campaign were colluding or coordinating with Russia to influence the 2016 election. Within the bureau, this investigation was known as "Crossfire Hurricane."
McGonigal, while serving as chief of the cybercrimes section at FBI headquarters in Washington, D.C., was among the first FBI officials briefed on allegations that George Papadopoulos, an adviser to Trump's 2016 campaign, boasted that he knew Russians had political dirt on Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton.
This information led the FBI to open "Crossfire Hurricane," which would determine whether Trump officials had coordinated "knowingly or unknowingly" with Russia's efforts to interfere in the 2016 presidential election.
In September 2020, FBI Deputy Assistant Director Jonathan Moffa said, during Senate Judiciary Committee questioning, that he received an email in July 2016 from McGonigal regarding Papadopoulos that "contained essentially that reporting, which then served as the basis for opening the case."
Then it turned out that McGonigal was corrupted by the Russians and this led to his imprisonment. Now we have to wait and see if the Albanian dossier will be released, as new details may emerge about his connections with the Albanian Prime Minister. / Pamphlet
