I was listening to an interesting podcast this weekend about the world cup and bribery of how it was awarded to Russia over what people thought was a far better bid from everyone else (England, Spain / Portugal) But somehow Russia got it.
Neat connections to this trump investigation (not saying this one side or the other, just interesting there is a lot of same connections)
England hires former spy to look into how Russia got the World Cup that spy?
Christopher Steele, yes the same one of the dossier.
Steele finds some shady shit showing shady shit, he brings it to people in the UK who want nothing to do with it (Mostly because no real soccer country wanted to piss off Fifa)
Steele hears that the FBI is really looking to prosecute international wire fraud cases and that type of shit, it is one of the objectives of then Director Robert Mueller.
Steele contacts an agent in Brooklyn who knows nothing about soccer, but knows that case will be something Mueller wants to go for. So they take it and through investigation they flip Chuck Blazer and American who was taking bribes and voted for Moscow to win the world cup, Blazer lives in NYC, Guess what building???
Years later Steele gets hired to spy on the Russians again and finds some alarming evidence of Trump collusion, he gives that dossier to the same FBI agent, that's where we are.
Just interesting stuff, Steele was the one who brought down Fifa, so now my stance on his Trump Dossier has changed.
