What Stefan Halper lacked in pedigree, he compensated for with his arsenal of connections that allowed him to whisper into the right ears just what the listener wanted to hear.
Nearly six years have passed since Hillary Clinton and her cronies launched their plot to frame Donald Trump as a co-conspirator of Russia to distract Americans from Clintonâs scandals. Since then, by bits and pieces, the public has learned of Clintonâs role in peddling the Russia collusion hoax to both the press and intelligence agencies.
While there is still much to uncover, a recent exposĂ© of the man the FBI tapped as the key Confidential Human Source (CHS) in investigating the Trump campaign confirmed Spygateâs method of operation: creating mythical men on whose deceitful shoulders the media and the FBI then stood.

In a recent article, Real Clear Investigationsâ Mark Hemingway traced Halperâs history through archived documents and interviews with associates. He uncovered two themes girding Halperâs parallel careers of government informant and Cambridge academic.
