British intel caught FBI spy chief McGonigal secretly meeting a Russian in London

British intel caught FBI spy chief secretly meeting a Russian in London

* An FBI spy chief's secret meeting with a Russian contact was detected by UK officials.

* Charles McGonigal, the ex-FBI official, is charged with taking money from Russian tycoon Oleg Deripaska.

* McGonigal should have realized that the London meeting would be noticed, one source said.

In 2018, Charles McGonigal, the FBI's former New York spy chief, traveled to London where he met with a Russian contact who was under surveillance by British authorities, two US intelligence sources told Insider.

The British were alarmed enough by the meeting to alert the FBI's legal attaché, who was stationed at the US Embassy. The FBI then used the surreptitious meeting as part of their basis to open an investigation into McGonigal, one of the two sources said.

The two sources, both former officials in the US intelligence community, did not specify the identity of the Russian who McGonigal met with.

McGonigal, the former head of the FBI's counterintelligence division in New York, stands accused of taking money from Oleg Deripaska, a Russian oligarch, in violation of US sanctions, in exchange for investigating one of Deripaska's Russian rivals. McGonigal "traveled to meet Deripaska and others at Deripaska's residence in London, and in Vienna," according to one of the federal indictments lodged last month. The indictments do not say precisely when those alleged meetings took place, or how prosecutors came to believe they occurred.

McGonigal may also be the guy who “cleared” Trump of dealing with the Russians in 2016. If so, wow, was he wrong. Or maybe it was the money.

Trump claimed exoneration of voter fraud in Georgia today.

Yet, wasn’t the point of today’s Georgia Grand Jury report that they had found no evidence of the voter fraud that Trump claimed was the case?

TALLAHASSEE — Lev Parnas, a Ukrainian American businessman accused of funneling foreign money into U.S. elections, attended a string of events with Ron DeSantis in the closing moments of the Republican candidate’s 2018 campaign for governor in Florida.

In a photograph taken Nov. 4, two days before the election that propelled DeSantis to victory, Parnas is next to the smiling candidate at a campaign rally in South Daytona. Former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi is standing nearby in the shot, which was published by Getty Images.

Thank you for the heads-up!

Personally, I’d love to pilot my own zeppelin.

Would break my heart to know someone was aboard a Flying Stopsign.

The issue has baffled the Pentagon and CIA since Kenneth Arnold reported seeing a formation of nine shiny, metallic-looking objects moving “like a saucer if you skip it across the water” while flying over Washington State in 1947.

Three-quarters of a century on and we still don’t know what UFOs are.

Paul Krassner knew what you're talking about and founded LOOT.

Krassner wanted to correct the mis-truths in the “Paper of Record.” He was amazed at the evolution of story. Like you, Doctor, Krassner believed “Truth is truth.”

Thank you for sharing.

If you like, please provide details about what you experienced. There is new information to be gained and/or it may fit in with what others have reported.

I’ve followed the subject for that long — since I was 7. While witnesses have often been ridiculed, the unexplained phenomenon has been treated seriously by US government authorities, including CIA.

You may enjoy a PDF copy of a Dell Publication from 1967, “Flying Saucers — UFO Reports,” an important point after which popular media mainly denigrated witnesses and ridiculed the subject:

The 1958 photo from Brazil in Reply 7 above is discussed in detail, “Like the Flight of a Bat—.” If you have read some of the more recent accounts, you may notice how much of the detail — facts — has been replaced with disinformation — opinion.

UFOs shouldn’t be considered taboo. Thank Goodness for the late Sen. Harry Reid and a number of his contemporaries.

And her assistant. And the whole department, actually.

Papua New Guinea Sighting (1959)

William B. Gill, an Anglican priest with a mission in Bosinai, Papas New Guinea, observed craft-like UFOs — one with Humanoid figures on top — on two consecutive evenings, June 26-27, 1959. About twenty-five natives, including teachers and medical technicians, also observed the phenomena. They “signaled” the humanoids and received an apparent response. This was one of sixty UFO sightings within a few weeks in the New Guinea area.

Snip...

As indicated by his notes, Gill saw a bright white light in the north western sky. It appeared to be approaching the mission and hovering about 100 metres up. Eventually 38 people, including Gill, teachers Steven Gill Moi and Ananias Rarata, and Mrs Nessle Moi, gathered to watch the main UFO, which looked like a large, disc-shaped object. It was apparently solid and circular with a wide base and narrower upper deck. The object appeared to have four ‘legs’ underneath it. There also appeared to be about four ‘panels’ or ‘portholes’ on the side of the object, which seemed to glow a little brighter than the rest. At a number of intervals the object produced a shaft of blue light which shone upwards into the sky at an angle of about 45 degrees.

What looked like ‘men’ came out of the object, onto what seemed to be a deck on top of it. There were four men in all, occasionally two, then one, then three, then four. The shaft of blue light and the ‘men’ disappeared. The object then moved through some clouds. There were other UFO sightings during the night. Gill described the weather as variable sky scattered clouds to clear at first, becoming overcast after. He estimated the height of the clouds at about 600 meters. The first sighting over the sea, according to Rev. Gill, seemed to be about 150 metres above the water all times. The main UFO was clearly visible and seemed mostly stationary during the twenty-five minutes of observation.

Astonishingly, the aerial visitor put in a repeat performance the following night, 27 June. Gill prepared another statement.

‘Large UFO first sighted by Annie Laurie at 6 p.m. in apparently same position as last night (26/6/59) only seemed a little smaller, when W.B.G. saw it at 6.02 p.m. I called Ananias and several others and we stood in the open to watch it. Although the sun had set it was still quite light for the following fifteen minutes. We watched figures appear on top four of them, no doubt that they are human. Possibly the same object that I took to be the “Mother” ship last night. Two smaller UFOs were seen at the same time, stationary.

One above the hills west, another over- head. On the large one two of the figures seemed to be doing something near the centre of the deck, were occasionally bending over and raising their arms as though adjusting or “setting up” something (not visible). One figure seemed to be standing looking down at us (a group of about a dozen). I stretched my arm above my head and waved. To our surprise the figure did the same. Ananias waved both arms over his head then the two outside figures did the same. Ananias and self began waving our arms and all four now seemed to wave back. There seemed to be no doubt that our movements were answered. All mission boys made audible gasps (of either joy or surprise, perhaps both).
