Arizona Democratic Sen. Ruben Gallego is launching an effort to challenge a new Trump Administration immigration policy that could require many green card applicants to leave the United States and complete the process abroad.

According to a report from The Hill, Gallego is not only seeking to overturn the policy itself but is also pursuing a procedural strategy that could make it easier for Congress to reverse the change.

The dispute revolves around a recent U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) policy affecting how certain immigrants obtain lawful permanent residency.

A new court filing from the special counsel chosen to review the origins of the Trump-Russia investigation contains another, shall we say, interesting revelation.

The FBI turned Igor Danchenko, the source behind the largely discredited Steele Dossier, into a paid informant for two-and-a-half years.

The Reactionary, on Substack, first reported on the latest John Durham shocker and what it means going forward:

But we’ll start with the most damning development: Danchenko was on the FBI payroll as a confidential human source (CHS) from March 2017 through October 2020.

The purposes of making Danchenko a CHS should be quite clear. The Crossfire Hurricane investigation was plagued with problems from the outset. The reasons for opening the investigation were bunk. Those problems continued as the investigation went on, with claims of Trump/Russia collusion proven unverified or outright false. (Thus the targeting of Flynn for a Logan Act violation.)

Danchenko being a CHS also served another purpose: it protected the Bureau and the Mueller Special Counsel from revealing their “sources and methods.” How do you hide misconduct? Bury the witness.

We brought up Mueller back at the introduction, and here’s why. Steele relayed information to the Mueller Special Counsel about the Millian/Danchenko meetings that they knew was false. Similarly, Danchenko revealed information that Steele’s reporting was false. What did Team Mueller do with that information? They hid it from the FISA Court and from the public. Danchenko continued as a CHS throughout Mueller’s service as Special Counsel. Danchenko couldn’t be touched because of his status as CHS, thus protecting Mueller and the FBI.

Speculation is rampant, but some commentators like Hot Air blogger Ed Morrissey thinks Durham may try to argue that the FBI co-oped Danchenko as a self-serving way to bolster its investigation and secure questionable surveillance and search warrants.

    This is no shock, the FBI is the most corrupt agency we have, they are Americas KGB.

    [“The FBI turned Igor Danchenko, the source behind the largely discredited Steele Dossier, into a paid informant for two-and-a-half years.”]

    Of course he was, how do you think the FBI knew the Steele Dossier was a fake from the start, when they first got it, yet still used it to obtain four FISA Warrants illegally, by claiming they had authenticated it, so that they could use it to obtain FISA Warrants to actually spy on candidate Donald Trump, and later as President Trump, to keep spying on him.

    US Attorney General Merrick Garland demands that we trust the FBI and the DOJ who runs the criminal organization called the FBI. Why pay Igor Danchenko as an informant for just two-and-a-half years, because that is when the FISA Warrants were stopped because the Steele Dossier by that time was proven false by many other sources, who investigated the claims in it, as the FBI should have done, and if they did, would be obtaining FISA Warrants illegally.

    The biggest crime organizations in the USA since President Trump started running for the “Office of the President” have been the DOJ and the FBI, and their known records of wrongdoing, lying under oath, actual known crimes by their members, and hiding evidence of criminal activity by members of the political party that they promote and protect from our laws that Democrats refuse to enforce and obey.

      That is why the FBI didn’t find any problems with the 2020 election, and why they don’t want President Trump to get elected again. They know what Durham has in mind and want to get ahead of it.

    My last month paycheck was 11k dollars… All I did was simple 0nline w0k from comfort at home for 5-7 hours per day that I got from this agency I discovered over the internet and they paid me 82 dollars every hour. Visit for more detail … https://cashliberty7.blogspot.com/

    I cannot understand why this is still being discussed. In earlier days Judge Roy Bean would have already hung these treasonous people or just fed them to the bear. Steele is all BS. What is so obvious that folks still question and wag their toungs about makes no sense.
