Crossfire Hurricane was opened because Alexander Downer, an Australian diplomat, told the FBI that at a dinner at a bar in London, George Papadopoulos had said that he had heard (likely on TV) that Russia may have gotten ahold of the DNC emails.
And that’s just their official reason. They have no explanation for why they had agents traveling around and setting up meetings for Papadopoulos months before that even happened.
They also cannot explain why they waited months after Downer’s communication to actually open the case, why Downer would become alarmed by an event that hadn’t taken place yet (Wikipedia publicity) to justify sending the communication, why any of them would be worried about anyone talking about items that were contemporaneously widely reported in the news media, or how any Papadopoulos comments might connect to activities by Carter Page (supposedly the actual Russian contact) when the two had never spoken.

This is not an exaggeration.
Yep. The "official" story is unbelievable and ridiculous. The truth is actually scary.
It's only ''scary'' if you see them as honest organizations. But if you see them for what they are: criminal organizations, then it all makes sense.
This is the behavior of a crime group.
Correct.
Not even emails just “dirt”.

Yeah this is not accurate about TV, it’s actually way worse.
Papadapalous heard it from a different FBI informant who purposefully gave him that information which was solely designed to implicate him.
This was the whole entrapment thing which the media twisted itself into a pretzel for in order to deny that it ever happened.
