Posted on: December 27, 2019 at 10:17:53 CT

The CIA director herself may get drawn in to the Barr/Durham probe as they investigate rumors about Joseph Mifsud. As London station chief in 2016, Haspel WAS briefed on the Russia-linked professor’s contact with Papadopoulos, per sources. But she said it sounded “like an FBI matter,” according to the IG report, which redacts Haspel’s name. That would seem to pour cold water on the unsubstantiated theories that Mifsud was a CIA asset, as some Trump allies have alleged.
