This really stinks! Tarmac meeting, Strock-Page text messages, Comey-McCabe lying through their teeth, just to name a few and now this. Since this latest eye-popping subversion has now been exposed how much longer must we wait before something is done about it? Is the Republican-controlled Congress Helen Keller?

American-born University of Cambridge professor Stefan Halper has been identified as an FBI plant in Donald Trump's 2016 presidential campaign, multiple news outlets reported Saturday.
The 73-year-old academic reportedly has deep ties to American and British intelligence, having served in the Nixon, Ford and Reagan administrations, the New York Post reported.
President Trump tweeted Friday that confirmation of an FBI plant in his campaign would become the nation's "all-time biggest political scandal."
Reports are there was indeed at least one FBI representative implanted, for political purposes, into my campaign for president. It took place very early on, and long before the phony Russia Hoax became a “hot” Fake News story. If true - all time biggest political scandal!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) May 18, 2018
The New York Times and Washington Post reportedly have known of Halper’s identity for weeks, but chose not to reveal his name. Then on Thursday, the Daily Caller named Halper in the opening paragraph of its report.

The Washington Post said it received warnings from U.S. officials that revealing Halper’s identity posed a security risk.
Pose a security risk defined:
The 'U.S. officials' didn't want the voting public to find out the FBI tried to rig the election.

Meanwhile, reports vary on when the FBI tapped Halper to snoop on the Trump campaign.
The New York Times reported in December that during “a night of heavy drinking at an upscale London bar in May 2016,” Trump campaign adviser George Papadopoulos had disclosed to an Australian diplomat the Russians had dirt on the Clinton campaign. The Australians then tipped off the FBI, prompting the agency to launch “Crossfire Hurricane” on July 31, 2016.
But Harper met with Page in early July that summer, contradicting the FBI’s claims of when the operation began, while Halper met Carter Page at a British symposium and remained in contact for more than a year.
In August, Harper met with Trump campaign co-chair Sam Clovis to offer his experience, the Washington Post reported.
A few days later, Harper reportedly offered Papadopoulos compensation in exchange for writing a paper about energy in the eastern Mediterranean region.
Sources close to Papadopoulos now say Harper was working for an intelligence agency.
Papadopoulos has pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI, while Page was the subject of a federal surveillance warrant.
By May 2017, the “Cross Hurricane” operation had melded with Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation.
