a recent survey Washington postJust before the election, the FBI revealed new details about a previously unknown FBI investigation into whether Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi attempted to inject $1,000 into Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign. Ten thousand U.S. dollars.
The investigation, which has remained closed for more than three years, seeks to determine whether a $10 million donation Trump made to his campaign shortly before the election was actually funded by the Egyptian government.
This is the very establishment that ignored the Biden crime family.
The investigation began in 2017 under U.S. secret Intelligence suggests Sisi intends to financially support Trump campaign. In early 2019, federal investigators learned of a massive cash withdrawal that occurred at the National Bank of Egypt on January 15, 2017, five days before Trump took office.
The withdrawal involved an organization called “Research Center” and requested $9,998,000 in cash.. Bank employees assembled the money into $100 bills and placed them into two large bags, which were then taken away by four men.
The investigation, which began during Trump’s presidency, also involves special counsel Robert Mueller. Mueller’s team investigated various aspects, including a secret court battle to obtain Egyptian bank records that eventually reached the Supreme Court.
The Washington Post reports:

The legal battle led to the mysterious closure of part of the federal courthouse in Washington, D.C., in December of that year and later wound its way to the Supreme Court as both sides argued over whether the state-owned foreign bank could be forced to provide evidence. In a final plea to the High Court to hear the case, the bank warn If it had to turn over the records, it would “wreak havoc on U.S. foreign policy — potentially alienating U.S. allies, undermining diplomatic efforts and inviting reciprocity.”
The High Court dismissed the bank’s request, but the bank still failed to comply. By mid-January 2019, the bank began being slapped with contempt fines of $50,000 per day by Chief U.S. District Judge Beryl Howell for failing to turn over records.
to early February In 2019, the bank relented and delivered nearly 1,000 pages of bank documents, including Arabic and English versions.
The bank records contained one particularly tantalizing item: a brief handwritten letter dated January 15, 2017, in which a group called the Research Center requested that the bank withdraw from Cairo International Airport, which is located approximately seven miles away. According to bank records, employees placed the money in two large bags that day and stored it in the bank manager’s office until two people associated with the account and two others came to take the cash.
Mueller team gathers Prosecutors and agents briefed them on the newly obtained documents. To those in the room, the retraction appeared to strengthen classified intelligence and validate the decision to let Mueller’s team investigate, people familiar with the matter said.
Despite obtaining nearly 1,000 documents from the bank, investigators were unable to conclusively determine the source of the funds, leading to a stalemate in the case that was ultimately closed by U.S. Attorney Michael Sherwin.
A spokesman for the Trump campaign dismissed the accusations, calling them “fake news” and blaming “Trump haters and actors with bad intentions.”
“The investigation in question found no wrongdoing and has been closed,” spokesman Steven Cheung told The Washington Post. “None of the reported allegations or implications have any basis in fact.” The Washington Post has been deceived by Trump haters and malicious actors peddling hoaxes and hoaxes.
An Egyptian government spokesman declined to comment in detail but noted that the Justice Department concluded the investigation without charges.
“It is inappropriate to comment on or refer to rulings issued by other countries’ judicial systems or procedures and reports adopted by the Ministry of Justice,” wrote Ayman Varash, director of the Egyptian government’s Foreign Press Center.
