Early last week, information surfaced on multiple independent news sites about a lawsuit that was filed in Texas by one Ed Butowski. In it he asserted that Wikileaks’ Julian Assange confirmed to Fox News analyst Ellen Ratner that the DNC emails supposedly hacked by Russians were actually received from Seth Rich and his brother Aaron.

If true, the implications of this are enormous. Because of this, patience has been the watchword among those who would like to get to the bottom of the false narrative surrounding the Russians and the 2016 election.
Now a video has surfaced confirming that Ellen Ratner did say that she did indeed meet with Julian Assange as Ed Butowski alleges. The video was taken during a November 9th, 2016, Embry Riddle University symposium. Ellen Ratner and former Congressman John Leboutillier discussed the aftermath of the 2016 presidential election.
The time-frame of Ratner’s travel and meeting with Assange lines up with the allegations by Butowsky in his lawsuit. The video confirms that Assange did tell her that the leaked DNC emails came from inside the DNC. It was not a Russian hack. The internal leak was something that had been forensically alluded to before.

The entire court filing can be seen here.
Many people believe the DNC email data was downloaded onto a flash drive and leaked. Although it was pooh-poohed by the media, computer scientists demonstrated that a physical connection to the DNC server was needed to have created the file that Wikileaks had. In other words no Russian sitting somewhere in Europe as the Democrats claimed could have done the hack.
The FBI did not review the DNC server. The FBI/DOJ never even saw anything but a summary of the Crowdstrike report. They just took the word of a company hired by the DNC without ever seeing the actual forensics. The FBI’s own techs did not verify the information provided.
The implications here are enormous. If Ed Butowski’s allegations are true, the entire narrative around the DNC “hack” will be proven to have been intentionally created. In addition, the murder of Seth Rich (unsolved to this day) has an alarmingly new motive.
Remember, the FBI, the DOJ and the Mueller investigation have claimed that specific Russian actors were responsible for hacking the DNC in 2016. If Butowski’s allegations are true, that narrative will collapse. The entire integrity of the DOJ, FBI and Special Counsel investigations disintegrates. The investigation will be shown to be solely about trying to trap PDJT into an obstruction of justice charge.
Is this why Robert Mueller “delayed” his appearance before Congress? Did he need to meet with the Democrats to map out his strategy for answering questions about this before he will testify? Will he actually appear now? What will the Democrats’ strategy be?
