I've started a new thread on Australia (& the Clinton Foundation) because the sudden story about a drunken conversation with Papadopoulos being the impetus for the Russia investigation is suspicious.

The source of Papadopoulos revelations, Alexander Downer, has a sketchy past:

"Having served as a house Liar for two decades, Mr Alexander Downer’s greatest moment was allegedly in May 2016. This is when he changed the discourse of world politics. Maybe he was “honored” with this important assignment. I ask: was he asked to play the role of intermediary — retroactively! — in the Trump-Putin “election collusion’ thing? And to add realism, the exposé was said to have occurred during a drunken booze-up."
