One of the central figures to the Russian-collusion narrative is Maltese professor Joseph Mifsud. He is the man that helped allegedly jumpstart the counterintelligence investigation into then-candidate Donald Trump’s 2016 campaign when he allegedly told Trump campaign aide George Papadopoulos that Russians had “dirt” on Hillary Clinton, including her emails.
In Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s final report on the investigation, Mifsud is portrayed as being intimately connected to the Putin regime in Russia. Democrats on the House Intelligence Committee have similarly portrayed Mifsud as a “cutout” who gave Papadopoulos information on behalf of the Russians in order to influence the 2016 election.
