Jan 21... Trump inaugurated... two weeks after he learned of the Putin email directives to various senior officials of the FSB and GRU to get Trump elected. But the identity of the asset providing the documentation is a well kept secret.

Three or four DAYS after inauguration Russian agents entered an FSB meeting and threw a hood over the head of the FSB's leader of their cyber intelligence services and "disappeared" him.

Charged him with Treason.

My guess is that he is dead now... unless they think he will spill more names of other CIA assets in Russia.

Now... how do you suppose Putin learned of the identity of the asset inside the FSB?
