While #MichaelSussmann was acquitted of lying to the #FBI, a number of new details came to light during the #SussmannTrial.

Some have not been reported, or have not been widely reported. (Thread👇) theepochtimes.com/10-underreport…
1. FBI Lawyer Sussmann Met With Was Close to Getting Job at Perkins Coie

#MichaelSussmann passed along claims about Clinton rival Donald Trump to #FBI lawyer James Baker on Sept. 19, 2016, as well as data that supposedly supported the claims.

Baker gave the information to…
…others in the bureau, triggering an investigation. The @FBI and @CIA both determined the claims were unsupported.

Baker, testifying during the #SussmannTrial, described Sussmann as a friend whom he met when both worked for the #DOJ, the #FBI’s parent agency.

"Sometimes we need time to pass and distance to extend to gain fuller perspective on what we did not see contemporaneously from too close.
Indeed, G-d tells Moses that no person can see His face (which I teach as meaning an up-close encounter) and live, but people can see the back of G-d’s head (which I teach as meaning a more distant previous encounter, growing ever more distant). See Exodus 33:18-23.

INFOGRAPHIC🔎Timeline of @FBI’s #FISAAbuse in Trump Campaign Investigation

#EpochTimes provides a comprehensive timeline of details from the #IGReport, describing how the #FBI rushed to #Spy on the Trump campaign and the flaws in its case.

See more: theepochtimes.com/infographic-ti…
In its pursuit of establishing #Surveillance on the Trump campaign, the #FBI turned its attention to @CarterWPage in the spring of 2016, culminating in the issuance of a #FISA warrant—which allows for some of the most intrusive #Spying methods on an US citizen.
As part of this process, the #FBI relied extensively on the flawed #SteeleDossier, leading an @FBI legal counsel to note that this was “essentially a single source FISA.”

1/ @AmbassadorRice "ascertained", from the Jan 05 2017 WH meeting that included @SallyQYates & @Comey, that @BarackObama was using @HillaryClinton's @DNC fake Russian Dossier & @Crowdstrike server coverup against @realDonaldTrump campaign, transition, & presidency.
2/ Senate Judiciary delayed @jeffsessions confirmation to give Team Yates & Comey time to attack @GenFlynn bc Flynn knew the faces & the names of the majority of #DeepState swamp creatures who were part of the transition and would have surely had them removed immediately.
3/ Yates was fired on Jan 30 2017 for refusing Trump's #TravelBan order. Immediately, @lawfareblog & @BrookingsInst legal #Resist players like @DanielJJonesUS @MarkSZaid @DebraKatzKMB @benjaminwittes @gtconway3d @BillKristol @robreiner @DebraMessing among others kicked into gear.

A new order by the #FISA Court sets forth and reviews specific changes in the wake of gov't #Wiretapping abuses. (Thread👇) theepochtimes.com/foreign-intell…
The most noteworthy item bars the @FBI and @TheJusticeDept officials who were involved in the controversial #Wiretaps from “drafting, verifying, reviewing, or submitting” new #FISA applications while their actions are under review.
The @JusticeOIG flagged #FISAabuse in the wiretapping of @CarterWPage. The #FISA Court and #DOJ have determined that at least 2 of the 4 wiretaps against Page were improper and are invalid.

In the saga of “#Spygate,” 2019 has shaped up to be the year the tables turned.

In the first days of January 2019, a federal judge extended the term of the #GrandJury in the #SpecialCounsel investigation by #RobertMueller.
Later that month, the @FBI raided the home of veteran Republican strategist #RogerStone in front of @CNN cameras.

The raid and indictment of Stone were symbolic of the spectacle that was the #RussiaInvestigation.

This month Obamas officially purchased the Edgartown Estate, an $11.75 million waterfront mansion in Martha’s Vineyard.

In 2017 the Obamas purchased an $8.1 million home in DC’s Kalorama neighborhood & own a 6,243 sf home in Chicago’s South Side Kenwood neighborhood.
The listing details the property’s “long and winding driveway, sprawling lawn and incredible water views” and notes that the main residence is “finished with the finest details,” including...

The @FBI’s #FISA warrant to #Spy on Trump campaign adviser @CarterWPage—a key part of the agency’s investigation of the Trump campaign—has been fraught with irregularities.

By Jeff Carlson @themarketswork (Thread 👇) theepochtimes.com/an-examination…
Ahead of the release of the #DOJ Inspector General's #FISAReport, we provide an overview of what exactly the known irregularities are.

The initiation of the investigation by @JusticeOIG was originally announced on March 28, 2018.
However, the #IGReport has been repeatedly pushed back and delayed.

IG #Horowitz declared his area of original focus within his initiation announcement:

Re-reading the Christopher Steele dossier & if you exclude the discussions of sexual perversion ... the rest of it is mostly dead on, completely believable, and/or plausible given all we know. This part about #Ukraine is especially interesting & relevant right now. #SteeleDossier
And this part discussing the whole idea of plausible deniability & to later sow seeds of doubt into whether Russia was even involved ...like now trying 2 pin the blame on #Ukraine. This kills two birds with one stone for Putin. #SteeleDossier Anyway re-read the dossier, if u can
Another interesting passage given the current controversies around #Ukraine military funding & the attempt by Russia and other elements here to sow doubt around whether Manafort was really corrupt .... but instead was framed. And I have an Ostrich coat to sell u #SteeleDossier

The Feds supposedly arrested Jeffrey Epstein last night & it's being reported that he'll appear in federal court in NY on Monday & his indictment will be unsealed. Guess we'll find out for sure on Monday.

Also interesting - it's being handled by SDNYs "Public Corruption Unit" 🧐
Here's what their "Public Corruption Unit" focuses on.

They work closely with Federal, State & City investigative agencies and the FBI to oversee government corruption crimes, including bribery, embezzlement, and fraud.

justice.gov/usao-sdny/crim…
Back in February, it was reported that the DOJ was looking into possible misconduct by dept attorneys that were involved in the original Epstein case.

Article brings up Acosta, however, he supposedly told officials that he welcomed the review.

#RobertMueller will be testifying before the House Judiciary and Intelligence committees on July 17.

Here are some crucial questions that should be asked when he testifies (Thread 👇). | Article by Jeff Carlson @themarketswork theepochtimes.com/33-key-questio…
1) Did #AttorneyGeneral Barr in any way misrepresent your 448-page report?

#Mueller failed to identify the grand jury info in the #MuellerReport. Barr noted that “it immediately meant that you know it was going to be a period of weeks before we could get the report out.”
2) Who actually wrote Volume I and Volume II of the #MuellerReport?

At this point, it isn’t known with certainty if #Mueller had any hand in writing the report directly, or if he simply served in an oversight capacity.

The narrative of #ObstructionOfJustice originated prior to the conclusion of the #MuellerReport. (Thread 👇)

Less than 6 months after #Mueller’s appointment, @BrookingsInst published “Presidential Obstruction of Justice: The Case of Donald J. Trump.” theepochtimes.com/tracing-the-or…
The report outlined a scenario whereby #Mueller would refer his #Obstruction findings to #Congress, which would then take up the matter and continue investigating.

The report also discussed ways Congress could #ImpeachTrump, mentioning the word “#Impeachment” 90 times.
2 of the report's authors, Barry Berke & @NormEisen, were later retained by #HouseJudiciaryCommittee Chairman @RepJerryNadler on a consulting basis as special oversight counsels to the Democrat majority staff. judiciary.house.gov/news/press-rel…

#AttorneyGeneral Barr is working to review the techniques used to investigate Trump’s 2016 campaign.

Here are 10 key questions that remain to be answered in the scandal that has become known as #Spygate (Thread 👇):

Commentary by @JasperFakkert theepochtimes.com/spygate-origin…
1. What was the role that @CIA and John Brennan’s ‘Interagency Task Force’ played?

Former CIA Director Brennan admitted that he passed intelligence received from the #UK on the Trump campaign to the @FBI with the intention of having them investigate it:
“It served as the basis…
… for the FBI investigation to determine whether such collusion [or] cooperation occurred.”

Notably, Brennan met with then-head of the #UK #Spy agency @GCHQ, Robert Hannigan, in #Washington in 2016. The meeting was unusual, since Hannigan’s US equivalent…

A recently released @StateDept memo revealed that #SteeleDossier author #ChristopherSteele met with Kathleen Kavalec, then-deputy assistant secretary for European and Eurasian affairs, on Oct. 11, 2016—10 days prior to the @FBI obtaining a #FISA warrant on Carter Page.
Noted in a May 10 letter by Sen. @LindseyGrahamSC to @SecPompeo & IG #Horowitz: “Ms. Kavalec’s contacts with Steele may have been the most significant and memorialized communications with him by a U.S. government official prior to the issuance of the Carter Page FISA warrant.”
