""#Unmasking" probe commissioned by #Barr concludes without charges or any public report" 🤷♂️😤🙄🖕 washingtonpost.com/national-secur…
"Even if it ultimately produced no results of consequence, legal analysts said, it allowed Trump and other conservatives to say Obama-era officials were under scrutiny, as long as the case stayed active." washingtonpost.com/national-secur…
"From early on in the Trump administration, some GOP lawmakers have sought to investigate and highlight Obama-era unmasking requests, believing them to be inappropriate. The effort was initially pushed in part by Rep. Devin Nunes..." 🤦♂️🙄 washingtonpost.com/national-secur…

In May, then-acting DNI @RichardGrenell declassified 6,000 pages of transcripts of interviews from @HouseIntel #Russia probe, where officials acknowledged they had no “empirical evidence” of #collusion or a #conspiracy between the @realDonaldTrump campaign& #Russia in 2016
NEW: Senate Homeland Security Committee subpoenaed Cambridge Professor Stefan Halper as part of probe into origins of #CrossfireHurricane. Halper has been long reported as an #FBI informant, including during 2016, when he made contacts w/ @carterwpage @GeorgePapa19 
NEW:Halper is compelled to produce all records related to FBI's #CrossfireHurricane probe; DOJ IG's review of that investigation;& the #unmasking of US "persons or entities affiliated, formally or informally, with the Trump campaign,Trump transition, or Trump administration.”
NEW: Halper is required to produce those documents to @SenRonJohnson committee on October 14 at 5:00pm.
News Analysis🔎The @EpochTimes has so far counted 85 “Unusual” instances for the case of Lt. @GenFlynn, which has been filled with contradictions, falsehoods, apparent blunders, extraordinary moves, and strange coincidences. (Thread👇) theepochtimes.com/flynn-case-85-…
The case of @GenFlynn is inevitably heading toward its conclusion.
While District Judge Emmet Sullivan is trying to keep it going, there’s only so much he can do since there’s nobody left to prosecute the case after the #DOJ dropped it last month. theepochtimes.com/doj-drops-case…

In the latest developments, the #WashingtonDC appeals court set a hearing in the case on June 12, while the #DOJ’s solicitor general himself, as well as 5 of his deputies, urged the court to order the lower-court judge to accept the case dismissal.
NEW: Senate Homeland Security Committee authorized, on an 8-6 vote, @SenRonJohnson to send subpoenas to @FBI, @StateDept, @ODNIgov for #Russia probe docs, #Steele #Dossier & testimony from @Comey @JohnBrennan @SamanthaJPower @AmbassadorRice Sidney Blumenthal, James Clapper &more
NEW: subpoenas to the @FBI for the production of all records related to the #crossfireHurricane investigation & "all records provided or made available to @TheJusticeDept inspector general for its #FISA review
NEW: subpoenas to the @StateDept for all records related to meetings or communications between State Dept. officials or employees w/ #ChristopherSteele #Dossier
But @RichardGrenell clearly states names of senior officials who requested #unmasking does not jeopardize sources or methods. We filed #FOIA requests today for @JMadisonProject & @joshgerstein for all officials' names from 2016 to now who requested unmaskings. In 10 days we sue.
Today we learned @StateDept denied our clients' expedited processing. The ten day period elapses on Friday, June 5th. Congratulations @SecPompeo, you just earned yourself yet another #FOIA lawsuit!

WaPo (@nakashimae) explodes myth in #Obamagate
Sen. Graham asks: who unmasked Flynn?!
WSJ editorial board insinuates: Biden unmasking request maybe linked to leak!
Answer:
WaPo: "Flynn’s name was never redacted."
There was nothing to unmask!

2. WaPo also undercuts attempt by National Review's Andy McCarthy to revive #Obamagate.
McCarthy's made up theory: CIA not FBI intercepted Flynn-Kislyak call.
WaPo: "It was the FBI...that wiretapped Kislyak’s calls and created the summary and transcript"

3. This should help put nail in #unmasking brouhaha:
"When the FBI circulated [report], they included Flynn’s name from the beginning…There were therefore no requests for the unmasking of that information"
— former senior official
@SallyQYates & McCabe testimony confirms that

Other items:
1. Larger point: McCarthy now admits NSA #unmasking list has NOTHING to do with Kislyak-Flynn call.
2. Smaller point: McCarthy overlooks Flynn 302 which points to Kislyak being in DC

2. Andy McCarthy's admission in National Review:
"It appears that not a single listed unmasking [in NSA list] pertains to the December 29 Kislyak call."
Yep.
Grenell's #UnmaskingFlynn list was a propaganda ruse.

3. One more on the smaller point:
"The calls were picked up as part of routine electronic surveillance of Russian officials and agents in the United States, which is one of the FBI’s responsibilities, according to the U.S. officials."

Obama told Sally Yates about the Flynn-Kislyak call during an Oval Office meeting on January 5, 2017. Thanks to #Unmasking declass by Grenell today, we know that Denis McDonough, Obama’s chief of staff, made an unmasking request of Flynn that same day: amgreatness.com/2020/05/13/oba…
“There are no other unmasking requests between Flynn’s call on December 29, 2016 and the January 5, 2017 meeting.
But that might not have been the only leak tied to McDonough. Mary McCord testified that ‘in theory’ the leak to the Wash Post came from the Obama White House.”
But that might not have been the only leak tied to McDonough. Mary McCord testified that ‘in theory’ the leak to the Wash Post came from the Obama White House.”
The illegal leaker of the Flynn call to David Ignatius has never been charged. Could it have been McDonough?

NEW: DOJ official told Fox News that DOJ is now taking a look at #unmasking files that acting Director of National Intelligence Ric Grenell delivered to the DOJ last week @RichardGrenell
NEW: The DOJ official told Fox News that the Justice Department currently has no plans to release that list of names. @JakeBGibson

Sources say documents related to that process are expected to be released soon
Sources say documents related to that process are expected to be released soon
Sources tell Fox News that the documents, when released, will be released by the @TheJusticeDept, not ODNI.
The reason for that, per colleague @GillianHTurner:
The intel community has no authority over its own information when it comes to releasing to the public. Any US government intel the is released to the public lawfully must first undergo review either by POTUS or DOJ

In a newly unredacted footnote from the @JusticeOIG #IGReport on #FISAabuse, the urgency behind the @FBI obtaining a #FISA warrant on Trump campaign adviser @CarterWPage becomes clear. (Thread👇) theepochtimes.com/declassificati…

In the #IGReport, #Horowitz detailed a last-minute flurry of activity that transpired ahead of the issuance of the @CarterWPage #FISA, including a possible intervention from then-Deputy @FBI Director McCabe, to push a seemingly reluctant #DOJ official, Stuart Evans, for approval.
“Footnote 276” was initially redacted in the #IGReport, but was declassified, among other footnotes, following a request from @SenRonJohnson and @ChuckGrassley.
In the declassified footnote, IG #Horowitz elaborated on the urgency behind #LisaPage’s communications with #McCabe:

Hey @brhodes why did the @FBI deny your security clearance? Looks like it worked out though, Obama just pushed you right through to top secret clearance so you could get to work on the #IranDeal meanwhile all #MSM wants to talk about it Kushner’s security clearance🔍 #Hello2018 
Of course @johnpodesta knew, well someone turned a blind eye would be oh so curious to know if the #FBI ever changed their mind and if so, who's name was on the report #wikileaks #ticktock
