#Rosenstein concluded the #FBI lacked sufficient reason to conduct an investigation into the president’s links to Russia
He suspected that the acting bureau director who approved the opening of the inquiry, Andrew G. McCabe, had conflicts of interest

#Rosenstein never told #McCabe about his decision, leaving the #FBI with the impression that the special counsel would take on the investigation into the president
McCabe said had he known #Mueller would not continue the inquiry, he would have had the F.B.I. perform it.

The #DOJ determined that 2 of the 4 #FISA applications on @CarterWPage were “not valid,” it was revealed in a declassified order released by Presiding #FISACourt Judge James Boasberg. (Thread👇) theepochtimes.com/doj-determines…
The #FISACourt wrote that it received notice of “material misstatements and omissions” in the #FISA applications made on @CarterWPage, apparently with respect to the final 2 FISA renewals. fisc.uscourts.gov/sites/default/…
The #FISACourt also noted that the #DOJ had made the assessment that with regard to these 2 applications, “there was insufficient predication to establish probable cause to believe that [@CarterWPage] was acting as an agent of a foreign power.”

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

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 👇)

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.

What makes these examples particularly notable is that access to the underlying material used in the #MuellerReport is extremely limited.
In instances where information is publicly available, they highlight inconsistencies, raising concerns that the report may be hiding more.

Here's the thing with #Rosenstein - a lot of folks trusted him bc they were certain he wasn't part of the conspiracy.
He wasn't.
He was just a garden-variety coward who cared about nothing more than his comfort and retirement.
Cowardice can be as deadly as corruption.

In other words, a “survivor” (and they mean, “by stepping on the corpses of others.”)
I think #Rosenstein chose to be a small, small man. And we should honor that choice. By henceforward calling him #SmallRod - don’t you think?
Lisez et relisez cette phrase (et le passage souligné en rouge) sur la campagne #Trump et la #Russie du rapport #Mueller, elle revient 2 fois dans les 15 premières pages. De la notion de "collusion" qui est d'ailleurs aussi beaucoup discutée dans les 1ères pages. #teasing
2) Après le résumé du volume 1 sur 7 pages, dont le texte précédent page 5 est extrait, le rapport #Muller narre d'abord ses découvertes sur l'opération de déstabilisation de l'élection US 2016 par l'IRA de Prigozhin, proche de #Poutine, sur les réseaux sociaux.
3) Cette partie très caviardée sur l'ingérence de l'IRA russe sur les réseaux sociaux conclut clairement: l'IRA de Prigozhin viola les lois US contre l'influence étrangère des campagnes mais les campagnes locales de #Trump contactées par l'IRA ignoraient l'origine russe (page 35)

Media need to stop portraying the #MuellerProbe as having failed to reach a 'conclusion'. The establishment of any crimes was SUBSIDIARY to the counterintelligence investigation. We need to know what #Mueller found, not what he DID NOT FIND. #BarrCoverUp:
In his letter appointing the Special Counsel, #Rosenstein authorized #Mueller to "conduct the investigation confirmed by then-FBI Director James B. Comey" [in his testimony of 3/20/17]. Here is how #Comey characterized the investigation in that testimony: washingtonpost.com/news/post-poli…
#Barr is disingenuously attempting to frame #Mueller's findings as "binary". A blatant attempt at cover up. If #Mueller found any evidence POTUS or anyone in his campaign/admin was/is compromised we MUST know to in order to ensure our #NationalSecurity.

@JenniferJJacobs Disingenuous. Mueller's mandate was very broad. In Rosenstein's own words:
@JenniferJJacobs In Comey's words: "ANY links" so eg #TrumpTowerMoscow or any other business dealings Trump may have had/been pursuing. And in Rosenstein's words (above), "ANY matters that arose...from the investigation". BROAD mandate. #Rosenstein & #Barr are trying to box this up way too neatly
@JenniferJJacobs We need to know if anyone in high office, especially those with top security clearance was being played by is compromised by the Russians/any other foreign entity. This is a national security matter. We need to know what Mueller's findings revealed.
#Mueller's Mandate was very broad. He was not solely tasked with assessing criminal liability. #BarrCoverUp
Media is botching coverage of #BarrCoverUp. Folks need to understand how badly we're being played. Pls help spread awareness by RTing this info on Mueller's mandate (focussing on #Rosenstein/#Comey's original words). Mueller was NOT limited to an assessment of criminal liability:
I realized late last night that a dominant narrative we are hearing about the #MuellerInvestigation from media is flat-out wrong. #Mueller did NOT have a very narrow mandate. His mandate was extremely broad. Let's look at it piece by piece. /1
@BarbMcQuade's excellent article in @thedailybeast made it clear that we are so deeply mired in 'analysis' (& spin) that the obvious easily evades us. If the President cannot be indicted then what was the PURPOSE of the #MuellerInvestigation? /2 thedailybeast.com/barr-sounds-mo…
I went back to #Rosenstein's original letter appointing #Mueller. A simple reading makes it obvious that Mueller's mandate was the farthest thing from restrictive (as we have constantly been told.) It was actually remarkably BROAD. /3 nytimes.com/interactive/20…

Twitter is filled with lying sacks today. @AlanDersh did not say, at some level of high generality, that the 25th Amendment violates the #Constitution. I'm linking the video because I had to go watch to see exactly what was said.
As you can plainly hear, @alandersh made the point that the proposed invocation by #mccable, #rosenstein, and others, of the 25th Amendment would be unconstitutional. And he was correct in that assertion.
The 25th Amendment is not the "we are unhappy with you" amendment to the Constitution. It is the "unable to perform the duties of the office" due to disability amendment.

💥Meeting w/ Trump after his sudden firing of FBI Director Comey was so concerning, Acting director McCabe opened an investigation into the President’s ties to Russia quickly to assure "the case could not be closed or vanish in the night without a trace." washingtonpost.com/world/national…
“I was speaking to the man who had…won the election for the presidency, and who might have done so with the aid of the government of Russia, our most formidable adversary on the world stage, and that was something that troubled me greatly”—McCabe recalling 1st meeting with Trump
💥McCabe: “The president and his men were trying to work me the way a criminal brigade would operate.” He describes Oval O meeting reminiscent of Russia mafia talking of a protection scheme: He felt Trump pressed him to do his FBI bidding if he didn’t want to be fired like Comey.
BREAKING: CNN reporting that then acting FBI Dir Andrew McCabe opened an Obstruction Investigation (probe) into Trump after he fired Comey. More to come...Swalwell had some good stuff to say @ this. #ThursdayThoughts
2-CNN sources saying that Rod Rosenstein & top FBI officials felt that Trump needed to be 'reined in', and that a DOJ official 'strongly disputed' Rosenstein as he sought to curb Trump's behavior. This is a BIG story..speaks to a lot of firings that eventually happened.
