Danchenko was living in the #WashingtonDC area.

@DNC is getting desperate. A raid at #PresidentTrump’s home!?!?! After trying to trap him for 7 years? Must be hoping they will find his campaign plan on that computer.

And giving #Taiwán to #China?!? Must be part of the payback for the #2020Elections’ fraud.
@DNC is getting desperate. #Pelosi to #Taiwan right before they said, take it to #CCP …. Scuttlebutt it is the @DNC trying to get the #TaiwanChipManufacturer to move to the USA from #Taiwan….

From January, but still relevant...

A little background from @LeeSmithDC
tabletmag.com/sections/news/…
text:

"#VladimirPutin didn’t need the green light that #JoeBiden gave Russian forces during his marathon press conference last Thursday for a “minor incursion” into Ukraine.

The Russian president already knew the U.S. commander in chief couldn’t stop him even if he wanted to.
Sure, Putin has seen the polling and knows foreign entanglements won’t help a Democrat hemorrhaging support from his own party.

Looks like Aleksej Gubarev of Webzilla fame has quietly dropped their ongoing defamation suit against Buzzfeed. Wonder why? #SteeleDossier
Again i ask when has Kremlin put out a supporting narrative at the same time they were trying to run away from it aka #Guccifer2 #SethRich #wikileaks #UkraineCrowdstrike. Feed #disinfo to strengthen the Trump / Russia collusion narrative? 5D chess? Not buying it. #SteeleDossier

Okay these accusations by Durham that Danchenko lied to the FBI are incredibly sketchy. For example Danchenko is not lying that he didn't know Charles Dolan but rather that Dolan was not one of his sources for the #SteeleDossier. Check out this interview exhibit.
Danchenko in the covert interview thinks the FBI is asking his opinion of Charles Dolan & his interest in Russia as something that could be interpreted as malign. Danchenko essentially laughs. But in actuality FBI is subtly probing Danchenko to c if Dolan was one of his sources
So this is seriously open for interpretation depending on which side of the fence you are on. Durham essentially is saying Dolan must be one of Danchenko's sources & Danchenko is saying no. How that hell is this even legitimate line of inquiry ..besides exposing anonymous sources

BREAKING: @MaddowBlog tonight. So it WAS a covert communication channel between Trump, Alfa Bank, Spectrum ect. in 2016? Quote, "Its clear there's hidden communications between Trump and Alfa Bank". So John Durham lied about this in his investigation? @RepAdamSchiff @RepRiggleman
Here is a link to last night's segment on @MaddowBlog who expertly goes through the new implications that seems like ABSOLUTELY warrants new investigations and an investigation now into John Durham. #infosec #osint democraticunderground.com/1017690476
Our thread from earlier this month on yrs of collected details on the purported covert communications channel between Trump & Alfa Bank that has NEVER been explained. Their newest conspiracy that it was actually made up has fallen flat in a HUGE boomerang

News Analysis🔎The post-#Election push to pressure President Trump to concede, despite numerous credible allegations of #VoterFraud and ongoing legal challenges, is the culmination of a 4-year-long campaign against him. (Thread👇) theepochtimes.com/infographic-th…
This campaign started in 2016 when the #FBI launched a politically motivated investigation of his campaign. During his subsequent 4 years in office, there have been consistent efforts to remove him from office.
#Infographic: an overview of some of the main efforts made against the sitting @POTUS.

This is an issue that transcends party lines, as it is not only an assault on Trump, but an assault on the office of the presidency, and with it, an assault on the foundation of America.

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.

foxnews.com/politics/ica-s…
NEW: DNI Ratcliffe declassified "Annex A," a footnote in the 2017 ICA which detailed reporting by Christopher #Steele.
The footnote makes clear the internal concerns officials had over that document, however.
NEW: The annex states that the Intel Community had "only limited corroboration of the source’s[Steele's] reporting in this case and did not use it to reach the analytic conclusions of the CIA/FBI/NSA assessment."

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.”

News Analysis🔎The belief that Lt. @GenFlynn was set up by the @FBI has been backed up by a string of evidence in documents released by the #DOJ. (Thread👇) theepochtimes.com/flynn-was-set-…
#Flynn pleaded guilty in 2017 to one count of lying to the @FBI.

On May 7, however, the #DOJ dropped the case against him, saying that when #FBI interviewed #GeneralFlynn on Jan. 24, 2017, the investigation into him was “no longer justifiably predicated.” theepochtimes.com/doj-drops-case…
—The @FBI opened a case on #Flynn on Aug. 16, 2016. courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…

The stated reason was that @GenFlynn had “ties” to some entities “affiliated” with #Russia, and visited Russia the year before.

The @CIA's #InspectorGeneral has taken over a year to clear the release of a House Intelligence Committee report which contradicts the key conclusion of the intelligence community assessment on #Russian interference in the 2016 election. (Thread👇) theepochtimes.com/cia-watchdog-s…
The January 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA), prepared at the behest of President @BarackObama, claimed that #Russia interfered in the 2016 election to help Donald Trump.
The House Intelligence Committee’s public report on #Russia had already challenged the analytic tradecraft behind this central claim and suggested that the process of arriving at the assessment was not free of political interference. republicans-intelligence.house.gov/uploadedfiles/…

(1) From January 2017: A real Russia expert, @DavidSatter, looks at the Russia collusion narrative. "U.S. society is slipping into a quagmire of Russian disinformation in which the Putin regime will find it very easy to create reality and destroy facts."
nationalreview.com/2017/01/russia…
(2) Satter: "This has implications not only for U.S. security but also for the country’s psychological health." #disinformation #RussiaReport
(3) Satter: ""The recently released report that asserts that Russian president Vladimir Putin has been 'cultivating assisting and supporting Trump' for years and that the Russians have compromising information (kompromat) on him is, I believe, a deliberate Russian provocation."

DOJ accuses Russia & Qatar of bribing FIFA for rights to host soccer the World Cup. This case has connections to much of Swamp & stopping this case may have been a prime motivator of Russia & Qatar intervening in 2016 election. justice.gov/usao-edny/pr/t…
#ButNothingsHappening
This indictment went out late on Monday, I told @DrStefool I'd get a thread out on Tuesday afternoon, but life & posting has been disrupted with lockdown. But I am finally getting to post about it because it requires explaining connections to other scandals including #Spygate!
These are the 'new' defendants in a case that has been running for many years & including them in the RICO case against FIFA & it's continental management groups is a big step forward. It appears investigations into certain aspects of FIFA corruption were obstructed for years.

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.
