If I didn't say it earlier, you MUST watch #TheComeyRule. It puts a linear, human sequence on things we've otherwise only gone back and reconstructed - and something interesting clicked:
the chatter about HRC's emails was always projection...
maybe the investigation was too.
like, it shows the Clinton email investigation wasn't referred to the FBI by the IC IG until JULY 2015 (July 6, 2015 ). That's not until AFTER BOTH:
- the Hastert indictment in May 2015... &
- Trump announcing his run...
And I believe the referral came after the SMARTech breach began too - IIRC, it began was shortly after the Hastert indictment sometime in June 2015 (though I can't seem to find the date offhand, it was based on a months-long date range subtracted from 12/2015).
But that could adds another level of complexity to the narrative - if the Clinton email investigation didn't start until AFTER the RNC hack started...
that's more than just fortuitous projection - that's active fuckery while the SMARTech breach was ongoing.
And given:
- Rudy's IC links and intimate knowledge of the events ongoing at the NYFO
- Rage Furby Charles Johnson's involvement in the catfishing of Weiner that began in Jan 2015 and resulted in Weiner's laptop ending up in the NYFO in October...
it adds even more depth to the centralized control of all these narratives (or at least centralized involvement and strategy) that spun out from the treasonous intersection of Russian agents and the Trump campaign... WHILE the SMARTech breach was ongoing.
Especially since the film seemed to reference what I've long-suspected - that Trump was receiving compromising info on his "opponents" before HRC became his opponent - IOW, during the GOP primaries.
And that's more than just collusion - it would be conspiracy.
But I'm hoping to get clarification on confidence in historical accuracy of some of the lines in the script from @BillyRay5229 or @jeff_daniels to increase certainty on this analysis...
And if you don't trust the role that Rosenstein played, I'll certainly have more coming on that tip too.
Remember Rod was a long-time GOP operative on Ken Starr's independent counsel investigation of Bill Clinton, along with Alex Azar & Brett Kavanaugh...
And that investigation led to a serial child rapist
(and my neighbor for 18 years) becoming Speaker of the House for almost a decade*..
which provided sufficient kompromat for the Russians to put Trump (another child sex predator), into the White House.
*PLUS links to Epstein
So, if I got some useful new context out of watching #TheComeyRule, I bet you will too.
Even if you don't, it's solid work with a fluid script + BRILLIANT casting:
I mean, @thomaslennon as Jeff Sessions doesn't make the past 5 years worth it... but it helps.
P.S., might I suggest a suitable title for the next chapter that drops when we eventually get the meat of what will come out of any counterintelligence investigation:
Seriously. It's just BEGGING to be called "The Hastert Rule."
