Robert Allen Jones acted as the Deputy Assistant Director of the Counterintelligence Division at the Federal Bureau of Investigation's Headquarters from 2014.

However, Robert Allen Jones was removed from his counterintelligence position in August 2016 by Director James Comey as he was transferred to the position of Assistant Director of the Weapons of Mass Destruction Directorate.

For reference, Robert Jones's former position as Deputy Assistant Director of the Counterintelligence Division was then taken over by Peter Strzok, who applied for it in July 2016.

On December 31, 2018, Josh Gerstein at Politico published the article "Suspect's Twitter messages played role in NSA hacking-tools leak probe".

politico.com/story/2018/12/…
"Messages that the former NSA computer security specialist, Hal Martin, sent via Twitter appear to have led to an FBI raid on his Maryland home and to his arrest on charges of retaining a vast trove of classified information there without permission."

politico.com/story/2018/12/…
For reference, Harold T. Martin III was arrested on August 27, 2016 after the Shadow Brokers initiated a hunt within the National Security Agency, where they found 16 years worth of classified information.

Since @jimsciutto doesn't understand that Christopher Steele was hired in June 2016 and the contract between Fusion GPS and Free Beacon ended before then, and that the first memo was written for June 20, 2016, I will explain it:

Christopher Steele was hired to write the dossier.
The fact that @CNN and @jimsciutto keep saying that Republicans funded the dossier would join with @Comey's idea that Republicans funded the dossier, which is completely incorrect.
You know, it's not the first time @jimsciutto has claimed that parts of the dossier have been verified. This was back in February 2017 though. I wonder who his source is?

"The DNC had several meetings with representatives of the FBI's Cyber Division and its Washington Field Office, the DOJ's National Security Division, and US Attorney's Offices, and it responded to a variety of requests for cooperation..."
"... but the FBI never requested access to the DNC's computer servers", Eric Walker, the DNC's deputy communications director, told BuzzFeed News in an email.

Quote is from Ali Watkins' BuzzFeed News article from January 4, 2017, "The FBI Never Asked For Access To Hacked Computer Servers".

(1) Updates thread #1: Investigation into series of suspicious packages.
(2) A total of 10 suspicious packages under investigation at this time.
(3) "We are discovering things by the hour."

For me, "non biological" rules out ricin and cornstarch. It could be inert or otherwise. I've seen no evidence yet that any of the devices were capable of causing physical injury. They cause fear though, making them terroristic.

BURN AFTER READING: a thread on the organization of the FBI’s Counterintelligence Division and personnel changes prior to and during Operation Crossfire Hurricane.
For obvious reasons, the FBI doesn’t readily provide detailed info on the organization of its Counterintel Division and the agents who staff it.
This lack of knowledge of structure and people is the biggest obstacle I faced when attempting to decipher the meaning of the texts between Peter Strzok and Lisa Page.

Five years ago today, two bombs exploded near the finish line of the Boston Marathon. Three people died, and hundreds were injured. Later that week, all hell broke loose in the Boston area. We still don't know who built the bombs.
In 2015, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was found guilty of bombing the marathon and killing an MIT police officer. He was sentenced to death. The FBI seems to have moved on. But key facts in the case are missing. This is a thread about the loose ends.
The bombings happened on Marathon Monday, April 15, 2013, at around 2:50pm. For days, the government wouldn't say anything about whether it had suspects. Then, on Thursday April 18, at around 5:20pm, the FBI released photos of its suspects.

(THREAD) This thread has everything you need to know about Peter Strzok—the FBI agent who Mueller demoted, Trump wants prosecuted for Treason, and Trump's agents in Congress say led a Deep State coup attempt. Please read and share to end Trump's disinformation campaign on Strzok.
1/ Peter Strzok is a military veteran who's worked for the FBI for approximately a quarter-century, through both Democratic and Republican presidential administrations. The FBI has promoted him again and again since the 90s for his superlative intelligence and investigative work.
2/ Agent Strzok—a Midwesterner educated at Georgetown—began his FBI career as a mere intelligence research specialist, but due to superlative performance saw himself promoted repeatedly until he'd become, by mid-2017, Deputy Assistant Director of the Counterintelligence Division.
