BREAKING from Trump via Giuliani: "The Trump Tower Moscow discussions were “going on from the day I announced to the day I won,” nytimes.com/2019/01/20/us/…
Mueller said that Cohen and Sater's latest discussions were late 2016. Either Cohen lied to Mueller about this (doesn't appear to be the case) or someone else from the Trump orbit picked up the negotiations.
Also, "the day I announced" ??? That's June 2015. Was this the Agalarov deal or the IC Expert deal? Who was negotiating then?
Summer 2016 - Trump is briefed about Russia hacks and efforts to infiltrate his campaign.
November 2016 - Trump is still negotiating a business deal in Russia with Russian government involvement in order to make himself richer.

There's a lot to unpack here. Short thread: nytimes.com/2022/02/21/wor…
Let's back up for a second. As of just a few weeks ago, NSO Group said that Pegasus *physically* couldn't operate on Israeli phone numbers. That massive lie is confirmed by this investigation and it is being buried. BUT
How much can we trust the Israeli investigation of their own use of Pegasus? There are obvious conflicts.

Apple hitting hard at NSO Group in a filing:

"Defendants’ misconduct has...instigated calls around the world for the imposition of additional sanctions and investigations into the pervasive misuse of Defendants’ products to commit human rights abuses."

Apple's discovery wishlist is... 👀
"NSO’s contacts with U.S.-based clients and potential clients" is particularly interesting. Apple is on the record saying NSO had U.S. clients now... Are they referring to FBI, which, by all accounts, didn't actually deploy anything?

Wow. Did NYPD lie to me?

I filed a FOIA request in 2020 seeking "All email correspondence with the keywords "Westbridge Technologies", or "NSO Group" including attachments, from 1st January 2015..."

NYPD said they were "unable to locate records responsive to your request."
In the spirit of transparency, here is my FOIA
Here's their response: "In regard to the document(s) which you requested, this unit is unable to locate records responsive to your request based on the information you provided."
