Awww, u mad?
Unclassified Director of National Intelligence Report this week says for the first time that China and Russia can cut portions of the US electrical grid or power supply at will.
We interviewed a WSJ energy reporter about it Wed night – which caused RT, Sputnik, and Wikileaks to all freak out over our coverage.

It’s so weird to see what hits their alarm bells.
Here’s the segment that got them so excited if you’re curious:

And here’s the DNI report (it’s the stuff on pages 5-6 that make them SO MAD SO MAD SO MAD):

Even if Alex Acosta were not a Trump cabinet official right now, this federal court ruling about his behavior in the Jeffrey Epstein case would/should put Acosta in headlines across the country.

Julie K. Brown at the Miami Herald @jkbjournalist is the one who broke this open. Her story is the best one you'll see today summing up what has happened:

miamiherald.com/news/state/flo…
For the Epstein case itself, this is a breakthrough because for the first time, a court is confirming Epstein's serial abuse of multiple minor girls (a federal crime) in Florida, elsewhere in the US, and abroad.

Last week, we saw the sentencing submission from the Special Counsel's Office in the Paul Manafort case in Virginia (19-24 years, millions in fines and restitution).

Manafort's defense has not yet filed their own sentencing memo in the Virginia case.
In DC however, the judge had set this Friday (2/22) as the deadline for sentencing submissions from both the prosecutors and Manafort's defense.

Today, Manafort's defense asked for -- and got -- an extension so they won't have to file until Monday 2/25.
But the Special Counsel's Office confirms to us that the extension of that DC deadline is just for the defense.

Prosecutors still expect to submit their sentencing document about Manafort, in DC, by this Friday.

1/ Trump rejected the consensus of U.S. intelligence agencies that Russia interfered in the 2016 presidential election, saying he doesn't "see any reason why" Russia would have interfered.

nytimes.com/2018/07/16/wor…
2/ GOP senators called the Trump-Putin press conference "bizarre," "flat-out wrong," "shameful" and a "missed opportunity" to not hold Russia accountable for 2016 election meddling.

(1) #AboutStrzok This is #PeterStrzok . He is in his 40s. He works for the #FBI . He was the only person to interview @HillaryClinton , with no recording, on her #HRCEmail investigation .
(2) #AboutStrzok How many #STRZOK family members are there? There are only 100 total Americans out of 300 million with this name . You can Google this. #PeterStrzok must be unique in such a small family, right?
