Mueller hands Dems a gift and they’re already fumbling It. "Democrats passing on impeaching Trump would be a statement that the rule of law is too much of a pain in the ass to uphold."

THIS right here ->

JAN 2016: Mifsud & ['former' IRA employee] discussed [██] meeting in Russia

SPRING 2016: [Fmr IRA] was in contact w/ [██] that was linked to a RU Military of Defense employee linked to GRU-controlled Facebook accounts used to promote the DCLeaks releases
Recall the "oranges" of the Trump-Russia probe: In May 2016, Papadopoulos told an Australian diplomat that Russia had dirt on HRC, as told to him by Mifsud, who was linked to GRU-controlled Facebook accounts used to promote the DCLeaks releases.

SCOOP: The Justice Dept plans to release a 'lightly redacted' version of Mueller's report with a detailed blow-by-blow of Trump's conduct re obstruction — analyzing tweets, private threats, etc...

"The report will reveal that Mueller decided he could not come to a conclusion on obstruction because it was difficult to determine Trump’s intent and some of his actions could be interpreted innocently--"

Color me skeptical.

Uproar!!!

📌Mueller report will be released in the afternoon, lightly redacted, revealing detailed look at O of J probe.

📌Barr & Rosenstein will give a press conf & deliver the partisan Barr Report 2.0 at 9:30am edt

📌Mueller not invited.
💣MuellerEve2💣

DOJ will present MR w/out certain redactions available to certain members of Congress/staff "in an appropriate setting."

Barr briefed & had numerous convos w/ WH re MR so they had time to strategize & prep a rebuttal while withholding it from American public.
💣MuellerEve3💣

The delay was necessary so Trump’s lawyers could strategize & prepare the rebuttal & control the narrative ahead of public release.

Nadler is deeply troubled to hear the WH was briefed abt the MR b/4 congress or the American people.

Wait a minute...Kaspersky went on the offensive?
Weird now pray tell why would they do that
-cough backdoor
-cough but they found {insert name of malware}
-cough but but but...no coconuts
HUGE Buried Lede

BLACK CUBE...now why pray tell would Black Cube offer such a vociferous denial.
Beyond the “private investigator” this might the most damning & critical datapoint.
Issuing a denial letter is a tell

An undercover operative targeted several cybersecurity experts in an apparent effort to gather intelligence about critics of Kaspersky Lab, the Russian antivirus firm
Keir Giles first thought was that the mans suit looked too cheap for a private equity executive. The man seated in front of him at the London hotel claimed to live in Hong Kong, but didnt seem overly familiar with the city.

I know what infosec twitter will be talking about today. apnews.com/a3144f4ef5ab45…
For several months last year, an undercover operative calling himself Lucas Lambert lured cybersecurity experts to fancy hotels in an apparent effort to get dirt on opponents of Kaspersky Lab.
apnews.com/a3144f4ef5ab45…
If that name sounds familiar, it should. @citizenlab’s @jsrailton says he has found digital connections between Lucas Lambert and another operative, Michel Lambert, that he and I ambushed in New York in January. apnews.com/9f31fa2aa72946…

Are GOP senators visiting Russia now as another prelude to a Trump-Putin summit? Why are Republicans making nice with the authoritarian govt that attacked our election, wages war on our allies, & is partially responsible for our daily Trump nightmare?? And on Independence Day ffs

THREAD: in May’16, George Papadopoulos told #Australia’s🇦🇺top diplomat in Britain that #Russia🇷🇺had dirt on Hillary Clinton.🤨

*Only 3 wks before*, Maltese “professor” Mifsud told PapaD that Russia had 1,000’s of emails that would embarrass HRC‼️1/

nytimes.com/2017/12/30/us/…
According to the NYTimes, PapaD had been drinking heavily, beforemspilling the beans to Aussie diplomat, Alexander Downer.🙄

Just 2 months later, hacked DNC emails began appearing online👉🏼Aussie officials passed the info about PapaD to US‼️ 2/
What so alarmed US officials to provoke the FBI to open a counterintelligence investigation into the Trump🇷🇺campaign months before the election⁉️

It was NOT the #SteeleDossier, as Trump & other Republicans have alleged.🤨 3/
