THREAD - Newly unsealed Flynn Records

1) Govt Memo in aid of sentencing, detailing the "significance and usefulness" of Flynn's cooperation

- Discussions re: Wikileaks (no follow-thru)
- Admin. outreach to Flynn (exact details unavailable; Mueller spins it)

2) McCabe Memo on his 1/24/2017 call with Flynn

Unsealed info relates to White House Security Brifing by Mike Steinbach and Bill Priestap on 1/21/2017

3) The Special Counsel's Exit Interview with Strzok

Reveals that Strzok was working with Acting NSD Asst AG Mary McCord

Also revealed that FBI General Counsel James Baker was part of the group that decided the agents wouldn't warn Flynn prior to the interview

Unsealed portion shows Baker and Principal Associate Deputy AG Matt Axelrod "later argued about the FBI's decision to interview Flynn"

Full Document:

Addendum to Govt's Memorandum in Aid of Sentencing

McCabe 1/24/2017 Memo re: Flynn Call

scribd.com/document/41035…

Full Document:

Special Counsel (likely Weissmann) exit interview of Peter Strzok

scribd.com/document/41035…

From the Special Counsel's Report - here is the voicemail in question left for Flynn's lawyer.

Mueller framed it as a possible effort to affect cooperation.

However - the VM asks for a "heads up"

McCord's involvement is important.

She knew of Flynn's call prior to the WaPo Logan Act leak of his conversation w/ the Russian Ambassador. (Pretext)

She later joined Yates in the WH meeting.

The DOJ has filed its Kevin Clinesmith sentencing memo

They want incarceration.

DOJ: Clinesmith wasn't just altering e-mails - he was lying about Carter Page in DMs to the FBI agent.

Thread.

@AWeissmann_

Why the Clinesmith lie was material:

"It would raise the issue of whether [Carter Page] had those interactions with the intent to assist the US gov't."

It would go to the "loyalties" of Carter Page.

Clinesmith knew FISC needed to be informed.

@AWeissmann_ disagrees 🤦‍♂️

@carterwpage

Clinesmith's lies "allowed the FBI to conduct surveillance" on @carterwpage thru a FISA application that "lacked probable cause"

He violated the duty of candor to the FISA court.

DOJ produces new Flynn evidence - 1/25/17 Notes FBI OGC lawyer notes.

Logan Act: "no reasonable prosecutor" would proceed.

Flynn call w/ Kislyak similar to "other transition teams"

"First time to use [Logan Act]"

Thread.

TOP FBI lawyer James Baker:

"How do you assess § 1001 (false statements) when you wouldn't prosecute the underlying crime?"

Big concession that this wasn't about the broader Crossfile Hurricane investigation.

Assessment of whether Flynn is in a "covert relationship w/ Russia":

"No, probably not based on facts to date and interview."

Will be necessary to compare this to the Flynn NSLs handled by Clinesmith. Possible predication issues. (See pic)

🚨Flynn update - Interview 302 from FBI Agent William Barnett

"BARNETT believed the prosecution of FLYNN by SCO (Team Mueller) was used as a means to 'get Trump'"

Thread.

Agent Barnett was assigned to Crossfire Razor (the Flynn counter-intel investigation).

Barnett was later assigned to the Special Counsel team.

Barnett: the predication for the Flynn investigation was "not great"

@RealSLokhova

Crossfire Hurricane source (likely Halper) accused Flynn of leaving a 2014 event with an undisclosed person.

Perhaps @RealSLokhova

FBI assessed this information to be not accurate

The Ghislaine Maxwell (Epstein) documents have been unsealed.

Will be posting excerpts here -

Starting with allegations of minor being trafficked to Maxwell, Prince Andrew, and Alan Dershowitz (as prev. alleged).

Thread.

The trafficking scheme was international in scope - in France, Ghislaine Maxwell ordered her give an "erotic massage" to a French hotel magnate.

Deposition of the victim:

"I was ordered by Ghislaine (Maxwell) to go and give him an erotic massage."

Serious allegations -

Maxwell directed the minor to have sex with former MIT scientist Marvin Minsky at Epstein's complex in the US Virgin Islands.

(Minsky pictured.)

@SidneyPowell1

DOJ has filed its Response to @SidneyPowell1 motion to compel production of documents in the Flynn case:

scribd.com/document/43300…

@SidneyPowell1

@SidneyPowell1 DOJ: There were no material changes made after 2/10/17 to the Flynn 302.

These blue-lined insertions [e.g. Russian Ambassador describing a Russian response] are material.

CC @KerriKupecDOJ

@SidneyPowell1

@SidneyPowell1 @KerriKupecDOJ This curious DOJ argument:

"Even if an earlier draft of the [302] once existed, there is no reason to believe it would materially differ" from the agents' notes.

Even if the original - and now disappeared - 302 "once existed"?? 🤔

@AnOpenSecret

New source documents: what was Robert Mueller's involvement in the Asimov case and plea deal?

Asimov got probation for having THOUSANDS of images of child porn.

In collaboration with @AnOpenSecret

Only pled guilty to two counts of "possession of material containing child pornography," despite having thousands of images.

The sentence? 36 months probation.
