All of these reporters knew who this "Russian in DC" was for months, if not years.
Right here, for instance.

"This article is based on interviews in RECENT MONTHS with current and former officials who spoke on the condition that their names not be used discussing classified information."

If anything, this is just so that we can have a repeat of "oh no he's in danger!!!" and "we did this to protect you, blumpf!!" once his identity is outed, much like Halper.

My latest @EpochTimes - Media Reveal Russian Source for Trump–Russia Allegations Amid Ongoing John Durham Investigation
theepochtimes.com/media-reveal-r…
2) The CNN article cites a May 2017 meeting between Trump, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, and then-Russian Ambassador to the U.S. Sergey Kislyak, claiming that Trump had divulged intelligence provided by Israel regarding ISIS activities in Syria.
3) The supposed classified information that CNN accused Trump of mishandling during his meeting with Lavrov and Kislyak appears almost identical to what had been publicly reported by CNN over a month previously.

Bent on growth, Zuck & Sandberg ignored warning signs about their platform being used by Russia and then sought to conceal them from public view.
nytimes.com/2018/11/14/tec…
This report is based on interviews w more than 50 current & former Fb execs & employees, lawmakers, govt officials, lobbyists & congressional staff members. Most spoke on the condition of anonymity because they had signed NDAs, were not authorized, or feared retaliation.
At critical moments over the last three years, Sandberg & Zuck were distracted by personal projects, and passed off security and policy decisions to subordinates, according to current and former executives.

THREAD: here’s a breakdown of the JUICY details in the sentencing memo filed by lawyers for Alex van der Zwaan (“v.d.Swamp”), the son-in-law of #Russian🇷🇺oligarch, German Khan (AlfaGroup/AlfaBank co-founder)‼️1/

#TrumpRussia

Link to court document👉🏼courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…
In this thread, we will focus on what v.d.Swamp said about his case, specifically what info he tried to COVER UP.🤨

For details on the CRIMES that convicted felon v.d.Swamp committed, see👇🏼this thread👇🏼on Mueller’s sentencing memo.😎 2/

Of course, van der Zwaan’s attorneys try to spin a sob story about how v.d.Swamp’s “world has collapsed” and “his career has been destroyed.”🙄

Well, yeah. That’s what happens when you LIE to the Feds and DESTROY EVIDENCE‼️3/

This account of the Trump administration's reaction to Russia's election interference is based on interviews with more than 50 current and former U.S. officials wapo.st/2C6auoX
It’s a situation without parallel in U.S. history: The personal insecurities of the president — and his refusal to accept what many in his administration regard as objective reality — have impaired the government's response to a national security threat wapo.st/2C6auoX
