Let me peruse this at leisure, pointing out the things that seem interesting. 🕵️♀️
Page 12 of the PDF: why would Manafort ask Gates whether Rick was at the June 9 Trump Tower meeting when Manafort himself was in attendance? 
Also Page 12:
At the risk of pointing out the obvious, a non-pecuniary interest can be a thing of value. This matters later when we get to quid pro quos.
Donnyboy was obsessed with the whereabouts of the emails, which he thought would give the campaign leverage over Hillary.

That the campaign and the RNC were euphoric about the use of stolen, hacked data shows why having a sleazoid lobbyist with extensive ties to mobligarchs run your campaign is such a bad idea.
#WheresManafort.
Wikileaks got the stolen data from Russian intelligence.

Also Page 13: Flynn, who had the most Russia contacts of anyone on the campaign, said the Russians were not involved in the hack AND that America’s intelligence community would not be able to figure it out.
He had been the DIA and he said that.

Who is Who?
Manafort is bigly in league with Deripaska and various Ukrainians,
Jared is all over China like a cheap Hong Kong suit
George is a coffeeboy.
Lots of foreign interests want access to the campaign.
Manafort, Client 1 and Client 3 are thick as thieves.

Gates claims he did not know the source of hacked emails

He seems...I dunno... petulant.

However, we should note that whatever it was about Jeff Sessions, then on the campaign, and 45’s first AG, is heavily redacted.
Also — Donnyboy also had extensive Russian contacts. [Hi, Emin.]

The Kyrgyrstan realtors may prove an interesting rabbit hole.
However the takeaway here is that
“The RNC was energized by the June 12 announcement.”
Greedy, scruple-less, & getting foreign interference in an American campaign.

For those of you who are budding wannabe Tom Clancy’s, take note:

Gates’ own lawyer is named Tom Green.

Pages 32-37 are the handwritten notes covering the 4/11 interview.

Despite public knowledge that Russian intel was behind the hack RNC was still “looking through releases” and “pursuing missing emails” in October 2016.
Also, Caputo was fired.

Sometime after the DNC nominating convention, Gates was in a limo with Trump enroute to the airport from Trump Tower when DJT got a call. The candidate told Rick that more leaks were coming once they had boarded.

Just remember, whatever you think of them & however low you think they have sunk, there is always a new low.
Now Kellyanne Conway and Steve Bannon enter, stage left.
Gates is all torn up that they arrived on the scene too late to salvage Manafort’s career as campaign manager.

Sheer speculation on my part to think most of Page 44 has to do with the campaign collaborating with the foreign entity, Wikileaks, to dump a new tranche of emails in order to deflect from the #accesshollywood tapes. All I can factually say is this is ⬛️⬛️⬛️ as all get out.

“The use of the Trump Org’s “party line” with respect to Russia went earlier than the closing of TRUMP TOWER BATUMI and TRUMP TOWER MOSCOW.”
Cohen discussed TTM & Russia with Trump when the news reports started to come out, before Feb 2017.

“TRUMP' s July 27 2016 statement was untrue. In July, COHEN spoke to TRUMP about the statement . TRUMP told COHEN they have no deals in Russia.

I dunno, maybe because he’d spent about a decade trying to bring the Moscow tower to fruition with first one oligarch [hi, Fuks] & then another [hi, Agalarov]?

If memory serves, Trump said he did not have any business interests in Russia on July 27, 2016. But all the news on this site from that day is about him asking Russia, if you’re listening, to please find Hillary’s emails. It was at the same event.
That’s enough rabbitholing.
Note also on Page 71 that Cohen agrees to meet NYT reporter Megan Twohey & is apparently astonished she wants to get down to brass tacks rather than play footsie.
He lies to her, saying that the Moscow tower project is DOA.
When in fact it is not.

The deception about the Moscow tower is a script that “TRUMP, HICKS, and KELLYANNE CONWAY came up with months before. It was the party line to dismiss the notion.”

Bannon told 45 that Sessions quitting was not surprising. They had talked about it months before.
Trump raged on. He wanted a lawyer like Roy Cohn. He wanted an AG like JFK had [but sadly 45’s own brother died from alcoholism and Cohn was never AG].

Astonishly, Trump even praised Eric Holder, whose refusal to turn over documents subpoenaed by Darrell Issa led to a seven year long contempt of Congress charge. The case ended in a stalemate, both sides unhappy with Juge Amy Berman Jackson.

So much gaslighting.
The deal to sell Maison d’le Amitie to Rybolovlev? Totally legit.
Would Trump really not recognize Felix Sater if he was in the same room? Let me ask my source >at the Intercept<
Millian who?
Cambridge Analytica, nah.
So much gaslighting.
Page 125 is as juicy as a ripe peach.
Barbara Ledeen’s unfulfilled quest to uncover Hillary’s missing #ButHerEmails is just the opening act.
Bannon spends two unredacted paragraphs on yes, voter influencing, but no, Cambridge Analytica wasn’t involved and I didn’t go to London.

Bannon most certainly did not tell Roger Stone he loved the idea of Stone going to London to meet with Assange, either, one must think.
And then, to close up Page 125, enter the coffeeboy, stage right. Bannon wanted Trump to meet the Egyptians & George wanted to help, but nope

I have enough dirt, I don’t need your dirt, said no gossip or “darkness is good” campaign manager, ever.
This strains all credulity, Steve.
As far as clowns go, Coffeeboy and Clovis are out, but Roger Stone is in. Alrighty.
And this 1/7/2016 email 🔍 tell us more.

🚨 CAMBRIDGE ANALYTIC CLAIMED THEY COULD HELP MICRO-TARGET VOTERS ON FACEBOOK 🚨
And Steve Bannon was Vice President of SCL, Cambridge Analytica’s parent company. This explains why his memory is so faulty. That, and the whiskey.
Malloch who?

Steve fills Trump’s head with conspiracy theories — missing emails, Uranium One — but Wikileaks and the Podesta semaiks were nothing burgers. Anyhoo, the cyber guys handled the cyber, even though Bannon was a senior executive of Cambridge Analytica.
Gotcha.

Bannon remembers the details when it comes to Erik Prince hosting a fundraiser, but zilch about Wikileaks. Odd how selective a thing memory can be.
Don’t make enemies, and don’t self-indict. Bannon’s othe axioms, after Darkness is Good.

If any part of Page 131 is not perjury, I will be 💯❌💯 dumfounded.
Manafort had no involvement after leaving campaign.
My cell doesn’t keep texts? Someone else set that up.
WhatsApp? What’s that?
Did I text? I can’t recall.

That’s a wrap on Bannon’s Valentine perjury.
Up through pages 177 are handwritten notes.
Pages 178-242 are emails and other supporting documents that we must save for another day, resisters.
Pleasant, impeachmenty dreams 😴

Dammit this thread is turning into a patchwork quilt
Clearly I should take up knitting...
Oh speaking of Caputo, this just washed up on the shores of memory.
Does 45 have the AG he wanted in Barr?
Or is Ukraine is a bridge too far?
Quite a few seem to think
That a stint in the clink
Would their résumés mar.

So there you have it.
Trump knew from Stone about Wikileaks.
