It was BuzzFeed's FOIA lawsuits (5) that caused DOJ to release the primary source Mueller docs this morning. Subpoenas, emails, letters & 500 pgs of FBI witness interviews. FASCINATING reading, all day long! This is a good run-down. #SaturdayThoughts thehill.com/homenews/admin…
2-"The summaries include significant information regarding Mueller's investigation and witnesses his unit interviewed over the course of the investigation. For example, Rick Gates, who had served as Trump's deputy campaign chairman, told investigators in April 2018 that Manafort
3-"pushed a conspiracy theory that Ukraine, not Russia, initiated the hack of the Democratic National Committee. Trump appeared to address that theory during a July 25 phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky that is now at the center of a House impeachment inquiry.
4-"Tom Bossert, who served in the administration between 2017 and 2018, said in September that he once told Trump that the claim is a "completely debunked" conspiracy theory. The documents also include former White House chief strategist and Trump campaign aide Steve Bannon's
5-"emails regarding Manafort. According to BuzzFeed News, the former Trump aide's emails show that Manafort was advising the Trump campaign just days before the election, despite being fired in August. The records reveal that Manafort emailed White House senior adviser and
6-"Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner ahead of the 2016 election to express his optimism about Trump's chances. After Kushner forwarded the email to Bannon, Bannon replied, “We need to avoid this guy like the plague."
7-"“Paul is nice guy [sic] but we can’t let word get out he is advising us," he said in an email on Nov. 5, 2016, according to BuzzFeed News. "They are going to try to say the Russians worked with wiki leaks [sic] to give this victory to us.” ~The Hill
8-And here's the BuzzFeed pc with a link to the internal Mueller documents themselves. This is incredibly enlightening reading. Well worth your time. #SaturdayThoughts

In all of the Trump created chaos & legal delays it can be hard to lose track.. Just bc Trump/DOJ are delaying doesn't mean that it's not going to catch up to them. It's taking time, but we will get there.. THIS MATTERS. #MondayMotivation politico.com/news/2019/11/0…
2-"The final year of President Donald Trump’s first term will be loaded with legal landmines — and it’s not just the impeachment cases. Trump could face court rulings that say he is illegally profiting from foreign governments, that he must hand over his tax returns and that
3-"lawmakers should see more of Robert Mueller’s Russia probe evidence. He may even get hit with Supreme Court decisions that rebuff his administration’s bold claims of presidential immunity from prosecution and congressional investigations.

WaPo rptg from 'a person working on the investigation who spoke on the condition of anonymity' that as of late last night, Rick Perry now IS planning to testify on Wed. This reeks of Trump, bc it's chaotic & Perry's heavily implicated. #SaturdayMotivation washingtonpost.com/politics/trump…
2-"Energy Secretary Rick Perry, who told Trump he would resign by the end of the year, is expected to testify Wednesday in the House impeachment inquiry, said a person working on the investigation who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss closed-door conversations.
3-"Perry, who previously refused to comply with a subpoena demanding documents pertaining to the probe, is set to appear on the same day as a slate of other high-level agency officials." ~WaPo

GREAT opinion pc from NYT Bret Stephens. It explains a few things @ the NeverTrump movement & why his base is beginning to slip.
So good that I'm going to thread it-for paywall issues. Long, but worth it. #SaturdayMotivation

2-"Even by Donald Trump’s standards, his tweet of Oct. 23 — the one that called NeverTrumpers “human scum” — plumbed new depths in the debasement of presidential speech.
3-"But what else has changed? If Robert Ballard, who discovered the wreck of the Titanic, were given the job of finding Trump’s moral bottom, he’d fail. Far more revealing in Trump’s tweet was its first sentence. “The Never Trumper Republicans, though on respirators with not

Earlier this year, right after AG Barr released his memo characterizing Mueller's report, I started filing #FOIA requests for primary source documents that were used to draft the report as well as other underlying documents amassed by Mueller's probe

1/
buzzfeednews.com/article/jasonl…
Then after Mueller's report was released, I filed dozens more #FOIA requests for additional documents. The footnotes in the report made clear that these primary source documents could further flesh out the narrative about 2016/obstruction.

2/
I also wanted to gain access to the documents that would shed light on how Mueller came to issue the unprecedented statement about the story @a_cormier_ and I published about Cohen being directed to lie to Congress by Trump. So I filed another #FOIA request.

#Buzzfeed: Your Report On #Gulen #FETO Issue In Social Media is Truly One-Sided. Lumping All The Valid Info & Opposition into one “Turkish Trolls” From #Turkey Bucket is FALSE & Can be Very Easily Debunked. Now I have to wonder who you “Represent”. - - - buzzfeed.com/ryanhatesthis/…
#Gulen #FETO Large-Sum Contributions To #HillaryClinton Campaign was/is a Confirmed Case- Documented, Confessed to, and Reported by Multiple Heavyweight Publications, including #Wikileaks. Characterizing this fact as “Conspiracy” Makes You Look Like a “Fool” & PR for #Gulen

Mueller appears to be affected by SENILE DEMENTIA
.
what do you think?
.
alzinfo.org/articles/senil…
2. we know for a FACT that #Mueller did not write EVEN ONE WORD of the "Mueller Report"

and we know that neither Andrew Weissmann did.

so, the question is:
WHO did write that sloppy piece of junk called the "Mueller Report" ?
3. The "MUELLER REPORT": a sloppy piece of junk.
Cost: $40 Million
(paid by us, taxpayers),

a sloppy piece of junk which took 2 YEARS to be produced.

Mueller has overseen the take down of quite a few criminal enterprises. In this tweet thread I name a few. He oversaw the investigation of the Lockerbie bombing, the prosecution of Manuel Noriega, the take down of the Gambino family & more. Thread below. #Mueller #TrumpRussia
1) Mueller joined the U.S. Department of Justice in 1989 to spearhead the prosecution of Panamanian dictator Manuel Noriega. #Mueller #TrumpRussia
2) Mueller took charge of the DOJ's criminal division in 1990, where he oversaw the Lockerbie bombing case & formed the agency's first cyber-dedicated unit. He is the one who created the first cyber crime investigative unit! #Mueller #TrumpRussia

💥💥💥#Mueller: #Russians leaked files to "discredit"? #Concord & #Kavanaugh connection, A thread. 👇
theguardian.com/us-news/2019/j…
1. Note the date: the confidential files with evidence were leaked in October 2018.
2. The Twitter account has been removed. It's old news. There is nothing discrediting to Mueller's investigation in the fact that the Russians stole the files. If anything, it confirms that, yes, Russians hack.
