The British people need to know about any hidden influence BEFORE they go to the polls. He must #ReleaseTheRussiaReport now.

On September 23, 2018, an airstrike on a house in an Afghan village killed 11 children from the same family. The US military denied carrying it out. That denial was false. Here’s how we know...
Masih Mubarez lost his wife, all seven of his children and four young relatives. Determined to find out who had killed his family, he took photos of their destroyed home and weapon fragments at the scene which he passed to our Afghan reporter
From the image metadata, we got the coordinates of Masih’s home in the village of Mullah Hafiz. Satellite images confirmed the house had been attacked, with the damage consistent with an airstrike. The left image shows where the bodies were found, the right shows the damage

It is "inexplicable and shameful" that the UK govt has not yet published a report on alleged Russian interference in British politics, Hillary Clinton has told the BBC. The report has formal security clearance, but it will not be released until after the 12 December election...

Breaking - Dominic Cummings, the prime minister’s most senior adviser, is facing questions over his past activities in Russia after a whistleblower came forward to raise “serious concerns” about the 3 years Cummings spent there after graduating from Oxford. See the Sunday Times
A whistleblower has contacted Labour frontbench with concerns over the relationships that Cummings May have developed in “politics, intelligence and security” when he worked in Russia between 1994 and 1997.
Shadow foreign secretary Emily Thornberry has written to Mark Sedwill, the cabinet secretary, & the heads of MI5 & MI6 asking what level of security vetting was handed to Cummings when he joined Boris Johnson in Downing St. See tomorrow’s Sunday Times exclusive with @cazjwheeler

In light of the news Number 10 is sitting on the explosive findings in a report into euref Russian Interference in British politics & close relationships with certain actors & funding..

Re_upping this thread from a year ago.
Parliament & British citizens have waited 2 years for this report. It is vital to how we proceed as a country. To safeguard not only UK.
#Brexit is but the 1st of many dominoes ready to fall on a catastrophic global scale. It's existential. It's THAT important.
#publish or #leak
I think it's fair to say, British central intelligence apparatus, continued to investigate.
Meaning scope & content could be more recent & precient, likely to extend directly to high profile figures of the current executive we than originally expected.

“Journalism is not a crime”

So why is @Wikileaks’ Julian Assange jailed in a maximum security prison, in which people such as Abu Qatada have been imprisoned in? 🙃

#AttorneyGeneral Barr is working to review the techniques used to investigate Trump’s 2016 campaign.

Here are 10 key questions that remain to be answered in the scandal that has become known as #Spygate (Thread 👇):

Commentary by @JasperFakkert theepochtimes.com/spygate-origin…
1. What was the role that @CIA and John Brennan’s ‘Interagency Task Force’ played?

Former CIA Director Brennan admitted that he passed intelligence received from the #UK on the Trump campaign to the @FBI with the intention of having them investigate it:
“It served as the basis…
… for the FBI investigation to determine whether such collusion [or] cooperation occurred.”

Notably, Brennan met with then-head of the #UK #Spy agency @GCHQ, Robert Hannigan, in #Washington in 2016. The meeting was unusual, since Hannigan’s US equivalent…

Equador: Swedish national #OlaBini arrested for connections to #wikileaks.

Johannes Wahlström:

#JulianAssange's "human rights are violated on a daily basis"

"#JulianAssange is imprisoned for #journalism."

#MikePompeo on lying:

"When I was a cadet, what was the cadet motto at West Point? 'You will not lie, cheat or steal, or tolerate those who do'? I was the CIA Director. We lied, we cheated, we stole. It was like - we had entire training courses!"
