Huh, so you mean no coup and no spying on the Trump campaign either? nytimes.com/2019/11/27/us/… via @NYTimes
What are all those nice people on Twitter who have been kindly writing me notes about how I am going to be locked up at #gitmo going to do?
I have a special #Gitmo rendition bag, which I packed and keep ready for when QAnon announces the roundup. @petestrzok insists he gets top bunk, but I have lots of snacks and stuff. What am I gonna do with them now?

A few thoughts in advance of Monday's release of the IG report on the Russia investigation:
(1) It is important to remember the big questions and allegations that make Mr. Horowitz's investigation important: The President has publicly alleged a treasonous conspiracy at the FBI to spy on his campaign and take him down. He has alleged the bureau was engaged in a coup.
The attorney general has lent support to the notion that the FBI has lied about when and how the investigation began. The GOP leadership of the House Intelligence Committee has suggested that a FISA warrant was procured improperly. The key question therefore: is any of this true?

Two pieces published today. With @Hilary_Hurd, I wrote this analysis of Senate impeachment rules, which tries to imagine Trump’s coming trial under the rules that will govern it:

And with @qjurecic, I wrote this @TheAtlantic column on the return of Bob Mueller:

Also recorded a podcast on war powers with @timkaine, but that’ll be out tomorrow...

Please allow me to introduce you to Lisa Page (@NatSecLisa), who tells me she is done sitting around and waiting for the storm to blow over.

You should follow her.

She has a lot to say.
She gave a searing interview to @MollyJongFast, which you should read:

She is a person of remarkable substance. She is also kind and funny and tenacious. She has her mistakes.

Thread: Harold Finch Reads James Clapper’s Body Language (and it’s glorious!)

1. Intrepid independent researcher NameRedacted was suspended multiple times here on Tw@tter for what amounts to hurting the feelings of leftists and challenging their blatant lies.
2. In his last resurrection as “Harold Finch,” he was subsequently suspended and has since moved to Telegram where he runs a repository consisting of important factoids, links, and personal commentary. He can be found here:
web.telegram.org/#/im?p=@The_Li…
3. In that capacity, he posts important threads from time to time that deserve a wider audience. In this instance, he dissected a recent appearance by James Clapper (Obama’s DNI) on Anderson Cooper’s show on CNN.

The same prosecutor Trump & Giuliani pressured Zelensky to hire (Lutsenko) to go after Biden’s son engineered Konstin Klimnik’s escape to RU to avoid Mueller’s charges.

And Pompeo’s DOS knew all about it; did TeamTrump facilitate the escape?

A classified State Department assessment concluded in 2018 that Ukraine’s former Prosecutor General Yuri Lutsenko—who is at the center of the impeachment inquiry of President Trump—

🔑Yuri Lutsenko had allowed a vital potential witness for Special Counsel Robert Mueller, Konstantin Kilimnik, to escape from Ukraine to Russia, beyond the reach of the United States,

RUSSIAN COLLUSION

From my understanding:

1) The Hillary Clinton campaign hired a lawfirm called FusionGPS & a former British spy named Christopher Steele, to contact the Russian sources, to dig up dirt on Donald #Trump and his campaign...

RUSSIAN COLLUSION

From my understanding:

2) FusionGPS & Steele, wrote a series of memos (called the Steele Dossier) outlining the unverified stories they collected from Russian sources...

RUSSIAN COLLUSION

From my understanding:

3) Nellie Orr, a “former” CIA agent, working for FusionGPS, sent the Steele Dossier to her Husband Bruce Orr at the (Obama) Dept of Justice to try and get an investigation started against #Trump.

Former VP @JoeBiden’s announcement that he is running for president has raised questions about what he knew about the #Spying on the Trump campaign as vice president under the #Obama admin. theepochtimes.com/bidens-preside…
The known methods of #Spying include:
• @FBI’s #FISA warrant on #CarterPage
• Unmasking of members of the Trump campaign by #Obama officials #SusanRice & #SamanthaPower
• #NationalSecurity letters
• Foreign intelligence gathering
“[Biden] was vice president and presided over the biggest political scandal in history,” says @Jason_Meister, an advisory board member for Trump’s 2020 campaign. “High ranking Obama-Biden appointees used a phony dossier… to fraudulently obtain a warrant from the FISA court…”
