1/ BEANS: Some initial notes from today’s IG report. “We concluded that the quantum of information articulated by the FBI to open investigations on Papadopoulos, Page, Flynn, & Manafort was sufficient to satisfy the low threshold established by the department and the FBI”
2/ They also concluded there was no bias affecting the decision making in Crossfire Hurricane.
3/ They also concluded there was no political bias or improper motivation influencing the FBI’s decision to seek FISA authority on Carter Page, though they did note 17 issues that they make recommendations to correct in the future
4/ Finally, they found no instances of placing “spies” within the trump campaign or any “spies” to report on or entrap the trump campaign.

Mueller, She Wrote Podcast
@MuellerSheWrote
Time for some impeachment beans: 1/ McConnell has wanted a fast impeachment. The GOP strategy in the hearing was to complain about rushing it to divide Dems. McConnell spoke to 45 “you don’t want them to wait for your tax returns”. Trump now calling for a fast impeachment.
2/ I would like to wait until we have the strongest possible case. Remember, trump appointed his tax guy before he appointed Barr, signaling he’s more worried about his taxes than he was about Mueller b/c Rosenstein effectively narrowed Mueller’s scope NOT to include finances.
3/ In all the court cases, Dems have argued that the finances AND mueller grand jury materials fall under the umbrella of impeachment and that Pelosi agreed. If you’re mad about not impeaching this month, it’s because Trump wants you to be. That was their goal with the hearing.

BREAKING: The DoJ has no plans to indict McCabe and will not block the release of documents related to the case. wsj.com/articles/justi…
KEEP IN MIND: the DoJ may have no *immediate* plans to indict McCabe. I don’t trust Barr any further than I could throw him.
If you can’t get through the paywall: the author here is assuming the DoJ is no longer investigating because it’s reason for not releasing documents was because of the open investigation. A DoJ lawyer will answer questions tomorrow in court. DONT PUT ANYTHING PAST BARR

"Trump is THE CENTRAL PLAYER in this scheme."

DEMs 9 am announcement: two articles of impeachment
📌abuse of power
📌obstruction of Congress

The IG report just blew up Trump’s lies.

Crossfire Hurricane opened with sufficient lawful predication.

RU FM Lavrov meets Trump tomorrow—Zelensky still awaiting an invite.

In order to increase pressure on Ukraine to announce the politically motivated inv’nsTrump wanted, he withheld the coveted Oval Office meeting & $391 M of essential military aid from Ukraine
🍑Eve3🍑

Trump used the power and influence of his office to pressure & induce Zelensky to interfere in the 2020 presidential elex for his personal & political benefit

Trump’s conduct sought to undermine our free & fair elections & poses an imminent threat to our NatSec.

The Setup of General Michael Flynn - Thread - The Predicate that wasn't really a Predicate
"As with the opening of Crossfire Hurricane, we concluded that the quantum of information articulated by the FBI to open these individual investigations was sufficient to satisfy the LOW threshold established by department and FBI predication policy" - IG
So what was the predicate for opening an investigation into Gen. Flynn in Aug 2016. According to the IG the reason is he had ties to Russian affiliated entities and the RT dinner. Yes, I'm being serious

BREAKING: Judicial Watch President @TomFitton made the following statement regarding today’s DOJ’s Office of the IG report (1/3). jwatch.us/WyXhuq
.@TomFitton: "Today’s IG report on the Russiagate FISA abuse provides abundant evidence that the FBI and DOJ massively violated the law in order to obtain the Carter Page spy warrants targeting President @realDonaldTrump," (2/3).

jwatch.us/WyXhuq
.@TomFitton: "As IG reports are both exposés and cover-ups at the same time, it is no surprise that the IG punted on implicating senior officials directly in the spy scandal," (3/3).

1) IG Report Thread:

justice.gov/storage/120919…
2) We did not find information in FBI or Department ECs, emails, or other documents, or through witness testimony, indicating that any information other than the information was relied upon to predicate the opening of the Crossfire Hurricane investigation.
3) FFG = Foreign Friendly Government

Indicates that Nunes was correct. There was no official foreign intelligence used in the Electronic Communication to open the FBI Investigation.

The Electronic Communication was based on FFG information. Cases were opened into @GeorgePapa19, @GenFlynn, @PaulManafort, and @carterwpage in August 2016. #IGReport
Steele's "Primary Sub-source said the corroboration
was "zero."". The Trusted Compatriot still could not corroborate any of his and Steele's election reporting by May 2017. GTFOH
