@camorris @TheRickWilson Not sure when the crackdown will happen on all the illegal social-media operations, but it's even more trackable - with court-admissible evidence - than it seems.

And yes, the @FBI has that information...

On the other hand, "It's not hearsay if they're a co-conspirator."
@camorris @TheRickWilson @FBI And what better way to prove #RICO operations than documented communications, exchanges of funds, etc?

Could there be a downside of using existing criminal networks to further espionage operations?

Narcotics are an ideal RICO conspiracy, as it happens.

@ericgarland There’s a reason “the evidence will never stop.”

Actually, several.

Attempts to obstruct or obscure critical elements will only destroy those who intervene.

There’s a reason critical data has been coming out in waves.

No one knows what’s coming next. So no one can leak it.
@ericgarland The offshore trillions, for example, are being utterly annihilated now.

Or more accurately, have been in the process of doing so, all unseen, for two months, and will continue for two more months.

And they will take down anyone bound to them in the process.
@ericgarland But no one needed to know the means or the plan or the hour, save those executing these final details.

Much like knowing about how to track global malware, online-influence networks, deep-cover operatives, drugs, WMDs, diamonds, trafficked humans, counterfeit cash...

@ericgarland @willsdadbill A key point about laundered money:

It. Keeps. Moving.

So they don't just put a hundred billion under the dragon Smaug under the Lonely Mountain.

It gets reinvested.

Where did it come from?

How did it move?

Where did it end up?

Where is it now?

What more did it expose?
@ericgarland @willsdadbill Any major unravelling is apt to reveal many other operations which can not bear further scrutiny.

But because the money keeps moving, it's not *just* a hundred billion in, say, real estate in Miami, or bank accounts in the Caymans.

What mortgages did those properties provide?
@ericgarland @willsdadbill What loans were secured by that collateral?

What businesses are based in those properties?

What businesses are *ostensibly* based in those properties?

What rents are being paid?

What tenants are being paid off?

What tenants are being extorted?

@ericgarland @thespybrief The *problem,* for so many people trying to obscure so much, is putting everyone on video.

We can tell who you are, even under your mask or bandanna.

It's been useful *not* to point out we could *already* do that, and radical enhancement of facial recognition makes it easier.
@ericgarland @thespybrief So if you're rolling out easily identified agents provocateurs/organized-crime minions/anarchists/white supremacists/what have you...

& we can *automate* identifying them, even through their partial masks...

You're giving us a ton of assets to arrest & drop search warrants on.
@ericgarland @thespybrief Which is yet *another* element decimating their networks.

What's *worse* about this gambit, compared to your average Kushner-conspiring-on-WhatsApp-with-foreign-leaders-level operation?

Barr can't do anything about state & local prosecutions & pulling people in from all over...
