What's Shawn Henry's core competency?

Does Henry have any formal technical education? Image
"Hash values are algorithms of the documents" ~ Shawn Henry Image
Tamene ("the contractor") contradicts Shawn Henry's testimony about Henry not having contact with him.

Henry, oddly, never mentions the 4/30/2016 call w/ Tamene, Sussmann, Chris Scott, Dacey, Reynolds and Brown, only a call w/ Sussmann and a Crowdstrike employee (Scott?) on 5/1 ImageImage
Here's some odd testimony. An FBI Agent sent Tamene a script to run on the DNC servers in April 2016. He doesn't run the script until May 2016. Tamene testifies that this is lucky because Cozy Bear and Fancy Bear would have been alerted by running it. Image
So Fancy Bear consists of the world's greatest hackers who then proceed to set off all kinds of alarm bells by going after password files on the DNC servers...

Doesn't add up ImageImage
Sussmann testified that in Summer 2016 FBI was aware of exfiltration of files from DNC servers.

Crowdstrike believed files had been removed but was unable to prove it Image
I wonder if that corresponds to the "two files" that were reported as being exfiltrated from the DNC servers.

Shame Sussmann didn't recall any further details on the substance of the exfiltration noted by the FBI

US Government (FBI, USAF, State, HHS, etc.) contracts for Crowdstrike services and software licenses

Note: listed companies other than Crowdstrike seem to be providing licenses for Crowdstrike Falcon at around $200k+ / year

July 8 2015 - July 7 2016 Crowdstrike has $150 000 contract to provide "D306: IT AND TELECOM- SYSTEMS ANALYSIS" to the FBI

Alloy, a voter data juggernaut built with a $35M seed investment led by Hoffman and Todd Park, the CTO of the US under Obama, says it intends to transfer the majority of it's IP to Civitech of Austin, TX

web.archive.org/web/2021012217…
In Dem circles, there was a concern that Alloy, cofounded by Mikey Dickerson and Haley Van Dyck, intended to own and control the party’s voter data. This distrust and suspicion may have been a key factor in Alloy’s decision to cease operations
Alloy’s cofounders, who helped to build the US Digital Service, are both veterans of Obama’s campaign tech team starting back in 2009. They reconnected during the troubled launch of Healthcare .gov, when Dickerson took an unplanned hiatus from Google to help lead the turnaround

In a witness statement read out in court, Wikileaks supporter Cassandra Fairbanks claimed she had been told by Arthur Schwartz, a Republican party supporter close to Trump, about plans for Julian Assange’s arrest months before it happened

Schwartz phoned Fairbanks “Arthur Schwartz was extremely angry,” she said. He told her that people would have been able to overlook her previous support of WikiLeaks, but they would not be so forgiving now that she was “more informed”
“He brought up my 9yo child during these comments, which I perceived as an intimidation tactic,” she said in the witness statement. Schwartz repeatedly told Fairbanks to stop advocating for WikiLeaks and Assange, saying that “a pardon isn’t going to f***ing happen”

What do Bill Clinton and Oliver North have in common, along with the Arkansas State Police and the CIA? All probably wish they had never heard of Mena, Arkansas

archive.is/7uqst
Clintion was asked about if a base in Mena was "set up by Oliver North and the CIA" in the 1980s and used to "bring in planeload after planeload of cocaine" for sale in the US, with the profits then used to buy weapons for the Contras. Was he told as Arkansas governor?
"No," Clinton replied, "they didn't tell me anything about it." The alleged events "were primarily a matter for federal jurisdiction. The state really had next to nothing to do with it."
