#Durham #Flynn As former FBI agent @petestrzok rolls out his book “Compromised” + takes ownership for steering FBI Russia probe, worth revisiting page iii IG Horowitz report. It found that it was his supervisor, Bill Priestap, NOT Strzok “who ultimately made the decision to open
the investigation” July 31, 2016. WHY IT MATTERS: FBI decision to open on a political campaign + who signed off became very important after controversial Strzok/Page texts surfaced CONTEXT: Operatives who work this national security space tell me it’s “counterintelligence 101”
to avoid professional + personal conduct/communications
that leave you open to be compromised + blackmail @CBSNews

#Election2020 Dig deeper into this DHS Bulletin + you’ll see the Russian effort to undermine confidence in the democratic process began BEFORE pandemic shutdown, citing 2018 + 2016 effort “encouraging voters to stay at home or vote for 3rd-party candidates” to impact outcome.
BIG PICTURE: DHS found Russia is “likely amplifying criticisms of vote-by-mail” to “undermine public trust” + “sow distrust in democratic institutions + election outcomes” FINE PRINT: Assessment is made with “ high confidence” which is intel speak for near certainty.
BOTTOM LINE: “Foreign Influence” operations - designed to damage US institutions, undermine confidence in the democratic process - are a constant for the Russians. They predate this election cycle + will go beyond 2020. @CBSNews

#Durham With agent Strzok book “Compromised” scheduled for release next week, GET focused timeline summer 2016. On page 349, IG Horowitz said Strzok’s texts described FBI decision to open on Trump campaign July 31, 2016 as “feels momentous” + “this MATTERS.” DIG DEEPER because..
page 77 says, according to McCabe’s notes, “in late July (2016)...another US government agency had briefed President Obama on intelligence that agency had suggesting that a RIS (Russian Intelligence Service) was engaged in covert actions to influence...election in favor of Trump”
CONTEXT: If Crossfire Hurricane officially opened July 31, 2016, who was the other “government agency” + how significant was its brief to the WH? Does “late July” in fact mean BEFORE the FBI Russia probe opened @CBSNews

#FISA From FBI Director Wray, “ Since the Inspector General’s Crossfire Hurricane report was issued last December, I have made clear that it describes conduct that was unacceptable and unrepresentative of the FBI as an organization” + “That’s why I
immediately ordered more than 40 corrective actions, including foundational FISA reforms, many of which went beyond those recommended by the Inspector General. The FBI has been working diligently to implement these corrective actions” separately reporters were told
The FBI is in the process of seeking an outside consultant to advise on improvements to the FISA audit process + recent IG reviews of FISA applications have proven that the information the FBI includes is overwhelmingly accurate. @CBSNews
