#FLYNN #DURHAM Speaking to @tonydokoupil @CBSThisMorning, former FBI agent @petestrzok said he has not been interviewed by Durham though the probe into the origins of the 2016 FBI Russia probe is well advanced + he says he expects no indictments. DOKOUPIL: You're at the center of
it (Durham) potentially, have you been interviewed? STRZOK: I have not. DOKOUPIL: Are you a target or a witness? STRZOK: I have certainly done nothing wrong. So I'm not worried about whatever he may find him..if he finds the truth. I am not worried.
DOKOUPIL: Do you expect additional indictments? STRZOK: With regard to government employees working on the case. Not at all. @CBSNews

#Durham #Flynn Former senior FBI counterintelligence official E. W. “Bill” Priestap is under scrutiny by Senate Judiciary republicans over FBI draft talking points for 2018 Senate intel committee briefing which included credibility of the Steele dossier. judiciary.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/…
WHY IT MATTERS: the 2018 FBI draft talking points say the primary sub-source “did not cite significant concerns with the way his reporting was characterized in the dossier to the extent he could identify it.” But a year earlier, January 2017, the same dossier sub-source told FBI
investigators he did not recall or did not know where some reporting came from, described other info as “rumor + speculation” CONTEXT: Priestap’s handwritten notes from January 2017 were recently made public (note initials “EP”) + central to FBI handling of @GenFlynn case which..

#FISA 2 memos from AG Barr in direct response to findings that FBI warrant applications to surveil @carterwpage were defective. Key section: Memo 2 applies to surveillance political campaigns + FBI personnel who “knowingly misrepresent facts” to FISA Court justice.gov/opa/pr/departm…
“The reforms also include oversight protocols to ensure that any use of FISA to surveil federal elected officials, candidates for federal elected office, or their advisors or staff is justified, non-partisan + based on full and complete information.  Finally, the memorandum...
requires the FBI to develop procedures to prevent US persons from becoming unwitting participants in malign influence operations by foreign powers + to review its disciplinary policies + procedures to ensure appropriate disciplinary action for those who knowingly misrepresent

#Durham Another indicator US Attorney Durham’s probe is focused on Jan 2017 intel community assessment (ICA) that found “Putin + the Russian Government aspired to help President-elect Trump’s election chances when possible by discrediting Secretary Clinton” @DNI_Ratcliffe said on
Fox Sunday, “I pledged to a bipartisan group of senators that I would look at all of the underlying intelligence surrounding the intelligence community's assessment of Russia's interference + this idea of Trump-Russia collusion” + “I'm not going to prejudice John Durham's work
in connection with that, so we've had to coordinate with his office about the timing of that but I’m optimistic that I'll be declassifying additional documents soon” + “He's looking at the same documents that I am” + “He's not sharing his findings or the work that he's doing.

narrative that simply isn't true, that somehow Russia is a greater national security threat than China. So I’m going to continue to keep the promises that I made. I'm going to continue to follow the law + continue to keep congress informed” he told @MariaBartiromo “I don’t mean
to minimize Russia. They are a serious national security threat, but day in day out, the threats that we face from China, are significantly greater + I think that's clear + anyone that sees intelligence knows that + anyone who says otherwise, is just politicizing intelligence...

SCOOP: Two sources close to the Senate probe tell @CBSNews that FBI agent Joe Pientka has been interviewed behind closed doors for "multiple hours" by investigators with Senate Judiciary + Senate Oversight/Governmental Affairs. In 2018, then-Chairman @ChuckGrassley first sought
Pientka's testimony but the request was denied until now. WHY IT MATTERS: Pientka is at the intersection of key events in the #Durham investigation. Along with agent Peter Strzok, Pientka conducted the January 2017 WH interview of @GenFlynn
that led to his dismissal. More recently, declassified records showed Pientka + others used an August 2016 "defensive-briefing" to warn candidate Trump, Flynn + @GovChristie about national security threats to gather information on their line of questioning about Russia for the..
