Hey @CNN: everything about this piece must be changed immediately. You give the impression DOJ has reopened a probe into *Clinton*—when Barr's lackeys confirmed the FBI was *right* to close that case. *This* is a probe into how the *FBI* handled that case. cnn.com/2020/09/24/pol…
PS/ Given that the fraudulent reopening of the Clinton case in October 2016—compelled by illegal extortionate threats by Trump's agents—swung the 2016 election, how dare CNN leave the impression, via image and text, *weeks before the 2020 vote*, that Clinton is under probe again?
PS2/ Here's the first paragraph of Chapter 6 of PROOF OF CORRUPTION. Anyone can readily confirm that John Huber found *nothing* amiss at the Clinton Foundation. If Barr wants to investigate how the FBI handled that case, OK. It has *nothing* to do with Clinton. Shame on you, CNN.
PS3/ Look at the headline: "Prosecutor tapped by Barr to investigate Russia probe is now looking into Clinton Foundation." CNN and the NYT just ran a political commercial for Trump that'll amp up his voters, as now they *wrongly* think the Clinton Foundation is under probe again.
PS4/ Instead of just reporting the news—"Barr Asks Durham to Compare Clinton and Trump Probes for Signs of Bias, Despite Prior Finding By DOJ IG Horowitz That No Such Bias Existed"—@CNN and @nytimes have falsely implied there are new facts to probe in the Clinton Foundation case.
PS5/ If you doubt what a solid CNN/the NYT just did for Trump *when they should be reporting on the Trump coup plot*, imagine the political impact it would've had if Barr had announced "We're investigating Clinton!" But he wouldn't have dared. CNN/the NYT just gave that to Trump.
PS6/ I'm so angry right now. John Huber—*under Barr*—*cleared* the Clinton Foundation. Want to know the first time Huber's name appears in the @nytimes article on Barr having Durham probe *FBI* actions in that case? *The second-to-last paragraph*. This is *terrible* journalism.
PS7/ Now "Clinton Foundation" is trending, everyone *wrongly* thinks Clinton is under investigation again, it's weeks before the 2020 election, these same errors cost Democrats the 2016 election, #TrumpCoupPlot should be everywhere and isn't, and all because the *NYT screwed up*.
PS8/ Meanwhile, anyone who read Proof of Corruption is—once again—ahead of the news, as readers of the Proof series *know* John Huber looked at the Clinton Foundation for years and found *nothing*. Want to know who wants this topic back in the news? You guessed it: the Kremlin.
PS9/ The Kremlin spent years spreading conspiracy theories about the Clinton Foundation, but after Sessions and Barr lackey Huber found *nothing*, the Kremlin thought that gambit was over. But NYT, CNN, and others just did Putin a solid by falsely reporting the issue an open one.
PS10/ All this on a day when the *only* news focused on should have been that Trump is plotting a coup of our government if he loses the election. Instead, we get "trending" what is effectively a Trump-Kremlin infomercial for Trump's re-election. Again: I am *so* angry right now.

I said that this criminal trial is very much about illegal election interference, and I meant it. Per usual, the good guys are only telling about 10% of the story in order to not ruffle feathers. But America deserves the full truth about this.
Keep in mind Cohen didn't front the money to AMI for these ops. Not only did AMI outlay cash on the front end as Trump was ramping up his whirlwind introduction of Pecker to his Saudi pals, but there were times the cost was so high AMI balked. Then... suddenly they had the money.
The Saudis went almost directly from their meeting with Donald Trump Jr. in Trump Tower—where they asked the Trump family exactly how they could help illegally steal the election for Trump—to AMI, with whom they immediately developed a highly lucrative relationship (...for AMI).
(🔐) PROOF EXCLUSIVE: The Top 25 Issues With Trump’s $175M Bond—All Listed Here—Don’t Include the Two New Ones That Have Arisen Just Hours Before a Hearing That Could Determine the Future of His Empire
1/ Most people have no idea how many problems there are with this bond.
2/ Most people do not realize that, even with Trump’s criminal trial starting in earnest tomorrow, the hearing with longer-term consequences happening in New York may well be Trump’s *civil* hearing (which he will not be able to attend). And there’s a very good reason for this.
BREAKING NEWS: Kremlin Asset Paul Manafort Confirms He is Already Working on Donald Trump’s 2024 Campaign, Meaning Vladimir Putin Again Has a Direct Line to Trump As Trump’s Allies in Congress Pull Out Every Stop Conceivable to Aid the Kremlin in Its Monstrous Invasion of Europe
Many Americans don’t know that, in legal shorthand, a criminal defendant is represented by the “Delta” symbol, a triangle (∆).
(Yes—really.)
Less well known—but now, due to the Trump trial, just as relevant—is the “sleeping defendant” symbol: a faded, sideways triangle (▷).
When a criminal defendant is awake but angry at having to face consequences for his crimes, it’s OK to use the Red Delta (🔺).
If a defendant is—like Trump—livid at facing consequences *and* “sundowning” during afternoon court sessions, use the *inverted* Red Delta instead (🔻).
What about a criminal defendant who’s at once feeling “sad,” “tired,” and “boxed in” by virtue of having to deal with the same criminal procedures as the average American citizen, whom he considers himself far better than? For this we use the rare Recumbent Boxed Blue Delta (▶️).
BREAKING NEWS: Early signs suggest that Trump’s Monday night bond filing *may* have again misled the court. It says Hankey now has a security interest of $175M in “DJT Trust”—but Hankey’s Axos Bank *already* has a $100M interest in DJT Trust. Is Trump double-dipping? @KatiePhang
1/ Some wondered why Trump went to Hankey’s Knight rather than Hankey’s Axos. It certainly *could* be to swindle the court into thinking him having $175M secured with Hankey is sufficient, when it fact he likely needs at least *$275M* in that Trust to not be misleading the court.
2/ And this is early research—Axos has lent to Trump multiple times, so we’ve no idea how many times he’s used DJT Trust as liquid collateral (including any double-dipping). We *do* know Trump has Bud Light stock in the Trust, which is why he now opposes his MAGAs’ boycott of it.
Everyone knows the criminal trial on 34 felonies Trump begins on Monday is about him committing serious crimes to try to steal the 2016 presidential election, right? I mean, we’re clear on it having nothing to do with his family or propriety, only lying to American voters, right?
This is a man who committed felony after felony after felony after felony after felony after felony after felony after felony after felony—et al.—just to ensure his 2016 presidential campaign wouldn’t die a gruesome death, which it *would’ve* had he not committed those 34 crimes.
I’m not saying this because I used to be a federal criminal investigator and a criminal defense attorney. Anyone who isn’t a child fully understands that this case isn’t about sex, hush money, or business records.
It’s a case about the successful theft of the 2016 U.S. election.
