Recommend that you treat it as an audio, not a video. My camera angle is offcenter and I move around too much. But if you listen to it like radio program, it's better.
we discuss the recent news that FBI and intel community concealed information about 2009-11 suspicions of Danchenko, even preparation of FISA application, in ICA, thereby enabling inclusion of Steele dossier info into ICA, thus fomenting resistance.
2/ intel agencies told senior Obama admin and incoming Trump admin that Danchenko and others were "layered network of identified and unidentified sources, some of which have been corroborated in the past". We now know that FBI had identified Danchenko as PSS by December, when 
3/ ICA was still being written and finalized. As soon as they searched Danchenko's name, they would have encountered open counterintel case against him and even planned FISA application and had obligation to disclose in capital red letters.
4/ Concealing this information in ICA (and soon afterwards in Carter Page renewal) was a fraud.
In my opinion, Danchenko wasnt and isnt a Russian spy and present accusations of "Russian disinformation" from Lindsay Graham and his ilk are nothing more than Look, squirrel!

5/ than Look, squirrel! distractions to evade scrutiny of fabrications by UK (and perhaps) US intel community which gave the Steele dossier its importance.
6/ the intel community redactors of the Horowitz Report (and other documents) exacerbated the original fraud by blacking out Horowitz' explosive disclosure, both in the original report and even in the less redacted footnotes in the spring.
7/ Horowitz' record on this is not ideal either. This fraud ought to have been one of the top two items in the Horowitz list of errors and frauds. Yet Horowitz didn't include it in his summary, only in a doubly redacted footnote.
8/ I hope that the discussion of this incident is focused on intel community concealment of this information, rather than more tired tropes about how the innocent and too-trusting FBI counterintel were duped.
