???: DNI Ratcliffe has declassified a Russian intelligence assessment — which Ratcliffe says could be false or exaggerated — to suggest Clinton hatched a plan to pin Russian hacking onto Trump.

judiciary.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/… Image
I'm still wrapping my head around the idea that DNI just publicly released what it acknowledges in untested 2016 Russian intelligence chatter to raise derogatory questions about Hillary Clinton — which of course was Russia's goal when it was doing the chattering.
The substance aside: It's more evidence that Durham is not preparing to bring charges related to any of this. Anything is possible, but it would be extraordinary for Durham to allow evidence like this to go onto the public record if he was preparing related indictments.
NEWS from @AndrewDesiderio: Republicans and Democrats on the Senate Intel Committee had previously rejected the information just declassified by DNI Ratcliffe, characterizing it as Russian disinformation.

@AndrewDesiderio When you have to issue a statement clarifying that you didn't just publicly disseminate Russian disinformation because your first statement made it sound like you did just publicly disseminate Russian disinformation >>> Image

NEW: I just reviewed 50 *more* minutes of unaired footage documenting Nancy Pelosi’s actions on Jan. 6-7 — and these are the most revealing yet.

They include her entire 10 minute evacuation during the violence and her senior staff meeting the next day.

1) An exhausted Pelosi, after successfully certifying Biden’s victory, praised Mike Pence before saying Trump had to “pay a price” for what he did to the Capitol and country. politico.com/news/2024/08/2…
Image
2) During her evacuation, Pelosi repeatedly expressed anger at being forced to leave the floor, describing delay as a win for the rioters. And venting about assurances from security officials to at the Capitol was prepared for the worst. politico.com/news/2024/08/2…

BREAKING: A grand jury has returned a superseding indictment against Donald Trump in Washington, D.C. retaining the same four core charges against him for trying to subvert the election. Image
Read the superseding indictment here: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…
MORE: The biggest change appears to be that Jeff Clark, coconspirator 4, and the details about Trump's effort to commandeer DOJ in support of his effort, have been removed: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…

JUST IN: It appears that Loraine Pellegrino — one of 11 Arizona Republicans who acted as false electors for Trump — has pleaded guilty to a reduced state charge, per new filings on the docket.
Image
Image
I believe she would be the first false elector in any state to accept criminal responsibility for their involvement in the scheme. Several in Georgia accepted immunity and charges in MI/NV/GA have not been resolved.
NEWS: One of Donald Trump’s fake electors in Arizona has become the first to plead guilty for her role in the scheme. She received a misdemeanor sentence of 3 years probation and community service as part of the deal.

NEWS: Jeff Clark should be suspended from the practice of law for two years, a DC bar hearing committee recommended Thursday — a steep sanction but short of the disbarment that investigators sought.

NEW: Jeff Clark's "recklessness risked disabling the Justice Department, throwing the Presidential election into chaos, and even potentially causing riots in the streets," a D.C. bar panel ruled Thursday, recommending the 2-year suspension of his license." politico.com/news/2024/08/0…
Image
The panel found that Clark repeatedly ignored the warnings from virtually every senior DOJ and WH official of the catastrophic consequences his letter to GA would have on the country — and that he skipped opportunities for due diligence offered by bosses. politico.com/news/2024/08/0…
