A new drop of FBI texts hsgac.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/…. Chuck Ross, one of the few reporters who consistently covers the Russiagate hoax, has a good article.
on Jul 28 afternoon, Strzok wants to talk to Lisa about "our open CI investigations relating to Trump's Russian connections". Weren't we repeatedly told that such investigations began with opening of Crossfire Hurricane? (Tho Carter Page and Manafort obviously earlier.)
on Sep 20, Nuland was having off-book dinner with Senator Corker, before whom she'd appeared on Senate Foreign Relations Committee. (Nuland had been repeated recipient of off-book Steele "reports" on Ukraine in previous 2 years.)
3/ on Sep 23, Strzok received technical information showing that supposed backchannel communications between "Trump" and Alfa Bank were a hoax. Perkins Coie were promoting this hoax in their own operation, that was carried out separate from Steele (tho overlapping occasionally).
4/ by Sep 23, 2016, Strzok was aware that Steele's operation was intended to "influence" in addition to "informing". An influence operation should have triggered safeguards within FBI. It should also have triggered FARA.
5/ "Iris" here is probably Iris Lan of DOJ
6/ this text on Sep 30 is prob garbled understanding of document that Steele had given to Winer on or about Sep 23, then Winer presumably gave to Nuland
7/ these texts on Oct 17 are from FBI agent monitoring spying by Halper (Horowitz "Source 2") on Page, discussed in Horowitz Report in detail.
8/ here's an important new timeline point. On Dec 16, McCabe (DD) via Strzok instructed Moffa to include Steele material (previously recognized by Strzok as intended to "influence") in the ICA ordered up by Obama
9/ on Dec 19, Strzok sent REDACTED a text to "talk to [] about using his sh*t in the report POTUS has asked for." The report requested by Obama was the ICA which endorsed Steele dossier, news of which was immediately leaked, thus sabotaging incoming Trump admin.
10/ new detail on Papadop. Note: although hearsay about Papadop (a fantasist and liar) began CH, FBI hadn't made any effort to just ask him what he meant. (Strzok's belief that Papadop had foreknowledge of DNC hack - an axiom of operation - was not only false, but impossible)
11/ on Jan 3, Strzok and REDACTED discussing re-organization of Crossfire. Recall that Flynn file was about to closed on Jan 4 morning. In passing, [] worried that Flynn might "blab himself into a legit 65". As opposed to whatever was currently going on.
12/ Maybe someone familiar with FBI forms and nomenclature can explain what a "65" is and the difference between a "legit 65" and an illegitimate 65.
13/ the organizational issues that Strzok and [] were fretting about almost certainly pertain to Jan 2017 decentralization reorganization of Crossfire Hurricane, returning Carter Page to Boone, while leaving Papadop and Flynn under Strzok.
14/ two new texts on Jan 4, 2017. "they're trying to decide if the contact between CR and Kislyak nerits a [] to DOJ based on biolating 953" 953 is Logan Act law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18…
15/ new data (I think). Strzok briefed Comey on Jan 5 at 9 am. This is leading up to Jan 5 brief to Obama and Jan 6 brief to Trump on ICA that contained endorsement of Steele dossier, news of which immediately leaked.)
16/ very late on evening prior to Trump briefing, Strzok wanted to pin down Steele timeline, which Comey had expressed interest in.
17/ on Jan 6, Strzok coordinating with Charles McGonigal, a Section Chief whose name may well occur under redactions in other documents
18/ on Jan 9 (eve of ICA leak being revealed), McCain (prob David Kramer) gave Steele dossier to Carl Bernstein. Kramer at time was texting madly back and forth with Steele. Page unimpressed and phlegmatically said "let Carl run it down then".
19/ nothing new on Jan 10 Leak Day. Jan 11 texts include John Brown, an FBI official (who has subsequently been promoted a couple of times) who has not previously attested in CH.
20/ this is new. A text from Chicago (CG) agent, prob Curtis Heide, relayed. Appears that FBI had audio surveillance on Papadopoulos (Typhoon) as they refer to "exact audio" of call from VP, Fox News to Papadopoulos. I wonder what authority they obtained.
21/ some important texts on setup of Jan 27 Papadop interview. Of which (shamefully) the 302 remains concealed. Just another unkept Trump declassification promise. On eve of interview, McCabe authorizes Pap interview. Stzok wants to find out about supposed Russian "offer".
22/ I'm commenting in real time as I go through these texts. Downer never used the word "offer" in his public interviews. Obviously no such offer was made to Papadop. I've long wondered whether word was extrapolation by FBI or Downer or Papadop raving to Erika. What do texts say?

40/ it also looks like McCabe was separately leaking (false information) to WaPo about Flynn. He resigned almost immediately after this sabotage. Image
41/ during this resistance period, Strzok was breaking bad. As he became increasingly obsessed, one of his friends sagely observed "it looks like entire future credibility of the FBI is sitting on your shoulders". It did indeed. Unfortunately, Strzok was wrong about everything Image
42/ a dig here: on Feb 23, Brian Boetig, the FBI Legat from London who filed initial report on Downer's conversation with DCM Dibble about Papadopoulos leading to CH, checked in. Wonder what it was about. Image

23/ as Papadop interview approaches, Strzok and Boone (the two ADs) chat. Strzok expects Papadop to name Carter Page or Manafort as secret conduit to Russia. I don't view Strzok as malevolent, but as someone living in a totally paranoid fantasy, whose judgement was appalling.
24/ 😂🔥 this is rich. FBI was ("FYSA") listening to Papadop and his mother in the Papadopoulos home in real time. His mother told him not to go to FBI office. Strzok snickered: "That's what you get for not listening to mom...;)"
25/ texts presumably related to Papadop had already been obtained

David Blake's recent book Loaded for Guccifer contains lengthy discussion of how NATO lobbied to expand definition of "war" to include ordinary hacking and surveillance - which are VERY hard to attribute.
2/ an important downside of expanded definition is that it creates much expanded incentive for false flag provocations. Blake argues that many, if not all, of the outrageously noisy and too-obvious cyber incidents since 2016 are false flags by parties who benefit from tension
3/ an important example of how a policy can create an incentive for false flags is Obama's famous "red line" on chemical attacks in Syria. Since Obama's policy was announced, one of major "business lines" of Al Qaeda and allied Syrian jihadis has been staged chemical incidents

the recent HGSAC documents (DOJ subset) hsgac.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/… contained the following seemingly uninformative email, which turns out to shed interesting new light on both Horowitz, Bruce Ohr and the Alfa Bank hoax.
2/ a routine search of names in the email showed that Maxwell Marker was the TOC-East Section Chief identified in Horowitz Report as one of Bruce Ohr's two original contacts. So let's re-examine Horowitz with new info in mind.
3/ Simpson contacted DOJ #3 Ohr on Aug 22, 2016 and immediately got access. Simpson purported to identify 3 possible intermediaries in the collusion hoax originated by Steele operation. Ohr talked to Gaeta, but, as usual, neither "recalled" anything. MMarker mentioned.

New York City publishes "syndromic surveillance" data recording all Emergency Department visits which is up-to-date (to within ~10 days). Data is surprising given recent surge is reported COVID cases. a816-health.nyc.gov/hdi/epiquery/v…
Here's their plot of ED visits for respiratory diseases by week. End values are, annoyingly, artifacts of incomplete reporting. I re-plotted data without annoying artifact.
During spring COVID epidemic, NYC Emergency departments were (as reported in real time) overwhelmed. Reported new cases in NY state now higher than in spring, COVID hospitalizations reaching similar levels but NYC respiratory ED visits ~50% LOWER than an ordinary year. Strange.

David Blake argues that nascent psy-op operation is a false flag. He is author of recent, very interesting book Loaed for Guccifer (amazon.com/dp/B08MSZHMGP?…) which argues that Russiagate hoax was an even more broad-reaching false flag than thus far understood.
2/ no sooner does David Blake predict false flag operation than Ellen Nakashima, outlet for original Crowdstrike article on DNC hack on Jun 15, 2016, is stenographer for intel community pearl clutching
3/ followed almost immediately by article by Raphael Satter, another telegraph operator for the intel community
