#SpecialCounselDurham #Flashback On this day, December 28, 2016 IG Horowitz found then @FBI Deputy Director McCabe wrote to senior intel official arguing Steele dossier should be included in the "main body" of the Intelligence Community Assessment or ICA -- the most consequential
intelligence product about Russian 2016 election interference. McCabe wrote, "We oppose CIA's current plan to include it (Steele dossier) as an appendix; there are a number of reasons why I feel strongly that it needs to appear in some fashion in the main body of the reporting."
NOTE: IG Horowitz found "McCabe's view did not prevail" though he argued 3 points, "President Obama had requested 'everything'" + Steele reporting not vetted but "consistent with information from other sources" (circular reporting) + it had been "widely circulated throughout
government + media circles" + “was likely to leak.” WHY IT STILL MATTERS: Dec 2017 Steele dossier unverified + by Jan 2017 primary source discredited the claims + used again for FISA @carterwpage ICA is significant area interest to Durham probe + @SenRonJohnson @ChuckGrassley

Statement from Brett Eagleson, who lost his father Bruce Eagleson on 9/11, their story profiled @CBSMornings @CBSEveningNews in response to the Biden Administration’s initial release of info related to 9/11 terrorist attacks which includes 2016 FBI Operation Encore Final Review.
“It is particularly meaningful that President Biden and his administration today began to fulfill his promise to the 9/11 community, as my family and thousands of others memorialized those who were lost and injured 20 years ago. Today marks the moment when the Saudis cannot rely
on the U.S. government from hiding the truth about 9/11. The release of the 2016 FBI Operation Encore Final Review accelerates our pursuit of truth and justice against the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia for the worst terrorist attack to occur on U.S. soil. We look forward to more

NEW #GTMO: Defense attorney for 9/11 defendant tells reporters that discovery has revealed for the FIRST time a link between the still secret FBI 9/11 probe "Operation Encore" + the CIA Secret Prisons. “Operation Encore" investigated the 2 hijackers who lived in San Diego before
9/11 + their US-based support network. James Connell, who represents Ammar al-Baluchi, said as early as 2002 + then again in 2006, FBI agents linked to the San Diego probes sent questions and/or provided photographs to the CIA secret prisons for the interrogation of at least 3
9/11 suspects.  Connell said the photographs were of suspected members of the US-based support cell.   

Connell continued,  "Now what we know is that in the 2006 investigation into a possible American support cell that the FBI was reaching out to the CIA to get information from

#Nassar Attributable to @FBI
“As the Inspector General made clear in today’s report, this should not have happened.  The FBI will never lose sight of the harm that Nassar’s abuse caused.  The actions and inactions of certain FBI employees described in the Report are inexcusable
and a discredit to this organization. The FBI has taken affirmative steps to ensure and has confirmed that those responsible for the misconduct and breach of trust no longer work FBI matters.  Prior to today, the FBI initiated improvements to make sure that serious allegations,
such as these, are promptly shared with our law enforcement partners and within the FBI.  As a continuation of these efforts, the FBI is fully committed to implementing all of the recommendations made by the Inspector General.  We will take all necessary steps to ensure that the

Statement from @MarkSZaidEsq @CBSNews “This so-called internal review DHS OGC conducted was a set-up from the beginning in order for Chad Wolf to cover his own failures and retaliate against Mr. Murphy, who is the highest ranking lawful whistleblower in decades. Mr. Murphy's
performance appraisals for his entire tenure at DHS are virtually stellar with the highest marks possible, including financial performance bonuses. Acting Deputy Secretary Cuccinelli himself signed off on Mr. Murphy's most recent favorably performance appraisal that contradicts
this alleged internal review” +
"Our understanding is DHS OGC interviewed a very select and intentionally targeted number of people, including those who were disciplined by Mr. Murphy. We provided DHS with nearly two dozen names of senior level I&A employees who volunteered to

In other news....While @DHSgov IG investigation is ongoing, @CBSNews has learned a five-month review by DHS career attorneys, interviewing +80 witnesses, has concluded + recommended against the return of Brian Murphy to head I&A (Intelligence & Analysis) for reasons that go
beyond controversy over intelligence products including journalists #Portland. A source familiar with internal review confirms former Acting Secretary Wolf has left the decision to incoming administration. January 11, 2021 Memorandum from Wolf to Alejandro Mayorkas reads in part,
“...the OGC review strongly encouraged DHS leadership to refrain from allowing Mr. Murphy to return to I&A. This recommendation was based not only on the concerning intelligence activities that occurred in the 3 months that Mr. Murphy served as Acting Under Secretary, but also on

#COVID19Vaccine @USMarshalsHQ will provide security for vaccines "Deputy Marshals are working hand-in-hand with Operation Warp Speed personnel to provide security for COVID-19 vaccines from the facilities where they are manufactured to distribution sites" FULL Statement @CBSNews
“In addition to our core missions of apprehending fugitives, transporting and housing prisoners, protecting the judicial process, and running the Federal Witness Security Program, the U.S. Marshals Service is also responsible for the Strategic National Stockpile Security
Operations Program. Enhanced after 9/11 , the national stockpile fills an important need to have pharmaceuticals and other medical materials available for quick dissemination to the American people in times of national need, such as a man-made or natural disaster, or a pandemic.
