#SCOOP A person familiar w/case tells @CBSNews the leader of the Proud Boys - Enrique Tarrio - was arrested shortly after leaving DCA (in a vehicle) on a charge of destruction of property (misdemeanor) connected to the burning of a BLM banner/flag from DC church. He is being
booked by MPD + because it is a misdemeanor, he will most likely be released as early as this evening. Hate crime charges were considered, however the person familiar said, there was a lack of evidence to support those charges. The source said the destruction of
property charge was brought + under seal. On timing, the source said the arrest was not related to the pending demonstrations, rather directly related to Tarrio's return to DC and his alleged past conduct.

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
