#CapitolRiots According to multiple law enforcement sources federal investigators have narrowed down the retail chain where the two 60-minute kitchen timers were bought as well as the end caps used to assemble the two viable pipe bombs placed outside the RNC + DNC. A forensic Image
review of the 2 viable devices obtained Thursday @CBSNews shows the kitchen timer was the sole method for detonation, no evidence of secondary or remote detonation. NOTE: If planted on January 5th, as the FBI bureau has suggested, + the 60-minute timer set, the sources said ImageImage
then the devices were designed to explode the day before the riots. CONTEXT: CBS understands there is still internal debate among investigators about when the devices planted January 5 vs. January 6 (day of riots.)

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,

#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

#Intelbriefings VIA HILL POOL @alanhe GOP Senators @SenJohnThune + @JohnCornyn that it ‘probably makes sense’ for former VP Biden to receive intel briefings now as ‘challenges play out’ Thune: Well, I think that it probably makes sense to prepare for all contingencies” + “as
these election challenges play out in court, I don't have a problem with + I think it's important from a national security standpoint, continuity + you've seen other members suggesting that. I think that makes sense." Reporter Question to Sen Cornyn: Do you think that he should
get the level of briefing of PDB, the presidential daily briefing books? Cornyn: Whether he actually gets the product itself, I think the info needs to be communicated in some way. I’m on the intelligence committee, we don’t get the PDB but we get products, intelligence products

#Election2020 Latest update from senior @CISAgov official, FBI is investigating robocalls urging voters to stay home on election day. Official said "this (is) more of a voter intimidation, voter suppression tactic" + emphasized that it happens every election. Official would not
