“The 2017 and 2019 stories were written by veteran reporters Rosalind S. Helderman and Tom Hamburger. They declined to comment.”

Fire them—maybe they’ll comment.
According to Simpson’s book, he hightailed it to Philly in July 2016 to help pivot media attention away from DNC email scandal to Russia collusion.

One of the first reporters he met with? @thamburger
Worked like a charm! “Fiona Hill, a former Russia expert on the National Intelligence Council, said putting the emails out on WikiLeaks for the world to see is consistent with her view of the modus operandi of Putin and Russian intelligence.” washingtonpost.com/politics/clint…
Looks like @thamburger was Simpson and Steele scribe pre-Trump dossier. Recall Steele hired Simpson FIRST to dig up dirt on Paul Manafort for Steele’s client—Oleg Deripaska:

More from @thamburger and @PostRoz in June 2016:

“The Post reported that hackers tied to the Russian government had gained access to the Democratic National Committee’s opposition research file on Trump.”

Let’s take a moment and recall how hard David French tried to smear Nunes and validate the dossier and mainstream “erroneous” reporting on dossier:
French is the most dishonest and unrepentant fraud in the NeverTrump universe and that’s saying a lot nationalreview.com/2017/03/devin-…
Haven’t checked but I’m sure French is completely ignoring Durham indictments and media’s laughable mea culpa. He’s very Christian doncha know

If the media didn’t know before February 2018 (it did) they all knew after the release of Nunes memo. Let’s take a brief trip down memory lane to revisit how hard the now “erroneous” news organizations tried to discredit Nunes memo and smear Nunes himself: nytimes.com/2018/02/03/opi…

Only the most heartless person—or a Biden prosecutor or DC District court judge—could read this and feel no mercy.

Boyd Camper committed no violent crime on January 6. The prosecution is only part of his life-destroying ordeal:
This 78-year-old wretch, Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly, a Clinton appointee, sentenced him to 2 months in prison:
Camper asked to serve time on weekends so he could care for his son. Hag said no:

As expected, Judge Chutkan's ruling denying Trump's injunction to stop J6 committee from accessing privileged information is a doozy.

Here, she imagines new laws Democrats could pass after committee work is concluded. For those still denying this is a domestic war on terror....
"The court has no difficulty discerning multiple subjects on which legislation could be had from the Select Committee’s requests. Some examples include enacting or amending criminal laws to deter and punish violent conduct targeted at the institutions of democracy...
enacting measures for future executive enforcement of Section 3 of the Fourteenth Amendment against any Member of Congress or Officer of the United States who engaged in 'insurrection or rebellion,' or gave 'aid or comfort to the enemies thereof,'--imposing structural reforms...

The torture of those who protested Biden’s election continues. Biden’s DOJ wants Chansley in prison for years basically on trespassing charges. No violent offense, no weapons, no assault. He pleaded guilty to obstruction of an official proceeding: politico.com/news/2021/11/1…
Chansley has been behind bars, often in solitary, since January. Despite mental health issues, no criminal record, and no violent charges, Judge Lamberth repeatedly refused to release him. My column here:
amgreatness.com/2021/09/05/jac…
DOJ flat-out lies in sentencing memo. Officer Robishaw, as I’ve reported, talked to Chansley and a few other protesters, telling them they had to protest peacefully

I get asked this a lot. I’m not an attorney so I’ll try to answer based on all the hearings I’ve covered.

Despite the fact there are ~660 Jan 6 defendants, most charged individually, DC District Court (and Circuit for that matter) handling every case as one huge prosecution. 1/
DOJ keeps delaying discovery, evidence-sharing platforms bc video/ documentary trove is so massive. DOJ now telling defendants most discovery won’t be accessible until January 2022.

I have no idea how this is legal or constitutional.

Take Ryan Samsel for example 2/
Arrested 1/30. Defense still awaiting all discovery from DOJ. Ans judges keep going along with DOJs excuses why all evidence, including exculpatory, isn’t fully available.

As one judge said, DOJ charged first, gathered evidence later. “That’s not how this works.”

Ya, it does 3/
