Which should lead any reasonable observer to realize that Durham has permission to use the sequestered evidence from the @carterwpage FISA.
FISC Judge Boasberg authorized DOJ to use the evidence to prosecute people involved in the case. #ButNothingsHappening
Which is a big tell from Durham that his case against Hillary's agents who were attempting to frame Trump for Collusion. Includes a broader scope because the same people involved were also framing US intel agents for Russian Collusion. s3.documentcloud.org/documents/7208…
The FISC ruling specifically addressed the need of then USA Durham to use the evidence in FBI files & systems of spying on Carter Page to prosecute those who spied on Carter Page.
Boasberg ruled that to get specific unminimized information, Durham would need to demonstrate a particular need to use & disclose the unminimized information.
The need that Emptywheel sees in the Danchenko case.
If he can't prove his case without it, Durham has met the standard!
Boasberg's ruling specifically authorized necessary usage to invetigate or prosecute crimes related to the Page or Crossfire Hurricane investigations, provided they demonstrate a particular need to disclose the evidence.
DOJ must notify the Judge only after authorizing it.
Emptywheel thinks giving Danchenko's defense an excuse to demand all this information for discovery is a mistake by Durham.
Why would anyone think that Durham isn't prosecuting Danchenko to provide him the need to disclose information of illegal spying that otherwise coundn't?
Durham didn't accidentally give Danchenko the chance to demand disclosure of classified evidence.
It is a way to force the disclosure of classified evidence that will expose the crimes of the larger conspiracy that is currntly covered by classification.
Danchenko won't be bluffed into pleading guilty as the sentences are fairly light for lying to the FBI.
'Forcing' DOJ to get agencies to declassify this information for his defense. Once declassified it can then be used in other cases & Durham's report to AG Garland.
Even more important, Judge Trenga who is trying the Danchenko case has spent the last 3 years trying to get DOJ to disclose more classified information in the FARA case against LTG. Flynn's former partner.
So he's primed to make DOJ over declassify info on the Russia Hoax.
Even better, the discovery will force Brady disclosure on Durham to find all the missing documents & hidden information from the Mueller prosecutions involving @GeorgePapa19@SergeiMillian Kilimnik & Oleg Deripaska.
Everyone in the Russia Hoax was working for Deripaska!
I did a thread on this when emptywheel realized Durham would have to disclose information about Deripaska's involvement.
Durham has now 'forced himself' to declassify all of this information about Deripaska's role in Russiagate...
It wasn't an accident!
How long before people realize that Trump sets up cases to get precedents set in court?
Once the exact parameters & processes for using the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 are confirmed deporting Tren de Aragua, how long does Trump wait to use it on China's 1000 Talents spy program?
It would be very easy to prove in court by the precedents set at this time that the 1000 Talents program is a predatory incursion against the United States by the Chinese government.
Let's look at how President Trump tricked Putin into a far greater Russian defeat in Ukraine!
Trump learned the Rope-A-Dope from his friend Mohammed Ali!
Please excuse my poor 'artwork' replacing Ali & Fraser with Trump & Putin!
#ButNothingsHappening
Rope-a-dope is a boxing technique in which one contender leans against the ropes of the ring & draws non-injuring offensive punches, letting the opponent tire themself out. This gives the former the opportunity then to execute devastating offensive punches to help them win.
So while Putin & his fake news brag about Russia having Ukraine on the ropes, he is wasting what little is left of Russia's military, economy, & manpower to make ineffective attacks on wheat fields in the middle of nowhere.
While Ukraine's counterpunches are crushing Russia.
Edwin Pagan III was indicted in November based upon the OIG investigation.
Now David Macey has been indicted too & the charges agains Pagan have been expanded.
It started as 'tell me who is getting indicted so I can get them to hire me as their lawyer."
Became warn the cartels...
The unsealed indictment is available here:
I don't know why they don't name the 2 DEA agents as they have also been indicted in early cases based on the DOJ OIG investigation. justice.gov/d9/2025-02/u.s…
If you follow the fake news, you won't understand what
this means.
China is controlling rare earth minerals markets by buying Swamp creatures around the world to get mining rights & then not mine the minerals in places like Greenland & Ukraine.
Why? Because the Clinton Admin through the Gore–Chernomyrdin Commission sold those mining rights 30 years ago to oligarchs.
For Ukraine to resell the rights to the US, they must first prove that the sales to Clinton & Putin's oligarchs were corrupt!
