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!
Gone are the days of German leaders from East Germany, weakening NATO by not spending their agreed upon defense budget.
Gone are the days fo German politicians buying energy from Russia & taking Swampy deals & well paid seats on Russian company boards.
Credit Suisse pleads guilty & flips for helping 475 US account holders hide billions from the IRS in off-shore accounts.
They have also signed a deferred prosecution agreement for other crimes & agreed to cooperate!
Crimes from 2010-2021!
#ButNothingsHappening
Credit Suisse will pay $510M in fines & penalties in addition to the guilty plea.
After corrupt bankers collapsed Credit Suisse, UBS bought them & are now also forced to comply with the cooperation agreement!
It's a 2 for 1 special!
The reason for the requirement to plead guilty is likely because when they committed these crimes, they were under a Deferred Prosecution Agreement signed in 2014 that required their cooperation.
They didn't think DOJ would hold them to it!
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.
