1. The reason why I believe that DOJ has not moved on the organizers and why people like @RepAdamSchiff say they don't know what's going on, is because the investigation is focused on foreign connections to the coup. Intel committees only get info on certain kinds of operations.
2. They are specifically blocked from counterintelligence related investigations and traditional law enforcement. To view Schiff's evident lack of knowledge of a criminal investigation as evidence that it does not exist evidences a misunderstanding how these matters work.
3. I have been watching small bits of evidence of the investigation since before the 2016 election. Connecting TFG and his funders to a hostile foreign power IMO is far more important that rushing to charge them for what this SCOTUS will certainly term a political act.
4. The head of the National Security Division who the Kremlin-infiltrated @SenateGOP blocked has been on duty less than 5 weeks. This is the biggest investigation in US history and five weeks is far from enough time to start charging participants who, IMO, are still actively
5. engaged in advancing the conspiracy. If you're curious about what the Senate and House intelligence committees are entitled to know I encourage you to read this statute. law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/50…
6. For Tom Clancy fans you might recall Ritter, in Clear and Present Danger, waiving a piece of paper in Jack Ryan's face and asking him if he had one. That was a Presidential finding. And they involve covert operations.
7. There may be some elements of that and it might explain why I detected just a hint of deception in Representative Schiff when he spoke. And fun fact, the day we visited 4th floor Justice and after the FBI agent drew her pistol on me, we had to leave my brother's office while
8. the staff opened my brother's safe to deal with a document. My brother said nothing about, just that cat ate the canary smile. But the kind of psychic connection you get from few people but your big brother made me think instantly, it was a finding.
