Durham’s team filed a pleading in the Danchenko case that describes a potential conflict of interest involving the law firm representing Danchenko. The issue is that a lawyer who’s of counsel to the firm, Robert Trout, represents the Clinton Campaign and certain unnamed members
of the campaign. Trout is not on the Danchenko case, and the law firm has agreed to “wall” Trout off from the lawyers representing Danchenko. Nevertheless Durham asks the court to address the issue, to satisfy itself that Danchenko has been properly advised of the conflict and
has willingly agreed to waive it. The pleading sends some very clear signals as to where Durham is heading. He states that Danchenko could end up being at odds with the campaign as they may try to blame one another for the false statements that ended up in the Steele dossier.
This is the first direct statement we have from Durham that he is looking at the Campaign and persons associated with it as being directly involved in manipulating Danchenko or feeding him false information to go into the dossier. @Techno_Fog discusses the allegations here:
This one contains some new allegations not raised before by others. First, the lawsuit outlines what’s characterized as the “Schiff Playbook.” Taken from Schiff’s recent book, Jones alleges that in reliance on techniques developed during two Trump impeachments, Adam Schiff
developed a playbook for the “draconian use of Congress’s coercive powers to bypass assertions of constitutional rights.” The playbook’s features include: a) refusal to resolve assertions of privilege in court; b) creating public crimes of obstruction for assertions of
As @Techno_Fog reported, on Friday the Durham team filed a pleading in the Danchenko case, suggesting the court take note of a potential conflict Danchenko’s new lawyers may have, because a lawyer who joined the firm in 2021 as “of counsel,” represented the Clinton campaign and
some campaign members. That new lawyer is Robert P Trout, who also appeared as attorney for John Podesta when he gave a deposition for the HPSCI. At the time Trout was affiliated with his own firm. During the Mueller investigation, Trout represented Hope Hicks, and he defended
Bijan Rafiekian, who was charged with FARA violations arising out of his business dealings with Mike Flynn. According to Durham’s filing, Trout’s new firm, Schertler, Onorato, Mead & Sears, have created a Chinese wall to protect the confidences of the firm’s new client, Danchenko
Peer reviewed October 2021 paper by Russian physicists suggests impact of CO2 on global warming is grossly exaggerated in climate models due to error in analyse. They claim doubling CO2 leads to average global warming of only 0.33 degrees C. Observed warming is from water vapor.
I’m not a physicist, but this seems like a big deal. What these Russian scientists say is missing from most climate scientists’ analyses is the recognition that an emitter of infrared radiation such as CO2 is also an absorber. Including that math into the current models
@jsolomonReports covers last week’s FBI and local police raids under search warrants in Mesa County, CO, of the homes of former County Clerk, Tina Peters, and other women:
According to copies of the warrants left with the subjects, the alleged crimes being investigated were tampering with election equipment, which would be a state law offense, and wire fraud, a federal crime. The use of the wire fraud state raises a number of important questions
and could evidence an effort by the DOJ and FBI to target 2020 “election deniers.” According to Solomon’s reporting, backed up by public interviews if Ms. Peters, this investigation arises from Ms Peters’ efforts last May to create a forensic backup of an election server in her
Here is Paul Sperry’s latest article on the Durham probe. It’s well worth a read, containing @SergeiMillian ‘s side of the story about how he was framed. Millian points the finger primarily at Glenn Simpson for coming up with the theory that Millian was a Russian spy and the
person closest to Trump who participated in the conspiracy with Russia. Sperry correctly points out that Danchenko and Steele fabricated out of whole cloth that Millisn was the key source for the most damning elements of the dossier immediately after Simpson and Nellie Ohr
researched Millian. The false story was then fed to the FBI through Brice Ohr by Simpson and Steele,and Simpson fed it to the WaPo and WSJ, which published the false story framing Millian. To this day there has been no retraction. Sperry writes that Ohr is now a target of Durham
Yesterday I outlined how Durham’s strategy appears to be the following: Take down a pre-election conspiracy of Clinton acolytes, lawyers, investigative firms, and other private persons, then move to the post-election phase, targeting those inside the govt who either joined the
original conspiracy or formed a second one to take down the president and/or coverup what had gone on before. I explained that no prosecutor worth his salt would let the criminal FISA abuse go unpunished, but the key date would be post-election, when the second renewal of the
Carter Page warrant was obtained- after the FBI interviewed Danchenko and learned the dossier was nothing bu rumors and bar talk. The coverup of what they learned from Danchenko, notwithstanding his lies, extended well into 2018, during the Mueller investigation. @zerohedge has
