THEAD But also this: Reviewing now.
2/ It is up at courtlistener too: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…
3/ Snicker:
4/ For non-lawyers this is the standard:
5/ Bam. Or as I said at the time:
6/ thefederalist.com/2022/02/18/mic…
7/ And this:
8/ And most simply this:
9/ LOL
Me two weeks ago:
Special Counsel's Office Today:
...wait for it...
10/ You knew it was coming . . .
11/ Next portion of brief argues it is premature to decide materiality now b/c that is typically a jury question. Durham's team then notes that all of Sussmann's case law involved challenges to materiality after case presented at trial or even post-conviction.
12/ Durham's team then distinguishes all of that case law before noting that even under Sussmann's argument the lie impacted decision to open investigate:
13/ Yup. As I said...visualize GIF
14/ As I also said, if this was "part of job" and norm, why are they using Sussmann to go to FBI instead of the tech folks or Joffe doing directly!
15/ This point about Joffe using Sussmann to go to FBI/CIA applies equally to him using Sussmann to go to DOJ IG. WHY? And there Sussmann said on behal of an anon client? WHY? You'd want DOJ IG to know it was someone w/ connections who was reliable, wouldn't you?
16/ If you aren't up on the IG angle, read her: thefederalist.com/2022/01/31/spe…
17/ Great point here:
18/ Pass the popcorn please..
19/ No, this isn't overreach Durham explain:
20/ And yes, the comparison to an ex i absurd!
21/ This should leave a mark:
22/ In sum, Motion to Dismiss will be denied. This response not only devastated Sussmann's brief but also exposed the Sussmann Cheering Squard that launched the "no materaility" chant in unison when the indictment broke as clowns. I'm looking at you @lawfareblog
23/ Other than that, nothing knew BUT this "among the Internet data" reminds me that there was more targetted. It came up in another filing or media piece but can't remember what that was so I'll have to dig that up.
24/24 And the stressing that Joffe went to FBI before so why not know I think shows the DOJ IG is more significant than I thought. ...and I thought it was pretty big....digging more there. END

THREADETTE: ⬇️is my play-by-play of 9th Cir. decision. Top-line: Loss to Trump AND horrible opinion b/c law is clear that "reasonable suspicion" depends on totality of circumstances & yet court prevents ICE from considering totality of circumstances. 1/
2/ District court had actually allowed for that by including "expected as permitted by law," which the 9th Cir. struck. 9th Cir. THEN, after saying ICE could consider other circumstances, actually altered injunction's language of "presence at a particular location" Image
3/ THIS is what 9th Cir. said was enjoined: that "whether that be a random location . . . or a location selected 'because past experiences have demonstrated that illegal aliens utilize or seek work at these locations, . . ." That ADDED a limitation of a circumstance ICE CAN consider in totality of the circumstances.Image

🚨🚨🚨BREAKING: 9th Cir. denies Trump Administration stay regarding district court's efforts to micromanage ICE "except as to a single clause" but that single clause is what allowed ICE to do it's job! Still reading so clarity to follow. 1/ Image
2/ As I noted before one of the problems with the court's injunction is that you can't enjoin a situation where the situation depends on all of the facts and circumstances, for instance, if a voluntary encounter which needs no reasonable suspicion. Image
Image
3/ On that point: That is exactly what the training is. You can see from this language the specific details needed to know whether there is or isn't reasonable suspicion. Image

🧵I wanted to re-read a section of Brennan's testimony to HPSCI and ended up re-reading the entire thing. There's a whole lot of lying going on! Image
Image
Image
2/ Holy crap! Brennan says there were "two" products produced--but there were three and the third one was the only one that included referenced to the Steele dossier and other fake intel! Image
Image
Image
3/ Wasn't intel less conclusive? And YIKES... Image

Also, I've gotten the question of is Trump going to SCOTUS? I thought they would because d.ct.'s ruling was sooooo nutso, but the appellate court stayed the lower court's holding IJ had to give him a hearing on avoiding removal on alternative grounds. 1/
2/ IJ held removable for lying on visa application and Khalil sought a hearing on whether IJ should waive that based on loving husband/father. New Jersey judge said IJ had to give hearing on that argument. Appellate court stayed that. So he is still removable based on that.
3/ I think Trump Administration decided it wasn't worth rushing & seeking SCOTUS involvement because SCOTUS wouldn't see a "rush" risk b/c alternative basis allows it to percolate for some time. Given timing & desire to not push too much, I get it.

🔥Below is play-by-play 🧵of quick once-over of Appendix. My big picture take-away is this: The details reveal how corrupt the investigation into Trump was! They opened Crossfire Hurricane on the Presidential candidate with nothing, continued it with that nothing disproven AND 1/
2/ continued it during President's first term with more nothings and evidence that it was all fake. I care more about that fact and fact that Obama, Brennan, Clapper, Comey, Mueller, and more conspired to further hoax, along with media than that they ignored Clinton plan.
3/ This new evidence is damning of FBI's failure to investigate Lynch, Clinton, and others, and that's bad. But what's worse is what they did--target Trump to destroy his candidacy and then his presidency. It's also damning on Think Tanks & legacy media's involvement.
