THREAD: So given DARPA's denial (typo below), what are possibilities? Someone at DARPA asked Antonakakis to help identify "Gucifer" and he said no. Someone at DARPA asked Antonakakis to help identify "Gucifer" but it wasn't pat of DARPA's job/function, which might explain 1/
2/ Why Durham per Antonakakis asked if he thought it was appropriate DARPA asked him to do so. If that's what happen, did that person do it w/o authorization?
Really do not see Antonakakis making up the question and Antonakakis' email doesn't read like he denied the ask.
3/ Antonakakis' response seemed outraged that SC would think he shouldn't look into Gucifer, so unlikely that if they made the ask he said no. I've requested clarification from @DARPA Will transparency win?
4/ Can someone remind me what @nytimes won its Pulitzer for in the Russia Collusion Crappola category? Asking for someone who broke wide open a DOD intrigue.

THREAD: Here's piece #2 @FDRLST which explains interesting twist re Joffe and his access to EOP data given new Georgia Tech document. 1/ thefederalist.com/2022/03/14/exc…
2/ Read article to see how this unravels in detail, but in short Manos said SC was lying b/c he didn't know 2 hoaxes--Alfa Bank & Russian Yota phones. Second used EOP data during transition period.
3/ Interesting twist is this: Re-re-reading indictment now, consider what SC said re EOP data. SC made clear used by GA Tech by researcher for proposal. Previously was suspect of that but Manos' email confirms.
THREAD: ⬇️The people to blame for making our country less safe are the people who abused the FISA court & exploited DARPA data for political reasons or remained quiet once they realized what others were doing, not those who expose abuse & exploitation. 1/
2/ And it is precisely because I believe FISA & enhanced attribution are necessary to protect our national security that I am outraged at the abuse, exploitation, and excusing of the former. Americans are (or have) lost trust in our government & will demand reforms/limits
3/ that will put us more at risk because of the abuse or exploitation. I keep siddling closer to the libertarian camp every day b/c of what I'm discovering. And burying that truth isn't going to make our country safer.
Conflict of Interest hearing live now in Sussmann case:
2/ Conflict waived. Now on Motion to Strike. Judge couple questions: Being defense has no objection to engaging Sussmann w/ colloque why not just consent motion. Reason for motion-prosecutor wanted to be extra careful to have factual basis and make record.
3/ Prosecutor: Wanted to make crystal clear on record.
Defendant: Wants to guard against this happening again.
