THREAD: Breaking. Durham files Motion to Compel Clinton Campaign, DNC, and Fusion GPS to produce material w/h based on "attorney-client" privilege.
2/ In sum, Durham wants the documents w/h identified in appendix to be given to court to decide if privilege. (Reading while tweeting so bear with me). First main argument is that Fusion wasn't retained to help w/ legal advise but to get dirt & that isn't protected.
3/ Ohhh, not sure if this was public before but the white paper re Alfa is included as an exhibit.
4/ Giggle...
5/ I didn't realize this...
6/ LOL Cites Fusion's book as support.
7/ Dang... Exhibit A under seal...
8/ Okay Sleuths...what was this about. AND this makes me even more sus about Joffe's tip to OIG about someone's computer communicating a foreign ip address.
9/ So, Sussmann represented Joffe, but didn't bill him, only Clinton Campaign.
10/ Cute.
11/ While government cites criminal activity exception, Durham doesn't press that argument, but focuses on fact it wasn't legal advise.
🚨🚨🚨BREAKING: @ChuckGrassley released emails include a smoking gun exposing how Tim Thibault was searching for a crime to investigate! 1/
2/ They wanted to open an investigation to allow for investigative activities. NOTE open an investigation to investigate a crime of which they had evidence!
3/ Thibault says we could open an assessment, but that ain't good enough. Why not? Because they can't do what the US Attorney's office wants them to do if it is only an assessment.
🚨🚨🚨Trump Administration files response in opposition to Preliminary Injunction in Planned Parenthood case. The Court already entered a blatantly improper TRO. 1/
3/ New York and several other leftist states sued Department of Education, challenging reduction in forces & Dept of Ed's implementation of Trump policy provisions. Lower court entered injunction mandating rehiring & barring executing Trump's EO.
I'm thinking I may have an idea who some of the State Department employees laid off are...remember those in the "Global Engagement Center" pushing censorship of American media outlets under guise of fighting foreign disinformation? Remember Biden Administration pretending . . .
2/ to shutter GEC after Congress cut off funding but instead moving them to a "Counter Foreign Information Manipulation and Interference Hub ('R/FIMI Hub')."
3/ Well, late last week, in a little noticed court filing, State Department stated this about the new disinformation Hub:
🚨🚨🚨BREAKING: California judge enters TRO against ICE actions. OMgosh...I so called it...it is an "obey the law injunction" that is worthless!
2/ BUT this is different and it complete bullshit!
3/ Here's my earlier thread where I predicted this "follow the law" worthless injunction. (The training requirements/and documentation is entirely different).
