Just going to look around and see what I can find on two former National Intelligence Council people, Mike Collins (a different one) and Maria Langan-Riekhof.
Michael Collins joined a podcast on September 1, 2023, where he spoke with David Kris (Culper Partners) about a lot of things.

That podcast was Lawfare.

Michael Collins has worked as the Chief of Staff to the Deputy Director of the CIA, worked on moderisation reviews, and was Deputy Director of the East Asian Pacific Mission Center, before moving to the National Intelligence Council.

Maria Langan-Riekhof is on the leadership team at the Josef Korbel School of International Studies' Social Sciences Foundation.

Others include Daniel Franklin (The Economist), Daniel Yohannes, Mayu Avila (El Salvador) and Kal Kallauger (The Economist).

Maria Langan-Riekhof has 27 years experience and has been:

* Chief of CIA's Red Cell
* Founder of CIA's Strategic Insight Department
* Research Director for the Middle East

She was the CIA's fellow at the Brookings Institution from 2016 - 2017.

Michael Collins has spoken at the Center For Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) on a panel moderated by Bob Schieffer (former Face the Nation host) back in March 2019.

In June 2023, Maria Langan-Riekhof opened a workshop at George Washington University with a keynote address. The workshop was hosted by Allied Command Transformation's Strategic Foresight Branch.

Seems as if Maria Langan-Riekhof worked on the 4-year national intelligence report (it gets released every 4 years) back in 2021.

Maria Langan-Riekhof's mention as a Federal Executive Fellow on the Brookings Institution website.

Maria Langan-Riekhof spoke at the European Strategy and Policy Analysis System back in 2021.

Durham Appendix is out, I've decided to immediately archive this for future reference.

From 2014 to 2016, individuals affiliated with Russian intelligence services hacked several US public and private entities, including think thanks, government agencies and NGOs, including Open Society Foundations in 2016. Image
The information was handed over to the Federal Bureau of Investigation through an intermediary, I guess, and 2 of the e-mails appear to have originated from the Open Society Foundations.

The author was apparently Leonard Benardo. Image

I want to go bed but John Brennan and James Clapper have published an opinion piece for The New York Times - "Brennan and Clapper: Let's Set the Record Straight on Russia and 2016".

Okay, Brennan and Clapper are using the Marco Rubio defence. Image
Durham and Mueller defences. Image

The draft version of the Online Safety Bill in the UK was presented to UK Parliament by the Minister of State For Digital and Culture back in May 2021.

Caroline Dinenage, Baroness Lancaster of Kimbolton. Current Chair of Culture, Media and Sport.

Caroline Dinenage, during a debate on January 17, 2023, said that Sir Jeremy Wright was the one that kicked off the Online Safety Bill.

She's happy the Opposition will support the bill.

Jeremy Wright is unfortunately still in office as an MP for Kenilworth and Southam.

He was, at one point, the Secretary of State For Digital, Culture, Media and Sport from July 9, 2018 to July 24, 2019.

Is it me or is this particular department just absolutely trash? Image

Alright, so at some point, the Federal Bureau of Investigation received a total of 8 thumb drives, with the first 5 being looked into, including a series of e-mails from the Executive Office, the State Department, the House of Representatives...

archive.ph/ksiGjImage
Obama's e-mails were found in the review of the first 5 thumb drives, advanced intelligence on an FBI arrest of a Russian citizen, network infrastructure diagrams of US government classified networks, and more. Image
On thumb drives 3 and 4, it focused on the State Department communications, with a good chunk of all thumb drives related to the State Department, having infiltrated it for a while, presumably a few months at least. Image

I'm actually reading those Tulsi documents before I do other things.
The main thing for myself to keep in mind is that John Brennan had already formed the Working Group / Fusion Cell at the point these declassification e-mails all start. Image
And the Working Group was doing these tasks. Image

I regret to inform you that the unemployed are preparing for yet another protest called Good Trouble Lives On for July 17, 2025, because they literally have nothing better to do.
