🧵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!
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!
3/ Wasn't intel less conclusive? And YIKES...
4/ They didn't notify RNC of a hack did they?
5/ More lies: "Very clearly"
6/ More BS
7/ 💀💀💀
7/ More on ICA. Liar, liar, pants on fire.
9/ Oh, this is rich!! Clearly he means "we" as in the deep state sees fit!
10/ Keep in mind Brennan said this after saying there were 2 versions of the IC, when there were 3 and the third was the one that relied on the Steele dossier.
11/ "For good reason". . . Umm, I wasn't involved production and review process? Didn't Brennan trump analysts?
12/ Weird, Brennan didn't mention the Presidential Daily Brief that was prepared and then pulled!
13/ From earlier in report: Obama directed Brennan to call the Russians after they discovered Hillary plan. After that "warning" all the intel IC pulled from Russia re interference dried up.
14/ Brennan testified he brief gang of 8 from Aug. to Sept. that intel was Putin wanted to help Trump. There was no evidence of this at the time or even as of Dec. 9, when leaks began per recent DNI releases. So made up that "fact" in briefing Gang of 8.
15/ Another key point is Brennan testified he passed on info to FBI of contacts between Russia officials and U.S. persons involved in Trump campaign. Very important for @CIADirector to investigate what info Brennan passed on here. Did it include Dearlove or Halper's statement re Flynn? Halper re Page?
@CIADirector 16/ Finally, important for the classified transcript of the closed session to be declassified to see what other lies Brennan told in closed session. Full Transcript. docs.house.gov/meetings/ig/ig…
@CIADirector 17/17 Biggest "finds" to me are Brennan in lying about Steele dossier also lied about how many versions of ICA there were--there were 3 and third is what mentioned Steele dossier. Also, Brennan's lies re how ICA drafted/reliability is much more blatant than I realized.

The press (legacy and new) and the investing public seem to have no idea what the Obama Administration launched in the Consolidated Audit Trail and what current SEC is currently doing--computer searches of OUR private data without any basis! @NCLAlegal 1/
2/ I'm frankly shocked that more civil libertarians aren't screaming about this! And now SEC is trying to delay Plaintiffs' day in court! Details here: nclalegal.org/feds-are-steal…
I'm working on a piece tomorrow to counter all the spin on the courts refusing to issue arrest warrant against Don Lemon in first instance as somehow vindicating him. BUT I think it merits stressing WHY DOJ sought arrest warrant that way first. 1/
2/2 DOJ feared there would be widespread copycat assaults in places of worship the following weekend unless it moved quickly to show public such behavior was illegal and would be prosecuted.
THREAD: Yesterday @EdWhelanEPPC defended Judge Schlitz for not recusing in ICE cases even though he is publicly listed as a donor to Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota. @HarmeetKDhillon called him out. 1/
2/ Ed quoted from a section of the Compendium § 4.2-3(g)), a federal appellate judge shared with him that stated: “A judge may contribute financially to legal service associations that provide counsel for the poor. A judge need not recuse merely because lawyers who accept appointments by such associations are also counsel of record in cases before that judge.”
3/ @HarmeetKDhillon correctly pointed out that language is out-of-context & cherry picked & ignores other canons. Before explaining, let me provide some background so you can judge the analysis. For at least 6 (possibly 8) years, my federal appellate judge tasked me as sole
2/ Jordan lays out at high level all efforts to "get Trump" that has been going on for 10 years. Beginning with Clinton and Steele dossier, and Comey, and impeachment one, impeachment two, Bragg, and Fani Willis.
3/ Jordan notes how Smith brought on same people who ran raid at Mar-a-Lago and Jan. 7. And how Smith ignore procedures, gagged Trump, filed a 165 motion 33 days before the election.
