According to an HPSCI whistleblower 302, and my own sleuthing, the "system" for leaking classified information to media was "established" by Minority Staff Director Michael Bahar.

**That's if I am correct on what's under the redaction block.** Image
Still not sure who the network admin that set up the stand alone computer in HPSCI offices is.
Tribute to Michael Bahar Image
Going through the Congressional Record, the search terms "Schiff," "Staff," and "Thank you", yields some more staff names.

Michael Bahar plus others. Image
This is from Nov 30, 2016
congress.gov/congressional-…
Some of those staffers mentioned could be on this "Russia Team" that was allegedly acquiring the classified info and then disseminating it to media.

But without more clues as to the makeup of the team, it would be more guessing than sleuthing to plug the names in the blocks. Image
I like guessing, though.

: )
The other set of declassified docs, the "tranche," that has docs related to the several leak investigations may provide more clues.
The network admin who set up that standalone computer possibly ID'd by @kronologist1

@kronologist1 Just guesses as to who the "other staffers" that "Russia Team" conferred with are.

Just because the name fits does not necessarily mean it is that name... but !!!!! Image
@kronologist1 *Just guesses* as to who the "Russia Team" at HPSCI consisted of. Image

🧵UNSEALED: New indictment against Zubayr al-Bakoush for his role in the September 11, 2012, terrorist attack on the U.S. Mission in Benghazi, Libya.

Charges include conspiracy, terrorism, attempted murder, murder, and arson.

1/n Image
Al-Bakoush is the third person to be apprehended and charged in connection to the Benghazi attack.

The other two are Ahmed Salim Faraj Abu Khatallah and Mustafa Muhammad Muftah al-Imam.

2/n
Abu Khattala was indicted in August of 2013 and captured by Delta Force in June 2014.

He was convicted in 2017, sentenced in 2018, but the sentence was later overturned due to it being WAY too low—just 22 years.

He was resentenced to 28 years and is now in the CO Supermax.

I'm going to detail them in this thread and in a new video.

AG Pam Bondi has empowered the US Attorney for Eastern Missouri, Thomas Albus, as a Special Prosecutor for DOJ under 28 USC 515 and directed him to conduct voter fraud probes in all 94 US Districts.

His first overt move was to convince a magistrate judge in Fulton County to authorize a search warrant for their 2020 election records. The FBI executed that search warrant last week under the supervision of FBI Deputy Director Andrew Bailey and DNI Tulsi Gabbard.

Why would the DNI be there? Well, according to the WSJ, she's been given a task: investigate foreign interference in recent elections—including 2020.

This means that components of both the DOJ and the ODNI are working on election fraud and foreign interference inquiries right now. Interesting!

He can "coordinate civil and criminal cases, including grand jury proceedings, in all 94 US attorney districts."

Indycar teams, services, safety crews, Marshall’s, transport teams, mechanics, parts suppliers, etc etc etc… all the thousands of people who are required in order to make an Indycar race safely and professionally take place made their plans for 2026 a year ago. Such an upheaval of those plans and a scramble to cram in a race to a calendar that was set many months ago is going to a) piss people off, b) give people severe headaches, c) increase expenditures, and d) set up the race for embarrassment and disarray.

And that’s before we even consider the track, driver and spectator safety, tv coverage plans, radio and timing setup up, the pit setup, hospitality, bathrooms, get approvals from the governing bodies and utilities, etc etc etc.
Indycar doing a race on the east coast, in or near DC?

That’s a fantastic idea!

Forcing a race to happen with only like seven months to plan it all out, get the budgets for it, build the paddock and track, account for all the safety concerns, etc etc.

Ludicrous.
