@AGPamBondi @USAO_EDMO According to a report in Bloomberg, @AGPamBondi used 28 USC 515 to give Albus the "authority to conduct voter fraud probes anywhere in the US"
He can "coordinate civil and criminal cases, including grand jury proceedings, in all 94 US attorney districts."
3/n
@AGPamBondi @USAO_EDMO "It’s unclear how many other ongoing investigations Albus is helming under this authority."
4/n
@AGPamBondi @USAO_EDMO "Thomas Albus... appeared on the FBI’s court-approved warrant—rather than the US attorney for the Northern District of Georgia"
5/n
@AGPamBondi @USAO_EDMO In the past several weeks/months, DOJ's @CivilRights Div. has sued 18 states and one county (Fulton) for their 2020 election records.
6/n
@AGPamBondi @USAO_EDMO @CivilRights Now we learn that @TheJusticeDept has also appointed a special prosecutor to investigate election integrity matters.
7/n
@AGPamBondi @USAO_EDMO @CivilRights @TheJusticeDept And this special prosecutor then goes and gets a sweeping search warrant from a judge in Georgia for ALL of Fulton County's 2020 election records.
8/n
On site for the execution of that warrant is @DNIGabbard and FBI Deputy Director @AndrewBaileyMO
Gabbard, we recently learned is working on a report regarding foreign interference in the 2020 election.
She is expected to publish a report on her findings.
@AGPamBondi @USAO_EDMO @CivilRights @TheJusticeDept @DNIGabbard @AndrewBaileyMO The last time Gabbard published a report, it came with criminal referrals.
If this election related report also comes with referrals...
I reckon they'd go to the desk of Special Prosecutor Albus.
🧵There have been a few interesting developments recently in the case of DOW Contractor Perez-Lugones, who stole classified intel, and WaPo's Hannah Natanson who published excerpts of that intel.
I'm going to detail them in this thread and in a new video.

For background, here is my previous thread on this case.
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!
🧵As we expected, or at least hoped for, Don Lemon and several others have been indicted for conspiring to and engaging in a disruption of a church service in St Paul, MN, back on January 18.
Clear violations of the clergy, staff, and parishioners 1A Rights and of the FACE Act
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.
