Paul Behrends: Staff Director, House Foreign Affairs Cmte (& aide to Rep Rohrabacher)—Fired.

Too cozy w/ Russia.
👇
Rohrabacher met w/ Assange yesterday to *allegedly* talk asylum; reporting back to Trump.

Asylum excuse➡️fake news.

More work for Mueller.
The Rohrabacher-Assange mtg was arranged by Charles C. Johnson: a Holocaust denier booted from twitter who writes Nazi in quotes.
I imagine taking mtgs w/ Amerikanski congressmen like Rohrabacher is noticed by Assange's Russian SVR bodyguards.
Oddly, Rohrabacher is proud to be the only Rep relaying info b/w Trump & Assange.

*DirCIA (Apr17): "WikiLeaks is a hostile intel service."

Manafort

US & Spain both want to extradite Firtash. So Austria rejecting Spain➡️good for US.

Assuming Sessions wants Dmytro.
Assange is trolling Rohrabacher.

Evidence can implicate others, it can't "exonerate" Russia (prove innocent).

Only investigation can.
Assange: ”We can confirm an approach by Cambridge Analytica..."

CA investors: Mercers, Bannon (sold Apr17).

Cambridge Analytica contacted Assange about Hillary emails.

Flynn had consulting contract w/ CA Fall 2017.

Fishy?

1. There are three methods for dealing w/ noncompliance to Congressional subpoenas; each invokes authority from one of three branches of Gov:

1) Inherent Contempt
—Authority of Congress

2) Criminal Contempt
—Authority of Executive

3) Civil Contempt
—Authority of Judiciary
2. The House Judiciary Cmte is pursuing Criminal Contempt.

The Cmte votes today on resolution recommending Pelosi hold a full House chamber vote citing AG Barr w/ Criminal Contempt for noncompliance w/ subpoenas for full unredacted Mueller Report.
(2 U.S.C. § 194 and § 194).
3. Next steps

a) Pelosi schedules full House vote on Barr Contempt citation.
b) If approved, citation is sent to US Attorney for DC, Jessie Liu.
c) Liu decides whether to prosecute her boss, Atty-Gen Barr.
d) If Liu prosecutes, she presents Contempt citation to DC Grand Jury.

Trump's 2020 reelection prospects just nosedived: large-dollar donors don't like Feds sniffing around.

Criminal investigation of Trump Inauguration opened (Apr18) after FBI find audio tape of Wolkoff telling Michael Cohen she's worried about spending by the Inaugural Committee.
Federal investigation into mismatched payments/receipts at Trump Inaugural Committee partially solved:

The Inaugural Cmte for Trump was overcharged by venues, services and sub-contractors managed by... Trump.

Unknown who pocketed difference btwn market rates and quoted rates.
To recap—after two days of reporting, Wolkoff personally expressed concern about how the Trump Inaugural Committee was spending money to:

- Ivanka Trump
- Rick Gates
- Michael Cohen
- Mickael Damelincourt (Managing Director, Trump International Hotel)

Boasting about his "tough" stance on Russia today, Trump said "we had a very severe fight in Syria recently...between our troops & Russian troops. It was very sad. Many people died in that fight."

That "fight"? It was actually an ambush of US troops by Russian mercenaries.
US Asst Secretary Wess Mitchell discussed the ambush on US troops by Russian mercenaries in his testimony before the House Foreign Affairs Cmte today.

"We are pushing Russia to be a constructive participant in this process and to bring Assad to the negotiating table. So far, Russia has ignored these calls..."

🔥NUNES🔥

THREAD: Devin Nunes is a *ONE MAN WRECKING BALL* against House Intel’s #TrumpRussia🇷🇺probe‼️

Nunes never gave up his sole authority to sign subpoenas & his veto cost Dems DOZENS of requests for interviews/docs that were NEVER sent‼️ 1/

washingtonpost.com/powerpost/devi…
Instead of investigating how #Russia🇷🇺threw the election to Trump, Nunes is attacking Team🇺🇸Mueller & federal law enforcement‼️

Nunes convened a group of House Intel Republicans to draft a likely report on “corruption” among the investigators working for Mueller.🤬 2/
Democrats requested subpoenas to obtain additional testimony from key #TrumpRussia🇷🇺figures, who were not forthcoming enough in interviews👉🏼including Jeff Sessions & Don Jr.🤨

But NUNES *blocked* the subpoenas‼️ 3/
