Of course they knew the dossier was biased. Bruce Ohr briefed Andrew Weissmann, Bruce Swartz and Zainab Ahmad in August 2016.

As a reminder, on August 3, 2016, Bruce Ohr met with Andrew McCabe and Lisa Page to discuss Steele's "information".

"There are few things that President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia desires more than the weakening of NATO."
For those of you interested, I'm still half-invested in the "Trump threatening NATO started Spygate" theory.

It turns out that Aveshka not only deals with FISAs, but it also deals with national security letters and the President's Intelligence Advisory Board (IOB).
"In November 2002, we created a specialised unit within the Office of General Counsel to support and streamline functions related to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) process."
FISA Unit.

Don't forget that National Security Letters were sent out over the course of Crossfire Hurricane.

So Bill Kristol's GOP Unrigged wants you to sign a petition - which, by the way, NEVER ACTUALLY WORK - named "Don't Let President Trump Rig the Primary System".

"Trump loyalists are trying to do whatever they can to insulate the president from a primary challenge by rigging the system in his favor. They want Republicans to hand Donald Trump a victory without a vote, but that's not how America works. Sign this petition."
I'm not 100% on this, obviously, but the whole "Trump classified Israel information" stuff from May 10, 2017 was probably the justification the FBIdiots used to investigate Trump as a Russian spy.
"FBI officials viewed their decision to move quickly as validated when a comment the president made to visiting Russian officials in the Oval Office shortly after he fired Mr. Comey was revealed days later."

So what is the deal with Alfa Bank?
Let's break it down.

To understand the true scope of the Alfa Bank story, we will also have to incorporate Daniel Jones into the mix.
On January 11, 2016, Christopher Steele met Adam Waldman, where they discussed Oleg Deripaska's attempts to gain a visa for business at the end of February 2016.

So the Carter Page FISA was being discussed in September 2016. Stu Evans was in charge of the FISA process, but the FBI did not tell Stu about Crossfire Hurricane. Toscas told Stu about the investigation in August 2016 without telling the FBI.

Stu Evans must have had a relationship with Aveshka then.

pewdiepie won't.
I just watched the clip and it's Baked Alaska doing the Hit or Miss song, but it's Alex Jones voice clips. That's it. But yes, pewdiepie will now be declared a Nazi again by the media.
"Moscow-based Kaspersky Lab turned Harold T. Martin III in to the NSA after receiving strange Twitter messages in 2016 from an account linked to him".
"Martin used an anonymous Twitter account with the name 'HAL999999999' to send five cryptic, private messages to two researchers at [Kaspersky Lab]."
"After each researcher responded to the confusion messages, Hal blocked them."

In the Equation Group dump is a module known as "m12000000", or TADAQUEOUS, which does not have a Listening Post (LP) attached to it.
"It can only be loaded and unloaded through this interface, not controlled, and it will spit an error message."

What apparently TADAQUEOUS does is cripple or disable IPsec, or Internet Protocol Security.
"Most of the symbols are not standard Linux symbols but specific to the TOS/Fortinet implementation."

"I read this to mean that the hardware or software of the system running IPsec was compromised, causing it to send valid protocol ESP packets, but creating those in such a way that these could be decrypted without knowing the ESP session keys (from IKE)".

On December 31, 2018, Josh Gerstein at Politico published the article "Suspect's Twitter messages played role in NSA hacking-tools leak probe".

"Messages that the former NSA computer security specialist, Hal Martin, sent via Twitter appear to have led to an FBI raid on his Maryland home and to his arrest on charges of retaining a vast trove of classified information there without permission."

For reference, Harold T. Martin III was arrested on August 27, 2016 after the Shadow Brokers initiated a hunt within the National Security Agency, where they found 16 years worth of classified information.

Since @jimsciutto doesn't understand that Christopher Steele was hired in June 2016 and the contract between Fusion GPS and Free Beacon ended before then, and that the first memo was written for June 20, 2016, I will explain it:
Christopher Steele was hired to write the dossier.
Christopher Steele was hired to write the dossier.
The fact that @CNN and @jimsciutto keep saying that Republicans funded the dossier would join with @Comey's idea that Republicans funded the dossier, which is completely incorrect.
You know, it's not the first time @jimsciutto has claimed that parts of the dossier have been verified. This was back in February 2017 though. I wonder who his source is?
"The DNC had several meetings with representatives of the FBI's Cyber Division and its Washington Field Office, the DOJ's National Security Division, and US Attorney's Offices, and it responded to a variety of requests for cooperation..."
"... but the FBI never requested access to the DNC's computer servers", Eric Walker, the DNC's deputy communications director, told BuzzFeed News in an email.
Quote is from Ali Watkins' BuzzFeed News article from January 4, 2017, "The FBI Never Asked For Access To Hacked Computer Servers".

I decided to check out Tovo Labs and Dialectica and I had varied and confusing results.
Of course there was. Let's have a read.

Democrats and the media now justifying calling the President a motherfucker when you're a Congressperson.
So why are we still getting people fired for old tweets again?

"What Trump said was bad!!!"
"Calling Trump a motherfucker as an elected representative is perfectly okay because they didn't stoop to Trump's level!!!"
Holy fuck, what level of insane delusion do you have to be on for that logic?

The only reason this is in the article is to push Trump-Russia.
There's more to the Whelan story, especially the weird thing the media is doing by suggesting a prisoner exchange: Whelan for Butina. I've not found the original suggestion of that.

The more I read about Brian Stelter, the more I actually get why he still works at CNN. Keep your "yes, because he's fake news" comments to one side, I mean in terms of how he got into the position in the first place, et cetera.
I wonder what Brian actually knows about everybody? What's his ACTUAL worth to CNN?
Thread on CrowdStrike. I'll just add to it whenever I can be bothered.
On June 2, 2014, the US DOJ published "US Leads Multi-National Action Against GameOver Zeus Botnet and Cryptolocker Ransomware, Charges Botnet Administrator", where they worked with Dell SecureWorks and CrowdStrike to take down Evgeniy Bogachev.

It was on July 23, 2016 that the Australian Government contacted Elizabeth Dibble at the United States Embassy in London, England to inform her of the Downer-Papadopoulos conversation. This information was transmitted to the FBI's Headquarters.

John Sipher, as he states, "The Steele info was just a starting point for professional investigators."
I thought Steele was a professional investigator? Or Fusion GPS? Isn't that what they're meant to do: investigate?
But instead they handed out their information to everybody.

Let's face the facts. They handed out the dossier to multiple intelligence agencies around the world, they handed it out to various news agencies around America, they handed it out to random people at random times. They didn't actually care who took it.
How many professional investigators does it take to get to the bottom of the dossier?
Hell, the first memo was written on June 20, 2016. So it's been over two years now and these "professional investigators" still have fuck all, but sure, the narrative is the most important.

"An MI6 official, whose job does not permit him to be quoted by name, said that in late summer or early fall, Mr. Steele also passed the reports he had prepared on Mr. Trump and Russia to British intelligence."
That's a buried quote. I also wonder...

More specifically, this was "late July / early August" that MI6 started to receive Steele's memos.
