Deranged Rhino Posted April 9, 2020 Posted April 9, 2020 I can't overstate how damning the GP transcripts are to the narrative we've been force-fed. Source 3: I agree with this take. Though, trying to get that confirmed (been trying for over 2 years) is damn near impossible. No one wants to talk about at DOJ. 6

Deranged Rhino Posted April 10, 2020 Posted April 10, 2020 (edited) From the linked article (for those who don't know, Powell is Gen Flynn's attorney) The Spygate connection The reason Trump might want Fine out is the same reason Trump’s opponents would want Fine in. We have a couple of recent windows onto that reason, and both are very informative. One is reporting done since mid-January by Susan Crabtree for Real Clear Politics. Her most recent article on 10 March is the starting point. In it, she recounts how the Trump administration has been taking a penetrating look at a number of the IGs in federal agencies. One of them is Glenn Fine, who has been dragging his heels on the whistleblower-reprisal case of Adam Lovinger. Crabtree reminds us that Lovinger is “an ousted member of Trump’s National Security Council who has become a cause celebre among some of Trump’s closest allies and advisers.” Fine’s role is unimpressive: “Lovinger, who was removed from Trump’s NSC early in the administration, has spent nearly three years on unpaid administrative leave and the last two waiting for acting Defense Department Inspector General Glenn Fine, who was appointed by Obama, to wrap up the case and issue his final report.” But the meat of the issue – as Spygate watchers will readily recall – is that what Lovinger was blowing the whistle on was the use of the Pentagon’s Office of Net Assessment to pay Stefan Halper for the services he rendered to the Spygate operation against the Trump campaign. That is what got Lovinger mistreated as a whistleblower, and why he’s been kept twisting in the wind by the acting DOD IG for the last two years. (snip) One day before Fine was nominated, another appointment of exceptional interest – and relevance – was made. In the DOD Office of Net Assessment, long presided over by Andrew Marshall (who was retiring at the age of 93), James Baker was appointed as Marshall’s successor on 14 May 2015. Baker would be the head of ONA to whom Adam Lovinger made his appeals about misuse of assets and sweetheart deals for cronies. It would be Baker’s ONA that Fine was essentially protecting by ignoring ONA’s retaliation against Lovinger. (Michael Flynn’s defense also believes the ONA Baker leaked transcripts of Flynn’s phone calls with the Russian ambassador to David Ignatius at the Washington Post. All else aside, if James Baker at ONA somehow gained access to those transcripts, that’s a huge problem, and one the DOD IG, or the Intelligence Community IG, could have spent their time on far more worthily than in the ways they have.) This is one of the coincidences Durham has been investigating. Edited April 10, 2020 by Deranged Rhino 4

Deranged Rhino Posted April 10, 2020 Posted April 10, 2020 This is an odd post from a friend who is wired in. I'm assuming he means there will be Flynn news today but I honestly don't know what he's referencing (he's not a Q guy so it likely is not 4/10/20 related) 5

I believe that's what Fog is referring to. ***************** Thoughts from Jeff who is one of the few people who has paid more attention to the minutia of this scandal than even a nerd like me has: ******************* I'd watch all three of those accounts closely today: Techno_Fog, Huber, and Jeff's.

Deranged Rhino Posted April 10, 2020 Posted April 10, 2020 Make no mistake, this declass will answer a lot of "questions". I put the quotes around that word because it's likely already known/deduced what the redactions are hiding -- but, I thought I knew what the GP transcripts would say and that they'd be bad for the FBI narrative, they wound up being WORSE than even I anticipated. If that holds with these footnotes, then we're into a new phase of this. 1 4
Warren Zevon Posted April 10, 2020 Posted April 10, 2020 Only declass that will answer all the Qs is the unredacted Mueller report. *YAWN* until that can be read.

As I've said to 4mer many times throughout the last 2 years -- that's a completely valid fear to have. If you go just based on history and precedent alone, that is indeed the most likely outcome... ... Unless we are truly living in different times. If we are, and if the team around 45 is who I've been led to believe they are, then all those bets are off. But we'll see one way or the other soon enough. I'm still upset they pushed back from last fall to an election year as I thought that was an unnecessary gamble as who knows what could happen to derail it (cough - Covid - cough / black swan event), but sadly I don't get a say in their plans. 1 2

Deranged Rhino Posted April 10, 2020 Posted April 10, 2020 The senators have not publicly identified the four footnotes in question, but sources have previously told the DCNF that they dealt with information related to dossier author Christopher Steele’s interactions with Russian oligarchs, and information from Steele’s sources for the dossier. One of the footnotes refers to evidence that Steele, a former MI6 officer, may have published Russian disinformation in his dossier, the source familiar with the situation told the DCNF. Lawmakers and other government officials have long questioned whether Russian sources intentionally misled Steele as he was investigating Donald Trump in 2016 on behalf of the Clinton campaign and Democratic National Committee. 3 1 1
