Understand what @jsolomonReports is saying here: The DOJ/FBI plotters *hid* their meeting with Perkins Coie lawyer working for Hillary Clinton & the DNC who handed off the Steele Dossier info to them.
They redacted this to keep people from seeing it.

@jsolomonReports Remember the 2 roles Perkins Coie played in this hoax:
STEP 1:
Hillary Clinton Campaign/DNC $$$ ----> Perkins Coie ----> Fusion GPS ---> Christopher Steele ---> Steele Dossier
STEP 2:
Perkins Coie ---> FBI ---> FISA Court ---> Carter Page Surveillance Warrant

Well now the hatred Christopher Steele has for @realDonaldTrump makes so much more sense, he’s a “confirmed socialist” why isn’t that mentioned more? #SteeleDossier 
Guessing @The_War_Economy covered this months ago, I’m always late to his party.
It’s interesting how much was reported freely before the infamous Dossier became so crucial.

Buried in Cohen's legal documents, prosecutors say Cohen paid $50,000 for work "solicited from a technology company during and in connection with the campaign."🔥
The campaign *never reported* the $50,000 expense, and Cohen was reimbursed by Trump Org.🤨

Cohen had bank records for other expenses, but only provided a HANDWRITTEN sum for the $50,000, suggesting that the money may not have been paid out via "traditional" financial channels (meaning: CASH pay-offs).🙄 3/

#FTR: Nixon WH Counsel, John Dean, is pretty much universally considered a hero in the Watergate scandal.
While he wasn't an angel, his cooperation ultimately led to Nixon's impeachment and resignation.
Hmm, I wonder why Trump would call him a "RAT" and view him negatively...?

#FLAG: Trump invokes McCarthyism, while hurling unfounded accusations at Democrats and the Special Counsel.
He claims he demands transparency, while his White House lies at every turn.
When he says "many lives have been ruined," he's setting up pardons.

It's a repeated counter-narrative about the FusionGPS commissioned #SteeleDossier, claiming it's collusion.

⚖️Interesting. Over in Florida where Gubarev is suing Buzzfeed, they’ve filed to seal Anthony Ferrante’s testimony. This case is the same one that was able to depose Christopher Steele in the UK and allegedly is providing that testimony to @ChuckGrassley
Who is Ferrante? Apparently he’s a former “top FBI” agent under Obama admin who was in charge of cyber response (where he clearly failed) but it worked out because now he’s getting paid to “verify” #SteeleDossier claims.
Apparently he’s working on behalf of FTI who is said to be working side by side with Mueller? What a joke that is if true.

🔥Former #CIA operative, Bob Baer, says @realDonaldTrump became a #Russian🇷🇺agent (unwittingly) at a NYC cocktail party in 1986. **Before** the #SteeleDossier was released, a KGB contact told Baer: “We have a tape of Donald Trump.”😎

Until then they can carry on not understanding that the files released do not support a FISA warrant against Page, but that the redacted portions might, though if those portions did, it would be hard to see why the Obama DOJ both padded and misled the FISC re provenance of 2

1) I think I've figured out the dates the FISA documents were signed. All 4 of them.

2) Side note, a redacted "Supervisory Special Agent" signed off on the #SteeleDossier, representing to the court that it has been verified for accuracy. Very annoying redactions.
Anyway, I started with Oct 1, which it can't be because 90 days takes it to Dec. Same for Oct 2.

50/ I will make my way through this FISA information on Carter Page. It is quite lengthy, so I will analyze it over time. int.nyt.com/data/documenth…
51/ This FISA application was filed in October, 2016, listing Carter Page, an agent of Russia, as the target.
52/ Carter Page engaged in intelligence gathering activities for Russia, and he was “the subject of targeted recruitment by the Russian government [REDACTED] undermine and influence the outcome of the 2016 US Presidential election in violation of criminal law.”
Has everyone forgotten that the same “intel community” lied about WMD’s and started a war that’s still going? Comey, Clapper, Brennan, Hayden, Mueller AND MI6 were all there. So YES @realDonaldTrump & anyone else with a brain should be skeptical #Russia

2/ Count One is Conspiracy to Commit an Offense Against the US. It is alleged that Russia, through its military intel agency (GRU) engaged in large-scale cyber intrusion operations and staged release of documents to interfere in the 2016 election.
3/ In paragraph 8, indictment alleges those charged “conspired with each other, *AND WITH PERSONS KNOWN AND UNKNOWN TO THE GRAND JURY*” —this implies there are *UNCHARGED CO-CONSPIRATORS*. Acts began in March, 2016. Releases began in June, 2016, continuing through November 2016.

Carter Page is an FBI asset in Mar 2016 & yet somehow by Oct 2016 he is touted a foreign agent, acting on behalf of mother Russia, & deserving of a FISA Title-1 Surveillance Warrant to be monitored as if he were a terrorist en-route to the detonation site: theconservativetreehouse.com/2018/05/18/pre…
2. "Carter Page's an FBI asset & witness, who'd been responsible for busting a high level Russian agent; DOJ National Security Division & FBI Counterintelligence Division knew damn well Page wasn’t a Russian agent & flat-out LIED to the FISA court." theconservativetreehouse.com/2018/05/18/pre… …
3. The FISA surveillance authority over Carter Page was retroactive cover for DOJ & FBI surveillance on Trump campaign. Prior to the Oct 21, 2016 FISA Warrant, FBI was limited to using illegal searches of FISA(702)(16)(17) FBI & NSA data; & (cf NYT) “National Security Letters”.

1) Let's take this single source story with a grain of salt. 2) Even without this story, what are Qatari officials doing at Trump Tower 4 days after buying Rosneft, and then lending Kushner $184 million a year later? See timeline for all the Russia-Trump-Kushner contacts Dec'16.
