One day while picking my son up from day care, I noticed all the kids checking me out in a very particular manner. I asked him what they had done today, and apparently, they had been talking about what their parents did for work.
"I couldn't remember if you are with the FBI or the CIA, but the guys thought it was pretty cool" he said
While he had a few details wrong, it made for a good story at morning coffee with my IBM colleagues the next day.
Ask yourself: Why is the media ignoring the Russian #bribery of FBI's Charles McGonigal?
Are they under orders from Trumpers inside #FBI to hide fbi #corruption?
Trump's Chris Wray has known about this since 2019.
Rosenstein severely limited scope of the investigation into Donald's Russian funders.
NYT: former deputy attorney general instructed Special Counsel Robert Mueller NOT to investigate Trump's personal & financial ties to Russia.
Mueller was limited that was a red line, he could not investigate money ties with Russians. Mueller tried to get financials from Deutsche Bank, but he couldn't. M$M was behind the times. Just like they are now. Rosenstein narrowed Mueller's scope of investigation. Barr finished him off as TOC fixer. He'd covered up Iran Contra too.
Charlie McGonigal fbi traitor.
McGonigal used to be the FBI's top NYC spy-hunter, had top-level access to classified intel.
McGonigal was arrested for illicitly taking Russian money, among other things.
The FBI advises AdBlocker because of attack vector from cybercriminals and that will mean quite a bit. I advise you to be careful which one you use, because some are also malware and I recommend @ublockorigin.
#FBI#Surveillance#Privacy#Encryption: "As a privacy and encryption advocate, there were moments in this story that made me a little uncomfortable. There are places where the FBI is chafing at the constitutional limits on its surveillance powers where we can't help but sympathize with these "good guys" going after "bad guys." But this is the FBI, a lawless, unaccountable secret police who routinely bypass those limits by secretly buying data from sleazy data-brokers, or illegally sharing data with the NSA.
The conclusion really hammers home the point that the FBI's problem isn't constitutional niceties. Despite seizing hundreds of tons of illegal drugs and arresting thousands of high-ranking criminal syndicate bosses, Anom made no difference in the drug trade. Prohibition, after all, just makes criminals more wealthy and powerful. The Anom raids were, at worst, the cost of doing business – and at best, they were a global reset that cleared the board of established actors so that other criminals could seize their turf.
But even though Anom didn't triumph over crime, Dark Wire is a triumph. The book's out today, and there will shortly be a Netflix adaptation based on it, directed by Jason Bateman:"
Testimony in a #Michigan court Fri, revealed both #state & #federal investigators continue to probe certificates that falsely claimed #Trump won the #2020election, 5 months before the next election.
On day 4 of prelim examinations for 6 #Republicans who signed the false certificate in MI, MSP Capt Darren Green, said he was interviewed Thurs by the #FBI & 2 US prosecutors from DC.
On the 1st day of #testimony in #HunterBiden’s federal #gun trial, #jurors heard his audio of his memoir, where he recounted his #drug use in graphic detail. A federal prosecutor told jurors “no one is above the #law,” & defense said the he did not “knowingly” lie when filling out forms to purchase a weapon.
#HunterBiden had reportedly dropped off the MacBookPro at a computer repair shop in 2019 & never reclaimed it.
The shop owner [for some reason] contacted #Republicanlawmakers & #politicians to review the hundreds of thousands of emails & msgs in the laptop.
An #FBI agent testified that investigators obtained a #warrant to search the laptop’s msgs & “found evidence of addiction.” duh, he’s been VERY open about his struggles w/ [#addiction]
Prosecutors claimed they were attempting to corroborate the battles of #addiction that #HunterBiden described in his memoir w/real-time msgs in his hard drive & iCloud.
#FBI agent Erika Jensen testified that Hunter’s cloud data & laptop held msgs from 2018 which showed drug habits, using codes like “baby powder” & “chore boy” for crack cocaine.
A series of WhatsApp msgs recovered from Biden’s iCloud account were shown to the jury, & appear to show Biden arranging deliveries of drugs.
The #FBI agent said they were able to confirm that the laptop taken from the repair shop was #HunterBiden’s partly from his iCloud data, which contained an invoice from the shop [wait - an invoice for the repair was on the laptop before the work was done? Remember, he never picked it up]
In one exchange, #HunterBiden appeared to feel he’d been cheated & sent a picture of white powder on a green-colored bank or credit card. [you know you’re in deep when you photo document your illegal drugs]
Other msgs the #FBI agent said were found on the laptop appeared to show him discussing smoking crack w/a friend in Aug 2018, shortly before he did a 2-wk prgm in #rehab. #law#pillory
