Source: Nellie Ohr Is Refusing To Appear For Congressional Deposition [tomorrow]
Daily Caller ^

Posted on 09/20/2018 8:54:51 AM PDT by Bigtigermike

Nellie Ohr, the wife of Justice Department official Bruce Ohr, is refusing to appear before Congress for a closed-door hearing that was scheduled to take place this Friday, sources tell The Daily Caller News Foundation.

Ohr, who worked for Fusion GPS, the firm behind the Steele dossier, was scheduled to appear for interviews during a joint session with the House Judiciary and House Oversight & Government Reform committees. But two congressional sources said that she is not cooperating with the requests and will have to be subpoenaed to compel her appearance.

[...]

The sources also said that former FBI general counsel James Baker is not cooperating with the committees’ request for an interview.

Bruce Ohr testified that his wife began working at Fusion GPS in November 2015, which was far earlier than had been previously revealed or known.

That date should set off alarms. (See this excellent article by Jeff Carlson, who has established himself as an investigative superstar, doing the work the media pretends they do: Epoch Times article: 2015 Employment of Nellie Ohr by Fusion GPS Raises New Questions

No wonder she doesn't want to talk. She may be a key to a lot of er..."things".

Here is an excerpt from Jeff Carlson's article:

"...The Mueller team has known of Ohr’s involvement with the Steele dossier from the start of their formal investigation.

These events are likely intertwined. To understand why, we need to revisit an April 26, 2017, unsealed FISA court ruling that was declassified by Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats.

There is a staggering amount of information contained within the ruling, including these two disclosures:

“NSA estimates that approximately 85 percent of those queries, representing [Redacted] queries conducted by approximately [Redacted] targeted offices, were not compliant with the applicable minimization procedures.”

“The FBI had disclosed raw FISA information, including but not limited to Section 702-acquired information, to a [Redacted] … is largely staffed by private contractors … the [Redacted] contractors had access to raw FISA information that went well beyond what was necessary to respond to the FBI’s requests.”

The court said these practices had been going on since at least November 2015 and noted that “there is no apparent reason to believe the November 2015–April 2016 period coincided with an unusually high error rate...”

Now, knowing that, check out this excerpt below from the FISA Court report itself when it was notified of the above irregularities (a graphic I put together):

In summary, the question needs to be asked of Nellie Ohr, who is a Russian language specialist...just the type of person the FBI contracted with to run queries in the NSA database and translate them:

"Mrs. Ohr, were you doing any contract work for the FBI during the period November 2015 to the termination of your employment there that involved metadata queries into the NSA database?

If the answer is yes...she is likely one of those contractors who, 85% of the time were running unauthorized queries after their authorized work was done whose access was terminated by Admiral Michael Rogers.

And it begs the further question if it can be determined she WAS one of them: What queries did she run, and what did she do with the results of those queries?

Hmmmmm?

Indeed. She may have done just that. Officially, Michael Steele had said in his testimony that an ex-Russian spy living in the US had provided much of the material, IIRC.

"But two congressional sources said that she is not cooperating with the requests and will have to be subpoenaed to compel her appearance."

Flipping nimrods. Don't talk about it, DO IT!

Did Mueller send smoke signals before going into Manafort's house? No. Element of surprise -- doesn't give the target time to prepare, collaborate on stories/alibis, etc.

Learn to play the game, dammit!!!!!

Not me...the people who pull these types of things together are people like Jeff Carlson, Sara Carter, Chuck Ross, Paul Sperry, Andrew McCarthy, and John Solomon.

These people are involved in disseminating real knowledge with valuable context.

If the media had any shame, they would feel it seeing these people listed above doing the work the media SHOULD be doing.

Instead, the media are serving up Propaganda for the Democrat Party. It is why they are so bugged out at the declassification Trump is now demanding.

Indeed, as I said in my post, she is a Russian Language Specialist, but I don’t think she is the one being referenced unless she had served as a Russian spy and we don’t know it!

Hadn’t thought of that...:)

Thanks for your excellent comment, and info. Throw Andrew Weissmann into the mix too since he was with the DOJ, and then later joined Mueller’s team. Bruce Our kept him informed of the info he was getting from Steele, and Mueller’s team has had the info about Ohr’s unethical communications with Steele from the beginning of their investigation. Weissmann should be subpoenaed to testify to Congress. I can’t believe that these people are still walking around, drawing paychecks at taxpayers expense.

Never mind being a key part of the team (Mueller's) that is (or should be) investigating his own lawlessness. Mind boggling, isn't it?

Nonetheless, good job putting the info out there in a thread.

Everyone isn’t able to read every thread. That’s why multiple posts are necessary, sometimes.

I’ve put stuff out for years and people haven’t seen it before until last week. Our world is an avalanche of information. So it’s difficult some times to get a comprehensive summary of things.

Just another reason Democrats hate FreeRepublic.

Well, doesn’t EVERYONE reaching that point in their lives, (especially those as BUSY as her) get their ham radio license?

As another Freeper said, when you reach sixty, you do those things...Yoga, Pilates...Ham Radio.

Thank you, SaveFerris.

(I still can’t read your handle without thinking of a a kid in a high school hallway carrying a can with a coin slot in the top...:)

And that’s not a bad thing!

Was watching TV maybe a couple of years ago.

Evangelist (that I like) says someone once approached him at a conference or a church and said “What is your theological position on makeup?”

He said “I’M ALL FOR IT! SOMETIMES, THE MORE THE BETTER!”

I was LOL’ing
