The Twitter link above reveals an email from a New York Times reporter named Mark Mazzetti to lawyers at Covington & Burling. Mazzetti is asking for a meeting with General Mike Flynn’s attorneys to discuss what the New York Times had just discovered, that Joe Pientka told IG Horowitz that Andrew McCabe ordered him to to alter the FD-302 report originally filed in the Flynn case.
The following appears to be the case:
1) Covington & Burling attorneys did not share any of this information with Flynn or the court and should face disbarment.
2) It appears this revelation from Pientka was either redacted in the Horowitz report and/or Horwitz never told anybody about it and it was found in the evidence the US Attorney assigned by Bill Barr to look at the case stumbled across.
3) The New York Times, “the paper of record”, buried the fact that a crime has been committed by McCabe by never reporting it.
4) If this is the reason that Christopher Ray fired Andrew McCabe, It means that Christopher Wray concealed the information while continuing to prosecute General Flynn for a crime he didn’t commit.
One of the implications is, of course, that they now have at least one felony on Andrew McCabe and, hopefully, he will start singing like a bird when presented with the fact he’s going to jail without his cooperation on the whole sordid mess. After all, didn’t Andrew McCabe famously state (to paraphrase) that if he “was going down, everybody else was going down with him”?
And what about Wray? If he was aware of this fact and did not advise the court as well as Flynn’s lawyers, is he also not criminally liable
If these FD-302 forms were never used to prosecute anyone, then I'm not sure how any of these revelations even matter right now.
