Deep State Treasury Leaker Arrested
Conservative Treehouse ^ | 17 Oct 2018 | Sundance

Posted on 10/17/2018 1:24:57 PM PDT by BeauBo

You might remember back in May 2018 when sketchy porn lawyer Michael Avenetti was releasing U.S. Treasury notifications on Michael Cohen received from an unknown source within the Treasury Department. You might also remember when New Yorker’s Ronan Farrow wrote a sympathetic article after talking to the leaking treasury official. As a result the Treasury Inspector General began an investigation. Today, a U.S. Treasury employee named Natalie Mayflower Sours-Edwards was arrested and charged with leaking to numerous reporters multiple financial reports about suspicious financial transactions related to: Paul Manafort, Richard Gates, Maria Butina, and others.

Also from above link:

Court papers also list another FinCEN employee as a co-conspirator, noting that this person exchanged more than 300 messages with the reporter via an encrypted messaging application. This person has not been charged and was not named in the court papers, and was identified only as an associate director at FinCEN to whom Edwards reported.
According to court papers, federal investigators obtained a court order to monitor the calls to and from the associate director’s personal cellphone, and that monitoring captured the frequency of contacts with the reporter via the encrypted messaging application. Court papers do not detail the contents of those messages.

“According to court papers, federal investigators obtained a court order to monitor the calls to and from the associate director’s personal cellphone, and that monitoring captured the frequency of contacts with the reporter”

So busted.

Clearly, the nets have been out for a while - a professional job.

According to her linked in [as reported by Redstate], Sours-Edwards is a Native American. Cue Fauxcahontas.

DUmmie FUnnies ^ | February 20, 2008 | DUmmies and PJ-Comix
It’s a sad day. One of the great journalistic giants of our time, Jason Leopold, is splitting the scene. According to an e-mail from former fashion photographer and now TruthOut publisher, Marc Ash, as you can see in this DUmmie THREAD, Jason Leopold has left his publication. In case you are unfamiliar with Leopold, he teamed up with TruthOut columnist William Rivers Pitt to promote the story about Karl Rove having already been indicted by Patrick Fitzgerald on May 12, 2006. The team of Leopold and Lib are still waiting for the magical 24 business hours to pass for...

Discredited ‘Journalist’ Jason Leopold Pesters Valerie Plame with Karl Rove Fixation
NewsBusters ^ | November 19, 2007 | P.J. Gladnick
What do you do when your heavily hyped book plummets from number 6 on the New York Times bestseller list to a mere 299 on Amazon.com in just a matter of a few weeks? If you’re Valerie Plame, you turn to discredited “journalist” Jason Leopold for self-hype help as you can see in this video. Howard Kurtz has written of Leopold’s dubious background in a March 9, 2005 Washington Post article: Jason Leopold got a journalistic black eye three years ago when Salon retracted a story the freelancer had written about a Bush administration official, saying it could not authenticate

The Butina case this leaker’s involved in is beginning to smell like Fitzmas- the hoax story of Karl Rove’s “indictment” in the Scooter Libby case.

Prosecutors reverse claim that accused Russian agent traded sex for political access
The Hill ^ | 09/08/18 | John Bowden
Prosecutors say they were “mistaken” about the meaning of text messages sent by Maria Butina, a Russian woman accused of acting as an unregistered agent of the Russian government and a Republican operative, that purported to show Butina offering sex in exchange for political access. The acknowledgement by U.S. prosecutors came in court filings late Friday, CNN reported. The government, in July, claimed in a court filing that Butina offered “sex in exchange for a position within a special interest organization.” Prosecutors, however, conceded on Friday that they misunderstood text messages sent by Butina, which were a significant part of...

One of the officials was, according to Reuters, a Treasury official [an undersecretary] by the name of Nathan Sheets.
