Cates’ the night before Horowitz prediction. (If anyone wants on/off my twitter ping list, freepmail me.)
https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1203828736594006016.html
My prediction thread the night before Horowitzmas:
1) The report proves unverified Steele Dossier allegations were used to get the FISA warrant on Carter Page, blowing up 2 years worth of DNC Media & Democrat’s strident denials it was.
2) Peter Strzok was the lead agent in the case, the one who’s name has been redacted all this time.
So.
Not only was the LEAD AGENT in the PERJURY case against Flynn investigated & then FIRED from the FBI for misconduct, he’s also the lead agent in the Page investigation.
3) There **will** be a section of the report dealing with the fascinatingly strange episode in which the FBI “fake fired” Christopher Steele of Fusion GPS but then was found to have created a secret backchannel thru Bruce Ohr to continue to use his propaganda in their work.
4) This report fully pulls Stefan Halper out of the shadows into the light as very likely being the actual SOURCE of many of Steele’s Trump/Russia allegations, as well as of the General Flynn/Russia allegations used to target Flynn as a supposed Russian agent.
5) Steele was not the only Hillary Clinton/DNC operative giving fake Trump/Russia stories to the FBI. There were others, such as Perkins Coie lawyer Michael Sussmann, who went to the FBI with the story of the Trump Tower/Alfa bank servers being linked.
6) The report will explain why the FISA renewal that Rod Rosenstein reviewed, was briefed about, and then signed off on, is significantly different from the one being reported on in the media.
7) Horowitz will detail at length how “salacious & unverfied” allegations” from the Steele Dossier were fraudulently presented to the Court as if they were ***verified intelligence*** information from adequate sources [certainly not Clinton’s paid political flacks!]
8) At some point in this report, Horowitz will deal with the crucial issue of the FBI’s continuing to use Steele’s fake Trump/Russia collusion info in their investigations ***while they knew*** or ***after they became aware*** he was leaking this same stuff to news media outlets.
9) Verification procedures WERE NOT FOLLOWED in the Carter Page warrant process. Exculpatory evidence about the targets and about the CHS/s providing this Trump/Russia collusion info was deliberately withheld from the Court.
Horowitz will talk about this at length.
10) The final thing: To get this warrant the FBI had to show sufficient evidence to convince the FISA Court there was a counterintelligence need to place Carter Page under surveillance.
At last, Horowitz will specifically lay out what that evidence was & let us see it.
This is important because whatever it was the FBI showed the Court to ‘prove’ there was good and solid evidence Carter Page was acting as a Russian agent inside the Trump campaign, neither he or ANYBODY ELSE was ever charged with being Russian agents or with collusion.
Now step back and see the big picture. A ***HOAX*** was perpetrated on the FISA Court to get approval to SPY ON A PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN for political purposes.
Horowitz’s job is to discover EXACTLY how this happened and to prevent it’s EVER happening again.
His job is not Barr’s job. His job is not Durham’s job.
His job is to investigate HOW the fraud was perpetrated, who was responsible, what methods they used to circumvent all the safeguards and regulations that had been put into effect in the past specifically to PREVENT this.
This is why that night back in March 2017 when Devin Nunes called that press conference and he came out to face the cameras, he looked like he had JUST HAD THE FRIGHT OF HIS ENTIRE LIFE, like he had just seen a particularly scary ghost.
People had been abusing FISA intel collections to unmask the electronic comms of Trump transition team memers, transcribe them, put them in reports, and then circulating these reports at the highest level of the Obama administration.
To give a PLAUSIBLE COVER for this politically motivated activity, Democrats yelled RUSSIA RUSSIA RUSSIA as often and as loudly as they could.
And then a 2 1/2 year long Mueller investigation did...what?
What did it do, anybody remember?
Oh come on people, this is not HARD.
WHAT was the ultimate CONCLUSION of Robert Mueller’s Special Counsel’s office after it’s team of THIRTEEN CRACK ANGRY DEMOCRATIC BLOODHOUND PROSECUTORS/INVESTIGATORS finished a 2 1/2 year long investigation into TRUMP/RUSSIA COLLUSION?
For 2 1/2 years, WHO LOOKED HIGH for Trump/Russia Election Collusion?!
Who LOOKED LOW for it?
Who HUNTED BEHIND EVERY TREE, ROCK AND BUSH looking for it?
Who got SO DESPERATE to find it, they went digging through Fred Trump’s Estate Taxes?
WHO??!!!!
THIS GUY.
THIS GUY LOOKED FOR 2 1/2 YEARS AND SPENT $35 MILLION TAX PAYER DOLLARS DOING EVERY SINGLE THING WITHIN THE POWER OF MORTAL MAN TO FIND TRUMP/RUSSIA ELECTION COLLUSION.
And he FAILED.
Because it DOESN’T EXIST.

And because so many people spend all their time listening to fear porn peddlers they MISSED ***why*** Horowitz had to go back and INVESTIGATE how that FISA warrant on Carter Page got approved.
Because of a HOAX.
And the Mueller Special Counsel proved for all time that Trump/Russia Election Collusion was always a wacky conspiracy theory, there was NEVER any evidence it was REAL, and now Horowitz, Barr & Durham have the job of holding people accountable for the FRAUD they perpetrated.
The Mueller Special Counsel....
[you may want to zoom in on this with a close up.....]
STRIPPED AWAY THE COVER STORY FOR THE SPYING ON THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN.
It stripped it away for ALL TIME.
Long before Mueller shut down his SC’s office & announced his non-findings on Trump/Russia collusion, Rosenstein & Sessions **already knew** he wasn’t going to find anything.
And so did Horowitz, which is why he started his FISA review when Mueller still had a year left to go.
Horowitz knew by March 28, 2018 - and so did Sessions- that a massive FRAUD had been carried out to fool the FISA Court into granting a warrant based on fake information.
Once you realize the COVER STORY provided by former federal officials to justify their spying on a presidential campaign during an election is a FRAUD, what are you going to be forced to conclude?
You’re going to be forced to conclude that if the justification these former federal officials proffered to you for this spying is based on a HOAX, you need to INVESTIGATE and discover what the REAL REASON for the spying was, won’t you?
And people still think this guy was wasting his time the 2 years he was in charge of the DOJ, identifying the SpyGate plotters, isolating/removing them, plugging all the leaks and starting highly sensitive investigations.
100% wrong.
[Image of Sessions]
Corrupt federal officials turned the powers of the law enforcement & intelligence agencies to their own politically motivated purposes.
Sessions was tasked with exposing this.
But he & Trump did it THEIR WAY.
Not your way.
THEIR WAY.
The way Trump and his team went about this involves airtight operational security, cover stories and FAKE LEAKS.
Most people NEVER FIGURED OUT what Trump used Rosenstein to turn the Mueller Special Counsel investigation into.
Whatever the SPYGATE PLOTTERS thought Mueller was gonna end up doing, what Mueller ended up **actually** doing was stripping away the hoax justification these former federal officials proffered the FISA Court, the media & the public for all that SPYING ON TRUMP they were doing.
And Horowitz was already waiting to move in and investigate that hoax perpetrated on the FISA Court a year before Mueller wrapped it up.
Gee, imagine that.
I’m turning in early.
I’m going to be fresh to read a report where I already know about 75-80% of what’s in it. Because I did the research and the digging. It’s the OTHER 20-25% I can’t wait to read.

Did Not Stake My Credibility On Anonymous Ghosts!
@drawandstrike
Sunday is brought to you by........the number ONE!
ONE!
ONE LAST EXCITING DAY FOR THE FAKE NEWS MEDIA TO USE COWARDLY ANONYMOUS SOURCES FOR THEIR STORIES ON THE INSPECTOR GENERAL’S FISA REPORT!
AAAAAH HAAAA HAAAAA HAAAAAAAAAH!
[sound of thunder!]
ADDENDUM:
I almost forgot!
Here’s the OFFICIAL DOJ Office of the Inspector General website page where they put up their reports related to the FBI when they are publicly released:
oig.justice.gov/reports/fbi.htm
Yes, THAT webpage is where the FISA report is going to show up when they publicly release it.
It is inconceivable that a FISA application left the WH to bug a republican candidate for president and Obama didn’t approve it. No WH staffer would have done that without Obama’s approval. That makes Clinton and Obama both guilty of sedition as leaders of a coup d’tat . There were 3-4 renewals of the warrants increasing the likelihood Obama was involved.
Thanks, LJ!
++++!
Thanks for bringing this over to us. OUTSTANDING thread.
I completely agree with Cates. (Not hard to do; he is rarely wrong. His research is thorough.)
At this point, I just wonder how much of the report will be redacted. Are we gonna see it all? That would be great. If not, I’ve seen enough of the plan to appreciate that there’s a good reason.
Amazing.
maybe this time tomorrow night we will know what color hats they all are wearing!!!!!
