I have a question, hopefully I can express it clearly. I hope others can clarify this.
Did Mueller’s investigation stop Horowitz, or anyone else, from accessing any information? I heard that today and had never run across that before, or didn’t understand. I never thought that “BLOCKADE” meant Horowitz and/or others could not access information.
And since 3/4 of the redactions in Mueller’s (Weissman’s?) report are because of ongoing investigations (not Mueller’s, other), that would mean to my simple mind that info obtained was given to other people to investigate. So how does that go along with no sharing of info?
And Flynn was interview 19 times, about “other” investigations. Was this shared or not, sounded as though it was.
I am confused about the real meaning of “BLOCKADE” and the sharing/not sharing of info.
I noted this before - blockade was 2 directions. As you note IG was actually fed by Mule OP. Strzok & Page texts, etc.
Rosenstein was part of the BLOCKADE as well, remember at one point congress spoke of impeaching [RR] cause he kept blocking the release of documents the house judiciary had requested.
In the 178-page court document, DOJ officials said they had “determined that disclosure of redacted information in the Carter Page FISA documents could reasonably be expected to interfere with the pending investigation into Russian election interference.”
That rationale has heightened suspicions among congressional investigators that the special counsel is being used to prevent the disclosure of possible FBI abuses and crimes committed during the Russia probe. Opened by the FBI in July 2016, the Russia investigation was taken over by Mueller when Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein appointed him special counsel in 2017.
Rosenstein’s leverage may explain why Trump has resisted the calls of congressional Republicans and other allies who believe he can clear his name by unveiling evidence of abuses and possible crimes committed during the Russia probe.
