Saw a chart referring to this.

“Please see latest to include a column regarding what the Director [Comey]received from Senator Mccain. A pattern also appears to be forming as some reports were only provided to the FBl... “

I hate to indulge in hope porn but is it possible DOJ was waiting for this before starting the indictment process? Nothing would be make me happier than than eating Bondi served crow morning, noon and night.

Why would a public data drop be required before starting an indictment process?

It looks like Steele was a man of many masters... and that bastard Mueller... he was trying to build a narrative and provide himself and offramp instead of burning the agents... what a bunch of compromised psychopaths we had in the @FBI.

Seems too good for the bad guys....

From perplexity ai:

Key Observations from Crossfire Hurricane Documents

The Crossfire Hurricane investigation, which examined potential links between the Trump campaign and Russian interference in the 2016 U.S. election, has been widely scrutinized. Based on available summaries and analyses, here are the key observations and conclusions:

1. Investigation’s Origins
Legitimacy of Opening: The investigation was initiated in July 2016 after the FBI received credible information from a foreign government about George Papadopoulos, a Trump campaign advisor, who allegedly had prior knowledge of Russia’s possession of damaging information on Hillary Clinton.

The Inspector General (IG) found that the investigation was opened with adequate factual predication and complied with FBI policies. There was no evidence of political bias or improper motivation in the decision to open the case.

2. Use of the Steele Dossier
The controversial Steele Dossier, funded by opposition research, played no role in initiating the investigation but was later used to support FISA applications for surveillance on Carter Page.

The dossier’s reliability was questioned as parts of it were unverified or inaccurate, leading to criticisms of its use in obtaining FISA warrants.

3. Procedural Errors
FISA Application Issues: The IG report identified significant errors and omissions in FISA applications targeting Carter Page:

Exculpatory evidence was excluded.

Heavy reliance was placed on unverified claims from the Steele Dossier.

These errors raised concerns about oversight and accountability within the FBI.

Despite these failures, there was no evidence that these errors were driven by political bias.

4. Political Bias Allegations
While some FBI agents involved in the investigation exchanged politically charged messages (e.g., Peter Strzok and Lisa Page), the IG concluded that these did not influence investigative decisions.

The report found no documentary or testimonial evidence suggesting political bias influenced the opening or conduct of Crossfire Hurricane.

5. Contacts Between Trump Campaign and Russia
The investigation uncovered multiple contacts between Trump campaign officials and Russian operatives:

Paul Manafort shared polling data with a Russian intelligence-linked individual.

Michael Flynn discussed U.S. sanctions with Russia’s ambassador.

George Papadopoulos communicated with intermediaries offering “dirt” on Hillary Clinton.

However, these findings did not establish a criminal conspiracy between the Trump campaign and Russia.

6. Missing Binder and Declassification Controversy
A binder containing sensitive intelligence related to Crossfire Hurricane was declassified by President Trump but later went missing at the end of his presidency. This raised concerns about potential exposure of classified methods and sources.

Efforts to release declassified materials have been hindered by privacy concerns and national security risks.

7. Broader Implications
The investigation highlighted systemic issues within the FBI, particularly regarding oversight of sensitive investigations like those involving FISA applications.

Critics argue that the procedural failures undermine public trust in federal law enforcement, while supporters maintain that investigating potential foreign interference was necessary.

Conclusions
Legitimate Basis: Crossfire Hurricane had a valid basis for initiation but suffered from significant procedural flaws during its execution.

No Political Bias Found: Despite allegations, there was no evidence that political bias influenced key decisions.

Systemic Failures: Errors in FISA applications and oversight reflect broader issues within FBI processes.

Continued Debate: The findings remain politically charged, with interpretations often shaped by partisan perspectives.

The investigation underscores the challenges of balancing national security concerns with procedural rigor and public accountability.

I challenged the Grok app to come up with more information then just hearing about the noise on X. She’s not ready to give any more information. I told her she’s not up-to-date. Maybe I should get a refund on my $30.
