On a Monday night (February 12th, 2018) episode of Tucker Carlson a democrat member of the House Intelligence committee said something interesting that almost everyone missed. Appearing on the show to joust with Tucker, HPSCI member Eric Swalwell stated: the House Intel Committee has not interviewed a single witness in over a month. [Video Here, quote @03:47] This statement is rather enlightening.
A month earlier, January 4th, 2018, an agreement was finally made between House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes and DOJ Asst. Attorney General Rod Rosenstein for complete disclosure of all unreadacted documents.....AND a list of witnesses who Nunes wanted the HPSCI to question.
[.....]
So to summarize so far: during January all the DOJ documents arrived, the HPSCI (Nunes) memo was written, released, declassified and released to the public on February 2nd, 2018 but no witnessed testified. [Nunes Memo Link]
So the question becomes:
How does the exact testimony (including quotes) of Bruce Ohr, and Bill Priestap become part of the Nunes Memo if neither Bruce Ohr or Bill Priestap was ever interviewed by the House Intelligence Committee?
[...]
Heres what is becoming transparently obvious. The fab-five are cooperating with the investigative unit of the OIG. All five of them.
The text message release was strategic. It was intended to substantiate the entire enterprise, put the small group on notice and flush out the co-conspirators. The downstream exits of Kortan, Laufman, Rybicki, McCabe et al are evidence therein.
Additionally, the OIG (Horowitz) would want to keep the testimony of Page, Strzok, Ohr, Baker and Priestap away from the Democrat politicians, well known leakers, within the House Intelligence Committee (ie. Eric Swalwell and Adam Schiff) until he was certain their usefulness as witnesses was exhausted.

Easy to despise? Come on , Man.
He is dumber than dog poop!
An utter Idiot and the perfect example of why We left our beloved Golden State, sadly.
Disagree. It’s gonna be the most beautiful thing to happen in the last 30 years.
There is something creepy about Swalwell, who practically camps out at Fox News, and is a committed Leftist.
“A real tool easy to despise.”
He’s very robotic. Doesn’t move his pasty face when he talks - like Roger Ramjet. California comes up with some doozies. For a state that’s obsessed with appearance, they elect Swalwell, Schiff, Waters?
Been sayin it for months.
All running through Sessions & Horowitz, with Mulehead sitting on the perps so they can’t squeak in public.
Nope. Going 180 degrees other direction.
I'd have to say this is pretty damn' spot on if the rest of the article is true (and it rings true to me ...)
Interesting and plausible alternative reading of the Priestap situation. BTTT.
if this is true and people are talking....maybe thats the real reason the Justice Department and RR didn’t want the Nunes Memo released......because it would have clues in it that people may be singing...
The fix was in with Sessions as AG...His choice of Rosenstein as DAG, then his recusal leaving RR and Mueller in charge of the DOJ.
We’re FUBARed folks. It’s all over but the screaming and the dying.
Rosenstein didn't want the memo released because he gets implicated in it.
Bump for later
Bitter experience has taught us all to be cynical, FR. But maybe... just maybe... this Trump fellow and the people he is working with are different. Time will tell.
But the Mueller thing sure has dragged on a long time without appearing to come up much - if anything - on “Trump collusion.” And why hasn’t Flynn been sentenced?
LS, you have been on the money with quite a bit of your analysis. Here’s hoping you are correct this time, as well.
“Someones Doing The DOJ and FBI Interrogations and Its Not Congress”
Well it sure isn’t Sessions or Faye Wray...that much we know.
Counting chickens? Im not sure I even see fertile eggs waiting to be hatched.
That is the nutshell of VDH’s most recent column at NR.
Keep in mind that Horowitz gave Holder and Soetoro a pass on Fast & Furious.

Did he have a choice ??
They are sat down, told to not do anything, say anything or discuss anything UNTIL they get an attorney. At which time, the attorney is handed a letter from the investigating unit. That letter says in essence, this is how screwed you are. If you want to be less screwed you will sign this letter of cooperation and assist us. When we dont need you, you sit there. When we do we will call you and you will provide what we need. Any deviation from this agreement lands you in jail for the full term.
