More unredactions from Mueller report about IRA document that directly discussed undermining Clinton in the 2016 election; it notes that "all primaries are purchasable" pic.twitter.com/Ialtu64ZBP
Here's the entire document showing the newly unredacted redactions from the Mueller report in the left column, in case you want to see them yourself: https://t.co/8gQQ7HIcqB
Click to read the whole thread - deadly. The Reality Winner note was one surprise for me - she really did a service to us at great cost to herself - the powers that be were having a much easier time hiding things without her leak.
Yet the Clinton stuff and divisive targeted partisan social media attacks are exactly the suspected/known fuckery that Barr publicly grandstanded on to cheerlead the right/GOP in pretending nothing was found re: Russian attacks, that it was all a liberal fantasy.

In "Where Law Ends," Andrew Weissmann, a top prosecutor on Robert Mueller's team, draws an affectionate portrait of his old boss—but begrudgingly admits that the Russia investigation's "extreme fairness" doomed it, George Packer writes. https://t.co/hbs16GRk3L
Absolutely nothing about the Oracle/TikTok deal makes sense, UNLESS you view it through the lens of pure cronyism and corruption. Then it makes perfect sense, and should have everyone furious. https://t.co/rENEOt7zxS
In an “unprecedented” move, in the words of one former CIA lawyer, Haspel last year, around the time of impeachment, tasked CIA’s general counsel Courtney Elwood with reviewing virtually every product that comes out of Russia House before it goes to the White House.
If I were Eric's attorney I would suggest that he become just like his Saturday Night Live character and say he doesn't know nothing bout no real estate and nothing bout no taxes...
The simple version: Putin wanted to reassert control over the Ukrainian energy market at a time he was about to begin illegally aiding Trump's re-election; Trump engineered Putin reasserting that control; Putin responded by ramping up efforts to aid Trump.
1) DOJ never publicly confirms a criminal investigation, other than in extremely rare, emergency situations. It's a written rule (in the Justice Manual) and an unwritten norm that anybody who has ever worked a day on the line knows (that would *not* include Barr, I suppose)
Ironically, Jacob Wohl and Jack Burkman are facing a real FBI investigation just days after staging a fake, unrelated FBI raid on Burkman's house for media attention. https://t.co/wbG4W8ZrNV

While Bill Barr was rebuked in June by more than 1,250 former employees of the Department of Justice, this week marked the first time a sitting federal prosecutor directly and explicitly called out U.S. Attorney General for having intentionally turned the department into a political tool of the Trump administration.
In a letter published in the Boston Globe on Thursday, Assistant U.S. Attorney for the District of Massachusetts James D. Herbert derided Barr’s second tenure as head of the DOJ, saying that his conduct in office “should concern all citizens.”
“While I am a federal prosecutor, I am writing to express my own views, clearly not those of the department, on a matter that should concern all citizens: the unprecedented politicization of the office of the attorney general,” Herbert wrote. “The attorney general acts as though his job is to serve only the political interests of Donald J.Trump. This is a dangerous abuse of power.”
Herbert said that he was “compelled to speak out” about Barr after hearing the attorney general’s controversial comments at Hillsdale College earlier this month. [....]
