Schiff, railing on WH for not inviting Dems to meeting with DOJ/FBI on confidential source, tells me it appears Nunes resisted having a briefing with Dems in the room. He said he reached out to DOJ/ODNI, and on staff level, "they're as much in the dark as we are" about meeting.

Schiff added: “If it’s a meeting designed to make any decisions, it needs to be bipartisan ... this is the point where the department needs to stand up to this president” and demand a bipartisan meeting.

As I was smoking on my balcony, it dawn on me that Hillary must be a hella criminal if she can delete 30,000 emails and get no criminal charges but Trump who is an alleged billionaire and his personal "fixer" lawyer dont/didnt have the resources to completely scrub their computers and electronic devices :jbhmm:

Think about the effect Trump will have on this nation for the next 10-40 years. Trump has elected the most federal judges than any modern President and it is very possible that Trump could place another 2 Supreme Court judges within the next two years. You know he will go the extreme hard right direction for that decision.

But her emmailllllssssss:usure:

BTW Fukk Hoteps.

Smart brehs, you think Mueller even gives a shyt to talk to Trump?

I feel like they just letting the story and "negotiations" ride as a distraction

Sure itd be easier if he came in and lied under oath but at this point do they need it?

Everything we find out that gets this thread posting gifs and has Fox News doing random ass segments as distractions... I assume Mueller had that info six months ago.

Mueller is past Trump, his investigation at this point is more about international players, conspiracies against this country and whatever else he can get someone to cop to.

This entire "We'll tell you what you can and can't ask our client..." game is keeping Trump occupied.

Israeli Intelligence Company Formed Venture With Trump Campaign Firm Cambridge Analytica

Israeli Intelligence Company Formed Venture With Trump Campaign Firm Cambridge Analytica
Psy-Group is owned by entrepreneur Joel Zamel, who has been questioned by special-counsel investigators

WASHINGTON—A company owned by Joel Zamel, an Israeli entrepreneur whose work has drawn the scrutiny of special counsel Robert Mueller, formed a strategic partnership with a data firm for President Donald Trump’s campaign in a joint bid to win business from the U.S. government and other clients after the 2016 election, according to people familiar with the matter.

The Psy-Group, one of Mr. Zamel’s firms, signed a memorandum of understanding with Cambridge Analytica LLC, these people said, a digital media firm that helped propel Mr. Trump to the presidency. Facebook Inc. in March suspended Cambridge over allegations that it improperly harvested the data of millions of Facebook users, accusations that in part led to the firm’s closure earlier this month.


The Dec. 14, 2016 memorandum, as described to The Wall Street Journal, outlines a partnership whereby the two firms could cooperate on a case-by-case basis to provide intelligence and social-media services, or pitch business to an array of clients.

A person familiar with the work of Psy Group, a private intelligence firm, said the partnership was intended in part to help win government contracts
—something that Cambridge and its parent company, SCL Group, were aggressively seeking to do as their allies in the Trump administration took power, according to people familiar with the efforts.

The existence of the memorandum of agreement is an example of how the president’s allies sought to gain entry and influence in Washington after the election.

SCL Group won a $500,000 contract from the State Department starting in February 2017 aimed at providing “target audience research,” according to federal records. No government contracts have been awarded to the Psy-Group, according to public records, though not all government contracts—for example, in the arena of intelligence and foreign policy—are publicly disclosed.

A spokesman for SCL and for Cambridge Analytica didn’t respond to requests for comment.

Marc Mukasey, a lawyer for Mr. Zamel, said his client “had nothing to do with Cambridge Analytica.” He has previously said investigators have told him Mr. Zamel isn’t a target of the Mueller investigation. A person familiar with the memo between Cambridge and Psy-Group, which was first reported by Bloomberg, said it was signed without Mr. Zamel’s involvement. It was unclear whether Mr. Zamel was aware of the deal at the time it was reached.

Mr. Zamel has met with Mr. Mueller’s investigators, who appear to have expanded their inquiries to questions about the influence of a Gulf monarchy during the 2016 election, the Journal has previously reported. Mr. Mueller is investigating whether Trump associates colluded with Russia in the 2016 U.S. election. Mr. Trump denies colluding with Russia, and Moscow denies that it meddled in the election.

In the months before the 2016 election, Mr. Zamel met with Donald Trump Jr. , Mr. Trump’s eldest son, at Trump Tower along with George Nader, a top adviser to the crown prince of the United Arab Emirates, to discuss an offer from Mr. Zamel and Mr. Nader to help boost the campaign, the Journal has previously reported. Mr. Zamel is said to be close to top officials in the U.A.E. The U.A.E. has been engaged in a costly campaign, in conjunction with its ally Saudi Arabia, to isolate its regional rival Qatar, and has ramped up its lobbying in the U.S. over the past year to win the Trump administration’s backing for its efforts.

Cambridge Analytica earlier this month announced it was shutting down its operations, along with its U.S. and U.K. affiliates SCL Group and SCL Elections. The firm is liquidating its assets, an administrator for the firm said Tuesday.

Cambridge Analytica faced mounting legal fees in the U.K.’s investigation of the Facebook allegations and was rapidly losing clients, according to people familiar with the matter. In March, it suspended its chief executive, Alexander Nix, after undercover journalists at British broadcaster Channel 4 released a video that depicted him describing campaign tactics he said the company had used, among them entrapping political opponents with bribes and sex.

In the video, Mr. Nix said Cambridge Analytica used Israeli companies in its campaign efforts. “We use some British companies, we use some Israeli companies,” he said. “From Israel. Very effective in intelligence gathering.”

Mr. Nix has said he regretted his role in the video, and Cambridge Analytica has said it didn’t use the tactics he described.

One person familiar with the work of both firms said Mr. Nix in the video appeared to be referring to Psy-Group, which does work that tracks closely with Mr. Nix’s description. The intelligence firm’s website says the company’s motto is “shape reality.” According to Psy-Group’s marketing materials, which the Journal reviewed, the firm offered clients an array of services—including “honey traps,” a term used by spy agencies for an intelligence-gathering tactic using romantic or sexual relationships to extract information.
