I'm wondering when it first appeared in the PDB, the one Trump never reads, but I'll bet Pence does and perhaps Mark Meadows. How long did they know? Weeks, perhaps months of inaction and secrecy while America was wide open to a kick in the nuts?Maybe they got upset the Democrats informed the public on the hack?
Biden team expresses concern over 'abrupt halt' in cooperation with Pentagon
President-elect Joe Biden’s transition team expressed concern Friday about what it described as an “abrupt halt” in cooperation with the Defense Department.
The Pentagon had said it was rescheduling meetings with the transition team originally planned for Friday until after the new year, but insisted the change was part of a “mutually agreed” pause for the holiday season.
“Our agency review teams continue making progress on a shortened timeline, and we’ve benefited from constructive cooperation within many departments and agencies, but we have met isolated resistance in some corners, including from political appointees within the Department of Defense,” Biden transition executive director Yohannes Abraham said in a briefing Friday.
“We were concerned to learn this week about an abrupt halt in the already limited cooperation there, and as indicated by DOD earlier today, we expect that decision will be reversed,” Abraham continued.
“Let me be clear: there was no mutually agreed upon holiday break,” Abraham added later. “In fact, we think it's important that briefings and other engagements continue during this period, as there's no time to spare.”

Pence prepares to oversee Trump’s loss — and then leave town
As vice president, Pence has the awkward but unavoidable duty of presiding over the session of Congress that will formalize Biden’s Electoral College victory — a development that is likely to expose him and other Republicans to the wrath of GOP voters who believe President Donald Trump’s false claim that the election was stolen from him.
But Pence could dodge their ire by leaving Washington immediately for the Middle East and Europe. According to three U.S. officials familiar with the planning, the vice president is eyeing a foreign trip that would take him overseas for nearly a week, starting on Jan. 6.
Though Pence aides declined to confirm details of the trip, which remains tentative, a U.S. government document seen by POLITICO shows the vice president is due to travel to Bahrain, Israel and Poland, with the possibility of more stops being added. A pre-advance team of Pence aides and other U.S. officials left earlier this week to visit the planned stops in preparation for the multicountry tour, which would be Pence’s first trip abroad since last January, when he traveled to Rome and Jerusalem on a whirlwind two-day sojourn.
\
n the surface, the trip is part of a push to underscore the Trump administration’s role in brokering a series of diplomatic agreements to normalize relations between Israel and a handful of Arab countries, including Bahrain. But for Pence, visiting these countries is also a way to bolster already-strong credentials with the Christian right, which strongly supports Israel. And it allows Pence — once again — to put distance between himself and Trump’s complaints about the election outcome that are likely to intensify after Congress affirms Biden’s win.

Pence prepares to oversee Trump’s loss — and then leave town
It’s a tactic Pence has used in recent weeks: stay out of the spotlight and insulate himself from his boss’s election-fraud crusade, while still bolstering his own credentials.

Sounds like something the FBI will be interested in, in 2021, nailing Mitch's ass will be a priority for some people, he's second only to Donald on the target list and there will be one. I hope the new AG brings back 3 or 4 thousand recently retired agents to handle all the required investigations, the cream of the retired or forced out crop, many will be eager to serve and will like the extra cash on top of their pensions, money very well spent.BUSTED?

If they lose Georgia I would expect a half dozen sitting republican senators minimum will go down eventually for corruption. Someone is going to be playing hardball with them and the ball will be made of steel. If the democrats win the senate it and the DOJ will be the busiest branches of government for several years. Special independent councils and presidential crimes commissions will be busy too. I wouldn't be surprised to see the entire Trump cabinet and most of the high level staffers doing long prison stretches before this shit is done. They are gonna run out of citizens in Washington and Virginia to sit on the hundred or more grand juries and perhaps thousands of criminal trials.
Treason, sedition, making war on the constitution and democracy, make all the difference, the conservatives on the SCOTUS have no political home, it was burned to the ground before their very eyes.

Guess who is going to FREAK?
AG Barr: No CIA Misconduct With Trump-Russia
The CIA did not act improperly regarding alleged ties between President Donald Trump's campaign and Russia, outgoing Attorney General William Barr said.
In an interview with The Wall Street Journal posted Friday, Barr said he had doubts early on about the agency's conduct. He suspected the CIA was spying on the Trump campaign before the origin of the FBI's Crossfire Hurricane investigation into the alleged dealings with Russia.
However, Barr said he concluded the CIA "stayed in its lane" before appointing U.S. Attorney John Durham as special counsel in October to investigate the Crossfire Hurricane probe.
Barr said he did not "see any sign of improper CIA activity" or "foreign government activity before July 2016."
President Trump and his supporters have accused top Obama administration officials, including the CIA, of trying to sabotage his candidacy in 2016 and then his presidency.
In March 2019, the president tweeted: "'New evidence that the Obama era team of the FBI, DOJ & CIA were working together to Spy on (and take out) President Trump, all the way back in 2015.' A transcript of [former FBI agent] Peter Strzok's testimony is devastating. Hopefully the Mueller Report will be covering this."
Many Democrats and other officials have claimed President Trump and his backers were trying to denigrate special counsel Robert Mueller, whose investigation succeeded Crossfire Hurricane and did not find any criminal conspiracy between the Trump campaign and Russia.
Barr said Durham's team is focused on "the conduct of Crossfire Hurricane, the small group at the FBI that was most involved in that," and "the activities of certain private actors."
Former CIA Director John Brennan was interviewed for eight hours in August by Durham’s team. Brennan later said he was not under criminal investigation, per the Washington Examiner.
