Guess who was also in briefing on Mueller investigation with Whitaker??

[Grasswire2]

Great twitter thread on this discovery.

A U.S. Attorney from Devin Nunes district.

That's the likely pipeline to Trump.

You don't have to be a twitter member to read the thread there.

1. Makes sense.

[Grasswire2]

3. It's why Whitaker could speak with impunity today when asked.

He actually didn't tell Trump.

Scott, who was there, told Nunes who told Trump. Or a variation thereof.


Do we know who actually DID the briefing? That person needs to be called to testify, too.

9. Watching the hearing I could tell he was

Hiding something about this subject. It was like he would tense up and then release when no one hit the nail on the head. The 5 minutes per questioner didn't help. Too bad they didn't orchestrate better....like determining the goal was to find out about briefing trump and arrange a plan to get there.

[Grasswire2]

13. I saw that too.

I saw him experience a little smugness when each questioner failed to lay a glove on him.

There is criticism out there of the lack of coordinated strategy by the questioners. They could have tag teamed. They didn't. It's a system rigged to fail when the subject has been deeply coached to avoid giving answers.

2. This is all gonna come out in the wash. I suspect some of today's testimony will come back to

haunt this fuck. That is why this public testimony is so important. We the people need to see these fucks get SET UP.

[Eyeball_Kid]

4. Watch what they do, not what they say.

Reportedly, Whitaker was seen going into Trump Tower after his shit show at the hearings.

[Grasswire2]

5. yep

With a shit-eating grin, likely.

[democratisphere]

6. All of this blatant in your face corruption is unbelievable.

7. Mcgregor Scott joins the list of people of good reputation

outed when his association with scum like Nunes, Whitaker and Trump is revealed. I just looked, and his reputation has many achievements and was at least surface-clean and respectable.

Some of these operators turn out to have always been of bad character, like Kavanaugh, and that's only belatedly revealed under the spotlights. Others, though, had always stayed fairly honest within honest structures but failed when their structures were replaced with operating within what the Republican Party has become.

Given his obvious intelligence, I suspect Scott will turn out to be the first sort. Probably what lead him to be appointed a U.S. attorney by Bush II in the first place.

[Grasswire2]

11. Everything Trump touches turns to shit.

Now we see someone who likely was pretty clean even though a Bush appointee. Don't know the reputation of his district for corruption; will look it up.

8. My guess is Mueller already has this info. Nunes is already in the crosshairs.

So far, big money has protected them but there will come a time when some of the big money might be sanctioned and frozen.

[Grasswire2]

10. yes, but this clearly reveals the stealth by which this team skirts detection and oversight

No one in the hearing yesterday thought to ask Whitaker who was in on the briefing; who was in the room.

And many of those questioning him are experienced in the law.

NO ONE ASKED HIM WHO WAS IN THE ROOM WHEN HE WAS BRIEFED.

[FrankBooth]

12. Yes they did

Don’t remember which Dem asked, but Whitaker named Scott as the staff who was with him.

[Grasswire2]

14. well, but no one asked a follow up.

I missed that.

No one asked why Scott would be there, 3,000 miles from his job and no obvious reason to be included.

Now Scott needs to be called to testify, and asked what he did with the information he heard.

[FrankBooth]

15. Correct.

No follow up and no mention that he’s the US Attorney in Nunes’ District. But I’m sure that will be a point going forward.

Replying to @jedshug @DevinNunes and

Eastern District is also the most corrupt, far-right district in California. Some of the judges’ decisions out there read like white supremacy fanfic.

1. WHO briefed Whitaker?
2. Where was Rod Rosenstein & what has been his role since Whitaker?
3. W referred to Scott as "one of my staff" - odd way to describe a US Attorney.
4. What about SDNY & Whitaker? - this was hardly touched on yesterday.
5. What pardons?

Scott must be questioned under oath by @JerryNadler (so far inept) committee to determine how & why he was selected to accompany Whitaker?

Go deeper. Scott was just confirmed. Great rep. Big firm law partner, long & deep involvement in California Republican politics as well. My bet: information pass-through. Surprising that not one Dem questioned Whittaker specifically about using cut-outs to deliver info to Trump.
