Mueller subpoenaed a Cambridge Analytica director (Slowly but surely)


Lest we get distracted by #NotesFromNationalEmergency, there were lights under bushels in #TrumpRussia. Remember who owned CambAnal (The Mercers) and who was in charge of it (Steve Bannon). And beyond the hacked emails, then there’s the transfer of US voters’ data (from FB and elsewhere) among whom?

One part of Mueller’s investigation focuses on whether the Trump campaign sought to influence the timing of the release of emails by WikiLeaks before the election. Investigators are looking at communications between them. In the (Netflix) film, Brittany Kaiser says that she has gone from being a cooperating witness to a subject of investigation because of her contact with Assange.

In October 2017, it was revealed that Alexander Nix, the chief executive of Cambridge Analytica, had contacted Assange in August 2016 to try to obtain emails from Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign – which indictments from Mueller’s team say were obtained by Russian military intelligence – to use in Donald Trump’s campaign.

Claimed by Joey Faye, but likely much, much older. Famous filmed versions from around 1940 by The Three Stooge and by Abbott and Costello.

Of course, I am a fan of the Stooges and the amazing Abbott and Costello. Not to date myself, my father was a fan.

I think it's big deal. Apparently a feeling not held by many.

interested, what did I miss?

When I send something out on the intertubes, I have no expectation it will bring any desired result.

Will not be enough. They’re going to have to make an extended miniseries!

I can’t wait!

Most dots, particularly at this stage, need to be correlated with a number of other dots.

When the Mueller story finally gets told, by guess is that the total number of staff hours logged in Mueller's and related offices, will be much more than expected - and the cases moved surprisingly fast under the circumstances.
