Alright, good folks, time for a thread. Thank you to @techno_fog for posting this link to the FBI/DOJ FD302 of FBI Special Agent William Barnett’s interview by US Attorney John Jensen of the Eastern District of Missouri.

It should be noted that USA Jensen of EDMO was assigned to review Crossfire Razor, the #flynn investigation, for criminal activity & misconduct.

This FD302 was released to Gen Flynn’s lawyer Sidney Powell as part of this on going investigation.

2. Within the first opening paragraphs of this FD302 bombs are already falling. Big bombs. The first here is something i’ve discussed at length with @tracybeanz - the use by FBI & DOJ personell of Microsoft Lync instant messenger. The internal agencys’ servers are subject to backups & archiving. In other words, Jensen & other investigators working with him likely have recovered huge conversations between all the parties. They could wipe their phones, but they cannot wipe out the Lync conversations.

By the way, those are official government records & the are subject to Freedom Of Information Act request. (FOIA)

The second major disclosure is that from the beginning, Special Agent Barnett saw the entire ‘crossfire hurricane’ case as quote ‘supposition on supposition’. In other words, mythical conspiracy theories being chased down in the never ending effort to ‘get Trump’.

3. Wait a sec: so strzok personally assigns SA Barnett to the crossfire razor investigation but he doesn’t have access to the case files? He’s the case agent on Crossfire Razor, the sub investigation into Flynn. But he has to get casefiles from an analyst? They weren’t very serious about this investigation at this point. He even calls it unclear & disorganized.

Barnett also notes the predication for opening the case is weak at best. The weak predication, use of National Security Letters to get around not having subpoena power or warrants, its not legitimate from the start.

SA Barnett states up front this was ‘treading lightly due to upcoming election’- they wanted to get dirt to help Hillary win but not get caught interfering.

4. On the day of the election, SA Barnett & FBI CI Analyst 1 have a blunt discussion & conclude they don’t understand point of this investigation & believe it’s a waste of time.

In other words, the people on the case looking at it objectively see no point to it. That’s because the objective was to interfere in the election, not to protect National Security: natsec was nothing more than a pretext to do it- an excuse.

Another bombshell: usually SA’s who are cases officers have the authority to close their own cases. Crossfire Razor was different- only HQ had that authority, not the case agent. Comey & McCabe were the ones making that decision.

Further into this screen shot Barnett states it had become more ‘complex’ because Trump won & Flynn was going to be National Security Advisor. I read this to say that the level of importance of this investigation in subverting an incoming Trump admin went to an 11 on a scale of 10.

4. (Continued) Barnett called out analyst 3 & the Supervisory Special Agent overseeing it who i believe was Joseph Pientka- asks them what the end game is? Clearly they didnt give Barnett an answer. Barnett suggests interviewing Flynn to get to the heart of the matter, and they flat out tell him no.

So Barnett goes to Special Agent In Charge of WFO (washington field office) who floats interview suggestion to higher HQ (comey & mccabe & likely J Baker & L Page); they reject it flatly.

What Barnett doesnt know & we knew from previous Strzok/Page text releases was they (comey, mccabe, strzok, preistap, baker & page & others) were already planning an Ambush interview of Flynn deliberately designed to entrap him. Sally A Yates & Mary McChord were integral to this.

Remember this? 👇

5. ‘Barnett was not part of any FURTHER CONVERSATIONS CONCERNING INTERVIEW OF FLYNN- UNTIL THE DAY AFTER STRZOK PERSONALLY AMBUSHED FLYNN WITH PIENTKA! The message was clear: Barnett was too objective- he wasn’t part of the ‘secret society’ read in to the REAL purpose of the interview & the investigation- to get Flynn, by any means necessary including entrapment. Barnett wouldn’t have gone along with that, so they shut him out of it. IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING this interview Strzok took direct control of Crossfire Razor. This is an official sworn statement. This is court evidence that they knew they were entrapping Flynn and the case agent of record was starting to suspect it.

6. FBI HQ: Strzok, Preistap, Ghattas, McCabe, Comey, Baker, Page, Klinesmith, others. DOJ: Mary McChord, Sally Yates & others. Actively meeting about FISA’s to plan & map out #FISAabuse & #spygate - as well as how to entrap Flynn. The meeting Yates had with Pence setting events in motion unbeknownst to Pence what was really going on... While Sally Yates, McCabe & others were leaking damaging lies from crossfire hurricane & razor to David Ignatius to damage the Trump admin & force Flynn firing & give further pretext for the illegitimate investigations.

7. Andrew McCabe took over & was personally running a weakly predicated investigation into the incoming National Security Advisor- while leaking lies to the press from the case & lies from the Steele dossier. This is damning. ESPECIALLY when you understand that McCabe had a *personal vendetta* against General Mike Flynn. See below for context: 👇

8. You see, Gen Flynn was a character witness for the victim in a sexism/discrimination case against Andrew McCabe: Robyn Gritz.

See this story about SSA Gritz & how Gen Flynn stood up for her as McCabe destroyed her career for speaking out. It gives you the motive for McCabe going after Flynn. It was personal.

9. McCabe made no secret of it, either.

‘First we fuck Flynn, then we fuck Trump!’ -FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe

Thomas Paine of True Pundit had sources inside the FBI who detailed the motive behind Crossfire Razor in detail:

10. Fast forward: Comey has been fired, because Trump found out what he was doing. He was likely warned about what was happening to himself & Flynn by a corrupt FBI Director running an on going #coup. Now Mueller, Comey’s life long best friend has near super powers as Special Counsel- thus taking power away from McCabe but giving it to Mueller, Weissmann & clinton foundation lawyer Jeannie Rhea. I will *never* forgive Sessions for this.

Barnett is ordered by Strzok to brief SCO attorneys (prosecutors)- Rhea interrupts, challenges, makes it clear Rhea has one purpose. Get Flynn on something. Anything. At this point it probably dawns on Barnett what this is & he goes over her head to primary SCO Atty 1 (weissmann?) & says he wants off the case.

Barnett knows this is a political operation not a real case.

11. That first sentence: “Rhee was obsessed with Flynn & Russia & had an agenda.” Barnett flat out refused to work with her. He wanted nothing to do with her. He know what she was doing was at best unethical & wrong & at worst, was criminal & abuse of power, & he wanted nothing to do with it. He goes to SCO Atty1 (weissmann?) & a SECOND time says he wants nothing to do with Crossfire Razor.

This is a big deal: FBI agents dont get to choose the cases they work but here’s a senior line agent telling the SCO he wants no part of their #witchhunt

12. So Rhee & SCO Atty1 (weissmann?) got on the phone to McCabe & Strzok ASAP. Within ONE DAY Strzok, who tries to change his mind. My theory is Barnett was one of several agents that got an inside look & said ‘nope, Im out, this is wrong’ & Strzok is doing damage control to keep it staffed.

Barnett flatly tells him this is a waste of time, theres nothing there. Think back to the Strzok/Page texts we’ve read: Strzok admits to Lisa Page ‘there’s no ‘there’ there.’ It was a dry hole. An empty treasure chest.

Strzok & Wiessmann Double down, tell Barnett ‘we’ll have you work on stuff Rhee isn’t involved in.’ Strzok says he’ll be a buffer between Barnett & Rhee.

The incredible part here is Barnett relents: he says he agrees, but his reason is to be the sane adult in the room. I’m not sure i understand that; he has no real power & surely he would have known that.

13. The last part of this screen shot is REALLY interesting: he was segregated from the rest of the SCO team, with them working out of FBI HQ- were they keeping him at WFO to keep him under the microscope afraid he was going to leak damaging info about what they were doing? Were they concerned he’d go to the DOJ OIG?

14. The moment shit got real. Trump knew about the #coup & was acting to stop it; this is the moment FBI & SCO leadership went to panic mode & full speed ahead. The need to get something to remove Trump was now urgent.
