"Interesting Timing All Things Considered - Russian activist Maria Butina to be released from prison Friday - Arrive Moscow Saturday"
Funny how the "political espionage" story just ***poof*** disappeared shortly after this:
It's almost like the media want everyone to forget the central element where the FBI (from DC) told Patrick Byrne to run Butina up against the republican field of presidential candidates, and provide direct introductions.....
Funny that.
Full Disclosure: I received a very kind email from Mr. Byrne after writing this, saying he was stunned at the accuracy we were able to extract from his statements when overlayed against all our prior DOJ/FBI research.
From the operational description of Mr. Patrick Byrne it would appear Ms. Butina was used by the FBI to “dirty-up” political targets, opening them up for FISA-702 surveillance.
The FBI/NSA database can be used in real time, or in historic mapping, to monitor people simply by entering their cell phone number and filtering the geolocation.
Additionally, texts, call logs, emails, and sensitive electronic communication can all be reviewed by FBI officials using this database.
What Patrick Byrne was describing is an illicit and intentional use of an FBI counterintelligence operation to monitor the political campaign of the opposing party. ie. "Political Espionage", in his words.
As a Russian national with specific Russian interests that are not in alignment with U.S. national interests, Maria Butina would be defined by the U.S. intelligence community as an ‘agent of a foreign power’.
Her status would mean unrestricted monitoring by the U.S. intelligence community would be entirely legal.
However, because of this ‘foreign agent’ status Ms. Butina could also be valuable as a virus to infect anyone the U.S. intelligence apparatus would wish to target domestically. This motive appears to be the reason for the FBI to tell Mr. Byrne where to send Ms. Butina.
Conducting FISA-702(16)(17) database searches and surveillance on U.S. persons who would meet with Butina would be justifiable and legal.
FISA-702(“16” to-from) and (“17” about) queries were off the charts during the time-frame of November 2015 through May 2016.
The time-frames here are too coincidental to be accidental.
Maria Butina likely did have sketchy intentions from a U.S. strategic interest perspective; and monitoring her was perhaps justifiable. However, specifically directing Butina on where to go and who to meet is another kettle-o-fish entirely.
That corrupt and purposeful motive is likely why Mueller, Weissmann and the corrupt small group within the DOJ and FBI, wanted Butina locked away in strict isolation.
But the story gets really good when you overlay what came next....
Patrick Byrne describing in hindsight being offered a $1 billion bribe of sorts to stay quiet. This peaked many curious questions; however, it is worth noting a bribe as described could come in a multitude of forms for a businessman who operates a massive corporation.
This is the part where Byrne was surprised about CTH accuracy in the *bigger picture*, and how we figured it out.
In 2018, when the *bribe* was being (not so subtly) hinted toward, Mr. Byrne’s company, Overstock, was under an SEC investigation.
FBI Special Agent Peter Strzok’s wife, Melissa Hodgman, was the Assoc. Director of the SEC Enforcement Division, who happened to be leading the SEC investigation of Patrick Byrne’s company.
Elimination of that SEC investigation was worth approximately $1 billion.
Huh, imagine that?
Coincidences.
Small world.
