The potential conflict is more acute now that #ToddBlanche has installed #JoediGenova, a fmr US attorney for DC, to reinvigorate an investigation into what #diGenova has outlined as a broad “conspiracy” against #Trump spanning from the 2017 #Russia #ElectionInterference probe to the aborted Special Counsel Jack Smith prosecutions that ended in 2024.
DiGenova is based in Fort Pierce, FL, a federal court with few major criminal cases aside from Trump’s.

#JoeDiGenova’s appointment has rattled current & former employees of the #CIA who worry he will go after anyone inside the intelligence community who #Trump perceives to have played a part in politically motivated investigations, two of the sources said.

The #DOJ last month removed the veteran prosecutor in Miami who had been leading the investigation into #Brennan. The department then installed #JoeDiGenova, a former federal prosecutor turned conservative legal commentator & critic of Brennan, to oversee the probe & a related effort to examine whether prior investigations into #Trump amounted to a conspiracy against the president. 🙄🥱

Acting AG #ToddBlanche helped oversee the #DOJ’s investigation into #Brennan when #PamBondi was AG. #Trump fired Bondi in April amid mounting White House frustration with the pace & outcome of her team’s investigations.

#Brennan’s lawyer said in a letter to the chief federal judge in Miami that prosecutors had told his client that he is a target of the investigation. He stated prosecutors were "#JudgeShopping" by trying to steer the investigation to a Trump-appointed judge in Fort Pierce, Florida, who previously dismissed a #criminal case against #Trump [yup, it’s the ever-so-compromised #AileenCannon.

The dossier was referenced only briefly in the assessment & a summary of its allegations was attached to a classified version of the report. #Brennan has said the #CIA opposed including the #SteeleDossier in the report & the classified summary was only included as part of a compromise with the #FBI.

Known as the #SteeleDossier after its author, fmr British intelligence officer Christopher Steele, the document was funded by Trump's political opponents & included salacious rumors about alleged links between his 2016 campaign & Moscow, which #Trump strenuously denied. [but it was just 1 document in the investigation]

The current & former #CIA officers are being asked about #Brennan's role in producing the assessment & the extent to which its conclusions were shaped by a controversial dossier of unverified claims about Trump's ties to #Russia.

And yet, still, #Trump, who has falsely described the #Russia investigation as a “hoax”, has pushed prosecutors to dig into those he perceives to have been involved in spearheading the probe, including #Brennan.
A source familiar with the Brennan investigation said that #FBI agents had questioned about a dozen current & former #CIA officers who worked on the 2017 assessment.

Prosecutors have been examining whether he made a false statement to #Congress in 2023 in discussing a 2017 intelligence assessment that looked at #ElectionInterference by #Russia in 2016.
The core conclusions of that assessment, which focused on Russia’s cyber-espionage & influence efforts to boost #Trump’s candidacy over Hillary Clinton, were later affirmed by the #DOJ, a bipartisan #Senate committee & a #CIA review.

To those who are confident 47 can’t stop the midterms because “states control their own elections”…
Just remember a lot of people in power in states want the same result, and effective election interference doesn’t require full cancelation.

"AI chatbots giving misleading voting advice in run-up to election"
This is a bit rich coming from the BBC, since Margaret Thatcher turned BBC news into a right wing propaganda machine in the 1970s featuring Nick Robinson and Laura Kuenssberg.

‘Fuck you very much, Indiana MAGA,’ says a Federal judge as he allows students to use their student IDs when voting.
“The court estimated that roughly 40,000 students could be affected by the law. And for those voters, the consequences would be immediate.”
This is what #ElectionInterference looks like, and the call is coming from inside the country.

Russia is giving masterclass in #election #interference ahead of Hungary vote
When #Hungarians vote today, they will be #voting in environment poisoned by probably largest documented campaign of foreign #ElectionInterference in #EU history
Central paradox of this campaign is not Russia is interfering — that has long become the norm. It is that #Russia is doing so while wearing a #Ukrainian #disguise.

Any move to force changes to #state run #election systems is likely to face immediate #legal challenges.
#Trump claimed only a judge could block the order & complained that there were many "rogue" & "very bad" judges. "I don't see how they can challenge it," he said about the executive order.

The order would use federal #data to help state #election officials verify who is “eligible” to #vote in their jurisdictions. It would also require #AbsenteeBallots to be sent only to voters on each state's “approved” mail-in ballot list & mandate “secure” ballot envelopes with unique tracking barcodes.
