Durham Report Refutes Inspector General's
Report, Democrat Myth
Breitbart, by Joel B. Pollak
Posted By: Beardo, 5/15/2023 9:16:08 PM
The report of Special Counsel John H. Durham into the origins of the "Russia collusion" investigation refutes the claims of an earlier Inspector General's report that Democrats cited to defend the FBI and the probe itself. In late 2019, Department of Justice Inspector General Michael Horowitz released the report of his investigation into the FBI's "Russia collusion" probe. While Horowitz found there had been "serious performance failures," he found no evidence of "intentional misconduct." More broadly, he found that while the conduct of the probe - including fraudulent warrant applications - had been wrong, the investigation was opened for good reasons.

How Barr's Quest to Find Flaws in the Russia Inquiry Unraveled
The review by John Durham at one point veered into a criminal investigation related to Donald Trump himself, even as it failed to find wrongdoing in the origins of the Russia inquiry.
By Charlie Savage, Adam Goldman and Katie Benner
Jan. 26, 2023
WASHINGTON - It became a regular litany of grievances from President Donald J. Trump and his supporters: The investigation into his 2016 campaign's ties to Russia was a witch hunt, they maintained, that had been opened without any solid basis, went on too long and found no proof of collusion.
Egged on by Mr. Trump, Attorney General William P. Barr set out in 2019 to dig into their shared theory that the Russia investigation likely stemmed from a conspiracy by intelligence or law enforcement agencies. To lead the inquiry, Mr. Barr turned to a hard-nosed prosecutor named John H. Durham, and later granted him special counsel status to carry on after Mr. Trump left office.
But after almost four years - far longer than the Russia investigation itself - Mr. Durham's work is coming to an end without uncovering anything like the deep state plot alleged by Mr. Trump and suspected by Mr. Barr.
Moreover, a monthslong review by The New York Times found that the main thrust of the Durham inquiry was marked by some of the very same flaws - including a strained justification for opening it and its role in fueling partisan conspiracy theories that would never be charged in court - that Trump allies claim characterized the Russia investigation.
Interviews by The Times with more than a dozen current and former officials have revealed an array of previously unreported episodes that show how the Durham inquiry became roiled by internal dissent and ethical disputes as it went unsuccessfully down one path after another even as Mr. Trump and Mr. Barr promoted a misleading narrative of its progress.
Now, as Mr. Durham works on a final report, the interviews by The Times provide new details of how he and Mr. Barr sought to recast the scrutiny of the 2016 Trump campaign's myriad if murky links to Russia as unjustified and itself a crime.
Mr. Barr, Mr. Durham and Ms. Dannehy declined to comment. The current and former officials who discussed the investigation all spoke on the condition of anonymity because of the legal, political and intelligence sensitivities surrounding the topic.
A year into the Durham inquiry, Mr. Barr declared that the attempt "to get to the bottom of what happened" in 2016 "cannot be, and it will not be, a tit-for-tat exercise. We are not going to lower the standards just to achieve a result."
But Robert Luskin, a criminal defense lawyer and former Justice Department prosecutor who represented two witnesses Mr. Durham interviewed, said that he had a hard time squaring Mr. Durham's prior reputation as an independent-minded straight shooter with his end-of-career conduct as Mr. Barr's special counsel.
"This stuff has my head spinning," Mr. Luskin said. "When did these guys drink the Kool-Aid, and who served it to them?"

NEW: Turns out Durham's disagreement (below) with IG Horowitz over his conclusions about Crossfire Hurricane's "predication and how the FBI case was opened" had nothing to do with the dossier. Durham simply felt the case should have been opened as a preliminary investigation instead of a "full investigation" right out of the gate. By opening it as a full investigation "from Day One," Comey and his team had authority to wiretap Trump advisers, whereas they would not have had that authority under a preliminary investigation. This means, apparently, that Durham buys the FBI's line that the Crossfire team never received the dossier at HQ until Sept 19, 2016 and therefore did not use it as predication

Statement of U.S. Attorney John H. Durham
"I have the utmost respect for the mission of the Office of Inspector General and the comprehensive work that went into the report prepared by Mr. Horowitz and his staff. However, our investigation is not limited to developing information from within component parts of the Justice Department. Our investigation has included developing information from other persons and entities, both in the U.S. and outside of the U.S. Based on the evidence collected to date, and while our investigation is ongoing, last month we advised the Inspector General that we do not agree with some of the report's conclusions as to predication and how the FBI case was opened."

Q
WASHINGTON - Michael Sussmann, a prominent cybersecurity lawyer with ties to Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign, was acquitted on Tuesday of lying to the F.B.I. in 2016 when he shared a tip about possible connections between Donald J. Trump and Russia.
The verdict was a significant blow to the special counsel, John H. Durham, who was appointed by the Trump administration three years ago to scour the Trump-Russia investigation for any wrongdoing.
But Mr. Durham has yet to fulfill expectations from Mr. Trump and his supporters that he would uncover and prosecute a "deep state" conspiracy against the former president. Instead, he has developed only two cases that led to charges: the one against Mr. Sussmann and another against a researcher for the so-called Steele dossier, whose trial is set for later this year.

U.S. Attorney Durham tells mob tales during rare lecture
theday.com/article/20180310/NWS12/180319936
Connecticut U.S. Attorney John Durham details his role as a special prosecutor in the Whitey Bulger case at the University of St. Joseph in West Hartford on Monday, March 5, 2018. (Bob Thiesfeld/courtesy of The Cool Justice Report)
United States Attorney John H. Durham has kept such a low profile while handling some of the country's most infamous criminal investigations that he once made New Republic magazine's list of Washington's "most powerful, least famous people."
Durham "made his bones," as he would say, prosecuting mobsters, corrupt federal agents and former Connecticut Gov. John G. Rowland. He's been tapped by United States attorneys general to investigate topics as touchy as alleged torture and coverups during CIA investigations.
The 67-year-old Groton resident, nominated as Connecticut's top federal prosecutor by President Donald Trump and endorsed by Republicans and Democrats alike, has confined most of his public speaking to within the four walls of federal courtrooms.
As the state's U.S. attorney, Durham takes on administration duties over the state's 68 federal prosecutors and 50-odd staff members who work in courthouses in Bridgeport, New Haven and Hartford. He plans to continue trying cases and has a murder trial coming up later this year.
A week after being sworn in, Durham, perhaps realizing that his new role calls for higher visibility, delivered a lecture at the University of St. Joseph in West Hartford, a formerly all-female school that is going all co-ed this year and ratcheting up its criminal justice program.
For about an hour this past Monday, he regaled an audience with an insider's view of the widely publicized investigations that brought down mobsters James "Whitey" Bulger, Stephen "The Rifleman" Flemmi and their corrupted FBI handler, Special Agent John Connolly Jr. It was a case that extended into Connecticut, where gambling venues for the sport jai alai were infiltrated by Bulger's Winter Hill Gang.
Bodies had been piling up in Boston throughout the 1970s and 1980s, and by 1999, after it became clear that members of Boston's FBI bureau had been compromised by the Irish and Italian mafia, Attorney General Janet Reno and FBI Director Louis Freeh called on Durham and others from Connecticut to help.

John Durham: The low-profile Connecticut prosecutor leading a high-profile hunt for the origin of Trump collusion claims
Dec 04, 2019 at 6:00
U.S. Attorney John H. Durham was back in Connecticut for a retirement dinner earlier this fall and one of the other attendees observed, half facetiously, that he showed no obvious signs of bruising or broken bones.
When Attorney General William Barr put Durham at the center of the most contentious national controversy in years. He is digging into the origins the FBI's counter-intelligence, Russia-collusion investigation of President Donald J. Trump's 2016 campaign.
Durham, a career prosecutor with a gold-plated resume, will be excoriated no matter what he does. The president's allies have created formidable expectations, predicting Durham will prove Democrats have maligned Trump with a succession of made-up controversies. Top Democrats are calling Durham a tool Trump is using for revenge.
Speculation increased last week with the impending release Monday of Justice Department Inspector General Michael E. Horowitz's report..
Durham's colleagues say there is no one better able to tune out the partisan noise. They predict he will immerse himself in the work and he may end up frustrating everyone.
"They opened Pandora's Box, when they chose John," said Bill Reiner, a retired FBI agent and longtime Durham colleague. "He is going to go wherever the evidence goes. And he does not care where it goes. There is no politics in John. There is no politics in anything he does."
Durham hasn't been a stranger to contention. He helped break up the New England Mafia,...
None of those cases ignited the partisan rancor associated with the so-called "investigation of the investigators," especially after the stakes grew last month when it was widely reported that Durham and his hand-picked, inner circle of Connecticut colleagues have criminal authority.
Analyzing allied intelligence
Durham and his team - including former assistant U.S. Attorney Nora Dannehy and retired FBI agent John Eckenrode, both of Connecticut - have had remarkable success keeping most of what they are doing secret.
It was Barr who disclosed that Durham has conferred with European governments to learn what friendly intelligence services channeled to their U.S. counterparts about Russia and the Trump campaign. Some governments, including the Baltic states and Ukraine, were early opponents of a Trump candidacy..
Durham has been asked to decide - if such intelligence was a basis for the collusion investigation - whether it was obtained and used appropriately under U.S. laws that govern foreign intelligence collection and restrict spying on Americans.
"A Department of Justice team led by U.S. Attorney John Durham is separately exploring the extent to which a number of countries ... played a role in the counterintelligence investigation directed at the Trump campaign during the 2016 election,"

CONSENT MOTION TO
ADJOURN THE CLASSIFIED DISCOVERY AND CIPA SCHEDULE
The United States of America, by and through its attorney, Special Counsel John H.
Durham with the consent of defense counsel, respectfully moves this Honorable Court, pursuant
to the Classified Information Procedures Act ("CIPA"), 18 U.S.C. App. III ?? 1-16, to adjourn
the deadline for production of classified discovery, which is currently set for March 29, 2022.
The government also respectfully requests that the Court reset the CIPA filing schedule in
accordance with the proposed schedule set forth below. The government has consulted counsel
with counsel for the defendant and they do not object to the adjournment and extension of filing
deadlines. The proposed dates would not result in an adjournment of the October 11, 2022 trial
date or any other associated deadlines.
To date, the government has produced over 60,000 documents in unclassified discovery.
A portion of these documents were originally marked "classified" and the government has
worked with the appropriate declassification authorities to produce the documents in an
unclassified format. However, recent world events in Ukraine have contributed to delays in the
production of classified discovery. The officials preparing and reviewing the documents at the
FBI and intelligence agencies are heavily engaged in matters related to Ukraine. Nevertheless, the government will produce a large volume of classified discovery this week and will continue
its efforts to produce documents in classified discovery on a rolling basis, and no later than the
proposed deadlines set forth below.
For the Court's consideration, the government, in consultation with defense counsel,
proposes the following pretrial deadlines:
Deadline to produce classified discovery: May 13, 2022
Government's Section 4 filing: May 31, 2022
Ex parte Section 4 hearing: June 8, 2022
Defendant's Section 5(a) written notice: June 22, 2022
Government's response to defendant's Section 5(a): July 12, 2022
Defendant's reply: July 19, 2022

Trump & Fox are desperately spinning up a fake scandal to distract from his real ones. So it's a day that ends in Y.
The more his misdeeds are exposed, the more they lie.
For those interested in reality, here's a good debunking of their latest nonsense.
https://mobile.twitter.com/HillaryClinton/status/1494036101572575232
Imagine, if you will, that a special counsel appointed by the federal government declared in a court filing that he had evidence that a major political figure-let's call her Hillary Clinton-had paid spies to infiltrate the White House and run surveillance on Donald Trump in order to frame him as a foreign asset. The whole thing would be a big flipping deal! One for which there would be major, major consequences and far-reaching fallout. The country, nay, the world would be gripped by the story, and for good reason-a former candidate for office spying on the president? In the White House? That would be crazy! And you're right-it would be crazy if something like that had actually happened. Which it didn't, though unfortunately for reason, logic, and the concept of the truth, Donald Trump, Fox News, and various other deranged conservatives cannot be convinced of that.
Yes, as you've probably heard, on Saturday the former president released a statement claiming "Special Counsel Robert Durham"-he meant to say "John Durham" but was apparently too angry to keep his Johns and his Roberts straight-had uncovered "indisputable evidence that my campaign and presidency were spied on by operatives paid by the Hillary Clinton Campaign in an effort to develop a completely fabricated connection to Russia," a "scandal far greater in scope and magnitude than Watergate" for which Trump suggested those involved should be executed but would settle for criminal prosecution. The problem? Neither Robert Durham nor John Durham nor anyone else for that matter had actually provided evidence of any such crime, let alone even suggested it.
Per The New York Times:
When John H. Durham, the Trump-era special counsel investigating the inquiry into Russia's 2016 election interference, filed a pretrial motion on Friday night, he slipped in a few extra sentences that set off a furor among right-wing outlets about purported spying on former President Donald J. Trump. But the entire narrative appeared to be mostly wrong or old news-the latest example of the challenge created by a barrage of similar conspiracy theories from Mr. Trump and his allies.
The latest example began with the motion Mr. Durham filed in a case he has brought against Michael A. Sussmann, a cybersecurity lawyer with links to the Democratic Party. The prosecutor has accused Mr. Sussmann of lying during a September 2016 meeting with an F.B.I. official about Mr. Trump's possible links to Russia. The filing was ostensibly about potential conflicts of interest. But it also recounted a meeting at which Mr. Sussmann had presented other suspicions to the government. In February 2017, Mr. Sussmann told the C.I.A. about odd internet data suggesting that someone using a Russian-made smartphone may have been connecting to networks at Trump Tower and the White House, among other places.
According to the filing, Sussmann had gotten his information from technology executive Rodney Joffe, whose company, Neustar, had performed server-related work for the White House. In Durham's estimation, Joffe and his colleagues had "exploited this arrangement by mining [certain records] for the purpose of gathering derogatory information about Donald Trump." Fox News took this line from Durham's filing and ran with it, claiming Durham had said he had found that the Clinton campaign had paid the technology company to "infiltrate" White House servers. The lack of similarly baseless claims from the mainstream media led Trump to declare "The press refuses to even mention the major crime that took place. This in itself is a scandal, the fact that a story so big, so powerful and so important for the future of our nation is getting zero coverage from LameStream, is being talked about all over the world."

https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2022/feb/1/John-Durham-going-deep-into-russiagate/
By Rowan Scarborough - The Washington Times - Tuesday, February 1, 2022
OPINION:
"Russiagate" special counsel John H. Durham is signaling he's not at the end of investigating the Democratic Party scandal of promoting fake allegations to ruin candidate and former President Donald Trump.
Mr. Durham's court update on Jan. 25 says he has gained access to voluminous FBI internal affairs case files. The Inspection Division is investigating agents for misconduct in Crossfire Hurricane, as the Trump probe was dubbed. Crossfire relied on the Democratic Party's Christopher Steele dossier, which proved to be a bundle of falsehoods.
The U.S. District Court filing also tells of an internal tug-of-war in which the Justice Department's top watchdog, Inspector General Michael E. Horowitz, has to be prodded to turn over everything related to Mr. Durham's wide mandate. The delay is ironic. Mr. Horowitz blew the lid on FBI Crossfire misconduct in a lengthy 2019 report that detailed FBI rule breaking.
Three times in his 19-page submission Mr. Durham tells the judge that his team is conducting an "active, ongoing criminal investigation" not limited to the defendant, former Hillary Clinton campaign legal adviser Michael A. Sussmann.
This is not good news for President Biden and his designee at Justice, Merrick Garland. They want a quick end to the narrative of Democratic Party dirty tricks and political pollution.
In 2016, behind the scenes, as a Clinton campaign agent, Mr. Sussmann was a prime promoter to the press and Obama FBI of the fabled Alfa Bank storyline.
It went this way: Mr. Trump set up a secret back channel from a computer server in Pennsylvania to Alfa Bank, a huge Moscow-based commercial lender controlled by billionaire Russian oligarchs. They and Mr. Trump called it conspiracy fiction. More importantly, the FBI concluded the Alfa claim was unfounded and closed the case in February 2017.
Mr. Sussmann's problem, according to a September indictment, is that when he briefed then-FBI general counsel James Baker on supposed Alfa-Trump crimes, he said he was not representing a client. In fact, he was there for the Clinton campaign, and thus the indictment's single criminal charge of lying to the bureau.
Mr. Durham's filing discloses new anecdotal material amid his principal goal of updating the judge on prosecution evidence turned over to Mr. Sussmann. Mr. Durham brags about all the stuff: over 130,000 pages with 492,000 still to come. Some papers carry the intelligence community's highest classifications, meaning they deal with top secret sources and collection methods. ..

And there is the FBI's complete Alfa Bank electronic case file. This means we should learn at some point (a trial is scheduled for May) why/how agents disproved Alfa when Democratic operatives such as Fusion GPS' Glenn Simpson of dossier fame and Mr. Sussman himself swore by it.
It is Mr. Durham's tidbits that make his memo so interesting.

We learned something HUGE today!!!
We learned that James Baker has been under Federal Investigation for quite some time……NOT by Horowitz, Hiland, or Huber though!
There's ANOTHER man that was appointed by AG Session's to Investigate the dirty players and we JUST learned about him and his name today.
Baker is being investigated out of an office in CT.
Way outside the beltway of the swamp…..and the media.
By a man who prosecutes CIA, FBI, and Top Law Enforcement officials.
Oh, and he specializes in……RICO Charges!
Meet John H. Durham.
Mr Durham was appointed as US attorney in Connecticut by AG Sessions on February 22, 2018.
Prior to his appointment as U.S. Attorney, Mr. Durham served as an Assistant U.S. Attorney in various positions in the District of Connecticut for 35 years, prosecuting complex organized crime, violent crime, public corruption, and financial fraud matters.
From 2008 to 2017, Mr. Durham served as Counsel to the U.S. Attorney; from 1994 to 2008, he served as the Deputy U.S. Attorney, and served as the U.S. Attorney in acting and interim capacity in 1997 and 1998; from 1989 to 1994, he served as Chief of the Office's Criminal Division, and from
👉1982 to 1989, he served as an attorney and then a supervisor in the New Haven Field Office of the Boston Strike Force in the Justice Department's Organized Crime and Racketeering Section.👈 RICO!
From 2008 to 2012, Mr. Durham also served as the Acting U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia for the purpose of investigating matters relating to the destruction of certain videotapes by the CIA and the treatment of detainees by the CIA.
👉From 1998 to 2008, Mr. Durham served as a Special Attorney for the District of Massachusetts and Head of the Justice Task Force, where he reviewed alleged criminal conduct by FBI personnel and other law enforcement corruption in Boston, led the prosecution of a former FBI Supervisory Special Agent and a former Massachusetts State Police Lieutenant, and handled direct appeals and related proceedings following convictions after trial.👈
From 1978 to 1982, Mr. Durham served as an Assistant State's Attorney in the New Haven State's Attorney's Office headed by Arnold Markle, and from 1977 to 1978, he served as a Deputy Assistant State's Attorney in the Office of the Chief State's Attorney.
From 1975 to 1977, Mr. Durham worked as a Volunteer in Service to America (VISTA) on the Crow Indian Reservation in Montana.
Mr. Durham graduated, with honors, from Colgate University in 1972 and the University of Connecticut School of Law in 1975.
Mr. Durham has served as an Instructor in the Criminal Justice Department at the University of New Haven, as a Moot Court Judge at the Yale School of Law, and as a lecturer for the Connecticut Bar Association.
Mr. Durham is the 52nd U.S. Attorney for the District of Connecticut, an office that was established in 1789.
So you see THING'S ARE HAPPENING.
We now know of 4 SPECIAL PROSECUTORS.
WE don't know WHO ELSE was tapped by AG Session's to investigate all these dirty players.
And we won't know until, like in this case, the investigation is either wrapped up or very close to it…THEN we'll find out who else has been investigating the spooks.

Authorities Arrest Analyst Who Contributed to Steele Dossier
Igor Danchenko, a Russia analyst who worked with Christopher Steele, the author of a dossier of rumors and unproven assertions about Donald J. Trump, was indicted as part of the Durham investigation.
Nov. 4, 2021
WASHINGTON - An analyst who was a key contributor to Democratic-funded opposition research into possible links between Donald J. Trump and Russia was arrested on Thursday and charged with lying to the F.B.I. about his sources.
The analyst, Igor Danchenko, was a primary researcher for claims that went into the so-called Steele dossier, a compendium of rumors and unproven assertions suggesting that Mr. Trump and his 2016 campaign were compromised by and conspiring with Russian intelligence officials to help him defeat Hillary Clinton.
In a 39-page indictment obtained by the special counsel, John H. Durham, a grand jury accused Mr. Danchenko of five counts of making false statements to the F.B.I. about his sources for certain claims in the dossier.
The indictment showed that two and a half years after then-Attorney General William P. Barr appointed him to scour the Trump-Russia investigation for any wrongdoing, and a year after Mr. Trump lost re-election, Mr. Durham continues to press ahead.
"The special counsel's investigation is ongoing," the Justice Department said in a release that described the indictment but provided no direct statement from Mr. Durham.
Mr. Danchenko appeared before a magistrate judge at the federal courthouse in Alexandria, Va., on Thursday afternoon, wearing a white shirt and dark green pants and standing with his hands behind his back as he listened to the proceeding. His defense lawyer tried to enter a plea of not guilty, but the judge said that was premature before releasing Mr. Danchenko on bond. The lawyer declined to make a statement to reporters afterward.
The dossier has played a vivid role in the Trump-Russia affair, but was largely peripheral to the official inquiry. The F.B.I. had already opened its counterintelligence investigation into the Trump campaign and Russia before the Steele dossier reached the agents working on that matter. The special counsel who eventually took over the inquiry into Russian interference in the 2016 election, Robert S. Mueller III, did not rely upon it in his final report.
But some claims from the dossier made their way into an F.B.I. wiretap application targeting a former Trump campaign adviser, Carter Page, in October 2016, and three renewal applications the following year. And other portions of it - particularly a salacious claim about a purported blackmail tape - caused a political and media firestorm when BuzzFeed published the materials in January 2017, shortly before Mr. Trump was sworn in.
Most of the important claims in the dossier - a series of reports written by Mr. Danchenko's employer, Christopher Steele, a former British intelligence agent - have not been proven, and some have been refuted, including by Mr. Mueller. F.B.I. agents interviewed Mr. Danchenko several times in 2017 when they were seeking to run down the claims.
The first false statement charge in the indictment concerns Mr. Danchenko's interactions with a person the indictment describes as a public relations executive with strong ties to the Democratic Party.
The indictment said Mr. Danchenko falsely told the F.B.I. that he had not discussed the claims in the dossier with the public relations executive. But, the indictment said, the executive - who in his professional career frequently interacted with Eurasian clients, with a particular focus on Russia - was a source for some of the claims, including gossip about the ouster of Paul Manafort as Mr. Trump's campaign chairman.
The indictment did not name the person it called "PR Executive-1," but its description matched the career of Charles Dolan Jr., who was the state chairman of the Clinton-Gore campaigns in Virginia in 1992 and 1996 and was appointed to a position in the State Department in the Clinton administration.
Mr. Dolan was earlier named in a declaration by Olga Galkina, one of Mr. Danchenko's sources, as someone to whom Mr. Danchenko had introduced her; the indictment also said that the executive and a source who appears to be Ms. Galkina had regular interactions, including in ways that indicated they supported Mrs. Clinton's campaign.
Mr. Dolan's lawyer, Ralph D. Martin, confirmed in an email that his client was the executive named in the indictment, but said that Mr. Dolan, as a potential witness in the case, would have no comment.

The indictment said Mr. Danchenko falsely told the F.B.I. that he had not discussed the claims in the dossier with the public relations executive. But, the indictment said, the executive - who in his professional career frequently interacted with Eurasian clients, with a particular focus on Russia - was a source for some of the claims, including gossip about the ouster of Paul Manafort as Mr. Trump's campaign chairman.
The indictment did not name the person it called "PR Executive-1," but its description matched the career of Charles Dolan Jr., who was the state chairman of the Clinton-Gore campaigns in Virginia in 1992 and 1996 and was appointed to a position in the State Department in the Clinton administration.

>>14955891 John Durham lecture audio March 2018
Youtube video of Johns speech, the introduction was very interesting:
U.S. Attorney Durham tells mob tales during rare lecture
United States Attorney John H. Durham has kept such a low profile while handling some of the country's most infamous criminal investigations that he once made New Republic magazine's list of Washington's "most powerful, least famous people."
Durham "made his bones," as he would say, prosecuting mobsters, corrupt federal agents and former Connecticut Gov. John G. Rowland. He's been tapped by United States attorneys general to investigate topics as touchy as alleged torture and coverups during CIA investigations.
The 67-year-old Groton resident, nominated as Connecticut's top federal prosecutor by President Donald Trump and endorsed by Republicans and Democrats alike, has confined most of his public speaking to within the four walls of federal courtrooms.
As the state's U.S. attorney, Durham takes on administration duties over the state's 68 federal prosecutors and 50-odd staff members who work in courthouses in Bridgeport, New Haven and Hartford. He plans to continue trying cases and has a murder trial coming up later this year.
A week after being sworn in, Durham, perhaps realizing that his new role calls for higher visibility, delivered a lecture at the University of St. Joseph in West Hartford, a formerly all-female school that is going all co-ed this year and ratcheting up its criminal justice program.
For about an hour this past Monday, he regaled an audience with an insider's view of the widely publicized investigations that brought down mobsters James "Whitey" Bulger, Stephen "The Rifleman" Flemmi and their corrupted FBI handler, Special Agent John Connolly Jr. It was a case that extended into Connecticut, where gambling venues for the sport jai alai were infiltrated by Bulger's Winter Hill Gang.
Bodies had been piling up in Boston throughout the 1970s and 1980s, and by 1999, after it became clear that members of Boston's FBI bureau had been compromised by the Irish and Italian mafia, Attorney General Janet Reno and FBI Director Louis Freeh called on Durham and others from Connecticut to help.
"It was quite the scandal that was going up there in Boston," Durham told the audience at St. Joseph's. "We were asked to go up there because we had some familiarity with the New England LCN (La Cosa Nostra) and knew some of the judges and the investigators and so fortH. So the Justice Task Force was formed to investigate corruption involving the FBI and others."
Durham's longtime partner in crime-fighting, Deputy Chief State's Attorney Leonard C. Boyle, introduced the U.S. attorney to the university gathering as the person members of the Connecticut bar call when stumped by a legal question. Boyle said Durham has "an extreme work ethic" and is working all the time, whether in the office or at home.
Boyle said Durham has an uncanny ability to identify the smallest of facts in a case "and weave it together into a tapestry of detail," but joked that Durham's skill does not extend to his attire. Durham has a tendency to mismatch his suit jackets and trousers, Boyle said, and it's only when he's standing in a courtroom, addressing a jury, "when he realizes that particular day he wore the gray striped jacket with the Navy-blue pants."
Boyle seemed as amazed as anyone that his friend had agreed to the speaking engagement, since Durham is "notoriously shy about speaking about himself or what he does."
The University of St. Joseph's affiliation with the Catholic church may have helped.
"Other than an overwhelming commitment to the cause of justice, the two great devotions of John's life are his Catholic faith and his family," Boyle said. The Courant has reported several times that Durham also is an avid Red Sox fan.
Durham and his wife, Susan, have four sons - two of them prosecutors - and eight grandchildren.
Durham's lecture, delivered along with a PowerPoint presentation entitled "The Use of Informants: A Cautionary Tale," contained hints of his own restrained approach to investigations. Using criminals to gather information about other criminals is a necessity in cases where the average citizen is justifiably scared but,at best, is a "double-edged sword," Durham said.

A key source for the Christopher Steele dossier that alleged ties between the Donald Trump campaign and Russia has been arrested.
Russian-born analyst Igor Danchenko, who is living in the United States, was arrested by federal agents on Thursday as part of the John Durham investigation, The New York Times reported.
The arrest of the analyst, Igor Danchenko, is part of the special counsel inquiry led by John H. Durham, who was appointed by the Trump administration to scrutinize the Russia investigation for any wrongdoing, the people said.

Mr. Danchenko, was the primary researcher of the so-called Steele dossier, a compendium of rumors and unproven assertions suggesting that Mr. Trump and his 2016 campaign were compromised by and conspiring with Russian intelligence officials in Moscow's covert operation to help him defeat Hillary Clinton.

Q Research General #18876: Igor Danchenko Analyst Who Contributed to Steele Dossie ARRESTED Edition
Federal authorities on Thursday arrested an analyst who in 2016 gathered leads about possible links between Donald J. Trump and Russia for what turned out to be Democratic-funded opposition research, according to people familiar with the matter.
The arrest of the analyst, Igor Danchenko, is part of the special counsel inquiry led by John H. Durham, who was appointed by the Trump administration to scrutinize the Russia investigation for any wrongdoing, the people said.
Mr. Danchenko, was the primary researcher of the so-called Steele dossier, a compendium of rumors and unproven assertions suggesting that Mr. Trump and his 2016 campaign were compromised by and conspiring with Russian intelligence officials in Moscow's covert operation to help him defeat Hillary Clinton.
The people familiar with the matter spoke on condition of anonymity because the indictment of Mr. Danchenko had yet to be unsealed. A spokesman for Mr. Durham did not respond to a request for comment.
Some claims from the Steele dossier made their way into an F.B.I. wiretap application targeting a former Trump campaign adviser in October 2016. Other portions of it - particularly a salacious claim about a purported sex tape - caused a political and media firestorm when Buzzfeed published the materials in January 2017, shortly before Mr. Trump was sworn in.
But most of the important claims in the dossier - which was written by Mr. Danchenko's employer, Christopher Steele, a former British intelligence agent - have not been proven, and some have been refuted. F.B.I. agents interviewed Mr. Danchenko in 2017 when they were seeking to run down the claims in the dossier.
The interview suggested that aspects of the dossier were misleading: Mr. Steele left unclear that much of the material was thirdhand information, and some of what Mr. Danchenko - who was born in Russia but lives in the United States - had relayed was more speculative than the dossier implied.
A 2019 investigation by the Justice Department's inspector general sharply criticized the F.B.I. for continuing to cite material from the dossier after the bureau interviewed Mr. Danchenko without alerting judges that some of what he said had cast doubt on the contents of the dossier.
The inspector general report also said that a decade earlier, when Mr. Danchenko worked for the Brookings Institution, a prominent Washington think-tank, he had been the subject of a counterintelligence investigation into whether he was a Russian agent.

In an interview with The New York Times in 2020, Mr. Danchenko defended the integrity of his work, saying he had been tasked to gather "raw intelligence" and was simply passing it on to Mr. Steele. Mr. Danchenko - who made his name as a Russia analyst by exposing indications that the dissertation of President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia contained plagiarized material - also denied being a Russian agent.
"I've never been a Russian agent," Mr. Danchenko said. "It is ridiculous to suggest that. This, I think, it's slander."
Mr. Steele's efforts were part of opposition research that Democrats were indirectly funding by the time the 2016 general election took shape. Mr. Steele's business intelligence firm was a subcontractor to another research firm, Fusion GPS, which in turn had been hired by the Perkins Coie law firm, which was working for the Hillary Clinton campaign.
Mr. Danchenko said he did not know who Mr. Steele's client was at the time and considered himself a nonpartisan analyst and researcher.
Mr. Durham has been known to be interested in Mr. Danchenko and the Steele dossier saga. In February, he used a subpoena to obtain old personnel files and other documents related to Mr. Danchenko from the Brookings Institution, where Mr. Danchenko had worked from 2005 until 2010.
The charges against Mr. Danchenko follow Mr. Durham's indictment in September of a cybersecurity lawyer, Michael Sussmann, which accused him of lying to the F.B.I. about who he was working for when he brought concerns about possible Trump-Russia links to the bureau in September 2016.
Mr. Sussmann, who then also worked for Perkins Coie, was relaying concerns developed by data scientists about odd internet logs they said suggested the possibility of a covert communications channel between the Trump Organization and Alfa Bank, a Kremlin-linked financial institution. He has denied lying to the F.B.I. about who he was working for.

McAuliffe paid his wife between 500,000 and 700,000, depending on how you count it, on behalf of Hillary, then McCabe made Hillary's investigation go away.

In the Horowitz report, Horrowitz said he didn't think the money from Hillary to the McCabe's had any influence on McCabe's decision making. "Durham, in the one and only press release he has made, said he didn't agree with the findings of the Horowitz report.' We can't know for sure if he was talking about McCabe, but I think he was. McCabe is definitely one of the six names on civilian Q place holder list.

Durham Seeks Grand Jury Indictment of Perkins Coie, DNC Lawyer.
Finally, something. But is it big enough?
The long-awaited impacts of the "Durham report" - a deep dive by special counsel John H. Durham into the origins of the Russia collusion hoax - appear to have finally yielded a result.
Durham, the former U.S. Attorney for the state of Connecticut, is believed to be calling on a grand jury to indict Michael Sussmann, a partner at the left-wing Perkins Coie law firm which represented the Democratic National Committee.
The New York Times reports:
The case against Mr. Sussmann centers on the question of who his client was when he conveyed certain suspicions about Mr. Trump and Russia to the F.B.I. in September 2016. Among other things, investigators have examined whether Mr. Sussmann was secretly working for the Clinton campaign - which he denies.
An indictment is not a certainty: On rare occasions, grand juries decline prosecutors' requests. But Mr. Sussmann's lawyers, Sean M. Berkowitz and Michael S. Bosworth of Latham & Watkins, acknowledged on Wednesday that they expected him to be indicted, while denying he made any false statement.
"Mr. Sussmann has committed no crime," they said. "Any prosecution here would be baseless, unprecedented and an unwarranted deviation from the apolitical and principled way in which the Department of Justice is supposed to do its work. We are confident that if Mr. Sussmann is charged, he will prevail at trial and vindicate his good name."
A spokesman for Attorney General Merrick B. Garland, who has the authority to overrule Mr. Durham but is said to have declined to, did not comment. Nor did a spokesman for Mr. Durham.
The accusation against Mr. Sussmann focuses on a meeting he had on Sept. 19, 2016, with James A. Baker, who was the F.B.I.'s top lawyer at the time, according to the people familiar with the matter. They spoke on condition of anonymity.
Because of a five-year statute of limitations for such cases, Mr. Durham has a deadline of this weekend to bring a charge over activity from that date.
At the meeting, Mr. Sussmann relayed data and analysis from cybersecurity researchers who thought that odd internet data might be evidence of a covert communications channel between computer servers associated with the Trump Organization and with Alfa Bank, a Kremlin-linked Russian financial institution.
The F.B.I. eventually decided those concerns had no merit. The special counsel who later took over the Russia investigation, Robert S. Mueller III, ignored the matter in his final report.

Durham Is Said to Seek Indictment of Lawyer at Firm With Democratic Ties
The lawyer, Michael Sussmann, is accused of lying to the F.B.I. in a 2016 meeting about Trump and Russia. He denies wrongdoing.
WASHINGTON - John H. Durham, the special counsel appointed by the Trump administration to scrutinize the Russia investigation, has told the Justice Department that he will ask a grand jury to indict a prominent cybersecurity lawyer on a charge of making a false statement to the F.B.I., people familiar with the matter said.
Any indictment of the lawyer - Michael Sussmann, a former federal prosecutor and now a partner at the Perkins Coie law firm, and who represented the Democratic National Committee on issues related to Russia's 2016 hacking of its servers - is likely to attract significant political attention.
Donald J. Trump and his supporters have long accused Democrats and Perkins Coie - whose political law group, a division separate from Mr. Sussmann's, represented the party and the Hillary Clinton campaign - of seeking to stoke unfair suspicions about Mr. Trump's purported ties to Russia.
The case against Mr. Sussmann centers on the question of who his client was when he conveyed certain suspicions about Mr. Trump and Russia to the F.B.I. in September 2016. Among other things, investigators have examined whether Mr. Sussmann was secretly working for the Clinton campaign - which he denies.
An indictment is not a certainty: On rare occasions, grand juries decline prosecutors' requests. But Mr. Sussmann's lawyers, Sean M. Berkowitz and Michael S. Bosworth of Latham & Watkins, acknowledged on Wednesday that they expected him to be indicted, while denying he made any false statement.
"Mr. Sussmann has committed no crime," they said. "Any prosecution here would be baseless, unprecedented and an unwarranted deviation from the apolitical and principled way in which the Department of Justice is supposed to do its work. We are confident that if Mr. Sussmann is charged, he will prevail at trial and vindicate his good name."
A spokesman for Attorney General Merrick B. Garland, who has the authority to overrule Mr. Durham but is said to have declined to, did not comment. Nor did a spokesman for Mr. Durham.
The accusation against Mr. Sussmann focuses on a meeting he had on Sept. 19, 2016, with James A. Baker, who was the F.B.I.'s top lawyer at the time, according to the people familiar with the matter. They spoke on condition of anonymity.

At the meeting, Mr. Sussmann relayed data and analysis from cybersecurity researchers who thought that odd internet data might be evidence of a covert communications channel between computer servers associated with the Trump Organization and with Alfa Bank, a Kremlin-linked Russian financial institution.
The F.B.I. eventually decided those concerns had no merit. The special counsel who later took over the Russia investigation, Robert S. Mueller III, ignored the matter in his final report.
Mr. Sussmann's lawyers have told the Justice Department that he sought the meeting because he and the cybersecurity researchers believed that The New York Times was on the verge of publishing an article about the Alfa Bank data and he wanted to give the F.B.I. a heads-up. (In fact, The Times was not ready to run that article, but published one mentioning Alfa Bank six weeks later.)
Mr. Durham has been using a grand jury to examine the Alfa Bank episode and appeared to be hunting for any evidence that the data had been cherry-picked or the analysis of it knowingly skewed, The New Yorker and other outlets have reported. To date, there has been no public sign that he has found any such evidence.
But Mr. Durham did apparently find an inconsistency: Mr. Baker, the former F.B.I. lawyer, is said to have told investigators that he recalled Mr. Sussmann saying that he was not meeting him on behalf of any client. But in a deposition before Congress in 2017, Mr. Sussmann testified that he sought the meeting on behalf of an unnamed client who was a cybersecurity expert and had helped analyze the data.
Moreover, internal billing records Mr. Durham is said to have obtained from Perkins Coie are said to show that when Mr. Sussmann logged certain hours as working on the Alfa Bank matter - though not the meeting with Mr. Baker - he billed the time to Mrs. Clinton's 2016 campaign.
Another partner at Perkins Coie, Marc Elias, was then serving as the general counsel for the Clinton campaign. Mr. Elias, who did not respond to inquiries, left Perkins Coie last montH.

East Hartford Man Pleads Guilty to Federal Gun Charge
John H. Durham, United States Attorney for the District of Connecticut, announced that DIONTE WILSON, 25, of East Hartford, pleaded guilty today to unlawful possession of a firearm by a convicted felon.
Pursuant to the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act), the court proceeding before U.S. Magistrate Judge Donna F. Martinez occurred via videoconference.
According to court documents and statements made in court, after a review of videos on social media websites identified Wilson as being in possession of several different firearms, members of the FBI's Northern Connecticut Gang Task Force conducted multiple controlled purchases of marijuana from Wilson. On August 10, 2020, Wilson was arrested after he displayed a Taurus .380 caliber handgun during a controlled marijuana purchase. A subsequent search of Wilson's residence revealed a loaded .380 caliber Taurus gun magazine and approximately 100 rounds of .22 caliber long rifle hollow point bullets.
Wilson's criminal history includes state convictions for narcotics and firearm offenses. It is a violation of federal law for a person previously convicted of a felony offense to possess a firearm or ammunition that has moved in interstate or foreign commerce.
Wilson has been detained since his federal arrest on September 9, 2020. He is scheduled to be sentenced by U.S. District Judge Vanessa L. Bryant on April 14, 2021, at which time he faces a maximum term of imprisonment of 10 years.
The FBI's Northern Connecticut Gang Task Force includes members of the Hartford Police Department, East Hartford Police Department, New Britain Police Department, West Hartford Police Department, Connecticut State Police and Connecticut Department of Correction.
This case is being prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Michael J. Gustafson.
This prosecution has been brought through Project Safe Neighborhoods (PSN), a program bringing together all levels of law enforcement and the communities they serve to reduce violent crime and make neighborhoods safer for everyone.

WeLoveTrump on Telegram has an interesting question worth a little excavation.
"Is it Possible John Durham Doesn't Exist?"
Sauce-age, notes & speculation from the post (assume quotes):
- Durham resigns Feb 28, staying on as Special Counsel.
- No video exists of Durham actually speaking. None.
- Reportedly ran the historic Whitey Bulger trial, no video from that time period. No video of the trial, not a single press conference or interview or questions from reporters. Scrubbed? Or he never existed in the first place.
- Trump, "You have Bull Durham, who is supposed to be the toughest. I've never met him, never spoke to him. But he's supposed to be the smartest and the best…"
- Trump, "We're still waiting for a report from a man named Durham who I've never spoken to and never met."
- There exists 3-4 photos of John Durham. They often place a whole bank of microphones in his face to plant the idea in your head that the guys is speaking a lot and holding lots of press conferences (yet none exist).

Q Research General #16631: CPAC Saved By President Trump This Year Edition
HARTFORD COURANT | FEB 26, 2021 AT 6:10 PM
U.S. Attorney John Durham resigns;
led prosecution of mobsters, drug kingpins and corrupt politicians.
'A hero in the law enforcement community.'
U.S Attorney John H. Durham, who has built an extraordinary record over more than four decades as a Connecticut prosecutor, is leaving office this weekend, part of President Joe Biden's plan to quickly replace top federal prosecutors around the country with his own appointees.
Durham has played a leading role in some of the most important criminal cases in Connecticut and elsewhere in the country since the 1970s and, as his departure from office approached, judges, lawyers and law enforcement officers reflected on his contributions to the state's criminal justice system and his absence going forward.
"I'm biased," said Robert Devlin, a senior state appellate judge and Durham's partner 40 years ago on the federal justice department's super-secret organized crime strike force. "But if you look at it objectively, how can you not say that John Durham is the most consequential federal prosecutor ever to come out of the District of Connecticut, maybe even broader than that. Look at the cases he made and pushed across the finish line. One after the other, huge and difficult and complicated cases."
As a mob prosecutor, Durham, now 70, convicted the leadership of the Patriarca crime family, then New England's most powerful criminal outfit, riveting mob watchers across the country by playing for a Hartford jury - for the first time ever in public - a recording of vicious gangsters pricking their trigger fingers and burning images of the crime family's patron saint during the mafia's secret initiation ceremony.
He was an architect of the federal law enforcement strategy - still in use - that made Connecticut a national leader in reducing the drug violence that left bodies lying in the streets of cities in Connecticut and elsewhere in the 1990s. He supervised the convictions of a long line of corrupt politicians - among them, two mayors, the state treasurer and a governor - and was assigned by successive U.S. attorneys general of both parties to investigate gangster James "Whitey" Bulger's hold on law enforcement in Boston, the CIA's post-911 interrogation tactics and the origins of the Trump-Russia collusion allegations - a matter in which he remains involved.
"He is a hero in the law enforcement community in Connecticut and across the country," said Christopher Droney, who worked with Durham when Droney was U.S. attorney in the 1990s and who later reviewed Durham's work, first as a U.S. District Court judge and later as a federal appeals court judge. "He has taken on nearly impossible tasks and has done a terrific job with all of them. I am just very thankful that I had a chance to work with John and learn from him."
Durham was nominated by President Donald J. Trump to be U.S. attorney, the state's top federal law enforcement officer, in November 2017 and was confirmed and sworn in in February 2018. He is the first assistant U.S. attorney from Connecticut to become the state's presidentially-appointed top federal prosecutor.
Within weeks, then-U.S. Attorney General William Barr asked Durham to put together a team and move to the nation's Capitol to look for possible criminality in decisions by the FBI to eaves drop on Trump 2016 campaign aides and investigate since-discredited allegations of a connection between the campaign and Russian election meddling. In October, with the 2020 election approaching, Barr quietly appointed Durham as a special counsel, something Barr said would allow Durham to complete his work "without regard to the outcome of the election."

U.S. Attorney Durham Announces Departure from Office
After serving as the United States Attorney for the District of Connecticut for more than three years, and as a federal prosecutor in Connecticut for more than 38 years, John H. Durham today announced his resignation from the U.S. Attorney's Office, effective at midnight on February 28.
"My career has been as fulfilling as I could ever have imagined when I graduated from law school way back in 1975," said U.S. Attorney Durham. "Much of that fulfillment has come from all the people with whom I've been blessed to share this workplace, and in our partner law enforcement agencies. My love and respect for this Office and the vitally important work done here have never diminished. It has been a tremendous honor to serve as U.S. Attorney, and as a career prosecutor before that, and I will sorely miss it."
Prior to his appointment as an interim U.S. Attorney in November 2017 and subsequently as the presidentially appointed U.S. Attorney in February 2018, Mr. Durham served as an Assistant U.S. Attorney in various positions in the District of Connecticut for 35 years, prosecuting complex organized crime, violent crime, public corruption and financial fraud matters.

First Assistant U.S. Attorney Leonard C Boyle will serve as Acting U.S. Attorney upon Mr. Durham's departure.
"The Office will be in the extraordinarily capable hands of Len and our superb supervisory team who, together, guarantee that the proper administration of justice will continue uninterrupted in our District."
Mr. Boyle has served as First Assistant U.S. Attorney since June 2018, when he returned to the U.S. Attorney's Office after serving as Deputy Chief State's Attorney in Connecticut for approximately nine years. He previously served in the U.S. Attorney's Office from 1986 to 1998, and from 1999 to 2004.
Mr. Boyle is the 53rd U.S. Attorney for the District of Connecticut, an office that was established in 1789.
The U.S. Attorney's Office is charged with enforcing federal criminal laws in Connecticut and representing the federal government in civil litigation. The Office is composed of approximately 68 Assistant U.S. Attorneys and approximately 54 staff members at offices in New Haven, Hartford and Bridgeport.

Federal Judge James E. Boasberg, who also presides over the secret Foreign Surveillance Intelligence Court (FISC), sentenced former FBI attorney Kevin Clinesmith to probation instead of prison as he had requested at his sentencing hearing this morning.

This doctored email led to the issuance of the fourth surveillance warrant against Carter Page.

U.S. Attorney John H. Durham condemned rioters who stormed the U.S. Capitol and joined colleagues around the country in promising to find and prosecute those responsible.
"We encourage people with information related to the activity at the U.S. Capitol to contact the FBI," Durham said. "If the District of Connecticut is the appropriate venue for the prosecution of individuals involved in that disgraceful and criminal activity, our office will aggressively pursue any such matter."
Andrew E. Lelling, the U.S. Attorney from Massachusetts promised to prosecute anyone who traveled from his state to Washington with the intent to commit crimes.
"Yesterday's events in Washington were shocking and, once peaceful demonstrations turned violent, they became criminal," Lelling said. "The Constitution protects the right to freedom of speech and assembly. What is does not protect is a violent assault on government institutions. Americans on the right and left must re-learn the difference."
[Related] Connecticut woman arrested during riot in Washington, D.C. says she didn't know she was on Capitol grounds »
President Trump's former Attorney General, William Barr, issued a similar statement through his old justice department office saying "The violence at the Capitol Building is outrageous and despicable. Federal agencies should move immediately to disperse it."
Barr's replacement, Acting Attorney General Jeffrey A. Rosen, said federal law enforcement has worked nonstop since the rioting began and began making arrests Thursday.
"Yesterday, our Nation watched in disbelief as a mob breached the Capitol Building and required federal and local law enforcement to help restore order," Rosen said. "Our criminal prosecutors have been working throughout the night with special agents and investigators from the U.S. Capitol Police, FBI, ATF, Metropolitan Police Department and the public to gather the evidence, identify perpetrators, and charge federal crimes where warranted."
Other, outgoing Trump-appointed U.S. Attorneys and high-ranking justice officials from around the country issued similar condemnations, many sounding off on Twitter.
"What we saw at our nation's Capital was completely unacceptable," wrote Scott Brady, U.S. Attorney for the Western District of Pennsylvania. "The 1st Am does not permit using protest as cover to incite violence. If you traveled from western PA to incite or commit violent acts, we will use every tool at our disposal to identify & prosecute you."

Perps who stole Porsche, evaded police, struck two cars facing federal charges

DECEMBER 29, 2020 NEW ENGLAND NEWS/POLICE BLOTTER
NEW HAVEN, CONNECTICUT -John H. Durham, United States Attorney for the District of Connecticut, and David Sundberg, Special Agent in Charge of the New Haven Division of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, today announced that on December 22, 2020, a federal grand jury in New Haven returned an indictment charging CHRISTOPHER MULKERN, also known as "Chucky," 21, and EDWIN CORDERO, 20, both of Stratford, with federal car theft offenses.
As alleged in court documents and statements made in court, the FBI, Connecticut State Police and local police are investigating multiple car theft rings in Connecticut. Mulkern, Cordero and others have stolen numerous motor vehicles, and used the stolen vehicles to travel throughout Connecticut and to neighboring states to steal other vehicles and the valuables inside, including credit cards, cellular telephones, and firearms. Mulkern and Cordero typically frequented upper middleclass neighborhoods to go "car-checking" or "jigging," which involves an attempt to open the door of a motor vehicle and, if successful, steal the vehicle and/or valuables inside.

Mexican National Connected to New Haven Drug Ring Sentenced to 13 Years in Federal Prison
John H. Durham, United States Attorney for the District of Connecticut, announced that LORENZO MORALES-ARAMBULA, also known as "Viejo," 59, a citizen of Mexico, was sentenced today by U.S. District Judge Stefan R. Underhill to 156 months of imprisonment for trafficking cocaine and heroin.
Pursuant to the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act), the court proceeding occurred via videoconference.
This matter stems from a joint investigation headed by the DEA New Haven Task Force, FBI and New Haven Police Department that included the use of court-authorized wiretaps, controlled purchases of heroin and cocaine, and seizures of bulk heroin and cocaine. The investigation revealed that Duane Filyaw, Salvatore Orsini and others operated a heroin and cocaine trafficking ring in which they conspired to purchase narcotics from suppliers and then distribute the drugs to other suppliers and street-level dealers in and around New Haven.
Court-authorized wiretaps revealed that Filyaw and Orsini had established a heroin and cocaine supply connection with Morales-Arambula. In multiple intercepted calls between Filyaw and Morales-Arambula, Morales-Arambula agreed to supply Filyaw with kilogram quantities of cocaine and heroin that Morales-Arambula would receive from sources in Mexico and northern California. However, in January 2018, before the narcotics transactions with Filyaw could be completed, Morales-Arambula was detained in Michigan and charged in federal court with unlawful reentry of a removed alien.
During the investigation, law enforcement officers seized more than 500 grams of heroin, more than 300 grams of fentanyl, more than one kilogram of cocaine, three firearms, over $90,000 in cash, vehicles, jewelry and precious metals.
On April 19, 2018, a grand jury in New Haven returned an indictment charging Morales-Arambula, Filyaw, Orsini and 16 other individuals with narcotics trafficking offenses.
Morales-Arambula has been detained since January 14, 2018. On January 28, 2020, he pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to distribute and to possess with intent to distribute one kilogram or more of heroin and five kilograms or more of cocaine.
Morales-Arambula's criminal history includes multiple federal convictions, including convictions for firearms, drug and immigration offenses, and for causing a riot a federal correctional facility in Texas in 2008. He has been deported to Mexico twice, and subsequently reentered the U.S. without authorization. On August 21, 2018, Morales-Arambula was sentenced in the Eastern District of Michigan to 46 months of imprisonment for unlawful reentry, and a consecutive 12 months of imprisonment for violating the conditions of his supervised release that followed a prior federal conviction.
Filyaw, of New Haven, and Orsini, of West Haven, have pleaded guilty and await sentencing.
The DEA New Haven Task Force includes participants from the U.S. Marshals Service, Internal Revenue Service - Criminal Investigation Division, and the New Haven, Hamden, West Haven, North Haven, Branford, Ansonia, Meriden, Derby, Middletown, Naugatuck and Waterbury Police Departments. The Connecticut Department of Correction, Milford Police Department and East Haven Police Department have assisted the investigation.
This case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorneys H. Gordon Hall and Patrick F. Caruso through the Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Forces (OCDETF) Program. OCDETF identifies, disrupts and dismantles drug traffickers, money launderers, gangs and transnational criminal organizations through a prosecutor-led and intelligence-driven approach that leverages the strengths of federal, state and local law enforcement agencies. Additional information about the OCDETF Program can be found at https://www.justice.gov/OCDETF.

You maybe right. The fact that only the swamp media is reporting about Nora Dannehy is telling. And the fact that all the swamp media did the reporting on September 11, 2020.
Sep 11, 2020
(CNN)Nora Dannehy, a top prosecutor working for US Attorney John Durham on the probe of the Russia investigation for Attorney General William Barr, has resigned, a spokesman for the US Attorney's Office in Connecticut said.
The Hartford Courant, which first reported Dannehy's departure, cited colleagues who told the newspaper that Dannehy was stepping down in part due to concerns of political pressure to deliver a report before the presidential election.
https://www.cnn.com/2020/09/11/politics/nora-dannehy-John-Durham/index.html
Monday, March 18, 2019
U.S. Attorney John H. Durham today announced that Nora R. Dannehy has returned to the U.S. Attorney's Office and will serve as Counsel to the U.S. Attorney.
Ms. Dannehy first joined the U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Connecticut in 1991 and served as an Assistant U.S. Attorney until April 2008 when, as the Deputy U.S. Attorney, she became Acting U.S. Attorney upon the resignation of U.S. Attorney Kevin J. O'Connor. She served as U.S. Attorney until May 2010.
Ms. Dannehy was the 49th U.S. Attorney for the District of Connecticut, and the first woman to hold the position in the history of the Office, which was established in 1789.
As an Assistant U.S. Attorney, Ms. Dannehy specialized in the prosecution of complex white collar and public corruption cases. She also served as the Professional Responsibility Officer for the District.

Q Research General #13913: ClinOBiden Approved Edition
Brennan Rebuffed Requests to Lower Confidence in Key Russia Finding
The former C.I.A. director John O. Brennan disagreed with the recommendation of two senior officers in early 2017 who wanted to override intelligence analysts' determination that the agency had high confidence in one of its major judgments in the assessment of Russia's 2016 election interference: that President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia tried to help Donald J. Trump by discrediting Hillary Clinton.
The revelation by Mr. Brennan in his new book, "Undaunted," will probably fuel additional Republican criticism of the intelligence agencies' findings. But Mr. Brennan defended his actions, saying he was affirming the determinations of the analysts steeped most deeply in the intelligence, not intervening for political reasons.
"I didn't change a single analytic judgment in that intelligence community assessment," Mr. Brennan said in an interview that is set to be broadcast on C-SPAN's "Book TV" in the coming days.
The declassified assessment, released in January 2017 during the closing days of the Obama administration, said that while the C.I.A. and F.B.I. had high confidence in the finding about Mr. Putin, the National Security Agency had moderate confidence, a lower level.
Mr. Brennan said the National Security Agency originally had high confidence in the conclusion but that Adm. Michael S. Rogers, its director at the time, reduced the confidence level. Mr. Brennan said Admiral Rogers had concerns about the confidence level stemming from the quantity of sources, but Mr. Brennan said the quality of the sources justified the high confidence. Admiral Rogers, now retired, has declined to discuss the deliberations.
While the finding about Mr. Putin's efforts to help Mr. Trump's election chances has been affirmed by a bipartisan Senate report and by the former C.I.A. director Mike Pompeo, now the secretary of state, President Trump's allies disparage it and have sought to undermine it by pointing to the agencies' differing confidence levels. John Ratcliffe, the director of national intelligence who was previously one of Mr. Trump's staunchest supporters in Congress, has said that Mr. Putin was merely trying to undermine American democracy and sow chaos, rather than supporting Mr. Trump's election.
All three agencies had high confidence in the conclusion that Mr. Putin developed a clear preference for Mr. Trump.
In addition to writing about the debate over the confidence level of the other finding in his book, scheduled to be released next week, Mr. Brennan has also answered questions about the intelligence assessment posed by John H. Durham, the U.S. attorney assigned by the Justice Department to review the intelligence agencies' examination of the Russian interference campaign in 2016.
Mr. Brennan said that after a team of more than a dozen agency analysts made its initial draft assessment, two more senior officers in the mission center that oversaw intelligence on Russia expressed concerns to him. The two officers, one an analyst and the other with a background in operations, suggested the confidence level be reduced to moderate.

oh: JPMorgan Chase & Co. Agrees To Pay $920 Million in Connection with Schemes to Defraud Precious Metals and U.S. Treasuries Markets
JPMorgan Chase & Co. (JPMorgan), a New York, New York-based global banking and financial services firm, has entered into a resolution with the Department of Justice to resolve criminal charges related to two distinct schemes to defraud: the first involving tens of thousands of episodes of unlawful trading in the markets for precious metals futures contracts, and the second involving thousands of episodes of unlawful trading in the markets for U.S. Treasury futures contracts and in the secondary (cash) market for U.S. Treasury notes and bonds.
JPMorgan entered into a deferred prosecution agreement (DPA) in connection with a criminal information filed today in the District of Connecticut charging the company with two counts of wire fraud. Under the terms of the DPA, JPMorgan will pay over $920 million in a criminal monetary penalty, criminal disgorgement, and victim compensation, with the criminal monetary penalty credited against payments made to the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) under a separate agreement with the CFTC being announced today and with part of the criminal disgorgement credited against payments made to the Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) under a separate agreement with the SEC being announced today.
"For over eight years, traders on JP Morgan's precious metals and U.S. Treasuries desks engaged in separate schemes to defraud other market participants that involved thousands of instances of unlawful trading meant to enhance profits and avoid losses," said Acting Assistant Attorney General Brian C. Rabbitt of the Justice Department's Criminal Division. "Today's resolution - which includes a significant criminal monetary penalty, compensation for victims, and requires JP Morgan to disgorge its unlawful gains - reflects the nature and seriousness of the bank's offenses and represents a milestone in the department's ongoing efforts to ensure the integrity of public markets critical to our financial system."
"JPMorgan engaged in two separate years-long market manipulation schemes," said U.S. Attorney John H. Durham of the District of Connecticut. "Not only will the company pay a substantial financial penalty and return money to victims, but this agreement requires JPMorgan to self-report violations of the federal anti-fraud laws and cooperate in any future criminal investigations. I thank the FBI for its dedication in investigating these deceptive trading practices and other sophisticated financial crimes."

Nora Dannehy, Connecticut prosecutor who was top aide to John Durham's Trump-Russia investigation, resigns amid concern about pressure from Attorney General William Barr
Federal prosecutor Nora Dannehy, a top aide to U.S. Attorney John H. Durham in his Russia investigation, has quietly resigned - at least partly out of concern that the investigative team is being pressed for political reasons to produce a report before its work is done, colleagues said.
Dannehy, a highly regarded prosecutor who has worked with or for Durham for decades, informed colleagues in the U.S. Attorney's office in New Haven of her resignation from the Department of Justice by email Thursday evening. The short email was a brief farewell message and said nothing about political pressure, her work for Durham or what the Durham team has produced, according to people who received it.
Durham, who has never even acknowledged that Dannehy was in Washington working for him, had no immediate comment on the resignation.
Durham recruited Dannehy to join his team after he was appointed by Attorney General William Barr more than a year and a half ago to examine the the FBI's legal justification for a disputed counterintelligence investigation that looked for ties between President Donald J. Trump's 2016 campaign and Russian efforts to meddle in the election.
Dannehy is a career prosecutor who worked closely with Durham before leaving the U.S. Attorney's office about a decade ago for a corporate position in the defense industry. Durham persuaded her to return to the justice department and, within weeks, join his team in Washington in the spring of 2019.
Colleagues said Dannehy is not a supporter of President Donald J. Trump and has been concerned in recent weeks by what she believed was pressure from Barr - who appointed Durham - to produce results before the election. They said she has been considering resignation for weeks, conflicted by loyalty to Durham and concern about politics.
Durham is notoriously circumspect and neither he nor members of his team have revealed anything about the direction of their work. But Durham associates, none of whom have specific knowledge of the investigation, have said recently that it is their belief he is under pressure to produce something - perhaps some sort of report - before the presidential election in November.

(Washington, DC) - U.S. Senators Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.) and Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) issued the following statement regarding news that John H. Durham has been nominated to serve as United States Attorney for the District of Connecticut. The senators recommended Durham to President Trump.
"John Durham has earned immense respect as a no-nonsense, fierce and fair prosecutor, and we are pleased that the White House has agreed with our recommendation that he serve as United States Attorney for the District of Connecticut. As an Assistant United States Attorney, John Durham has proven himself time and time again in some of the most challenging and sensitive cases.

We are confident that Durham will continue this record of success in providing strong leadership to the office," Blumenthal and Murphy said.
John Durham has served in the United States Attorney's Office for the District of Connecticut since 1989, holding numerous positions, including Acting United States Attorney, Deputy United States Attorney, Chief of the Criminal Division, and Counsel to the United States Attorney. Prior to that, he served on the U.S. Department of Justice's Boston Strike Force on Organized Crime, where he led the high-profile prosecution of former Supervisory FBI Special Agency John J.

When Lynch had heard about their threats to expose it, she injected the Feds into the Garner case to start a race war in an attempt to shut down the NYPD investigation. Prince also said NYPD had a copy of the laptop emails. The IG report confirmed Lynch brought up the Garner case with NY and McCabe in a conference call. On Aug. 5, 2016, Strzok texted Lisa Page, "the White House is running this", with the initials that were redacted eventually revealed as be "L.C's". The full text was this, "And hi. Went well, best we could have expected. Other than L.C's quote 'the White House is running this.'"
The initials belong to Leslie Caldwell who was running Mid-Year Exam (MYE), the Clinton email investigation. This means the White House was running the Clinton email investigation. It was therefore the White House that exonerated Hillary Clinton and gave every other witness immunity. Since they were running the Clinton investigation, this means they took over the Wiener laptop investigation because Clinton emails were revealed on Wiener's laptop, and there were protests about nothing being done. For that reason, the White House had Comey re-open MYE while they investigated the laptop, and closed it soon after, covering up all the crimes of the emails and all the crimes revealed on the Wiener laptop.

Bridgeport Resident Charged with Possessing and Trading Images Depicting Sexual Abuse of Children
John H. Durham, United States Attorney for the District of Connecticut, today announced that ROBERT J. MOSLEY, 53, of Bridgeport, has been charged by federal criminal complaint with child pornography offenses.
Mosley, who has been detained in state custody on a parole violation since January 28, 2020, appeared today before U.S. Magistrate Judge William I. Garfinkel via video conference.
As alleged in the complaint, in 2016, Mosley was convicted in Connecticut Superior Court of possession of child pornography in the second degree. He was sentenced for that offense to 10 years in jail, execution suspended after six years, and 20 years of probation. Mosley was released on parole in November 2018.
It is further alleged that, on January 28, 2020, Connecticut parole officers and Connecticut state troopers conducted a home visit at Mosley's residence. During the visit, Mosley was found in possession of an unapproved smart phone, and an approved mobile phone that contained suspected child pornography. Investigators seized both phones and Mosley was remanded to custody. Subsequent analysis of the seized phones and a cloud storage account maintained by Mosley revealed thousands of images and hundreds of video depicting the sexual abuse of children, primarily boys between the ages of 2 and 14. In addition, analysis of Mosley's e-mail account revealed that he sent numerous e-mails soliciting child pornography, sent images of child pornography to others, and sent links to his cloud storage account.
The criminal complaint charges Mosley with receipt of child pornography and solicitation of child pornography, offenses that carry a mandatory minimum term of imprisonment of 15 years a maximum term of imprisonment of 40 years. Mosley is also charged with possession of child pornography, which carries a mandatory minimum term of imprisonment of 10 years and a maximum term of imprisonment of 20 years. The penalties in this case are enhanced based on Mosley's alleged criminal history.
U.S. Attorney Durham stressed that a criminal complaint is not evidence of guilt. Charges are only allegations, and a defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.
This matter is being investigated by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement's Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) and the Connecticut State Police, with the assistance of the Connecticut Department of Correction Division of Parole and Community Services. The case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Nathaniel J. Gentile and Law Student Intern Nelson Barrette.

Durham
Attorney General William P. Barr has assigned the top federal prosecutor in Connecticut to examine the origins of the Russia investigation, according to two people familiar with the matter, a move that President Trump has long called for but that could anger law enforcement officials who insist that scrutiny of the Trump campaign was lawful.
John H. Durham, the United States attorney in Connecticut, has a history of serving as a special prosecutor investigating potential wrongdoing among national security officials, including the F.B.I.'s ties to a crime boss in Boston and accusations of C.I.A. abuses of detainees.

Durham Inquiry Includes Scrutiny of a Media Leak
WASHINGTON - For years, President Trump has complained bitterly about F.B.I. officials who investigated his campaign's ties to Russia, and about the "rogue bureaucrats of the Deep State" at the intelligence agencies, portraying them as enemies out to delegitimize his presidency.
Now, a special Justice Department inquiry investigating those officials has taken on another of Mr. Trump's irritants: leaks to the news media.
Investigators for John H. Durham, the U.S. attorney in Connecticut leading the investigation, have asked witnesses about news articles published in early 2017 that former administration officials blame for prompting the chaos that dominated the early days of the Trump presidency, according to three people familiar with the inquiry.
Among them was a Washington Post column about Michael T. Flynn, the president's first national security adviser, one of the people said.
What Mr. Durham has found is hidden from public view, and the coronavirus pandemic has slowed his progress, the people said. But Attorney General William P. Barr has promoted the investigation in recent days, saying that Mr. Durham has uncovered "troubling" problems and indicating that some results could made public before the general election in November.
Mr. Trump has said he looks forward to the outcome of the inquiry, and a report or criminal charges before the election would all but assure that he weaponize it for political gain.

Torrington Man Charged with Threatening to Kill California Congressman
John H. Durham, United States Attorney for the District of Connecticut, and David Sundberg?, Special Agent in Charge of the New Haven Division of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, today announced that ROBERT M. PHELPS, 62, of Torrington, has been charged by federal criminal complaint with threatening to murder U.S. Representative Adam Schiff of California.
Phelps was arrested on March 13. Following his arrest, he appeared before U.S. Magistrate Judge William I. Garfinkel in Bridgeport and was released on a $25,000 bond.
As alleged in court documents and statements made in court, on November 12, 2019, the office of U.S. Representative Adam Schiff received a threatening communication through a Meeting Request entry form on Congressman Schiff's official website. The meeting request included the statement "...I want to kill you with my bare hands and smash your...face in." In addition, in response to the preferred days of the week for the meeting request, Phelps wrote "Measure your Coffin day."
It is further alleged that, on December 4, 2019, investigators interviewed Phelps at his Torrington residence and confirmed that Phelps sent the threatening communication.
The complaint charges Phelps with threatening to assault and murder a U.S. official, which carries a maximum term of imprisonment of 10 years, and with making interstate threats, which carries a maximum term of imprisonment of five years.
U.S. Attorney Durham stressed that a complaint is only a charge and is not evidence of guilt. Charges are only allegations, and the defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.
This matter is being investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Douglas P. Morabito.

Former Senior Alstom Executive Sentenced to Prison for Role in Money Laundering Scheme to Promote Foreign Bribery
A former senior executive with Alstom S.A. (Alstom), a French power and transportation company, was sentenced in federal court in New Haven, Connecticut, to 15 months in prison today for his role in a multi-year, multimillion-dollar money laundering scheme designed to promote violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA).
Assistant Attorney General Brian A. Benczkowski of the Justice Department's Criminal Division, U.S. Attorney John H. Durham of the District of Connecticut and Assistant Director in Charge Paul D. Delacout of the FBI's Los Angeles Office made the announcement.
Lawrence Hoskins, 69, was sentenced on charges of conspiracy and money laundering, following his conviction in November 2019, after a one-week jury trial before U.S. District Judge Janet Bond Arterton, who imposed today's sentence. In addition to his prison term, Hoskins was fined $30,000.
According to the evidence presented at trial, Hoskins was a senior vice president for Alstom's International Network, who engaged in a conspiracy to promote the payment of bribes to officials in Indonesia in exchange for assistance in securing a $118 million contract, known as the Tarahan project, for Alstom Power Inc. of Connecticut and its consortium partner, Marubeni Corporation, to provide power-related services for the citizens of Indonesia. The officials in Indonesia included a high-ranking member of the Indonesian Parliament and the President of Perusahaan Listrik Negara (PLN), the state-owned and state-controlled electricity company in Indonesia.

A former senior executive with Alstom S.A.

Lawrence Hoskins, 69, was sentenced on charges of conspiracy and money laundering, following his conviction in November 2019, after a one-week jury trial before U.S. District Judge Janet Bond Arterton, who imposed today's sentence. In addition to his prison term, Hoskins was fined $30,000.
According to the evidence presented at trial, Hoskins was a senior vice president for Alstom's International Network, who engaged in a conspiracy to promote the payment of bribes to officials in Indonesia in exchange for assistance in securing a $118 million contract, known as the Tarahan project, for Alstom Power Inc. of Connecticut and its consortium partner, Marubeni Corporation, to provide power-related services for the citizens of Indonesia. The officials in Indonesia included a high-ranking member of the Indonesian Parliament and the President of Perusahaan Listrik Negara (PLN), the state-owned and state-controlled electricity company in Indonesia. To conceal the bribes, Hoskins and his co-conspirators retained two consultants purportedly to provide legitimate consulting services on behalf of Alstom Power Inc., in connection with the Tarahan project. The primary purpose of hiring the consultants was to conceal the bribes to Indonesian officials, the evidence showed.
The first consultant retained by Hoskins and other members of the conspiracy received hundreds of thousands of dollars in his Maryland bank account to be used to bribe the member of Parliament, the evidence showed. The consultant then transferred the bribe money to a bank account in Indonesia for the benefit of the official. According to emails admitted at trial, Hoskins and other co-conspirators discussed in detail the use of the first consultant to funnel bribes to the member of Parliament and the influence that the member of Parliament could exert over the Tarahan project, including referring to him as a "cashier."
The trial evidence further showed that, in the fall of 2003, Hoskins and his co-conspirators determined that the first consultant was not effectively bribing key officials at PLN, who expressed concerns that the first consultant was just going to give them "pocket money" and "disappear" after Alstom Power Inc. won the project. As a result, the co-conspirators retained a second consultant to more effectively bribe PLN officials. Evidence revealed that Hoskins and his co-conspirators pressed Alstom Power Inc. to front-load the second consultant's terms of payment in order to "get the right influence" due to upcoming elections. Hoskins and his co-conspirators were successful in securing the Tarahan project and subsequently made payments to the consultants for the purpose of bribing the Indonesian officials.
The FBI's Los Angeles Field Office is investigating the case with assistance from the FBI's Meriden, Connecticut, Resident Agency. The department appreciates the significant cooperation provided by its law enforcement colleagues in Indonesia, Switzerland's Office of the Attorney General and the United Kingdom, as well as authorities in France, Germany, Italy, Singapore and Taiwan.
Senior Deputy Chief Daniel S. Kahn and Assistant Chief Lorinda Laryea of the Criminal Division's Fraud Section and Assistant U.S. Attorney David E. Novick of the District of Connecticut are prosecuting the case.

Man Charged with Distributing Fentanyl in Bristol
John H. Durham, United States Attorney for the District of Connecticut, announced that ELKIE CRUMP, also known as "40," 37, was arrested today on a federal criminal complaint charging him with possession with intent to distribute, and distribution of, fentanyl.
As alleged in the complaint, Crump formerly resided on Davis Drive in Bristol and currently resides in West Hartford as a condition of his state parole. In December 2019, the DEA's New Haven Tactical Diversion Squad and Bristol Police Department began an investigation into Crump after receiving information that Crump was distributing fentanyl in and around Bristol. On three occasions in January and February 2020, investigators conducted controlled purchases of fentanyl from Crump.
Crump was arrested this morning in West Hartford. It is alleged that he possessed a distribution quantity of fentanyl at the time of his arrest.
Crump appeared this afternoon before U.S. Magistrate Judge Robert A. Richardson in Hartford and was ordered detained.
U.S. Attorney Durham stressed that a complaint is only a charge and is not evidence of guilt. Charges are only allegations and a defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.
The DEA Tactical Diversion Squad includes officers from the Bristol, Hamden, Meriden, New Britain, West Haven and Watertown Police Departments.
This case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Conor Reardon.

I see Durham's name on this (Connecticut). Not sure the scope of this.
https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/former-alstom-executives-and-marubeni-executive-charged-bribing-indonesian-officials
Two former executives of the Indonesian subsidiary of the French power and transportation company Alstom S.A. and a former executive of the Japanese trading company Marubeni Corporation have been charged in a superseding indictment unsealed today for their alleged participation in a scheme to pay bribes to foreign government officials in Indonesia.
Assistant Attorney General Brian A. Benczkowski of the Justice Department's Criminal Division, U.S. Attorney John H. Durham of the District of Connecticut and Assistant Director in Charge Paul D. Delacout of the FBI's Los Angeles Office made the announcement.
Reza Moenaf, 63, the former president of Alstom's subsidiary in Indonesia; Eko Sulianto, 63, the former director of sales of Alstom's subsidiary in Indonesia; and Junji Kusunoki, 57, the former deputy general manager of Marubeni's Overseas Power Project Department, were each charged with conspiracy to violate the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) and conspiracy to commit money laundering. Kusunoki was charged with six counts of violating the FCPA and four counts of money laundering, and Sulianto and Moenaf were each charged with two counts of violating the FCPA and one count of money laundering.
According to the indictment, the defendants, together with others, paid bribes to officials in Indonesia - including, among others, a high-ranking member of the Indonesian Parliament and the president of Perusahaan Listrik Negara (PLN), the state-owned and state-controlled electricity company in Indonesia - in exchange for assistance in securing a $118 million contract, known as the Tarahan project, for Alstom's subsidiaries in Connecticut and Indonesia and for Marubeni to provide power-related services for the citizens of Indonesia. To conceal the bribes, the defendants allegedly retained two so-called "consultants" purportedly to provide legitimate consulting services on behalf of the power company and its subsidiaries in connection with the Tarahan project. The indictment, however, alleges that the primary purpose for hiring the consultants was to use the consultants to pay bribes to Indonesian officials.
The first consultant retained by the defendants allegedly received hundreds of thousands of dollars in his Maryland bank account to be used to bribe the member of Parliament. The consultant then allegedly transferred the bribe money to a bank account in Indonesia for the benefit of the official. According to court documents, emails between the defendants and their co-conspirators discussed in detail the use of the first consultant to funnel bribes to the member of Parliament and the influence that the member of Parliament could exert over the Tarahan project.
The superseding indictment alleges that in the fall of 2003, the defendants and their co-conspirators determined that the first consultant was not effectively bribing key officials at PLN. One email between Moenaf, Sulianto and their co-conspirators described PLN officials' "concern that if we have won the job, whether their rewards will still be satisfactory or this agent only give them pocket money and disappear." In another email, Moenaf asserted that the consultant "has no grip on the PLN Tender team at all" and "is more or less similar to [a] cashier which I feel we pay too mucH." As a result, the co-conspirators allegedly retained a second consultant to more effectively bribe PLN officials. The defendants and their co-conspirators were successful in securing the Tarahan project and subsequently made payments to the consultants for the alleged purpose of bribing the Indonesian officials, the indictment alleges.
An indictment is merely an accusation, and all defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.
The charges against Moenaf, Sulianto, and Kusunoki are part of a wide-ranging investigation into alleged corrupt practices by employees of Alstom and Marubeni. Five other individuals, as well as Alstom and Marubeni, have pleaded guilty in the case so far, and Lawrence Hoskins, a former senior vice president at Alstom, was found guilty on Nov. 6, 2019, following a jury trial, of 11 counts of conspiracy, violating the FCPA, and money laundering.
The dept appreciates the significant cooperation provided by its law enforcement colleagues in Indonesia, Switzerland's Office of the AG as well as authorities in the UK, France, Germany, Italy, Singapore and Taiwan.

Justice Dept. Is Investigating CIA Resistance to Sharing Russia Secrets
WASHINGTON - Trump administration officials investigating the government's response to Russia's election interference in 2016 appear to be hunting for a basis to accuse Obama-era intelligence officials of hiding evidence or manipulating analysis about Moscow's covert operation, according to people familiar with aspects of the inquiry.
Since his election, President Trump has attacked the intelligence agencies that concluded that Russia secretly tried to help him win, fostering a narrative that they sought to delegitimize his victory. He has long promoted the investigation by John H. Durham, the prosecutor examining their actions, as a potential pathway to proving that a deep-state cabal conspired against him.
Questions asked by Mr. Durham, who was assigned by Attorney General William P. Barr to scrutinize the early actions of law enforcement and intelligence officials struggling to understand the scope of Russia's scheme, suggest that Mr. Durham may have come to view with suspicion several clashes between analysts at different intelligence agencies over who could see each other's highly sensitive secrets, the people said.

U.S. Attorney Durham Announces Appointment of New Criminal Chief
John H. Durham, United States Attorney for the District of Connecticut, today announced that Sarah P. Karwan will serve as the Chief of the U.S. Attorney's Office's Criminal Division.
Ms. Karwan succeeds the Honorable William J. Nardini, who now serves as a U.S. Circuit Judge of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit.
Ms. Karwan joined the U.S. Attorney's Office in 2007 and, during her time as an Assistant U.S. Attorney, has prosecuted a wide variety of criminal cases. Ms. Karwan most recently has served as Chief of the District's Major Crimes Unit, supervising the prosecution of cases involving immigration, human trafficking and child exploitation, civil rights and hate crimes, government program fraud, and environmental crimes. Ms. Karwan also has served as Deputy Chief of the District's Financial Fraud and Public Corruption Unit, and as an Organized Crime and Drug Enforcement Task Force ("OCDETF") attorney.
As an AUSA, Ms. Karwan has served as both the District's Professional Responsibility Officer and Election's Officer, and as a member of the hiring committee.
Prior to her time in the U.S. Attorney's Office, Ms. Karwan was in private practice for approximately six years and specialized in securities litigation.
Ms. Karwan graduated from the College of William and Mary in 1997, and from the University of Connecticut School of Law in 2000.
"I am thrilled that Sarah Karwan will lead our Criminal Division," said U.S. Attorney Durham. "During her more than 12 years as an AUSA, Sarah has done it all, prosecuting violent criminals, drug traffickers, financial fraudsters, corrupt public officials, and a wide variety of other wrongdoers. Given the breadth of her experience and her exceptional lawyering skills, she certainly will be a standout as our new Criminal Chief."
The District's Criminal Division comprises four program-based units: Violent Crimes and Narcotics, Financial Fraud and Public Corruption, National Security and Cybercrime, and Major Crimes.
The U.S. Attorney's Office is charged with enforcing federal criminal laws in Connecticut and representing the federal government in civil litigation. The Office is composed of approximately 68 Assistant U.S. Attorneys and approximately 54 staff members at offices in New Haven, Hartford and Bridgeport.

Hartford Courant (CT) article - Oct. 27, 2017
John Durham Named Interim U.S. Attorney; Presidential Nomination Expected
https://www.courant.com/news/connecticut/hc-us-attorney-20171020-story.html
John H. Durham, a veteran mob prosecutor who has been tapped repeatedly by the Justice Department to settle complicated, national legal controversies, was named interim U.S. Attorney Friday and his nomination by President Donald J. Trump is expected to follow shortly.
Over his 40-year career, Durham has locked up scores of mobsters, supervised successful prosecutions of more than a dozen corrupt Connecticut politicians - including a governor - and helped develop and carry out a widely imitated, federal-state strategy against inner city gun and drug violence.
Outside Connecticut, beginning in the late 1990s, Durham, a Republican accepted controversial assignments for successive presidential administrations of both political parties.
On orders from the Bill Clinton justice department, he directed an investigative team that waded into the tribal morass of Boston law enforcement, identifying and prosecuting corrupt FBI agents and police officers who fed the infamous Irish gangster James "Whitey" Bulger information he used to kill informants.
A decade later, Durham went to Washington, twice, on instructions from the George W. Bush and Barack Obama justice departments to evaluate allegations of torture and cover-up by CIA operatives in aftermath of the September 11, 2001 attacks.
Durham replaces outgoing U.S Attorney Deirdre M. Daly, whose last day in office was Friday. Daly was an appointee of President Barack Obama.
Durham's selection as U.S. Attorney, Connecticut's top federal law officer, has been long anticipated. He has the support of former officeholders of both parties, the White House counsel's office, the justice department and Connecticut's Democratic U.S. Sen. Richard Blumenthal and Christopher Murphy, both sharp Trump critics.
U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions issued an order Friday naming Durham interim U.S. Attorney, and Connecticut's Chief U.S. District Judge, Janet C. Hall, swore him in Friday afternoon. Trump's nomination had been expected late this week, as Daly prepared to leave, but apparently was delayed.
For much of his career, Durham, 67, has been a top deputy in the U.S. Attorney's office in New Haven. His nomination has wide support in Connecticut and Washington, making confirmation by the U.S. Senate all but certain, and meaning he can close his career as the state's top federal law officer.

RE:
United States v. Mariia Butina, a/k/a Maria Butina
U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, Criminal Cas
e #18-218
Dear Messrs. Durham, Horowitz, and Amundson:
As you may know, I and this law o
ffice represented Maria Butina
, the Russian national,
who was arrested and indicted l
ast year and pleaded guilty this
spring to one count of conspiracy
in the above-referenced case. I recently learned of new informa
tion that concerns this matter, and
I write because this new mater
ial suggests possible misconduct
on the part of federal agents or
assistant attorneys who investig
ated and prosecuted Maria. Whil
e her case was handled by the
U.S. Attorney's Office in Washingt
on, DC, and not the Special C
ounsel (and thus may be an
OPR matter), it appears that som
e of the issues raised by the i
nformation I received relate to FBI
counterintelligence ope
rations with respect to Russia leading u
p to the 2016 election, and thus
may fall within the scope of ma
tters being investigated by Mess
rs. Durham and Horowitz.
John H. Durham, et al.

Q Research General #9679: Barr/Durham Drops da bomb on C_A Edition
John Durham asking for John Brennan's emails, call logs from CIA!
It's being reported now that John Durham has set his sights on former CIA Director John Brennan, asking for his emails, call logs, and other documents from the CIA:
NY TIMES - The federal prosecutor scrutinizing the Russia investigation has begun examining the role of the former C.I.A. director John O. Brennan in how the intelligence community assessed Russia's 2016 election interference, according to three people briefed on the inquiry.
John H. Durham, the United States attorney leading the investigation, has requested Mr. Brennan's emails, call logs and other documents from the C.I.A., according to a person briefed on his inquiry. He wants to learn what Mr. Brennan told other officials, including the former F.B.I. director James B. Comey, about his and the C.I.A.'s views of a notorious dossier of assertions about Russia and Trump associates.
Mr. Durham is also examining whether Mr. Brennan privately contradicted his public comments, including May 2017 testimony to Congress, about both the dossier and about any debate among the intelligence agencies over their conclusions on Russia's interference, the people said.
The people familiar with Mr. Durham's inquiry stressed that it was continuing and it was not clear what crimes, if any, he had uncovered. Representatives for Mr. Brennan and the Justice Department declined to comment.
This doesn't look good for Brennan, who undoubtedly played a big part in this Trump/Russia investigation. That doesn't mean he's guilty of any crimes, but if I were a betting man...
In their write-up of this article the Times added in one paragraph to tell the anti-Trump media how they should spin this:
Mr. Durham's pursuit of Mr. Brennan's records is certain to add to accusations that Mr. Trump is using the Justice Department to go after his perceived enemies. The president has long attacked Mr. Brennan as part of his narrative about a so-called deep state cabal of Obama administration officials who tried to sabotage his campaign, and Mr. Trump has held out Mr. Durham's investigation as a potential avenue for proving those claims.
That is complete utter garbage. Even AG Barr, whose interview just aired on McCallum's show, said he doesn't even know who Durham is interviewing or investigating because he doesn't keep up with the day to day. And if he doesn't know, how the heck is Trump going to know? To suggest Trump is using the DOJ to go after 'perceived enemies' is just the NY Times trying to invent an anti-Trump narrative in order to attack the president.
As an aside, Barr said in his interview with McCallum that when he appointed Durham to do the investigation, he didn't even know Durham personally. He said all that he knew of Durham was that he was legendary in the DOJ as a prosecutor and for being fair. So again, for the NY Times to suggest this is completely baseless and, as I said, garbage.

Defenders of Mr. Brennan have long maintained he did nothing wrong and properly sounded the alarm on Russian interference in the 2016 election, and he told MSNBC this fall that he would answer Mr. Durham's questions if asked.
"I feel good about what it is we did as an intelligence community, and I feel very confident and comfortable with what I did, so I have no qualms whatsoever about talking with investigators who are going to be looking at this in a fair and appropriate manner," Mr. Brennan said.
Mr. Durham, the United States attorney in Connecticut, has previously conducted politically fraught investigations, including allegations of wrongdoing in the C.I.A.'s detainee torture program. Attorney General William P. Barr appointed him this year to re-examine not only the origins of the F.B.I.'s Russia investigation but more broadly how the government uncovered Moscow's election interference and dealt with those findings.
"He is not just looking at the F.B.I.," Mr. Barr said in an interview broadcast Thursday evening on Fox News. "He is looking at other agencies."
Calling it a "much broader investigation, Mr. Barr added, "He is looking at all the conduct - both before and after the election."

Mr. Brennan has come into Mr. Durham's sights as he has focused on the intelligence community assessment released in January 2017 that used information from the F.B.I., the C.I.A. and the National Security Agency to detail Russia's meddling. They concluded that President Vladimir V. Putin ordered an influence campaign that "aspired to help" Mr. Trump's chances by damaging his opponent, Hillary Clinton.
Officials and analysts who worked on that assessment disagreed on how to treat two pieces of intelligence: the assertion that Mr. Putin wanted to help Mr. Trump win rather than simply sow chaos, and the contents of the dossier of salacious, unproven allegations about links between Russia and Trump associates compiled by a British former spy, Christopher Steele. His research, funded by Democrats, has been ground zero for conservative allegations that the origins of the Russia investigation were tainted.
"The president bore the burden of probably one of the greatest conspiracy theories - baseless conspiracy theories - in American political history," Mr. Barr told Fox News. He has long expressed skepticism that the F.B.I. had enough information to begin its inquiry in 2016, publicly criticizing an inspector general report released last week that affirmed that the bureau did.
Mr. Barr has long been interested in the conclusion about Mr. Putin ordering intervention on Mr. Trump's behalf, perhaps the intelligence report's most explosive assertion. The C.I.A. and the F.B.I. reported high confidence in the conclusion, while the N.S.A., which conducts electronic surveillance, had a moderate degree of confidence.

Q Research General #9677: +++Adm R+++ Edition
Unsealed Today
Connecticut Man Charged with Attempting to Provide Material Support to ISIS
John C. Demers, Assistant Attorney General for National Security, John H. Durham, U.S. Attorney for the District of Connecticut, and Brian C. Turner, Special Agent in Charge of the New Haven Division of the FBI, today announced that Kevin Iman McCormick, 26, of Hamden, Connecticut, has been charged by indictment with attempting to provide material support to the Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham (ISIS), a designated foreign terrorist organization.
McCormick was arrested on Oct. 21, 2019, and charged by federal criminal complaint. On Oct. 30, 2019, a federal grand jury in New Haven returned an indictment charging McCormick with the offense. The affidavit in support of the criminal complaint was unsealed today.
As alleged in court documents and statements made in court, in October 2019, McCormick made several statements to others expressing a desire to travel to Syria and to fight for ISIS. In one conversation, McCormick stated "I gotta fight bro, because those people, Abu Masa and ISIL, they fought for me bro, I know it, I can feel it, in my heart. So it's my time to fight . . . It just is what it is bro, it's just my - it's just my time to go bro." When McCormick was asked to elaborate on where he would like to travel, McCormick responded, "I don't know, I don't know bro - it's gotta be like Syria. Where ISIL is at....whichever place is easiest, whichever place I can get there the fastest, the quickest, the easiest, and where I can have a rifle and I can have some people bro. That's what I need, I need a rifle and I need some people, I need Islamic law, I need, that's what I need, because if I have these things, it's going to be very hard to kill me."
It is also alleged that, on Oct. 12, 2019, McCormick attempted to board a flight from Connecticut to Jamaica, but was prevented by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. McCormick subsequently told an individual that he wanted to travel to Jamaica, and then onward to Syria to join ISIS. He also indicated that he wanted to acquire weapons.
It is further alleged that, on Oct. 19, 2019, McCormick made a video during which he pledged allegiance to ISIS and its leader, Abu Bakr Al-Baghdadi. Also on that date, he purchased a plane ticket from Toronto, Canada, to Amman, Jordan. On Oct. 21, 2019, McCormick was arrested after he traveled to a small private airport in Connecticut where he expected to board a plane that would fly him to Canada.
McCormick has been detained since his arrest.
The charge of attempting to provide material support to a designated foreign terrorist organization carries a maximum term of imprisonment of 20 years.
An indictment is not evidence of guilt. Charges are only allegations, and each defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.
This matter is being investigated by FBI's Joint Terrorism Task Force (JTTF) with the assistance of the Transportation Security Administration (TSA).
The FBI's JTTF includes participants from the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement's Homeland Security Investigations (HSI), Internal Revenue Service - Criminal Investigation Division, Naval Criminal Investigative Service, U.S. Marshals Service, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, Connecticut State Police, Connecticut Department of Correction, Metropolitan Transportation Authority Police Department, Norwich Police Department, Hartford Police Department, Stamford Police Department, Norwalk Police Department, Town of Groton Police Department, UConn Police Department, Yale Police Department, and New York Police Department.
This case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Douglas P. Morabito and Trial Attorney Justin Sher from the Counterterrorism Section of the Justice Department's National Security Division.

Fourth Defendant Convicted in Immigrant Kidnapping and Extortion Scheme Sentenced to 135 Months in Prison
John H. Durham, United States Attorney for the District of Connecticut, announced that LUCILO CABRERA, 46, of Bronx, New York, was sentenced today by U.S. District Judge Stefan R. Underhill in Bridgeport to 135 months of imprisonment, followed by three years of supervised release, for his role in a kidnapping and extortion scheme.
According to court documents and statements made in court, on several occasions, Cabrera and his co-conspirators targeted individuals after they exited buses at the Port Authority in New York. The victims included women, men and children from Central American countries who did not speak English and were seeking asylum in the U.S. Some of the victims planned to travel from New York to Connecticut. After the victims were told that their connecting bus was not available and that they would provide transportation, the co-conspirators coerced the victims into vehicles. Cabrera and others would then drive the victims around, sometimes for hours, and refused to release them until they or their families agreed to pay the co-conspirators an exorbitant amount of money, on average more than a $1000.
At times, co-conspirators posed as an immigration officer to intimidate the victims further.
Cabrera, who is a citizen of the Dominican Republic and a Lawful Permanent Resident of the U.S., has been detained since his arrest on June 22, 2016. On March 9, 2018, a federal jury in Bridgeport found Cabrera and two co-conspirators, Francisco Betancourt and Carlos Antonio Hernandez, guilty of kidnapping, extortion and conspiracy offenses. On November 14, 2019, Betancourt was sentenced to 168 months of imprisonment, and on November 18, 2019, Hernandez was sentenced to 96 months of imprisonment.
On October 12, 2018, a fourth defendant, Pascual Rodriguez, pleaded guilty to one count of kidnapping. On July 2, 2019, he was sentenced to 135 months of imprisonment.
This investigation was conducted by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and was prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Vanessa Richards.

Barr wants DOJ to interview C_A
DOJ to interview C_A officers on Russian interference conclusions: Report
The Justice Department plans to interview senior CIA officers as part of its investigation into the origins of the Russia investigation, according to The New York Times.
CIA Director Gina Haspel has told senior officials that while the CIA plans to cooperate, it will protect information that could place sources or collection methods at risk, the newspaper reported, citing current and former American officials.
The Department of Justice has not filed formal written requests to talk to the officers, but intelligence officials have been informed that Attorney General William Barr has assigned the United States attorney in Connecticut, John H. Durham, to seek the interviews, according to the Times.
Haspel does not plan to block the interviews and has told officers it will be possible to talk with Durham without risking agency secrets.
Barr is reportedly seeking further information on how the agency concluded Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered Russian operatives to aid President Trump's 2016 campaign and damage that of Hillary Clinton, according to the Times, citing current and former officials.
Specifically, Barr wants more information about the CIA sources the agency relied on in analyzing Russian interference as well as the intelligence pathways between the CIA and the FBI in the summer of 2016, according to the newspaper.
One senior analyst Barr is seeking to question was involved in agency assessments of Russian activities in 2016, according to the Times, citing people familiar with the inquiry.
Durham's inquiry is not criminal in nature, but he will have the authority to investigate criminal wrongdoing if he finds any, according to the Times.
Durham has investigated the CIA and Haspel specifically before and has twice concluded probes by exonerating agency officials.
The FBI and CIA did not immediately respond to a request for comment from The Hill.

Q Research General #8384: Kabuki has nothing on this movie... Edition
In a new Hill-HarrisX survey, a majority of registered voters said they support a new Department of Justice inquiry into whether official procedures were followed when the FBI began examining allegations of connections between Donald Trump's 2016 presidential campaign and Russia
Sixty-two percent of respondents to the May 17-18 survey said they support Attorney General William Barr's decision to name a U.S. attorney to determine whether law enforcement officers had obeyed regulations governing surveillance of U.S. citizens while 38 percent said they opposed the new inquiry
The poll found broad agreement across age groups in favor of the probe led by Connecticut-based U.S. attorney John H. Durham with more than 58 percent of voters under 35, between 35 and 49, between 50 and 64, and older than 64 saying that they supported it.
The president and congressional Republicans have stepped up their attacks on the FBI after special counsel Robert Mueller published a report saying that he could not find evidence that established proof of a criminal conspiracy between Trump 2016 campaign officials and people working for the government of Russia.
Republican respondents were overwhelmingly likely to say they approved of the Durham inquiry with 74 percent supporting it and 26 percent opposing it. Most independents, 67 percent, backed the probe while only 33 percent said they were against it.
Democratic respondents were divided on the issue with 48 percent saying that FBI officials should be investigated for potentially abusing their authority and 52 percent saying that they opposed the idea
That such a large percentage of Democrats would support investigating the FBI was not necessarily a surprise, Mallory Newall, research director at Ipsos Public Affairs told Hill.TV.
"My thought of why this might be the case is because of their feelings toward the attorney general who I think has sort of become a, some would say, a mouthpiece or looking at this through a partisan lens," she told "What America's Thinking" host Jamal Simmons. "It's possible that Democrats are looking for validation from a third party to investigate the investigators."
The Department of Justice previously directed Inspector General Michael Horowitz to examine whether law enforcement officials acted appropriately in their handling of an investigation into former secretary of state Hillary Clinton's unauthorized private email server. Horowitz determined that some FBI officials had exhibited a personal political bias against Trump but that it did not influence the investigation.
The Hill-HarrisX survey was conducted online among a statistically representative panel of 1,030 registered voters with a confidence level of 95 percent and a sampling margin of error of 3.1 percentage points.

April 2018
Deputy Chief State's Attorney Leonard Boyle is stepping down to return to the U.S. attorney's office to serve as the top assistant to recently appointed U.S. Attorney John H. Durham.
Boyle previously worked as a federal prosecutor and developed a record of attacking organized crime and public corruption.
Durham, another veteran federal prosecutor with a distinguished record, was selected by President Donald J. Trump to be Connecticut's top federal prosecutor, replacing U.S. Attorney Deirdre M. Daly, who resigned last year.
Boyle, 65, will serve as first assistant U.S. attorney, replacing Michael Gustafson, who was appointed deputy by Daly.
While at the U.S. attorney's office, Boyle also played a key role in the high-profile prosecution related to the corruption case against former State Treasurer Paul Sylvester. Because of recusals resulting from the investigation, Durham was acting U.S. attorney in the Sylvester prosecution, as well as that of former Gov. John G. Rowland.
Boyle was co-counsel on the Sylvester prosecution with former assistant U.S. Attorney Nora Dannehy, who is now his wife. Dannehy now works for United Technologies Corp.
After leaving the office in in 2004, Boyle directed the FBI's terrorist screening center in Washington, then was appointed public safety commissioner by former Gov. M. Jodi Rell. Boyle was appointed deputy chief state's attorney for operations in June 2009 and was reappointed to another four-year term last year. He was responsible for oversight of specialized units in the chief state's attorney's office, including a cold case and shooting task force, statewide prosecution bureau, appellate bureau, civil litigation bureau and several fraud units.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Monday, March 18, 2019
Nora R. Dannehy Returns to U.S. Attorney's Office
U.S. Attorney John H. Durham today announced that Nora R. Dannehy has returned to the U.S. Attorney's Office and will serve as Counsel to the U.S. Attorney.
Ms. Dannehy first joined the U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Connecticut in 1991 and served as an Assistant U.S. Attorney until April 2008 when, as the Deputy U.S. Attorney, she became Acting U.S. Attorney upon the resignation of U.S. Attorney Kevin J. O'Connor. She served as U.S. Attorney until May 2010.
Ms. Dannehy was the 49th U.S. Attorney for the District of Connecticut, and the first woman to hold the position in the history of the Office, which was established in 1789.
As an Assistant U.S. Attorney, Ms. Dannehy specialized in the prosecution of complex white collar and public corruption cases. She also served as the Professional Responsibility Officer for the District.
In September 2008, U.S. Attorney General Michael B. Mukasey appointed Ms. Dannehy to supervise a national investigation concerning the dismissal of nine U.S. Attorneys in 2006.
"Nora Dannehy has superior legal skills and an unmatched reputation for integrity," said U.S. Attorney Durham. "During her long tenure in the Justice Department, she led some of the most sensitive investigations ever undertaken by our office. I am thrilled that Nora has chosen to return to public service and look forward to working with her and relying on her counsel and decades of legal experience to further the cause of justice for the people of Connecticut and our nation."
Ms. Dannehy departed the U.S. Attorney's Office in December 2010 when she was appointed Deputy Attorney General for the State of Connecticut. From October 2013 to March 2019, she was employed by United Technologies Corporation as Associate General Counsel for Global Ethics and Compliance.
Prior to her service with the U.S. Department of Justice, Ms. Dannehy was an associate with the law firm of Day, Berry & Howard from 1988 to 1991. From 1986 to 1988, she served as a law clerk to Senior U.S. District Judge T. Emmet Clarie.
Ms. Dannehy graduated from Harvard Law School in 1986 and from Wellesley College in 1983.
The U.S. Attorney's Office is charged with enforcing federal criminal laws in Connecticut and representing the federal government in civil litigation. The Office is composed of approximately 68 Assistant U.S. Attorneys and approximately 57 staff members at offices in New Haven, Hartford and Bridgeport.

"If there is any issue that cries out for a special counsel investigation, it is the evolution of the Trump-Russia collusion theory. Attorney General William Barr may well have decided that the nation does not need to go through such an ordeal again, but he did the next best thing by tapping John H. Durham to investigate what could well be the most nefarious political conspiracy in American history."
"Durham is Connecticut's top federal prosecutor, an attorney with a reputation for toughness and a resume that includes investigations into high-level government corruption cases. Reports suggest that he has been on the job for some weeks already, and that is an indication of how seriously the matter is being taken by the attorney general."

Evidence of Leak Investigation being carried out by US Attorney John Durham
Durham is US Attorney for CT. I think this notable is huge because there has been very little evidence of criminal investigations. It shows that there is activity beyond Huber and that Q Team is attacking the cabal from various sides.
Recently there was discussion of Huber being a deep state head fake. It seems that the concern is no longer such a major concern when there other US Attorneys engaged in criminal prosecutions.

More on John Durham, US Attorney
Holder Hires Prosecutor to Look Into Alleged CIA Interrogation Abuses
By Carrie Johnson
Washington Post Staff Writer
Tuesday, August 25, 2009
In appointing a prosecutor to investigate alleged CIA interrogation abuses, including episodes that resulted in prisoner deaths, Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. on Monday shook off warnings from President Obama to avoid becoming mired in past controversies.
Holder said that he realizes the move is controversial but that it was the only responsible course to take.
The decision does not reflect a sharp division between the Justice Department and the White House, government officials said, given the limits of the preliminary review and the respect that Obama says he maintains for the role of an independent attorney general. But it could mark the beginning of a painstaking inquiry that tests the boundaries of the Justice Department's discretion and its ability to evaluate incomplete evidence collected on the world's battlegrounds.
Holder has named longtime prosecutor John H. Durham, who has parachuted into crisis situations for both political parties over three decades, to open an early review of nearly a dozen cases of alleged detainee mistreatment at the hands of CIA interrogators and contractors.
The announcement raised fresh tensions in an intelligence community fearful that it will bear the brunt of the punishment for Bush-era national security policy, and it immediately provoked criticism from congressional Republicans.
Legal analysts said the review, while preliminary, could expand beyond its relatively narrow mandate and ensnare a wider cast of characters. They cited U.S. Attorney Patrick J. Fitzgerald's investigation of the leak of a CIA operative's identity, which culminated with the criminal conviction of then-Vice President Richard B. Cheney's chief of staff.
In a statement Monday afternoon, Holder cautioned that the inquiry is far from a full-blown criminal investigation. Rather, he said, it is unknown whether indictments or prosecutions of CIA contractors and employees will follow. Lawyers involved in similar reviews said that any possible cases could take years to build because of challenges with witnesses and evidence.
"I fully realize that my decision to commence this preliminary review will be controversial," Holder added. "As attorney general, my duty is to examine the facts and to follow the law. In this case, given all of the information currently available, it is clear to me that this review is the only responsible course of action for me to take."
Obama and White House officials have said that they want to look ahead on national security; White House press secretary Robert Gibbs said last week that the administration is eager to keep "going forward" and that "a hefty litigation looking backward is not what we believe is in the country's best interest."
But the White House voiced support for Holder in a news conference held Monday on Martha's Vineyard, Mass., where deputy press secretary Bill Burton told reporters that "ultimately, the decisions on who is investigated and who is prosecuted are up to the attorney general. . . . The president thinks that Eric Holder, who he appointed as a very independent attorney general, should make those decisions."
But nearly as important in the high-stakes analysis will be Durham, 59, an assistant U.S. attorney in Connecticut who has investigated Boston mob kingpins, corrupt FBI agents and his state's GOP governor. Durham rarely speaks publicly, but in private he cracks jokes, follows the Boston Red Sox and regularly attends Mass with his wife of several decades. One of his four sons followed in his father's footsteps and now serves as a federal prosecutor in Brooklyn.
Though a registered Republican, Durham generally is regarded as apolitical, and attorneys general from both parties – including Janet Reno, Michael B. Mukasey and Holder – have tapped him for their most difficult assignments.

Dem Rep. Linda Sanchez's Husband Indicted on Stealing Fed Funds, Drops Leadership Bid
Democratic representative Linda Sanchez (Calif.) has pulled out of the race to head the House Democratic Caucus after her husband was indicted on federal criminal charges.
Sanchez's husband, James Sullivan, allegedly misused federal funds for the likes of expensing trips to the Kentucky Derby and to Key West, Fla., Politico reports.
"Earlier today, I learned that my husband is facing charges in Connecticut," Sanchez said yesterday. "After careful consideration of the time and energy being in leadership demands, I have decided that my focus now needs to be on my son, my family, and my constituents in California."
Sanchez's husband was one of five individuals with ties to a Connecticut Municipal Electric Energy Corporation that steered more than $800,000 in funds to personal trips without the board voting or approval from member towns, which is required.
A second indictment alleged that Sanchez's husband marked personal expenses on his corporate expense reports that were ultimately approved by Drew Rankin, another individual who is listed in the first indictment.
For the personal expenses, Sullivan billed the corporation for travel that included trips for his family to the Kentucky Derby between 2013 and 2015. That indictment additionally said that Sullivan billed for airfare for Rep. Sanchez to Key West in late 2014, Roll Call reports.
"CMEEC has received millions of dollars in grants from the U.S. Department of Energy," U.S. Attorney John H. Durham said on the matter. "Instead of protecting these funds and returning excess revenue to member towns and ratepayers, these defendants are alleged to have used the CMEEC Margin Account as a secret slush fund to pay for lavish junkets for themselves and their family and friends, as well as for other inappropriate expenses."

Former Precious Metals Trader Pleads Guilty to Commodities Fraud and Spoofing Conspiracy
A former precious metals trader at a United States bank (Bank) pleaded guilty in a proceeding unsealed yesterday to commodities fraud and a spoofing conspiracy in connection with his participation in fraudulent and deceptive trading activity in the precious metals futures contracts markets.
Assistant Attorney General Brian A. Benczkowski of the Justice Department's Criminal Division, U.S. Attorney John H. Durham of the District of Connecticut and Assistant Director in Charge William F. Sweeney Jr. of the FBI's New York Field Office made the announcement.
John Edmonds, 36, of Brooklyn, New York, pleaded guilty under seal on Oct. 9 in the District of Connecticut to an information charging him with one count of commodities fraud and one count of conspiracy to commit wire fraud, commodities fraud, commodities price manipulation and spoofing. Sentencing is scheduled for Dec. 19 before U.S. District Judge Robert N. Chatigny of the District of Connecticut.
"For years, John Edmonds engaged in a sophisticated scheme to manipulate the market for precious metals futures contracts for his own gain by placing orders that were never intended to be executed," said Assistant Attorney General Benczkowski. "The Criminal Division is committed to prosecuting those who undermine the investing public's trust in the integrity of our commodities markets through spoofing or any other illegal conduct."
"This defendant was involved in manipulating the precious metals commodity markets for several years, and I thank the FBI for its diligent investigation of this matter and its commitment to hold accountable those who use technology to their advantage to cheat these markets." said U.S. Attorney Durham. "The investigation of deceptive trading practices by others involved in this scheme is ongoing."
"With his guilty plea, Edmonds admitted he intended to introduce materially false and misleading information into the commodities markets," said FBI Assistant Director in Charge Sweeney. "By conspiring with his trading partners to place spoof orders, he blatantly attempted to profit off of an unfair market that he helped create. The FBI will continue to work with our partners to insure financial markets remain a level playing field for all investors."
As part of his plea, Edmonds admitted that from approximately 2009 through 2015, he conspired with other precious metals traders at the Bank to manipulate the markets for gold, silver, platinum and palladium futures contracts traded on the New York Mercantile Exchange Inc. (NYMEX) and Commodity Exchange Inc. (COMEX), which are commodities exchanges operated by CME Group Inc. Edmonds and his fellow precious metals traders at the Bank routinely placed orders for precious metals futures contracts with the intent to cancel those orders before execution (the Spoof Orders), he admitted. This trading strategy was admittedly intended to inject materially false and misleading liquidity and price information into the precious metals futures contracts markets by placing the Spoof Orders in order to deceive other market participants about the existence of supply and demand. The Spoof Orders were designed to artificially move the price of precious metals futures contracts in a direction that was favorable to Edmonds and his co-conspirators at the Bank, to the detriment of other market participants. In pleading guilty, Edmonds admitted that he learned this deceptive trading strategy from more senior traders at the Bank, and he personally deployed this strategy hundreds of times with the knowledge and consent of his immediate supervisors.
This case is the result of an ongoing investigation by the FBI's New York Field Office. Trial Attorney Matthew F. Sullivan of the Criminal Division's Fraud Section and Assistant U.S. Attorney Avi M. Perry of the District of Connecticut are prosecuting the case.
Individuals who believe that they may be a victim in these cases should visit the Fraud Section's Victim Witness website for more information.

U.S. Attorney Durham Announces Departure from Office
After serving as the United States Attorney for the District of Connecticut for more than three years, and as a federal prosecutor in Connecticut for more than 38 years, John H. Durham today announced his resignation from the U.S. Attorney's Office, effective at midnight on February 28.
"My career has been as fulfilling as I could ever have imagined when I graduated from law school way back in 1975," said U.S. Attorney Durham. "Much of that fulfillment has come from all the people with whom I've been blessed to share this workplace, and in our partner law enforcement agencies. My love and respect for this Office and the vitally important work done here have never diminished. It has been a tremendous honor to serve as U.S. Attorney, and as a career prosecutor before that, and I will sorely miss it."
Prior to his appointment as an interim U.S. Attorney in November 2017 and subsequently as the presidentially appointed U.S. Attorney in February 2018, Mr. Durham served as an Assistant U.S. Attorney in various positions in the District of Connecticut for 35 years, prosecuting complex organized crime, violent crime, public corruption and financial fraud matters. From 1978 to 1982, he served as an Assistant State's Attorney in the New Haven State's Attorney's Office, and from 1977 to 1978, he served as a Deputy Assistant State's Attorney in the Office of the Chief State's Attorney.
First Assistant U.S. Attorney Leonard C Boyle will serve as Acting U.S. Attorney upon Mr. Durham's departure.
"The Office will be in the extraordinarily capable hands of Len and our superb supervisory team who, together, guarantee that the proper administration of justice will continue uninterrupted in our District."
Mr. Boyle has served as First Assistant U.S. Attorney since June 2018, when he returned to the U.S. Attorney's Office after serving as Deputy Chief State's Attorney in Connecticut for approximately nine years. He previously served in the U.S. Attorney's Office from 1986 to 1998, and from 1999 to 2004.
Mr. Boyle is the 53rd U.S. Attorney for the District of Connecticut, an office that was established in 1789.
The U.S. Attorney's Office is charged with enforcing federal criminal laws in Connecticut and representing the federal government in civil litigation. The Office is composed of approximately 68 Assistant U.S. Attorneys and approximately 54 staff members at offices in New Haven, Hartford and Bridgeport.

Very interesting article
Surprise: Biden demands resignations from all US attorneys - except these two
All of the top presidentially appointed federal prosecutors will get pink slips in the mail as early as today, a fairly usual part of any change of administrations. Excuse me, I meant to write that it's fairly usual when a Democrat comes into the White House. Asking appointees to clear out their desks is a scandal when a Republican takes over the presidency, at least in the media.
Two lucky members of the club will get a pass, however - because Joe Biden doesn't want to look corrupt:
The Biden administration as early as Tuesday is expected to ask remaining U.S. attorneys appointed by President Donald Trump and confirmed by the Senate to begin stepping down - though the Trump-appointed federal prosecutor investigating Hunter Biden, President Biden's son, as well as the prosecutor reviewing the FBI's 2016 investigation of Trump's campaign, will be allowed to continue their work, a Justice Department official said.
While President Biden always was expected to install his own U.S. attorneys at federal prosecutor's offices across the country, the move is an indication that he intends to purge those whose politics might be more aligned with Trump's sooner rather than later.
MeH. The move is an indication that Biden understands prosecutorial discretion and the spoils of winning. It would only be unusual if Biden didn't ask for these resignations. The Trump angle is only interesting as a framing device, but if Biden had succeeded a Marco Rubio or Ted Cruz administration, he'd be doing exactly the same thing.
The hall pass given to John Durham and David Weiss is far more interesting, politically if not legally. The New York Times frames this as a return to "impartiality," but that's too gracious by half:
The Justice Department will allow John H. Durham to remain in the role of special counsel appointed to investigate the origins of the Trump-Russia inquiry, even after he relinquishes his role as the top federal prosecutor in Connecticut, according to a senior Justice Department official.
Mr. Durham is expected to step down as the U.S. attorney in Connecticut as early as Tuesday, when the Biden administration will begin to ask dozens of Trump-era U.S. attorneys who have not already quit to submit their resignations, the official said Monday.
All of the remaining U.S. attorneys appointed by President Donald J. Trump and confirmed by the Senate will be asked to tender their resignations except for David C. Weiss, the U.S. attorney in Delaware who is overseeing the tax fraud investigation into President Biden's son Hunter Biden. Acting Attorney General Monty Wilkinson called Mr. Weiss on Monday evening and asked him to remain in office, according to the official.

Nothing to see here
Justice Dept. to Keep Special Counsel Investigating Russia Inquiry
John H. Durham will remain as special counsel even as the Biden administration requests a mass resignation of U.S. attorneys. The prosecutor investigating Hunter Biden's taxes will also remain.
WASHINGTON - The Justice Department will allow John H. Durham to remain in the role of special counsel appointed to investigate the origins of the Trump-Russia inquiry, even after he relinquishes his role as the top federal prosecutor in Connecticut, according to a senior Justice Department official.
Mr. Durham is expected to step down as the U.S. attorney in Connecticut as early as Tuesday, when the Biden administration will begin to ask dozens of Trump-era U.S. attorneys who have not already quit to submit their resignations, the official said Monday.
All of the remaining U.S. attorneys appointed by President Donald J. Trump and confirmed by the Senate will be asked to tender their resignations except for David C. Weiss, the U.S. attorney in Delaware who is overseeing the tax fraud investigation into President Biden's son Hunter Biden. Acting Attorney General Monty Wilkinson called Mr. Weiss on Monday evening and asked him to remain in office, according to the official.
It is common for new presidents to replace U.S. attorneys en masse, and the request for resignations has long been expected. But Mr. Durham's and Mr. Weiss's investigations had created delicate situations for the Biden administration, which is seeking to restore the Justice Department's image of impartiality.
It is not clear exactly when the resignations, 56 in all, will take effect, or when their replacements can be confirmed by the Senate. The resignations were reported earlier by CNN.
The confirmation hearing for Judge Merrick B. Garland, Mr. Biden's nominee for attorney general, is not expected to begin for two weeks, according to a person briefed on the matter. The process has been slowed by the tumultuous transition from the Trump administration and by the second impeachment trial of Mr. Trump, which begins on Tuesday.
Since the spring of 2019, Mr. Durham has been investigating whether any Obama administration officials broke the law when they examined the Trump campaign's potential ties to Russian efforts to interfere in the 2016 presidential election.

John Durham lecture audio March 2018
Youtube video of Johns speech, the introduction was very interesting:
U.S. Attorney Durham tells mob tales during rare lecture
United States Attorney John H. Durham has kept such a low profile while handling some of the country's most infamous criminal investigations that he once made New Republic magazine's list of Washington's "most powerful, least famous people."
Durham "made his bones," as he would say, prosecuting mobsters, corrupt federal agents and former Connecticut Gov. John G. Rowland. He's been tapped by United States attorneys general to investigate topics as touchy as alleged torture and coverups during CIA investigations.
The 67-year-old Groton resident, nominated as Connecticut's top federal prosecutor by President Donald Trump and endorsed by Republicans and Democrats alike, has confined most of his public speaking to within the four walls of federal courtrooms.
As the state's U.S. attorney, Durham takes on administration duties over the state's 68 federal prosecutors and 50-odd staff members who work in courthouses in Bridgeport, New Haven and Hartford. He plans to continue trying cases and has a murder trial coming up later this year.
A week after being sworn in, Durham, perhaps realizing that his new role calls for higher visibility, delivered a lecture at the University of St. Joseph in West Hartford, a formerly all-female school that is going all co-ed this year and ratcheting up its criminal justice program.
For about an hour this past Monday, he regaled an audience with an insider's view of the widely publicized investigations that brought down mobsters James "Whitey" Bulger, Stephen "The Rifleman" Flemmi and their corrupted FBI handler, Special Agent John Connolly Jr. It was a case that extended into Connecticut, where gambling venues for the sport jai alai were infiltrated by Bulger's Winter Hill Gang.
Bodies had been piling up in Boston throughout the 1970s and 1980s, and by 1999, after it became clear that members of Boston's FBI bureau had been compromised by the Irish and Italian mafia, Attorney General Janet Reno and FBI Director Louis Freeh called on Durham and others from Connecticut to help.
"It was quite the scandal that was going up there in Boston," Durham told the audience at St. Joseph's. "We were asked to go up there because we had some familiarity with the New England LCN (La Cosa Nostra) and knew some of the judges and the investigators and so fortH. So the Justice Task Force was formed to investigate corruption involving the FBI and others."
Durham's longtime partner in crime-fighting, Deputy Chief State's Attorney Leonard C. Boyle, introduced the U.S. attorney to the university gathering as the person members of the Connecticut bar call when stumped by a legal question. Boyle said Durham has "an extreme work ethic" and is working all the time, whether in the office or at home.
Boyle said Durham has an uncanny ability to identify the smallest of facts in a case "and weave it together into a tapestry of detail," but joked that Durham's skill does not extend to his attire. Durham has a tendency to mismatch his suit jackets and trousers, Boyle said, and it's only when he's standing in a courtroom, addressing a jury, "when he realizes that particular day he wore the gray striped jacket with the Navy-blue pants."
Boyle seemed as amazed as anyone that his friend had agreed to the speaking engagement, since Durham is "notoriously shy about speaking about himself or what he does."
The University of St. Joseph's affiliation with the Catholic church may have helped.
"Other than an overwhelming commitment to the cause of justice, the two great devotions of John's life are his Catholic faith and his family," Boyle said. The Courant has reported several times that Durham also is an avid Red Sox fan.
Durham and his wife, Susan, have four sons - two of them prosecutors - and eight grandchildren.
Durham's lecture, delivered along with a PowerPoint presentation entitled "The Use of Informants: A Cautionary Tale," contained hints of his own restrained approach to investigations. Using criminals to gather information about other criminals is a necessity in cases where the average citizen is justifiably scared but,at best, is a "double-edged sword," Durham said.

Authorities Arrest Analyst Who Contributed to Steele Dossier
Igor Danchenko, a Russia analyst who worked with Christopher Steele, the author of a dossier of rumors and unproven assertions about Donald J. Trump, was taken into custody as part of the Durham investigation.
Federal authorities on Thursday arrested an analyst who in 2016 gathered leads about possible links between Donald J. Trump and Russia for what turned out to be Democratic-funded opposition research, according to people familiar with the matter. The arrest of the analyst, Igor Danchenko, is part of the special counsel inquiry led by John H. Durham, who was appointed by the Trump administration to scrutinize the Russia investigation for any wrongdoing, the people said.
Mr. Danchenko, was the primary researcher of the so-called Steele dossier, a compendium of rumors and unproven assertions suggesting that Mr. Trump and his 2016 campaign were compromised by and conspiring with Russian intelligence officials in Moscow's covert operation to help him defeat Hillary Clinton. The people familiar with the matter spoke on condition of anonymity because the indictment of Mr. Danchenko had yet to be unsealed. A spokesman for Mr. Durham did not respond to a request for comment.
Some claims from the Steele dosser made their way into an F.B.I. wiretap application targeting a former Trump campaign adviser in October 2016. Other portions of it - particularly a salacious claim about a purported sex tape - caused a political and media firestorm when Buzzfeed published the materials in January 2017, shortly before Mr. Trump was sworn in. But most of the important claims in the dossier - which was written by Mr. Danchenko's employer, Christopher Steele, a former British intelligence agent - have not been proven, and some have been refuted. F.B.I. agents interviewed Mr. Danchenko in 2017 when they were seeking to run down the claims in the dossier.
The interview suggested that aspects of the dossier were misleading: Mr. Steele left unclear that much of the material was thirdhand information, and some of what Mr. Danchenko - who was born in Russia but lives in the United States - had relayed was more speculative than the dossier implied.
A 2019 investigation by the Justice Department's inspector general sharply criticized the F.B.I. for continuing to cite material from the dossier after the bureau interviewed Mr. Danchenko without alerting judges that some of what he said had cast doubt on the contents of the dossier.
The inspector general report also said that a decade earlier, when Mr. Danchenko worked for the Brookings Institution, a prominent Washington think-tank, he had been the subject of a counterintelligence investigation into whether he was a Russian agent. In an interview with The New York Times in 2020, Mr. Danchenko defended the integrity of his work, saying he had been tasked to gather "raw intelligence" and was simply passing it on to Mr. Steele. Mr. Danchenko - who made his name as a Russia analyst by exposing indications that the dissertation of President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia contained plagiarized material - also denied being a Russian agent.

Last night was historic. The news coming out on four fronts indicates that the Deep State should be very worried. Those of us uncovering the many corrupt actions taken by President Obama's Deep State have been looking forward to this day for some time!
Last night it was as if the planets aligned against the Deep State. On four different fronts it's now clear that the crooks in the Obama Administration should be very worried.
1. The FISA Report
The first event reported is that the DOJ IG's FISA report is about to be released. FOX News reported yesterday the following -
TRENDING: Alec Baldwin's Negligent Discharge - Actor May Face Involuntary Manslaughter Charges
Justice Department Inspector General Michael E. Horowitz told Senate and House lawmakers Thursday that the process of finalizing his report into potential Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) abuses ahead of the 2016 presidential election was "nearing completion," according to a letter obtained by Fox News.
The "lengthy" draft report "concerns sensitive national security and law enforcement matters," Horowitz wrote in the letter, adding that he anticipated "the final report will be released publicly with few redactions."
Horowitz noted that he did not anticipate a need to prepare or issue "separate classified and public versions of the report."
Of course this is nothing new to those of us who have been following the Russia Hoax scandal. We knew this was eventually going to come out. The news overnight is that the report "will be released publicly with few redactions". This means that negotiations over redactions were either mute or they weren't happening.

The news overnight is that the report "will be released publicly with few redactions". This means that negotiations over redactions were either mute or they weren't happening.
Many of us thought that the "Deep State was Deep Sixing" the FISA report. Perhaps they were. But another theory is that the DOJ IG may have been held back from releasing his report until a time when it would not impede AG Barr's investigation by his DA John Durham into the Deep State actions before and after the 2016 election. Had IG Horowitz released his document before all the players in Durham's investigation were questioned, they might have altered their testimonies based on Horowitz's report.
What this piece does tell us is a few things. One, some individuals in the Deep State (i.e. two people familiar with the matter) likely want to get out to their cohorts that Durham is now running a criminal investigation. Perhaps this is to allow them time to prepare for their impending indictments. What the Times doesn't tell us is how long Durham has been running a criminal investigation.
If Durham has been running a criminal investigation for some time, perhaps there are already indictments in the works. We really don't know. What this also may indicate is that IG Horowitz can now release his IG report because Durham has met with all the individuals he needs to meet with to begin indictments for criminal activity.
3. Sidney Powell's filing Regarding General Flynn's case
We also found out late last night that Sidney Powell is aware of numerous documents and actions by Obama's Deep State that have been withheld from General Flynn that are damning to the government's case. These are so damning that she is asking the court to dismiss the case against General Flynn.
What we learned is that among other things, former Deep State and FBI attorney Lisa Page altered the 302 document materially in a manner that implicated General Flynn for lying to the FBI. She then lied about making the edits. Page of course was the paramour of the most corrupt FBI Agent in history, Peter Strzok.
We also learned from General Flynn's attorney Powell that Obama's former Director of National Intelligence, James Clapper, was involved in the felony release of General Flynn's phone call with a Russian diplomat before the 2017 Inauguration.
Both of these bombshells related to Page and Clapper were dropped tonight. It is likely that they were dropped now because the information is no longer information that can impact Durham's criminal investigation, indicating Clapper may have been interviewed already. On the other hand, perhaps the information on Clapper and Page is already locked and loaded and there is no harm in this information now being released.
We may find out that the recent delays and redactions by the DOJ in regards to Flynn's case and the IG's FISA report may have been to prevent the Durham investigation from being derailed rather than the typical Deep State redactions and delays we have been accustomed to in the recent past. Time will tell.
4. Recent Reports regarding Obama VP Biden's pay-for-play scandals
We also learned last night that Joe Biden during the time he was Obama's VP, partook in actions resulting in payments to him and his son Hunter. These payments go beyond the Ukraine and China. Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani claimed previously that Biden was suspect of a pay-for-plan scandal in Romania. NBC News last night posted this piece -
In the final year of the Obama administration, an American lawyer traveled to Romania to meet with a businessman accused of orchestrating a corrupt land deal.
The businessman was Gabriel "Puiu" Popoviciu, a wealthy Romanian real estate tycoon. The lawyer brought in to advise him was Hunter Biden, the son of then-Vice President Joe Biden, according to two people familiar with the matter.
Hunter Biden's work for Popoviciu in 2016 went unreported at the time, but Joe Biden's involvement in Romania was very much public. The vice president was among the leading voices pushing the government to crack down on corruption.
U.S. President Barack Obama, left, listens as U.S. Vice President Joseph "Joe" Biden speaks during a 21st Century Cures Act signing ceremony in the South Court Auditorium of the Eisenhower Executive Office Building in Washington, D.C., U.S., on Tuesday, Dec. 13, 2016. The bill makes new investments to address the recent opioid epidemic, accelerate discoveries in cancer research and take important steps to improve mental health and the Food and Drug Administrations drug development process.

If this is anything like the Bidens' actions in the Ukraine and China, it is suspect and likely criminal. Rudy Giuliani claimed that Obama, the Chicago 'pol', ran a pay-for-play sham his entire time in office. Rudy said his VP was making millions and his Secretary of State Hillary was making hundreds of millions. Rudy expressed this shortly after Joe DiGenova's statements about New York Rep. Ocasio-Cortez and the Democrat Party on the Ingraham Angle a couple of weeks ago -

The biggest question left unanswered is why would the Democrats and their Deep State work so hard to prevent candidate Trump from becoming President and then try to end his Presidency prematurely? Why would they put in place a phony Russian sham Special Counsel and then morph into a fake Ukraine impeachment, both of which are bogus?
It may be that they didn't want anyone to know how corrupt they were. It may be that the amount of money the Obama Administration made in pay-for-play schemes around the world will shock the average American. Is this why we constantly hear - Follow the money?
Get your popcorn ready. This is going to be devastating!
2. AG Barr and John Durham's Investigation into Deep State crimes
Last night we also received word that AG Barr's Justice Department's review into the actions of Deep State players before and after the 2016 election by DA John Durham has turned into a criminal investigation. The far-left New York Times broke the story -
For more than two years, President Trump has repeatedly attacked the Russia investigation, portraying it as a hoax and illegal even months after the special counsel closed it. Now, Mr. Trump's own Justice Department has opened a criminal investigation into how it all began.
Justice Department officials have shifted an administrative review of the Russia investigation closely overseen by Attorney General William P. Barr to a criminal inquiry, according to two people familiar with the matter. The move gives the prosecutor running it, John H. Durham, the power to subpoena for witness testimony and documents, to convene a grand jury and to file criminal charges.
Over the past few years especially, the New York Times was used by Deep State crooks in the Obama Administration to push narratives damaging to President Trump. This was really no exception as the next paragraph in the Times' piece claims that the criminal investigation is happening because "Mr. Trump is using the Justice Department to go after his perceived enemies". Of course the Times can't refer to Donald Trump as the President.

Subpoenaing the Brookings Institution, Durham Focuses on Trump-Russia Dossier
The special counsel scrutinizing the Russia inquiry, a Trump-era leftover, appears to be retreading ground that an inspector general explored in 2019.
April 12, 2021
Updated 5:17 p.m. ET
WASHINGTON - Exiled from Twitter, former President Donald J. Trump issued a sarcastic statement recently inquiring about the ongoing public silence from John H. Durham, the special counsel who has been investigating the Trump-Russia inquiry since May 2019.
"Where's Durham?" said Mr. Trump, who repeatedly predicted before last year's election that Mr. Durham's investigation would prove a deep-state conspiracy against him. "Is he a living, breathing human being? Will there ever be a Durham report?"
Mr. Durham ignored the complaint publicly, and the scope of his inquiry remains opaque. But one aspect has come into focus recently, according to people familiar with the investigation: Mr. Durham has keyed in on the F.B.I.'s handling of a notorious dossier of political opposition research both before and after the bureau started using it to obtain court permission to wiretap a former Trump campaign adviser in 2016 and 2017 and questioned witnesses who may have insight into the matter.
In particular, Mr. Durham has obtained documents from the Brookings Institution related to Igor Danchenko, a Russia researcher who worked there a decade ago and later helped gather rumors about Mr. Trump and Russia for that research, known as the Steele dossier, according to people familiar with the request.
By asking about the dossier, Mr. Durham has come to focus at least in part on re-scrutinizing an aspect of the investigation that was already exposed as problematic by a 2019 Justice Department inspector general report and led to reforms by the F.B.I. and the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court.
A spokesman for Mr. Durham declined to comment.
Asked whether the special counsel had briefed his new supervisor - Attorney General Merrick B. Garland - a Justice Department spokesman would only point to a statement by Mr. Garland as a nominee. "If confirmed," he said, "one of the first things I am going to do is speak with Mr. Durham and learn the status of his investigation."
In February, several weeks before the Senate confirmed Mr. Garland, Mr. Durham obtained old personnel files and other documents related to Mr. Danchenko from the Brookings Institution, a prominent Washington think tank, using a subpoena. Mr. Danchenko had worked there from 2005 until 2010.
Mr. Danchenko traveled to Russia in 2016 and gathered rumors about Mr. Trump and his associates on behalf of Christopher Steele, who produced the dossier as a subcontractor for an investigative firm being indirectly paid by Democrats to look into any Trump-Russia ties.

https://m.theepochtimes.com/inspector-general-horowitz-to-testify-next-month-on-alleged-fisa-abuses-graham_3150319.html
Graham, who is the chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, said Horowitz will appear publicly on Dec. 11 to discuss his findings from the investigation.
Horowitz has been investigating the FBI's use of a FISA warrant to spy on former Trump campaign associate Carter Page. The FISA applications relied on an unverified opposition research dossier that was compiled by former foreign spy Christopher Steele, who was hired by opposition research firm Fusion GPS and funded by Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign and the Democratic National Committee (DNC).
"It's my understanding that it is imminent," Barr said, reported The Hill. "A number of people who are mentioned in the report are having an opportunity to right now to comment on how they're quoted in the report, and after that process is over-it should be very short-the report will be issued."
Horowitz wasn't the only one probing the alleged misconduct into surveillance of the Trump campaign during the 2016 presidential election. Earlier this year, Barr assigned U.S. Attorney John H. Durham in Connecticut to investigate whether spying on Trump's presidential campaign in 2016 was adequately predicated.
Durham will scrutinize the conduct of several current and former senior FBI officials, including former Director James Comey, former Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, and former Deputy Assistant Director Peter Strzok. Those officials were involved in obtaining a warrant to spy on Page and deployed at least two spies to target Trump campaign adviser George Papadopoulos.

John Durham to remain as special counsel in Russia probe, but step aside as U.S. Attorney in Connecticut
EDMUND H. MAHONY - FEB 09, 2021
1/2
John H. Durham will continue as special counsel in the investigation of the origins on the Trump-Russia inquiry, but is being asked to resign as U.S. Attorney, as the Biden administration begins replacing top federal prosecutors appointed by former President Donald Trump with its own nominees.
Among the federal prosecutors appointed by Trump, only Durham and David C. Weiss, the U.S. Attorney in Delaware, whose office is directing a tax investigation of Biden's son Hunter Biden, are expected to remain with the justice department after the incoming administration asks for the resignations of the Trump appointees who have not already left.
Requests by incoming administrations for the resignations of U.S. Attorneys - the top federal law enforcement officers in their districts - are in most cases routine and Durham's office has anticipated and planned for the transition. But Durham's position directing the politically explosive inquiry into the Russia probe - and Weiss' role in the Hunter Biden investigation - presented a challenge for the Biden administration.
Durham could not be reached Tuesday to discuss his plans. His office in New Haven declined comment.
A justice department spokesman said, "Continuing the practice of new administrations, President Biden and the Department of Justice have begun the transition process for the U.S. Attorneys." An official said the remaining Trump U.S. Attorneys have been given to the end of the month to depart.
It is unclear how quickly the Biden administration will be able to move to appoint federal prosecutors; a number of lawyers in Connecticut already are maneuvering for Durham's office in New Haven. U.S. Senator Richard Blumenthal, who sits on the judiciary committee, has said the nomination of senior justice officers will take precedence over the U.S. Attorneys.
The appointment process also faces delays caused by an historic second impeachment of Trump, the trial of which is to begin in the Senate today. Senior justice nominees and U.S. Attorneys must be confirmed by the Senate.
Durham was sworn in as U.S. Attorney in February 2018 and, not long after, was brought to Washington by former U.S. Attorney General William Barr to investigate leaks of confidential law enforcement and intelligence information associated with an FBI investigation of now-discredited allegations that the Trump campaign had colluded with Russia. In May 2019, Barr appointed Durham to lead the Trump-Russia inquiry based on his experience in the leak investigation, as well as prior experience investigating the Central Intelligence Agency in 2008 and 2009.
Six months after his appointment to the Russia inquiry, Durham made news by publicly disputing the Justice Department inspector general who had concluded that the FBI was justified in opening its Russia collusion probe.
"Based on the evidence collected to date, and while our investigation is ongoing, last month we advised the Inspector General that we do not agree with some of the report's conclusions as to predication and how the FBI case was opened," Durham said.

U.S. Attorney Durham Announces Departure from Office
Department of Justice, U.S. Attorney's Office - District of Connecticut
February 26, 2021
After serving as the United States Attorney for the District of Connecticut for more than three years, and as a federal prosecutor in Connecticut for more than 38 years, John H. Durham today announced his resignation from the U.S. Attorney's Office, effective at midnight on February 28.
"My career has been as fulfilling as I could ever have imagined when I graduated from law school way back in 1975," said U.S. Attorney Durham. "Much of that fulfillment has come from all the people with whom I've been blessed to share this workplace, and in our partner law enforcement agencies. My love and respect for this Office and the vitally important work done here have never diminished. It has been a tremendous honor to serve as U.S. Attorney, and as a career prosecutor before that, and I will sorely miss it."
Prior to his appointment as an interim U.S. Attorney in November 2017 and subsequently as the presidentially appointed U.S. Attorney in February 2018, Mr. Durham served as an Assistant U.S. Attorney in various positions in the District of Connecticut for 35 years, prosecuting complex organized crime, violent crime, public corruption and financial fraud matters. From 1978 to 1982, he served as an Assistant State's Attorney in the New Haven State's Attorney's Office, and from 1977 to 1978, he served as a Deputy Assistant State's Attorney in the Office of the Chief State's Attorney.
First Assistant U.S. Attorney Leonard C Boyle will serve as Acting U.S. Attorney upon Mr. Durham's departure.
"The Office will be in the extraordinarily capable hands of Len and our superb supervisory team who, together, guarantee that the proper administration of justice will continue uninterrupted in our District."
Mr. Boyle has served as First Assistant U.S. Attorney since June 2018, when he returned to the U.S. Attorney's Office after serving as Deputy Chief State's Attorney in Connecticut for approximately nine years. He previously served in the U.S. Attorney's Office from 1986 to 1998, and from 1999 to 2004.
Mr. Boyle is the 53rd U.S. Attorney for the District of Connecticut, an office that was established in 1789.
The U.S. Attorney's Office is charged with enforcing federal criminal laws in Connecticut and representing the federal government in civil litigation. The Office is composed of approximately 68 Assistant U.S. Attorneys and approximately 54 staff members at offices in New Haven, Hartford and Bridgeport.

…
Wladislaw Surkow, eine zwielichtige Figur in der russischen Politik, soll ein Berater von Wladimir Putinund im speziellen zu Ukrainefragen sein. Er wurde als "politischer Technologe" bezeichnet, der sich mit der Beeinflussung und Manipulation der öffentlichen Meinung beschäftigt.
Beide Männer passen zu dem verallgemeinerten Profil, das im Artikel der "New York Times" enthalten ist. Die Implikationen würden sich als schwerwiegend erweisen, wenn sich einer der beiden Männer als die Quelle für Brennan erweist, während er gleichzeitig als Quelle für Steele diente.
Die "Washington Post" veröffentlichte ebenfalls einen Artikel, der die Gefahren beschreibt, die von der Anordnung des Präsidenten Trump ausgehen würden. Es wird behauptet, dass die Freigabevollmacht, die Barr gegeben wurde, "droht, US-Geheimdienstquellen aufzudecken und sie könnte dafür sorgen, dass die Rolle des FBI und der CIA bei der Untersuchung der russischen Einmischung bei den Wahlen 2016 verzerrt werden". Der Beitrag enthielt ein Leitzitat des ehemaligen FBI-General Counsel James Baker, der bemerkte: "Dies ist ein kompletter Schlag ins Gesicht für den Direktor des nationalen Geheimdienstes."
Nicht erwähnt wurde von der "Washington Post" die Tatsache, dass Baker derzeit Gegenstand einer strafrechtlichen Leckagenuntersuchung ist, die seit über 18 Monaten andauert und derzeit von John H. Durham, dem US-Staatsanwalt für den Bezirk Connecticut, geleitet wird. Ebenfalls nicht erwähnt wird die einfache Tatsache, dass sowohl die "Washington Post" als auch die "New York Times" in den letzten Jahren die primären Anlaufstellen für anonyme Lecks aus der Geheimdienstgemeinschaft gewesen sind.
Die Demokratische Partei hat ein Problem mit der vollen Wahrheit
Unterdessen versuchen die Demokraten weiterhin, die laufenden Freigabebemühungen in ein so negatives Licht wie möglich zu rücken. Und dabei wurde die Strategie hinter den anhaltenden Angriffen und Verleumdungsversuchen gegen Barr immer deutlicher - sie wurden als Abwehrenarrative gegen das, was von Barr offengelegt werden sollte, etabliert. Nehmen Sie zum Beispiel ein aktuelles Zitat des demokratischen Senators Mark Warner, stellvertretender Vorsitzender des Senatsausschusses für Geheimdienste:
"Der Präsident hat einem Generalstaatsanwalt, der bereits gezeigt hat, dass er kein Problem damit hat, selektiv Informationen freizugeben, um das amerikanische Volk in die Irre zu führen, umfassende Befugnisse zur Freigabe von Geheimnissen erteilt."
Senator Warner war bei weitem nicht der einzige, der versuchte, Barrs Untersuchung in einem negativen Licht darzustellen. Repräsentant Adam Schiff twitterte vor kurzem eine etwas unlogische Aussage und behauptete, dass mit der anstehenden Freigabe Präsident Trump die "Öffentlichkeit davon abhielt, die Wahrheit über seine Behinderung der Justiz zu erfahren", und stellte fest, dass die "Vertuschung in eine neue und gefährliche Phase eingetreten ist".
Schiff, der nicht erklären konnte, wie die Freigabe helfen würde, eine fortlaufende Vertuschung aufrechtzuerhalten, ignorierte auch seine eigene frühere Position zu Freigaben vom Dezember 2016:
"Präsident Obama kann und muss so weit wie möglich freigeben, dass Russland unsere Wahlen hackt. Seien Sie versichert, Trump wird es nicht."
Zugegebenermaßen ist der Ansatz der Demokraten zur Freigabe etwas verwirrend gewesen. Es war gerade erst vor einigen wenigen Wochen, als die Demokraten drohten, Barr anzuklagen, wenn er den Mueller-Bericht nicht vollständig freigeben würde.
Die Führung der Demokraten, die es geschafft hatte, zu ignorieren, dass eine fast vollständig unredigierte Version des Berichts ihnen in einer gesicherten Einrichtung oder SCIF zur Verfügung stand, bestand darauf, dass Barr genau die Teile, die Sonderermittler Mueller selbst redigiert hatte, freigibt. Hervorzuheben ist, dass Mueller eine Reihe von Untersuchungen an den Southern District of New York verwiesen hatte und eine Reihe von Maßnahmen zum Schutz dieser spezifischen Untersuchungen ergriffen wurden.
Jetzt mit der ausgedehnteren Freigabebefugnis an der richtigen Stelle, schreien die Demokraten Foul wegen der bevorstehenden Freigabe eines viel größeren Satzes von Informationen. Jetzt stellt sich die Frage, was genau es ist, von dem sie fürchten, dass es die Öffentlichkeit sehen kann.

That's not what it shows at all. The New York Times is straight up lying.
1) The Durham annex never states at all that the specific intelligence was "fabricated." It says the opposite, that his office was never able to "determine definitively whether the purported Clinton campaign plan [intelligence]...was entirely genuine, partially true, a composite pulled from multiple sources, exaggerated in certain respects, or fabricated in its entirety."
2) At the time the intel which Ben Smith says was "fake" was received, John Brennan took it so seriously that he briefed Obama about it, took notes about it, and stashed the notes away in his safe.
3) James Comey specifically went under oath and cited the Clinton plan intelligence as one of the major reasons he chose to unilaterally usurp the authority of Loretta Lynch and to declare that the U.S. government would not charge Hillary Clinton for her use of an illegal private email server.
4) Comey told Congress that he believed the Clinton plan intelligence was "genuine." "So far as I knew at the time, and still think," Comey testified on December 7, 2018, "the material itself was genuine[.]"
5) FBI general counsel James Baker said he was "greatly concerned" about the intel and specifically Lynch's reaction when confronted with it. Durham's report said Baker "did not dismiss the credibility" of the intel reports. Andrew McCabe likewise said he was struck by Lynch's "odd" reaction to the allegations.
6) Everyone on earth knows the Clinton campaign launched a scheme to falsely claim that Trump colluded with Russia. This new claim that somehow it was a fabrication that the Clinton campaign ran an op to falsely tie Trump to Russia is beyond insane. It's sociopathic.

WASHINGTON - When John H. Durham was assigned by the Justice Department in 2019 to examine the origins of the investigation into the 2016 Trump campaign's ties to Russia, President Donald J. Trump and his supporters expressed a belief that the inquiry would prove that a "deep state" conspiracy including top Obama-era officials had worked to sabotage him.
Now Mr. Durham appears to be winding down his three-year inquiry without anything close to the results Mr. Trump was seeking. The grand jury that Mr. Durham has recently used to hear evidence has expired, and while he could convene another, there are currently no plans to do so, three people familiar with the matter said.
Mr. Durham and his team are working to complete a final report by the end of the year, they said, and one of the lead prosecutors on his team is leaving for a job with a prominent law firm.
Over the course of his inquiry, Mr. Durham has developed cases against two people accused of lying to the F.B.I. in relation to outside efforts to investigate purported Trump-Russia ties, but he has not charged any conspiracy or put any high-level officials on trial. The recent developments suggest that the chances of any more indictments are remote.
After Mr. Durham's team completes its report, it will be up to Attorney General Merrick B. Garland to decide whether to make its findings public. The report will be Mr. Durham's opportunity to present any evidence or conclusions that challenge the Justice Department's basis for opening the investigation in 2016 into the links between Mr. Trump and Russia.
