So that's new.
I think the big news today are the disclosures by acting U.S.
Attorney Lindsay Halligan in the Eastern District of Virginia.
She's the one who brought that two-count criminal indictment.
Against James Comey, a lot of motions and briefs, you know, filing fast and furious.
Jim Comey last month seeking a filed a motion to dismiss based on selective prosecution.
Lindsay Halligan filed the government's response yesterday.
She absolutely did.
And I've been posting this.
I know Mike Davis has posted it, and you've talked to him as well.
And that is the exhibits that Lindsay Halligan attached to this
the government's response.
And these contain text messages between Dan Richmond, the Columbia Law professor who also was a special FBI employee.
He was Jim Comey's conduit between whatever Comey wanted to pitch to the media and whatever the media published, especially Michael Schmidt at the New York Times.
There's text messages back and forth.
These disclosures really give a view into Jim Comey's extensive
leak operation out of the FBI to spin the Clinton email investigation, to plant the seeds about the Trump Russia collusion investigation, and then, of course, to protect himself and have himself portrayed in a positive light because he was under fire from both sides at that time.
But the big revelation, I think, is the notes that Jim Comey took
either during a meeting or some sort of call on September 26, 2016.
And that, again, confirmed that he understood that this Russiagate information was being seeded by Hillary Clinton, her campaign, the notes there.
