Larry Schweikart is NYT’s #1 bestselling author. His analysis on the current FBI and DOJ scandals are outlined below in a series of fascinating tweets. Schwiekart begins his thread with a link to an article by the brilliant journalist (a dying breed), Sheryl Attkinson, that addresses how the walls are beginning to close in on the FBI. In a message to his followers, Schweikart admits his reluctance to have to dissect Attkinson’s article in a series of tweets or a “thread”. Schweikart tweets: “The last thing I wanted to do this morning was a thread, but alas, the situation requires it.”
The last thing I wanted to do this morning was a thread, but alas, the situation requires it.
Sharyl Attkisson is one of THE best reporters out there, but apparently she never reads twitter. Many of us have said this for some time . . .

Before we get started with the NY Times bestselling author, Larry Schweikart’s incredible analysis of the FBI and DOJ scandals, here’s a cheat sheet of nicknames used by Schweikart that will help to identify the players in his tweets:
Please read through to the bottom of this thread to get a very interesting perspective on the massive scandals that are blowing up inside our intelligence agencies.
2) . . . that DOJ knows exactly what is in this documentation because
SESSIONS. HAS. BEEN. INVESTIGATING. THIS. STUFF. FOR. A. YEAR.

3) The biggest new revelation she offers is that potentially ALL of the FBI's work for years may now be undone, at risk, and under scrutiny.
4) That of course would be U1, Benghazi (@CharlieDaniels ) Fast and Furious, Lynchmob's meeting with the Slickster on the tarmac . . .
— Larry Schweikart (@LarrySchweikart) January 26, 2018
5) Of course, we all know where this is leading and has been leading for eight years.
To Zero.
6) It is inescapable that once you wash off all the dung, Zero will be sticking out with a pile of interoffice memos with his slimy name checked off, meaning he viewed them.

7) If you don't know how gubment works, dozens of agencies and individuals will review even the most closely held initiatives/agenda items/strategies.
Each is sent to the Department (say, Justice or Interior) that the policy is related to. That Dept. will vet it.
— Larry Schweikart (@LarrySchweikart) January 26, 2018
8) Usually the Sec will pass it down to deputies to check to make sure a policy doesn't contradict existing law or policy; if so, they will suggest how to reconcile. Of course, you want to have plausible deniability at every level.

9) Therefore, as each policy is circulated, there is a memo attached with a signoff sheet with everyone's name (or usually, initials) on it. "HC"=Cankles, "JK"=Haughty (Kerry), "BO"=Zero and so on.

10) This was how investigators and special counsel could prove Reagan had no part in the diversion of funds in Iran-Contra. Ollie North generated a memo, but it never got past John Poindexter. "RR" was on no existing memo of the diversion.
— Larry Schweikart (@LarrySchweikart) January 26, 2018
11) Here's the thing about paperwork in gubment. You think you "got it all." But you never really do.
Some idiot, somewhere, always has the damn memo. North thought he destroyed every copy, but one surfaced and that was it. Game over.
— Larry Schweikart (@LarrySchweikart) January 26, 2018
12) So I guaran-damn-tee you, Zero has memos from the FBI, most likely Combover, High Priest (Priestep–not added to nicks yet), and MacBre (McCabe).
— Larry Schweikart (@LarrySchweikart) January 26, 2018
13) We know, via Sen. Ron Johnson's letter, that High Priest was cc-ing Zero because he said so in a text, and worse: he said he was CHANGING Zero's title from "president" to "a senior administration official" so as to keep Zero safe.
Uh oh.
— Larry Schweikart (@LarrySchweikart) January 26, 2018
14) The moron High Priest provided investigators with the Rosetta Stone, with the text equivalent of Urim and Thummim to decipher all High Priest's text.
EVERY reference to "a senior administration official" in the texts=ZERO!!!!
— Larry Schweikart (@LarrySchweikart) January 26, 2018
15) So the fact that the Hill, even though it's Attkisson, is now admitting that the DOJ knows means the damn is very close to breaking.
— Larry Schweikart (@LarrySchweikart) January 26, 2018
16) So here is a bid admission. I was wrong.
Up til now I thought the MAIN reason for not releasing stuff (the Memo) or not indicting people sooner was to protect sources, make sure everything jibed in docs internally in the case of the Memo, and . . .
— Larry Schweikart (@LarrySchweikart) January 26, 2018
16) contd: in the case of not yet indicting arresting people, that this has to be done ALL AT ONCE, in a massive mafioso-type sting.
That is all correct. But now I think I missed something bigger.
— Larry Schweikart (@LarrySchweikart) January 26, 2018
17) The reason this is taking so long is that Sessions and DOJ have a crisis far bigger than FBI/DOJ/CIA/DIA corruption/partisanship on their hands.
Not only are they looking at the possibility of criminal charges to an ex-prez . . .
— Larry Schweikart (@LarrySchweikart) January 26, 2018
18) Ponder that for just a moment, and don't be flip. This is incredibly serious stuff. ALL would have to be reopened or re-started. Benghazi, Fast & Furious, other big investigations would have to be redone if Trump requests it.
— Larry Schweikart (@LarrySchweikart) January 26, 2018
19) Virtually EVERY major criminal case the FBI brought would now be under scrutiny. You can see the defense counsels lining up across the country.
I'm betting, on top of everything else, Sessions and his team are getting ulcers over this.
— Larry Schweikart (@LarrySchweikart) January 26, 2018
20) Zero's and Combover's FBI have utterly destroyed American justice, and not just by letting Cankles walk or Lerner skate. Those are big crimes. But in terms of process and procedure their evil has screwed every aspect of justice for almost a decade now.

And there it is, Obama’s crooked FBI and DOJ all wrapped up in 20 very interesting tweets.
