What difference does it even make. Sussmsan's lawyers say he worked on the white papers, but did not bill them for the half hour he met with Baker. Nothing in his billing records for that day say met with FBI.

They still have the email, Baker testimony, etc.

Suppose he did lie about who represented? Does not seem to be material.

I do think the Clinton campaign was trying to dig up dirt on Trump.  That is called American politics.

So you’re saying it’s ok and trying to justify it in that instance and saying it’s “just American politics,” and then turning around and doing the complete opposite in the other instance. All based on your political views and motives. Kewl.

Marcy included the full briefing document in her post.  Just click the link.
https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/22035567-dx-524

In a separate post, Marcy indicated that there are actually two versions of the notes that purportedly caused Gaynor to change his mind about there being a close hold and on what source that close hold was on.

There’s Defense Exhibit 524, which has a slew of Bates stamps, and 7 redactions.
https://www.emptywheel.net/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/Redacted-CHS-1.png

Then there's Government Exhibit 279, which has no Bates stamp at all (and lacks the protective order stamp that appears on the other pages of the exhibit).
https://www.emptywheel.net/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/Hide-the-Bates-Stamp-2.png

Marcy says the unredacted bits in the Government Exhibit "reveal discussions of the informant and recognition that the statements of the informant “likely triggered” the press attention."  Marcy was wondering if the exhibit that was viewed by Gaynor and entered into evidence actually looked like this one does.

Good luck to the jury sorting out this mess. 

And how many people open the link ? 1 % ?
The CHS ( confidential human source) was likely Joffe, who was terminated as a CHS due to going to the media.
It was a 2 pronged approach. Sussman takes Joffe's work to the FBI and Joffe takes it to the media.

Are you projecting? Did you think years of hearings into whitewater, the travel office, FBI files, bimbo eruptions, Benghazi and so on were kewl? I did at the time, but got burnt out.

It is just American politics. The Dems threw all those ethics charges against Gingrich before something vague stuck. His eventual replacement turned out to be a pedophile.

I once thought it started with  Gary Hart, but it goes back to the founders. Election of 1800,  John Adams allegedly called Thomas Jefferson “a mean-spirited, low-lived fellow, the son of a half-breed Indian squaw;" while Jefferson said Adams was a "hideous hermaphroditic character with neither the force and fitness of a man, nor the gentleness and sensibility of a woman.”

They were actually friends too. It got personal between Aaron Burr and Alexander Hamilton.

And I've read that the Staples purchase was billed to the Clinton campaign.
Gerstein doesn't say who that purchase was billed to. He also doesn't say that it was not billed to the campaign.

How soon we forget Paul Manafort. And, of course, Jr. and Manafort were just talking about adopting Soviet kids in that meeting with Soviet agents in Trump Tower.
Here's your Manafort link.

The Russkis try to influence every election, not just 2016. He indicted a bunch of Russkis that will never see the US, much less a US courtroom. Bfd.

Nonetheless, he is still 10 convictions/guilty pleas behind at the end of the day. Now granted, with all the grifters attracted to Trump who is a grifter, it was like shooting fish in a barrel.

That's some serious re-lingo.

What's the origin of the word "Chief". Certainly for centuries it meant the head of an Indian tribe, but is it a borrowed word into the English language?

It's a decent leap from "CEO" (Chief Executive Officer) to "Kansas City Chiefs" (logo is an arrowhead).

I know of a firm doing a lot of re-lingo, for example there is not a "blacklist" or "whitelist" of tests, it's a "passlist" and "denylist"

I guess the word chief is caput.

Wasn't there just a recall election out there because of shit just like this?

Citation please?  Link to the proposed ordinance would also be helpful.
