This guest post by long-time community member WilliamOckham looks at domain name system (DNS) lookups in relation to John Durham's investigation. In short, nobody was hacked.

A Fox News piece trying to rebut mounting evidence that Durham failed to do basic investigative work and has bullied witnesses reveals that John Ratcliffe -- who had a key role in burning sensitive intelligence in pursuit of a conspiracy theory -- has been interviewed by Durham's team repeatedly.

Quinta Jurecic and Ben Wittes claim that Merrick Garland's DOJ has been silent about how they think of the Mueller investigation. It seems that, on the contrary, Lawfare simply isn't listening to what is being said.

Like many on the frothy right, Kash Patel is wailing about what he claims is a new disclosure from John Durham. That actually may create problems for Kash going forward. Not only is Kash a witness that Sussmann was not hiding what he did, but he is someone who -- for years -- knew about this, was in a position to do something about it, and did nothing. 

The latest release of unsealed Mueller Report passages has generated some confused reporting. What the currently unredacted passages of the Mueller Report say is that Donald Trump Jr probably committed a misdemeanor CFAA violation, but charging it would have been prosecutorial overkill. The Report also says that Mueller referred multiple issues to the DC US Attorneys Office in an attempt to answer then unanswered questions about whether Roger Stone conspired with Russia in 2016.

When DOJ IG Michael Horowitz found that Jim Comey had violated FBI policy by taking his memos documenting Trump's corruption home, Donald Trump wanted him prosecuted for it.

Even assuming Mueller packaged obstruction charges for DOJ to indict, rather than Congress to impeach, the deliberate sabotage Barr did in the interim makes most of those charges impossible. But there's good reason to believe DOJ is investigating the continuation of that very same obstruction.

As Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein would have immediately recognized, the story behind Ronna McDaniel's decision to censure Liz Cheney to protect Kathy Berden is with whom Berden was agreeing to serve as a fake elector.

The evidence doesn't support hurting workers to hike interest rates.
