Two Twitter threads on the Crossfire Hurricane / SpyGate operation From Shem Horne: Crossfire Hurricane was working with the Department of the Treasury to access the private banking records of US citizens without warrants. And after they were caught, Treasury retaliated by banning FinCEN from its networks: Officials at FinCEN said that after they began raising alarms, OIA began shutting them off from classified networks. That lack of access, which BuzzFeed News reported last week, meant FinCEN officials were unable to fully respond to law enforcement agencies during several live terrorist attacks over the last year. It also prevented FinCEN from fully complying with the Senate investigation into possible collusion between Donald Trump’s campaign and Russia. From the War Economy: Several people of interest attended the Aspen Security Forum shortly before Crossfire Hurricane began. Personally, I find it interesting that Director Brennan, Secretary Jeh Johnson, Lisa Monaco and Director Clapper all attended the Aspen Security Forum, just in time for Crossfire Hurricane and the Situation Room meetings...  Remember, this takes place between July 27 to July 30, 2016. What happened on July 31, 2016? Crossfire Hurricane opened. A bonus thread from TheLastRefuge2: Understanding Spygate, the big picture.
