All of these people are absolute clowns. If Halligan actually reported to anyone at Justice I'm sure they would have told her not to do this. (Seriously? reaching out to one fairly obscure reporter who was just retweeting/commenting on a NYT story? What did she possibly hope to accomplish?) But the sheer presumptuousness to just assume that if you send Signal texts the reporter won't screenshot them? Or that you don't have to agree to a conversation being off the record in advance? And the laughable insistence that the reporter "fact check" by just...taking Halligan's word for it? (News to me that anyone in the Trump admin thinks anything at all has to be fact checked before someone says it, by the way.)

Just the blind leading the blind, all throughout the administration. These prosecutions Halligan is leading are going to be an absolute farce.

As with most things in the Trump Administration, it's simply incompetence on an incomprehensible scale.

But it is clearly what happens when loyalty to the president is the only metric used in hiring and when no one with any skills or future wants to be connected to this administration.
 


“… The Interagency Weaponization Working Group, which has been meeting since at least May, has drawn officials from the White House, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, the Central Intelligence Agency, the Justice and Defense Departments, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Department of Homeland Security, the Internal Revenue Service and the Federal Communications Commission, among other agencies, two of the documents show.

… Shortly after Reuters asked the agencies for comment on Monday, Fox News reported the existence of the group, citing Gabbard as saying she "stood up this working group." Key details in the Reuters story are previously unreported.


“None of this reporting is new,” said a White House official, speaking on condition of anonymity.

ODNI spokeswoman Olivia Coleman said, “Americans deserve a government committed to deweaponizing, depoliticizing and ensuring that power is never again turned against the people it’s meant to serve.”

The existence of the interagency group indicates the administration’s push to deploy government power against Trump’s perceived foes is broader and more systematic than previously reported. Interagency working groups in government typically forge administration policies, share information and agree on joint actions….”

So Reuters gets the story, calls the Administration for comment, Admin runs out and gives the story to Fox to publish first and then call the Reuters story “old news”.

BIDEN, COMEY, OTHERS REPORTEDLY DISCUSSED​

Among those discussed by the interagency group, the source said, were former FBI Director James Comey; Anthony Fauci, Trump's chief medical advisor on the COVID-19 pandemic; and former top U.S. military commanders who implemented orders to make COVID-19 vaccinations compulsory for servicemembers. Discussions of potential targets have ranged beyond current and former government employees to include former President Joe Biden's son, Hunter, the source said.

A senior ODNI official disputed that account and said there was “no targeting of any individual person for retribution.”

“IWWG is simply looking at available facts and evidence that may point to actions, reports, agencies, individuals, etc. who illegally weaponized the government in order to carry out political attacks,” the official said….”

“… The source recalled the group being told that the ODNI, which oversees the 18-agency U.S. intelligence community, had begun using what they called “technical tools” to search an unclassified communications network for evidence of the “deep state” and hoped to expand its search to classified networks known as the Secure Internet Protocol Router, or SIPRnet, and the Joint Worldwide Intelligence Communications System, or JWICS.

The ODNI official disputed this as inaccurate and “not how the systems operate.” Reuters could not obtain independent information about the tools.

… Another focus for the interagency group was retribution for the prosecution of the Jan. 6 rioters, said the source.

Bondi tasked the DOJ Weaponization Working Group with reviewing the J6 prosecutions. Some of the documents seen by Reuters show that a smaller sub-set of employees from across the government have been convening on the topic. The Justice Department denied in its statement to Reuters that a separate January 6 group exists.

Among other issues the source recalled being discussed were the Jeffrey Epstein files, the prosecutions of Trump advisers Steve Bannon and Peter Navarro, and the possibility of stripping security clearances from transgender U.S. officials. Reuters could not independently confirm these were the subject of discussions….”

Fox News buried their “scoop” — it is not on the front page and I had to search to find it.
I read some of the comments. Yikes! Everything is a conspiracy theory.

"Biden WEAPONIZED the DOJ, FBI, Soros appointed judges and Soros appointed prosecutors against Former President Trump, religious groups, religious people, Conservatives, Independents and parents attending school board meetings."
