have patience about this mainstreaming.

In late July, one of these scientists—who asked to be referred to as Tea Leaves, a pseudonym that would protect his relationship with the networks and banks that employ him to sift their data—found what looked like malware emanating from Russia.

But his discovery of the data was pure happenstance—a surprising needle in a large haystack of DNS lookups on his screen. “I have an outlier here that connects to Russia in a strange way,” he wrote in his notes. He couldn’t quite figure it out at first. But what he saw was a bank in Moscow that kept irregularly pinging a server registered to the Trump Organization on Fifth Avenue.

We have two source confirmation of this story now.
Notice the language. It is almost certainly a *current* FBI official

The CIA has never really liked the FBI all that much.

This is a conservative rag. But the editor in chief HATES Trump.

They have been cut in on an exclusive, it seems.

The only NEW INFO here is an update to the story that is very interesting.

First, some background
0) Sept. 28 asks Comey if Trump is being investigated for ties to Russia. Comey won't answer.

...

1) FBI has had the Abedin emails for weeks.
2) Only informed Comey (supposedly) last week.
3) Jason Chaffetz re-endorses (after un-endorsing following tape) Trump Thursday before he publically announces receipt of letter by Comey
4) Comey sends letter. Is tweeted out before ranking committee members (our side) see it.
5) Clinton campaign does NOT freak out, and immediately begin pressuring for full release
6) Story in WSJ that there is a group of FBI agents following Breitbart stories and trying to investigate Clinton over them.
7) Group is ordered to stand down, and they rebel, forcing Comey to write letter.
6) Judge to issue a warrant to release emails
7) Harry Reid sends a letter critiquing Comey and asking why there has been no follow up on a request he made about Trump ties to Russia
8) Many current and former high ranking law enforcement officials critique Comey
9) Tonight, calls for Comey to resign begin

Also, just for fun, remember there are two big opposition drops due this week. And consider this tweet from Jesse F. Ferguson
(HRC's deputy press secretary)

Sleep tight, my monkeys.

That the Trump campaign hasn't called out Harry Reid for implying they are being investigated for links to Russia?

Me? I find that very odd.

Some of the replies are insightful as well.

Republicans in poll unified, Democrats not.

It user voter intensity to determine who is a likely voter. And Trumpkin voter intensity is going to 11 right now
