@emptywheel Number chase will yield few results, recall 44 number? Terrorist plots prevented by #NSA bulk #surveillance, wittled to 1, maybe

@GarrettCobarr I think story here is fairy simple: Jim Comey told one or more MoC 147 and they passed it on, as witting or un cut-outs. -
@emptywheel So, the#FBI plays the 'telephone game?" :-) -
@GarrettCobarr Every savvy DC manipulator of the press -- and Comey is that -- uses such cut-outs. -
@emptywheel I find Director Comey especially practiced at craft of political theater, the mythos he's built from Ashcroft hospital story. -
@GarrettCobarr You and me both. He ran directly from those hospital stairs to Kollar-Kotelly's chambers to bully her into approving PRTT. -
@emptywheel What a guy. Now that is some seriously suave bullshit.

@emptywheel Find the un-named official source that supposedly leaked the info to WaPo? Why wasn't the story vetted better, is my question. -
@maggiemae802 It was a second-hand from Comey, So what Member of Congress was Comey's cut-out? -
@emptywheel Ah, to be a fly on the wall! Have a link to # being reduced to 12? I'd like to send it to someone. lol

@emptywheel Yes,please,somebody find out.Whenever I read#s like this,I always wonder what all those agents could possibly be doing. -
@emptywheel .. to in an ad-hoc project like an investigation ? [4/4] -
@Cujo359 Latest number is12 people are involved, which makes sense. But that's part of my point. 150 never made sense. -
@emptywheel Yes,& I think we're both saying this is not even close 2 the first time a number like that has cropped up in an FBI announcement
