Do you yet have a take on whether the material was initially sent to WH unmasked or masked?

The reporting on this is so all over map I don't think we can say: Prolly includes masked about refs, unmasked about refs, unmasked content

Nunes comment that he could figure it out = unmasked content probably referring to real estate and not branding focused.

No, the "he could figure it out" is by definition masked. But "POTUS-elect" might be the mask.

Wait. Hypothetically say "We'd love to invest in your family's real estate holdings if sanctions lifted." = masked by definition?

Oh, you're asking how they mask "Trump Tower"? Very good question. Corporate brands don't always get masked but I bet his does.

Kushner's family doesn't own Trump Tower - wouldn't Kiselev focus on Kushner's family, not Trump's at some point in conversation?

There's speculation Sergey Gorkov may have offered $$ to Kushner. If so, absolutely.

But in that case it'd be question of whether 666 Fifth would be masked. I suspect it would be.

Right. Saying suppose Gorkov offers to invest in family real estate. Mentions ownership by father to keep it quiet. Narrows it down, right?

Right. Lots of masked names are going to be guessable, esp if context is really limiting.
