#1 A most comprehensive assessment. Numerous pieces of the puzzle coming together rather quickly. I suspect people are accepting gov't immunity and talking.

Unless I missed it, I didn't see anything on Gina Haspel. She was Brennan's pick for rare back-to-back tours as London's Chief of Station. Later, Brennan recommended her for Director. Anything having to do with "former MI6 employee" Steele would have likely crossed her desk.

More digging please.

#3 Perjury has a 5 year statute of limitations (under Federal law).

Sedition has no statute of limitation (under Federal law) but, I think requires that there be an overall plan and some degree of force or implication of force.

Insurrection implies a revolt against govt authority and I think a degree of force also.

Conspiracy requires that it done toward some other crime. I'm not sure it it can be paired with Sedition.

Any constitutional lawyers want to help out on this?

#4 "Alleged"

If you have the money, take that out, let them sue, and let discovery begin.

#7 Obama and Brennan, unmarked airplanes in the middle of the night. What did they purchase ?

AP (6 Sept 2016)- US payment of $1.7 billion to Iran made entirely in cash

The Obama administration acknowledged late Tuesday that its transfer of $1.7 billion to Iran earlier this year was made entirely in cash, using non-U.S. currency, as Republican critics of the transaction continued to denounce the payments.

Treasury Department spokeswoman Dawn Selak said in a statement the cash payments were necessary because of the “effectiveness of U.S. and international sanctions,” which isolated Iran from the international finance system.

The $1.7 billion was the settlement of a decades-old arbitration claim between the U.S. and Iran. An initial $400 million of euros, Swiss francs and other foreign currency was delivered on pallets Jan. 17, the same day Tehran agreed to release four American prisoners.

#10 My sense is that as the leaks spread, old wounds, career ruination revenge, enemies lists and job protection document copies are bubbling up across the IC and LE agencies. I'm reminded of the video of Navy damage control training with the Team-Obama faces.

#11 This article reads a lot like the early 1970's WaPo articles about Nixon and Watergate. What did the President know and when did he know it? Too bad Baraq is out of office now so he cannot be forced to resign like Nixon did. Any further punishment is highly unlikely and the MSM will certainly keep a lid on the entire sordid affair. Woodward and Bernstein will have nothing to say about it.

#12 I assume Zero updated the original 2019 Epoch Times article, which was already comprehensive.

#13 Appears to be an unchanged copy of the 2019 article, liked in the Zero article. The last paragraph appears identical -

Virtually every FBI and NSD official with material involvement in the original Carter Page FISA application would later be removed—either through firing or resignation.

So it needs an update!
