Judge Rules FBI Agent Who Conspired With Meta (FaceBook) to Bury Hunter Biden Story Can Be Deposed in Lawsuit

Weird how Christopher Wray is completely disinterested in this.

A federal judge on Monday ruled in favor of deposing an FBI agent accused of "colluding" with social media companies to suppress the Hunter Biden laptop story.
Judge Terry A. Doughty of the Western District of Louisiana ruled that FBI Assistant Special Agent in Charge Elvis Chan must be deposed under oath for his alleged involvement in coordinating with Meta to censor the Hunter Biden laptop story prior to the 2020 election.
"Chan had authority over cybersecurity issues for the FBI in the San Francisco, California region which includes the headquarters of major social-media platforms and played a critical role for the FBI in coordinating with social-media platforms related to censorship," Doughty wrote in his Monday court order. "Even if Chan played no role in the Hunter Biden laptop communication issue, he may have knowledge of who did, and his deposition is nonetheless warranted."

The decision relates to a lawsuit filed in May against the Biden administration. In that suit, Republican Attorneys General Eric Schmitt of Missouri and Jeff Landry of Louisiana accused top-ranking government officials of working with the giant social media companies Meta, Twitter and YouTube "under the guise of combating misinformation" in order to achieve greater censorship.
On Oct. 10, the AGs identified Chan and 46 defendants in the suit. Chan was cited for his alleged "critical role" in "coordinating with social-media platforms relating to censorship and suppression of speech on their platforms."
The court on Oct. 21 authorized Chan's deposition, but Chan's attorneys filed a motion to reconsider that ruling, which was denied on Monday.

Chan argued through his lawyer that Meta claimed that he was not the agent who colluded with them.

But note that no one is here under oath saying that -- his lawyer is citing a claim made by Meta, not made under oath. (And a disputed claim to boot.)

The judge pointed out, correctly, that if he wasn't the agent who told Meta to bury the Hunter Biden laptop story, he can just say that under oath and have a very quick and easy deposition.

But of course he can't say that under oath, which is why he's attempting to avoid the deposition entirely.

27 Early in the thread, but I thought this was very interesting. It was assumed that Russia vacated Kherson and the west bank of the Dnieper because it was indefensible and they couldn't supply their troops with the bridges under fire. Those bridges have now been destroyed, but instead of taking up positions on the east bank, they're apparently pulling back another 15-20 km (I haven't see confirmation on this other than the one article). The supposition is that they're trying to get out of range of Uke artillery on the west bank. However, they won't be out of range of HIMARS or other assets, and the Ukes will almost certainly establish a bridgehead on the east bank as soon as they can. This will bring the Ukes even closer to cutting off Crimea.

Can anyone make sense of this from a military perspective?

In the short run, inviting Ukraine to cross. They're also fine exchanging artillery fire due to their sheer quantity, even if their artillery is less advanced than ours.

Ukraine crossing is no more prudent than when the Russians did it.

49 Diplomatically, there are reports that Putin has been “offered surrender terms by the West,” although “surrender” is too strong a word.

• Plan would see Russia give up all territory in Ukraine except Crimea, which would become demilitarised zone.

• In return, Putin and cronies would avoid war crimes prosecution and remain in power, Valery Solovey claimed.

This would be a peace deal — not a surrender of Russian forces, occupation of Moscow, or anything like that.

Posted by: SMOD

I thought I'd willow someone else's post, because it's very interesting. Is Putin getting close to throwing in the towel? Also, I doubt the Ukes will accept the loss of Crimea. They might accept something like in former Yugoslavia, where the UN takes over as a peace keeper, but this would be solely a fig leaf for Putin. Sooner or later, it'll revert to Ukraine.

I've been wondering how the Ukes would continue the offensive with the Dnieper in the way, but now it'll be much less of a challenge, and they clearly have the military momentum. I figured the river was the best chance the Russians had of holding them off, and now, they seem to have given that away.

93 The supposition is that they're trying to get out of range of Uke artillery on the west bank. However, they won't be out of range of HIMARS or other assets, and the Ukes will almost certainly establish a bridgehead on the east bank as soon as they can. This will bring the Ukes even closer to cutting off Crimea.

Can anyone make sense of this from a military perspective?

Trap, any crossing with be concentrated and it will be Ukes that have problems with logistics. Also gives a breather to Russian troops and allows redeployment to other theaters. I think Kherson was a political prize not a strategic one unless the Russians were planning on rolling up the Ukes all the way to Odessa. Once that option closed, little sense in retaining it as logistics would be difficult and the troops would be in meatgrinder where the Ukes would be able to probe and attack at weak points but the Russians were stuck due to difficulty in reinforcement and logistics.

Smart move by Russia for a change.

Husbanding ammunition doesn't necessarily mean they're out, could indicate they're low. We had a couple battles in the American Revolution where we started firing much closer due to being low on ammo, still able to put up a good fight from the right positions.

I mean the Ukrainians could gamble on them being nearly out of ammo and try to cross and push as rapidly as possible so it doesn't end up with them pressed against a river(Russia sitting just over the river was their mistake, leads me to believe they didn't originally plan to take the city and opted to when it looked like Ukraine might capitulate), but I don't think is a bet most generals would take.

Posted by: Archimedes
------------------------
Not really, the Russians have been having difficulties in getting the Ukes to concentrate. A trans Dneipr assault would do that for them so the Russians could use their traditional artillery barrages and missiles effectively. By trying to contest the entire Dneipr bank with forward deployed troops risked what the Germans did in Fortress Europa. Spreading everywhere is a recipe for weakness and if no mobile reserve exists, is a recipe for failure.

169 "There is almost no penalty for lying in a deposition. In theory there is. In practice? Nope."

But if he lies or obfuscates in the deposition, doesn't the trial (at least in theory) expose this?

Not all of these people are top level, insulated guys like McCabe or zealots or sociopaths like Strock who are capable of lying through their teeth for hours under oath and losing no sleep.

It does seem futile playing against the stacked deck, but keep grinding away. If a few of these jerks are perp walked, perhaps lose their jobs and pensions, more of the rank and file and supposed ham and eggers may decide its easier to just do your job right - and maybe take a stand - than risk everything.

I understand the cynicism and share much of it. I'm simply encouraging those who have the will and ability (like Schmitt and Landry) to keep going. They have my support.

170 150 "One of the YouTube Ukraine War observers indicated that the Ukrainian Forces had cross the Dnieper River and had landed in Crimea."

I saw that, if you're referring to that small peninsula at the mouth of the Dnieper. They were special forces, and they were running up the peninsula, liberating towns, but I couldn't see how that was sustainable in the long term without a major push and logistical support.

That's a much better play than a direct crossing. Smaller forces conducting skirmishes and guerilla operations crossing piecemeal. You need intel and to force the Russians into specific positions to create a safe crossing location (which is still a hell of a mountain to climb even when doing it correctly). Keep poking in the hopes they make a mistake.

208 I've been wondering how the Ukes would continue the offensive with the Dnieper in the way, but now it'll be much less of a challenge, and they clearly have the military momentum. I figured the river was the best chance the Russians had of holding them off, and now, they seem to have given that away.
Posted by: Archimedes at November 15, 2022 01:19 PM (eOEVl)

------------------------------

They're sticking their heads into the same noose that Surovikin just pulled his forces west of the Dneiper out of. It's relatively easy to cross near Kherson, because the river is narrow and shallow there.

The danger for the Russians was that the UAF blows the Kharkova dam and washes out all fixed and pontoon bridges, trapping 30,000 troops on the Kherson side, with no ability to reinforce or supply except by air.

If Ukraine starts pushing significant amounts of troops and materiel across, they risk being stuck on the wrong side of a now 2-mile wide river that's impossible to bridge.

Every attempt they make to land troops near Energodar or the Kinburn spit, where the river is that wide gets detected and destroyed almost to the last man.

209 "But that's assuming you think you are a match for the other side."

Huh? No, not at all. It is what it is - sound and normal defensive deployment. River crossings would only ever be targets of indirect fire, not direct attack on the ground. So the deployment as far as I can see is normal for the situation.

I think it's unrealistic to believe there is a large disparity between Ukrainian and Russian troops. Russians are probably getting a better casualty ratio (American Revolution is another decent reference) but these are extremely similar civilizations, born of the same military structures in relatively recent time periods.

Ukraine has been able to rely on a numbers advantage from drafting huge numbers of people, whereas Russia started this war with something approximating parity to Ukraine's standing forces. As Russia's recent call up fills out the lines, it'll turn more into a purely logistical affair.

You are very likely correct on the state.of the Russian forces, but if they are fighting IAW their doctrine, they will establish a main defensive belt about 15-20 kms from the front line (in this case the river). This allows their artillery to range throughout the depth of the security zone that is the area from just across the river to their main defensive line.

No, I can't confirm that all of this isn't Uke propaganda, but that seems like a pretty big stretch.

The Ukrainians are surviving, thus growing in military wisdom and skill; plus, being a literate people are able to assimilate and share training from professional advisors.

On the other hand, Russian's best have been attritted leaving it dependent on conscripts.

I worked for ADM for a few years. For all the blather about "safety", they would cut every cost corner when it came to protecting the workers. And then when something happened, they paid off OSHA (via politicians) to get by with little or no penalty.

252 225 "As Russia's recent call up fills out the lines, it'll turn more into a purely logistical affair."

The difference is that the Ukes are fighting for their homes, and the conscript Russians are wondering why the hell they're there. There really isn't much doubt about the dramatic disparity in morale.
Posted by: Archimedes at November 15, 2022 01:45 PM (eOEVl)

The Ukrainian conflict has lots of trenches involved. Main vulnerabilities of the Russians are due to front-size vs troop count.

You just can't break trenches like the Napoleonic warfare and prior days where morale was king, not without tanks.

On paper, assuming Russia didn't escalate further(big assumption), Ukraine could win if provided with a couple thousand tanks. The West has consistently denied requests of this nature, possibly out of fear of escalation.

311 Given how cautious they've been in assaults I'd be seriously skeptical of any reports regarding use of barrier troops. Russia has generally been acting extremely casualty sensitive. If they were willing to tolerate higher losses they could have closed things out much more quickly.

Agreed, skepticism is in order, but again, British MoD and intercepted phone calls suggest that there is truth to the reports.

313 I don't see anything unusual about the main line of resistance being well to the rear of the forward line of troops. It is completely normal in both American and Russian tactics to have an area for a mobile covering force in front of the main defensive fortifications. That does not mean that you are giving up that ground. It just means that you are forcing the enemy, when he attacks, to extend his distance from his own artillery and logistics before he hits your main defenses.

315 A man was killed when he fell into a vat of molten iron at his job site. The worker was reportedly moving a sample of iron from a furnace when he fell into a melting pot of molten iron that was heated to more than 2,000 degrees Fahrenheit. The 39-year-old was "immediately incinerated," according to a press release by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration.

That was like Uncle Mickey. He fell into a vat of whiskey. Every time they tried to get him out, he swam into the middle.

Ukes captured about 440 intact tanks of various kinds, 650 other armored vehicles in Kharkov battles in Sept. About a 100 or so modernized T72 Czech tanks are being supplied by the latest arms deal apparently. About half the Uke tank force is composed of captured Russian tanks and probably the disabled ones left by departing forces gives quite a bit of spare parts to keep them running.

Not the several thousands that you estimate they need though. Not sure that many tanks are even around anymore in the West.

330 Russia has generally been acting extremely casualty sensitive. If they were willing to tolerate higher losses they could have closed things out much more quickly.

But the reports are that they're being very careless with the lives of the conscripts. Just recently, their conscripts mutinied because their officers had stupidly used them and lost about 300 men.

I'm more inclined to their apparent reticence is because they simply lack the ability to mount serious offensives now. Their equipment situation is catastrophic, e.g. sending men to the front without weapons or training.

My favorite one of those was in Utah. It was a billboard advising that people be cautious in construction zones. It showed a picture of a construction worker in a work zone and read, "These guys don't have airbags. Go slow through the Cone Zone!"

So far, nothing unusual. Then you get to the bottom of the billboard. Down there you would see, "Brought to you by the Utah Worker's Compensation Commission."

Essentially when Russia conceded the offensive to Ukraine in September, their front was overextended. So, the Russians behaved as they have in the past but their decentralized way of recalling reserves and conscripts based on region was haphazardly done leading to training and supply collapses. Apparently politics has also limited callups and conscription in St. Peterburg and Moscow areas which means a lot of non Russian ethnics from across the Federation are being snared instead.

My guess is that you are getting a real mixed bag from this which does not do much for unit cohesion and functioning.

Lots of wishcasting still happening on this whole thing, which I find puzzling. But the lack of wider significance, and the already cast mixed results for Russia, haven't changed. Russia loses big strategic goal, which was an extreme longshot anyway, but gains its smaller objectives - possibly a *bit* more. Uke situation isn't sustainable and they will unlikely ever get to status quo ante in the east.

You can go out and buy publicly offered investments in coastal property.
Banks will also loan money to fund those investments.

If global warming was real:

2) banks wouldn't dare lend on that risk ( even with floodinsurance)-- but all of them do.

He replied that he thought the path forward should be easy because it looked as though everybody was in agreement. His host replied that the nodding was meant to signal that they understood what he was saying .. not that they agreed with it.
