21:38:51, Sun IMy sense is stay in ogc. lt's what Trisha .wants - does JB
has a preference? - and l'm guessing but not certain it will be easier
from a HR Source admin per.spective as well. And as long as they get
plussed up fsl, they shouldn't care, riglit?

2016-01-24 OUTBOX No, you misunderstand. l got this email, muckities from other agencies
21:53:27, Sun were on it, as w ere Trisha and Jim, but couldn't decide whether to

. forward it and went back and forth bc t didn't want to step on toes or
overstep if Jim had already forwarded, but Jim also isn't great at
eheeking email over the weekend so l ended up text andy rather than
just forwarding the email to him to ask whether he had received it or
not. lf t'm not in ogc, l don't think 1'11 have the sa me what's. my roie, am
l overstepping st.ress. l just really want to be called his speeial eounsel
and not just special assistant, and l'm not sure Jim will let me.

2016-01-24 INBOX B) fortunately there will still be snow tomorrow. \nA) special counsel
21:57:26, Sun implies an ogc position, though, right? And would you get those emails
if you weren't in OGC? Regardless, that worry about lane will resolve
itself out once you get a ehance to start working. One of those
impossible to know now. B.ut it will be tine. l promise.

2016-01-24 INBOX ts your title that big a deal to you at the end of the day? Not saying it
21:59:19, Sun shouldn't be, just trying to understand where it ranks within your
oriorities.
2016-01-24 OUTBOX t'm not sure l agree. lf trisha's whole point of putting L Jhere is to
22:01:53, Sun ensure more reliance on ogc, t'm not sure she's embrace me acting
pretty independently, which is the only way t know how to be. Will
forward a couple of emaits - not a perfect example but maybe a littte
demonstrative. There are other " special counsels", the D's, one in OCA. .
l'm sure they're grandfathered, but l don't think Jim or especially trisha
will want me to suggest t'm a lawyer if I'm notin ogc.

2016-01-24 OUTBOX Pretty important to me, actually. Especially if l plan to leave the bureau,
22:05:23, Sun t want my titte to reflect the work l'm doing. Wtf is a special assistant to
the private sector? Chief of staff would be tine, but 1) that's not t he job.
1'11 be doing and 2) Rybicki has made pretty clear he's opposed to me
using that titte. l'm a lawyer, it's my identity, it's what l'd like to call
'v

2016-01-24 INBOX Completely understand. So stay in OGC and be special eounsel. Why
22:12:54, Sun does JB not want that? Partieularly if that means they have some
connection to your job? A lot of OGC are dummies but Jim and Trisha
are not and vou can work with both of them ...

2016-01-24 .OUTBOX l'm not sure you're following me. l imagine JB and TA WILL want me to
22:17:18, Sun stay in ogc. What l'm saying is l don't want to second guess or worry
about whether l am stepping on their toes, especially trisha bc she's so
hard to read, and is still developing her relationships with our execs,

2016-01-24 ·INBOX Oh, l've got you. l don't have an easy answer, particularly if you want
22:21:59, Sun the special counsel titte. lfyou do, l think you likely needtobe in OGC,
and you're going to have to feel out the relationships. JB will be much
easier than Trisha.
2016-01-24 INBOX Because in some ways you are going to step on Trisha's toes. But l think
22:23:32, Sun if Andy is clear with what he wants (amd i think he will be) that will help
tremendouslv.
2016-01-24 OUTBOX Yes, she is entirely my worry. l've done this job with Jim as GC, and he is
22:24:48, Sun the least egotistical and most secure/non- threatened guy. We get each
other. lt's trisha who will feel threatened. Pius woman thing.

2016-01-24 OUTBOX l guess re Andy. But he respects hierarchy a lot too.

2016-02-03 OUTBciX l really truly hate l jHe is good ai nothing, ineffeetive at ·
01:50:11, Wed everything he does, and phenomenally laekingin self-awareness.

2016-02-03 INBOX l of eourse forgot it. Will need to ask when l'm not obviously on my
01:51:49, Wed phone. She didn't remember his last name...\n\nAnyway... is an
ahole. Always will be. There is literally nothing you can do to change
him or his opinion. And people realize he's a d*eK - so it truly becomes
an issue of judging someone by their enemies. While it may drive you
CRAZY, may be best simply torise above this (never forget it) and take
thi:> hiahi:>r rn;;irl
2016-02-03 INBOX Agreed. So why do you give him any power over.vou?
01:51:57, Wed
2016-02-03 INBOX He is inconsequential. His opinion holds no value to anyone worth a
01:53:19, Wed damn. He is one of the unfortunate dregs of society, and the fact that
he behaves this way towards you does nothing but spea k well of you.

2016-02-03 INBOX Aaters gonna hate. Shake it off. ;)

01:53:39, Wed
2016-02-03 OUTBOX Hanest to god, l'm not this time. F him. The Deputy Director picked ME
01:55:16, Wed to work for him, and l goddamn earned it, and he will never be asked to
manage anything important fortherest of his career at the FBI. The
swirl is whether to say anything to trisha. Of course now l'rn leaning
h;;irk no
2016-02-03 OUTBOX Good sumrnary ofl l Not why they leave Snowden
02:01:04 Wed entirelv out of it, but that's whv that DB max schrems sued ...
2016-02-03 INBOX Lisa, that's all true. And if you want to rub his nose in it and destroy
02:02:21, Wed him, you can. This is not the moment. But honest to God l think that's
the wrong choice. \n\nWhy do you think he's such a little prick? Exactly
BECAUSE he will never be asked to manage anything important at the
FBI. Feel sorry for him, not angry at him. He is displaying HIS weakness,
his flaws, his shortcomings. Nothing else. Float past it unperturbed like
the all star you are. Success is the best revenge.

2016-02-03 INBOX Andc::::J the higher yo u are, the more visible. The greater the number
02:06:48, Wed of fans. And the greater number of dB haters. This isa good baptism by
fire. Because he's such a n ass, hopefully it's easier to rnove past. lf the
thought of him gets you down, then think of the response you got from

2016-02-03 INBOX Why does HE bother you so?
02:17:58. Wed
2016-02-03 OUTBOX They all do. lt's not just him. Honestly, because J'm painted unfairly.
02:23:07, Wed And l KNOW it's because of jealousy and l KNOW there's nothing l can
do about it. But my sense of fa irness is as foundational a part of me as
literally any single trait Jcan thi.nk of. lt's why l'm in government, why
public service isa ealling for me. So l think it is just very hard for me to
let go when samething is unfair.

2016-03-18 INBOX Finally leaving. As l think about going away, l remember that we have
01:38:11, Fri moved around interviews so that l can be there for them. Those are the
things l needtobe present for.\n\nThe question remains whether l
needtobe here for this, or not need to, but s h o u l d . -

2016-03-18 OUTBOX Drive safely. \n\nThis case is fungible, possibly sooner than later: Your
01:49:16, Fri tamil is not. You need to o.
2016-03-18 INBOX Yeah, but you know what bugs me? lf you weren't in there, who is .
01:52:09, Fri supposed to point out all the doubts and qualifications about the
reporting, all the potential misinterpretations and exaggerations? that
person needs to be in the room. l understand it could be you, but it
could be me or somebody else at that level. They should have the
benefit of that type of nuance and information, and clearly they don't,
or at least they don't enough. They're certainly not getting it outof the
so-called senior leaders who are sitting raund that table beside Andy.

2016-03-18 OUTBOX Jim does nuance. l'm not the only one in the room .
02:05:04 Fri
2016-03-18 INBOX But Jim doesn't get the reporting, does he? Saying hey this isn't a raw
02:16:17 Fri cut, all the o ortunities for error/exa eration?
2016-03-18 INBOX Thought of the perfect person D can bounce this off of
11:31:26, Fri
2016-03-18 OUTBOX Who?
11:31:55, Fri
2016-03-18 INBOX Pat\n\nYou gotta give me credit if we go with him. \n\nAnd delay
11:37:51, Fri briefing him on until l can get back and do it. Late next week or later.

2016-03.-18 OUTBOX We talked about him last night, not for this, but how great he is. He's in
11:38:49, Fri private practice though, right? Suppose you could still bring him back.
And es 1'11 hoid.
2016-03-18 INBOX Yes, he's at Skadden in Chicago. l haven't talked to.him for a year or
11:57:54, Fri two. Don't forget that Dag Comey appointed him as special counsel in
the Plame matter, and that he was there for Comey's investiture.

2016-03-18 INBOX l could work with him again \u263a\n\nAnd damn we'd get sh,*.t DONE
11:58:33, Fri
2016-03-18 OUTBOX l know. Like l said, we discussed boss and him yesterday.
11:58:39 Fri
2016-03-18 INBOX And it frustrates me, because Bill; at his 7:15, brings up the whole
12:05:54, Fri matter in front of his DADs. One who is acting for Dina. Who
immediately goes to John and tell him how Bill is stressed because all
the stuff is going on a bout a special prosecutor. Bill needs to learn to
nottalk to everybody about this when he's upset about it. And l
guarantee that agent, while discreet, is certainly going to tell at least a
few other
people.\UOOOlf621\UOOOlf621\UOOOlf621\UOOOlf621\U0001f621\UO

00:42:58, Sat have said, l know Billis out, but we talked last night. l'm out next week.
Since l have you both, here are my thoughts because l know the
message doesn't always make it cleanly to the top. Will do that next
im.
2016-03-19 INBOX Of course l might have still been so out of breath that l sounded like an
00:44:35 Sat asthmatic without his inhaler. U0001f612
2016-03-19 OUTBOX Yeah, would have been a totally reasonable approach. l didn't think of it

2016-03-19 INBOX Sigh. Missed opportunity. Good news is l think the right message got
01:14:18, Sat throu h. Have it in hand for next time.
2016-03-19 OUTBOX Sorry, have been on with Bill P for the last 45 or so. He hadn't received

know l was ha to chat with him on the dl.
2016-03-19 OUTBOX l do like him. He gets nuance. l wonder if he gets intimidated/nervous
02:23:30, Sat around Andy, or the bluster of the guys, bc he's much more normal just
discussin an issue back and forth.
2016-03-19 OUTBOX l had intended
02:27:23, Sat t o talk to Bill this weekend or Monday and be in bed already, but when
if l was free now there was no way l could leave him to wonder like
that.
2016-03-19 INBOX Re bill

2016-03-19 OUTBOX He is. l think he was pretty offended by my back and forth with randy.
02:32:48, Sat
2016-03-19 INBOX lt's not intimidation. Which is why l get a little angry at doing the
02:33:33, Sat imitation thing. He's not weak - to the extent he has a weakness, it's the
over thinking earnestness, maybe thinking it's a tad bit more thoughtful
than it is. But it is genuine without guile.

2016-03-19 INBOX You toid him? He should be.

02:33:55, Sat
2016-03-19 INBOX He is paying the priGe for a number of aggressive but unthoughtful

they used to determine whether something was work-related, and
. whether someone applied those criteria re a particular email, is not
opinion. 1'11 do some research. And yes, is much, much too busy.

2016-03-31 OUTBOX Hey, was thinking, don't you think DD should get a brief on that case for
00:07:09, Thu tomorrow before doj does7 Or at !east at about the sametime? Maybe
mention to bill?
2016-03-31 INBOX Briefed Bill, he intended to tell Mike to brief Andy. Gave him enough
00:10:35 Thu cooies.
2016-03-31 OUTBOX l get that, but maybe an actual brief since that's what doj is getting and
00:11:39, Thu l don't think you'd want your DD not to know everything they do right?

2016-03-31 INBOX Sorry l__Jealled.

00:27:52 Thu
2016-03-31 INBOX Sounds smart to me but Bill/Mike need to raise it. And truly it's not that
00:28:52, Thu bi2 a deal.

2016-03-31 INBOX Her:e's the thing re case brief-1 don't know how tostress importance
00:59:57, Thu without Jones deciding to invite himself. \n\nAnd truly, l think Bill will
convey enough detail. And if Andy/Mike want more, they can ask.
\n\nlnterestingly, we'd brief internais somewhat regularly to EAD.
'Haven't with Mike. Also, he's sat down for big briefs with l and 3 (not
sure about 2). Not us. Maybe he figures he'll hear about them if he
needs to. l may also suggest to Bill that he my want to get a section
significant case briefing.

2016-03-31 INBOX Talked with Bill and Trisha and - Will tell you on the way to lunch
15:43:12, Thu - call me when vou're clear.
2016-03-31 INBOX Thanks for stepping out to make the call/ heads up about lunch, l
16:18:28, Thu appreciate it. :)\n\nl am grumbly Bill is not going. Jim wasn't tracking on
all the various sources of ambiguity in the reporting. \U0001f612

2016-03-31 INBOX And l am grumbly about Trisha. Will explain.

2016‐04‐01  INBOX Just read your last lync ‐ that's REALLY frustrating. \n\nBecause it's

2016‐04‐02  INBOX Right. But did you say anything other than work? I did,  

01:20:30, Sat
2016‐04‐02  INBOX Btw, he got neither of the two asac jobs he was in for earlier, and 
11:20:10, Sat  said   (who sits on the asac board) said he wasn't getting 
Milwaukee, coming up. Talked about him with Bill, too. He's of the 
same mind I am. \n\nGotta figure out what to do with  .

2016‐04‐02  OUTBOX That sucks about  . Do they have any suggestions?

11:53:01, Sat
2016‐04‐02  INBOX  
12:29:03, Sat No 
idea what to do about  . Probably suggest he try a different 
division (ct? Iod?) to expand his experience.

2016‐04‐02  INBOX I told you the story from   about Andy getting his number?

20:56:08, Sat
2016‐04‐02  OUTBOX No, don't think I know the andy   story. Or if I do I don't 
21:22:02, Sat remember.
2016‐04‐02  INBOX Pretty sure I told you ‐ Mike heimbach lamenting how bad it was 
21:24:34, Sat and what they'd have to do to get him selected for wfo. Anyway, I 
can tell you again.

2016‐04‐03  INBOX And yeah,   behavior was inappropriate. I need to talk to him.

12:35:05, Sun
2016‐04‐03  OUTBOX  And then at 
12:52:43, Sun 6:30 I got all mad again about the fact that   is now talking to 
DOJ about my question. Because it is THAT offensive that I would 
dare question him. Asshole.
2016‐04‐03  OUTBOX And then I get mad because I too can let rip all sorts of smart 
12:53:47, Sun remarks, but because I'm a girl younger my position whatever I'm 
expected to remain above the fray.
2016‐04‐03  INBOX You get you're not the part that's objectionable to him, right? It's 
12:54:08, Sun the while thing

appropriately.

wisdom with the group" did you mention it.
2016‐04‐03  INBOX He wasn't perfectly fine in the meeting. I thought he was angry and 
12:58:32, Sun you were leaving. \n\nWhich part of what I said don't you believe? 
And what do you mean by out if line has been happening since the

13:00:29, Sun anything from anyone else in the meeting  (other than   
talking ABOUT  ). Because, I suspect, that was on him to 
research/speak to and he didn't and it was questioned.

2016‐04‐03  INBOX Everyone on our side does. I can't speak to DoJ. I told you what I 

13:00:58, Sun told  .
2016‐04‐03  OUTBOX And no, I don't have a problem with how he was in the meeting at

question" has clearly been discussed.
2016‐04‐03  OUTBOX Our side equals you and Jon and maybe  . Give me a break 
13:02:00, Sun Pete. If you guys don't have my back I've got real problems.

2016‐04‐03  OUTBOX Whatever. We don't need to talk about it.   

13:02:43, Sun
2016‐04‐03  INBOX He was angry and talked to me ‐ after I brought it up ‐ and with

him. \n\nI think ‐ and I may wrong ‐ you are conflating the motives 
behind Randy Andy and   with the ones at the meeting. The 
former is more along the lines of what you're saying. The meeting 
wasn't a function of yur age or gender.   would have

2016‐04‐03  INBOX It's true that I don't.
13:10:20, Sun
2016‐04‐03  INBOX And i do believe there's an inherent sexism in most people. So I

13:11:21, Sun not threatened.
2016‐04‐03  INBOX Truly, I'm going to talk to him. I think my main message is what I 
13:12:31, Sun told   you've got a bunch of very good, bright attorneys in 
that room, and you're going to get a ton more bees with honey 
rather than vinegar. And then reinforce you're a superstar. Is that 
the right path?
2016‐04‐03  INBOX A)   that's life. I think most people can only count on one hand 
13:13:22, Sun the number of people who truly have their back, no matter what. 
\U0001f636+H466
2016‐04‐03  OUTBOX I guess. I would probably be more direct ‐ they don't know you 
13:20:38, Sun from adam, why are they supposed to take your word for it? 
Especially when they're all used to the no brigade at DOJ. And if it 
is that straightforward and obvious an answer, it shouldn't take 
much work to demonstrate that to everyone.
2016‐04‐03  INBOX Makes sense.
13:22:21, Sun
2016‐04‐03  INBOX Do you have any desire to meet him ‐ meeting about privilege or 
13:23:07, Sun lunch or HH? (I strongly suspect i know the answer)

2016‐04‐03  OUTBOX You do know the answer. He can act all big and "sure I'll get a drink 

13:24:58, Sun with anyone" but at the end of the day that meetup is going to go 
no better.
2016‐04‐03  OUTBOX And truly, I'm not sure why you're going to say more to him in the 
13:26:53, Sun first place.   what do you 
think you're going to accomplish?
2016‐04‐03  INBOX  it's also defending a friend, a 
13:29:25, Sun colleague, who I have immense respect for. Whose back I 
have.\n\nWhat I hope to accomplish is to understand his

2016‐04‐08  OUTBOX Maybe it is a friend thing. I gotta say, when he sent the email, and 
00:19:35, Fri then was so concerned by my reaction that he followed up with 
that call, my overall feeling was "oh good, he cares!" I'm even okay 
with him caring out of a selfish desire because he really wants me 
to keep working for him. And so now I just feel like a suckered 
maybe? Guess he didn't care enough.

2016‐04‐08  OUTBOX I don't know. That's the best I can come up with.

00:19:43, Fri
2016‐04‐08  INBOX I'd feel that way. No doubt about it. \n\nBut see what I just 
00:32:06, Fri imsged. I don't know if "friendship" changes when it's a superior ‐ 
subordinate relationship, particularly when it's an advisor ‐ high 
ranking dynamic (in other words, I think it's different ‐ some ‐ from 
my relationship with  )
2016‐04‐08  INBOX And interesting how elusive it is (for me, too!) to put ones finger 
00:34:14, Fri on. \n\nI guess for me it's the thought (hope) that he's a stand up 
guy. And this is not stand up behavior. And when it's about YOU 
that's extra hard.\n\nLet me ask this (though maybe it doesn't 
translate). What would Giacalone do?

2016‐04‐08  OUTBOX I do think it's because he's my friend too. And honestly, I know he's 

00:47:29, Fri my vast superior, but he's never treated me like that. Nor I him. So 
mostly I do just consider him my friend.
2016‐04‐08  OUTBOX Re giacalone, I really don't know. I think he would have taken it 
00:49:36, Fri head on and addressed it, but he's such a different person, he 
would have done it in an awkward shucks‐y way. Andy's not like 
that, just has to be earnest and direct, which is harder. John would 
say, "hey c'mon go easy on her. She's helping me out, means no 
harm, etc." I think? But what do I know.

2016‐04‐08  OUTBOX Remind me to tell you what came up st the end of convo with 

00:51:49, Fri toscas. Punchline is it ends with andy telling Toscas that he is going 
to ask me to follow up with Stu on that joint venture stuff.

02:47:53, Sat sitting in on the big interviews.

03:06:06, Sat
2016‐04‐09  OUTBOX Just add them both, do it all at once. Then there's no grounds for

2016‐04‐10  INBOX Because you know where I was on Thursday or Friday night ‐ when 
02:09:14, Sun I was complaining about everyone expecting me to deliver the hard 
message while they vacillated in discussing with their counterparts. 
About how my sense of justness and character was at odds with 
waiting until Sat to say something. \n\nAnd rightfully, you point 
out stop being so prima donna‐ish and just do it. \n\nAnd i do. 
\n\nAnd then I find out an hour later that in addition to what I was 
asked to do, JB went to counsel and had the discussion he did. And 
I'm the one facing the music. From some who I have known for a 
long time.  Nobody else pays the price. Nobody else will have the 
same straight hard discussion. Yet I'm the only one who violated 
his sense of integrity to swallow hard and deliver the message.

2016‐04‐10  INBOX I'm not sure if I want to be part of this

02:09:52, Sun
2016‐04‐10  OUTBOX You are a part of this and that's not going to change. But I think 
05:51:15, Sun you have every right to be angry and frustrated about being left 
out of the loop on your investigation, especially when you're going 
to be left holding the bag. And I think you're entitled to say 
something to Baker about that, though on this one I would 
probably discuss with Bill first.
2016‐04‐10  OUTBOX I'm sorry   Big big case, big big problems. But God knows 
05:52:00, Sun you're still the right guy to do it.H1133
2016‐04‐10  INBOX Gmailed you two drafts of what I'm thinking of sending Bill, would 
11:33:08, Sun appreciate your thoughts. Second (more recent) is updated so you 
can skip the first.
2016‐04‐11  OUTBOX Andy just called to make sure I had heard everything. Call when 
13:56:15, Mon you're free
2016‐04‐11  INBOX  Bill wants to talk to me at 1215...
15:52:27, Mon
2016‐04‐11  INBOX Just talked with Bill, who spoke with 
22:19:37, Mon everyone this morning. Will fill you in tonight or tomorrow. 
\n\nAlso, he was under the impression Andy wanted the meeting 
and a prebrief with FBI only just before. I think   may have 
screwed up that scheduling. Can you check? Obviously want to 
confirm with him before going to 
2016‐04‐11  INBOX We talked for 45 minutes...
22:19:40, Mon
2016‐04‐11  OUTBOX Wow. Can you talk now?
22:20:43, Mon
2016‐04‐11  OUTBOX Sent email to andy re pre‐brief. Will let you know what he says.

2016‐04‐11  INBOX Oof. Laufman just left me a minute long message. Don't think I'm 
23:13:06, Mon going to listen tonight. \n\nAnd it's weird. CES always shows as 
"restricted" when the call is coming in but then shows true name 
afterwards on the call list. Needless to say, I screen all restricted 
calls...
2016‐04‐13  INBOX Talked with   for a while. She couldn't remember who said the 
00:40:33, Wed D was going to talk to the AG on Sun night or Mon about this.

2016‐04‐13  INBOX My point in forwarding the email was to talk about how we get to 

02:21:03, Wed a productive place
2016‐04‐13  OUTBOX We'll get there, but for this meeting I'd solely just be taking   
02:22:07, Wed lead.
2016‐04‐13  INBOX Well sure, but would be nice to know what that lead is in advance 
02:29:48, Wed rather than, I don't know, f*ck me in the *ss wirhout saying 
anything, kinda like   calling counsel the night before. \n\nToo 
much negative done to expect benefit of the doubt.

2016‐04‐13  INBOX Maybe we can find some time to talk today 

10:55:35, Wed about the MYE thing? Really need to put it to rest. Certainly before 
the meeting tomorrow, if I can.
2016‐04‐13  OUTBOX I will. I promise.

2016‐04‐13  INBOX Yep. Came up in the meeting.
21:59:00, Wed
2016‐04‐14  INBOX Spoke to   need to talk to you at some point. Not urgent, so 
00:02:03, Thu can certainly wait   
so free to talk.
2016‐04‐14  OUTBOX Hi. I can talk now.
00:20:20, Thu
2016‐04‐14  INBOX Thank you. \U0001f636 \n\nWas obviously constrained on my 
00:37:11, Thu comments. What I identified IS what bothers me the most. And the 
rest is nonsense.
2016‐04‐14  OUTBOX And I think that frustration is fair. But it doesn't change the 
00:39:56, Thu fundamental okay‐ness of the prior two decisions (the summation 
and the call to her). It just means it would be best to handle it 
differently in the future. And Jim WILL understand that. Just talk to 
him, one on one. You don't need to get Bill's permission, clear 
through him, just go talk to him. It will all be fine.

2016‐04‐14  INBOX I will. He told Bill on Monday he'd be happy to talk to me any time.

back to task). I was talking about the specific allegation. We 
haven't discussed with him in a briefing we've given. I almost want 
to do it so 1) he knows we're aware 2) demonstrate that to Trisha 
and whoever else is deep in the "secret secret, ive got a secret" 
mindset and 3) get a sense of what he's thinking.

01:38:34, Wed can talk about it.

02:08:37, Wed sleeper from 2:15 to 2:45, then homicide trends at 2:45‐3:15, then 
another networking/break. I would schedule for 2:00.

what I was saying (granted, he may already have had the benefit of

2016‐04‐29  INBOX He didnt, directly. Certainly didn't say no way, but nor did he say, "I 
18:10:33, Fri think you'll be able to do that." Two reasons, at least. Much easier 
for him to argue to advance me if he can say "Pete's willing to go 
to the east coast" or even mid‐atlantic than it is to say "Pete's 
limited to HQ and WFO."
2016‐04‐29  INBOX Second reason is he went to NY and left his family here.
18:10:48, Fri

18:12:32, Fri at least say "look, I'm open to the needs of the Bureau, just be

18:24:00, Fri people aren't interested in that. I did caveat that later to CD by 
saying if Jones or Gordon left. I suppose I'd think hard about CYD or

2016‐05‐15  OUTBOX I'm thinking about not going with Andy tomorrow, going into to 
18:30:50, Sun work but only working on uco policy and house stuff. I'm very torn. 
\U0001f612
2016‐05‐15  INBOX  You should definitely go before Andy 
18:32:07, Sun leaves. You'll have another chance, but the irons hot now. Flip side, 
I really want you (and him, but at least one of you) at D brief.

2016‐05‐15  INBOX Work‐wise, probably smarter to go in, I guess.

18:32:43, Sun
2016‐05‐15  INBOX Take the helicopter next time. ;)
18:32:52, Sun
2016‐05‐15  OUTBOX Yes.   just texted. Dd flying with the DAG on the bird. So he'll be 
20:21:14, Sun back for mye. So if there are extra seats, I'll join, if not, I'll come in.

2016‐05‐15  INBOX  That's totally cool. 

20:24:05, Sun Where do you leave from, Reagan?
2016‐05‐15  INBOX Troop configuration sits 11 (if you're taking the Blackhawk) but no 
20:26:09, Sun idea how configured. 8, no problem. Take out seats and you can 
cram about 20 all soothed together (but that's SUPER tight). Is   
going?
2016‐05‐15  INBOX Scootched not soothed. It is NOT soothed.
20:26:45, Sun
2016‐05‐15  INBOX First time in a blackhawk? Helicopter?
20:27:28, Sun
2016‐05‐15  OUTBOX Never been in a blackhawk, or any helicopter at all  
20:33:11, Sun

2016‐05‐15  INBOX Well, I really hope you can go. There's got to be enough room ‐ 

20:40:03, Sun even if the DAG takes +2, +2 detail guys, and Andy, that's only 6. 
When will you know?
2016‐05‐15  OUTBOX Tonight? Not sure
20:58:05, Sun
2016‐05‐15  INBOX Saw your email. Waiting to do something until I get it "officially" ‐ 
20:59:49, Sun or can I use your email for that? We're going to have to go to NSD. 
I think Bill calling George is the right place to start, then I can 
follow up with

2016‐05‐15  INBOX And I'm going to ping Jim R tomorrow (or whenever I get it) to say 
21:22:31, Sun hey, per D's request, we've put quite a bit of thought into it, 
including coming up with this, Andy noted you were collecting 
comments, how would you like them.
2016‐05‐15  INBOX Well, he hasn't. I'm just going to email him and see if he wants an 
21:38:52, Sun update from last week either tonight or tomorrow morning before 
he goes upstairs.
2016‐05‐15  OUTBOX I'm over my email limit so can't send right now. It's utterly freezing 
22:46:18, Sun outside. Sucks.
2016‐05‐15  OUTBOX DAG detail saying only room for Andy.   is checking with her 
22:46:44, Sun staff.
2016‐05‐15  INBOX Oof. That sucks. And bullsh*t, unless it's a smaller helicopter. Is it 
22:55:06, Sun DOJ's or ours?  If you cant go, I'll take you to lunch and make 
helicopter noises. ;)\n\nI just did a mass cull down on 324mail. 
 
Talking to Bill at 7:45. Did some open source 
research, no way we get that data on our own.
2016‐05‐15  OUTBOX I know. It has to be nsd.
22:56:05, Sun
2016‐05‐15  INBOX I need some clarifying data ‐ just retention, right? While it might be 
23:00:39, Sun helpful to put in Petraeus, Hitselberger, that's only to show they 
are different, ie, involve transmittal to another person. He just 
wants fact patterns where it was only retention, not disclosure, 
right? And taking graviman literally, list will not include more 
serious cases/disclosures which are more than retention.

2016‐05‐15  OUTBOX Yes, that's what I would say.

23:59:40, Sun
2016‐05‐16  INBOX Just finished with Bill.  
00:49:01, Mon
2016‐05‐16  INBOX Talked to 
01:06:08, Mon Bill for about an hour. He mentioned email, said he would send 
(though he hasn't yet). He had a slightly different take than I did 
but we'll get there. His primary concern is asking DoJ in such a way 
that they respond straight to the D (which I can see happening) 
without us getting a chance to review for accuracy / spin.

2016‐05‐16  OUTBOX Insist it go through the DD. Then I'll give it to you.

01:07:10, Mon
2016‐05‐16  INBOX Well I think we start by trying to insist it go thru CD. We'll see. I just 
01:08:56, Mon envision them being whiny about it unless they have something 
already written.

2016‐05‐17  OUTBOX Yes, this is true. But let's be honest, it's not like they've pointed to 

10:35:58, Tue the cfr as the reason. So let them come up with something.

2016‐05‐17  INBOX They haven't pointed to it because they haven't done the

2016‐05‐18  INBOX I'm also frustrated that I have to spend three and a half hours in a 
10:50:49, Wed trp session for things that are already decided. We waste too much 
time on this process. It's important to do, but not this long, and not 
this complicated.
2016‐05‐18  INBOX  I am so mad at   right now. He's claiming 
11:43:51, Wed reimbursement for car for 14‐28 April (Conf authorized 18‐22), 
lodging in Auckland 16‐17 (Conf was in Wellington), m&IE in 
Auckland 14‐16.\n\nI mean wtf. Have some sense, man.

2016‐05‐18  OUTBOX Do Not Let Him!

11:44:40, Wed
2016‐05‐18  OUTBOX That's really outrageous.
11:45:02, Wed
2016‐05‐18  INBOX I'm not going to. I've got to call him today. Since he didn't get 
11:49:08, Wed business, he's entitled to a delay in route of one night, 3/4 days 
M&IE on each day. I'll let him explain that to me, though. \n\nThe 
rental car, no.\n\nOh, this was all in conjunction with his wife. 
Didn't use Carlson, "Contacted Carlson and determined there is no 
contract carrier to Nz. Due to this fact, and to ensure my wife could 
travel with me at am acceptable cost, I booked through other 
means."
2016‐05‐18  INBOX In defense of his airfare, what he paid is much less than the Carlson 
11:49:31, Wed fare.
2016‐05‐18  INBOX I DO NOT WANT TO ATTEND THIS\n\nGrump grump grump
13:04:48, Wed
2016‐05‐18  INBOX  You already leave? \n\nAlso, need to to let me in to   
15:57:15, Wed office
2016‐05‐18  INBOX  can only do 4 or any time later. You want to try for 430, 
16:02:10, Wed recognizing you have wrap at 5, or keep at 4?
2016‐05‐18  INBOX Give me a call when you're done, I am in hell
16:51:55, Wed

2016‐05‐21  INBOX Hey sent you some email going around this morning. Don't know if 
13:44:58, Sat you noted one of them from last night,   said   never 
responded to his email for update. We're talking in an hour, I'm 
going to encourage him to speak to Andy and   about it, that 
it's undermining his position and effectiveness (to Andy) and that 
it's unprofessional (to  ). Obvious problem is its not easy for 
any   to say that to the DD, nor   personality. \n\nThe best 
way may simply be for him to say to Andy, you know, I contacted 
 to follow up on the D's request and he didn't so much as 
send me an email, even to tell me he was going to talk to you. Let 
Andy infer the right leadership action / response.

2016‐05‐21  OUTBOX Got it. And ha ha, just realized the D is out on Monday. So   

14:00:19, Sat won't be giving it direct to him anyway.
2016‐05‐21  INBOX Ha ha indeed. I think a slight tweak to   message is, when 
14:07:25, Sat Rybicki's request email went out, he asked who would do this. I 
said CD would. If that's what you want, then you have to help me 
with  \n\nI MEAN C'MON! HE'S A  , AND CAN'T BE 
BOTHERED TO RETURN AN   EMAIL BECAUSE HE 
HAS THE DD ON SPEED DIAL. 
\U0001f621\U0001f621\U0001f621\U0001f621
2016‐05‐21  INBOX Moving on.
14:07:48, Sat
2016‐05‐21  OUTBOX Honestly I would suggest he say the second thing you said in that 
14:15:00, Sat long text, just that   didn't bother following up with me at 
all, and just leave it at that. You can even tell   if you want that I 
got mad/frustrated at andy for agreeing to let it go straight to the 
DD, and I don't want it to seem like we're piling on the dd.

2016‐05‐21  INBOX I think you're right re approach. I hesitate to say what you did, 

14:17:00, Sat except it's an important point re the potential 
counterproductiveness of piling on.
2016‐05‐21  OUTBOX Go ahead and tell him. Can just be a reflection of you getting angry 
14:18:44, Sat re   and me telling you that I was mad too re email thing.

12:16:01, Wed than last night. \n\nIt's the little things, like her writing no agents 
will participate in the otd review. That sense of entitlement about 
how we staff is the result of Andy not simply saying "no" to doj 
about the obnoxious filter staffing demand

2016‐06‐10  INBOX Hey talked with him just now. Pls give me a holler when you're 
19:40:03, Fri done, want to ensure he knows I'm not questioning what he wants 
to do, just explaining why we proposed reaching out

2016‐06‐10  OUTBOX Okay. It just started so it is going to be a while

19:41:22, Fri
2016‐06‐10  INBOX Np. I think we're good, but I just ran thru what D said. Agreed with 
19:43:33, Fri Andy that smarter thing is to wait and see what's on there but 
likely no way we hit summer solstice if we do that.

2016‐06‐10  INBOX Funny, I'm sure it's perfectly fine but got that funny feeling telling 

19:45:43, Fri the DD that the D said something different from him. Andy noted 
he told   that we wouldn't schedule interview until laptops 
were reviewed and D didn't have that info, then said he'd take care 
of D.\n\nI just don't want him thinking that I felt he needed to 
explain himself to me.
2016‐06‐10  OUTBOX I really wouldn't worry about it, but yes, of course we can talk.
19:46:19, Fri
2016‐06‐10  INBOX I know you're right but still. Besides, I want to congratulate each 
19:58:56, Fri other once we get these dammed things
2016‐06‐10  INBOX Also, funny, mentioned to Andy what was going on, Toscas had 
20:09:19, Fri already updated him. \U0001f612
2016‐06‐10  INBOX I know you've heard me complain a thousand times, but that sh*t 
20:19:43, Fri from   KILLS me
2016‐06‐10  OUTBOX  The DD also calls you directly. This 
20:21:48, Fri whole case is fucked up. It is what it is.

2016‐06‐10  INBOX His wording cuts through both the bs story, the "owe apology," and 
21:35:04, Fri everything else. Send to both?
2016‐06‐10  OUTBOX Yes, I will. Probably to   with cc to

2016‐06‐10  INBOX  Don't really have a need to talk work, gonna 
21:59:34, Fri assume I was worrying to much earlier and it's all good.

2016‐06‐10  OUTBOX I definitely think that is the case.

21:59:59, Fri
2016‐06‐10  INBOX I don't know that you should wait until Monday to send it. Sleep on 
22:00:25, Fri it and send tomorrow? Or maybe Sun morning for something to 
reflect on in services.
2016‐06‐10  INBOX Ok (re Andy) \U0001f636

2016‐06‐10  INBOX Question for you re Jims email. Is that your voice, ie, would you say 
22:05:07, Fri it in terms of fbi core values?\n\nI guess if they ever went to eeo 
opr, or anyone else that's a damn hard statement to find fault 
with.
2016‐06‐10  INBOX Would   know?

22:06:01, Fri
2016‐06‐10  OUTBOX It's not my voice, but who cares?
22:06:14, Fri
2016‐06‐10  OUTBOX Hell, Jim wants to refer them to inspection for saying something 
22:06:45, Fri like that about a disabled person. I won't let him
2016‐06‐10  INBOX

2016‐06‐10  INBOX Fair enough re voice. Just go with it
22:07:45, Fri
2016‐06‐10  OUTBOX Yup. I mean the worst they're going to say is what are you talking 
22:11:09, Fri about we weren't making fun, but at least I should end it.

2016‐06‐10  INBOX Yes, and this does it.

01:27:35, Sun people.
2016‐06‐12  INBOX I started. And while i hate Trump, part of me thought   
01:29:42, Sun would not/may not get into   because they're white and not 
from buttf*ck Texas...H6362
2016‐06‐12  INBOX I'm torn between their achievement and the reality of the 
01:31:06, Sun limitations it places on others. All of that separate and distinct 
from the bigoted hatred of half (it seems ) of our population.

2016‐06‐12  OUTBOX Dude. THESE GIRLS ARE THE VALEDICTORIANS IN THEIR CLASS. 

01:31:14, Sun AND ENGLISH IS THEIR SECOND LANGUAGE. AND THEY OVERCAME 
SERIOUS ODDS. THEY HAVE EARNED IT.

2016‐06‐12  INBOX I'm saying the difference between equal opportunity and equal 
01:33:16, Sun outcome is hazier as you get closer.
2016‐06‐12  OUTBOX THESE GIRLS DIDN'T EVEN HAVE AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY! What 
01:33:54, Sun are you talking about?!
2016‐06‐12  INBOX I'm not saying they didn't deserve it. I'm saying their background 
01:34:41, Sun gave them an advantage the upper class white boy didn't get

2016‐06‐12  INBOX Is that fair?

01:34:47, Sun
2016‐06‐12  OUTBOX We're not talking about south Asians in the same socio‐economic 
01:35:00, Sun class.
2016‐06‐12  INBOX They earned it. But so did lots of others.
01:35:40, Sun
2016‐06‐12  INBOX And I'm not talking about these two. I'm talking about the pros and 
01:36:36, Sun cons of considering anything other than merit for admission.

2016‐06‐12  OUTBOX No it f‐ing did not. Their background gave them an advantage?! 

01:36:41, Sun They grew up in a home, in all likelihood, where their parents were 
illiterate. Probably wholly uneducated. Undoubtedly poor. Yeah, 
those lucky girls who got to bubble in "Mexican."

2016‐06‐12  INBOX I get that would further slash minority representation.

2016‐06‐12  OUTBOX Sorry, I'm really mad.
01:37:09, Sun
2016‐06‐12  OUTBOX And you ARE talking about these two. You said their background 
01:38:15, Sun gave them an advantage that upper white kids didn't get and that 
is completely BULLSHIT.
2016‐06‐12  INBOX Yes, their background did. They deserve to go, as do thousands of 
01:40:37, Sun others.   

2016‐06‐12  OUTBOX If they were the valedictorian and we undocumented and had the 

01:41:40, Sun same story, I dare say they'd be going the same damn place.   
 

2016‐06‐12  OUTBOX That is bs. And I agree with that. That is fake diversity, and we both 

01:44:28, Sun know that. Don't you dare lump these girls,  who on top of 
everything else, had the courage to state that they were 
undocumented, in with   kid.

2016‐06‐12  INBOX These two are being held up because of the broader issue. Distill 
01:45:59, Sun the calculus, and the argument. What is the value of diversity such 
that we can measure it against other qualifications? Like being 
young and rooting for Bernie until you start earning a paycheck, I 
find my views on admissions / hiring have been changed by 
watching 

2016‐06‐12  INBOX I'm not lumping them in. They are a great success story. But the 

01:46:58, Sun question of their story is whether or not the process unduly 
weights the decision.
2016‐06‐12  INBOX Take the two of them out of it
01:47:10, Sun
2016‐06‐12  INBOX Should race play an additional plus in admission?
01:47:25, Sun
2016‐06‐12  INBOX Should economic background?
01:47:35, Sun
2016‐06‐12  OUTBOX I get that. But a classroom filled with kids with only one experience 
01:47:40, Sun is not education. They necessarily bring a different outlook, and 
their race, and status, are a part of that.

2016‐06‐12  OUTBOX ABSOLUTELY!

01:47:46, Sun
2016‐06‐12  INBOX Has affirmative action been positive, in the final analysis? Has it 
01:48:02, Sun gone on too long?
2016‐06‐12  OUTBOX And I won't take them out of it. I started this discussion about 
01:48:25, Sun them!
2016‐06‐12  INBOX Look, I'm not some freaky Ayn Rand disciple.

01:48:52, Sun complicated to do over text.
2016‐06‐12  INBOX I'm happy for the two of them
01:49:23, Sun
2016‐06‐12  INBOX Fine
01:49:23, Sun
2016‐06‐12  INBOX They fully deserve to go, and demonstrate the absolute bigoted 
01:49:47, Sun nonsense of Trump
2016‐06‐12  INBOX Truly.
01:49:47, Sun
2016‐06‐12  INBOX I have no idea if this is accurate, but clearly, she deserves to go to 
02:02:01, Sun Yale if it is. I stand by my broader questions about whether we

application process. \n\n Larissa Martinez | Wiki & Bio |

22:35:54, Tue the 2nd, and that   had done that. Hopefully accurate; 
would have appreciated a heads up even if a foregone conclusion.

2016‐06‐14  INBOX And hey, 3) I have an answer for interview location. Brilliant. (Jon 

22:46:56, Tue thought of it). Completely handles the issue.
2016‐06‐15  INBOX On September 13, 2007, Martin appeared on Comedy Central's The 
01:15:02, Wed Colbert Report to discuss Mother Teresa's fifty‐year sense of 
abandonment by God which had much coverage in the media at 
the time. Martin appeared several more times on The Colbert 
Report, once to discuss Pope Benedict XVI's visit to the U.S. in 
April, 2008,[8] and again on February 23, 2009 to discuss how 
poverty (or, at least, reducing the importance one places on 
material goods) can bring one closer to God.[9]\n\nOn March 18, 
2010, Martin was invited to the program in the wake of Glenn 
Beck's suggesting that Catholics run away from priests who preach 
"social justice."[10] Martin noted that "social justice addresses the 
things that keep people poor" and "asks you why are these people 
poor." He added that "Christ asked us to work with the poor. ... In 
the Gospel of Matthew He says that the way that we're going to be 
judged at the end of our lives is not what church we prayed in or 
how we prayed but really ... how we treated the poor."

18:13:04, Thu tomorrow. Info is not time sensitive. I think it was more (all 
allegedly according to our PDB people, who may be dramatic) that 
she didn't get her question answered before the follow on briefing.

21:30:09, Sat
2016‐06‐18  OUTBOX Andy just called me with a question that I should remember from 
22:01:17, Sat my doj days and don't. Makes me frustrated. Will need to look it 
up tonight.
2016‐06‐18  OUTBOX Just can't remember what kind of contact is permissible once a 
22:15:49, Sat subject has lawyered up pre‐charges. I know an ausa can't contact, 
but I thought a source still could. Usao and doj are saying no, and I 
seriously can't remember.
2016‐06‐18  INBOX But hasn't been charged? I think we have much more latitude than 
22:43:20, Sat attys do, provided we don't coordinate (which I think triggers 
McDade stuff). But I'm far less an authority than you. I do think we 
can use sources, though. Call a good cdc, they'll know. Sadly I can't 
point you to one at 
2016‐06‐18  OUTBOX Yes, that's my recollection, but I just don't remember.
23:00:55, Sat
2016‐06‐19  OUTBOX Oh god yes. No good can come of that. Your dad know you're 
00:53:52, Sun heading up the case yet?
2016‐06‐19  INBOX Well you may not come back if they go 
02:06:33, Sun video route, right?
2016‐06‐19  OUTBOX Video, no. I just doubt that is going to happen.
02:07:16, Sun
2016‐06‐19  INBOX I hope not (re video). But it's clear that's how JR is pushing
02:08:04, Sun

2016‐06‐19  INBOX And still, i don't think doj has the nerve ‐ or that it ultimately serves 
02:10:16, Sun their interests ‐ to tell him he cant, or even that he shouldn't, do it.

2016‐06‐19  OUTBOX I agree. But those couple of hours to takes to set it up could be 

02:10:56, Sun EXTREMELY awkward.
2016‐06‐19  OUTBOX Yeah, but you know that doesn't really matter. They'll call rybicki, 
02:12:06, Sun or andy.
2016‐06‐19  OUTBOX Can't enter after midnight, you mean?
02:12:26, Sun
2016‐06‐19  INBOX And they say, sorry, he hasn't said, exactly. We'll pass a message to 
02:12:37, Sun him b
2016‐06‐19  INBOX Yes re entrance
02:12:46, Sun
2016‐06‐19  OUTBOX Not credible. Surely even if opa doesn't say what it's about, it will 
02:13:20, Sun be obvious.
2016‐06‐19  INBOX And so what are they gonna do?
02:15:16, Sun
2016‐06‐19  INBOX Everyone over there says, "we left a message. Sounds like it's 
02:15:46, Sun about.."
2016‐06‐19  INBOX Doj will be fine. They'll huff and puff but ultimately what are they 
02:19:54, Sun going to do? Truly. In 4 hours? They can barely assemble a 
conference call in that time. .
2016‐06‐19  INBOX Announce at 11 and you lose and hour and a half to lunch time 
02:20:53, Sun confusion anyway. It'll be Ok...
2016‐06‐19  OUTBOX They can tell the D no. And he really wants to avoid straight up 
02:28:47, Sun insubordination if he can...
2016‐06‐19  OUTBOX Florida has a different rule re represented parties. It is really bad 
15:15:51, Sun for us.
2016‐06‐19  INBOX Oh. What was the answer? All this based on bar rules
15:16:20, Sun
2016‐06‐19  OUTBOX Yup. Pretty much as soon as we tell usao, we are prohibited from 
15:19:29, Sun making any contact. Terrible disincentive to not talk to your usao.

2016‐06‐19  INBOX Funny how it all comes down to state bar rules. Seems very 

19:34:32, Sun capricious, like there should be some supremacy clause to get us 
out of it...
2016‐06‐19  INBOX And damn...a mess that made its way up to DD level?
19:34:44, Sun
2016‐06‐19  OUTBOX It didn't apply to us, until dumas congress passed mcdade.
20:07:35, Sun
2016‐06‐19  OUTBOX Yes. Big implications for the continues investigation against   
20:07:57, Sun
2016‐06‐19  INBOX Yep, well, maybe this is the chance for a legislative fix. More 
20:20:47, Sun important than half assed gun sale notification....

22:09:22, Sun side, regardless of what's announced. Even knowing what he's 
going to say, I'm not sure they'll be okay with it.
2016‐06‐19  INBOX I'm sure they do. I'm talking about what it would take for them to

2016‐06‐28  OUTBOX And you should ask   about Harbach soon before it is too late 
03:20:30, Tue and he never speaks to you again.
2016‐06‐28  INBOX I'll ask  , though funny thing is I think he will be ok with it, just 
09:33:01, Tue like he was the Mills preamble. Because both this and that are 
reasonable and help the cause
2016‐06‐28  INBOX Meanwhile I'm sitting here spinning in my head about the case. 
10:47:29, Tue Angry at myself for not thinking about raising Judiciary and Intel 
committees. I have in the past, but the time to do it was yesterday. 
Clearly the man is, though. Just feels like I dropped the ball.

2016‐06‐28  INBOX And the more I think of it, no way the D or DD should call ICIG. 

10:47:52, Tue Delegate that to Bill.
2016‐06‐28  INBOX Remember at the beginning of the case, Randy was delegating 
10:48:40, Tue contact with him to   and Jon...
2016‐06‐28  INBOX That's great advice but they all kind of tumble around in there 
11:01:45, Tue together, inseparable. \U0001f615\n\nThe interview needs 
tweaking, the 302s need a fine edit, the summaries need to be 
written, I need to see what I did wrong or forgot or put off and not 
do that again and I need to do background for the job application, 
combination of I'm perfect for the job and not good enough and 
not going to get it and and and.
2016‐06‐28  OUTBOX You're probably not going to get it. But that's not because you're 
11:04:18, Tue not good enough. That's because of the egos of other people in our 
organization. So we'll try the best we can, and know that you'll get 
it eventually.
2016‐06‐28  INBOX I'll be retired, eventually. Certainly well before I get to AD, if I have 
11:22:55, Tue to spend the time in each job that miraculously doesn't apply to 
the chosen few. But I need my CT club card to do that. 
 

2016‐06‐28  OUTBOX In fairness, you've been a SC for four months. We'll do our 

11:24:02, Tue research, but I think you're going to be hard pressed to find even a 
CT SC who was promoted that quickly.
2016‐06‐28  INBOX I will have completed five months by next weekend and be into my 
11:26:00, Tue 6th month
2016‐06‐28  INBOX Grumble grumble grumble. Look. I'm responsible for all the career 
11:35:39, Tue choices I've made. And as you've pointed out, I wouldn't change 
them.   for making me understand and own and see 
that as a positive. \n\nI just get really angry and dispirited at seeing 
less (frequently MUCH less) competent leadership advance. Case in 
point: who's my new boss? Who are all these great SACs with CI 
backgrounds?

2016‐06‐28  INBOX Ok I'm done. I'll put in for jobs I want and work hard and well no 

11:37:51, Tue matter what happens.

you're the only place (because of both friendship and shared
knowledge of the email) that l can. \n\nl'm aware you probably
hear me in even those times and either don't need me to tell you
what l'm telling you, feel !ike l'm asking you do do something about
it, or both. \n\nAnd sometimes, l'm just looking for a little
validation. Yes, the Andy- George dynamic did cause some
problems. Yes, Jim in 'particular isn't always good at email distro.
Thats all.\n\ nAnyway, all of this probably better talked about it

2016-08-30 INBOX Struggling with he roie of the new job. l get what you were saying
08:25 :31, Tue about "don't bellll" where everything has to go t hrough me,
but l don't know if that's entirely right. l better know what's going
on in my branch. l better know more about what's going on under
me than my AD, and surely more than the EAD or you or Andy or
the D.\n\nl get find people who can do a good job and !et them do
it. Completely agree. lt's figuring out the right amount to be
involved to track and guide, provide input.

2016-08-30 OUTBOX
08:55:17, Tue \ n\nAnd let's talk about the OAD thing later. All l'm saying is worry
and be present for the things that matter, not the things that don't.

2016-08-30 OUTBOX My poi nt is, that brief went super well. So even if you would have
08:59:57, Tue phrased a fee things differently, and even of you would have liked
to have known every fact before hand, it was superbly. And you
not knowing was very much a function of your not being here on
Friday. So all l'm saying is focus on the things that matter.

2016-08-30 INBOX l guess. Stiil not entirely comfortable with it. Will figure that out,
09:02:32, Tue there's an element of Jon in there that l also need to clarify what
l' m feeling, what's reasonable, what's not. \n\nThanks for being
there to hear all my doubt and concern

2016-08-30 ÜUTBOX Last thing: l get knowing more than the guy above you, but Mike
09:03:18, Tue knew far far less than even Andy and l knew about it. Hell, he didn't
even know we were having the brief. And l completely under how
frustrated that must have made him, but ultimately, the brief was
no worse off. Again, it's the focus on the things that matter.

2016-08-30 INBOX Let me ask you this. How man times had you heard that brief,
09:03:19 Tue between re for that and and otherwise?
2016-08-30 OUTBOX and then on Friday.

chose not ta read them. Because Jon made sure tasend them to
Oina and Bill and Mike, but stiil hasn't sent them to me. \n\nThats
what l'm saying- there's some stuff that's reasonable for me to ask
. and not reasonable for Jon not to do - hey dude, email me, just ee:,
the TPs please - and stuff isn't. \n\nAnd this is only a tiny bit of

Gazprom, who criticized American sanctions policy toward
Russia.\n\n\u201cTrump and his people keep saying the election is

2016-09-10 INBOX And re my last, l'd add that at this point the questions at this point
12:16:16, Sat are organizational risk best answered by people with thoughtful

2016-09-10 INBOX B) thing is, there are VERY inflammatory things in the 302s we
12:37:16, Sat didn't turn over to Congress (because they wer.en't relevant to

can mention to them.
2016-09-10 OUTBOX Oh well that's totally defendable. Why did they give them to
12:57:00, Sat us?\n\nYeah, but l think that was the context in which it was
eant. l.e. like who sucks more me or her?

tomorrow?\n\nThat's somehow different and OK?
2016-10-24 OUTBOX Yes.. Opening the paper tomorrow is not the same as 30 seconds
00:15 :27, Mon after it fucking posted.
2016-10-24 INBOX You toid me it was there 30 minutes after it went up. \n\nWhy are
00:16:05, Mon you angry? Because it's eritieal of Andy? That's even MORE reason
to get the word out.\n\nAnd how dare you accuse me of violating
trust!?!? J give you eandid adviee for which J will tell noone and get

so that he is forewarned and knows what the truth is? Because
without that vour claim is iust bullshit.
2016-10-24 OUTBOX This has nothing to do with Andy. l asked you to wait until it came
00:19:13, Mon to you. You would have had no idea any of this was out there but
for me. And l already thanked you for your excellent advke. Just a
tip, it's not the way to engender good will by doing a good deed
then rubbin11 a fucking nose in it.
2016-10-24 INBOX Why do l send noteworthy articles at all, Lisa? Should l wait on all
00:20:29, Man of those? Should l treat ones accusing the FBI of stuff specially?
Hoid those? \n\nYou never have had a SINGLE issue with my
promptness before. Typically, you appreciate it. This in noway
points to yoli. \n\nl' m so angry you'd accuse me of violating trust!
Godl That hurtsand l.try exceedingly hard to honor that in every
aspect of my life and l certainly did here.

INBOX Lisa l'm not rubbing your nose in it! l1m telling you your betrayal of
00:21:05, Mon trust line is and out of bounds.
INBOX l wilfALWAYS give you my honest good advice and opinion without
00:21:47, Mon any regard to what credit l get. l KNOW you go out of your way to
credit me whenever vou can.

2016-10-24 INBOX lt hasn 1t hit Google yet! r11 send it when it happens. Maybe S mln,
00:26:14, Mon
. maybe 2 hours. \n\nBut the article Was up a good 30 minutes
before you toid me.\n\nAre you upset because you thinks this
points to you? Because if l waited that (20 minutes 2 hours
whatever) time it would be OK?\n\nWhat is it that's making you so
lani<rv.? l::tcr "'"'°c l c:imnlv rlon't it
2016-10-24 OUTBOX Yeah, and l toid you a grand total of 2 minutes after l learned it was
Mon up from andy. And you sent it S minutes after that. And if you
actually' read your texts instead of desperately trying to be first,
you'll see that us said no, l don't think you should send lt.

2016-10-24 OUTBOX l shouldn't have to explaln all of thls. You knew it was there NOT
00:29:24, Mori because of your Google alert, which is totally fair game, but
because of ME. l don't know why any of this is so hard to
understand.
2016-'10-24 INBOX' And god, l1m not trying to engender goodwill by doing a good job. l

2016-10-24 INBOX l know that, and haven't said otherwise. \n\nNone of this is hard to
00:31:47, Mon understand, which is why l'm asking you why you're so damn angry
at this. LITERALLY EVERY OTHER SIGNIFICANT ARTICLE we've
treated this way. And the article WC!S out for half an hour. My
sending it in no way points to you. \n\nThe fact that everyone is
treating this so hush hush differently is part of the problem.

2016-10-24 INBOX And l can only take your lack of response to my fury at being
00:33:27, Mon accused of betraying your trust as either equal fury on your part or
an acknowledgement that you were wrong about that. \n\nl don't
treat your trust lightly or carelessly, Lisa. Don't so lightly accuse me

2016-10-24 .OUTBOX l'm done talking about this. Nooneis treating it all hush hush.
00:34:09, Mon Could you stop already? This has nothing to do with the case or the
investigative team, and is all about trying to smear a public
servant. So how about you withhold judgment about what is
a t all ain on.
2016-10-24 OUTBOX l you betrayed my trust. lf l thought l was wrong or had

2016-11-08 OUTBOX She does realize you've been in EVERY conversation that has been
02:43:40, Tue had about this case, right?
2016-11-08 INBOX That we should have gone on the record saying Kallstrom and
02:44:54, Tue others are not credible (which may be valid), but then saying we
could pull his tolls if we wanted to. Because she knows all about
our policy regarding investigations of members of the media.
\U0001f621
2016-11-08 INBOX Yes. But she's an expert who knows everything. \n\nl'm telling you,

impossible understanding of thirigs to make groundless assertions.

2016-11-08 OUTBOX Uh, what crime are we investigating?\n\nAnd l'm sorry, that's a
02:46:06 Tue terrible idea. Go to war with the formers?
2016-11-08 INBOX Leaking information about ongoing investigations. Which is
02:47:53, Tue incorrect information. By agents who doli't know about things
talking to him. \n\nSee? That's the thing. Her initial point, that we
should have gone after the agents talking harder and sooner, is not
unreasonable. But the subsequent discussion talis into uninformed
l;:ic: - :. •-

2016-11-08 OUTBOX lf it's not classified, what's the eri me though?

02:49:26, Tue Kallstrom. He's really out of That isa valid debate. Talking -
telling - me we should have done it is what's infuriating.

2016-11-08 INBOX There's not a erim e. So you publicly shame or disavow him. And ·
02:50:35, Tue you find out who's talk!ng to him and go after them with opr. lt's a

2017-06-01 ls Andy truly accepting of the fact of the potential limitations that
01:23 :35, Thu he may not be DD as long as he thought, and regardless, that we'll
have a new D, as all this unfolds?\n\nBtw, Bill said he heard some
guy in INSD was ra nked #2 fo r the job. Someone we interviewed
for a SC jobin CD and t urned down. Truly l don't know wtf is going
on. Do l have cognitive dissonance?
INBOX sm s
2017-06-01 Look, here's the bottom line asbest as l can surn up (and l hope
01:44:36, Thu you already know all this)\n\n- l don't think Andy's acting in bad
faith. l do t hink what he hypothetically proposes isn't something
in his thought process or skillset or his available time and ability.
ln other words, when JG or Ra ndy or even Bob sa id they had a
plan, they had a PLAN. l don't think Andy does. And as A/D tha t's
samething toosmall for him ta worry about. Ta put a tine point on
it Wtf. Such a pinta t he balloon of faith and confidence in
the system. \n\n-1 knew my standing w ith Comey and Andy. One
is gone, the other uncerta in at best. \n\n-1 don't trust/believe in
my standing with Dave and Carl and the rest of the EADs.\n\n- the
SC is stra ightforward and rewarding, meaningful, honorable and a
know n quantity. lt would cement my image as the "special project
guy" or "glorified case agent" (nevermind they'll never see1 l
l that way for doing the sa me job less well). l guess l 'm
feeling like l don't care about tha t right now. But it's not like i
have a long time left.
