Hey so I’m wondering has anyone asked Ambassador King if he has had any direct conversations with Trump or Czech President re the CC April 2019 Nikulin Ruling?
TIA

You might want to drink a few Red Bull...snort https://twitter.com/TrueFactsStated/status/1153355413464801285?s=20

Also my morning got away from me so this might help put the mini-thread into context
And ht to @Agenthades1 I totally dropped the ball on this case - which meant last night I spent a few hours on docket catch up https://twitter.com/File511/status/1153128520085884928?s=20

So @Agenthades1 - because I dislike when I miss a deadline. I went ahead and pulled down the docket, there are 2 orders that are not available via Open Source
So I uploaded to my drive - See the file here
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1WrNnvw2wm-PUyxJtqEw4eW8CySnee658

the public folder includes docket entries Sept 2018 to present.
I’m still convinced his “mental competency” was a ploy the April 30th Order was savage

I do not condone doxing - after spending hours reading the docket I was blind to one weirdness Nikulin’s attorney See the email domain? http://USA.com ?
Read it carefully
http://www.usa.com/about-us.php 
- weird how they identified a Dr fluent in Russian but never did a comp exam

YAY...I’m still cautious because of his prior (with cause) mental health issues and it’s unclear if he ever agreed to cooperating with the Psyche Evaluation- remember this is the same defendant that defecated & used it to paint his cell walls

Here’s the link to the public folder I created a while ago
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1WrNnvw2wm-PUyxJtqEw4eW8CySnee658

Last week the Govt filed a trial brief and a massive amount of exhibits
I’m running late for a lunch meeting but here’s a link (possible paywall) or you can give me until 1:15PM to upload
https://ecf.cand.uscourts.gov/doc1/035019025579?caseid=304407

Lordy there be tapes - also interesting is how our MLATs worked in our favor. Which allowed the USSS & FBI to forensically image one of Nikulin’ co-conspirators, on that laptop included 8 videos, Skype Chats & an actual file named “russia 2012”

Notable the Govt disclosed it seeks to introduce evidence of Nikulin’s own words. Like the time on his jail house calls to his girlfriend that they should “hack the prison” currently holding Nikulin
But it’s the data forensics - odd how Nikulin pivoted to being less combative

i went ahead and added the Govt’s trial brief to the public folder.

Again for your convenance, last summer I created a public folder and when warranted update the folder
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1WrNnvw2wm-PUyxJtqEw4eW8CySnee658
At any rate I have a 2:30 red team meeting but I’ll likely update after COB
ps maybe the MSM should call Judicial Watch for CPAC ground zero patient

Sorry two additional updates
Yesterday (March 9th - on the eve of Nikulin’s trial) the parties filed this stipulation
Thus documents 140, 141, 159, 160, and 165 should be UNSEALED momentary since the Judge just issued an order

Did you think I was off base on the Order to unseal the Motion in Limine and other filings in yesterday’s stipulation motion?
Come on now
also FML I totally got called out for not paying attention during my Red Team call. Gawd I canz readz & multi-taskz
https://ecf.cand.uscourts.gov/doc1/035119043964

Late Sunday (I’m in DC) sometimes I’m a bit behind with cases on the West Coast, the Govt filed their “amended witness list” it’s not surprising they are calling executives from LinkedIn, DropBox & FormSpring
Need 13 mins for my (actual) work call conclude
https://ecf.cand.uscourts.gov/doc1/035019043448?caseid=304407

ANYONE remember when Russia STOPPED responding to your MLAT?
Back in 2017 I opined that this hack was the precursor to the BIG yahoo hack (later confirmed TRUE) & at the time I speculated that Nikulin “freelanced” & was PO’d that he wasn’t getting paid.
https://ecf.cand.uscourts.gov/doc1/035019042827?caseid=304407

LLOLS remember that time people were like shut it - Nikulin’s case is sorted, Govt wouldn’t execute additional search warrants?
Yes those were super fun times.
Trolls gotta troll.
WAIT.
WHAT the Govt itemized 2019 Google search warrant re Nikulin?
Snort
https://ecf.cand.uscourts.gov/doc1/035019042827?caseid=304407

Hey @ChiefCovfefe do you remember all the shit that was tweeted at my bc I asked if Skype could be used to coordinate hacking & humble bragging?
Or the time the trolls literally told me to “fuck off” bc I said MLATs are in play for Ukraine & Russia
SO WEIRD FACT CHECK TRUE

Here’s the thing there’s a reason I keep referring to Nikulin’s emails:
[email protected]
[email protected]
tessa88 Maksim Vladimirovich Donakov
I think we are going to find out that Nikulin was far more involved in the 2015/2016/2017 hacks of 33M twitter passwords BTC etc

I saved ya a couple of bucks & uploaded the Govt’s amended exhibit list to a public drive
When I say this is a heavy document evidence case, I’m not exaggerating
Notable that the search warrants go back to 2011 to as recent as Feb 2020
I’M NOT DONE https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ZZrde0JfPq2IV6OEAcz5KHpGrjfIYPdx/view?usp=drivesdk

I archived tessa’s twitter account
Go down to the very first tweet & then work your way up.
I was NOT kidding or exaggerating “ tessa88 “ put a pin in that.
Also don’t over look Nikulin’s email addresses
ps don’t be that archive dick /snort
http://archive.is/Dyj2F 

By far this is the most comprehensive reporting on tessa88
- MLAT responses from Russia
Jan & Oct 2013
March 2016
Russia wanted us to extradite Nikulin back to Russia over $2,300+ in webpay NYET NYET NYET

At any rate I did promised you that’s I’d compete this thread after work - so for now consider the thread & update complete.
Also it’s kind of rude for others on twitter to lift your work and not attribute. I don’t know why people do that, for now I’m not going to name check you

It’s there.
Everything everyone told me that did NOT exist in the Nikulin indictment
ALL. OF. IT
FSB Captains
Encrypted Containers

When you read this MiL you need to understand this is the Govt arguing it should be excluded
Out of the gate in Nikulin’s opening statement he not only misrepresented AND mischaracterized Kislitsin‘s FBI interview but the role of “data broker”
MiL uploaded
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1B7uxVPGn1iUjh95pUoOv4dBUyS8ei8S0/view?usp=drivesdk

With respect to Nikita Kislitsin - I wasn’t being dramatic, almost 6 years to the date.
On March 2, 2020 his indictment was unsealed (see next tweet)

March 13, 2014
United States v. Kislitsin
Case No: 3:14-cr-00126

INDICTMENT as to Nikita Kislitsin

https://ecf.cand.uscourts.gov/doc1/035019021228?caseid=275433

3/2/2020 Order unsealing Kislitsin’s indictment, it’s not that surprising given it was relatively close to the beginning of Nikulin Criminal Trial
Notable 2014 indictment alleges they hacked google. IMO the MiL is the govt doesn’t want the door open HoMs
https://ecf.cand.uscourts.gov/doc1/035019021211?caseid=275433

YAY I’m glad I wasn’t the only one who noticed the multiple FSB connections and how Kislitsin likely cooperated...
More Glimpses Of How Russian Intelligence Utilized Hackers Revealed in U.S. Trial https://www.rferl.org/a/more-glimpses-of-how-russian-intelligence-utilized-hackers-revealed-in-u-s-trial/30491223.html

IMPORTANT READ this:

“USSS SA La Tulip, has possibly been exposed to the Coronavirus through his travels and contact with a person exhibiting symptoms consistent with Covid-19.... neither the ill person nor S.A. La Tulip have been tested for the virus”

https://ecf.cand.uscourts.gov/doc1/035019073443?caseid=304407

You have a FUCKING USSS SA EXPOSED & he hasn’t been tested
“..Defense..believe S.A. La Tulip’s appearance in the courtroom places all in attendance at undue risk and does not perceive this situation as a merely generalized fear or concern at this point..” https://drive.google.com/file/d/1kQ8FtTd6abv52g_7FABuElhEv_bV0DEo/view?usp=drivesdk

Here’s another datapoint the defendant that SA transported, the fact neither have been tested is deeply problematic.
-introduce the virus into a prison, super problematic
-USSS SA being exposed and he hasn’t been tested (no mention of self quarantining too) that’s horrible

Welp that kind of makes sense, if there’s a six county area of “shelter in place” then delaying is prudent
Although it’s unusual (but nice) to read a genuine sentiment of “thank you and take care” from the Judge.
Pretty sure this case will be continued until late April

Defendant (yesterday)30 day continuance
Court issued a MO for a 2 day - delay, reevaluating situation
Govt’s position is “re-evaluating” continuance v a mid-trial continuance & provided the Court of relevant legal authority.
Mistrial = double jeopardy
https://ecf.cand.uscourts.gov/doc1/035019074663?caseid=304407

IMO - the Govt attempts to give the court a wide berth. Preserving the “best interest” of justice, defendant’s rights & foreclose DJ, thus allowing the Govt -retry Nikulin. Provided the court “manifest necessity” standard. There are pros/cons to both a continuance and/or mistrial

At any rate I’m in a foul mood, approach with extreme caution. I locked my home-office door, after sharing my home- office space with him, I realized he’s super loud & annoying AF he is and that I’m a person that works best in silence
Here I saved you $.70 https://drive.google.com/file/d/1h2VHU2rKv9q6OIZvtk9r7TAf4-RVN389/view?usp=drivesdk

Interesting...I suppose we should wait until after tomorrow’s hearing to speculate how the Court will rule;
30 day Continuance
or
A mid-trial mistrial

Defendant Nikulin motion for Continuance (of his trial) to April 13, 2020 GRANTED

https://ecf.cand.uscourts.gov/doc1/035019083350?caseid=304407

Well GOOD I’m glad the test came back negative but I’m now incredibly intrigued who’s the Profferer and what did they proffer. Again I’m glad the SA wasn’t exposed
