There's so much going on I start to feel the whole Epstein thing was done to divert attention from Mueller or Yemen or Iran's ships.

I too wondered why Epstein was killed was suicided at the time he was and asked what stories just got kicked off the front page?

But as for the media covering this I'm not going to hold my breath because they haven't covered any of the other stories about Hillary's emails. But from the first IG report that was redacted we learned that the FBI knew that her server wasn't secure and had been hacked by more than one country. We were told that Horowitz was a reputable guy who would get to the bottom of the FBIs bogus investigation, but not much more information has come from him. Most of the new things I have learned has come from Judicial Watch. But no one is covering that either except for Marcy Wheeler who is picking and choosing which info she thinks is totally irrelevant. I have been asking her about the other things JW posted, but she doesn't answer me. I'm actually surprised that she hasn't blocked me yet. lol..

appears to have created the email account and named it after a Chinese company. But that doesn't mean the government of China hacked Clinton's emails, at least as far as I can make sense of the article.

Why Were Hillary Clinton's Emails Blind-Copied To Gmail Address Named After Chinese Firm?

… McMillian and Rucker were interviewed by the Senate Finance and Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs committees on Dec. 4, 2018, in response to media reports that cited anonymous sources claiming that China gained access to Clinton’s emails. The committees released unclassified versions of those transcripts (pdf) along with several sets of supporting documents on Aug. 14.

… In the letter, Horowitz and Intelligence Community Inspector General Michael Atkinson write that the Carter Heavy Industries email account was created by Platte River Networks employee Paul Combetta, who managed Clinton’s email server. Combetta allegedly created the Carter Heavy Industries email on Aug. 20, 2012, to serve as a “dummy email.” Combetta then used the email in order to transfer messages archived on Clinton’s second private server to the Platte River Networks server in early 2014.

... Combetta’s use of this email account is addressed in Horowitz’s report, although it is referred to as a “dummy email” instead of revealing the actual address. Horowitz and Atkinson do not explain how Combetta came to pick the email address. Combetta’s lawyer told Horowitz that the Carter Heavy Industries email was a made-up name and that Combetta had no connection to Shandong Carter Heavy Industry Co., Ltd.

Combetta, through an attorney, refused to be interviewed by the DOJ inspector general about the matter, according to the letter. He also said he had no documents responsive to subpoena about the issue.

Horowitz wrote that his office did not find any evidence to contradict the claims of Combetta’s lawyer.

“Accordingly, other than the similarity discussed above between the dummy email address and the name of a Chinese company identified by the former ICIG analyst and former Inspector General McCullough during a Google search, the ICIG and the DOJ OIG are unaware of any information that links Combetta or the dummy email address that he created with the Chinese government or a Chinese-owned company,” Horowitz and Atkinson wrote.

OK. So Combetta chose a name that suggests a Chinese company. Why? He refused to be interviewed by the DOJ inspector general about the matter. Why?

I'm not questioning your reporting of this, snoopydawg. I'm concerned about what this issue represents. There's so much going on I start to feel the whole Epstein thing was done to divert attention from Mueller or Yemen or Iran's ships. But in reading Whitney Webb I find Epstein was connected to Israeli intelligence as well as to private Israeli spyware theft or contracting.

…In 2015, a few years after Epstein’s release from prison following his conviction for soliciting sex from a minor in 2008, Barak formed a company with Epstein with the chief purpose of investing in an Israeli start-up then known as Reporty. That company, now called Carbyne, sells its signature software to 911 call centers and emergency service providers and is also available to consumers as an app that provides emergency services with access to a caller’s camera and location and also runs any caller’s identity through any linked government database. It has specifically been marketed by the company itself and the Israeli press as a solution to mass shootings in the United States and is already being used by at least two U.S. counties.

... The company’s executive team are all former members of different branches of Israeli intelligence, including the elite military intelligence unit, Unit 8200, that is often likened to Israel’s equivalent of the U.S. National Security Agency (NSA)... another Carbyne co-founder, Lital Leshem, also served in Unit 8200 and later worked for Israeli private spy company Black Cube. Leshem now works for a subsidiary of Erik Prince’s company Frontier Services Group, according to the independent media outlet Narativ.

The company also includes several tie-ins to the Trump administration, including Palantir founder and Trump ally Peter Thiel — an investor in Carbyne. In addition, Carbyne’s board of advisers includes former Palantir employee Trae Stephens, who was a member of the Trump transition team, as well as former Secretary of Homeland Security Michael Chertoff. Trump donor and New York real-estate developer Eliot Tawill is also on Carbyne’s board, alongside Ehud Barak and Pinchas Buchris.

Narativ, which wrote the first expose on Carbyne after Epstein’s arrest, noted that the Chinese government uses a smartphone app very similar to Carbyne as part of its mass surveillance apparatus, even though the original purpose of the app was for improved emergency reporting. According to Narativ, the Chinese Carbyne-equivalent “monitors every aspect of a user’s life, including personal conversations, power usage, and tracks a user’s movement.”

Given the history of Robert Maxwell — the father of Epstein’s long-time “girlfriend” and young-girl-procuring madam, Ghislaine Maxwell — in promoting the sale of Carbyne’s modified Promis software, which was also marketed as a tool to improve government efficacy but was actually a tool of mass surveillance for the benefit of Israeli intelligence, the overlap between Carbyne and Promis is troubling and warrants further investigation.

It is also worth noting that Unit 8200-connected tech start-ups are being widely integrated into U.S. companies and have developed close ties to the U.S. military-industrial complex, with Carbyne being just one example of that trend.

As MintPress previously reported, Unit 8200-linked outfits like Team8 have recently hired former National Security Agency (NSA) Director Mike Rogers as a senior advisor and gained prominent Silicon Valley figures, including former Google CEO Eric Schmidt, as key investors. Many American technology companies, from Intel to Google to Microsoft, have merged with several Unit 8200-connected start-ups in recent years and have been moving many key jobs and operations to Israel with backing from key Republican donors like Paul Singer. Many of those same companies, particularly Google and Microsoft, are also major U.S. government contractors.

@Deja

Hillary said that she relied on him for foreign policy advice and having a server under her control would allow anyone access to them. We do know that people from her foundation had access to them. Chelsea admitted that and said it was she could know where to send Bill to collect money after Hillary did her thing as Secretary of State. The Clinton family had to grift together don't you know? Sydney Bluementhal was another person who had access to the server. After Obama told Hillary that he was not to be involved with any state department work she hired him through her foundation and she let him help her with state department actions. It was Sydney who thought invading Libya was such a good idea. Was Obama aware of that? I'm betting on that he did. And did nothing.

the Carter Heavy Industries email account was created by Platte River Networks employee Paul Combetta, who managed Clinton’s email server. Combetta allegedly created the Carter Heavy Industries email on Aug. 20, 2012, to serve as a “dummy email.” Combetta then used the email in order to transfer messages archived on Clinton’s second private server to the Platte River Networks server in early 2014

Maybe the people trying to sell this line of bullshit are banking on the fact that most people are technologically ignorant. Most people don't understand that email messages aren't actually stored on whatever device a person uses to read/write them. They're stored on a server or a series of servers.

This Paul dude who was managing Lying Hillary's private email servers did not need to have every email basically blind copied to a "dummy" email account in order to get a copy of every one on Private Server 1 (PS1) and Private Server 2 (PS2) onto his own company's server. He easily could have remoted into PS1 from his company's server and made the transfer. Repeat for PS2. It's only slightly more complicated to do the same from a 3rd device like a desktop or laptop computer, with the same end result -- all emails from PS1 & PS2 copied onto the tech company's server.

However, that's even a convoluted way of doing it. At setup of each PS, you set up a rule that puts a copy of each email sent/received on the tech company's server to begin with. Done.

I'm not buying the story this Paul dude's attorney is selling. It is illogical. Though, other than maybe saving a copy for blackmail or sale to someone, I can't think of a logical reason as to why the guy blind copied every email to another email account.

I'd like to see user login logs for the alleged "dummy" email account! For all we know, someone like Henry Fucking Kissinger was reading them from the fake account.
