Bish told CNN Thursday that she went before the grand jury with the understanding that she was providing information in an federal investigation into Schiff, but that prosecutors “seemed more concerned” about looking into whether “there was #conspiracy or #collusion between me & Pulte or me & Ed Martin.”

Investigators had sought info about the possibility that there was a person who claimed to be working for Pulte or Martin, but was not properly deputized — 2 sources….

Bish previously said publicly she believed she had information to share about Schiff related to his mortgages.

Justice Department says full grand jury in Comey case didn't review copy of final indictment

The Justice Department says the grand jury that charged former FBI Director James Comey wasn’t presented with a copy of the final indictment

The Washington Post

Earlier in the day, #DOJ lawyer Tyler Lemons, who is prosecuting the case, also told U.S. District Judge Michael Nachmanoff that “someone” in #DAG #ToddBlanche’s office ordered him not to disclose whether career prosecutors in the Department of Justice authored a memo recommending that Comey should not be indicted. Lemons said that he was told he couldn’t disclose “privileged” information without permission.

The #Trump administration’s attempt to prosecute former FBI Director #JamesComey hit two major snags on Wednesday.

First, interim #USattorney for the Eastern District of Virginia #LindseyHalligan, who brought the #indictment, admitted the entire grand jury did not vote on the final indictment—a shocking development. Instead, only 2 grand jurors reviewed the indictment before it was presented in court.

DOJ Lawyers Admit Two Shocking Details That Could Blow Up Comey Case

Donald Trump’s revenge indictment against former FBI Director James Comey is off to a terrible start.

The New Republic

I need to reiterate how batshit crazy this is:

When Trump’s handpicked interim #USAttorney #LindseyHalligan briefly took the stand Wednesday, she said only 2 grand jurors reviewed the final #indictment it handed up against former FBI Director #JamesComey. Comey’s attorney then argued Halligan’s testimony indicates, “there is no indictment” against his client.
