The story reads like a diversion tactic. What proof is there that there was an FBI team waiting around? A compromised source (the unnamed lawyer) introduces a juicy lead just a the peek of other litigation in the reporters life. But the juicy lead comes of nothing. Don’t have any way to know if there was anything real behind it. A confusing hall of mirrors emerged where the reporter was going to a meeting arranged by a source compromised by the FBI and then canceled in effect by the same person. Reads like diversion and playing psyops on the reporter.
- sigmoid10 4y agoTo me it seems this whole story is based on the "adrenaline junky" lawyer who is also an established liar. He could have just made up the juicy leak and then chicken out when he would have to deliver. So he sent an anonymous mail and later made up the FBI story. Lots of smoke and mirrors but in the end all of it could be explained by one guy with nothing to show for trying to get some fame through the journalist.
