- Has worked for FBI for 16 years -- from Des Moines IA and moved to Chicago in 2009 to work Counter Intel cases
- Worked on Both Hillary Email Investigation (mid-year exam) and Crossfire Hurricane in 2016
- Says he didn't intentionally withhold exculpatory evidence in Carter Page case (related to Carter Page FISA)
- Heide worked on George Papadopoulos case too.....
- Heide says Alfa Bank data came from an anonymous to James Baker (FBI) -- says he never learned the name of source
- Says info in the case file was a mistake in the paperwork and they may have conflated info that the data came from the DOJ and not the anonymous source
- Heide says case was referred to CI after the cyber investigators couldn't substantiate allegations in Alfa Bank white paper
- Heide asked to interview source of "white paper" in emails on 9/26/16 and 10/3/16 (never happened)
- Says that if the motives of the person bringing the allegations were clear, the FBI would decline to pursue like in other cases
BIG!
- Internal FBI text message shows convo between Heide and JP on 9/22/16: "Were leaning towards this being a false server and not attributed to the Trump organization"
- Some indication that by attributing the source to the DOJ and not to an "anonymous source" was the means the FBI used to conduct a "full investigation" into Alfa Bank allegations
- Instead of interviewing author of "white paper", Thomas Grasso provided the needed IP addresses to Heide (so why is Joffe's FBI handler giving info to the FBI?? We heard yesterday that David Dagon was the "author" of the white paper! Sounds like collusion if you ask me)
- File documentation says case was closed after a prelim. investigation -- which is wrong, the FBI did a "full investigation". Heide calls this a 'typo'. (So they appear to be calling deliberate acts a"mistake")
Impeachment Coming?
- One reporter notes the defense has a ton of crap to unload on Heide.....Stay tuned for X-examination
