Updated FOIA Docs
As we wait for developments in our court cases, I thought I would release some documents from the last year. There are a couple stories inside, which I will try to get to, including some new thoughts on Tejas Patel’s work (we believe he was working for the FBI’s cyber division during 2016) which we previewed on Fool’s spaces chat the other night.
We’ll be working on removing redactions in the coming months.
Keromytis emails to/from FBI/DOJ
Previously shared files:
From DARPA - Requested emails in Schneck’s account to or from Keromytis, Patel, Joffe, Dagon, Antonakakis. Lawsuit and appeal in process for wrongfully omitted production. As you see throughout my other files below, we know there are tons more emails to/from Schneck because we already have hundreds.
From DARPA - Obtained via Freedom of Information lawsuit. The NSA holding Joffe’s security clearance was notable here, though I’m more interested in ties to the CIA.
From Georgia Attorney General - Discussions around paying the huge legal fees of David Dagon as work done in the “performance of his official duties”
From Georgia Attorney General - More discussions around paying invoices. Some important references to communications from Kate Wasch (from Georgia Tech) denying that they approved this work.
Context is that DARPA has denied approving this work by Dagon and Antonakakis [Proud to say Margot and I obtained the files that prompted this denial to Dunleavy in the spring]. So as noted from Kate Wasch, if Georgia Tech didn’t approve it and DARPA didn’t approve it, why should their hundreds of thousands of dollars in legal expenses be paid by the State of Georgia? This feels like a major scandal.
From Georgia Department of Administrative Services (DOAS) - Related to the payment of legal expenses above
From Georgia Tech [Discussing payment of legal fees]
From Georgia AG office - This was from the spring and had a lot of good stuff in it. I tweeted it out in the spring, but I didn’t have it included on my Substack before.
From Georgia Tech [To or From FBI/DOJ emails]
Some redacted files were produced fully in other batches, mostly in the link immediately above from the AG office.
Notable for some of the contacts within, certain FBI personnel listed are known to have worked the Guccifer 2.0 case.
From Georgia Tech [August]
Another highly redacted document, but there are some notable names that serve as research data points. Several DARPA officials here have ties to the CIA.
From Georgia Tech [September]
Another highly redacted document, but there are some notable names that serve as research data points. Several DARPA officials here have ties to the CIA.
Also gives a sense of the extensive relationships to DARPA/FBI
From Georgia Tech [Jan-March combined]
From Georgia Tech [April]
From Georgia Tech [Second April Batch]
From Georgia Tech [Obtained by Margot Cleveland Batch 1]
From Georgia Tech [Obtained by Margot Cleveland Batch 2]
From Georgia Tech [Legal Invoices Obtained]
From University of North Carolina [Batch 1]
From University of North Carolina [Batch 2] - A couple emails highly relevant to Fabian Monrose and/or ZeroPoint’s role
Rhamnousia Chat [Version 1] - Obviously highly redacted, but the unredacted portions are pretty striking and we know Dagon told John Durham these chat logs were important.
Plasmanet/Free Lotto - More notable recently in light of the TrustCor story. Vostrom Holdings did some work on PlasmaNet’s infrastructure and Vostrom doesn’t seem like a commercial vendor but we know Joffe had ties here.

DARPA Letter to Senator Grassley
More FOIA’s expected soon.
I appreciate your work and look forward to learning more as time goes by. I am a true believer that the entire Russia-gate hoax conspiracy was a watershed moment for American democracy, or rather marked the end, with an exclamation point, of a true democracy. This conspiracy showed that a rather small but powerful oligarchy could successfully demonize and delegitimize a candidate and ultimately a lawfully elected president, based on wholely manufactured lies. Many are implicated in this conspiracy and need to be held accountable.
All that said, it would be really useful if you could provide your own thoughts, theories, and suspicions of where all this leads to. What, in your mind, will the puzzle look like once all the pieces are assembled? I think this would greatly help and assist your readership in making sense of the various tidbits scattered about in the emails and other documents you are so carefully assembling.
Thanks again for this vital work.
