The Epoch Times was started in 2000 by John Tang and a group of Chinese Americans; the founders say they were responding to censorship inside China and a lack of international understanding about the Chinese repression of Falun Gong.[12][13] In May 2000, the paper was first published in the Chinese language in New York, with the web launch in August 2000.[14]

I'm still a little leery of their political Falun Gong connection(s), but find their reporting on the Russiagate issue superb. In fact, the following piece's author, Jeff Carlson, has been so on top of all the recently released House hearing transcripts on the subject that it's been said his coverage is why TNYT (per the FBI) released their FBI piece last Friday, to try to get ahead of what Carlson's already been reporting on.

Carlson also mans his blog, themarketswork.com, where his continuing coverage on the transcripts is also, naturally, aired.

EXCLUSIVE: McCabe’s FBI Tried to Re-engage Christopher Steele After Comey Was Fired
Transcript of congressional testimony by DOJ official Bruce Ohr shows FBI went back to disgraced source between Comey’s firing and Mueller’s appointment

In the days following the firing of FBI Director James Comey by President Donald Trump, the FBI, under Acting FBI Director Andrew McCabe, sought to re-engage with former MI6 spy and author of the Steele dossier, Christopher Steele.

The FBI’s attempts to re-engage Steele, who had been fired by the FBI six months earlier for breaking protocol by talking to reporters, were soon thwarted by the appointment of special counsel Robert Mueller.

McCabe appears to have been blindsided by the appointment of Mueller, who was appointed as special counsel on May 17, 2017, the day after a meeting with Trump and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein in the oval office.

The appointment of Mueller shifted control of the Russia investigation from the FBI and McCabe to Mueller. Rosenstein would retain ultimate authority over the probe, and any expansion of Mueller’s investigation required authorization from Rosenstein.

McCabe had been a key player in the FBI’s counterintelligence investigation of the Trump presidential campaign, which relied heavily on information provided by Steele. The FBI also obtained a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) spy warrant on Trump campaign adviser Carter Page using the information.
