do you appreciate the implications of thisMike Benz (@MikeBenzCyber):17) Importantly, Epstein was not a widely known figure at all in 1999. He only came into public awareness in 2001-2002, when the public became curious who was flying Bill Clinton around Africa. So Epstein checked if any CIA connections were public before he himself went public. ...

I would buthttps://t.co/qSno9lRpZGMike Benz (@MikeBenzCyber):10) For the record, I don't want to send this FOIA request because I don't want to get killed. ...

This is an important thread that shows how Y-O-U (yes you!) can force the CIA to turn over critical Epstein files it's holding.Mike Benz (@MikeBenzCyber):8) In theory, anyone right now could just FOIA the CIA for all records & correspondence related to reference numbers P-1999-02450 & P-2011-00673. In theory, the CIA would have to turn those Epstein files over immediately. We know the files exist. We know they're not classified. https://t.co/2yaWfcGB8F ...

25) Now, the question is, what brave soul will FOIA the CIA for all records and correspondence pertaining to reference file numbers P-1999-02450 and P-2011-00673? ...

24) And then it hit me. Epstein's lawyers didn't *ask* for classified records about Epstein. They asked for *something else* about Epstein, and whatever that was, it touched on something classified. ...

23) Remember, the CIA issued a DENIAL of some REQUEST. What kind of $2,000 / hour hotshot law firm partner would be so clueless and so incompetent that he'd REQUEST classified documents from the CIA in a FOIA? https://t.co/VhPHHzztEj ...

22) As I stared at this part of the CIA's response to Epstein's lawyers, I asked myself: "Why would a billionaire's highly paid lawyer do something so stupid as to directly ask the CIA for classified info in a FOIA? Of course you can't. Everyone knows the CIA's not allowed." https://t.co/j17H7b8EBT ...

21) Which leads to the big question: Did Jeffrey Epstein, in 1999, years before he became a public figure, directly ask the CIA to see his own personnel file? ...

20) As it turns out, the CIA saying it has no records that would reveal any "open or acknowledged Agency affiliation" followed by a GLOMAR denying both the existence and nonexistence of classified records is a stock CIA reply... when you FOIA the CIA for a CIA personnel file. https://t.co/PbkZcJUsUU ...

19) But it gets better. The fact the CIA searched for any "open or acknowledged Agency affiliation" does *not* mean that's what Jeffrey Epstein asked for. This paragraph only says the CIA has no open or acknowledged records on him. He could have asked a very different question. https://t.co/BX3W7NFV12 ...
