Mueller Report Part 1 – Get comfy, this is going to be a long one

Here is the Full Mueller Report and A Reader Friendly Version, I strongly encourage you to read it for yourself. I will be quoting and explaining where needed.

Special Counsel Robert Mueller III, was appointed to investigate Russian interference in the 2016 election and any possible coordination between GRU (Russian Intelligence Agency) and the Trump campaign including possible wrong doing by Trump himself. There is understandably a great deal of confusion regarding “Russia-gate,” “collusion,” & Russian interference into our elections. Our intelligence agencies have notably been wrong &/or deeply misleading regarding foreign intelligence (see Gulf of Tonkin, Iraq War, etc). But there is consensus throughout the intelligence community and Department of State, Russia did interfere with our elections. There were coordinated misinformation campaigns on social media, the hacking of the DNC server (yes, I know there’s a ton of weird conspiracy theories, but I’m going with verifiable information), the hacking of 3rd party contractors of various voting districts voter rolls, et cetera.

Starting with the Introduction to Volume I, the report lays out the timeline of events and what will be covered in the report. The text after the Table of Contents begins on page 9.

This report is submitted to the Attorney General pursuant to 28 C.F.R. § 600.8(c), which states that, “[a]t the conclusion of the Special Counsel’s work, he . . . shall provide the Attorney General a confidential report explaining the prosecution or declination decisions [the Special Counsel] reached.”

This is the legal explanation for this report’s existence and the statute for filing it to the Attorney General. At this point, I need to remind people Mr. Mueller was appointed by Rod Rosenstein, the Former Deputy Attorney General, after then Attorney General Jeff Sessions recused himself from the Russia investigation. The Attorney General receiving this report was Sessions’ replacement, William Barr.

Evidence of Russian government operations began to surface in mid-2016. In June, the Democratic National Committee and its cyber response team publicly announced that Russian hackers had compromised its computer network. Releases of hacked materials–hacks that public reporting soon attributed to the Russian government–began that same month.

I know June 2016 feels like a lifetime ago, but this was THE DNC LEAKS that occurred at the time of the Convention. Additional hacked information was leaked in July, October, and November via WikiLeaks.

In late July 2016, soon after WikiLeak’s first release of stolen documents, a foreign government contacted the FBI about a May 2016 encounter with Trump Campaign foreign policy advisor George Papadopoulos. Papadopoulos had suggested to a representative of that foreign government that the Trump Campaign had received indications from the Russian government that it could assist the Campaign through the anonymous release of information damaging to the Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton. That information prompted the FBI on July 31, 2016, to open an investigation into whether individuals associated with the Trump Campaign were coordinating with the Russian government in its interference activities.

That whole set of talking points about the Obama administration making stuff up and spying on the Trump Campaign for no good reason…yeah – the Obama admin did NOT spy on the campaign, however they did start an investigation based on credible evidence. And not for nothing, Papadopoulos pleaded guilty for lying to the FBI about his role in the campaign and his meetings with people with substantial Russian government connections: US vs Papadopoulos. Which brings us to the next portion of the introduction, the investigations. Yes, before you ask, I will be linking to the Senate Committee’s investigation.

That fall, two federal agencies jointly announced that the Russian government “directed recent compromises of e-mails from US persons and institutions, including US political organizations,” and, “[t]hese thefts and disclosures are intended to interfere with the US election process.” After the election, in late December 2016, the United States imposed sanctions on Russia for having interfered in the election. By early 2017, several congressional committees were examining Russia’s interference in the election.

As promised, here is the link to the Senate Intelligence Report which found Russia did indeed interfere in the 2016 election. Portions of this report are redacted (blacked out) for national security reasons.

Within the Executive Branch, these investigatory efforts ultimately led to the May 2017 appointment of Special Counsel Robert S. Mueller, III. The order appointing the Special Counsel authorized him the investigate “the Russian government’s efforts to interfere in the 2016 presidential election,” including any links or coordination between the Russian government and individuals associated with the Trump Campaign.

Remember Trump pressuring Comey and Sessions to quell the investigation, Michael Flynn, White House Counsel, firing Comey, et cetera? Yup, that mess.

I swear I’m not going to type all 400+ pages of this report, but there are key points throughout that need to be made.

As set forth in detail in this report, the Special Counsel’s investigation established that Russia interfered in the 2016 presidential election principally through two operations. First, a Russian entity carried out a social media campaign that favored presidential candidate Donald J. Trump and disparaged presidential candidate Hillary Clinton. Second, a Russian intelligence service conducted computer-intrusion operations against entities, employees, and volunteers working on the Clinton Campaign and then released stolen documents. The investigation also identified numerous links between the Russian government and the Trump Campaign. Although the investigation established that the Russian government perceived it would benefit from a Trump presidency and worked to secure that outcome, and that the Campaign expected it would benefit electorally from information stolen and released through Russian efforts, the investigation did not establish that members of the Trump Campaign conspired or coordinated with the Russian government in its election inference activities.

No collusion so why read the rest of the report? Because crimes were committed. Even though Papadopoulos and others did not work with the Russians directly to influence the outcome of the election, these individuals did violate federal election laws and had inappropriate communications with people linked to the Russian government. Cover ups and obstruction are often more legally hazardous than the crimes themselves.

The report describes actions and events that the Special Counsel’s Office found to be supported by the evidence collected in our investigation. In some instances, the report points out the absence of evidence or conflicts in the evidence about a particular fact or event. In other instances, when substantial, credible evidence enabled the Office to reach a conclusion with confidence, the report states that the investigation established that certain actions or events occurred. A statement that the investigation did not establish particular facts does not mean there was no evidence of those facts.

Preponderance of evidence, also known as proof. There were some events the Counsel’s Office had all the proof they could possibly need for conviction, some events where there was conflicting verifiable information, and some events that reasonably could be concluded as facts, but there is not enough proof to get a conviction. Just because it is not charged, does not mean it did not happen.

This next part pertains to language and legal framework of the investigation with definitions and reasoning due to how events were being discussed and reported versus actual legal criminality.

In evaluating whether evidence about collective action of multiple individuals constituted a crime, we applied the framework of conspiracy law, not the concept of “collusion.” In doing so, the Office recognized that the work “collud[e]” was used in communications with the Acting Attorney General confirming certain aspects of the investigation’s scope and that the term has frequently been invoked in public reporting about the investigation. But collusion is not a offense or theory of liability found in the United States Code, nor is it a term of art in federal criminal law. For those reasons, the Office’s focus in analyzing questions in joint criminal liability was on conspiracy as defined in federal law. In connection with that analysis, we addressed the factual question whether members of the Trump Campaign “coordinat[ed]”–a term that appears in the appointment order–with Russian election interference activities. Like collusion, “coordination” does not have a settled definition in federal criminal law. We understood coordination to require an agreement–tacit or express–between the Trump Campaign and the Russian government on election interference. That requires more than the two parties taking actions that were informed by or responsive to the other’s actions or interests. We applied the term coordination in that sense when stating in the report that the investigation did not establish that the Trump Campaign coordinated with the Russian government in its election interference activities.

In a nutshell, the Counsel’s Office worked in the federal criminal code of conspiracy because there is not an established criminal legal framework for collusion. Also, while the separate groups were acting in ways that were to the other’s advantage, they were not working on the basis on an agreement or jointly planned actions.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY TO VOLUME I

This portion of the report has sections redacted for national security reasons and you will be able to clearly see the “Harm to Ongoing Matter” text each time a blacked out section appears.

Social Media Campaign

Think back to news reports about the Russian troll farm. That is what this section goes over.

The Internet Research Agency (IRA) carried out the earliest Russian interference operations identified by the investigation–a social media campaign designed to provoke and amplify political and social discord in the Unites States. The IRA was based in St. Petersburg, Russia, and received funding from Russian oligarch Yevgeniy Prigozhin and companies he controlled. Prigozhin is widely reported to have ties to Russian President Vladimir Putin, Harm to Ongoing Matter In mid-2014, the IRA sent employees to the United States on an intelligence-gathering mission with instructions Harm to Ongoing Matter The IRA later used social media accounts and interest groups to sow discord in the U.S. political system through what it termed “information warfare.” The campaign evolved from a generalized program designed in 2014 and 2015 to undermine the U.S. electoral system, to a targeted operation that by early 2016 favored candidate Trump and disparaged candidate Clinton. The IRA’s operation also included the purchase of political advertisements on social media in the names of U.S. persons and entities, as well as the staging of political rallies inside the United States. To organize those rallies, IRA employees posed as U.S. grassroots entities and persons and made contact with Trump supporters and Trump Campaign officials in the United States. The investigation did not identify evidence that any U.S. persons conspired or coordinated with the IRA. Section II of this report details the Office’s investigation of the Russian social media campaign.

Uber-rich Russian with ties to Putin funds an operation to cause havoc on our political processes. Oh and buy ads on social media platforms like FaceBook to further the misinformation campaign.

Russian Hacking Operations

Remember Guccifer 2.0 and DCLeaks prior to information dumps on WikiLeaks? That would be this part.

At the same time that the IRA operation began to focus on supporting candidate Trump in early 2016, the Russian government employed a second method of interference: cyber intrusions (hacking) and releases of hacked materials damaging to the Clinton Campaign. The Russian Intelligence Service known as the Main Intelligence Directorate of the General Staff of the Russian Army (GRU) carried out these operations. In March 2016, the GRU began hacking the email accounts of Clinton Campaign volunteers and employees, including campaign chairman John Podesta. In April 2016, the GRU hacked into the computer networks of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) and the Democratic National Committee (DNC). . . the GRU began disseminating stolen materials through the fictitious online personas “DCLeaks” and “Guccifer 2.0.” The GRU later released additional materials through the organization WikiLeaks.

Russian Intelligence hacked the Clinton Campaign, the Democratic National Committee, and the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee. They proceeded to leak the damaging stolen information via Guccifer 2.0, DCLeaks, and WikiLeaks in a way that would be the most damaging to the Clinton Campaign and overshadow headlines damaging to the Trump Campaign.

The presidential campaign of Donald J. Trump (“Trump Campaign” or “Campaign”) showed interest in WikiLeak’s releases of documents and welcomed their potential damage to candidate Clinton. Beginning in June 2016, Harm to Ongoing Matter forecast to senior Campaign officials that WikiLeaks would release information damaging to candidate Clinton. WikiLeak’s first release came in July 2016. Around the same time, candidate Trump announced that he hoped Russia would help recover emails described as missing from a private server used by Clinton when she was Secretary of State (he later said he was speaking sarcastically). Harm to Ongoing Matter

In case you were wondering, it is very clear in the video footage of Trump, that he was not in fact being sarcastic, but HERE is the YouTube link for you to judge for yourselves.

WikiLeaks started releasing Podesta’s stolen emails in October 2016 shortly after the Access Hollywood tape with Billy Bush –the grab her by the pussy– clip.

Russian Contacts With The Campaign

This is the part where media outlets, pundits, and conspiracy theorists have twisted everything into a knot. Fortunately, I have more than 30 years experience untangling knots.

The social media campaign and the GRU hacking operations coincided with a series of contacts between Trump Campaign officials and individuals with ties to the Russian Government. The Office investigated whether those contacts reflected or resulted in the Campaign conspiring or coordinating with Russia in its election-interference activities. Although the investigation established that the Russian government perceived it would benefit from a Trump presidency and worked to secure that outcome, and that the Campaign expected it would benefit electorally from information stolen and released through Russian efforts, the investigation did not establish that members of the Trump Campaign conspired or coordinated with the Russian government in its election interference activities.

Russia recognized they would benefit from Trump winning the election and worked to make sure that happened. People working for the Trump Campaign saw how they could swing the election in Trump’s favor by using the information stolen by the Russians and did in fact use the information to their advantage. Both of these things happened. Russia and the Trump Campaign did NOT, however, work together, which is the part talking heads got wrong. But if we’re honest, when was the last time most talking heads got things right? Seriously, I don’t care which political party you belong to, the talking heads are paid to suck.

The Russian contacts consisted of business connections, offers of assistance to the Campaign, invitations for candidate Trump and Putin to meet in person, invitations for Campaign officials and representatives of the Russian government to meet, and policy positions seeking to improve U.S.-Russian relations. Section IV of this Report details the contacts between Russia and the Trump Campaign during the campaign and transition periods, the most salient of which are summarized below in chronological order.

The most important contacts and periods between the Trump Organization, Campaign, and Transition team are summarized in order by when they happened in this section of the Report.

2015. Some of the earliest contacts were made in connection with a Trump Organization real-estate project in Russia known as Trump Tower Moscow. Candidate Trump signed a Letter of Intent for Trump Tower Moscow by November 2015, and in January 2016 Trump Organization executive Michael Cohen emailed and spoke about the project with the office of Russian government press secretary Dmitry Peskov. The Trump Organization pursued the project through at least June 2016, including by considering travel to Russia by Cohen and candidate Trump.

Trump signed a letter stating the Trump Organization was planning on a Trump Tower Moscow by November 2015. He had already announced his presidential campaign. His long time attorney, fixer, and Trump Organization executive, Michael Cohen, was in direct contact with the Russian government’s press secretary. The Trump Organization pursued the Trump Tower Moscow project through June 2016 at minimum.

Spring 2016.Campaign foreign policy advisor George Papadopoulos made early contact with Joseph Mifsud, a London-based professor who had connections to Russia and traveled to Moscow in April 2016. Immediately upon his return to London from that trip, Mifsud told Papadopoulos that the Russian government had “dirt” on Hillary Clinton in the form of thousands of emails. One week later, in the first week of May 2016, Papadopoulos suggested to a representative of a foreign government that the Trump Campaign had received indications from the Russian government that it could assist the Campaign through the anonymous release of information damaging to Candidate Clinton. Throughout that period of time and for several months thereafter, Papadopoulos worked with Mifsud and two Russian nationals to arrange a meeting between the Campaign and the Russian government. No meeting took place.

George Papadopoulos talks to Russian connected and London-based professor about damaging information on Hillary Clinton. They work with Russian nationals to arrange a meeting between the Trump Campaign and the Russian government, but a meeting never takes place. BUT, Papadopoulos does alert a member of a foreign government that a representative of the Russian government has hinted that they could help the Trump Campaign.

Summer 2016. Russian outreach to the Trump Campaign continued into the summer of 2016, as candidate Trump was becoming the presumptive Republican nominee for President. On June 9, 2016, for example, a Russian lawyer met with senior Trump Campaign officials Donald Trump Jr., Jared Kushner, and campaign chairman Paul Manafort to deliver what the email proposing the meeting had described as “official documents and information that would incriminate Hillary.” The materials were offered to Trump Jr. as “part of Russia and its government’s support for Mr. Trump.” The written communications setting up the meeting showed that the Campaign anticipated receiving information from Russia that could assist candidate Trump’s electoral prospects, but the Russian lawyer’s presentation did not provide such information. Days after the June 9 meeting, on June 14, 2016, a cybersecurity firm and the DNC announced that Russian government hackers had infiltrated the DNC and had obtained access to opposition research on candidate Trump, among other documents.

Those letters and all the talk about the purpose of the Trump Tower meeting being about Russian adoptions? Yup, all bullshit. That may have ultimately been what the presentation was about, highly unlikely given the 5 days between the Trump Tower meeting and the announcement of Russian government hacking, but the documented purpose of this meeting the Trump Campaign officials were expecting, was dirt on the Clinton Campaign.

The next portion deals with Carter Page. As we all know, the FISA Court has spoken publicly about the missteps the FBI did in light of the recent Department of Justice Inspector General Report. While Page did have contact with Russian intelligence operatives prior to and during his work with the Trump Campaign, it has become clear there was no provable conspiracy and coordination between the Russian government and the Trump Campaign. Carter Page, the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court, and the Inspector General’s Report get their own big post all to themselves.

. . . Page’s July 2016 trip to Moscow and his advocacy for pro-Russian foreign policy drew media attention. The Campaign then distanced itself from Page and, by late September 2016, removed him from the campaign. July 2016 was also the month WikiLeaks first released emails stolen by the GRU from the DNC. On July 22, 2016, WikiLeaks posted thousands of internal DNC documents revealing information about the Clinton Campaign. Within days, there was public reporting that U.S. intelligence agencies had “high confidence” that the Russian government was behind the theft of emails and documents from the DNC. And within a week of the release, a foreign government informed the FBI about its May 2016 interaction with Papadopoulos and his statement that the Russian government could assist the Trump Campaign. On July 31, 2016, based on the foreign government reporting, the FBI opened an investigation into potential coordination between the Russian government and individuals associated with the Trump Campaign.

The beginning of the investigation into Russian interference and the basis. Basis for the investigation was intelligence community confidence of Russian government hacking of the DNC in combination with a foreign government telling the FBI about their interaction with George Papadopoulos in May 2016. Again, Carter Page is his own mess that will be covered in a different post. To see the full paragraph regarding him in the Mueller Report, it’s on page 14.

Separately, on August 2, 2016, Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort met in New York City with his long-time business associate Konstantin Kilimnik, who the FBI assesses to have ties to Russian intelligence. Kilimnik requested the meeting to deliver in person a peace plan for Ukraine that Manafort acknowledged to the Special Counsel’s Office was a “backdoor” way for Russia to control part of eastern Ukraine; both men believed the plan would require candidate Trump’s assent to succeed (were he to be elected President). They also discussed the status of the Trump Campaign and Manafort’s strategy for winning Democratic votes in Midwestern states. Months before that meeting, Manafort had caused internal polling data to be shared with Kilimnik, and the sharing continued for some period of time after the August meeting.

Former Trump Campaign Chair Paul Manafort is currently in prison for multiple crimes–mostly involving his work in and involving Ukraine. The communications between Manafort and Kilimnik are important because Kilimnik has Russian intelligence connections, hand delivered a plan that gives control of Crimea (eastern Ukraine currently occupied by Russia and Russian backed separatists), and had ongoing discussions regarding campaign strategy with Kilimnik and by extension Russian intelligence getting internal polling data of U.S. elections.

Fall 2016. On October 7, 2016, the media released video of candidate Trump speaking in graphic terms about women years earlier, which was considered damaging to his candidacy. Less than an hour later, WikiLeaks made its second release: thousands of John Podesta’s emails that had been stolen by the GRU in late March 2016. The FBI and other U.S. government institutions were at the time continuing their investigation of suspected Russian government efforts to interfere in the presidential election. That same day, October 7, the Department of Homeland Security and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence issued a joint public statement “that the Russian Government directed the recent compromises of e-mails from US persons and institutions, including US political organizations.” Those “thefts” and “disclosures” of the hacked materials through online platforms such as WikiLeaks, the statement continued, “are intended to interfere with the US election process.”

Less than an hour after “Grab her by the pussy” tape aired, WikiLeaks does a data dump of John Podesta’s emails hacked by GRU in late March 2016. On the SAME DAY, DHS and DNI release a joint statement to the public that the Russian government directed and was behind the hacks for the purpose of messing with our election process.

Post-2016 Election. Immediately after the November 8 election, Russian government officials and prominent businessmen began trying to make inroads into the new administration. The most senior members of the Russian government encouraged these efforts. The Russian Embassy made contact hours after the election to congratulate the President-Elect and to arrange a call with President Putin. Several Russian businessman picked up the effort from there.

Foreign governments congratulating newly elected officials is not outside the norm. Immediately trying to make inroads and arrange meetings before a new administration begins, is out of bounds of normal diplomatic policy.

Kirill Dmitriev, the chief executive officer of Russia’s sovereign wealth fund, was among the Russians who tried to make contact with the incoming administration. In early December, a business associate steered Dmitriev to Erik Prince, a supporter of the Trump Campaign and an associate of senior Trump advisor Steve Bannon. Dmitriev and Prince later met face-to-face in January 2017 in the Seychelles and discussed U.S.-Russia relations. During the same period, another business associate introduced Dmitriev to a friend of Jared Kushner who had not served on the Campaign or the Transition Team. Dmitriev and Kushner’s friend collaborated on a short written reconciliation plan for the United States and Russia, which Dmitriev implied had been cleared through Putin. The friend gave that proposal to Kushner before the inauguration, and Kushner later gave copies to Bannon and incoming Secretary of State Rex Tillerson.

Hookay, a lot to unpack here. Erik Prince founded the government services and security company (aka private military/merc) Blackwater USA which has since changed its name to Academi. He is also the brother of Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos. Both of whom donated heavily to the Trump Campaign.

Steve Bannon–we should all remember–is a far right white supremacist and anti-semite heavily involved in Breitbart media. He was also a senior official in the Trump Campaign, Trump Transition Team, and the Trump White House until he and Trump famously fell out.

Jared Kushner is an incompetent business man married to President Trump’s daughter Ivanka Trump.

Rex Tillerson, prior to becoming Secretary of State, was the CEO of ExxonMobile. He is famously rumored to have called Trump a “fucking moron” prior to his leaving his position of Secretary of State in March 2018.

On December 29, 2016, then-President Obama imposed sanctions on Russia for having interfered in the election. Incoming National Security Adviser Michael Flynn called Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak and asked Russia not to escalate the situation in response to the sanctions. The following day, Putin announced that Russia would not take retaliatory measures in response to the sanctions at that time. Hours later, President-Elect Trump tweeted, “Great move on delay (by V. Putin).” The next day, on December 31, 2016, Kislyak called Flynn and told him the request had been received at the highest levels and Russia had chosen not to retaliate as a result of Flynn’s request.

Oh, Mikey Mikey Mikey. You should have known better. So here goes. Michael Flynn was a Lieutenant General in the United States Army prior to becoming National Security Adviser. In 2014, he founded Flynn Intel Group Inc with his son Michael G. Flynn. That company was closed down in 2016. In 2017, Flynn filed as a foreign agent for work he performed BEFORE the 2016 election on behalf of the Turkish government. He was an active foreign agent with his consultancy WHILE SITTING IN ON CLASSIFIED NATIONAL SECURITY BRIEFINGS during the Trump campaign. There are a ton of sources and details of how all of these activities were problematic and in some instances illegal. While I typically do not promote Wikipedia as a research source, there are MULTIPLE primary sources you can use for verification in Michael Flynn’s Wiki here. Bottom line, Flynn and Kislyak’s interactions regarding the sanctions against Russian government election interference were at minimum, inappropriate.

Sergey Kislyak, you busy busy boy.

On January 6, 2017, members of the intelligence community briefed President-Elect Trump on a joint assessment–drafted and coordinated among the Central Intelligence Agency, FBI, and National Security Agency–that concluded with high confidence that Russia had intervened in the election through a variety of means to assist Trump’s candidacy and harm Clinton’s. A declassified version of the assessment was publicly released that same day.

The declassified assessment can be found here.

…three congressional committees–the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI), the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence (SSCI), and the Senate Judiciary Committee (SJC)–announced that they would conduct inquiries, or had already been conducting inquiries, into Russian interference in the election. Then-FBI Director James Comey later confirmed to Congress the existence of the FBI’s investigation into Russian interference that had begun before the election. On March 20, 2017, in open-session testimony before HSPCI, Comey stated: I have been authorized by the Department of Justice to confirm that the FBI, part of our counterintelligence mission, is investigating the Russian government’s efforts to interfere in the 2016 presidential election, and that includes investigating the nature of any links between individuals associated with the Trump campaign and the Russian government and whether there was any coordination between the campaign and Russia’s efforts…. As with any counterintelligence investigation, this will also include an assessment of whether any crimes were committed. The investigation continued under then-Director Comey for the next seven weeks until May 9, 2017, when President Trump fired Comey as FBI Director–an action which is analyzed in Volume II of the report.

Here is confirmation investigations were ongoing prior to the election into interference. Investigations in their very nature are to discover if crimes were committed, who they were committed by, who they were committed with, and who benefitted from the crimes committed.

On May 17, 2017, Acting Attorney General Rod Rosenstein appointed the Special Counsel and authorized him to conduct the investigation that Comey had confirmed in his congressional testimony, as well as matters arising directly from the investigation, and any other matters within the scope of 28 C.F.R. §600.4(a), which generally covers efforts to interfere with or obstruct the investigation. President Trump negatively to the Special Counsel’s appointment. He told advisors that it was the end of his presidency, sought to have Attorney General Jefferson (Jeff) Sessions unrecuse himself from the Russia investigation and to have the Special Counsel removed, and engaged in efforts to curtail the Special Counsel’s investigation and prevent the disclosure of evidence to it, including through public and private contacts with potential witnesses. Those and related actions are described and analyzed in Volume II of the report.

There are Tweets, interviews, television/cable news coverage, radio coverage, newspaper articles, and so on can be easily found in a Google search.

I am ending part 1 of this series here. Part 2 coming soon.
