Relations subject stored as E. W. Priestap. Direct edges only, retrieved 2026-08-25. No officer HIT. Intergraph rows among neighbors are not redrawn. Emphasis is the compiler’s.
The DataRepublican node is E. W. Priestap — the same man this file calls Bill Priestap. The stored edges are the Australia information, the campaign investigation, Papadopoulos, Flynn, an FBI operation with Stefan Halper, and three Menschel in-law lines. That is the graph. It is not a family smear sheet beyond those stored labels.
The chart below is only the stored edges. A line is not a crime. A board seat is not an invented affiliation. Opinion is in the marked band at the bottom.

What this is not
It is not a finding that E. W. Priestap committed a crime. A stored “opened FBI investigation” edge is a stored label. The Horowitz report still governs what the inspector general found; this page does not rewrite it.
No officer HIT. Intergraph rows (Papadopoulos–Downer, Papadopoulos–Halper, Flynn pardon, and the rest) are not redrawn as if Priestap authored them.
It is not a White House product. It is not a Method page.
