Durham Indicts Perkins-Coie Lawyer for Lying About His Employment By the Clinton Campaign When Peddling a Lie to the FBI

I covered the story that Durham might indict this guy for lying to the FBI (during an official investigation) last night.

Sussman's defense is that he wasn't working for Clinton when he... ahem, completely independently brought the Alfa bank server bullshit to the FBI. He's claiming he just brought over that information due to his being a patriot, not because he was working for Clinton.

But... his own billing records say he was working for Clinton for the Alfa bank hoax.

Because he lied to the FBI five years ago -- I guess September 19, 2016 -- Durham had until this weekend to beat the five year statute of limitations.

Surprising most, he actually indicted him.

A federal grand jury has returned an indictment against cybersecurity attorney Michael Sussmann, who represented the DNC in connection with the 2016 Russia hack. Special Counsel John Durham sought the charge.

The grand jury indictment accused Sussmann of lying when he "stated to the General Counsel of the FBI that he was not acting on behalf of any client in conveying particular allegations concerning a Presidential candidate, when in truth, and fact, as the defendant well knew, he was acting on behalf of specific clients, namely, Tech Executive-1 and the Clinton Campaign," reports Huffington Post.

As the excerpt from the indictment below spells out, Sussaman knowingly passed a false claim to the FBI, and then lied about who he was working for. This caused the FBI to take this false-from-the-start claim seriously, and resulted in the material harm to an ongoing investigation.

Thanks to Tami.

Barr and Durham are swamp rat RINO trash that didn't do fucking shit about the blatant criminal behavior of the FBI. What a shock that the FBI ignored an asshole that was molesting literally hundreds of girls.

Frankly at this point my anger at the Democrats is lower than my anger at the RINO trash that not only does fuck-all about it, but actively prevents anybody else from doing anything.

23 Didn't the last nobody who got indicted for lying or the like get a slap on the wrist? That's the procedure: (1) indict a flunky; (2) give the flunky a plea deal with a slap on the wrist; and (3) insist it goes no further than the Cleveland office.

Posted by: jbspry at September 16, 2021 04:58 PM (ATe9j)

45 It reminds me of the Clinesmith thing. The implication here is that Sussman squealed (which is what usually is the situation with a big investigation--the squealer gets the first indictment on a relative soft minor crime--and that's what gets the ball rolling as everyone scrambles for a plea deal.)

But in Clinesmith's case, that didn't happen. He was it, and his sentence was eventually reduced. So this could be a big deal or a nothingburger

They also have a "U.S.-based university" dead to rights. Following the money, Sussman used academic researchers employed under a government contract on a "research project" at that university to hack the Trump info.

That university, whoever it is, is liable if the researchers committed illegal acts. As the indictment apparently says they did.

I may not have written that eloquently. There is no reason it should have taken five years for an indictment. It wasn't the Lindbergh kidnapping. A case like this should take a year, tops, or slightly more if they're slow with the information.

I am not saying that you aren't making any sense, just this shitshow doesn't make sense. I mean, he could have let the limitations toll at this point. Getting a Clinesmithian plea deal isn't going to make any points for Durham. And no way he gets a conviction in DC court. So what's the point? He could have just let it run out, filed a confidential report to the AG as the regulation requires, and gone to work for some big bank. If this is just the first one out of the gate to be followed by lots of others, it kinda makes sense - but I don't believe that to be the case for a minute.

182 Dementia Man deliberately killing Floridians by taking away COVID monoclonal treatments.

Rand Paul was on Beck's show yesterday and at the end of the interview, he implored people who truly are very sick with the coof and feel the need to go to the ER, to ask for it immediately. He claimed that if you wait until you have been admitted, you will most likely be denied the option. Granted, I don't have a linked source. This is just what I heard on the radio, on my way to work.

184 Pence was a piece of shit that was politically dead until Trump made him VP. Another solid Trump pick that almost everyone here saw a mile away was Dubya 2.0, but less charismatic and had a stick up his ass.

I'm just sour with Trump right now, but I proudly voted for him twice. I think he was worth the price just for the masks he dropped.

But I just see a collapsed Biden/Harris Presidency and nation on the brink and am afraid Trump is going to be a GOP version of Adlai Stevenson that just keeps running for President and losing until he dies. Even after all of this, I could still see Biden beating Trump again.

Then collect their fat payout from Uncle Sugar for following their coof protocols. If you're that bad off, I'd try to find a place to get the monoclonal antibodies, but the Biden regime has seized control of those as well, so if you live in a red state, you might be fucked.

Fauci was already in his position. Trump didn't appoint him. And don't forget that he had others up there as well.

No offense taken, btw. One of the courses of actually growing up was to understand when people have a different opinion of anything else, including me.

I think Trump was too naive about what he would encounter in Washington. He thought he could break down barriers just by being willing to deal. I think he would have given the Dems more than many people here would have been comfortable with had Nanzi and Shroomer been willing to deal.

For example, he thought he could "drain the swamp". We now know that it was never that easy. That this power to try people ex-parte that they had received with such earnest vows was now used like toilet paper.

Nixon, Ford, Reagan, both Bushes - which one reduced government in any meaningful way? None; they mostly solidified expansions or expanded it in their own right. And we supported that. For decades. And now some of us are very ass-mad that one guy we elected, who was resisted by his own party at very turn, didn't somehow topple a system we helped labor to build for decades.

Dear Dems,
IT WAS ALL A LIE

Creating A "Narrative"
"Tech Executive-1 used his access at multiple organizations to gather & mine public & non-public Internet data regarding Trump & his associates w/ the goal of creating a "narrative" regarding the candidate's ties to Russia"

R1 queried data for the .trump-email domain then emailed TE1 a list of domains that communicated w/ it - none of which appeared to have links to Russia".

R1 noted that the list "does not make much sense w/ the storyline you have," referring to the Trump-Russia storyline

273 184 Pence was a piece of shit that was politically dead until Trump made him VP. Another solid Trump pick that almost everyone here saw a mile away was Dubya 2.0, but less charismatic and had a stick up his ass.

I'm just sour with Trump right now, but I proudly voted for him twice. I think he was worth the price just for the masks he dropped.

But I just see a collapsed Biden/Harris Presidency and nation on the brink and am afraid Trump is going to be a GOP version of Adlai Stevenson that just keeps running for President and losing until he dies. Even after all of this, I could still see Biden beating Trump again.

--

The Trump white house was disappointing on this. The FBI lied about everything as we've seen in the DOJ's motion to dismiss the guilty plea.

Any sharp attorney should've seen the setup, especially when the interview was when flynn was on a beach and the fibs were just shootin' the shit with him and didn't bother to write down their 302s.

what they ultimately came up with was that flynn said we didn't discuss sanctions but we did discuss reprecussions when in reality flynn may have discussed reprecussions, eh? Also, Flynn couched his answer with "you guys probably already know this but here's what I think"

then the DOJ discovered the FARA is not being enforced or followed, so they cornered him on that.

His high priced lawyers thought, because this was the normal course of business, that they could just submit a retroactive FARA application but the DOJ then tried to charge them as co-conspirators (IIRC) and then did the same thing to his kid.

I'm pretty sure that the DOJ also willingly misread FARA to weaponize it this way against every Republican whose ever talked to a foreigner without ever, you know, applying it to Hunter Biden, for example.

Posted by: It's me donna at September 16, 2021 05:41 PM (L91xj)


Yep. It's a shitty name - but yes, that's the definition of White Priv. The idea that you can determine your own course. Make your own decisions. Sink or swim according to your own choices.

They picked White because "White" ... but that's where we are at.

Trump caught on way too late. Remember his convo with Lampstand Comey?

If his guys *really* did something, he'd like to know. He took Comey for being on the up-and-up during this time.

I think it's a flaw that Trump did not see that right from the beginning, nobody in Washington was calling for him to be that President that gets things done. It certainly makes career politicians look bad to come with this "solution" or that "solution" when a newbie laps them right out of the gate.

But that's not a flaw that diminishes Trump to me.

Right. When it's simply the FIB's word that he lied. And they have evidence that Lisa Page "dropped off some edits" to the 302.

The FIB didn't have the evidence to prosecute him. So, what do you know, as well as lying about Carter Page while trying him ex-parte, they edited the 302s so Flynn "said" something the FIB agent doesn't remember him saying.

Total shit show.

Let's say by some miracle DeSantis is elected, do you think he's has a whole team of outsiders lined up to take over all the federal agencies or is he going to do exactly as Trump did, defer to the RNC and keep the same old people with a few heavy hitting RNC donors thrown in?

349 Regarding criticisms of Trump's choices:

We can see that Trump made some bad choices. I suspect, though, his choices were the best of the options he had. In many cases he had a bunch of bad options. In order to create good options, he would have had to have some rather extraordinary Jedi-like influence, power, and knowledge.

Really, he does not have the authority to fire every anti-American swamp critter, even though they all need to be fired. He did a great job of exposing their perfidy and nudging the American people in a better direction. And he made tremendous strides in restoring our prosperity and peace in spite of the swamp.
