Corsi sues Mueller over alleged grand jury leaks, seeks $350M in damages: report
Fox News ^ | 12/9/2018 53 minutes ago | Edmund DeMarche | Fox News

Jerome Corsi, the conservative author accused of lying under oath to Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s investigators, filed a federal lawsuit late Sunday accusing Mueller of leaking grand jury items and various constitutional violations, including illegal surveillance, reports said.

Politico reported that the newly filed suit claims that Mueller tried to get Corsi to give testimony that Corsi said is false. He is reportedly seeking $100 million in actual damages and $250 million in damages due to injury to his reputation.

The author has theorized that investigators hoped that he would admit to a connection with WikiLeaks' Julian Assange. The connection would bolster their Russian collusion investigation, he said. A link between Corsi and Assange would make it easy to tie in President Trump's former adviser Roger Stone, he said.

American intelligence agencies have assessed that Russia was the source of hacked material released by WikiLeaks during the 2016 election that damaged Hillary Clinton’s campaign. Mueller’s office is trying to determine whether Stone and other associates of President Trump had advance knowledge of WikiLeaks’ plans.

Corsi, the former Washington bureau chief of the conspiracy theory outlet InfoWars, rejected a deal with investigators that would have required him to plead guilty to perjury. He said he could not lie to something he knew to be false, even if it meant living out his life in prison.

They always initially start with a high amount and settle for less.

Couldn’t Corsi demand proof that it was the Russians who hacked the DNC. The DNC wouldn’t allow the FBI to look at their server. That was all part of the plan. The FBI didn’t want to look at the server because they KNEW it wasn’t the Russians. They knew it was Seth Rich.

So, has any proof ever been shown that it was the Russians?

long shot, but I hope he at least gets discovery to blow Mueller out of the water.

Amount is irrelevant. What is important is what comes out of this in discovery.

Not sure how this is supposed to work... Federal prosecutors pretty much have air-tight bulletproof level imunity.

Mueller thinks he’s The Government, the government is all powerful, therefore he is all powerful and no one can touch him.

Where he and Rodney ever came up with that concept in the Federal Republic (started by my ancestors, not his - his family was still in Prussia / East Silesia marching around with pointy helmets) of the United States of America only they know. The rest of us just see an ordinary mortal out committing acts of oppression under color of law.

The government can waive Sovereign Immunity in certain circumstances - i.e. the government agrees to be sued.

In Mueller’s case not clear, but the stretch to get him on a claim is a lot shorter then trying to claim that a personal payment to a female shakedown artist is a campaign contribution.

At least someone’s fighting back against the mueller poison. (How long is PDJT going to keep this mueller krap going?)
