An Obama judge will not allow Hillary Clinton’s tweet claiming Trump colluded with Russia to be admitted as evidence in Michael Sussmann’s trial.
As previously reported, Special Prosecutor John Durham wanted to use Hillary Clinton’s tweet accusing Trump of having a secret line of communication with Russian Alfa Bank as evidence in Michael Sussmann’s trial next month.
Hillary Clinton’s 2016 campaign lawyer Michael Sussmann’s motion to dismiss Durham’s case was denied by a federal judge a couple weeks ago.
Sussmann was indicted last September for lying to the FBI.
According to the indictment, Sussmann falsely told James Baker he wasn’t doing work “for any client” when he asked for a meeting with the FBI where he presented bogus evidence the Trump Tower was secretly communicating with Kremlin-tied Alfa Bank.
The defamatory tweet is still on Twitter.

I wonder what this Obammie Feral “Judge” is worried about. Hmmmm?
This clown “judge” is a Trump-hating AFRICAN-American. He needs to recuse himself from this case.
You’re absolutely right.
I think the point that Durham was trying to make with the Clinton tweet was that the tweet proves that she had knowledge of the materials that Sussman, Elias, FusionGPS, and Perkins Coie were manufacturing.
Clinton knowing about the hoax materials would be proof that Sussman was engaged in work for the Clinton campaign, which would prove the lie that Sussman wasn't doing work "for any client."
Durham was intending to juxtapose this with the attempts by Elias and Perkins Coie to have their documents client-attorney excluded as protected work product. That would only be possible if they were working on behalf of a client. Marc Elias was already trapped into that argument and tried to backpedal his prior comments about providing legal services for a client.

I don’t see where Hillary’s statement/tweet is relevant. It would be if Hillary was a co-defendant.
why would he disallow a tweet, ugh
A Twitter post from Hillary Clinton that makes use of the fruit of Sussman's lie tends to corroborate that Sussman was working for Clinton or her campaign.
already known? In a trial, nothing whatever is known unless it is admitted in evidence.
Because those who belong to "The Club" protect their own.
Conspiracy itself is not a crime. It has to be a conspiracy related to an underlying crime -- i.e., "conspiracy to commit murder," "conspiracy to defraud investors," etc.
What would the underlying crime be? I'm not saying there is none, but the charge in this case -- lying to the FBI -- seems to stand on its own without any link to an underlying conspiracy related to a crime.
A Twitter post from Hillary Clinton that makes use of the fruit of Sussman’s lie tends to corroborate that Sussman was working for Clinton or her campaign — especially if the tweet was made very soon after the fruit developed, allowing an inference that either she had back-channel access to the information or that it was all lined up ahead of time.
They have also sh*tcanned attorney-client (along with any attorney confidentiality requirement per the Rules of Professional Conduct) and executive privileges, as well
It’s not going to matter how much evidence Durham has if it has to go through the DC courts. No Democrat is held to justice in the DC courts.
My goodness DC is such a small town and so I bred to boot.
Do I REALLY need to look at the Judge’s pic???
Not at all. Go with your gut instinct for your answer.
The motive is ensnare and strike fear into others involved who might turn state’s evidence or cut deals. By keeping the focus on a single defendent it makes discovery the route to bring others up on charges. The only purpose is to make this take longer. The longer one trial the more time criminals have to cover their tracks or kill those who would harm the Obama-Clinton-DNC RICO.
Re: 24 - Thanks for the good explanation. Refreshing compared to the low intellect outrage and ignorance.
How about using the manufactured information as the basis for a FISA warrant against Trump campaign workers?
That would be perjury, illegal wiretapping, entrapment against people like Carter Page and George Papadopoulos based on the FISA warrants, etc.
