@DNI_Ratcliffe
last month further implicating Clinesmith, his lawyer approached Durham’s office about a deal.

That’s nice. Hopefully he spent the last month spilling the beans on everyone else. Note that the NYT piece takes pains to say Clinesmith did provide the unaltered email to the DOJ and that Climnesmith urged the DOJ to send all exculpatory evidence to the person preparing the warrant. The NYT writer probably thinks that’s evidence that no crime was committed, but more likely it’s the basis of a case showing that the recipients of Clinesmith’s emails were in on the crime, and likely that’s the stuff that Clinesmith is cooperating on.
Remember when someone posted about “classification should only be done to protect national security interests and not cover up embarrassing or illegal acts” (or, words to that effect)?
