Clinesmith was on the team that conducted the Clinton e-mail investigation, then the Carter Page FISA warrant, then placed on Mueller's Special Council team. He was hand picked for all of these jobs. He was no "middle-level shitstain career apparatchik", he was a core member of Comey's "dirty jobs" team. He was a guy Comey could count on to do whatever it took to help Hillary and destroy Trump.
Now the question is will Clinesmith flip? Was he smart enough to preserve evidence, or is he a true believer who is willing to take the fall for Comey? Yes, he almost certainly falsified the e-mail on orders from Comey and/or McCabe. Does he have evidence of that? Will he testify to that? What else did he do as a part of the Hillary, Page and Russia Russia Russia investigations? No way was this just a one time thing. People on those teams have to be worried.
He altered it because telling the truth on the fourth application would have revealed that the first three were also false.
In other words, he falsified the evidence in 2017 to hide the FBI's malfeasance in 2016.
That, my friends, is a conspiracy.
This was an important revelation legally.
1) The FISA warrants were all invalid. Period. We knew this, but now it is in black and white in a legal document.
2) It implicates others within the FBI and the special counsel who committed a fraud upon the court.
Clinesmith was NOT a “low-level FBI employee” as he has been described in the media. He was the counsel to the main investigators and he helped assemble the FISA and reviewed them. He was inside the core group of conspirators.
Mollie Hemingway is an outstanding reporter.
Mollie is my favorite. Hands down. She takes no crap and calls balls and strikes and she never comes across to me as partisan - ie “what a journalist is supposed to be.”
The New York Times, one of the corporate media outlets that helped the FBI weaponize its conspiracy theory that President Donald Trump had conspired with Russia to steal the 2016 election, claimed that the deal to plead guilty showed no evidence of a broad anti-Trump conspiracy among law enforcement officials.
I don't know if you like of dislike Sundance at Conservative Treehouse, but he has an interesting article about the Special Counsel distancing themselves from Clinesmith. Here's a link:
Weismann must be feeling some heat.
Thanks for the link
Treehouse ain’t my cup of tea, having gotten some things very wrong about Trayvon and the Gentle Giant, but they’ve gotten a lot of things right too
Dayum, that’s an ugly greasy-haired Nasty Woman
FOX News radio made sure to work that line into their reporting Friday about the Plea Deal
Along with the obligatory "without evidence" in their reporting on Trump claims of mail-in fraud
And don’t forget Hydroxychloroquine.
I’ve pulled my earbuds at work when the top-of-the-hour radio news comes on
FOX Radio sucks
I don’t need to hear the same thing I can get on every Lunatic Left news channels
Wring every iota of incriminating evidence he has out of him and then put him in medium security general population, IMHO.
