Clinton Lawyer Michael Sussmann Indicted For Lying to FBI While Spreading The False Alfa Bank Trump-Russia Collusion Conspiracy on Behalf of Clinton Campaign
The Last Refuge ^ | SEPTEMBER 16, 2021 | Sundance

U.S. Special Counsel John Durham has released an indictment [pdf here] of Perkins Coie lawyer Michael Sussmann for lying to federal investigators in 2016 about the people and motives behind his FBI contact. He failed to tell them his intent was to spread a false Alfa Bank conspiracy theory on behalf of the Clinton campaign.

Working for the Perkins Coie law firm, while under contract with Hillary Clinton’s campaign, partner Michael Sussmann contacted FBI Legal Counsel James Baker to pitch evidence that a Russian bank was in digital communications with servers in Trump Tower. The Alfa Bank allegation was one of the key components for the ridiculous Trump-Russia narrative put together by the Hillary Clinton campaign. Sussmann wanted the FBI to investigate Donald Trump, so that Hillary Clinton could push a political fabrication about Donald Trump working with Russians to steal the presidential election.

According to the indictment, Sussmann failed to tell the FBI that he was giving them this information on behalf of the Clinton campaign. The FBI investigated the claims and found nothing; however, it was the appearance of the investigation that Clinton needed in order to leak/push the Trump-Russia story to the media and stir up the controversy. There had to be something to the “Trump-Russia” story, because the FBI was investigating it. That fabricated smear served its intended purpose, and the media ran with it.

With the indictment now public, The New York Times also now admits Michael Sussmann was their source for stories they wrote about Alfa bank:

New York Times – […] In early September, the indictment said, Mr. Sussmann met with a New York Times reporter who would later draft a story about Alfa Bank, and also began work on a so-called white paper that would summarize and explain the researchers’ data and...

It proves one thing we already knew - Hillary Clinton is Satan’s spawn.

Based on the prior lawyer that was charged who had his license reinstated nothing will happen.

Ask yourself this..... was this charged to further the cause of justice or was it charged to provide cover for the FBI who should have known his ties to the Clinton campaign and could have easily found out his connections in minutes with a basic query? I bet they did not even question his motives.....

I think I know the answer. Notice how they are going to pin it on this guy and not his boss, the Clinton campaign, or the agents who treated this info as legitimate.

Fall guy. Fall guys like him fall upward in DC. Lucrative contracts and board positions, status at the coffee clinks and black-tie dinners, and celebrity status at the big parties. His license will be reinstated within the year.

So, is this guy like in trouble or something. He certainly isn’t going to be locked up in solitary for a couple of years for wearing a MAGA hat in the Capitol.

And therein is the problem. Biden bragged about he and his son breaking the law and nothing happens. Hillary, Comey, Sharpton...no one ever goes to jail. Antifa and BLM matter burn down a dozen cities and they aren't even arrested. But, be a Conservative anywhere near the capitol on Jan 6 and you're in jail for 9 months, without bail, and you're not even given a trial date.

Tell me there's no Deep State.

Clinesmith got jail, no fine, and wasn’t disbarred.

The Judge said he was a good man.

Clinesmith cheered the Trump Resistance in correspondence after falsifying Documents presented to FISA Court.

100+ girls were raped and told the FIB and nothing happened
except the films were taken and watched with Hunter’s and
those from NY politicians.

NO ONE IS EVER PUNISHED.

NOT EVEN FOR TREASON.

EVER.
