A key factual/interpretive thing comes into view: Shaw said Sussmann went to FBI bc frustrated NYT was delaying the story - to sex it up and create urgency. Bosworth says Sussmann believed story’s publication was imminent when went to FBI - to give heads up of what was coming
Bosworth tries to poke other holes. Sussmann was the last lawyer Dems would have sent if trying to conceal since FBI knew he was a Dem/DNC/campaign lawyer. Campaign didn’t direct or want him there; Joffe gained nothing. Source didn’t matter anyway; FBI didn’t even ask
Are those the three reporters who resigned their jobs around that time, and we’re bashed for being suspicious of the Russia/Alfa bank/Trump Tower link? One was Lichtblau.
