Conservative writer and conspiracy theorist Jerome Corsi is in plea negotiations with special counsel Robert S. Mueller III, according to Corsi and another person with knowledge of the talks.
The talks with Corsi an associate of both President Trump and GOP operative Roger Stone could bring Muellers team closer to determining whether Trump or his advisers were linked to WikiLeaks release of hacked Democratic emails in 2016, a key part of his long-running inquiry.
Corsi provided research on Democratic figures during the campaign to Stone, a longtime Trump adviser. For months, the special counsel has been scrutinizing Stones activities in an effort to determine whether he coordinated with WikiLeaks. Stone and WikiLeaks have repeatedly denied any such coordination.
Stone has said that Corsi also has a relationship with Trump, built on their shared interest in the falsehood that President Barack Obama was not born in the United States.
It is not clear what information Corsi could leverage to get a deal with prosecutors. However, he told the Daily Caller last week that prosecutors are focused on whether he had developed a source with inside information about WikiLeaks founder Julian Assanges plans.
Corsi said he did not have a direct source to the group. Instead, he said he developed a theory that Assange had access to hacked emails belonging to Hillary Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta and that WikiLeaks would release them in October 2016.
He told the Daily Caller that he shared his prediction with many people, including Stone.
If Mueller could prove that Corsi learned about Podestas emails from Assange or another person in contact with him, he could try to link WikiLeaks releases to Stone or others in Trumps world.

Nothing editorial here, huh?
Another case of opinion masquerading as news.
Of course they were. Another man on Trump’s pardon to-do list. I assume Kerry was Skull & Bones too.
He has some trivial things that the Office of the Special Counsel will blow up into “lying to federal prosecutors and/or FBI”.
And hope to leverage that to get Roger Stone in a similar vice.
And it’s all petty bullshit.
I am no Corsi fan, but if he were on the other side they would call him an investigative journalist, which is what he is.
I disagree. Seth Rich was the one who forwarded the Clinton/Podesta emails to WikiLeaks and the Obama/Clinton gang were livid and determined to find out who stole/leaked them. That's when Hayden was instructed to track anyone contacting WikiLeaks and caught Rich by phone/email. From what I've read, the Clinton mafia murdered him. Mueller is all about desperately searching for a crime, but is running on empty.
And the swamp is so bitter, they want Assange's head on a stick.
so much concern over the Podesta emails, the substance of which the FakeNewsMSM has barely covered.
so much proof of collusion between them and the Clinton campaign - can’t report on that.
no-one else is interviewing this Dem Senator, so get the details here:
14 Nov: Youtube: 36:25 Interview with John Milkovich: The Truth About Robert Mueller
Louisiana (Dem) State Senator has written a book “Robert Mueller: Errand Boy for the New World Order” about the life and crimes of the chief prosecutor of the land, Robert Mueller.

“...., built on their shared interest in the falsehood that President Barack Obama was not born in the United States.”
Who keeps repeating this drivel?
Obama is ineligible because his father was NOT an American citizen and therefore jr. has divided loyalties....to the US via his mother’s US citizenship and to the UK/Kenya via his father’s UK/Kenyan citizenship. A loyalty conflicted individual like Obama is exactly the sort of person the Founders sought to preclude from the Presidency.
His birthplace is a red herring meant to distract from his otherwise obvious ineligibility.
Mueller and his supporters should hang.
He’s preparing false accusations of a political nature to be used against Trump by the Rats. Has nothing to do with
a CRIMINAL indictment - just a political frame up.
He is a phony snake who should be investigated HIMSELF for collusion with Hillary over the Uranium mine deal
Quote: “Bingo! Unfortunately, re the Clinton fiasco there may be the challenge of working around granted immunities.”
It doesn’t matter. What matters is exposing everything that was done. I would LOVE a special prosecutor to conclude that there was a crime AND that despite this Clinton and her cronies were granted immunity.
Best news I’ve heard for years.
A 5 pound bag filled with 10 pounds of crap.
Corsi won't get any help from the house or senate. Trump is the only one with balls to attempt to try anything to help.
“Trump should have appointed the special counsel himself a year ago while Jeff Sessions was fluffing rosenstein and mueller. “
No. Trump should have replaced Jeff Sessions and Rosenstein over a year ago and had the new AG appoint a special counsel.
Payback investigation
The point is he doesn’t need his AG to appoint a special counsel when he could do it himself.
Mueller, rosenweaseal and that rat bastard Jeff Sessions should’ve been fired the minute they instigated the special counsel coup against Trump but Trump was advised against it by his deep-state compromised white house counsel and threatened by his own party if he did so.
There should be an independent AG and the AG should appoint or assign prosecutors as needed to go after wrongdoing — wherever it is ... regardless of party.
Any reasonable AG would go after Hillary and the Clinton Foundation. No need for Trump to do anything.
Mueller will try and get Corsi to admit to something that is not true in order for Corsi to go free. That is the way that Mueller works. He has a despicable history of being a dirty cop.
