Conservative author Jerome Corsi alerted longtime Trump adviser Roger Stone in early August 2016 that WikiLeaks planned to release material damaging to Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton, including documents related to her campaign chairman John Podesta, according to a draft court filing.

Corsi emailed Stone about WikiLeaks’s plans nearly 10 weeks before the group published Podesta’s hacked emails in October, according to the document, which was prepared by special counsel Robert S. Mueller III’s team as part of plea negotiations with Corsi that have collapsed.

“Word is friend in embassy plans 2 more dumps. One shortly after I’m back. 2nd in Oct. Impact planned to be very damaging,” Corsi wrote in the email quoted in the draft document, referring to WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange, who has been living in the Ecuadoran Embassy in London since 2012. The email was sent while Corsi was traveling with his wife in Italy.

The email continued: “Time to let more than [Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta] to be exposed as in bed w enemy if they are not ready to drop [Clinton]. That appears to be the game hackers are now about.”

The draft filing, first reported by NBC News and provided by Corsi to The Washington Post, provides a remarkable look at the case Mueller is building related to WikiLeaks and the most detailed allegations yet that a key associate in Trump’s orbit was provided advance knowledge of the group’s plans.

In July, Mueller indicted a dozen Russian military intelligence officers accused of conspiring to hack Democrats, including Podesta, and leaking their stolen emails to WikiLeaks.

Mueller is proving to be a partisan hack and a lousy law man.

Corsi has the goods on a certain case Mueller was involved with in Tennessee. Corsi will stand up and expose Mueller for what he is.

Hearsay. And not a crime. This stuff won’t even make it to evidence in a courtroom.

If he did, so what, good GOD, is that illegal. like is this a divergence from reality and the fact that a coup attempt was and is being made NOW and that sedition took place and not a GD thing is being done or even said about it any more not even by the repubs I guess! This has all just been pushed by the way side and the crimes aren’t going to be addressed by anyone and we are in such a hiss pissy fit over “what corsi may have sputtered to” SH*T!

At the time the media told us they could be forgeries and if not then they were stolen so we shouldn’t read them.

The documents that brought about the big case against Big Tobacco hiding the known effects of smoking were ‘stolen documents’.

“Mueller indicted a dozen Russian military intelligence officers”

And told Russian military intelligence the US has compromised them.

Mueller may have broken federal law by revealing probably classified information for no good reason.

If anything this proves that there was no collusion. The info did not originate with the Russians, it originated with Wikileaks.

No crime. But plenty of circumstantial evidence that there was no Russian collusion.

So here's what they are alleging / leaking:

Jerome Corsi (not associated with Trump campaign) found out that Wikileaks (not associated with Trump campaign) had more e-mails from Hillary (not associated with the Trump campaign) and told Rodger Stone (not associated with Trump campaign) but friends with Paul Manafort (associated with the Trump campaign for a while).

Oh no, constitutional crisis!

Why is this even important. It’s NOT AGAINST THE LAW.

The only play the RATS have is to string out Mueller so that he can STOP investigations into the RAT criminal acts. Trump's investigations into the RAT Deep STATE must be stopped at all cost and making up law violations is all part of the game they are playing.

A small added benefit is that Mueller gets to harass and financially punish Trump supporters. The legal fees to fight Mueller's angry Democrats will easily financially ruin most people.

If a series of real investigations are begun from the DOJ, then many RATS are going to be arrested for very serious crimes. That of course includes Comey, Lynch, Susan Rice, Brewnnen/Clapper, MANY at the DOJ/FBI, in fact this string goes all the way to Hussein himself. WIth Rosenstien kicked to the curb, the RATS feel very threatened.

When Mueller's "investigation" is terminated, even he will not be surprised when they knock on his door to arrest him. His list of crimes is probably as long as the Clinton's.
