John Durham sent a message to the attorney general and the country
The Hill ^ | 02/22/2022 | Kevin R. Brock

Posted on 02/22/2022 9:07:05 AM PST by Az Joe

John Durham has been a special prosecutor for almost a year and a half — not a long time, but plenty of time for a drumbeat to begin that he was showing little progress against his orders to examine the origins of the debunked Trump-Russia collusion narrative that convulsed a presidency. His few indictments so far have been directed against peripheral players, feeding a fear among Donald Trump’s supporters that elites higher up the stack are going to get away with their chicanery.

It is truly worth the 2 to 3 minutes required to read the linked article at The Hill.
Of course, James Comey had Hillary & Co. dead to rights, when he did that atrocious “catch-and-release” thing.
I can’t even imagine how angry Trump must have become by all these underhanded machinations against him. Oh, BTW, the underhandedness was REALLY against the USA and the Republic itself.
A lot of us are still watching and hoping, but we are also jaded.

I think you make a good point. Although the attorney-client privilege protects communications between a lawyer and client, it is not absolute. If it can be shown the lawyer and client were engaged in a crime, then none of their communications, oral or written, are protected and all would be fair game for use by the prosecutor.

Many here and elsewhere were trying to politically murder Durham because the inquiry was not being expedited based on their own personal expectations and schedules.

That’s for advising that

Very good coming from the Hill....learned things I didn’t know

Freepers rarely read past headline though you already know that

The most fun was looking at the comments meltdown. Where lefties rule

They are so funny to watch squirm and parse

If he concealed the clients on whose behalf he evidently was acting, as Durham charges, he would have fraudulently deprived the FBI of facts that would have helped the bureau decide whether it was worth investing taxpayer dollars on an investigation. Knowing Sussmann’s true affiliations was clearly information the FBI deserved to know.

Therein lies the problem. "Deserved to know" is not relevant. The FBI did not want to know on the record. Sussman wasn't just working for Hillary, he was providing cover for Obama's FBI.

Love it. The author points out that those who constantly claim Durham isn’t really investigating, are doing the Democrats bidding, and low and behold all the usual suspects whom are really just Democrats in disguise are here immediately.

There were at 2 dozen here who did the same exact thing, repeatedly, over and over and over.

Well, that certainly does look what's happening.

Yup. That’s what happens when you combine over reach and sloppy work. Thinking Durham may be looking at a combo of RICO and public corruption charges.

I’m saying two messages on that site. The first is that, yes, Durham is on to something and he’s proven that he is and he’s getting to the bottom of it. And some big players could finally go down.

But the second message I got from it was it Jesse watters way overstated what he actually was saying. That’s a different subject but it is even more troubling for me. If Fox is really that bad at getting to the bottom of what’s actually said by Durham, it kind of makes them look a little bit like cnn. The sad part is it falls into the arena of misinformation. And when misinformation is piled on top of real information, it makes it all stink.

One thing big law firms do have is very detailed billing records. Durham has been subpoenaing the lawyers billing records to establish who did what to whom - and for how much and who paid who. Once he has that info, he has cause he needs to go further and pierce the attorney-client privilege veil. This could be much bigger than Watergate if he can document a conspiracy between big law firms, the DOJ/FBI, FISA Court, Intelligence agencies, the media, and politicians in office and Hillary Clinton/DNC

If the players state flat out a goal of “creating a narrative,” and that narrative is based on false, incriminating evidence,” how does that not indicate intent?
