The month of May won’t be a merry one for Michael Sussmann, one of Hillary Clinton’s top lawyers at her favorite election law firm Perkins Coie, who is facing a criminal charge of lying to the FBI when he passed information to the Bureau’s general counsel, James Baker. Sussman stated explicitly that he was acting as a “good citizen,” not as a lawyer for Trump’s election opponents.
Wink, wink. Nudge, nudge.
The tip was false. It described a secret, traitorous back-channel connection between candidate Trump and the Kremlin and included some “white papers” as “proof.” But that deceit is not part of this criminal charge. Nor is Sussmann’s follow-up meeting with the CIA, where he also claimed to be a “good citizen” not representing anyone, and passed on the same false information, amplifying it with still more data about a secret Russian phone that was always near Trump. The CIA quickly determined the internet data was bogus and perhaps created by Hillary’s anti-Trump group. It also recognized that crucial data had been omitted to create a false impression and perhaps that some of the data had been made up or spoofed.
Sussmann is not being charged with that, at least not yet. Nor is he being charged with participating in a broader criminal conspiracy. Some filings by Special Counsel John Durham suggest he may be preparing such charges against Clinton’s larger network of hoaxers, but he hasn’t leveled those charges yet. He’s going after Sussmann first.
Although a single count of lying to the FBI might seem like a relatively minor charge, Durham is pursuing it for three important reasons. First, a false statement to the FBI is a felony in its own right, or, rather, it is if the statement “materially affected” a federal investigation. Second, Durham seems to have rock-solid evidence...

It’s happening
The wheels of justice grind slowly but fine.
“At this point, what difference does it make?”
I hope a lot I hope Satan’s Prom Queen dies in prison.
Is there anywhere I can read this without the paywall?

Wheels move slowly. Oops, statutes of limitation have run out. Most rats will escape justice.
Durham might be squeezing Sussman to flip.
LOL!!!

Durham Springs the Trap on Democrats’ Russia Lie

No DC jury/judge is going to punish anyone with a (D) after their name.
It's difficult to squeeze harder than the threat of Arkancide
Durham is tightening the screws trying to get Sussman to turn and become state’s evidence. It might happen.
Until I see people actually going to prison Im not believing anything.
It would be just deserts if Sussmann flips on Hillary. He’s scum, but she’s worse.
Notice though, that these stories don't come from the New York Times, which is still covering up as best they can using their power to ignore.
Not in a conspiracy that is still active and operating.
Sussmann will be Arkancided before he ever gives up the Clintons.
Everybody knows what happened to Seth Rich.
