Hillary Factor: Evidence now shows false Russia collusion story began and ended with Clinton

Sussmann trial testimony confirms earlier CIA, FBI evidence that Hillary Clinton approved dirtying up Trump with unproven Russia allegations.

In an era where the hunt for disinformation has become a political obsession, Hillary Clinton has mostly escaped having to answer what role she played in spreading the false Russia collusion narrative that gripped America for nearly three years.

On Friday, that dodge ended with a most unlikely witness: her former campaign manager Robby Mook, who was supposed to be a witness helping the defense of her former campaign lawyer Michael Sussmann on a charge of lying to the FBI.

Instead, under cross-examination by Special Counsel John Durham's team, Mook was forced to concede two extraordinary facts.

First, the Clinton campaign wasn't "totally confident" about the accuracy of computer data suggesting Donald Trump had a secret communications channel to the Kremlin via Russia's Alfa Bank.

And second, Hillary Clinton herself personally approved spreading the story to the news media, despite the concerns about its accuracy.

"I discussed it with Hillary as well," Mook testified. "I don't remember the substance of the conversation, but notionally, the discussion was, hey, we have this and we want to share it with a reporter," Mook said.

Prosecutors asked Mook if Clinton approved leaking the story to the media.

"She agreed," Mook testified.

The testimony confirms what CIA Director John Brennan told President Barack Obama secretly in July 2016 and what the CIA later told the FBI two months later: There was intelligence that Clinton had approved a plan to dirty up Trump with Russia allegations to distract from her own email server scandal.

Kevin Brock, the FBI’s former assistant director for intelligence, called Mook’s revelation a “startling piece of testimony, particularly since he was a defense witness.”

Oh boy, would it not be great if Hillary was in jail and Trump elected for a third time to the presidency? My teenage wet dream come true.

Way back when this' began' it was reported absolutely Hillary herself had begun the Russian collusion story - that continued and is still running today. I find it very interesting that it has taken this long and millions of dollars and time for them to arrive at this conclusion.....and for what?

My guess is that Mook’s “defense” testimony, given before the prosecution was done “to accommodate his vacation plans” happened because the Dems now in control wanted to prevent Hillary from running for President again, or at least soaking up some of the grift. This gives a glimmer of hope that let Durham will be allowed to charge her in the overall Russian Collusion conspiracy, thus deflecting from Brandon’s Hunter woes.

I wholeheartedly believe this. I also believe that Shifforbrains and The Nadler need to have their sacks cut off over this as well.

Hillary is probably wondering: Is it too late for Mook to “Not Kill Himself”?

That is a picture of a woman who still believs she is Royalty - above the law - and you will bow down and serve her while she enjoys making fools of everyone around her underneath her breath.

And yet, we still ended up with a meaningless investigation that shouldn't have happened and cost millions of taxpayer dollars. Yes, Hillary is a corrupt POS, but she is far from the only corrupt POS involved in this criminality.

The modern downfall of America began with that skank and the stolen FBI files.

Hillary Clinton will never stand trial as long as she is living. As evil as she is, she will be lth last person in the World to die. She will probably still be living at the Great White Throne Judgment. Each day Satan pleads with Almighty God not to take her. Thus far he has succeeded.

Nah. Bill told her to do it. Possibly is the same person
who told her to cancel the fireworks. The most qualified
candidate ever to run per Bill never made a decision on her own ever. Only Bill would make a vile decision like that not precious Hillary—Hillary doesn’t do any ordinary gumshoe stuff. If Bill outlasts Hillary the truth will out maybe.
