‘Tell me lies, tell me sweet little lies.” Sounds like I’m humming Fleetwood Mac, but I’m really just capturing the signal top officials at the FBI seemed to be sending to Clinton campaign lawyer Michael Sussmann.
Sussmann claimed that he was not representing any client when he brought the FBI Internet data that he insisted showed that Donald Trump had established a communications back channel with the Kremlin, through servers at Russia’s Alfa Bank.
In reality, Sussmann was representing the presidential campaign of Hillary Clinton. He wanted an “October surprise” to torpedo Trump’s chances, and what better way than to make it look like the FBI was investigating the candidate?
It’s clear from text messages and testimony that Sussmann lied about not having any ulterior motives, and simply acting as a concerned citizen.
But his defense presents a problem — both to the FBI’s reputation and Special Counsel John Durham’s prosecution against the lawyer. Sussmann argues that no matter what he said, FBI officials knew he was aligned with the Clintons.
Lock Up some of them too !!! NOT ABOVE THE LAW either !!! Goes for them & Congress !!!!!
