    Default Turkeys — Bunnies — & Santa Claus

    The cybersecurity lawyer indicted this week by a grand jury in special counsel John Durham's investigation could end up being the "fall guy" for Hillary Clinton's 2016 campaign, warned a top House Republican.

    Rep. Devin Nunes , the ranking member on the House Intelligence Committee, told Newsmax on Thursday there is evidence of a broad Russia collusion conspiracy — allegations the congressman's team investigated and referred to the Justice Department . But, he cautioned the Clintons "have a long history of their lawyers and agents disappearing."

    Michael Sussmann, a former attorney from Perkins Coie, is accused of falsely telling the top FBI lawyer he had no clients when he was representing a technology executive and the Clinton campaign during a September 2016 meeting on possible links between former President Donald Trump and Russia. Sussmann pleaded not guilty to a charge of lying to the FBI on Friday, with lawyers insisting he never said he didn't have clients and was representing only the technology executive at the meeting five years ago.

    DURHAM NOT EXPECTED TO BRING CHARGES TIED TO INTEL ASSESSMENT ON RUSSIAN ELECTION INTERFERENCE: REPORT

    The Perkins Coie law firm has already been tied to the Russia matter. Robby Mook, Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign manager, said in 2017 he authorized Marc Elias — another attorney who, up until recently, worked for Perkins Coie — to hire an outside firm to dig up dirt on Trump’s connections with Russia in 2016. This led to British ex-spy Christopher Steele's discredited anti-Trump dossier .

    Nunes contended evidence in the "slam dunk" indictment, which is 27 pages long, has solid evidence showing Sussmann was integral in helping the Clinton team develop the narrative there was a secret backchannel between Russia’s Alfa Bank and the Trump Organization. The FBI investigated the claims and could not find evidence to support them but not before the media reported on the allegations and the Clinton campaign promoted the them leading up to the 2016 presidential contest.

    Beyond the "circumstantial evidence" the California Republican said he already had, Nunes added, "We now have emails and communications, and clearly, Durham's done interviews in this."

    The indictment alleges Elias, who served as general counsel for the Clinton campaign, exchanged emails with the “campaign manager, communications director, and foreign policy advisor" about the Russian bank allegations, among other claims.


    "I would hope that this is only the first of several other indictments," said Nunes, adding there are government officials he still wants to be held accountable. But he stressed the new indictment does not look good for members of the Clinton campaign and others involved, some of whom have made their way into the Biden administration, such as White House national security adviser Jake Sullivan.

    Nunes said Durham is "circling the wagons" and would "be surprised" if Sussmann did not reach a plea agreement.

    "There was a conspiracy here," Nunes said. "You've heard me talk about this for many, many years. The Clinton campaign conspired with really bad agents and bad actors within the FBI and other locations. So, this guy you've got lying to the FBI. We know people conspired to do this. Conspiracy is a major charge, and it can be very, very broad. That's what I would like to see — was this the only guy that did it? Is he going to be the fall guy for the Clinton campaign? We've seen that in history, remember? We've seen people in history be the fall guy for the Clintons."

    Durham was a U.S. attorney appointed by former Attorney General William Barr to investigate the origins and conduct of the Trump-Russia investigation and received special counsel status last year to continue his work into the Biden administration.

    Durham's endeavor has long been criticized by Democrats and legal observers who claim the inquiry is meant to undercut Robert Mueller's special counsel investigation into alleged ties between the Trump 2016 campaign and Russia. Still, Trump and his allies have championed it as a means to root out corrupt officials to settle political scores.

    Mueller's team was unable to find a criminal conspiracy between the Trump's victorious campaign and Russia. However, his report described 10 instances of possible obstruction of justice that Democrats seized on as a road map to impeachment. The investigation also led to several convictions and guilty pleas from Trump's associates over charges unrelated to collusion with Russia.

    In the more than two years he has conducted his inquiry, Durham and his team have not brought any charges related to conspiracy. So far, Durham has obtained only a single guilty plea from former FBI lawyer Kevin Clinesmith, who admitted to altering an email about a Trump campaign aide under government surveillance.

    Recent reports suggest the prosecutor is considering criminal prosecutions of lower-level FBI agents and others as he investigates information provided to the FBI in 2016 that spurred on the Trump-Russia investigation.


    'Clinton indictment' blows Russia collusion conspiracy wide open, top GOP investigator says

    To conservatives, Chaitin’s article reads like Easter, Thanksgiving, and Christmas rolled into one holiday. The sad truth is: All of the turkeys in the world, along with all of the bunny rabbits and Santa Claus can erase the bottom line regardless of Durham’s indictments:


    Finally, the scum in government will never punish one of their own for treason.

    Know this if you know nothing else. Covering up Hillary Clinton’s murders in Benghazi opened the floodgate for that filthy piece of garbage in the White House and all of his scum bags. Regardless of the crimes they commit collectively with every law, every policy, and every executive order they legislate they are too big to punish.

    Hillary might pay for Clinton Foundation larceny. She might even pay for using a private e-mail server, but she is not going to pay for treason. Treason is the one crime she committed that is too big to punish, nor will any of her agents be charged. The federal government and the media will never besmirch one their own in a devastating trial. Make no mistake about it. In their eyes Hillary Clinton is a goddess of light and goodness on par with the Virgin Mary to Roman Catholics.

    The basic test of freedom is perhaps less in what we are free to do than in what we are free not to do. It is the freedom to refrain, withdraw and abstain which makes a totalitarian regime impossible. Eric Hoffer
