Special Counsel John Durham is revealing new smoking-gun evidence, a text message that shows a Clinton campaign lawyer lied to the FBI while putting the courts on notice he is prepared to show the effort to smear Donald Trump with now-disproven Russia collusion allegations was a “conspiracy.”
According to Durham, documents show Democratic cybersecurity lawyer Michael Sussmann lied to the FBI general counsel, telling the bureau that he was not working for any client when he was really working for Hillary Clinton’s campaign.
Last September, Sussmann was indicted for allegedly concealing from FBI general counsel James Baker his clients – Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign and “Tech Executive-1,” known as former Neustar exec Rodney Joffe – when he promoted debunked reports of an Alfa Bank backchannel that linked the Trump Organization to Russia.
Sussmann was charged with lying in the September 2021 indictment when he claimed to provide the allegations to the FBI on behalf of no client when in fact he was doing so on behalf of Joffe and the Clinton campaign. According to Sussmann’s lawyers, there is no evidence that Sussmann lied to Baker last year.
Durham rejected the idea.
“The defendant’s false statement to the FBI General Counsel was plainly material because it misled the General Counsel about, among other things, the critical fact that the defendant was disseminating highly explosive allegations about a then-Presidential candidate on behalf of two specific clients, one of which was the opposing Presidential campaign,” Durham pointed out last month. “The defendant’s efforts to mislead the FBI in this manner during the height of a Presidential election season plainly could have influenced the FBI’s decision-making in any number of ways.”Durham rejected the idea.
