This was obvious yrs ago, but Durham’s indictment proves your own campaign was paying the lawyer who fed this Trump/Russia server lie to the media & your top staffers (Mook, Elias, & Sullivan) were in on it weeks before you tweeted this election interference lie out to millions https://t.co/PJShfwdWK6 pic.twitter.com/bQYXmjMt3q

Quick question, notwithstanding the accountability of Clinton and her campaign lackeys under the law, and assuming Durham proves culpability, would Trump be able to suit either Clinton, or her campaign?
I don't recall it happening before, but there's always a first.

Look at the date of her tweet. It was from 5 years ago.

here is a long game and a short game going on in special counsel John Durham's indictment of Democratic Party lawyer Michael Sussmann on a false-statements count.
The short of it is this: A false statement was allegedly made by Sussmann to the FBI's then-general counsel, James Baker, on September 19, 2016. In federal law, the false-statement crime has a five-year statute of limitations, meaning it had to be charged by this Sunday (September 19, 2021). Consequently, even if Durham would probably have preferred to wait until his full investigation was concluded before filing indictments, by delaying beyond Sunday, he would have lost what appears to be an eminently provable felony charge. If he was going to indict Sussmann on this conduct, it was now or never.
Now, more critically, the long game.
It is unusual for a one-count false-statement charge, which can be alleged in a paragraph, to be presented as a 27-page speaking indictment. But Durham wrote a highly detailed account of the facts and circumstances surrounding the false-statements charge. It is significant in that it tells us far more about his investigation.
Not a defense of Durham by any means but getting all of those electronic records, especially involving attorneys and clients can be a laborious process.whatthehey78 said:
Personally, I just don't get the "snails pace" of Durham's investigation and the Justice System et al. At this rate, most (if not all) parties will be long deceased before any convictions occur. Legal system needs a stern, swift kick in the a$$!

Kind of depends on the situation. For instance, you have some information but need more from the former employee of a corporate defendant. That corporate defendant no longer controls that employee and doesn't have to produce them upon a simple notice for a deposition duces tecum. (The duces tecum means bring the documents with you.) You would have to subpoena the former employee directly. That's in a civil setting.fasthorse05 said:
Hawg, do attorneys, more specifically special counsel types, often play the waiting game in order to obtain new, and or, additional information?
I'm asking because it seems everyone associated with the Dem party doesn't have to respond to any subpoenas on the first try, and sometimes not at all. I know Durham has the subpoena power, but it seems to be an extraordinary long time.
BTW, congrats on last weekend.
You're welcome.whatthehey78 said:

@FOOL_NELSON has picked up on a likely connection between an allegation in the Sussmann indictment and two footnotes in the Horowitz report: https://t.co/i5UNZ7Rag5

To put a cap on this, many have rightly made to point that the FBI could not have been genuinely fooled that Sussmann’s client, the campaign or the DNC, were not involved behind the scenes in putting this narrative together. That suggests his lie that he wasn’t representing

The Horowitz footnote describing how McCabe instructed the team not to talk to the confidential source anymore has always been a mystery, at least to me. Is Durham about to connect the Alfa Bank narrative conspiracy together with an FBI CH conspiracy , tied up with a neat ribbon

The judge on Sussmann’s case was a parter at Covington & Burling LLP and served on the Obama/Biden transition team as an advisor on Justice Department issues. Seems totally fair.
