Hawg, there's a book review about "The Steal" by Mark Bowden and Mathew Teague. It's about the election of 2020. I didn't care for it, but wonder if either of these guys did the research the Aggies on this thread have done. I always kind of liked Bowden, but he seemed poorly prepared here. It's on cspan2 at 8:00

There's an April 2020 article in the Washington Examiner that's worth another read in light of recent filings by Durham regarding he direction his case against Sussmann is going. The article picks up testimony given in the UK by Christopher Steele about how he first learned of Alfa Bank -Trump Org connection. Hint: It didn't come from Danchenko or any of Steele's source network. Rather, Steele learned of it at the July 29, 2016, meeting at Perkins Coie, attended by Sussmann, Elias, Steele, Simpson, Fritsch (from Fusion GPS), and perhaps Joffe.

Steele testified that Sussmann was the source, and that after the meeting, Simpson tasked Steele with doing research on Alfa Bank's ties to Putin and to write up the Trump-Alfa story as part of the dossier. Which Steele did, although he testified that Sussmann carried the narrative to the press. Steele pitched it to Kavelac at the State Dept.

Here's the article

https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/christopher-steele-claims-clinton-lawyer-fed-him-debunked-claim-about-russian-collusion-in-2016

So how does this fit in with Durham? Well, Durham told us that Elias has been before the grand jury, and based on what happened and who was present at the July 29 meeting, Elias is central to tying the scheme and all its participants together. Elias was there at the origin. So he becomes perhaps the central witness in not only the false statement charge against Sussmann , but also in any subsequent conspiracy case.

Some people got some explaining to do! What will Elias say about that meeting? That's the million dollar question. Undoubtedly he will say they were planning opposition research, which is not illegal. But what about the part that a frame-up hoax would be presented to the FBI and Dept of State? That's a crime. And it's what happened- largely because a federal investigation into the made up oppo research added gravitas to the narrative. It's possible Elias will likely testify that he didn't know it was made up, and/or he didn't realize false evidence would be presented to the FBI. But his ability to put all the major players in the same room at the same time is critical for establishing a conspiracy. Curious as heck to know what other cards Durham is holding onto.




RE: July 29, yes, Joffe was there. See Laura Seago's deposition.

Reason why big time lawyers make the best but also the worst conspirators. Billing records. Not protected by attorney client privilege and lawyers in those kind of firms bill someone whenever they even take a s***.

Anyone have an idea(s) what will take place next? Court filings/motions, more indictments, plea bargains???

ETA - confessions, suicides?

Confessions? Only if immunity or a plea deal are attached.

Suicides? If that is the only way to save their families? Likely.

If Sussman is any indication, the remaining characters are going to put up a fight - except for probably the GT researchers.

Doesn't Durham still need to respond to the motion to dismiss and the judge needs to rule on the motion to strike and motion to dismiss?

For all practical purposes, judge rules against the motion to strike, he'll rule against the MTD.

Damn, don't know how you all keep up. With this thread, election thread, Ukraine potential war, COVID threads, Canadian freedom thread(s), my head is spinning.

Oh, and thank everyone for the distribution of information.

Thank goodness for the Sunday funnies.

Sorry for the derail.

From Cates…I can't read it because I'm not a subscriber, but it seems like some dueling has been going on behind closed doors between Durham and Clinton proxies.

At this point, I can't think of anything the Left hasn't done.

They've stolen, likely bribed, falsified, corrupted, probably murdered, assaulted, raped (antifa and blm) and are wanting to go full Trudeau. Thank God our constitution is in writing and has been adjudicated for 240 years.

It may be the only thing that saves us!

Taking this in combination with the Brian Cates post, it seems to my layman'seye that Durham's filings prove that Sussman's counsel from Latham Watkins is actually working for Hillary. They (Latham Watkins leadership) knew about the "epic court fight" to which Brian Cates referred

However, it seems that the specific attorneys they have working for Sussman weren't apprised of this. Latham Watkins marched their own attorneys into Durham's buzz saw. His filings definitely let Sussman know that he has been betrayed and let his attorneys know that the partners at Latham Watkins screwed them and their careers.

Would Latham Watkins actually do that to their own attorneys working for Sussman or were they in on it i.e. knowingly breached their responsibility to their client?

I bet Liz is there to make sure the heat stays away from her family as much as possible. Voting record lines up with being one of this squishy Republicans that will fold like a cheap table at a feather's touch.

I hope they primary her and the dam breaks on any and everyone involved on both sides of the aisle.

Glad you are here. Welcome to our corner of the party. We've, and by we I mean all of those that have contributed far more than my occasional comment/question, have been chewing on this mess for a long time. Glad you are getting the word out!

Take some time to go completely through these 1300+ pages of well documented research of this entire ordeal that has been compiled of the last 5 years. It would do your research well.

Not your fault at all but for those of us not on twitter, we get blocked almost immediately so can't read threads or more than a tweet or two before it shuts down.

So screen shots would help.

If you're using Chrome as your browser, you can right click on a clickable link and select the open in incognito window option. Incognito window does not set cookies so you won't run into issues Ms. Hawg was describing.

Btw, I'm as old as you and I know the lingo so age is not an excuse!

Sorry for the tech derail.
