Baker says his impression was that Sussmann was there as a good citizen bringing the FBI important information. Prosecutor using this testimony to match with text Baker received from Sussmann saying “coming on my own — not behalf of a client or company — want to help the bureau”

...So one of the jurors will be allowed to vote on whether to send the father of her daughter's teammate to prison. So we is joining three Clinton donors on the jury, including one who could only promise to “strive for impartiality as best I can.” https://t.co/BCSKLsl98T

I read the article. Woman claims she was unaware that the defendant's daughter was on same team as her own. Says that aren't friends, and the team is big. Claims she does not know the defendant or his wife and that she can remain impartial.

Who knows

Witness list. If Sussmann's daughter goes to the same school, chances that other witnesses kids do too.

DC federal judiciary could not pass a first year criminal procedure, nor civil procedure law class. Nor any ethics class, assuming their law schools even had a required ethics class.

Mine did in the very early 80s.

NEW: Durham will get a crack at cross-examining, under oath, Strzok's righthand man in FBI's counterintel investigation of Trump--Jonathan Moffa--who's being called by Sussmann as character witness. Moffa knows where bodies buried: dossier, FISAs, ICA. Brian Auten reported to him

— Paul Sperry (@PaulSperry30) May 20, 2022

Crossfire Hurricane team comprised of 3 units--(1)Analytical (2) Operational (3) Legal--but it all started w the analysts (Moffa,Auten). THEY picked Trump targets.THEY "vetted" the dossier.THEY processed the CHS recordings,NSLs, FISA collections.THEY wrote reports.THEY fed agents

Oh ***** So when did he lie? Now or to Congress?

2/2 allowing Durham to start week with strong evidence and Sussmann unable to really counter (since any re-cross is limited).

Baker is Durham's star witness, and Sussmann's legal team made sure the jury knew it--the first major unforced error for the defense. @FDRLST https://t.co/AyZX0R1pQJ

Hillary Clinton's former campaign manager Robby Mook told a court on Friday that she signed off on sharing debunked allegations linking Donald Trump and the Kremlin-backed Alfa Bank with the media in the run-up to the 2016 election.

Mook told the trial of Michael Sussman, the first to be indicted by Special Counsel John Durham in his Russia origins probe, that he was first briefed about Alfa Bank by campaign general counsel Marc Elias.

He said he also discussed with then senior advisor Jake Sullivan - now the White House National Security advisor - and campaign chairman John Podesta about whether to share the information with a reporter.

'I discussed it with Hillary as well,' Mook told the court. He also admitted the campaign wasn't 'totally confident in the legitimacy of the data', but was hoping a reporter would follow it up and determine if it was 'accurate' or 'substantive'

'I don't remember the substance of the conversation, but notionally, the discussion was, hey, we have this and we want to share it with a reporter,' Mook said.

They decided to share it with the reporter after the meeting, he testified.

'I recall it being a member of our press staff,' Mook said . 'We authorized a staff member to share it with the media.'

The court was also shown the infamous October 31, 2016, from Hillary saying: 'Computer scientists have apparently uncovered a covert server linking the Trump Organization to a Russian-based bank.'

She included a statement from Jake Sullivan titled 'exposing Trump's Secret Line of Communication to Russia'.
