Here are some text messages that FBI's Scott Hellman wrote his unit chief Nate Batty within 24h of getting the fake Alfa data from Sussmann.

It was completely obvious from day one that the whole thing was a totally idiotic hoax.
Yet FBI leadership opened a full investigation. pic.twitter.com/yCFmF1Tbjn

This is why I kind of give Horowitz a pass. He has limited powers if an agency or special counsel under his purview decide to obstruct his investigation.VegasAg86 said:aggiehawg said:

All while trying to pin obstruction on Trump.
I love irony.
Weissman might be a bigger PoS than Mueller.
2) September 7, 2016, the CIA referred to Strzok and Comey the investigative matter involving a purported plan by Hillary concerning blaming Trump for Russian hackers “as a means of distracting the public from her use of a private email server.”

September 20- Agent Hellman concludes that the narrative not only does not hold water, but in text messages states that the DNS pings mysteriously started shortly before the start date used by someone supposedly investigating Trump-Russia connections. See this post: https://t.co/nOJ53JDpRt

Why didn’t the FBI 7th Floor launch an investigation of Hillary as the possible sponsor of a hoax? And why did the 7th Floor instead open a full counter-Intel investigation by Chicago FO into the Alfa Bank narrative being spun by Sussmann, Joffe and friends?

That room will be full of very wealthy, mostly old, people. I sincerely doubt anyone "puts his feet to the fire", but it would be great if you could make it. Report if you do. Tell your friend to take MARTA to the North Springs Station. It'll give you more time to delay, and your friend will be SO GLAD to see you after the experience! Congrats on the family property. Highlands is awesome.SPF250 said:
I just learned about a July 11th CE lecture: Lessons Learned From A Mueller Investigation Insider, to be given by none other Andrew Weissmann. It's near some family property in the mountains of NC. Would love to go but it's on a Monday morning. I'm in Tennessee through Sunday and need to pick up a fellow Ag at Hartsfield Tuesday mid day. Don't know if the logistics will work. Would like to ask, "In light of testimony in the Sussmann trial, how do you reconcile the Mueller investigation's (ie your) failure to identify that the Steele and Alfa reports were manufactured by the Clinton campaign?" Could be fun.
Correct. I kind of assumed the latter was to be taken for granted. I wonder when they invite Tucker Carlson or Mark Levin to speak. Not holding my breath.SPF250 said:

At least one juror is probably claiming that 'well, sure, the USB drives, but he didn't expense the taxi ride to the FBI to Clinton campaign.'SwigAg11 said:
Would we have any idea what their thoughts are if they want to see the tax receipt?
Either checking the date or who it was ultimately billed to. Now, because of the retainer that Perkins kept with the Hillary campaign and DNC, a "bill" would be more of an invoice that shows fees and expenses as applied to the existing retainer and then if it was exceeded, a bill for the overage.SwigAg11 said:

If he was going to see Baker out of the kindness of his own PERSONAL heart, why did he bill his employer?SwigAg11 said:

Judge Cooper gave the correct answer: they have to be unanimous on each and every separate element to convict, but only on the overall result to acquit.

Jurors can have different reasons for reasonable doubt, or different jurors can think different elements weren’t proved. /2
This question is likely a bad sign for the prosecutors. /4

So what the Sussmann defense has been able to show is the government has big trouble trying to prove the materiality of the false statement, which is an essential element of it, because the FBI really wasn't fooled and because they went to great lengths to conceal the fact that they had accepted information from a partizan political source.

Sussmann will make a statement in person soon, we are told.
— Charlie Savage (@charlie_savage) May 31, 2022
Team Durham will issue a statement but not give a presser, I was told earlier by DOJ. /14
So in other words, the statement was not material, i.e. it did not influence the FBIs decision to investigate, because the FBI was already corrupt and partisan and would have investigated anyway.BMX Bandit said:

So, lying to the FBI is no big deal if they know that you're lying and the lie you told doesn't change anything, or rather gives them cover to continue a sham investigation?Quote:
