BREAKING: Sussmann Attorneys Make Big Move in Durham Case

By Nick Arama | Feb 17, 2022 

The Clinton folks must be freaking out, if this latest action is any indication. Attorneys for Clinton campaign lawyer Michael Sussmann have just filed a motion to dismiss the case against him for making a false statement to the FBI. They are claiming that the case is “extraordinary prosecutorial overreach,” and that the indictment “fails to state an offense.”  Translation? Too much information is coming out connected to the Clinton campaign in the filings — and that can’t happen.........Nice try, guys; this move isn’t likely to fly — but it’s clear this is making a lot of people nervous.............To Read More....

• Durham Response to Sussmann Motion to Strike Squelches the Ridiculous Arguments - Nick Arama -  On Thursday, Special Counsel John Durham responded to a motion filed by former Clinton campaign lawyer Michael Sussmann’s attorneys to strike the factual background part of his Feb. 11 filing about conflicts in the case............Durham declared that there was “no basis” to strike any part of his filing, noting that the factual background was “central to proving” Sussmann’s “alleged criminal conduct.” But Durham also noted that some of that was essential to laying out the potential conflicts that were the point of his Feb. 11 filing..........It’s funny that first, the Sussman lawyers claimed that Durham was saying too much and prejudicing their client, then they flipped on a dime and moved to an argument that he hadn’t said enough. Neither argument is likely to fly............

• 46 Senators Call on Garland to Support Durham Probe of ‘Fraudulent Abuse of the FBI’s Investigative Powers’ Craig Bannister- On Wednesday, a group of 46 senators signed and published a letter to Attorney General Merrick Garland seeking assurances that the Department of Justice (DOJ) will provide Special Counsel John Durham with the independence and resources he needs to fully complete his investigation into the origins of the FBI’s seemingly baseless Russian Collusion investigation.....
• Top House Republican: ‘We are Going After’ FBI & Clinton for Spying on Trump Based on ‘Explosive’ Durham Memo - House Intel Committee Member Rep. Mike Rogers (R-OH) appeared on Fox News to address the Durham findings that the Clinton campaign’s lawyer Michael Sussmann had paid a tech firm to effectively ‘spy’ on the Trump campaign and while Donald Trump was in the White House.......
