Text messages confirm Clinton lawyer misled FBI: ‘I’m coming on my own’

Special Counsel John Durham filed new evidence Monday night against Hillary Clinton’s 2016 campaign lawyer Michael Sussmann, who has been charged with making false statements to the FBI in 2016 regarding the Trump organization and a tie to Russia’s Alfa Bank.

In a meeting with the FBI, Sussmann allegedly did not disclose that Clinton was his client. “Sussmann allegedly falsely claimed that he was not at the meeting on behalf of any client” writes National Review. The newest evidence includes a text message which supports that. The evening before the meeting, Sussman sent a text to an FBI official saying: “I’m coming on my own- not on behalf of a client or company – want to help the bureau.”

Durham’s Monday filing also includes references to the dossier compiled by former British spy Christopher Steele. “A number of the allegations included in the Steele dossier, which was used by the FBI to obtain surveillance warrants against former Trump campaign aide Carter Page, have since been discredited” adds National Review.

National Review reports on the intricacies of the Steele/Sussmann/Clinton web:

Steele was a subcontractor for Fusion GPS, a research firm that Sussmann’s former law firm, Perkins Coie, had hired to look into potential links between the Trump campaign and Russia.

Marc Elias, a campaign law specialist and one of Sussmann’s partners at Perkins Coie, was representing the Clinton campaign and hired Fusion GPS.

Though Sussmann’s indictment does not mention the Steele dossier, Durham’s new filing refers to the dossier and Steele, including a meeting with Sussmann that Steele has said included the alleged suspicions data scientists had about odd internet data they thought might indicate a secret channel between the Trump Organization and Alfa Bank.

Sussmann’s lawyers asked the judge to block prosecutors from making arguments and introducing evidence related to the dossier.

    The FBI is NOT of the hook on this, as anyone with two brain cells would’ve asked Michael Sussmann how he came into possession of this information.

    There is NO TRUTH in any and all of the involvements of the “””clintons”””!
    As the years go by, the truths are coming out because people see the changes coming and are scared of what will happen.
    The LUCIFER BRIGADE of the Left is in full attack mode. But the TRUTH is the only answer to their lies!

RFK Jr. announces lifelong Democrat, advocate of left-leaning causes, CA native as running mate

Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. announced Tuesday that attorney and tech entrepreneur Nicole Shanahan will be his vice presidential running mate in the upcoming election. The Independent candidate announced his choice for the 38-year-old Oakland, California native by praising her insight into “how Big Tech uses AI to manipulate the public,” her athletic ability, and willingness to be a “partner” in a number of policy areas, including on securing the border.

Fox News writes that Shanahan is a philanthropist with a long history of donating to Democrat and left-leaning causes, including supporting President Biden in his 2020 election bid before switching to Kennedy when he launched his own run for the Democrat nomination last year.

She is the founder and president of Bia-Echo Foundation, a private firm that describes its mission as focused on “new frontiers in reproductive longevity & equality, criminal justice reform and a healthy & livable planet.”

Fox News reports Shanahan initially dropped her support for Kennedy after he decided to run as an independent, but later got behind him again by giving $4 million to the super PAC that boosted his candidacy with a John F. Kennedy-themed campaign ad that ran during the Super Bowl in February.

Shanahan also previously donated to Democrat presidential candidates Marianne Williamson and Pete Buttigieg during the 2020 presidential race, and threw more than $150,000 behind progressive Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascon’s 2020 election bid.

Shanahan, a life-long Democrat, told the crowd that she was leaving the party.

“The Democratic Party is supposed to be the party of compassion. It is supposed to be the party of free speech, and most importantly, the party of the middle class and the American dream,” Shanahan said.

“While I know many Democrats still abide by those values…I do believe they’ve lost their way in their leadership,” she continued.

And she urged “disillusioned” Democrats and Republicans to support Kennedy’s independent White House bid.
