    Sussmann Acquitted



    The single count was a my-word-against-his charge that Sussmann had told a Federal Investigator, in a one-on-one meeting, unrecorded, and with no contemporaneous notes, that he was only there on his own, and not representing a client, when bringing forth some information about the mysterious Alfa Bank server in Trump tower. That's it. That's all they brought to trial. And the jury didn't buy it.

    The irony is that the prosecutors are saying that the FBI shouldn't be used for political purposes, but by bringing forth such a threadbare case, that was clearly what they were doing--throwing a sop to Trump and his base about the whole Russia thing. Because they think (inaccurately) that Trump was unfairly wronged in all of this and they demand a hide on the wall. Well, it won't be Sussmann's.

    Well with any luck the whole era will soon disappear over the horizon in the rear-view mirror, and we'll look back on it as a bad time that we got through.

    Hardly surprising. Like I said earlier, Obama Judge allowed
    Clinton cohorts to remain in Jury pool. Durhams people
    couldn't strike all of them so outcome was obvious.

      Yes agree that it was hardly surprising, given the paucity of evidence. So ends with a fizzle the run of Special Prosecutor Durham, who found a lot less to work with than his biggest fans hoped for.

      I'll say again: better for everyone the sooner those years are gone in the rear view mirror.

        That still doesn't clear Hillary of conspiracy to remove a sitting president! O'Bamma, Biden and Hillary met in the WH days before Trump's inaugaration and started to plot then! She, IMHO, is a traitor and should be in prison!

          Cheer up! You can always do another Benghazi go around. Not enough time on Hillary’s emails also. Can you spell SLAP?

            See that's just plain nuts there.

            You're all bent out of shape about something Hillary might have done.

            But all of the real stuff that went down with Eastman, January 6, that doesn't move your needle at all.

            The word I'll use is....bonkers.

              First of all, it should have been a change of venue to start with. This trial was set up to fail for the prosecution (clinton donors & obama judge)
