Far worse than Watergate.
Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign and its former top officials are intervening in Special Counsel John Durham’s investigation, seeking to block the release of memos about its Russia research on Donald Trump on grounds that it is covered by attorney-client privilege.
The requests were filed late Tuesday by the campaign, its former chairman John Podesta, its former campaign manager Robby Mook and its former law firm Perkins Coie, coming about a month before the start of former campaign lawyer Michael Sussmann’s trial on a charge of lying to the FBI.
“Hillary for America respectfully moves this honorable court to intervene as an interested non party to assert privilege claims over documents and information that the government seeks to compel,” the campaign wrote in its motion.
The motion is designed to block evidence of the campaign’s work with former MI6 agent Christopher Steele and the firm Fusion GPS to dig up dirt on Trump alleging Russia collusion, some of which was later shared with the FBI and CIS by Sussmann.
Durham alleges some of the Trump dirt the campaign shared with the government was false and that Sussmann lied to conceal the fact he approached the FBI on behalf of the campaign and a tech executive linked to the campaign. Sussmann has pleaded innocent.
To support its claims that the materials sought by Durham in the case against Sussmann are covered by attorney-client privilege, the campaign offered sworn declarations by Podesta and Mook confirming they used Perkins Coie to handle its opposition research on Trump.
“At all times relevant to the government’s pending motion to compel and continuing through August 2021, Perkins Coie served as general counsel to HFA,” Podesta testified in his declaration. “To my knowledge, Perkins Coie has consistently maintained the confidentiality of documents and information covered by the attorney-client privilege and the attorney-work-product doctrine.”
He also said: “HFA asserts its attorney-client privilege and the attorney-work-product protection with respect to all documents and information under the control of Perkins Coie or any of its consultants, including Fusion GPS. HFA is not waiving any of its privileges.”
Mook gave a similar statement but added one declaration that Podesta did not, denying knowledge that Fusion or Steele had been hired.
“Although I was not aware during the campaign of any contractors that Perkins Coie engaged to assist in it in providing legal services and legal advice regarding this work, I did believe through the campaign that whatever work Perkins Coie performed, either through its own professionals or through any contractors it may have engaged to assist the work was done, for the purpose of providing legal services and legal advice to HFA,” Mook wrote in his declaration.
The same liberal garbage networks that screamed “RUSSIA RUSSIA RUSSIA” on a 24 hour loop, downplayed the investigation and are now ignoring the findings that point directly at Hillary’s illegal hacking.
The FBI’s role in the persecution of President Trump and the corrupt Russian collusion hoax should have resulted in mass firings and indictments. The entire bogus ‘collusion’ fell apart the first month of Trump’s tenure, but they wanted Trump gone by any means. Even if it involved illegal wiretaps, lying to the FISA court, perjury, and pushing a fake dossier.
Hunter Biden’s laptop, which contains an archive of the Biden Family corruption, has been ignored by most of the leftie media because they’re in the business of serving as Dem party operatives.
There’s already been three indictments: Igor Danchenko on Nov. 4, 2021, Kevin Clinesmith in August 2020, and Michael Sussmann in September 2021.
Clinton attorney Marc Elias was directly involved in tapping Fusion GPS to spy on the Donald Trump campaign on behalf of Clinton while a partner at left-wing law firm Perkins Coie. He should be in Durham’s crosshairs as well.
All this shit can be traced back to Hillary’s campaign and Obama’s regime. They went to insane lengths in an attempt to subvert the election. Lawyers for the Clinton campaign paid a technology company to “infiltrate” servers belonging to Trump Tower, and later the White House, in order to establish an “inference” and “narrative” to bring to government agencies linking Donald Trump to Russia.
All of the perps in this conspiracy should be in orange jumpsuits.
