FBI leadership was 'fired up' about alleged secret channel between Trump-Russian bank: Sussmann trial

One agent said opening the Trump-Russia investigation was 'not an option—we must do it'

WASHINGTON, DC – FBI leadership, including then-Director James Comey, was "fired up" about the alleged covert communications channel between the Trump Organization and Russia’s Alfa Bank in the days after Michael Sussmann brought the allegations to the bureau, according to testimony and documents revealed in the trial.

Sussmann, on Sept. 19, 2016, set up a meeting with then-FBI General Counsel James Baker where he brought two thumb drives of data and white papers alleging the Trump Organization was using a secret back channel to communicate with Kremlin-linked Alfa Bank in the weeks leading up to the presidential election.

I could add more but these are the top 5.

Good list. I'd add the NSA to that list.

It better.
Think about it if not

Very little would make me happier than to see that spawn of Satan wearing orange with her hands chained behind her back. But it ain't gonna happen. She is above the law.

John Durham's Case Against Michael Sussmann Just Got Tougher

In a predictable but nevertheless damaging blow to the prosecution, the judge in the Michael Sussmann trial ruled Thursday that the government may not argue that Sussmann’s text message to the FBI’s then-general counsel constitutes the false statement charged against him. Rather, prosecutors must rely on their evidence that Sussmann made the false statement the following day, when he met with the general counsel, James Baker, at the latter’s FBI office.

The judge was just waiting for the right moment. With the school shooting and the high gas prices, this story will be buried and most people will forget about the trial.

An AOC donor would have to be one of the dumbest humans to walk this earth.........wouldn't want them deciding my fate.

I dont think the average American is smart enough to determine anyone's fate.

I too am not surprised that a competent jury found that the government had not established it's case.

Well? Surely you didn't forget about it.

It means that Trump is a sad panda.

 

[davethevol]

Well, considering it was reported there was at least one biased juror, there’s no way he was getting a conviction. Ridiculous.

The number of conflicts of interests associated with this trial is higher than Biden's inflation rate.
