Welcome to the Swamp, Mr. Durham | National Review
Damn, if just half of this shit is true it explains a lot of the circling of the wagons going on with the traitorous wretches on both "sides".
Roy Cohn, the notorious rogue lawyer and Donald Trump confidant, famously said, “Don’t tell me what the law is, tell me who the judge is.” And the judge in Special Counsel John Durham’s prosecution of Michael Sussmann will have to decide a point of false-statements law: materiality.
Sussmann, of course, is the former Perkins Coie lawyer who represented the Democratic National Committee (DNC), among other notable political clients. The case against him stems from his efforts to peddle to government investigative agencies the political slander that Donald Trump was a clandestine agent of Vladimir Putin’s Russian regime — at bottom, he is alleged to have concealed that the main client on whose behalf he labored in this endeavor was the Hillary Clinton campaign.
The crescendo toward which Durham appears to be building is a final report that will show the Trump–Russia “collusion” innuendo that gripped the country for three years was essentially concocted by Mrs. Clinton and her minions. Though some comparatively minor crimes may have been committed along the way, such a partisan scheme would not necessarily be a crime in and of itself. It would, however, be one of the dirtiest, swampiest political tricks of all time.

- For the special counsel, the prosecution of Democratic lawyer Michael Sussmann in a Washington, D.C., courtroom will not be a home game.
