Lots of back-and-forth, speculation, understatement, overstatement and flat-out ignoring what John Durham said in his recent filing regarding the pending felony charges against Michael Sussman, one of Hillary Clinton's top campaign lawyers. Here is what Durham specifically alleged, along with my commentary as to what it means and why it matters:
This is also known as hacking. The information was non-public so accessing the information was illegal.
Those doing the hacking were doing so to gather information illegally ("non-public information") to please the vile witch, Hillary Clinton, or at a minimum top officials with her campaign - and we are supposed to believe the genius, the all-knowing Hillary knew nothing about this. Yeah, Hillary Einstein suddenly becomes Sgt. Schultz. You bet.
The spying by Clinton's lawyers was of the campaign, a doctor's office, and the OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT. But hey, no big deal, right?
The spying arose out of a deal the spies had with the Dept. of National Security, a deal known to former Secy of State Hillary Clinton, to provide internet services to the Office of the President. At this point, any person not enraged is a scumbag liberal, traitor, or both.
The spying yielded information that the spies turned over to the FBI, claiming it showed questionable contact between the Trump campaign and Presidency and Russia. Turns out those claims were demonstrable lies, foisted on the FBI for no reason other than to smear Trump.
So the spies made two claims showing questionable contact between the Trump campaign and Presidency, neither of which was even true. First, the spies claimed contact between Trump campaign/Presidency and a Russian bank, Alfa Bank, when in fact the supposed "contact" was nothing more than spam involving a server domain used by Trump business.
In short, the U.S.-based server was not actually a Trump server, but an outside domain the Trump Organization used to send out marketing emails. (To suggest it is a Trump server, then, is akin to saying that Gmail is your server, given your email address.) (If you have Gmail.)
Second, the spies claimed that unknown individuals were using very rare Russian-made cell phones in the latter part of 2016, suggesting untoward communication. Who was involved and what was said? The spies could not say, except they could say - they claimed - that such contact was rare and thereby suspicious. That was a blatant lie, a claim they knew was false. The DNS actually sourced more than 3,000,000 instances of Russian cell phone usage, some of it dating back to 2014 - the Obama administration.
So the Alfa Bank claim was a pure lie and the "Russian cell phone" claim another lie.
Sussman was getting the information from the spies who were using access obtained through DNS contracts and information that a former Secy of State would have known and had, then lied about what was found, then lied about his own status by claiming he was just another brave, unaffiliated whistleblower.
Lie, lie, lie, lie. Sussman and his co-defendants were not whistleblowers; they were whistlemakers, lying every step of the way about the tune they were playing.
