Clinton Lawyer Walks Free
Hillary Clinton’s campaign lawyer, Michael Sussmann, is a free man today. A Washington, D.C., jury found him not guilty on the charge of making false statements to the FBI. I’m not at all surprised.
Sussmann was the most high-profile defendant charged so far in Special Counsel John Durham’s on-going investigation of the Deep State’s attempted coup against President Donald Trump.
Sadly, today’s verdict was not unexpected, and it will only fuel the growing frustration with the apparent “two systems of justice” that seems to prevail in America – one for liberals and one for the rest of us.
The Obama-appointed judge in this case issued numerous rulings that seemed biased against the prosecution. And, as constitutional law professor Jonathan Turley noted, the Washington, D.C. jury was most certainly biased against Durham. Turley recently observed:
“Besides limiting the scope of evidence involving Clinton, the judge allowed three Clinton donors to sit as jurors, along with another juror who is a supporter and donor to liberal firebrand Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. For special prosecutor John Durham, it must seem like the only juror missing is Chelsea Clinton.”
Incredibly, it has also been reported that another juror “was on the same high school sports team as Sussmann's child.” But that’s the problem with holding trials like this in Washington, D.C., a city dominated by liberals.
That said, it’s important to keep in mind that the Durham investigation has already uncovered tremendous “seditious activity,” as former Attorney General Bill Barr put it.
Durham has at least one more trial in the works – that of Igor Danchenko, a key source of Christopher Steele’s infamous dossier. I am pleased to report that trial is being held in Virginia.
