Kari Donovan| Special Counsel John Durham, who was appointed to investigate the origins of the massive scheme to defraud the American people, and defame Donald J. Trump in the ‘Russiagate’ hoax, has taken on a focus of radical- lifelong government employee Hillary R. Clinton, who has never seen a negative consequence to any of her usurpations of our American Republic.
Clinton has a privilege that far exceeds almost any other human on Earth, with the type of criminal activity that average Americans would never dream of trying to get away with.
Yet here we are. Durham’s case is finally going in front of a judge- and Hillary’s bizarre public tweets are being called into scrutiny for their deceitful content that ties her back to a possible conspiracy, and lo-and-behold, a Democrat Judge (of course) is protecting her from all consequences that may have come from those tweets.
Here is what is going on:
Tweets sent by former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton that accused then-presidential candidate -Donald Trump of colluding with Russia during the 2016 presidential election cannot be admitted as evidence in court, a left-leaning federal judge has decided.
This week, Judge Christopher Cooper denied Durham’s request to enter them as evidence in the coming trial of Clinton’s former campaign attorney Michael Sussmann who is accused of lying to the FBI, The Washington Examiner reported.
In the tweet, Clinton was reposting an article from Slate titled:
Was a Trump Server Communicating With Russia?
This spring, a group of computer scientists set out to determine whether hackers were interfering with the Trump campaign. They found something they weren’t expecting.

So she was just “retweeting” the news-right?
“Donald Trump has a secret server,” she said in a tweet. “It was set up to communicate privately with a Putin-tied Russian bank.”

“Computer scientists have apparently uncovered a covert server linking the Trump Organization to a Russian-based bank,” she said in another tweet, which picked up the Slate story and added more content to it, according to Jake Sullivan’s point of view.
But poor Hillary she was just retweeting everyone else- right?

The statement Clinton was reposting was written then, in 2016 to help Hillary as the Democratic nominee for President.
At the time Sullivan was Clinton’s campaign advisor. Currently, Sullivan is President Joe Biden’s national security adviser, Jake Sullivan.
“This could be the most direct link yet between Donald Trump and Moscow,” Sullivan reported. “This secret hotline may be the key to unlocking the mystery of Trump’s ties to Russia.”
“We can only assume that federal authorities will now explore this direct connection between Trump and Russia,” Sullivan wrote..
But Democrat Judge Cooper, who was appointed by former President Obama, said he would dismiss the tweets as “as hearsay” and that “it’s likely duplicative of other evidence.”
Durham argued that the tweets should be allowed as evidence because Clinton had presented them as “truth” and because they “show the existence of the defendant’s attorney-client relationship with the Clinton Campaign, which is directly relevant to the false statement charge.”
However, Sussman’s attorneys argued against that.
“The tweet, which was posted on October 31, 2016, does not reveal anything about Mr. Sussmann’s state of mind over a month earlier, when he purportedly made the alleged false statement,” it said.
“There is a real danger that if the tweet were admitted, the jury would believe that Hillary Clinton herself was part of the Special Counsel’s uncharged conspiracy and that she had a direct interest or involvement in Mr. Sussmann’s efforts.
“Drawing the candidate herself into this matter in this way would be unfair to Mr. Sussmann,” they said.
Durham revealed in court filings that staffers at the political research firm at the center of the so-called “Russiagate” scandal sent hundreds of emails to journalists containing unsubstantiated allegations against and claims about then-GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump.
The purpose of leaking the claims was to generate negative news coverage about the Republican candidate, the filing stated.
In a late Monday court filing, Durham said the wave of emails undermines claims by the Clinton campaign that Fusion GPS’s research on behalf of her presidential effort ought to remain confidential as part of attorney-client privilege.
According to the Washington Times, the stories peddled to media included:
- A Wall Street Journal article about a Trump adviser meeting with a former KGB official close to Russian President Vladimir Putin.
- A Washington Post story about a Trump campaign adviser investing in Russia.
- New York Times and Reuters articles about the FBI investigating a secret communications setup between Mr. Trump and Russia’s Alfa Bank.
GOP Sen. Ron Johnson of Wisconsin said the special counsel is exposing the Clinton campaign’s “political dirty tricks.”
“We’ve known for quite some time what happened here. And what the Durham indictments are just proving is how not only complicit but the Clinton campaign did this. They literally did this,” he told the Times.
“What the Clinton campaign did in terms of political dirty tricks, we are still putting up with the repercussions. Would Vladimir Putin have invaded Ukraine if Trump was still in office? That’s an interesting question,” he added.
