Mainstream news outlets, Democratic operatives, and virtually the entirety of the Democratic party attempted to delegitimize Trump by endlessly championing the Trump-Russian collusion theory. Accusations of Russian collusion began during the presidential campaign and dogged Trump’s entire presidency.
It has become increasingly clear that the cries of Russian collusion were nothing more than fabrications manufactured by Trump’s political opponent, Hilary Clinton, to destroy Trump’s candidacy and then presidency.
Bombshell news implicating Clinton’s campaign appeared in a court filing by Special Counsel John Durham. Durham’s filing revealed Clinton’s campaign did not just promote the Trump-Russia collusion narrative, they were also the source of the bogus claims which consumed and divided our nation for four years.
The motion filed last week relates to Michael Sussmann, a lawyer for Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign. Sussmann was a partner at Perkins Coie- the firm that commissioned the now-debunked Steele Dossier on behalf of the Democratic National Committee and Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign.
Reminder- In September 2021 Durham indicted Sussmann for lying to the FBI. Two months before the 2016 election, Sussmann approached the FBI with “evidence” of covert communications between the Trump organization and a Kremlin-linked bank, Alfa Bank.
Not only did the evidence prove bogus, Sussmann represented to the FBI that his only motivation for offering the information was to be a good citizen, denying he was doing work “for any client”. However, Sussmann’s billing records prove otherwise. Durham found that Sussmann “repeatedly billed the Clinton Campaign for his work on the Russian Bank-1 allegations.”
Sussman’s indictment indicates that in July 2016 he represented “Tech-Executive-1”, identified as Rodney Joffe. According to Durham, Joffe’s employer, tech company Neustar had access to White House computer database servers through a “sensitive arrangement.”
The filing explains that attempting to link Trump with Russia, Sussmann teamed up with cyber researchers, including Joffe, who exploited his “access to nonpublic and/or proprietary internet data.” Joffe monitored internet traffic from Trump’s White House, Trump Tower, and Trump’s Central Park West apartment building. Disturbingly, the monitoring-aka spying- continued into Trump’s presidency. Durham does not explain how Sussmann and Joffe accessed the servers to Trump tower or Trump’s apartment building.
Durham states that the “goal” was to mine internet data to establish “an inference” and “narrative” tying Trump to Russia that would “please certain ‘VIP’s’, referring to individuals at [Perkins Coie] and the Clinton campaign.”
It is important to note that Joffe was not a disinterested party. An email uncovered by Durham indicated he was expecting to receive a top cyber security position from Clinton if she won the presidency. Joffe also appeared to hold a bias against Trump, as indicated in the same email where he stated, “I definitely would not take the job if Trump won”.
In February 2017, with cherry-picked incomplete data, inappropriately accessed by Joffe’s team, Sussmann met with officials from the CIA. Once again, Sussmann attempted to convince federal officials that Trump had nefarious communications with Russians. Again an investigation found the claims were bogus.
No doubt Sussmann and his team of cyber researchers knew there was no merit to their accusations. However, the objective was not to ascertain the truth but to ignite a federal investigation. Once underway, an investigation provided the false allegations with the appearance of credibility, allowing a solicitous media to report the leaked details of the claims, amplifying the Russian collusion narrative.
Incredibly, many of Clinton’s campaign affiliates promoted the campaign’s manufactured Russian collusion claims as if the information came from independent sources.
Clinton’s then-senior policy advisor, Jake Sullivan, now Biden’s National Security Advisor, released a statement days before the 2016 election promoting the bogus story tying the Trump organization to the Russian-based bank.
Hillary Clinton also tweeted about these false claims.
Let’s not forget Hillary Clinton’s campaign, through the Perkins Coie law firm, also funded the now-debunked Steele Dossier. Clinton surrogates then peddled the dossier to the highest levels of the FBI, who used it as the primary evidence in their FISA application to spy on Trump campaign aide Carter Page.
Trump’s first weeks in office began under a cloud after the leak to the media that then-FBI director James Comey briefed the new president on the dossier. Leaking the meeting between Trump and Comey gave credibility to the dossier, allowing the press to publish the entire dossier, amplifying the Trump-Russia narrative, which eventually led to the years-long Special Counsel investigation.
Not surprisingly, the mainstream media has been either silent or has defended Hillary Clinton against the damning evidence presented by Durham. Accurate reporting would require the media to admit complicity in promoting the Russian collusion hoax. It would also require the condemnation of Clinton and an admittance that Trump was right- which would never happen. Unfortunately, supporting the Democratic agenda always trumps reporting the truth for many so-called journalists.
Without a doubt, if Donald Trump or any Republican spied upon and manufactured dirt on their political opponent and then funneled it to the highest levels of our intelligence agencies, spurring years-long investigations, the reaction from the press would be very different.
The evidence is clear. Hillary Clinton’s campaign is at the center of what may be the biggest scandal in American history.
Kash Patel, the former chief investigator for the House Intelligence Committee-
..”[Durham] definitely showed that the Hillary Clinton campaign directly funded and ordered its lawyers at Perkins Coie to orchestrate a criminal enterprise to fabricate a connection between President Trump and Russia”.
The remaining questions include – How involved was Hillary Clinton, and how widespread was the plot to bring down Trump?
Fortunately, it appears that Durham’s probe is not slowing down. According to Fox News, the investigation has recently “accelerated” and more people are “cooperating”. Sources also told Fox that former Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe met with Durham multiple times and informed him evidence supported the indictments of “multiple people”.
Durham was appointed almost three years ago to investigate the origins of the Russian collusion hoax. Hopefully, justice is finally on the horizon.
