communications channel between the Trump Organization + a Russia-based bank. Sussmann, who had previously represented the DNC in connection with a cyber hack, falsely stated to the GC that he was not bringing these allegations to the FBI on behalf of any client.”

Earlier on Thursday, special counsel John Durham told the Justice Department that he will be seeking an indictment against the Clinton-connected lawyer for the charge of making a false statement to the F.B.I., as the New York Times reported.
“Any indictment of the lawyer — Michael Sussmann, a former federal prosecutor and now a partner at the Perkins Coie law firm, and who represented the Democratic National Committee on issues related to Russia’s 2016 hacking of its servers — is likely to attract significant political attention,” the Times noted.

The FBI opened an investigation of Alfa Bank based on the info that Michael Sussmann gave to James Baker, even though Sussmann knew the info was bogus. As Durham notes, the FBI wasted its time and resources chasing that false lead pic.twitter.com/r5zcURtwKO

As much as Durham tries to portray the FBI as a victim of Sussmann, the Comey FBI knew by Feb 2017 that Sussmann’s info was bogus. Comey didn’t reveal that though. It didn’t come out until 2 years later, well after the collusion conspiracy had completely infected the Resistance
