I’m beginning to SEE what YOU are doing here and I love it! Three cheers for TechNo-Fog!
I haven’t gotten far into your work and this gem is absolutely making connections in my mind:
“The Special Counsel’s statement reminds us of this letter we discussed from Rodney Joffe’s attorney to the attorneys for Michael Sussmann, stating the Yota phone-related allegations percolated “through various branches of the government and around the private sector after that date, in various forms.”
Let’s just say, I’ll gladly accept an entire pot of Peruvian Coffee.

Thank you, TechnoFog! you are always the #1 in legal matters! I have some questions:
1) isn't James Baker now the Deputy General Counsel at Twitter? (that's quite interesting considering the recent Takeover of Twitter by Elon Musk)
2) in another article you wrote that Marc Elias was questioned under oath by the Durham Grand Jury (if I'm not wrong) - do you know when that happened? - the date is important, since Marc Elias resigned from Perkins Coie in Aug 2021: one month before Sussmann indictment
3) IIRC, about 24 persons have been interviewed by the Grand Jury. Do you know their names? Or the names of some of them?
4) Has Jake Sullivan been interviewed under oath by the Grand Jury? If yes, do you know when?
I don't think the Trump campaign had to invent one single thing. All they had to do was to report the truth, or at least their _perspective_ on the truth. And President Trump has this penchant for being proven correct long after the fact.
Trump met with Putin and Xi to finalize their plans to destroy The Swamp. Obama and Killary are 💯% phuqed.
Putin was involved in UraniumOne, Skolkovo, Ukrainian money laundering, helping Ukraine provide rockets to the Deep State for mercenary ICBMs launched against the US & Japan and 'sheltering' Snowden.
Make them pay. Make them pay lawyers. Make them interrupt their lives. Get everything on the record for the future to see. Make the process the punishment.
No matter what comes of the Durham coverup the Clinton Crime Family will continue to be a malevolent and powerful force in American politics. There is virtually no one in DC with any power who wants Hillary & Co. to be politically neutralized and that particularly includes McConnell and McCarthy.
The MSM and Tech Totalitarians will make sure that the vast sea of ignorant drones who vote in this country will continue to wallow in self-imposed ignorance. If it were otherwise Creepy Joe would have an approval rating of around 10% and Hunter would be in a Federal prison.
They never seem to learn that the TRUTH never rests. Its as true now as when the Nazis tried to hide their crimes by burying their victims only to have the earth heave and move and reveal their genocide. Same thing with the NKVD in the Katyn Forest massacre.
The bottom line?
The US Gruberment has been making life difficult since Woodrow Wilson and has only accelerated it, not reduced it.
So, Christopher Steele is such an explosive witness with such damning evidence that the gov't won't subpoena him because he won't answer their calls? This is all ticky-tack nothing that Durham is churning out to carry water for someone - I assume pressure from Senators to go through motions and keep Trump happy.
The Yota phone and Alfa bank stories both had evidence and deserved to be investigated - whoever brought the evidence forward. Some will claim that the CIA debunked the Alfa story - but Durham reserves judgment and I'm guessing the same people wouldn't trust the CIA about anything else.
According to Durham's tortured explanation, they didn't believe in it. Durham seems to a priori believe that this was all a hit operation - therefore no one believed it was ever true and everyone had bad intentions.
But that's not what the defendants are saying -
"The Alfa Bank results “have been validated and are reproducible. The findings of the researchers were true then and remain true today; reports that these findings were innocuous or a hoax are simply wrong,” said Jody Westby and Mark Rasch, lawyers for David Dagon, a Georgia Institute of Technology data scientist and one of the researchers whom the indictment discussed but did not name.
Steven A. Tyrrell, a lawyer for Rodney Joffe, an internet entrepreneur and another of the four data experts, said his client had a duty to share the information with the F.B.I. and that the indictment “gratuitously presents an incomplete and misleading picture” of his role."
Yeah, they knew the only way they'd stay out of trouble was to hide behind HRC's skirt, hoping that her seeming ability to deflect prosecution would work its magic yet once again. Didn't work, fellas. John Durham is on your case.
Found the Astroturfer. You know the DNC and HRC campaign did the Russia hoax, everybody already knows that. You're not changing anyone's mind by glossing over reality.
He'll be more useful in the Danchenko trial and indictments of the conspiracy between Sussmann-HFA-PerkinsCoie-FusionGPS-Steele. Why blow your load early for an easy prosecution when the meat that Durham is going for is the conspiracy/fraud indictments that are forthcoming.
Judge said it was hearsay too far from any fact to show the original charge of the lie that Sussmann told the FBI which to this point is all he is being charged with.
That’s a load. It wasn’t hearsay, it’s the fruit of the work she commissioned from Fusion and the Sussman tech team. That Tweet is the whole REASON for the work and the lie. Clinton and Sullivan are being protected. As usual.
I’m very impressed with the way Durham is building this case. It started out deceptively simple with Klinesmith. Now more seriously with Sussman. The panic of the other players is coming into focus as Durham carefully draws them in and explains to the judge why all the evidence he’s requesting to bring in is germane to the case. The judge hasn’t denied him once. All the flailing around of parties that weren’t charged in the case but suddenly want to hide their roles by blocking evidence is blood in the water. If Durham proceeds the way he’s started out, he can blow this case wide open. Let us pray!
TechnoFog, at last I found you! I kept seeing and hearing references to your work thru other sources but I knew I wanted access to your actual product. Much better than having it parsed by a third party. Now all I have to do is drag my tiny Far West Texas bank into this century so I can get a paid subscription. Apparently I have to steer clear of their lunch hours, coffee breaks and weekends!
Nothing but deflection from Gene the Astroturfer. Give it a rest, Bush plays so little role in the modern RNC and virtually nothing with the start of the Russia hoax.
Odd how Hillarys' tweet is likely to be barred as evidence. Hopefully this is not some indication that she is to be excluded from the investigation. Hopefully it is just some legal technicality regarding the irrelevance of that post. Sussmann and others might be getting prepped to be thrown under that very big bus. Hopefully Durham is not just the "whitewash" guy brought in for a clean up in the meat dept.
It's likely the judge will rule in favor of piercing privilege for the conspiratorial communique, which will be more than enough evidence for showing the conspiracy. The tweet is unnecessary and was considered hearsay.
Techno-Fog!

Stop the spam
Thank you! Our son is in law school in Knoxville and I just sent him this article. Looking for you on Truth Social?
Oops... you were one of my first to follow on TS 🇺🇸
The Hildabeast seems destined to NEVER be held accountable.

Too bad the FBI knows Danchenko made up most of the crap in Hillary's dossier.
Trump met with Putin and Xi to finalize their plans to destroy The Swamp. Obama and Killary are 💯% phuqed.
Putin was involved in UraniumOne, Skolkovo, Ukrainian money laundering, helping Ukraine provide rockets to the Deep State for mercenary ICBMs launched against the US & Japan and 'sheltering' Snowden.
Putin has receipts. That's why they hate him.
Hmmm … funny that’s what Hillary did
excellent work as usual...
Thanks, I read this on my show giving links. If you ever want to go on a podcast I'd love to host you for a show.
Once again thanks for you work. I will share on my pages.
They are soooooooooo done :)
I can only hope....
Even if they get off in court, the light has been shone upon them. They are done.
Done? They are heroes to the left, especially if they beat Durham.
Make them pay. Make them pay lawyers. Make them interrupt their lives. Get everything on the record for the future to see. Make the process the punishment.
You make a very good point. Who is responsible for the legal fees incurred, especially if their defense rests on there being no client engagement?
The Clinton campaign no doubt has lots of cash left over for just this purpose. It will not cost Killary a cent.
So what?
Their credibility is shot. The stain this leaves, regardless of outcome, is indelible for all associated.
Think Arthur Andersen........

Those who helped compile (create?!) the Alfa Bank "evidence" didn't even believe in it. 🤷♂️

Yes, but that doesn't mean it shouldn't have been investigated.
Found the Astroturfer. You know the DNC and HRC campaign did the Russia hoax, everybody already knows that. You're not changing anyone's mind by glossing over reality.
Quite. I never understand why losers like Nicky think they can persuade the informed readers here and elsewhere.

Just another coffin nail in the future of the Fibbies. As an organization, they're liars much more than prosecutors of justice.
Why would the Hillary Alfa Bank tweet be excluded from evidence?
Judge said it was hearsay too far from any fact to show the original charge of the lie that Sussmann told the FBI which to this point is all he is being charged with.
Thank you.
That’s a load. It wasn’t hearsay, it’s the fruit of the work she commissioned from Fusion and the Sussman tech team. That Tweet is the whole REASON for the work and the lie. Clinton and Sullivan are being protected. As usual.
You are correct. But, that was the judge's ruling on that. There were other rulings that were good for the SC not so good for Sussmann.
I’m very impressed with the way Durham is building this case. It started out deceptively simple with Klinesmith. Now more seriously with Sussman. The panic of the other players is coming into focus as Durham carefully draws them in and explains to the judge why all the evidence he’s requesting to bring in is germane to the case.

It appears Hillary Clinton has dodged a bullet again. (figuratively speaking)
Not for long, I hope.
Sadly, Durham is protecting the bureaucrats - dozens upon dozens were involved in the coup and Durham wants only Clinton and a few of her cronies.
Dude, give the Astroturfing up.
The DNC did the Russia hoax. RNC bought into it too, but it was started by the HRC campaign.
Oh geez, Gene, everybody knows that liberal Maddow is MSNBC's Russia collusion conspiracy queen. You're really giving yourself away here.
Nothing but deflection from Gene the Astroturfer. Give it a rest, Bush plays so little role in the modern RNC and virtually nothing with the start of the Russia hoax.
