Clinton campaign tries to hide memos from Durham’s upcoming trial

JustTheNews: Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign and its former top officials are intervening in Special Counsel John Durham’s investigation, seeking to block the release of memos about its Russia research on Donald Trump on grounds that it is covered by attorney-client privilege.

The requests were filed late Tuesday by the campaign, its former chairman John Podesta, its former campaign manager Robby Mook and its former law firm Perkins Coie, coming about a month before the start of former campaign lawyer Michael Sussmann’s trial on a charge of lying to the FBI.

“Hillary for America respectfully moves this honorable court to intervene as an interested non party to assert privilege claims over documents and information that the government seeks to compel,” the campaign wrote in its motion.

The motion is designed to block evidence of the campaign’s work with former MI6 agent Christopher Steele and the firm Fusion GPS to dig up dirt on Trump alleging Russia collusion, some of which was later shared with the FBI and CIS by Sussmann.

Durham alleges some of the Trump dirt the campaign shared with the government was false and that Sussmann lied to conceal the fact he approached the FBI on behalf of the campaign and a tech executive linked to the campaign. Sussmann has pleaded innocent.

  1. Exhibit #5832 why Trump should run again and win.

    Simply shoving a second term as far up Hillary’s fat, pasty-white dimpled bleeding hemorrhoid encrusted hairy ass would be justice served and allow me to stay drunk for three days straight in that November celebration!

  2. If Trump finally puts Hitlery in jail it will be fitting but it won’t be justice.
    That ugly, nasty witch has lived too many of her days a free person. She should’ve been scrubbing prison toilets with her face since the 1990’s. Right after Bubba’s willy was cut off and fed to him in a fried rice dish for selling us out to the commie Chinks.

  3. Oh that’s not suspicious…
    If there are emails about Trump and Russia and Hitlery had nothing to do with it those emails would only be discussions about what was happening. Like talking about news stories.
    So why the refusal?
    Hmmmmmmm….

  4. Hillary in jail, the funniest thing I read all morning, never gonna happen in a million years. Trump forever triggered because she really beat him, so he stole the election.

  5. Kabuki.
    HRC will be long dead before this goes to a jury – and everyone involved knows it.

    “See? There is “justice” in America! And the “law” works!”
    Keep the serfs dazed and confused.
