People are starting to come to grips with the importance of Hillary campaign manager Robbie Mook’s fingering of Hillary—that she was the one who authorized the Alfa Bank Hoax. There’s a lot to be said, and some people are already saying it. One is Jonathan Turley, and another is Devin Nunes. Nunes gave a very lucid interview to Fox News that happens to work very well with Turley’s equally lucid article at The Hill. If you read Turley first, then listen to Nunes’ explanation of the significance of it all, you’ll get a very good overview of why this revelation will end up being very important—whether or not Sussmann is convicted. Unfortunately, the Fox interview is on Rumble, which I can’t embed here. When the time comes I’ll link to CTH.
"Is it the case that Charles Dolan, a Hillary Clinton friend and supporter, was coincidentally feeding false information to Christopher Steele’s primary sub source?" No evidence that Dolan was feeding "false information" to Danchenko. Better to say that Dolan provided innocuous information to Danchenko e.g. that he had a tour of Ritz Carlton with hotel manager and female staff member (re planned October YPO convention.) Danchenko appropriate the tour with himself as lead and falsely said that he talked to these hotel staff about Trump 2013 visit. Similarly with later innocuous information from Dolan about a Russian diplomat returning to Russia after finishing his term. Danchenko transformed this into a narrative about dossie.
Thanks. That may be the type of testimony that could stick in public consciousness--not the specifics so much as the overall narrative. And that seems to be what Durham is managing to get out. I see that some of this is finally being picked up in the MSM.
Agreed. One act alone - using her private server to transact state dept business and then destroying evidence - would have got plebs like us a 20 stretch.
I'll trot out my theory of the Great Persuader or Great Negotiator only to note the way in which this development could fit neatly into the persuasion war concept. Trump, playing some 5-dimensional long game or simply hewing to his gut instincts announces a fact and waits and waits and waits for his opponents to finally utter that same fact which they have denied vehemently up to that point, and voila, the needle is moved the window has shifted, we all find ourselves just a little more persuaded (or a lot) of Trump's version of events. Case in point: Elon.
There is some strategy behind Mook fingering Hillary.
Scenarios:
1. Mook played it safe, and gave up Hillary, which he believes will be treated as Harry Reid’s admittance on lying about Romney’s taxes “he lost, didn’t he”. No consequences.
2. Sussman is threatening to open up a can of worms by mentioning, he who shall not be named, as a way to apply pressure. Basically stating he will not be hung out to dry / scapegoated.
3. Defensive approved action by Hillary to threaten the fbi and deep state, if any more digging is allowed, she will act like Samson and bring down the entire temple.
Don't forget the elephant in the room: Biden's disappearance. He can't last out much longer and there is a massive civil war within the Dem party to replace him. It wouldn't surprise me at all if Obama and his psychos activate a bit of anti-HRC psyops when she appears to be gathering steam for another Potus re-run. If this finally bangs a nail into her Potus ambitions, there will have been at least one good takeway from this farce.
If I recall correctly from just a few weeks ago, by Mook responding on behalf of H for A, to the request for "in camera" review he put himself and H for A in play. So I assume he was a defense subject for the trial vs. Prosecutors. (I can't remember exactly).
When in Spain the rain falls mainly on the plain or in Mook's case hideaway...
Don't want to be a downer but the public at large probably has no idea about any of this. I think CNN might have mentioned it in passing, but as usual, the MSM ignores it totally.
I heard that Mook was contemplating suicide...

The US cannot be said to operate under the rule of law until both Clintons are in jail.
That's a good start ...

Yes. Funny thing. Trump the Impatient, who cannot keep his fingers off the Twitter, also plays the Long Game.
"Turley referred to Durham’s style as 'either painfully methodical or positively glacial as a prosecutor'.”
Revenge is a dish best served cold.
Revenge is a dish best served within 50 years of the original crime.

Hmmnn ... I really like number three: may Hillary be Samsung-like in bringing down the whole temple of Baal, and also be held to account as well.

Yes. That's part of what Turley remarks upon--that Mook was called by the defense.
I wonder how "suicidal" Mook feels?
He already said it, out loud, in court, under oath. If they disappear him, that makes his testimony a SHOUT.

Actually there's more. Don Surber has a list. Not NYT and WaPo, but ...
