The trial for former Clinton campaign lawyer Michael Sussmann got underway this week, the prosecution of the Washington attorney with ties to the Democratic Party being part of Special Counsel John Durham’s investigation of the investigators who delivered the Trump-Russian collusion hoax that dominated the nation for better than two years.
Sussmann faces a single count of making false statements to the FBI in September 2016 about potential ties between a Kremlin-tied bank and a Trump Organization computer server, after he claimed that he wasn’t “acting on behalf of any client” when he handed over purported evidence of the secret backchannel — no link was ever found.
If jury selection is any indication, Durham’s team may will have their hands full convicting Sussman, as the New York Post reported that as many as “three Hillary Clinton donors” were among the prospective jurors, including one woman who donated to U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y.
