Sussmann is a nobody. The point of this trial was not to get a conviction. The point was to get it on the record that Sussmann DIDN'T lie to the FBI. the FBI now has no excuses for what it did. Now when Durham goes after McCabe/Strozk/Paige/Comey they can't use the defense that they were acting on false information provided to them by Sussman.
This case was an auto-L for Durham once it was announced it was going to be heard by a DC jury.
Hudson Butler
You think a career prosecutor like Durham didn't know that? You think he was so retarded he didn't object to having Clinton donors on the jury just because? It's almost like getting a conviction was never the objective huh?
Brayden Hernandez
Bullshit. Sussman was the first case to bring the house of cards down. Unfortunately that house is tig welded together. Sussman should've been an easy conviction. Hillary Clinton's lawyer not acting on Hillary Clinton's behalf that has information that should dramatically help Hillary Clinton's campaign against Donald Trump. Nobody covered it. The system is a joke. We're fucked.
Joseph Roberts
Except that's not how it works. No one proved that Sussmann didn't lie, they failed to prove that he did lie. Besides it wouldn't matter anyway, if he was found guilty would that exonerate the FBI? Of course not, both Sussmann and the FBI could be lying at the same time.

i know you're trolling but the fact that there are goy out there that actually believe this shit infuriates me
>The shit's chess not checkers! Dude, I love Training Day, too...but repeating that line in a real-life context is the definition of MK-Ultra successfully having conditioned you.
I thought it was to get Sussman to admit he was working for Clinton. He admitted this and the evidence proves it. All the jury did was decide it wasn't a big deal.
The lie between Sussman and the FBI is irrelevant.. It's the lie Clinton told that she had nothing to do with it. That's on record now as being false.
William Rodriguez
If Sussmann is convicted. The entire FBI can blame it all on him an walk away scott free.
This ruling just eliminated their only possible excuse.
Christian Lopez
Tha's also part of it yes. but the main goal was to eliminate the possibility of using Sussmann as a scapegoat
Anthony Collins
>they failed to prove that he did lie Except for when he admitted under oath that he lied. There's that part.
Jaxon Ross
This is some top-tier cope.
>Now when Durham goes after McCabe/Strozk/Paige/Comey
Lol. A DC/northern Virginia jury will acquit all of them even faster than they acquitted Sussmann. I'm betting that charges won't even be brought, and the investigation will be quietly concluded sometime this fall, with no real results.
i thought what happened was jury nullification. someone on the jury said basically "at this point what difference does it make" and hung the jury am i wrong? i don't care enough to look this up because at this point what difference does it make?
Robert Parker
No, everyone knew he worked for Clinton, that was never an argument. I'm not here to defend Clinton, but lying itself isn't criminal. Now if she had lied under oath she could get hit with a process crime like Flynn or Page but its little more than political theater. Sussmann was guilty and the jury let him off. The FBI was guilty and Durham let the statue of limitations run out in March of this year, then quickly released evidence of their crimes days afterward. Obvious that Durham's scope was never to go after the institution and to instead focus Clinton campaign, and he failed. Danchenko is the only case remaining and he is a literal nobody middleman with the same jury pool as Sussmann. Jury found him not guilty not sure what else to say. Shits fucked.
Asher Bell
A not guilty doesnt prove he did not lie it just means that the jury found reasonable doubt. The best thing out of this case was entering into evidence that this was a directed smear campaign and the fbi brass was helping. Its just that in dc democrats cant get convicted.
Brandon Foster
I guarantee you those cases won't be tried in DC
Justin White
So trump did collude and this sham charge against some random lawyer isn't proof of a vast conspiracy against trump...yet again.
Jury nullification was to be expected when you have known Hillary donors on the jury. Either Durham is a complete fucking retard incapable of seeing that obvious conflict of interest or he intentionally didn't do anything about it because conviction wasn't the real objective
Like I said, you are coping hard. Take this for example:
>If Sussmann is convicted. The entire FBI can blame it all on him an walk away scott free.
>This ruling just eliminated their only possible excuse.
This implies that the FBI is on the defensive, and is afraid of its people being investigated/prosecuted. It isn't. Because the FBI and everyone else in DC knows that the fix is in.
Your problem is that you began with your conclusion ('surely somehow justice will be done!!!') and have to use increasingly convoluted reasoning to support this conclusion. That's not the way to look at political issues. You should start with a blank slate, and let the actual evidence guide your conclusions. In this case, it's rigged, and 'the swamp' has won.
>Your problem is that you began with your conclusion ('surely somehow justice will be done!!!') Your problem is that you began with your conclusion ('it's rigged'). Buy a mirror sometime.
Gavin Gutierrez
I am guided by the evidence. I see no evidence of 'the deep state' facing any sort of consequences for its actions. Do you? If so, where, and how? Look at this chart from 2018. It's not a bad chart, but none of those people will be punished for their crimes. That's what the evidence so far strongly suggests.
>Why yes Hillary did pay me to lie to the FBI >You're free to go
Is Sussman a dead man walking?
Brandon Rivera
There is only so much Durham's team could do to filter out jurors, you have a limited amount of challenges beyond for cause. The city is like 90% liberal.
Henry Harris
Bump.
Ethan Nelson
2 more weeks? 2 more weeks.
Henry Jones
So we just have to wait 2 more week?!
Samuel Lewis
Just take life one day at a time. Every day is one day closer to the inevitable downfall of the betrayers
We used to call that 360ing the bathroom. I did it once at an exon next to a McDonald's and my phone slipped out of my hoodie and into the toilet. I ended up using a plastic bag to get it out and then just never used it again, but I never 360d a bathroom again after that incident.
Dominic Phillips
It took a decade of undercover work and legal wrangling in the 1970s and 1980s to take down the Mafia, and in the end, the total convictions they got was...11. 11 people went to prison, though I think one died before he could start his sentence. And that was for an organized crime empire that, while formidable, was FAR smaller than the deep state.
If they are to be held accountable, it will take years and years of work, wrangling, and cultural shift. The "two weeks" meme is nothing more than an illustration that attention spans of modern people are so fucked that we will forget the deep state is even a thing by the time the other shoes begin to drop.
Gabriel Harris
COPE you stupid Qtard. All those other names you mentioned will beat any Durham rap easier than sussman did.
Angel Cooper
I see go after the scapegoats first to bolster your case against larger criminals. They would have no one else to turn on but each other
