Hillary Factor: Evidence now shows false Russia collusion story began and ended with Clinton | Just The News
On Friday, that dodge ended with a most unlikely witness: her former campaign manager Robby Mook, who was supposed to be a witness helping the defense of her former campaign lawyer Michael Sussmann on a charge of lying to the FBI.
Instead, under cross-examination by Special Counsel John Durham’s team, Mook was forced to concede two extraordinary facts.
First, the Clinton campaign wasn’t “totally confident” about the accuracy of computer data suggesting Donald Trump had a secret communications channel to the Kremlin via Russia’s Alfa Bank.
And second, Hillary Clinton herself personally approved spreading the story to the news media, despite the concerns about its accuracy.
“I discussed it with Hillary as well,” Mook testified. “I don’t remember the substance of the conversation, but notionally, the discussion was, hey, we have this and we want to share it with a reporter,” Mook said.
Prosecutors asked Mook if Clinton approved leaking the story to the media.
“She agreed,” Mook testified.
The testimony confirms what CIA Director John Brennan told President Barack Obama secretly in July 2016 and what the CIA later told the FBI two months later: There was intelligence that Clinton had approved a plan to dirty up Trump with Russia allegations to distract from her own email server scandal.

It might be the bottomlessness of the corruption that I find most distressing. Well, that’s evil for you I guess. Not saying by the way that the Republicans or Trump or whoever is any better. Or that it’s ever been any better. Put not your faith in princes.
