BOOOM! What do we have here? Durham! Conspiracy! Indictments! And Hilldog! What did Obama say while he was in the White House!
A filing from Justice Department special counsel John Durham says Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign paid a technology company to infiltrate Trump Tower servers, and later the White House, Fox News reports.
Durham in a motion filed Feb. 11 said the purpose of the surreptitious intrusion was to establish a “narrative” of collusion between then-Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump and Russia.
Durham, appointed by then-Attorney General William Barr to lead a review into the Russia investigation, made the claim in his investigation that brought charges against an FBI attorney and former Clinton campaign lawyer Michael Sussman, who is currently charged with making a false statement to a federal agent.
In a section of the filing titled “Factual Background,” Durham claims that Sussman “had assembled and conveyed the allegations to the FBI on behalf of at least two specific clients, including a technology executive (Tech Executive 1) at a U.S.-based internet company (Internet Company 1) and the Clinton campaign.”
Durham’s filing said the “billing records reflect” that Sussman “repeatedly billed the Clinton Campaign for his work on the Russian Bank-1 allegations,” referencing fake white papers assembled by Sussman to indicate a connection between Trump and a Russian bank.
The filing also revealed that Sussman and the tech executive met and communicated with liberal activist lawyer Marc Elias.
