Sussmann Trial Exposes Dems' Scandal-Industrial Process

Last Thursday, the FBI's former general counsel, James Baker, testified at length that his old friend Sussmann had requested an urgent private meeting and provided the bureau damning, confidential information.

Sussmann made the same claim in a text message to Baker the night before.

Baker gave the materials Sussmann had provided to the bureau's cyber experts, who quickly discovered it was rubbish.

That's why Sussmann wanted the late October meeting with Baker so urgently.

Two days after Sussmann gave the FBI his information, the head of the bureau's counter-intelligence division texted a colleague, "People of the 7th floor to include Director are fired up about this server." They were so fired up they refused to let agents know Sussmann's name, referred to him as the "Department of Justice," and refused to let agents interview the authors of the cyber data given to Baker.

The FBI handled the Steele dossier the same way they handled Sussmann's material - a mixture of incompetence and malign intent, trampling over administrative safeguards and legal rules in an effort to ensnare Donald Trump.
