The trial of Hillary Clinton Attorney Michael Sussman started today in Washington DC. Prosecutors revealed that Sussmann gave James Baker two thumb drives. The drives were handed to agent Scott Hellman who looked at the material and said, “We do not agree with the conclusion about any connection between the Trump organization and Russia. He said whoever wrote that jumped to conclusions that were not supported in the data.
Sussmann was charged last year with concealing his clients — Hillary Clinton’s 2016 campaign and “Tech Executive-1,” known to be former Neustar executive Rodney Joffe — from FBI General Counsel James Baker when he pushed debunked allegations on Trump and the Alpha Bank.
Democrat elections Attorney Marc Elias is expected to testify today in Sussmann’s trial.
The Washington Examiner reported:
Marc Elias, the top lawyer for Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign, is expected to testify today in special counsel John Durham’s case against Democratic cybersecurity lawyer Michael Sussmann.
Elias, who last year started the Elias Law Group, was the Clinton campaign’s general counsel and hired the opposition research firm Fusion GPS, which hired Christopher Steele in 2016. Elias testified he was aware of Fusion’s plans to have Steele brief reporters during the 2016 contest, met with Steele in 2016, and periodically briefed the campaign about the findings from Fusion and Steele. Elias coordinated closely with his former Perkins Coie law firm colleague Sussmann on anti-Trump research in 2016.
Elias’s testimony is expected to follow opening arguments from the prosecution and defense the day after a jury was selected.
Sussmann was charged last year with concealing his clients, Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign and “Tech Executive-1,” known to be former Neustar executive Rodney Joffe, from FBI general counsel James Baker when he presented debunked allegations suggesting a secret back channel between the Trump Organization and Russia’s Alfa-Bank during a September 2016 meeting.
