THREAD: Breaking. Durham files Motion to Compel Clinton Campaign, DNC, and Fusion GPS to produce material w/h based on "attorney-client" privilege.

2/ In sum, Durham wants the documents w/h identified in appendix to be given to court to decide if privilege. (Reading while tweeting so bear with me). First main argument is that Fusion wasn't retained to help w/ legal advise but to get dirt & that isn't protected.

3/ Ohhh, not sure if this was public before but the white paper re Alfa is included as an exhibit.

4/ Giggle...

5/ I didn't realize this...

6/ LOL Cites Fusion's book as support.

7/ Dang... Exhibit A under seal...

8/ Okay Sleuths...what was this about. AND this makes me even more sus about Joffe's tip to OIG about someone's computer communicating a foreign ip address.

9/ So, Sussmann represented Joffe, but didn't bill him, only Clinton Campaign.

10/ Cute.

11/ While government cites criminal activity exception, Durham doesn't press that argument, but focuses on fact it wasn't legal advise.

12/ Courtlistener has filing up now: courtlistener.com/docket/6039058…
