Those interested in the details of the Sussmann case, as well as breadcrumbs Durham has left indicating where he may be headed, there are two articles you should read. First us by Jeff Carlson and Hans Mahncke in Epoch Times: theepochtimes.com/details-in-mic…

Jeff and Hans do a stellar job of describing the case and persons identified in the indictment. The second is by @Techno_Fog , and goes into detail on the ins and outs of possible defendants in conspiracy charges soon to be brought by Durham. Here’s @Techno_Fog ‘s excellent

article: technofog.substack.com/p/where-does-j…

I’d like to elaborate a little on both. The way Durham’s indictment is structured, it’s plain as day that he has in mind bringing conspiracy charges, alleging a conspiracy to present false or misleading evidence to the feds, in support of an FBI investigation of Trump and his

team, so that Hillary’s campaign can feed the same information to the press, buttressed by the fact that the FBI seems it sufficiently serious that they launched a criminal investigation in the middle of an election. The Sussmann indictment mentions people on two ends of this

scheme: the scientists and tech guys who engage in compiling and possibly fabricating the data (Max, Tea Leaves, etc), and the high up “VIPs” such as Jennifer Palmieri, Jake Sullivan, Lisa Monico, and Hillary, who took the results of what the low-end participants did and ran with

it as political narrative. In the middle as the central player were Perkins Coie, and in particular Sussmann and Marc Elias, and Fusion GPS. The scheme relied on attorney client privilege to insulate the VIPs from the dirty work being done by the lower down grunts who actually

created and packaged the false and misleading evidence. As @Techno_Fog discusses, this scheme didn’t end with the Alfa Bank narrative. There was also the Steele dossier that was handled in the same way by the research firm and law firm in the middle, insulating the Campaign VIPs.

A deep dive into @Techno_Fog ‘s article yields many clues about what Durham is up to. The article cites a privilege log (that’s a list of documents a litigant doesn’t want to produce to the other side in a lawsuit because they are subject to the attorney client privilege) filed

in the civil suit for defamation filed by Alfa Bank owners. Those logs show internal documents of Fusion in which drafts of memos are circulated in house on or around July 27, 2016, having as the subject “Carter Page.” Similar documents appear in the logs referencing Alfa Bank

memos. They show that Fusion was actively involved at the end of July in drafting or reviewing memos that ultimately found their way to the FBI. What else happened on July 27? That was likely the date Steele memo 95 (undated on its face) was created. That’s the memo that places

Manafort and Carter Page in the middle of an “extensive conspiracy” between Trump and Russia involving a quid quo pro, whereby Russia would help Trump win the election by providing dirt on Hillary, in exchange for Trumps agreement to back off on Ukraine. Here’s the dossier:

s3.documentcloud.org/documents/3259…. Also in Memo 95 were statements attributing these bombshell allegations to someone inside the Trump camp- Source E, an ethnic Russian. Almost immediately Fusion outed Source E to the press, and Steele outed him to the DoS, as Sergei Millian.

But it was all false. Millian was never Steele’s source. Steele’s primary sub source. Igor Danchenko, tried but failed to arrange a meeting with Millian, so that at least the conspirators could claim plausible deniability- his word versus my word. But the meeting never happened

and Danchenko’s sub sources back in Russia fairly well debunked any of the fantastical claims Danchenko says he passed on to Steele based on what Danchenko’s Russian sources told him. It was all made up.

So what are the implications for future conspiracy indictments? As with the Alfa Bank narrative, Durham began piecing his case together by focusing on the bottom level- the scientists and researchers in the case of Alfa Bank, and Danchenko in the case of the dossier, according to

news reports cited by @Techno_Fog. Since the structure and the timing of both schemes are the same, the next level up is the law firm and Fusion. The individuals involved are the same, plus Christopher Steele. Their names can be found in the privilege log descriptions linked to

@Techno_Fog ‘s article, identifying who participated in drafting a complete fictional account, based on secret source E (Millian), of a conspiracy between Trump and Russia. The only unanswered question is what VIPs are caught up in this conspiracy.

According to the news articles in @Techno_Fog ‘s article, the Alfa Bank scientists and researchers have appeared before the grand jury, and there’s a hint that Danchenko has as well. If they were effectively represented, that means they appeared and testified under a grant of

… of immunity, or they appeared after striking a deal with Durham to plead guilty and to cooperate with the investigation, Durham is more interested in those higher up in the scheme.

And then there’s the FBI side of the scheme. The advantage Durham would have in structuring a large conspiracy case as I’ve described is that it makes it simple to rope rogue FBI agents and executives into the same corrupt scheme. Any member of the FBI involved in the

investigation who saw the evidence and concluded it was all fake, but nevertheless kept the investigation going by preparing false reports, burying evidence, and securing warrants based on knowingly false evidence. would be deemed to have joined the conspiracy.

To sum up, by couching the false statement indictment against Sussmann as a conspiracy case, Durham has put everyone- the mid-level central planners (the lawyers and Fusion), the higher up VIPs in the campaign, and the federal employees who joined in- and their lawyers- on notice

P.S.- The VIPs may not get the protection they hoped for from the attorney/client privilege. The privilege does not apply, and nothing is protected, if the client uses their lawyer to commit a crime.
