In Trump Conspiracy Lawsuit, Democrats Sicced The Equivalent Of A Special Counsel On Themselves thefederalist.com/2018/04/26/tru…
...the @DNC has just opened itself up to civil discovery by the defendants, who can now compel production of docs and other physical things, take depositions of DNC officials, employees, associates, candidates, operatives, and others.
In short, the DNC has just invited the defendants to peruse its most deeply held secrets.
The attorneys for defendant Roger Stone have already notified the DNC that it must preserve its files, email server, and other purported evidence of hacking.
In the course of discovery, the defendants should have the DNC’s server and CrowdStrike’s work analyzed to either confirm or disprove the presence of Russian malware. If none is found, they should investigate to determine who was responsible for that deception.
Similarly, they should have the DNC files released by Guccifer 2.0 analyzed to determine if they were altered to give the false impression that the Russians had hacked the server. If, as appears likely, the server was not hacked, why did Hillary Clinton and DNC claim it was?
Defense counsel should also investigate whether the DNC files were stolen by someone who had direct physical access to the DNC server. In that regard, who at DNC had a motive to leak the files? Could it be someone who wanted to make public the underhanded treatment of Sanders?
Finally, since the DNC has alleged collusion by the defendants with Russia, then the Steele dossier, the very genesis of the Trump-Russia collusion story, should be open for investigation.
.@HillaryClinton, whose campaign funded production of the dossier along with the DNC, would be a likely deponent, along w/Glenn Simpson of FusionGPS, Steele, Sidney Blumenthal, and others who have been involved in composing the salacious and unverified contents of the dossier.
