We touched on this in another post on the FBI admitting its “missteps” in handling Crossfire Hurricane, but we’d like to revisit it because it brings Hillary Clinton directly into the conversation. The Durham Report essentially states that everyone knew the allegations of collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia were bogus but spent years “investigating” it anyway.
As we reported back in May 2022, the trial of Hillary Clinton campaign lawyer Michael Sussman revealed FBI Agent Curtis Heide was being investigated for withholding information. Heide worked with the lead agent on the Alfa Bank case and was also the case agent on the George Papadopoulos case. Sussman was the one who made up the whole story about Donald Trump having a secret back-channel to Alfa Bank, a Russian bank. Clinton then tweeted out the press release which she knew was 100 perfect fake.
Heide messaged on Sept. 22, 2016, that the FBI was “leaning toward this being a false server.” By Halloween, Clinton was spreading around a press release about a “new report” exposing “Trump’s Secret Line of Communication to Russia.”

According to the Durham Report, the FBI agents who were fed the fake Russian bank story by Sussman knew it was a lie, but they were ordered to open a full case into it anyway:

“The false claim that Trump was connected to a Russian bank were also given to the media with full coordination between Hillary Clinton’s campaign, Fusion GPS, Sussman and Marc Elias.”
I would very much like to hear from @NatashaBertrand if she still thinks the Trump/Alpha Bank story is “occam’s razor.”pic.twitter.com/j9JfuukCbr

Glenn Greenwald took “Fusion Natasha” apart in a thread last spring.
And there's also this from Jake Sullivan, who now works as Biden's National Security Adviser https://t.co/yhHocMIhoe

The republic is dead. We don’t stand a chance next year. They’ve already fortified their win. We’re all just going through the motions for ritual purposes.

Can you spell election interference? Sure you can. And it wasn't by the Russians, it was by our good old three-letter agencies

Things we already knew but now confirmed. Right on. Still nothing will happen.

All the money wasted and election interference. Defamation suits should be filed

We haven’t seen any reporters return their Pulitzers for reporting on the Russian collusion story.
It’s so ridiculous that this took so long to get out when almost all of it was known & verifiable shortly after it occurred. And we were called conspiracy theorists for pointing all of it out 🙄
Seems like they use these “investigations” to filibuster

@HillaryClinton tried to play an intense political game and has gotten caught repeatedly with her hand in the political cookie jar.

Do NOT absolve the “rank and file” for this treasonous fraud. They did the leg work. They never spoke up. They don’t get a pass. None of them.

So now what? A big fat nothing will happen to the scumbags
Hey democrats here’s your coup— Pirate1983 (@Mutley1983Pew) May 15, 2023
The FBI leadership, Hillary Clinton, Obama and Biden all participated in a series of criminal events to take down a sitting president and in the process destroyed many lives! This is treason!!

Trump was too dangerous a threat to Democracy to allow to be elected, so any means necessary to prevent his election was justified, the same logic as for 2020.
— Tom Ewall (@pnattmbtc_) May 15, 2023
Yep. Democrats would do anything to win in 2016, and when that didn’t pan out, they just kept running with the lie until it was time for 2020 and the “Russian disinformation” hoax.
