Closing arguments will begin later this morning in Special Counsel John Durham’s false statement case against former Hillary Clinton campaign attorney Michael Sussmann, after Sussmann made a last-minute decision on Thursday not to testify in his own defense. The evidence prosecutors elicited from witnesses over the last two weeks provides overwhelming proof of Sussmann’s guilt and destroys the many defense theories Sussmann’s legal team floated throughout the trial. Yet a conviction of a fellow D.C.-swamp dweller may be unattainable.

The electoral system has failed. The judicial system has failed.
What's left besides rope and lampposts?

It's a Democrat tainted Jury.
He is guilty all right, but his being found guilty will perhaps lead to an indictment against Hillary Clinton His being found Not guilty will probably be the end of Durhams' investigation as it would be a waste of time going after people that a Democrat jury would turn loose no matter what the evidence was.
Never look for Justice against highly placed democrats, We all know what Hillary did here was Treason, and she will skate.

If there is a hung jury and if it is not too late, I would hope that the prosecutors seek moving the trial out of DC. I do not think any DC jury could reasonably be expected to be unbiased.

If he gets off, we have nothing. This is a cold civil war that we are losing.

If this trial goes to the jury today, Friday, the jury will vote for an acquittal on the single count by this afternoon so that they can enjoy 3 day weekend. Only hope is that one or two jurors vote for conviction so that judge declares a hung jury next week.
What’s most disgusting with this prosecution is that the person Sussmann lied for, Hillary Clinton, avoids all legal liability. Durham appears to be a useful idiot.

Since the courts and most citizens of the District of Criminals are biased, these types of trials should be done by a military court.

I pray the jury will do the right thing. I bet money that they won't.
And if he gets convicted, do any of us think he'll spend even a night in jail, much less be tossed in the "hole" like Paul Manafort?

Why the negative headline? We still have a jury system in this Country and they have been good so far.
So don't give up, yet.
Stay positive.
Maybe say a prayer.

Remember Scooter Libby? He didn't commit a crime but the Democrats got him convicted and he did time. Democrats commit real crimes and get off without penalty.

An acquittal is already baked in. High ranking Democrats and their parasites are never eligible for prison time no matter the charges. Really high rankers are shot dead on the street or commit "suicide" before they begin to blab.

He's a Democrat, so he'll be found "innocent" when actually guilty.

It's DEE CEE.
Three of the jurors are Hillary campaign contributors.
A fourth juror has a daughter on the same college 'crew' (racing rowboat) team as Sussman's daughter.
The Judge used to work with Sussman.
This is the 'Just-Us' system on full display.
The Fix is IN!
