...Questions have long been asked about Sussman’s involvement in the potential cover-up of the DNC hack in 2016. It was Sussman who brought in CrowdStrike (given his close relationship with founder Shawn Henry) to look into the DNC hack. According to Politico: In late April [2016], the DNC's IT department noticed some suspicious behavior and contacted DNC chief executive officer Amy Dacey, according to a DNC official. Dacey reached out to DNC lawyer Michael Sussmann, a partner at the Perkins Coie law firm and a former federal prosecutor specializing in cybercrimes. Sussmann called Shawn Henry, the president of cybersecurity firm CrowdStrike, to get his company's help.

This CrowdStrike/Perkins Coie links put into perspective this information in the the New York Times article, where Durham has been pursuing a theory that the Clinton campaign used Perkins Coie to submit dubious information to the F.B.I. about Russia and Mr. Trump in an effort to gin up investigative activity to hurt his 2016 campaign. If that is the case, then we doubt it would be limited to the Alfa Bank allegations.

This is interesting. If this article is correct, and I assume it is, it shows that the Durham investigation has its hooks into the little explored (by internet researchers) Alfa Bank connections to the Clinton cartel, and has found a direct link to both of them with CrowdStrike. And now that link, Perkins Coie sleaze Sussman, has been caught lying. There is a lot of meat on that hook. This is an encouraging development.
