When the news broke last week that the jury acquitted former Clinton lawyer Michael Sussman on charges of lying to the FBI during the 2016 election cycle. This is one of only two cases brought by U.S. Attorney John Durham, who was appointed by then AG Bill Barr to open a Special Counsel investigation into the origins of the FBI's probe into Russian interference in that election. That he was acquitted, and almost immediately after the jury got the case, dealt a blog to the former guy's narrative. But I don't listen to their spin. I go the one of the best journalists on this beat-- Marcy Wheeler at emptywheel.net. That day-one week ago today- my show was already booked, with Digby! I thought I might be able to have both Digby and Marcy Wheeler on the same show, but realized that wouldn't be fair to any of us. So I used the Marcy Wheeler interview on the Bradcast as I guest hosted that night. But it hasn't aired on my show yet. Until today. We taped this interview a week ago today. Nothing has changed except that yesterday, Enrique Tarrio and five more members of the Proud Boys already charged with conspiracy and obstruction of an official proceeding were indicted on an additional charge of Seditious Conspiracy! The hearings begin in two days... popcorn ready for popping.
