Ex-F.B.I. Lawyer Expected to Plead Guilty in Durham Investigation. Not real exciting but it’s a start for John Durham.
The lawyer, Kevin Clinesmith, 38, who was assigned to the Russia investigation, plans to admit that he altered an email from the C.I.A. that investigators relied on to seek renewed court permission in 2017 for a secret wiretap on the former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page, who had at times provided information to the spy agency. Mr. Clinesmith’s lawyers said he made a mistake while trying to clarify facts for a colleague, the people said.

I to fall. He’s cutting a deal to be sure. The co-conspirators might wish to get their lawyers on speed dial and all the book deals done.
Yeah, that's the important part of this. He made a deal, which means he HAS to tell the Justice Department everything he knows. I suspect there's a lot of people wetting their pants right now, including Comey and the current director of the FBI.
Comey will be safe, Mittens is shielding him.
Well, we gotta start somewhere.
I heard today that some scumbag judge ruled Hitlery doesn't have to testify in her email trial.

"...he made a mistake...", which just happened to be a felony; this is like the street criminals who murder rival drug peddlers, then tearfully plead that they just "...made a few bad decisions..."
BTW, must you provide links to the Times Of New York? I have to scrub my eyeballs with bleach after reading more than a few paragraphs of their bilge.
That was the first place that had it up this morning. Sorry.
