Special Counsel John Durham may have uncovered a smoking gun in the government's case against Michael Sussmann when he published documents Monday night that show that Sussmann texted the FBI general counsel's personal cellphone, saying he was not working "on behalf of a client or company."
Sussmann was, in fact, working for two clients at the time — Hillary Clinton's 2016 presidential campaign and "Tech Executive-1."
The Washington Examiner identified "Tech Executive-1" as former Neustar executive Rodney Joffe.
When he met with FBI General Counsel James Baker to advance since disproven claims about a secret communications channel between the Trump Organization and a Russia-based bank, the Democrat cybersecurity lawyer allegedly concealed his clients from the federal agent.
Last September, Sussmann was indicted on one count of making a materially false statement to an FBI official.
The Examiner reports that the indictment alleged Sussmann lied when he said he was not working on behalf of anyone, when he was actually passing the allegations on to the FBI on behalf of the Clinton campaign and Joffe.
Sussmann's lawyers tried to argue last year that there was no evidence to prove that Sussmann lied to Baker.
On Monday night, however, Durham unveiled a text message that showed Sussmann put the lie into writing on Sept. 18, 2016, which was the night before his meeting with Baker.
"Jim — it's Michael Sussmann," he wrote to the FBI official. "I have something time-sensitive (and sensitive) I need to discuss. Do you have availibilty [sic] for a short meeting tomorrow? I'm coming on my own – not on behalf of a client or company – want to help the Bureau. Thanks."
I hear they are a thing
