Michael Sussmann Acquitted

“A lawyer for Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign was acquitted Tuesday of lying to the FBI when he pushed information meant to cast suspicions on Donald Trump and Russia in the run-up to that year’s election. The case against Michael Sussmann was the first courtroom test of special counsel John Durham since his appointment three years ago to search for government misconduct during the investigation into potential ties between Russia and Trump’s 2016 campaign.” (AP News)

The left supports the verdict, and argues that Durham’s investigation has failed to uncover criminal behavior.

The right is disappointed by the verdict, but argues that the case exposed significant FBI misconduct.
