The problem is really the speed at which the data breech download happened. There isn't a web connection on earth that could take that much data, that quickly. It was a direct off the server to a solid state device (data fob). This is where Crowd Strike is obfuscating, and conflating information to the uninitiated data folk. They may as well be asserting they can drive from Ny to LA in 20 minutes.
How many have gone to prison with this Kabuki Theater crapulence? Oh yeah, ZERO.
Any faith I had in the US Gruberment disappeared faster than an anti-narrative story from the Fake News (Useless Idiots) after the stolen election and Barr's covering for the Deep Swamp.
The thing that is most disheartening ... Sussman is charged with Lying to Federal Investigators. That charge can only be brought if the lie is material (i.e. the investigators were misdirected by the lie). Anyone that remembers back to the Flynn case, the same charge never made any sense because they had the transcript of the phone call. Flynn couldn't have possibly misled them because they could read what was read for themselves.
The entire Sussman indictment is predicated the FBI and DOJ only did what they did because Sussman tricked them into opening a counterintelligence investigation into the Trump campaign. That is laughably absurd based on what is already spelled out in the Nunes Memo and elsewhere. FBI lawyer James Baker apparently is already being given a walk. No indication anyone in the FBI or DOJ is being looked at for anything.
Sundance at Conservative Treehouse believes Durham is part of a cover-up, just like Bill Barr. Sundance is respected by many, but sometimes gets past his skis on legal matters.
Non-lawyer here, but given the 27-page speaking indictment, 6,000 documents, and assertions of lots more documents coming, it doesn't look like a cover-up to me. It appears much more is coming, whether the Swamp stops it, another matter. If Durham was a cover-up 'cleaner', he could have closed shop after the Clinesmith indictment, and retired.
81,000 pages! And we all know there's more to come. Elias, Sussman and the Hillary Crew all know what's coming. Can't wait until that circular firing squad starts shooting.
Oh, and meanwhile Mengele-Fauci LIED to Congress, just like Hanoi John Fonda Kerry did in his false Winter Soldier BS but once again, a (D) doesn't go to prison unless they've outlived their usefulness, i.e., Blago.
Wonder how Crowd Strike feels about their involvement with the DNC based on a personal friendship? Friends don't mistreat each other and remain friends. Crowd Strike has many business interests beyond politics whereas Fusion GPS exists solely as a political operative. That lawyers are caught speaks to their inability to sense vulnerability. Durham has buried them in discovery dramatically increasing the costs to defend. Do we expect a settlement? Obviously Durham won't be trifled with.
The infinite resources of the government unravelled the Manafort tangle. We can hope that the same set of resources will lay bare the 2016 farce.
Pity that the resources can't be focused on Elias and the 2020 election. The Republicans were asleep as the courts changed laws and need to wake up going forward. They don't seem to have the money to counter the likes of Elias's team.
"What if Crowdstrike was a patsy, there to unknowingly reach false conclusions..."
You posit that and, maybe, but HIGHLY unlikely....
for this reason:
Assuming competency, no pro worth anything would consider the discovery of Russian text in a virus as anything other than intentional misdirection. Crowdstrike either played along or is less competent than a bunch of 11 yr. olds.
Re: CrowdStrike- in his closed testimony to congress, which was hidden from the public for more than two years, Shawn Henry admitted that they only had "circumstantial evidence," and "no concrete evidence" that data on the (supposedly) hacked servers was ever exfiltrated; it merely looked like it might have been exfiltrated, but they could not confirm that it ever was.
In addition, in his testimony to congress, Comey acknowledged that despite their multiple requests, the DNC never provided the FBI with the actual server(s) in question, meaning the FBI never conducted their own forensic analysis and merely relied on the DNC/PC/CrowdStrike's redacted report on the supposed hacking.
The highest military honors await for you, Techno. Thank you for your service.

And this new release clearly indicates the false statements charge is a place-holder for more significant indictments.
Now, I think the Merrick DoJ will close this down before the end of the year- probably on the Friday after Thanksgiving.
One can infer that the Alfa-Bank/Trump hoax was initiated primarily as a backup to the DNC/Russian hackers hoax.

Absolutely BRILLIANT! And beautifully written in language that regulars can understand, even me.

His name was Seth Rich……who from Hillary’s campaign sent the email:” an embarrassment of pandas”?
Great writeup !
