Sussmann Jury Nullification Marks the End of American Justice as We Knew It

American justice isnโ€™t only dead, itโ€™s decomposed. Long live totalitarianism!

We can join the world now. Au revoir, American Exceptionalism. We are China. We are Putinโ€™s Russia. We are the European Union, drifting ever more swiftly into Davos globalism and the Great Reset. We are the Ayatollahโ€™s Iran. We are Orwellโ€™s โ€œAnimal Farmโ€ and then some.

Most of all, goodbye to the rule of law. Was it ever there? I seem to have vague memories.

The jurors in John Durhamโ€™s trial of attorney Michael Sussmannโ€”which resulted in the Clinton campaign lawyerโ€™s acquittalโ€”will be remembered, by those allowed to remember, if any, as the moment our already decaying justice system went completely south.

The D.C. jurors, revealed in the voir dire to have been completely biased in the first place, demonstrated that the English language itselfโ€”and the evidence available thereinโ€”was of no interest to them. They not only nullified a possible verdict, but they also nullified English by ignoring the email that Sussmann wrote then FBI attorney (now Twitter stalwart) James Baker the night before their meeting.

โ€œI have something time-sensitive (and sensitive) I need to discuss. Iโ€™m coming on my ownโ€”not on behalf of a client or companyโ€”want to help the Bureau.โ€

Baker testified that Sussmann told him the same thing in person, yet billing records, and much subsequent activity, clearly show that Sussmann was lying. He was working for Hillary Clinton via the Perkins Coie law firm. Several years of ugly U.S. history flowed from that.

Did the jury care? Evidently not. Their decision was close to immediate.

The jurorsโ€™ justification, assuming they bothered to use it, of the questionable โ€œmaterialityโ€ of Sussmannโ€™s lies has some small justification, but only up to a point. Yes, the FBIโ€™s feelings for Donald Trump were already somewhere between repugnance and revulsionโ€”as evidenced by many emails we have seen and probably even more that we havenโ€™tโ€”but if we are to believe that makes Sussmannโ€™s lie irrelevant, we are also to believe there wasnโ€™t a widespread conspiracy in which he was very willing participant against the candidate and then president, an entente cordiale, as they say.

Surely there was.

And that entente cordiale was among the most despicable acts ever performed by Americans against their fellow citizens.

This would make Sussmann a true believer in โ€œthe ends justify the means.โ€ What a disgrace to the American legal profession he is. More despicable still, he will undoubtedly be rewarded for his lies.

It was undoubtedly true that Durham had hoped Sussmann would fear incarceration and turn stateโ€™s evidence, opening up a whole host of possibilities for further prosecutions. The special counsel knew he would be up against a D.C. jury, but my guess is he hadnโ€™t truly realized how bad things had become, how tainted that jury pool really was.

This is yet more evidence of mass formation psychosis. The citizens of our nationโ€™s capital have been brainwashed, by the legacy media and the reactionary zeitgeist of the world in which they live.

This must end for our children.
