Gregg Jarrett & Lee Smith: Russiagate as a Broad Criminal Conspiracy

The Russiagate Conspiracy

• 💡 Gregg Jarrett and Lee Smith discuss the "Russiagate" narrative as a broad criminal conspiracy orchestrated by unscrupulous officials.
• 🎯 The conspiracy is described as involving conspiracy to defraud the government, deprivation of rights under color of law, obstruction of justice, and an elaborate cover-up.
• 🔑 The statute of limitations for conspiracy cases may be extended due to the deliberate concealment of evidence, with recently discovered incriminating documents at the FBI and hidden records by Comey.

Media's Role in the Narrative

• 📰 Lee Smith highlights that the mainstream media, particularly The Washington Post and The New York Times, were not merely reporting but were a crucial platform for leaks and an active part of the "serial crime spree."
• ⚠️ The media is accused of misrepresenting the Durham annex, downplaying the authenticity of Clinton's emails, and ignoring the fact that the Clinton campaign funded the dossier.
• 🚫 The New York Times is criticized for winning a Pulitzer Prize for a story that got the collusion narrative fundamentally wrong, and for their continued investment in maintaining the fiction of Trump-Russia collusion.

Accountability and Evidence

• ⚖️ Both guests express a desire for clarification and accountability for those who were harmed by the events, including individuals like General Flynn, Roger Stone, and Paul Manafort.
• 🔍 Lee Smith believes there is sufficient evidence in the newly released documents and the Durham Report to investigate who buried the information within the FBI.
• 🧠 Gregg Jarrett suggests that while inventing and selling lies is easy, uncovering the truth is hard, and the DOJ needs to gather credible evidence before presenting it to a grand jury.
• 🇺🇸 The overarching impact is seen as a scheme to frame Trump for collusion and a plot that ultimately targeted the American constitutional republic.
