We have the transcripts from day 1 of the Igor Danchenko trial. Pretrial matters and jury selection took up all of yesterday morning; openings and the prosecution’s case-in-chief, led by Special Counsel Durham, started in the afternoon.
Let’s dig in and start with the opening statements.
Special Counsel Prosecutor Michael Keilty opened with explanations of Danchenko’s lies to the FBI and discussed some FBI misconduct:

Basically they tried to bribe a key witness to lie.

is this SOP for the fibbers? didn't they give immunity to cheryl mills and others on the hildabeast's staff at State??
nothing came of hildabeast's interviews with the fibbers because they got immunity.
will danchenko's immunity be his defense, too???
question: where does the payoff money come from??
Pinging the Durham ping list to Techno fog’s article.
I am totally clueless about legal stuff. I await the Durham Trial for Dummies version! It interests me greatly but I always need simple summaries.
Help! Help! The link escaped & has gone missing! LOL :-)
Update: I figured out what the deal was. Brain like a brick, that’s me. Heh. :-)
Donald Trump should be able to sue everyone involved and win bigly.
I was going to post the article ie parts of it, on the “other” thread and then saw it was posted here. Thus pings came here. Technofog is doing daily summaries.
