Clinesmith also expressed concerns about Trump’s election win because of the lawyer’s role investigating the campaign.

“Plus, my god damned name is all over the legal documents investigating his staff,” wrote Clinesmith, who is referred to as “FBI Attorney 2” in the June 2018 report.

In a Nov. 22, 2016 text message discussion about Trump, Clinesmith wrote: “Viva le Resistance!”

spokesman for the special counsel’s team downplayed Clinesmith’s role on the investigation when contacted last year by The Daily Caller News Foundation. The spokesman described Clinessmith as having an administrative role.

But the OIG report released last year described Clinesmith as the “primary FBI attorney” on the Trump-Russia investigation in early 2017.

"Clinesmith included the email in an affidavit that was presented to another FBI official to sign as part of the process to submit the renewal application."

Okay, who's the a-hole who signed the affidavit with the altered email attached? Comey? He signed three of them.

Clinesmith was part of the FBI team that interviewed Papadopoulos on Feb. 16, 2017.

More evidence that this was an organized cabal, all joined in one thing...to get Trump out of office.

“spokesman for the special counsel’s team downplayed Clinesmith’s role on the investigation”

Well, if the spokesman was under the direction of Wiessman, of course he would lie.
