Federal prosecutor Nora Dannehy, who has worked with Durham for decades, resigned Thursday evening, sources told the Hartford Courant in a story published Friday. Her resignation email did not include mention of political pressure.

Dannehy, whom sources told the Courant is not a supporter of President Trump, was reportedly conflicted between politics and loyalty to Durham, a longtime colleague. The career prosecutor has led high-profile investigations into leaders such as former Connecticut Gov. John G. Rowland (R).

how much insiders info did she have access to? Sounds like the Dems offered her some big bucks. I’d trail her.

WTH? There should be pressure. It’s time to start kicking ass and throwing people in jail, starting with Hillary. I’d make her share a cell with Adam Schiff...and maybe Charles Mason just to give her some company.

Barr must have told her to do her job and hold the Deep State to the same standards they hold us to.

"Her resignation email did not include mention of political pressure."
how do they eve post that headline ?

Federal prosecutor Nora Dannehy, who has worked with Durham for decades,
Dannehay left the Feds 10 years ago and came back into Fed service in March 2019 to assist Durham.

she is not a fan of Pres. Trump, so I wonder if they came up with stuff that just kills the RATs ?

Facts are pesky things. I suspect we are drawing near to some of her friends.

Yes, and no.

She has either been promised a job or money.

It is the way that #ComDem’s Swing.
