Apparently it’s thought that if Republicans or conservatives plea the Fifth Amendment, it must mean they are “guilty”. Well, then we’re left wondering what exactly the five associates of “the smartest woman in the world” Hillary Clinton and her campaign desperately trying to hide?
Breitbart reported that the five Clinton associates have chosen to invoke their Fifth Amendment rights and refuse to cooperate with Special Counsel John Durham per a federal filing in a Washington D.C. courtroom.
If you remember, one individual among Clinton’s team, Michael Sussman was charged with lying to the FBI back in 2016 when he fabricated fraudulent ties between Donald Trump and the Russian government through a Moscow-based bank named Alfa Bank.
Here are some of the Public reactions online:
Five Hillary Clinton associates have refused immunity deals from Durham and say they’ll take the 5th. If Hillary were Republican, the media headline would be: “Special Counsel John Durham uncovers a criminal cabal around Hillary Clinton!”

Jonathan Turley reported:
Recently, Durham revealed extremely damaging evidence against Sussmann. However, this is the first full description of the Clinton associates refusing to cooperate under the Fifth Amendment.
Durham noted that he gave immunity to an individual identified only as “Research 2.” He then noted that this was made necessary by the refusal to cooperate by key Clinton associates.
Seems impressive the number of Clinton associates pleading the 5th in the whole Russia hoax thing

Breitbart noted:
Durham’s filing indicates that the government wishes to introduce evidence of communications between the “Clinton Campaign leadership” and “Campaign Lawyer-1,” who is widely presumed to be Elias, about the Alfa Bank hoax..
