Jerome Corsi, Conspiracy Theorist, Is Subpoenaed in Mueller Investigation

Source: The New York Times



By Maggie Haberman

Sept. 5, 2018

Jerome Corsi, a conspiracy theorist and political commentator with connections to the former Trump adviser Roger J. Stone Jr., has been subpoenaed to testify on Friday before the grand jury in the special counsel investigation into Russia’s election interference and whether Trump associates conspired with the effort, his lawyer said on Wednesday.

The lawyer, David Gray, said that he anticipates that investigators for the special counsel, Robert S. Mueller III, plan to ask Mr. Corsi about his discussions with Mr. Stone, who appeared to publicly predict in 2016 that WikiLeaks planned to publish material damaging to Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign.

”He fully intends to comply with the subpoena,” Mr. Gray said, adding that the subpoena was not specific about the topic but that he and his client anticipated “it has to do with his communications with Roger Stone.”

Mr. Mueller’s team appears to be zeroing in on Mr. Stone as a possible nexus between the Trump campaign and WikiLeaks, which was used by Russian intelligence officers to spread information stolen from Democrats, according to an indictment by Mr. Mueller’s team. Another former associate of Mr. Stone, the New York political gadfly Randy Credico, is also expected to testify before the grand jury on Friday.

I have a hard time keeping track of the supporting actors in the
Roger Stone subplot, but after reading this passage from the
NYT story it's all coming back to me now...

Dr. Steve Pieczernik. He is an Alex Jones pal. Go to his web site if you dare, he has talked about the counter-coup against Hillary a long time ago. He has to be involved in some manner.

I campaigned for Kerry hard in '04, and that involved a ton of research into his Vietnam time and the Swiftboat Vets for Truth opposition. He and John O'Neill, my god...their pasty-complexioned, puffy-faced visages were on the media 24/7 back then, and I'm raging now just thinking of it.

Contemptible piece of human swill, I hope he goes down in flames.

The way these men lied and short-circuited what could have been a great presidency is infuriating.

for his part in the John Kerry smear regarding his service in Vietnam. He was the leader of the "Swiftboaters."

"Comedian and political activist Randy Credico says he plans to do impressions during his grand jury appearance Friday. "

That should go over well.

involved in this. You know it had to be common knowledge
within the govt...Just like in the old perry mason shows where
perry was grilling the hell out of some poor soul..the intensity
is building..all of a sudden a person stands up in the viewing
crowd screaming "I did it!..I did it!"...That's going , imho, to happen
pretty soon. Some body will go nuts..
