Mueller has emails from Stone pal Corsi about WikiLeaks Dem email dump

Source: NBC

Two months before WikiLeaks released emails stolen from the Clinton campaign, right-wing conspiracy theorist Jerome Corsi sent an email to former Trump campaign adviser Roger Stone anticipating the document dump, according to draft court papers obtained by NBC News.

"Word is friend in embassy plans 2 more dumps," Corsi wrote on Aug. 2, 2016, referring to WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange, according to the draft court papers. "One shortly after I'm back. 2nd in Oct. Impact planned to be very damaging."

The email was revealed in a draft court document, known as a statement of the offense, sent to Corsi by special counsel Robert Mueller's office. Mueller also sent Corsi a draft plea agreement stipulating that the special counsel would not oppose Corsi requesting a sentence of probation if he agreed to plead guilty to one count of lying to federal investigators.

This will be fun to watch https://politicalwire.com/2018/11/27/mueller-has-emails-to-stone-about-wikileaks-dump/

“Two months before WikiLeaks released emails stolen from the Clinton campaign, right-wing conspiracy theorist Jerome Corsi sent an email to former Trump campaign adviser Roger Stone anticipating the document dump,” according to draft court papers obtained by NBC News.

Wrote Corsi: “Word is friend in embassy plans 2 more dumps. One shortly after I’m back. 2nd in Oct. Impact planned to be very damaging.”

Meanwhile, draft court filings obtained by CNN outline significant insights into what special counsel Robert Mueller may know about Stone’s efforts to seek documents from WikiLeaks in 2016.

Prison for life is exactly what Jerome Corsi needs.

There was that "instruction" he made to Russia at a rally, about finding the missing emails. But I wonder if there's a way they were able to trace Stone/Corsi & Assange to Trump. It's close...so close. Trump is such an arrogant braggard who is none too bright, that I find it hard to believe he didn't screw up and leave a trail behind him.
