The majority of Democrats believe that special counsel John Durham should examine former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's suspected role in obtaining information tying former President Donald Trump to Russia.

According to a poll done last month by the TechnoMetrica Institute of Policy and Politics (TIPP) in New Jersey, 66 percent of Democrats believe Clinton should be investigated.

Overwhelming Majority of Dems Want Hillary Clinton Investigated

That's up 22% from when TIPP asked the same question in October, indicating that Democrats are becoming increasingly concerned about Durham's investigation into the FBI's investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 election. The number of Republicans who believe Hillary Clinton should be investigated as a result of Durham's investigation has increased to 91 percent, up from 80% in October.

The number of independents has risen from 65 percent to 74 percent. Before Durham's shocking court filing this weekend, a poll of 1,308 Americans was conducted. One of the Clinton campaign's lawyers, Michael Sussmann, has already been charged with lying to the FBI.

In September, a grand jury indicted him, and he has pled not guilty. Sussmann reportedly supplied the FBI "data files" holding proof of a backchannel between the Trump campaign and Russia, as per Washington Times.

Durham indicted a cybersecurity lawyer at the powerful Democratic law firm Perkins Coie in September of last year on charges of making false statements to then-FBI general counsel James A. Baker about Sussmann's ties to the Clinton campaign while passing on information to Baker in September 2016 about the purported Trump-Alfa Bank link.

Sussmann repeatedly billed the Clinton Campaign for his work on the [Alfa-Bank] claims, according to prosecutors, even though he repeatedly billed the Clinton Campaign for his work on the allegations. The FBI looked into the rumored connection between the Trump Organization and Alfa-Bank and found no evidence to back it up.

The server in question was not owned or maintained by the Trump Organization. Instead, it was handled by a mass marketing email business that delivered advertising for Trump's properties and hundreds of other customers, according to the indictment. Sussmann is also accused of informing at least one New York Times writer about the Alfa-Bank idea in September's indictment.

"There might be an innocent explanation, like a commercial email or spam," the FBI said in an article released the same day as Clinton's tweets, but the FBI decided that the computer interactions could be a benign explanation, like a marketing email or spam, according to New York Post.

Hillary Clinton Pushed Trump-Russia Theory

Durham intended to try to defame Trump by tying him to Russia, according to a recently-released file. Although the accusation has never been verified, Hillary Clinton's team has frequently accused Trump of communicating with Russians via a hidden server.

In October 2020, while Trump was president, then-Attorney General William Barr named Durham to serve as the United States Department of Justice's Special Counsel. He's still looking into a matter that's bound to irritate the 45th president's supporters.

Sussman, who has been charged with giving a false statement to a federal investigator, was the subject of Durham's request, which was filed on Friday. In response to the charge, Sussman has pleaded not guilty.

Kash Patel, the House Intelligence Committee's former chief investigator on the Trump-Russia investigation, said Friday's filing "definitely showed the Hillary Clinton campaign directly funded and ordered its lawyers at Perkins Coie to orchestrate a criminal enterprise to fabricate a link between President Trump and Russia," Daily Mail reported.
