She has not been charged, so double jeopardy doesn't apply.

What you describe could be happening, but won't put up any legal roadblocks to reopening the investigation, only political pressure against doing so.

I wish I could say I had hope for this, but I don't. They may get a few of her low level cronies, but Hilary is untouchable.

I agree. I think even Bill has said that about her for a few decades now as well.

A new filing from Special Counsel John Durham suggests that officials from Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign could be called to testify as part of his probe into the origins of the federal government’s investigation into the Trump campaign.

In a document filed on Friday, Durham’s team urges a federal court to determine whether or not lawyers representing Russia analyst Igor Danchenko have a conflict of interest due to the fact that attorneys at their law firm also represent the 2016 “Hillary for America” presidential campaign and a key campaign staffer. The filing was first reported by the Washington Examiner.

Danchenko, a former employee of the Brookings Institute, was the lead source for former MI6 agent Christopher Steele’s dossier, which alleged that former President Donald Trump’s campaign colluded with the Russian government, and that Trump was personally compromised by Russian intelligence. The dossier’s key allegations have since been debunked.

Two lawyers representing Danchenko, Stuart Sears and Danny Onorato, work at the same law firm as Robert Trout, who represented Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta in his dealings with the House Intelligence Committee. As a result of this connection, federal prosecutors claim, “it is… likely that defense counsel’s firm already has obtained privileged information from the Clinton Campaign regarding matters involving or relating to the defendant, the Company Reports, and the conduct alleged in the Indictment.”

Notably, the filing suggests that Clinton campaign officials could be called to testify, which would also create a conflict of interest.

“In the event that one or more former representatives of the Clinton Campaign (who are represented by defense counsel’s firm) are called to testify at any trial or other court proceeding, the defendant and any such witness would be represented by the same law firm, resulting in a potential conflict,” the prosecutors write.

“The Clinton Campaign financed the opposition research reports, colloquially known as the ‘Dossier,’ that are central to the Indictment against the defendant,” leading “the interests of the Clinton Campaign and the defendant [to] potentially diverge,” they continued.

Other potential conflicts of interest could arise if Clinton Campaign and Danchenko attempt “to shift blame and/or responsibility to the other party for any allegedly false information that was contained within the Company Reports and/or provided to the FBI,” according to the filing.

Prosecutors note that Danchenko could waive any potential conflicts of interest.

Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden are competing to see which one can be the most dour, bitter, hate-filled Democrat leader int he country. Neither of them likes anyone. Both of them hate almost everyone.

Last week, Special Prosecutor John Durham sent up a flare to let everyone know more indictments are in the works...

John Durham has been a special prosecutor for almost a year and a half — not a long time, but plenty of time for a drumbeat to begin that he was showing little progress against his orders to examine the origins of the debunked Trump-Russia collusion narrative that convulsed a presidency. His few indictments so far have been directed against peripheral players, feeding a fear among Donald Trump’s supporters that elites higher up the stack are going to get away with their chicanery.

The problem for Durham is that these perceptions were providing the Biden Department of Justice (DOJ) with increasing political top cover to shut down the special prosecutor’s office as an unproductive, politics-driven exercise in futility that is wasting taxpayer dollars. If Durham were to be terminated, the American people might not even push back much since no one had a clue whether his investigation was bearing meaningful fruit.

Attorney General Merrick Garland already had undercut Durham’s investigation once by taking steps to rehabilitate the reputation of fired FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, a key figure in the origins of the Trump-Russia collusion debacle. The Biden DOJ is not friendly to the goals of Mr. Durham.

Durham couldn’t hold a news conference or pen an op-ed touting progress; that’s just not done by investigators in the middle of an investigation. So, he turned to a readily available vehicle — a routine, fairly innocuous motion filed with the court — to embed an explosive message to the DOJ and the American people. It landed like fireworks at a funeral. No one saw it coming.

Tucked inside the court filing, John Durham laid out a good chunk of the case he’s building, and it was stunning.

Durham revealed the outlines of a corrupt conspiracy by operatives linked to Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign. The exposed conspiracy made a contrived, fraudulent and shocking attempt to entice the FBI and CIA to use their powers against the rival Trump campaign and presidency.

This recent filing by Durham was designed to have two effects.

First, and most important, he has now made any decision by the president or attorney general to dump him much more difficult to undertake. The last time a president fired a special prosecutor who was making significant progress, he lost his presidency.

Second, Durham has signaled to the American people that his investigation has legs, despite perceptions of plodding inertia. He has provided hope that accountability in D.C. — rare as a MAGA sticker on a Prius — actually might happen.

Hopefully Mr. Durham will keep filing period "updates", in between the indictments he delivers.
