While it was expected that special counsel John Durham would challenge the official media and establishment narrative that the Trump-Russia investigation was properly predicated and carried out, it is Sussmann who challenged that narrative. Durham made it clear from day one of the trial that he would run with the opposite narrative, that the FBI was a victim. In essence, Durham forced Sussmann’s team to attack the FBI in order to exonerate their client. In possibly the biggest bombshell, Sussmann’s team revealed an internal FBI text message that proved that the FBI leadership under [[James Comey]] was vigorously pushing the Trump-Russia collusion hoax despite the flimsiness of the evidence. It is the first public acknowledgment backed by documentary evidence that FBI leadership was focused on taking out Trump.<ref>https://www.theepochtimes.com/new-internal-fbi-text-message-reveals-fbi-leaderships-desire-to-get-trump-truth-over-news_4492007.html</ref> Andrew McCarthy noted that the FBI ignored Sussmann's lies to get their hands on Trump. FBI headquarters officials fully realized they were acting on highly political information and took steps to conceal that fact.

Andrew McCarthy concluded that if Sussmann was acquitted, that will have a lot more to do with the FBI’s illegal machinations to interfere in the US [[2016 presidential election]] than Sussmann’s innocence.<ref>https://nypost.com/2022/05/26/fbi-ignored-lies-to-get-their-hands-on-trump/</ref>

On May 31, 2022, a [[District of Columbia]] jury acquitted Sussmann on one count of lying to investigators during a Sept. 19, 2016 meeting during which he conveyed now-debunked data that purportedly linked [[Trump Tower]] to Russia's [[Alfa Bank]]. The trial on the single count spanned almost two weeks, as prosecutors called over a dozen witnesses ranging from former FBI counsel [[James Baker]] to [[Hillary Clinton]]'s presidential campaign manager, [[Robby Mook]].
