In case your readers are interested, cybersecurity lawyer Sussmann (his name has a double "n") was not merely "affiliated" with the Democratic Party when he dealt with Neustar, but was a member of Hillary Clinton's Presidential Campaign Committee. His allegations to the FBI about a covert connection between Trump and a Russian bank were found by the FBI to be unsubstantiated. A federal grand jury indicted him for lying to the FBI for having told the Bureau that he was not making his allegations on behalf of any client when in fact he was doing so as Neustar's and the Clinton Campaign's paid advocate or political operative -- a fact that would have had a bearing on the FBI's ability to assess the credibility of the allegations.

In light of this, your headline might have more accurately been written "Becciu's 'classified' tech company linked to CLINTON'S Russia allegations," since it wasn't Trump who was making them.

John Durham, the Trump-era special counsel scrutinizing the investigation into Russia’s 2016 election interference, distanced himself on Thursday from false reports by right-wing news outlets that a motion he recently filed said Hillary Clinton’s campaign had paid to spy on Trump White House servers.

Your reply is misdirected. The indictment charges what it charges, as I laid out in my post.
