For obvious reasons, the media minimized his importance and presented Clinesmith as a low-level FBI lawyer. The reality is that he was a member of the Hillary Clinton email investigation team (Midyear Exam).

The report states Clinesmith was the “the primary FBI attorney assigned to that investigation beginning in early 2017.” He then joined Robert Mueller’s investigation team and was dismissed in February 2018 after his anti-Trump text messages had been revealed.

But perhaps more significantly, they occurred just after the FBI had submitted the first application to the FISA Court.

Clinesmith writes, “I am so stressed about what I could have done differently.” I wonder what he means by that. If only he’d altered more documents? Falsified a few additional records?
