(Daily Caller)—Former White House lawyer Stefan Passantino sued Andrew Weissmann, former deputy to Robert Mueller, on Friday for libel, a copy of the legal complaint shows.
Passantino claimed that Weissmann intended to defame him in a September tweet when he allegedly referred to the lawyer as “the one who coached [Cassidy Hutchinson] to lie,” according to the court document. The complaint alleges that Weissmann “chose to smear” Passantino to advance his “career as a partisan political pundit.”
Hunt also is Cassidy Hutchinson’s good lawyer. (Not the one who coached her to lie) And he is the guy who took notes of Trump saying, when Mueller was appointed, quoting him as saying “I’m f….d” https://t.co/HFGmwI9f0B

“As with all my clients during my 30 years of practice, I represented Ms. Hutchinson honorably, ethically, and fully consistent with her sole interests as she communicated them to me (and others) while I represented her,” Passantino told the Daily Caller News Foundation. “As Ms. Hutchinson herself testified, I never counseled her to lie. I have never counseled a client to mislead anyone.”
The former Trump lawyer represented Hutchinson, a former White House aide, during the Jan. 6 Committee’s investigation, the complaint says. Hutchinson made several statements during the hearing that were later brought into question.
“Anyone who takes the time to read the transcripts in which I represent Ms. Hutchinson or to learn anything about me will know this one-sided caricature of me is false,” Passantino told the DCNF. “I have already initiated legal action arising from the January 6 Committee’s unlawful and unethical conduct. This country has defamation laws for a reason, and I intend to avail myself of them – starting today.”
“Defendant attacked Mr. Passantino as a means of distracting from and rehabilitating the contradictory and uncredible aspects of Ms. Hutchinson’s testimony, as they undermine the Select Committee and its partisan findings and purpose,” the complaint alleges. “Defendant’s smear has deeply damaged Mr. Passantino’s 30-year reputation and had caused him to lose significant business and income. Mr. Passantino seeks to hold Defendant accountable for this vicious lie and the damages it has wrought.”
Passantino is seeking $75,000 in damages, according to the complaint.
Weissmann did not immediately respond to the DCNF’s request for comment.

It’s becoming increasingly clear that fiat currencies across the globe, including the U.S. Dollar, are under attack. Paper money is losing its value, translating into insane inflation and less value in our life’s savings.
Genesis Gold Group believes physical precious metals are an amazing option for those seeking to move their wealth or retirement to higher ground. Whether Central Bank Digital Currencies replace current fiat currencies or not, precious metals are poised to retain or even increase in value. This is why central banks and mega-asset managers like BlackRock are moving much of their holdings to precious metals.
As a Christian company, Genesis Gold Group has maintained a perfect 5 out of 5 rating with the Better Business Bureau. Their faith-driven values allow them to help Americans protect their life’s savings without the gimmicks used by most precious metals companies.

Weissmann, the shysters’ shyster, former aide to the Deep State’s Deep Stater, Robert Swan Truesdale Mueller III, grandnephew (by marriage, not genetics) of fired CIA deputy director, Richard Bissell (probably the real dude behind any “Mission Impossible” schemes, whether they worked or not; the Agency resuscitated his old scheme when they went Crypto AG) —— Bissell was the architect behind the Marshall Plan after World War II, so he was no slouch in the planning and tactics department! The Truesdale fortune derived from the Rockefeller family — something pertaining to blowing up the oil refineries of competitors, so a railroad ownership was their reward!
Mueller was also related to a former chairman of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco (FRBSF), a Mr. Swan, when $16 million in securities disappeared from there, about five months prior to the assassination in Dallas in November of 1963! Wonder if that $$$ was transferred to CIA paymaster, Guy Banister, in New Orleans, who had his Cuban assistant/attorney, Maurice Gatlin, deliver a hefty payment to the OAS, the fascist paramilitary group based out of Lisbon who offered mercenaries and assassins for hire! Attorney Galtin would later perish in a suspicious fall from a hotel in Puerto Rico!
Best of luck and success to the Honorable Mr. Passantino!

Wiessmann needs to be slapped down and slapped down hard. He is one of the corrupt ones who tried to frame President Trump.
