Russian Collusion Hoax was bogus attempt to frame Trump

 Trending Politics:

A new report by the CIA makes clear that its prior leader sought to “frame” President Donald Trump with slanted conclusions in the Russia collusion hoax, one legal analyst wrote on Wednesday.

Attorney Gregg Jarrett agreed with current CIA Director John Ratcliffe that “political motive” played a role in former Director John Brennan’s intervention in a 2016 report exploring baseless connections between Trump’s campaign and Russian operatives to influence the election. Ratcliffe last week released a bombshell report claiming that Brennan, former FBI Director James Comey, and other “political appointees” went to great lengths to include the discredited Steele dossier in their original report about Russiagate.

Christopher Steele, a former British intelligence officer, was hired by Fusion GPS, an opposition research firm working for Hillary Clinton’s campaign, to investigate rumors of connections between Trump and Russia. It has been alleged by Trump and allies that much of his unverified intelligence came from Bruce Ohr, a former U.S. Justice Department official married to Nellie Ohr, who worked for Fusion GPS at the time of the election.

“The dossier was garbage, of course. The FBI largely debunked it before Trump was even sworn in and fired its author, Christopher Steele, for lying as a confidential human source. But the bureau concealed those inconvenient facts under then-Director James Comey and deftly exploited the document as a cudgel to bludgeon the newly elected president,” Jarrett writes for Fox News.

Brennan, Comey, and former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper “plotted to smear Trump with what is surely the dirtiest trick in political history,” he adds.

There should be consequences for those responsible for this political fraud.  It was a sophisticated attempt to overthrow an election. Some of the same people were responsible for putting Biden in office.

New CIA Memo Could Prove That Brennan and Comey Committed Perjury

...

Earlier this week, we learned that the FBI opened criminal investigations into former CIA Director John Brennan and former FBI Director James Comey over their roles in orchestrating the Trump-Russia collusion hoax. Both men are now under scrutiny for allegedly making false statements to Congress and potentially engaging in deeper misconduct tied to the origins of the scheme. A newly surfaced CIA memo may offer damning evidence, strongly suggesting that both Brennan and Comey committed perjury.

Brennan and Comey both claimed under oath that the Steele Dossier was irrelevant to the Intelligence Community Assessment's (ICA) findings. Brennan repeatedly told Congress, “It was not in any way used as a basis for the Intelligence Community Assessment that was done. It was not.” He even claimed, “I had not even read the document.” Other Obama-era officials echoed these denials, including former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, who stated, “The IC has not made any judgment that the information in this document is reliable, and we did not rely upon it in any way for our conclusions.”

But the new CIA memo, which Director John Ratcliffe commissioned, exposes these claims as, at best, misleading and, at worst, outright perjury. The memo reveals that Brennan actively pushed to include the Steele Dossier in the ICA, despite internal warnings from senior CIA analysts.
