Clapper's Controversial Remarks on Russia Probe

Jim Comey and I are part of the group that,

uh, were tasked by President Obama to re- put together all the

reporting we had on the Russian interference.

Former Director of National Intelligence, James Clapper, appears to admit the

Russia probe was initiated by none other than former President Barack Obama.

In a recent CNN interview, Clapper discussed the findings of Special

Counsel

Robert Mueller, who found no collusion between Russians

and President

Trump. Clapper suggested he knew there was no collusion as early

as in March of 2017, but that didn't stop the

mainstream media from spinning false collusion narratives.

And I consistently said we didn't have the evidence at the time contemporaneously,

and it was my great hope that the Mueller investigation would

resolve

that once and for all, and apparently it did.

This is not the first time Clapper makes controversial remarks about the alleged

use of national intelligence for political purposes.

In his Senate testimony back in 2013, Clapper said the

government does not collect data on millions of Americans as part of its

foreign intelligence surveillance program.

Those claims were later proven by Congress Republicans as untrue.

Does the NSA collect any type of data at

all on millions or hundreds of millions of Americans?

No, sir.

It does not?

Not wittingly.

When the truth came out, Clapper claimed he didn't understand the

question.

Meanwhile, Republican lawmakers say the abuse of FISA

courts by Obama

officials allowed to spy on Carter Page, a key

aide to the 2016 Trump campaign. Those FISA warrants,

along with the debunked Steele dossier, laid the foundation of what would

become the Russia probe.

The Russia witch hunt was a plan by those who

lost the election to try and illegally

regain power by framing innocent

Americans, many, many of them. They suffered

with an elaborate hoax.

Speaking of the Steele dossier, Clapper had something to do with the

Democrat-funded opposition research as well.

Reports claim the House Intel Committee found Clapper leaked the dossier

to CNN during the transition period of late 2016,

early 2017. The efforts became known as a

Democrat insurance policy, which Republicans now want

investigated.

Mr. Mueller thoroughly investigated the Trump

campaign.

You cannot say that about the other side of the

story.

And what I hope Mr. Barr will do is understand, for the country's

sake, appoint somebody outside the current

system

to look into these allegations.

And President Trump and his attorney, Rudy Giuliani, agree early

stages of the Russia probe must be looked into.

But recent revelations suggest the debunked Russia hoax

appears to be the greatest political swindle in US history.
