A stunning new report from the CIA just confirmed what many of us have known all along — that former CIA Director John Brennan and others deliberately tried to frame President Donald Trump during the Russia collusion hoax.
Fox News legal analyst Gregg Jarrett laid it out clearly in a new op-ed, backing up current CIA Director John Ratcliffe’s conclusion that the entire operation was politically motivated. Ratcliffe recently released a report showing how Brennan, former FBI Director James Comey, and other Obama-era political operatives worked behind the scenes to include the debunked Steele dossier in their 2016 intelligence report.
The Steele dossier, a pile of unverified claims cooked up by former British spy Christopher Steele, was bought and paid for by Hillary Clinton’s campaign through the opposition research firm Fusion GPS. It’s also been alleged that much of the phony intelligence was funneled through Bruce Ohr, a DOJ official whose wife just happened to work for Fusion GPS at the time.
Jarrett doesn’t mince words. “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.”
He says Brennan, Comey, and former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper “plotted to smear Trump with what is surely the dirtiest trick in political history.”
