According to a buried House Intelligence Committee report just declassified by DNI Tulsi Gabbard, President Barack Obama and others reportedly had serious concerns about the health of 2016 Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton – some of the information Russia had but did not reveal at the time.
Commentator Charlie Kirk points out on X that in the final days of the 2016 campaign Russia "had huge amounts of potential anti-Clinton dirt that it sat on." This included:
Notes Kirk: "If Russia was really all-in on supporting Trump and hurting Clinton, it would have leaked this information in October 2016 when her lead in the RCP average slipped to just +1.3. Instead, Russia didn't – completely debunking the core assumptions of the Russia hoax.
"Rather than admit they were wrong, Brennan's CIA buried the info and manufactured a completely alternative reality to undermine the legitimacy of President Trump."
The declassified report adds to documents made public Friday that suggest that the Obama team intentionally hid information proving Russia was not involved in swaying the 2016 election and instead posited the opposite in hopes of sabotaging the incoming Trump administration.
