Docs: Clinton Team Denied Knowledge Of Russia Hoax Despite Email Saying She ‘Approved’ Plan
The newly declassified annex to the Durham report purportedly shows that Hillary Clinton approved the Russia collusion hoax but then lied to the FBI about her knowledge of the plot.
Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley released on Thursday the declassified appendix to Special Counsel John Durham’s 2023 report. The Durham report vindicated President Donald Trump and others who insisted the FBI acted improperly when it opened its investigation into the Trump campaign over allegations of collusion with Russia.
The declassified annex includes two Russian intelligence memoranda that purportedly contain information about Obama’s involvement in what is now known as the Russia collusion hoax, as well as private conversations between members of Clinton’s campaign.
In June 2016 the Democratic National Committee confirmed that its server had been hacked, allegedly by Russian military intelligence groups. Among the materials purportedly obtained by hackers were emails.
Leonard Benardo, of George Soros’ Open Society Foundations, purportedly said in one version of a July 25, 2016, email that the hacking story was important, and “politicization is on the table.” Benardo then went on to suggest that Julianne Smith, Clinton’s foreign policy adviser, was concocting a plan to “demonize Putin and Trump.” (Read more from “Docs: Clinton Team Denied Knowledge Of Russia Hoax Despite Email Saying She ‘Approved’ Plan” HERE)
