‘WE’VE GOT THE SMOKING GUN’: Rep. Issa on new Clinton documents

TOMI LAHREN HERE TO REACT BUT FIRST, THIS. >> THERE’S A LOT TO INVESTIGATE, AND I’M PERSONALLY VERY GRATEFUL SOMEBODY OF THE STATURE OF ROBERT MUELLER WOULD BE THERE CONDUCTING THIS INVESTIGATION. THERE’S A LOT OF SMOKE AND WHETHER OR NOT THERE’S FIRE, WE NEED TO FIGURE IT OUT. THEY INTERFERED AND DID SO TO HELP HIM AND HURT ME. >> OTHER EXPERTS ARE SAYING THE RUSSIANS ARE RELEASING THESE E-MAILS FOR THE PURPOSE OF ACTUALLY HELPING DONALD TRUMP. >> DO YOU BELIEVE PRESIDENT TRUMP IS A LEGITIMATE PRESIDENT? >> WHAT I BELIEVE THERE’S NO QUESTION THE OUTCOME OF THIS ELECTION WAS AFFECTED BY THE RUSSIAN INTERFERENCE. LIZ: THAT WAS HILLARY CLINTON AND DEBBY WASSERMANN-SHALT AND-Z PUSHING THE RUSSIA SHAM AND NOT JUST THAT HILLARY CLINTON PERSONALLY APPROVED THE PLAN TO MANUFACTURE TRUMP RUSSIA TO SABOTAGE TRUMP BUT NOW ABOUT HILLARY CLINTON PURPOSELY DOING THIS TO DISTRACT FROM REPORTS IN THE INVESTIGATION INTO WHETHER THE CLINTON FOUNDATION DONORS GOT PREF LEN ISSUE ACCESS TO HILLARY CLINTON — PREFERENTIAL ACCESS TO HILLARY CLINTON. FORMER CHAIRMAN OF HOUSE OVERSIGHT UNDER THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION, DURING THAT DNC CHAIR WASSERMANN SCHULTZ INVESTIGATING WHY IT WAS DELETED FROM HER E-MAIL AND AP, ASSOCIATED PRESS, REPORTED IN 2016 THAT MORE THAN HALF OF NONGOVERNMENT INDIVIDUALS WHO MET WITH HILLARY CLINTON AS OBAMA’S SECRETARY OF STATE DONATED AND GIVEN TO THE CLINTON FOUNDATION. IT WAS PUSH-BACK ON AP AND THAT HILLARY CLINTON DID IN THE ACTION AND SATISFYING THOSE DONORS AND MAKING OF THOSE ALL PULLING TOGETHER. >> SADLY NOT SINCE THE WATER GATE SCANDAL OR BEFORE THAT, LIZ, HAVE WE EVER HAD SUCH A PLAN IN THIS CASE A PLAN TO ACCUSE YOUR OPPONENT OF THAT IN WHICH YOU’RE DOING, WHICH IS WEAPONNIZING GOVERNMENT IN A WAY THAT HURTS HIM BEFORE AND AFTER THE ELECTION. IT WAS BRILLIANT FOR THE STATE OF SECRET GOING FOR THEM. GOING TO LAUNCH THEM AND THE INDICATE OF PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA WITH THE CLINTON FOUNDATION RUINING HIS LEGACY AND HOW DO YOU STOP THIS FUTURE. >> PRESIDENT OBAMA GOING TO LOOK STILL PRESIDENT AND HILLARY CLINTON WAS ESSENTIALLY ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAILS AND HE TOWARDED LEGITIMATE OVERSIGHT AND PUSH-BACK AND KEEPING EVERYTHING IN ADDITION TO HILLARY CLINTON’S LEGAL DEFENSES NOT GUILTY TO USE GOVERNMENT E-MAIL AND NOT TURN THEM IN BUT IN FACT MAKE THEM SEPARATE. BUT, LIZ, THERE WERE DOUBLE STANDARDS THROUGHOUT THAT PROCESS AND SOME CANNOT BE TOLERATED IN THE FUTURE. YOU CAN’T HAVE PRIVATE LAWYERS DECIDE WHAT’S TURNED OVER ON A SEPARATED FROM. HILLARY CLINTON AFTER THE FACT I’LL TELL YOU WHAT YOU’LL GET. NO, AND QUITE FRANKLY. KIND OF ACTIVITY WEAPONNIZING GOVERNMENT THAT PRESIDENT OBAMA CLEARLY WAS PART OF BUT HILLARY CLINTON’S CAMPAIGN LED AND HE KNEW IT AND THAT MAKES BOTH OF THEM CONSPIRATORS IN THE GREATEST POLITICAL ATTEMPT TO FORWARD AN ELECTION IN OUR LIFETIME, WHICH WAS 2016. PRESIDENCY NOT GOING TO BE TARNISHED AND RUSSIA GATE AND GOING TO PUSH THROUGHOUT HIS ENTIRE FOUR YEARS. LIZ: DEBBY WASSERMANN-SCHULTZ AND BARACK MUHAMMAD ALI GOING FOR THEM AND DURHAM SAYS TOP AJ SULLIVAN CANNOT RECALL ANYONE ARTICULATING THE STRATEGY OR PLAN TO DISTRACT ATTENTION AWAY FROM CLINTON, BUT HE COULD NOT RULE OUT THE POSSIBILITY THAT HILLARY CLINTON DID CON CONDUCT AND CAME UP WITH — CONCOCT AND CAME UP WITH TRUMP RUSSIA AND THERE WAS NO COLLUSION WITH TRUMP AND RUSSIA TO HELP HIM WIN IN 2016. >> THAT WAS EXACTLY THE CASE. THERE WAS NO THERE THERE AND MADE IT AND TRIED TO STOP HIM AND THEN THE REWARD FOUR YEARS LATER FOR THIS CONTINUED HOAX ABOUT A HOAX WAS IN FACT PEOPLE LIKE JAKE SULLIVAN GETTING ANOTHER FOUR YEARS IN THE WHITE HOUSE LEADING TO SECONDARY DISASTERS SUCH AS WITHDRAWAL FROM AFGHANISTAN. LIZ: CONGRESSMAN, PLEASE STICK AROUND AND PLEASE LISTEN TO THIS. >> DID YOU TELL HIM THE STEEL DOSSIER WAS FINANCED BY HIS POLITICAL OPPONENTS? >> NO, I DIDN’T THINK I USED TERM STEEL DOSSIER BUT TALKED ABOUT ADDITIONAL MATERIAL. >> DID HE HAVE A RIGHT TO KNOW THAT? >> THAT IT WAS FINANCED BY HIS POLITICAL OPPONENTS? I DON’T KNOW THE ANSWER TO THAT. IT WASN’T NECESSARY FOR MY GOAL, WHICH IS TO ALERT HIM THAT WE HAD THIS INFORMATION LIZ: THAT WAS FORMER FBI DIRECTOR JAMES CONEY NOT MAKING A LOT OF SENSE THERE TELLING ABC GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS IN 2018 HE DIDN’T THINK IT WAS NECESSARY TO TELL HILLARY CAMPAIGN AND DNC FUNDED AND PAID FOR THE DE-BUNT AND DE-FUNDED STEEL DOSSIER TO GO AFTER TRUMP RUSSIA. CONGRESSMAN, TALK TO US ABOUT THIS. HE DIDN’T THINK IT WAS NECESSARY TO TELL HIM THAT THE DNC PAID FOR IT AND USE THAT HAD SAME STEEL DOSSIER AS GROUNDS TO GET PFIZER WIRETAPS AND THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN INCLUDING CARTER PAGE. >> CHAIRMAN JORDAN, MYSELF, AND OTHERS TRYING TO GET FURTHER REFORMED IN FIE SOFT AND AVERAGE AND TRYING AGAIN IN — FISA AND CIA AND FBI WORKING IN COLLUSION AND CONSISTENTLY ABLE TO PLAY WHAT I CALL IN THE BANKS AND WHAT I MEAN BY THAT, THEY’LL TELL YOU SOMETHING AND THEN SAY WELL, I BRIEFED PEOPLE ON THAT. WHAT THEY BRIEFED YOU ON WAS SOME WORDS AND DIDN’T SHOW YOU EVERYTHING IN THE BAG. YOU OF COURSE COULDN’T ASK ALL THE RIGHT QUESTIONS TO GET THEM TO REMOVE IT. THAT’S BEEN THE HIDE THE TRUTH IN A LOT OF AREAS AND ONE OF THE REASONS THAT AMERICANS NEED TO DEMAND FURTHER PFIZER REFORM AND THIS SECRECY EVEN FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES NEVER HAPPENS AGAIN. ANNEX LOADED WITH RUSSIAN DISINFORMATION AND SAYING IT’S POSSIBLE, IT COULD BE AND NO DEFINITIVE PROOF THIS HAPPENED THERE. MONTHS BEFORE THE FBI LAUNCHED HURRICANE PROBE AND IN AUGUST OF 2016, WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF FORMER CIA DIRECTOR JOHN BRENNAN BRIEFING BARACK OBAMA, JOE BIDEN AND JAMES COMEY ABOUT HILLARY CLINTON APPROVING THE “USE OF THIS PLAN BY FOREIGN POLICY ADVISER TO VILIFY TRUMP WITH TRUMP RUSSIA”. THE CLINTON CAMPAIGN PLAN WAS TO GET EVERYBODY TO LEAK TO THE MEDIA. >> THE U.S. MEDIA WANTED IT. ONE OF THE REASONS THIS HAS WORKED IS ORGANIZATIONS LIKE THE NEW YORK TIMES HAVE BEEN PERFECTLY WILLING TO SAY, WELL, THAT’S DOUBTFUL. THAT COULD BE RUSSIA KEN POLCARI KNOW AS PEOPLE ARE SAYING THIS COULD BE RUSSIAN MISINFORMATION IN THE TURNOVERS AND HAM REPORT LOOKING AT ACTUAL CONSPIRACY AND DARN WELL DOCUMENTS AND THEN IT’S MISINFORMATION. THIS SUN FORTUNATELY THE HAND IN THE COOKIE JAR AND PEOPLE DENYING THAT THERE’S COOKIES OR EVEN A COOKIE JAR. WE’VE GOT THESE SMOKING GUN TO USE ANOTHER METAPHOR AND TIME TO ACTUALLY BOTH HOLD PEOPLE ACCOUNTABLE AND MAKE REAL CHANGES IN THE LAW TO NEVE

  6. blah blah blah Still gnawing on that bone we see. Epstein files still not released. But creepy old felon pedo was quick to bribe Ghilane Maxwell to buy her silence. We do remember that Hillary was the winner of the popular vote for the election of 2016 .

  14. Why oh WHY DID ALL THOSE PEOPLE from ALL OVER THE WORLD goooo to Clinton daughters wedding??? Who does that??? Under Clinton Foundation permise DONORS???

  17. Blah blah blah……
    We've known all this for YEARS!!!
    The QUESTION is…..
    What will be done about it??
    My guess is……
    NOTHING……..
    Other than spotty exposure in the media such as this. No criminal charges will be filed…..
    I hope I'm proven wrong.

  18. She will never be prosecuted. Bla bla bla. This is distraction. Put it in spotlight when she actually gets in trouble. Won't happen.

  21. Nothing will ever happen to anyone in regards to any of this. it’s always the same BS. lots of talk but no real balls. a bunch of blowhards with small hands.

  22. I lost all respect for Darrell Issa when he let Lois Lerner of the IRS walk right out of his congressional hearing on the IRS abuses. Let's get on with this BS and see the handcuffs come out and some perp walks. I'm not holding my breath.

  23. Keep kicking the can down the road…just continue rehashing the story over and over with each 'new' piece of proof..until all parties involved are long gone so that no actual accountability ever occurs. We all knew this happened as it was happening. This isnt shocking..its frustrating.

  25. You see how Mob Democrats do execute fraud inside the institutions they used us if they are law and the Judges and owners of America 50 states weaponizing our law to favor their Agenda this is bigger than Water Gate Scandal and it “TREASON “ welcome to the Federal Prison ⚖️✅🎈

  27. 😂😂😂And again-as usual-A lot of talk and no action by Trump or anyone. The government elections are an ongoing play to temporarily appease the citizens. Left wing,right wing same old bird. Trump made a lot of “promises “to get elected,as usual,but gas and grocery prices haven’t done anything but increase. Just like when it was Joe Bidens turn to play ruler except Biden was blatant. Now these tariffs will have the same affects.

  28. Is this the same smoking gun they claimed they had after the 2020 elections? We hear this time and time again. We've got the smoking gun. We're going to release the kraken. But nothing ever happens. The reports fade away, and no one ends up in prison. Noting ever changes.

  30. I’m always saying arrest these people already. It’s a pattern of behavior across history that has to be put on trial. Looking at some of the moves people are making behind the scenes, retribution might actually be coming. Obama’s are getting divorced which means someone in the unit is weak and exposed. Some high level people are doing interviews and layering up. IMO if they’re talking at all, they’re not high up on the dynamics of things. Everyone else is keeping their mouth shut.

    Same for old and a lot of new media. So many people who pass themselves off as pundits are ignoring all this. And they have to😂, they’re shills who took money or access; both of which are bribes. Or they worked directly with or for these people, can’t go bad mouthing the boss. We want to see waves of arrests but the oceans are definitely rumbling. The more that comes out and the quieter it gets, the more explosive it all might be when it all collapses in. And it is collapsing. 😂

  32. Then after what they did during President Trump first term, they placed Biden with 81 million votes. Election fraud. Then after that they persecuted him out of office, so he would never run again. Never seen anything like this in my lifetime. So glad he is in office now. After both Bush's, Clinton, BHO, Biden…32 years…unbelievable. President Trump 🇺🇸🙏🇺🇸👍💯

  34. Way . . . way . . . worse than anything Nixon did. Hilary Clinton made knowingly false allegations that directly led to an FBI investigation of Trump that FBI leadership, Comey, knew was politically motivated and false. FBI did not investigate Hilary's election interference and fraud on the American people. Repeat, the FBI did not protect the American people. They investigated and made public statements that furthered the Democrat's deceit. Congressional Democrats knew the accusations against Trump were political fabrications and yet they used Congressional committees to perpetuate the slander and lies to subvert public sentiment against Trump. These actions interfered with and impacted the 2016, 2018, 2020, 2022, and 2024 elections as the lies were repeated over and over by a duplicitous press that cared little for the truth. Note that the press continues to avoid reporting the truth. It becomes increasingly obvious why that is. But this hoax is a perfect example of how Democrats feel they have the Freedom to destroy those who might think differently. Freedom is not without limit or constraint, but is tempered by Rule of Law and our individual and collective responsibility to everyone our actions touch and to our community. Freedom constrained by law and responsibility is Liberty. Hilary's irresponsible and criminal conduct and the Democrat conspiracy that perpetuated slander and knowing false accusations was an attack on American Liberty itself.

  35. Trump's campaign operatives met over 140 times with Russian spies to aid Russia's efforts to influence the 2016 election, which THEY DID, and trump benefited. and your smoking gun isn't smoking.

  36. Nothing new here. I guess it’s ok to keep talking about it but something should have been done already. The fact nothing has happened makes the entirety of Washington look bad and undermines what little confidence we had left. Sad our country has come to this.

  37. I don't hear many people talking about this, but Obama giving $1.7b to Iran is Treason, Whoever, owing allegiance to the United States, "adheres to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort within the United States or elsewhere, is guilty of treason". Yes, it was said that this payment was a settlement of a decades-old dispute regarding a failed arms deal from the 1970s. A 40+ year old dispute that has never been brought up until Obama started sending them money, a WELL KNOWN enemy of the USA. That is aiding and adhering to our enemy!

  39. You can already tell this is not going to be anything more than a us versus them because they are blasting it in gop news. If Anyone of significance was going to be prosecuted then this would be kept under wraps so as to not tarnish real criminal investigations. Such a joke.

  40. We know Obama ain't the genius that came up with it, he lost his law license before he left the school he got it at saying he was a professor when he was just a teacher, definitely not very smart

  41. Obama disbarred lawyer, Hillary Clinton disbarred lawyer, the list is very long in our government and that is the biggest problem, they should not be allowed in a government job
