Notes during a 2017 meeting between Department of Justice officials and FBI leadership show the federal law enforcement agency seemingly panicked and went to great lengths to cover up its spying on then-candidate Donald Trump.
Attorneys for former Hillary Clinton campaign attorney Michael Sussmann released the notes ahead of their client’s trial in an attempt to clear him on charges that he lied to the FBI.
The notes, released Sunday, came from a March 6, 2017, meeting held two days after Trump tweeted, “Terrible! Just found out that [Barack] Obama had my ‘wires tapped’ in Trump Tower just before the victory. Nothing found. This is McCarthyism!”
FBI leadership was seemingly alarmed by the tweet.
Then-DOJ official Mary McCord wrote at the meeting that the FBI is “trying to determine what is behind POTUS tweets.”
Sussmann’s attorneys introduced the notes because FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe wrote that Sussmann provided allegations of Trump’s collusion with Russia as a lawyer “on behalf of his client.” Sussmann told the FBI six months before this that he was simply acting as a good samaritan. more
but no penalty for fellating-biden-inc.
The FBI has become the thing it was created to destroy.
