Not only did President Obama know about the investigation, he seems to have pushed it from the very beginning.
But don't take our word for it. Here's what Obama's Director of National Intelligence, the nation's former spy master, James Clapper, told CNN's Anderson Cooper:
"If it weren't for President Obama we might not have done the intelligence community assessment that we did that set up a whole sequence of event which are still unfolding today, including Special Counsel (Robert) Mueller's investigation. President Obama is responsible for that. It was he who tasked us to do that intelligence community assessment in the first place."
As Kimberley Strassel wrote in the Wall Street Journal, Brennan in particular has revealed himself to be a total anti-Trump partisan to an extent that's shocking for a public official. His animus is raw and deep, as his actions suggest.
"The record shows (Brennan) went on to use his position — as head of the most powerful spy agency in the world — to assist Hillary Clinton's campaign (and keep his job)," Kimberley Strassel wrote last week in the Wall Street Journal.
Brennan's manic partisanship could be seen last week in an over-the-top, bizarrely unhinged tweet following Trump's press conference after his mini-summit with Vladimir Putin. Brennan called Trump's remarks "nothing short of treasonous" and said they exceeded "the threshold of 'high crimes & misdemeanors.' "
While Brennan's hate for the GOP nominee may be public now, it wasn't in the summer of 2016. His evidence for collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia was so weak neither the FBI nor Clapper would commit to it.
As the release late last week of the FBI's FISA court application used to spy on former Trump aide Carter Page indicates, the dossier was used extensively for the application. That's contrary to what the FBI had maintained.
Moreover, an influential article written by Michael Isikoff detailing the dossier's contents and Harry Reid's letter to the FBI were likewise used to get approval for the FISA court application.
What do they all have in common? They all go back to the same phony dossier, written by former British spy Christopher Steele for Fusion GPS. It was never verified or validated by the FBI. It was bought and paid for by Hillary Clinton and her pals at the Democratic National Committee, solely to smear Trump.
your temper tantrum is pointless, go to a paded room and stay there
right, i forgot facts are pointless to trumpshills
again, it's not 'framing' or partisan if Trump is a scumbag doing illegal shit and the FBI wants to do it's job to investigate. stop shilling for a traitorous criminal and you won't have problems
actually they are pointless to you, that's why you rage and belong in a paded room, now go and stay there until you have something intelligent to say about the points and the facts stated in the posted article
no, he didn't, the point of the article was that they never had a case against Trump colluding with the Russians to steal the presidential election of 2016 - they still don't - and chose to spy on Trump's campaign, in order to help Hillary, using unverified political smears ordered and paid for by Hillary and the dems, while disguising the nature of their sources from the FISA judge
the Obama administration has abused the courts, the intelligence services, the FISA process, the FBI and the State Department, nice! for a guy you wanted to put on Mount Rushmore
