We knew Hillary created the dossier and now we have proof that Barack was calling the shots and the documents to prove it. Declassified documents revealing former CIA director John Brennan briefed then president Obama on Hillary Clinton's purported plan to smear then candidate Trump in 2016, adding to what the national intelligence director has already declassified on this issue and raising more questions tonight about how much more of this will come out before election day. Good evening, Mike. Brett, good evening. These are handwritten notes from former CIA director John Brennan written according to a source familiar after Brennan briefed president Obama. At one point, Brennan writes, quote, approved by Hillary Clinton, a proposal from one of her foreign policy advisors to vilify Donald Trump by stirring up a scandal claiming interference by the Russian security service. The notes say on 28 of July in the margin Brennan writes POTUS, but that section of the notes are redacted. Then it says any evidence of collaboration between Trump campaign and Russia. The remainder of the notes are redacted, except in the margins where it says JC, Dennis, and Susan. That could be referring to former FBI director James Comey, former Obama chief of staff Dennis McDonough, and former national security advisor Susan Rice. The CIA sent a memo to former FBI director James Comey and Peter Strzok writing, quote, the following information is provided for the exclusive use of your bureau for background investigative action or lead purposes as appropriate. One example, the CIA includes, quote, an exchange redacted discussing U.S. presidential candidate Hillary Clinton's approval of a plan concerning U.S. presidential candidate Donald Trump and Russian hackers hampering U.S. elections as a means of distracting the public from the her use of a private email server. At a hearing before the Senate Judiciary Committee last week, Comey was pressed on what he did with information provided by the CIA. Did you open an investigation? I don't know what that refers to. As I said earlier, that does not ring any bells with me when I read that. You did not receive any investigative referral of this nature. I don't remember it. I don't, I don't remember receiving anything that's described in that letter. We knew Hillary created the dossier and now we have proof that Barack was calling the shots and the documents to prove it.
