Karoline Leavitt and Tulsi Gabbard Address Allegations of Obama Administration's Role in Russia Collusion Narrative

Published | Video Starts at 16:05

On December 5 of 2016, the FBI and ODNI gave the House Intelligence Committee its first post election classified briefing in which there was no mention of Putin aspiring to elect Trump by either agency. The Presidential Daily brief drafted on December 8th of 2016 stated that no Russian or criminal actors impacted vote counts. This document was pulled just hours before it was to be published due to quote unquote new guidance. If it had been published, it would have been briefed to both President Obama and and President Elect Donald Trump. (16:05–16:15)
