Did senior Obama administration officials bury a report that Hillary Clinton’s private email server was breached?

Former U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia Joe diGenova said former President Barack Obama ordered officials to bury the report to protect Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign.

During an interview on Fox News, DiGenova told host Tucker Carlson that FBI agent Peter Strzok and then-Director of National Intelligence Jim Clapper ignored possible hacks “with the consent of the president (Obama).”

DiGenova was referring to a report that Strzok and Clapper refused to act after being warned Clinton’s private email server was breached by “hostile actors.”

Strzok was first alerted about an irregularity in the metadata of Clinton’s server in 2016, which stated that it had been breached and/or hacked by a foreign actor.

DiGenova said he believes Strzok and Clapper were explicitly ordered by Obama not to take action because they feared it would have derailed her chances of winning the election.

Strzok was a senior buy accutane us counterintelligence agent at the FBI before being demoted after an internal review found that he had been sending anti-Trump text messages to Lisa Page.

Page is a senior lawyer at the FBI with whom he was having an affair.

DiGenova said the report about this “cover-up” was so powerful and damning against Obama that it warranted appointing a second special counsel.

He agreed with Republican Reps. Trey Gowdy and Bob Goodlatte that the Department of Justice should name a second special counsel to investigate the Obama administration’s alleged FISA court abuses.

If Obama gave the order to stand down on a potential breach, he put the U.S. national security at risk and allowed hostile actors to exploit a vulnerability Clinton created.
