Obama’s former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper colluded with CNN over the debunked Trump-Russia dossier.
This news comes from the newly released House Intel report, which also concludes that there was no collusion between President Trump and Russia.
This is interesting to note since Clapper DENIED he spoke to the media.
Former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper gave inconsistent testimony to a House panel about his contacts with CNN’s Jake Tapper regarding the infamous Steele dossier, according to a report released by congressional Republicans on Friday.
The report, published by the GOP side of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, shows that Clapper acknowledged speaking with Tapper about the dossier while he was still serving as director of national intelligence.
That is in direct conflict with Clapper’s claim to CNN’s Don Lemon in March that he did not interact with the media prior to leaving the Obama administration on Jan. 20, 2017. (RELATED: Comey Memo: Pressure From CNN Prompted Dossier Briefing)
“I didn’t have any contact with media until after I left the government on the 20th of January, so I don’t quite understand, at least what I’ve read, that somehow I leaked about the dossier,” Clapper told Lemon in the interview.
“So you didn’t leak anything about the dossier to any media?” Lemon asked.
“No, not — I mean, I talked about it after I left the government, but not during that period, and certainly not between the 6th of January and the 10th when the president-elect himself talked about it.” (RELATED: James Clapper Tells Don Lemon He Did Not Talk About Dossier With Media)
