FULL TITLE: Former Obama Advisor: Investigating Origins of Russia Probe 'Waste of Time,' 'They Will Find Nothing'
WASHINGTON Ben Rhodes, former deputy national security advisor to President Obama, said U.S. Attorney General Bill Barr and the Justice Department will find nothing that shows former President Obama or White House staff had any political involvement in the origins of the Trump campaign and Russia collusion investigation during Obama's time in office.
Rhodes was asked if he thinks the DOJ will find anything during the investigation.
No, no, I cannot be clear enough about this. We didnt even know there was an FBI investigation of Trump. I didnt. President Obama didnt, like, we actually abided by the firewalls between if there were any investigations that took place, those decisions were made in the Justice Department, in the FBI, not in the White House, Rhodes said about the DOJ probe after a discussion at Georgetown University about his book The World as It Is: A Memoir of the Obama White House on Thursday evening.
They will find nothing that suggests there was any political or White House involvement in any of that. Literally, I learned about the FBI investigation of Trump as a private citizen in the frickin Washington Post. So, you have to understand, we actually abided by the longstanding practice of the White House not getting involved in that kind of stuff, he added.
The DOJ Inspector General is currently investigating the origins of the Russia probe during the Obama years. The final redacted Mueller report was released last week.

Good ole “Clap ON” “Clap OFF” Clapper.... the crapper. Runs his mouth again— confirming the complete knowledge of the WH security apparat in the decision to surveil... everybody. The concurrence of Lowretta Lynch, Susan Rice (and her assistant Ben Rhodes... who damn sure knew! And probably commed it to his brother at CBS). We’re coming for you Benny ole buddy— you lying putrescent prepuce. You and Stelter look the same— a real pair of ....
Obamas fabulist spins some more lies.
Good, the Obamunists are finally on the defense. We know this goes straight to the O himself because he issued the last-minute executive order that purported to legalize their illegal activity.
Filthy pigs are up to their eyes in sh## cant wait for the perp walk
My bet is Trump has a bunch of perp-walks in October 2020.
You see their lips moving.
Ben Rhodes doh protest too much. Hes scared shitless.
This guy won’t wake up one day.
He was lying then, and he is lying now.
He’ll be lying FRom a SuperMax Real Soon Now!
I have nothing.
The origin of the Russian Hooker Pee story comes from an investigation into Hillary and her desecrating some room that Obama was going to use. It didn’t involve Russian Hookers, or pee. That part likely came from the CHANS. All the spies watch the CHANS, and they pick up some interesting stuff. Anyway, She was mad about losing to Obama and she vented that hate.
Barry found out and got even. When Benghazi happened, he ‘stranded her’. He refused to sign the order to allow cross border military action. He didn’t like what she was doing over there. It was what she wanted, not what he wanted.
The Russian Collusion story came from an investigation into the Clinton-Russia Uranium Sale.
All this was edited by Steele and others and combined into a dossier with the target as Trump. This was done with the help of Obama, whom Hillary had told, if she goes down, so does he.
See, it’s nothing.
Sounds worried.
This guy really needs to be punished.
I’m going to presume the exact opposite of what this man says is actually reality.
Spoken like a true traitor!
Obama knew a lot of “everything” since his Intel chiefs were liberals/leftists/”former” Communist sympathizer.
Tell me that you would trust anything that Obama, Rhoades, Jarrett, Dunn, Rice, Powers, Kerry, Biden, Hillary Clinton, etc. say.
Dominoes start falling...
Strzok/Page texts show otherwise echo chamber Rhoades - “The WH is running this. They want to know everything we are doing.”
By the sound of Ben Rhodes’ squirming I think we are over the target
Dont repukelicans owe it to this country to find out? Its what the demonrats are telling us about their load of horse pucky.
Well, isn’t that interesting...
Saying something controversial to raise chatter for his book, I suppose.
