"That should distract people from her own missing email, especially if the affair goes to the Olympic level."
Newly declassified intelligence documents released Thursday revealed Hillary Clinton personally approved a campaign plan to “smear” then-candidate Donald Trump with false Russian collusion claims to distract from her email scandal during the 2016 presidential race.
Special counsel John Durham uncovered the information during his multi-year investigation into intelligence activities during the 2016 election.
The intelligence, released Monday by Senator Chuck Grassley (R-IA), came from two memos obtained by the Obama administration containing “confidential conversations” between members of the DNC and George Soros’ Open Society Foundations before the 2016 election.
According to the declassified files, Clinton personally approved a plan proposed by her foreign policy advisor, Julianne Smith, to “smear Donald Trump by magnifying the scandal tied to the intrusion by the Russian special services in the pre-election process to benefit the Republican candidate.” Smith was later appointed to serve as Ambassador to NATO under President Joe Biden.
One stunning email dated July 27, 2016, stated: “HRC [Hillary Clinton] approved Julia’s [sic] idea about Trump and Russian hackers hampering U.S. elections. That should distract people from her own missing email, especially if the affair goes to the Olympic level.”
“The point is making the Russian play a U.S. domestic issue,” the email continued, adding, “In absence of direct evidence, Crowdstrike and ThreatConnect will supply the media, and GRU [Russia’s foreign intelligence arm] will hopefully carry on to give more facts.”
The Clinton campaign’s plan included “raising the theme of ‘Putin’s support for Trump'” and pushing public opinion to “equate” the Russian leader’s influence campaign with actual election infrastructure hacking. It also involved distributing “the necessary information through the FBI-affiliated … technical structures...

LOCK THIS BITCH UP!
I would assume (maybe incorrectly) that you are referring to statues of limitation. I would suggest that statutes of limitation do not apply if there is a continuing conspiracy to cover up criminal activity. I am not a lawyer. Far from it, but that is my understanding.
No, I was just sarcastically suggesting what an HRC response would look like.
This is a conspiracy that has been hidden. I think statues of limitation clock doesnt start until...now.
The “I don’t recall” response has worked for her in the past.
So glad that millions in tax dollars was wasted to uncover crimes and no one was held criminally responsible. Not even one criminal referral from Durham.
bkmk
I REALLY miss Rush. He would be having a really good time with all of the stuff going on these days.
We knew all of this in 2017 and were told we are nuts.
As if Merrik Garland would have done anything. Or Barr before him.
Me too...miss my afternoon drives during lunch break with him on the radio.
Interesting - is Kevin Clinesmith aware of this?
But also - his final investigation was completed during the Biden administration - that group sure wasn't going to prosecute anyone. It's actually extraordinary they let him complete the investigation and submit a report with firing him first.
Every
Single
Day
Nuts? No, we were actually told we were being tolerant and supportive of treason.
Oh yeah. And Putin lovers.
Clinesmith was the sacrificial lamb. Durham knew there were far worse criminals and crimes committed, yet ignored his own investigative results. We now know he had more evidence on the others, yet sat on it. His ass needs to be investigated too.
