DiGenova to Newsmax: Russia Plot Violated Trump’s Rights

On Newsmax, Wednesday, former federal prosecutor Joe diGenova accused Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, and top intelligence officials of conspiring to violate President Donald Trump’s civil rights by spreading false information after the 2016 election.

“There’s no doubt, based on the disclosures by Tulsi Gabbard, the director of national intelligence, that beginning in 2016 and through 2017 and up until today, Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, James Brennan, James Comey, John Brennan, and others led a conspiracy to deny Donald Trump his civil rights,” diGenova, a former U.S. attorney for the District of Columbia and onetime chief counsel for the Senate Rules Committee, told “The Chris Salcedo Show.”

“They conspired to do so by spreading false information into interstate commerce,” he continued. “They fed it to the media. They fed it to the American people. They used it in official proceedings. And ultimately that led to charges being brought to him [Donald Trump] by state authorities as well, based on false information.”
