Vice President Mike Pence 'lied about handwritten notes of mine from 2016 that referenced unsubstantiated Russian allegation about Secretary Clinton' during his debate with Senator Kamala Harris, former CIA Director John Brennan tweeted on Wednesday night.
Brennan's notes did not indicate that the Clinton campaign was responsible for the Russia allegations, but instead noted that Russian intelligence was promoting the notion that a Clinton adviser had plotted to"vilify" Trump by connecting Russian interference to the then-candidate.
Brennan told CNN in an interview about the notes that there would be"nothing illegal" about the Clinton campaign attempting to"highlight the reported connections between Trump and the Russians." Department of Justice Inspector General Michael Horowitz's investigation into the allegations about the FBI on the Trump campaign found that the FBI investigation was initiated properly and without political bias or motivation.
In addition, the Mueller investigation into Russian election meddling did not conclude that there was"no obstruction" or"no collusion" by the Trump campaign. Instead, it concluded that there was not strong enough evidence to formally charge Trump or his campaign for helping Russia to interfere in the election.
