EXCLUSIVE: I sat down for an hour+ w/ @FBIDirectorKash @dbongino & a senior FBI agent to talk #ThomasCrooks probe.
The FBI says Thomas Crooks acted alone. FBI interviewed thousands of foreign & domestic individuals as part of the global investigation foxnews.com/politics/exclu…
.@FBIDDBngino @dbongino says "We have reviewed this case over and over -looked into every nugget.
We have spoken to the families, the president — there is no cover-up here.”
@FBIDDBngino @dbongino .@FBIDirectorKash says the FBI was able to access every single device & review every communication belonging to Crooks.
Any reporting to suggest the contrary, he says, is false.
I first reported that Brennan was under criminal investigation this summer. @CIADirector referred evidence of Brennan’s alleged wrongdoing to @FBIDirectorKash for potential prosecution
@CIADirector @FBIDirectorKash @AGPamBondi formed a “strike force” to review #russigate evidence found & declassified by @DNIGabbard @FBIDirectorKash @CIADirector
It was created after declassification of records suggesting Obama officials “manufactured” intel to form the Trump-Russia collusion narrative
NEW: Laptop connected to Hunter Biden linked to FBI money laundering probe, according to documents obtained by Fox News, sources -- per @JakeBGibson and I
NEW: The FBI’s subpoena of a laptop and hard drive purportedly belonging to Hunter Biden came in connection with a money laundering investigation in late 2019, according to documents obtained by Fox News and verified by multiple federal law enforcement officials who reviewed them
NEW: It is unclear, at this point, whethe investigation is ongoing or if it was directly related to Hunter Biden.
Multiple federal law enforcement officials & two govt officials,confirmed authenticity of docs, which were signed by FBI Special Agent Joshua Wilson.
NEW: @realDonaldTrump held a call with his campaign this AM, @TeamTrump, and predicted victory on Nov. 3.
"We’re going to win, and we’re going to win strong...I wouldn’t have told you that two or three weeks ago. I am more excited today than I was two weeks ago.”
NEW: @realDonaldTrump said he is "very happy, this is the day of both campaigns that I feel the best about winning. Because we’re winning in many states," touting performance in NC, PA, Ohio, Iowa, Michigan, & said he's confident in New Mexico, Minnesota
NEW: @realDonaldTrump added that he will "run up the coast — we’re going to get Florida, South Carolina, Georgia — we’re doing very, very well."
“We are in the best shape we’ve ever been in.”
NEW: @DNI_Ratcliffe says “The @FBI has had possession” of #HunterBiden laptop.
“Without commenting on any investigation that they may or may not have, their investigation is not centered around Russian disinformation and the IC is not playing any role with respect to that.”
"Ratcliffe is 100% correct," a senior intel official said. "There is no intel at this time to support @AdamSchiff
statement....Numerous foreign adversaries are seeking to influence American politics policies,& media narratives."
