Russian intelligence gathered damaging information about former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s health during her 2016 presidential campaign, including evidence that she had “psycho-emotional problems” that were being treated with severe sedatives, but Vladimir Putin chose not to release it before the election because he believed the Democrat would win.
The SVR, Russia’s foreign intelligence service, “possessed DNC communications that Clinton was suffering from ‘intensified psycho-emotional problems, including uncontrolled fits of anger, aggression, and cheerfulness,’” according to the report, which the committee based on 20 interviews with intelligence officers and FBI agents, as well as a review of source material for the 2017 Obama-ordered report on Russian election meddling.
“Clinton was placed on a daily regimen of ‘heavy tranquilizers,’ and while afraid of losing, she remained ‘obsessed with a thirst for power.’”
By September 2016, some of the exchanges revealed that then-President Barack Obama and Democratic party leaders deemed Clinton’s health “extraordinarily alarming” and worried that it would have a “serious negative impact” on her chances to defeat Trump that November.
Clinton, 77, was reportedly suffering from “Type 2 diabetes, ischemic heart disease, deep vein thrombosis, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease” at the time.
Clinton advisers guarded a full picture of the former first lady’s condition with the “strictest secrecy.”
The SVR also “possessed a campaign email discussing a plan approved by Secretary Clinton to link Putin and Russian hackers to candidate Trump in order to ‘distract the [American] public’ from the Clinton email server scandal.”
On Thursday, Sen. Roger Marshall (R-KS) echoed Gabbard’s accusation that Hillary Clinton was taking tranquilizers while in office.
Gabbard had given a long remark on previously disclosed papers during a White House press briefing the day before. These documents, she said, proved that former President Barack Obama’s government was orchestrating a “coup” against then-President-elect Donald Trump. Gabbard accused the Obama administration of pushing the idea that Russia and Trump collaborated to influence the 2016 election.
The director also suggested that Russia had damaging material against Clinton but had chosen not to reveal it. This included alleged proof that Clinton suffered from “psychoemotional problems, uncontrolled fits of anger, aggression, and cheerfulness.”
According to Gabbard, Clinton was “on a daily regimen of heavy tranquilizers” to address these concerns.
During a discussion about the Trump administration’s investigation into the Obama administration, Marshall repeated the tranquilizer theory and accused Clinton of “craving for all the power she can get.”
“Look, here’s the truth. Yes, look at the evidence. Here’s a report from the Oval Office. Barack Obama is given a report from the intelligence agency saying that Russia had minimal impact on the election, and Barack says, ‘Oh no, let’s change that narrative,” Marshall said.
“Let’s go out there and delegitimize the election and tell the American people that Russia interfered with the election.’ Otherwise, how in the world could Hillary Clinton be beaten? Never mind that she was on tranquilizers at the time and to her wits’ end, and was craving for all the power she can get,” Marshall added.
The U.S. Department of Justice has formed a “strike force” to investigate the evidence made public by Gabbard regarding Obama and his top national security and intelligence officials’ alleged involvement in the origins of the Trump-Russia collusion narrative.
The Department of Justice (DOJ) announced Wednesday evening the formation of a “strike force” to investigate potential next legal steps resulting from Gabbard’s recent declassification of records indicating that Obama administration officials “manufactured” intelligence to create the narrative that then-candidate Donald Trump was colluding with Russia to influence the 2016 presidential election.
A source close to the strike squad told Fox News Digital that everything is being assessed and that no major leads are off the table. The Justice Department’s National Security Division would “likely be involved in the investigation.”
According to Justice Department officials, the DOJ regards the alleged weaponization of the intelligence community “with the utmost seriousness.”
