Gaetz calls for investigation of CIA over bombshell confession by contractor
Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., has contacted the House Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government asking for an investigation of the CIA over a bombshell confession by a contractor, actually a former contractor, according to the intel agency.
In that video, Fseisi admits multiple federal intelligence agencies withheld information from Donald Trump when he was president.
Now The Gateway Pundit has posted online a letter from Gaetz to Rep. Jim Jordan, chairman of the select subcommittee, insisting that the "evidence that American intelligence agencies withheld intelligence from President Donald Trump before and during his presidency" should be reviewed.
"Given that the Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government has broad jurisdiction to investigate the role of executive branch agencies in investigating American citizens, any unconstitutional, illegal, or unethical activities by said agencies as well as any other related violations of the civil liberties of the citizens of the United States, I am formally requesting that the weaponization subcommittee open a formal investigation into the concerning actions allegedly perpetrated by the intelligence community against President Trump as exhibited in the video footage that has been uncovered by James O'Keefe and O'Keefe Media," Gaetz wrote.
The CIA was trying to extricate itself from the controversy, O'Keefe reported.
He obtained a statement from the agency that claimed, "These claims about CIA are absolutely false and ridiculous. CIA is a resolutely apolitical institution that provides intelligence support to policymakers including the President of the United States, irrespective of who occupies the office. We are a foreign intelligence focused Agency and do not monitor the former President. The individual making these allegations is a former contractor who does not represent CIA."

The concerns are that Fseisi, reported to be a program manager working in Cyber Operations for the CIA and an NSA contractor with top-secret clearance, on video implicated the highest levels of the intelligence agencies.
He said, "There are certain people that would…give him a high-level overview but never give him any details. You know why? Because he’ll leak those details…He’s a Russian asset. He’s owned by the f----- Russians."
The Gateway Pundit noted the bombshell supports earlier reporting by Michael Shellenberger, Matt Taibbi and Alex Gutentag, investigative reporters who earlier revealed the American intel community for illegally spying on Trump when he was a candidate.
