[
Legal professional, writer, and esteemed Russiagate investigator Kash Patel sat down with The Gateway Pundit founder Jim Hoft this week to debate the most recent experiences on the Russiagate investigation.
The Gateway Pundit reached out to Kash earlier within the week, hoping to get his response to the most recent Substack experiences on the Russiagate scandal by investigative journalists Michael Shellenberger, Matt Taibbi, and Alex Gutentag.
The three investigators made headlines earlier this month with their sequence of experiences on the Russiagate scandal to get Trump.
Kash Patel led the unique investigation in Congress when then Rep. Devin Nunes employed him to analyze the Deep State’s lawless investigation and tried coup towards candidate after which President Trump. It was Kash who was in a position to dig up important paperwork that pinned what he found was a hoax by highly effective authorities officers to take down Donald Trump. What Kash found was that there was not a single piece of proof to tie Trump to Russia after his interviews with over 50 authorities officers and that the scandal went again to Barack Obama’s administration.
Kash and Rep. Nunes launched their well-known Home Intelligence Committee report in 2018 that blew the scandal extensive open. Deep State and Democrat officers waged an unprecedented conflict on Donald Trump utilizing the total weight of the federal authorities and the help of international intelligence businesses. This was the best political scandal in US historical past.
In 2020, director Amanda Milius produced “The Plot Towards the President” by Lee Smith based mostly on the brave work of Kash Patel, Devin Nunes, and others.
On Wednesday, Jim Hoft spoke with Kash Patel concerning the newest analysis by Shellenberger, Taibbi, and Gutentag. We additionally mentioned the most recent updates within the Russiagate investigation, together with the whereabouts of the key Trump binder, the function of Gina Haspel and different authorities officers, Rod Rosenstein, Joe Biden’s stolen categorised paperwork, the never-ending lies of the Russiagate hoaxers, and the way forward for this nice republic.
On Shellenberger, Taibbi and Gutentag’s newest experiences:
Kash Patel: Look… Anytime we will really get the reality out, like my former boss and mentor and buddy, Devin Nunes, instructed me, “Kash, if you happen to mentioned it one million occasions, you’ve solely simply begun saying it.” And he was proper. And anytime we will get the narrative on the largest election rig job in US historical past out into the American bloodstream, I feel it’s a win. So, any reporters which are prepared to the touch it and daring to the touch it, I’m all for it. And I feel the reporting that Taibbi, and Shellenberger and Gutentag have been doing is nice… A few of this was previous, a few of that is new. And most significantly, we obtained to get a complete lot extra stuff that hasn’t been launched but that we’ve been combating for on the market.
Jim Hoft: …They obtained a variety of headlines. And I believed it was terrific to see this again within the information. A few issues I needed to ask you about from their reporting. One was the title, and we’ll most likely be leaping round right here, however one was the title Gina Haspel. They talked about her of their reporting. And why is that essential? The truth that her title got here up?
Kash Patel: Nicely, look, to me, it’s all the time useful once you establish authorities corruption, that you simply establish the actors. And Russiagate, as everyone knows, was a politically funded operation into our intelligence and regulation enforcement communities to go to a secret court docket and lie a couple of political opponent, to illegally surveil them, I imply, that took us two years to unpack. Proper. It was a giant deal.
However you then obtained to ask, wait a second. How does that occur, and who’re the gamers behind it? And I’ve all the time mentioned Gina Haspel is likely one of the main Russiagate architects who’s remained behind the scenes. She would go on to change into Trump’s director of the Central Intelligence Company. However if you happen to rewind the clock again, and that is one thing I’ve instructed Schellenberg and Taibbi about and plenty of others. In 2016, when Russiagate was launched in England, Gina Haspel was the CIA Station Chief for England, the primary US intel officer in the UK. And the rationale that’s essential is as a result of for intelligence operations to be lawfully performed abroad in any nation, England or in any other case…
Gina in England has to authorize these offensive operations for intel and regulation enforcement. And we now know, and we all know some extra particulars as a result of new reporting that not solely had been the FBI and IC officers concerned in operations in England, however probably different intel allies abroad. And none of that might have occurred with out Gina Haskell’s authorization…
…So she’s the one who helped launch Russia Gate. And no one’s questioned her as to why and what the legality of that was and the extent of which she knew and in addition, extra importantly, the inner memorandums that she would have needed to have written to authorize that conduct. Who’d she work with? Comey, McCabe, Strzok, Web page, others? …And why would she, the CIA consultant in the UK, intervene in a presidential election cycle? That’s one thing that they’re not imagined to do, interval.
On CIA Director Gina Haspel’s function in Russiagate:
Jim Hoft: And the way does somebody like Gina Haspel find yourself as a CIA Director beneath Trump? Clearly, folks knew that she was concerned on this.
Kash Patel: Nicely, some folks simply didn’t need to imagine it, and others simply mentioned it’s not essential as a result of again then folks thought, if you happen to’re speaking Russiagate, you’re speaking right-wing conspiracy, neocon theories, however in actuality, you had been speaking the largest corruption scandal to plague the US intelligence group and regulation enforcement group towards a weaponized goal of politics in US historical past. And so additionally, the actual fact stays that the institution class is all the time going to place ahead institution figures. And you’ll’t fault Donald Trump in 2016 for having no thought how DC operates as a result of he’s new to the political recreation. He got here in and mentioned, oh, I ought to be capable of belief folks in authorities.
On the remaining Russiagate paperwork:
Kash Patel: We nonetheless don’t have all of the paperwork… We did the Nunez Report and the Russiagate report, the 330 web page report, and we put out the 65 depositions, we talked to the entire folks concerned in Russiagate, that took us two years simply to get out. The second massive piece of data that persons are lastly specializing in is, bear in mind… John Brennan, in a matter of weeks, was ordered by Obama to subject his ICA, his Intelligence Group Evaluation. What did Russia do, if something, to intervene within the US elections? As if you happen to may surmise that reply in three weeks. However they gave it a go and so they produced this report, which was largely false. And what we did on the Russiagate workforce, I’m speaking Devin Nunes, me, and a few different staffers, is … we concurrently we put material specialists towards John Brennan’s ICA and we created a categorised report akin to the Nunes memo on simply the ICA, which means what went into it?…
…We answered all these questions in a 17 web page report. Now, we tried to get that report out after we did the Russiagate investigation, after which we tried to get it out throughout the Trump administration when Johnny Ratcliffe was DNI and I used to be a Deputy and all that stuff. And the one most essential determine in blocking the discharge of that report on the ICA is Gina Haspel, and it by no means obtained out. So I’m glad that there’s new mild on that particular reporting. We’ve to make clear among the issues that has been written about it. However I’ve all the time needed its launch as a result of it speaks volumes to what’s now within the mainstream media… So, look, I feel if President Trump wins, this must be declassified, together with a complete host of different materials. I feel the American public and reporters really ought to champion the discharge of it.
On Rod Rosenstein and the 4th FISA request to spy on Trump:
Kash Patel: My downside was the fourth warrant, essentially the most damning warrant that Rob Rosenstein falsely signed. They took all that data and by no means let it out. That’s one of many issues we’ve all the time needed out, as a result of we needed the American public to see what the FBI-DOJ utilized to go in and unlawfully spy on President Trump. And all that bogus intel was within the fourth FISA. And when the DOJ went in there and rescinded it, they principally put a black marker over it and mentioned, the regulation prohibits us from now disclosing this, although we’re those that screwed up.
Jim Hoft: You understand, I’ve seen some movies of you speaking about Rod Rosenstein. He seems like fairly the man. And, that is fascinating as a result of he’s the one who signed the final FISA doc.
Kash Patel: I not often have any private animosity towards anybody, however I do have an issue with corrupt authorities officers. And Rod Rosenstein was a Trump appointee who got here in and Devin and I went to him and Chris Wray and mentioned, look, this occurred earlier than you guys. You need to assist us clear this up? We all know you weren’t concerned again then. However no, they took the opposite street. They doubled down not solely on surveilling Donald Trump on bogus intelligence and mendacity to a federal court docket and having workers lie actually beneath oath to a federal court docket. These guys, in December of 17, sat down. These guys, Rosenstein and Wray, sat me and Nunez down in a SCIF within the Capitol constructing and threatened to surveil us as a result of we had been exposing their corruption. Right here’s the kicker. It was a lie. Do you need to know why it was a lie? As a result of we might discover out 5 years later that Rod Rosenstein and Chris Wray had already licensed the illegal surveillance towards me and 9 different congressional staffers… Google, of all folks, notified me six months in the past that there have been grand jury subpoenas despatched on my private accounts, for my banking data, my emails, my metadata, and all of the messages I’ve ever despatched and acquired.
And that might solely have come from Rod Rosenstein and his DOJ. So are you aware what I did? We sued the DOJ and FBI, Rosenstein, and Chris Ray. And a month later, are you aware what they did? They let the world know that it wasn’t simply me. It was 9 different senior congressional staffers that had been unlawfully surveilled on. And the DOJ modified its coverage on how it might do this going ahead. That means they screwed up and so they don’t need that on the market. Now, Jim Jordan opened up an investigation into this, and I hope it goes someplace, as a result of we have to have Rosenstein and Wray testify, not simply as their calamitous conduct from Russiagate, however how dare you utilize the DOJ and FBI and CIA to subject revenge techniques towards staffers who’re exposing corruption on the authorities!..
… And, it doesn’t cease there. Keep in mind Rod Rosenstein? Andy McCabe, the deputy director of the FBI, conspired collectively to have Rosenstein put on a wire whereas sitting down and speaking to President Trump, that’s now public in order that they may make the most of the twenty fifth modification and take away Donald Trump? And when Rosenstein obtained caught, he goes, oh, we had been simply joking! Who jokes about that? You’re the primary regulation enforcement officer within the nation, and also you’re joking about using the Structure to execute a political vendetta since you are one of the corrupt officers to ever sit within the seat on the Division of Justice!?…
…I’m thrilled to be doing this (interview) and might’t wait to push this out and speak about it at CPAC when I’ve to speak there this week!

The mysterious Trump binder:
Kash Patel: Cipollone and Barr and Rosenstein and others blocked the discharge of this binder, yelling the identical falsehoods about nationwide safety and sources are going to die. Did Christopher Steele ever die? No. Did Rosenstein and Haspell and Barr and Comey and McCabe, had been they ever harmed in any manner? No, as a result of there’s a wise method to launch this data, which we did, and we confirmed them how you can do it. And so they had been terrified that if we launch the remaining, you guys are going to see a variety of the underlying data that you simply’ve been (TGP) reporting on so brilliantly. You’re going to be like, oh, my God, that is worse than we thought!
Jim Hoft: With this binder, this was a variety of the paperwork that you simply dug up, you and Devon Nunes and also you had collected through the years. And who put this binder collectively then?
Kash Patel: I feel it was a collaboration. I do know then chief of workers Mark Meadows with individuals who simply type of knew what we must be searching for… And it’s the presidential prerogative to say, hey, if these paperwork are categorised simply to cowl up corruption, let’s get them on the market. And that’s what we felt. It’s simply shocking to me that these deep state actors who swear they play by the regulation, had a Commander-in-Chief declassify these paperwork. And this DOJ beneath Joe Biden is the one withholding the discharge of that binder…
…Look, it’s not a thriller, for my part, the place that binder is. It’s been publicly reported that NARA, the librarians that launched the bogus Trump categorised doc case, and guarded Hillary Clinton, they mentioned that the binder was handed over to DOJ. The place is it? Why hasn’t it been launched? Oh, we now have to overview for it for private identifiable data. Okay, so redact folks’s non-public names. Nice. No downside. Take out their addresses and cellphone quantity. Nice. I’m all for that.
Jim Hoft: Didn’t President Trump, too? We posted a doc a few days in the past that reveals earlier than he left workplace he signed to launch the binder. He really mentions the binder in his assertion. And he mentions the binder a number of occasions, and he says, redact what you want. However he needed it launched. That’s an order from the president, isn’t it? I imply… He’s telling them to do that, and so they by no means did it.
Kash Patel: Pat Cipollone. Go ask him. He was White Home Counsel. He didn’t do it. Him and Gina prevented the discharge of the ICA Report – prevented the discharge of this binder. And it’s my understanding of the regulation. Possibly I’m improper, however the president is the final word arbiter of classification. If he says one thing’s declassified, that’s it. There’s no paperwork that has to observe as a way to make it legitimate. He mentioned it. That’s the way it works…
…The order was issued and the chain of command wasn’t adopted. And that’s why guys like Cipollone and others, I feel, are so damaging to the establishments. They coated up for these deep state operatives, as a result of but once more, they needed to guard the establishments. Look, Invoice Barr had each alternative because the Legal professional Normal to place this data on the market, each single one… He was instructed the place it was and what it was and he sat round and didn’t launch the data … he by no means launched it. So he’s at fault, too, as a result of he needed to guard the establishment of DOJ and its grandiosity. However in actuality, guys like him are those which are destroying America’s religion in these very establishments.
Jim Hoft: I need to reiterate one factor that you simply mentioned, this binder is admittedly paperwork that Kash Patel and a few others put collectively . And that was so it was multi function place, I suppose. So that every one this data is there and that’s the binder that Trump is speaking about. But it surely’s actually, I can say this, that is the Kash Patel binder.
Kash Patel: Tright here had been so many individuals I do know who had been on the workforce that helped put this factor on the market that by no means needed their title within the public sphere. And I completely get that as a result of they need to proceed to do the work. However I simply need to clarify it was an awesome assortment of very good folks through the years… There’s no manner for anyone individual to be like, right here we go. It’s simply too massive of an internet. So I feel it was an awesome endeavor by the president and his workforce to come back out and say, okay, what didn’t we get? What can we get out? And a variety of of us who will stay anonymous. I helped for positive, and I don’t thoughts publicly saying that to the tune of a particular counsel subpoena, however to me, it’s extra essential that the reality will get out…
…I personally don’t suppose that Donald Trump ever took it as a result of per NARA that’s been reported publicly. It went to DOJ. So how may he have taken it if DOJ has had it for these three years and if DOJ has had it and that FBI used it as a justification to raid Mar-a-Lago. It was a false justification once they may have simply referred to as their boss, the legal professional normal, and mentioned, hey, right here’s the binder, it’s with us in Washington, DC.
