As the Gateway Pundit reported, Rep. Dana Rohrabacher (R-CA) had a call with White House Chief of Staff John Kelly on Wednesday about a potential deal with Julian Assange on the Wikileaks Podesta documents.
The Wall Street Journal reported on this phone call between Kelly and Rohrabacher on Friday. Rohrabacher is now saying this phone call was leaked by the Deep State in order to undermine his efforts to speak to President Trump directly about it.
Assange has repeatedly said Russia is not linked to the leak of thousands of John Podesta emails before the election.
Julian Assange reportedly told Rohrabacher he is ready to provide information that Russia did not hack the DNC.
Rohrabacher told the Washington Examiner on Friday night that no one from his office disclosed the call.
“I have honored the confidentially of a very important business-related call,” he said, speculating that someone inside the White House or within U.S. intelligence agencies leaked the call.
“I don’t know who it is, all I know is I’m up against an array of very powerful forces, including the intelligence services and major newspapers that are basically allied with the liberal Left who have every reason to undermine communication on this issue,” he told the Washington Examiner.
“Look, there are very powerful forces at work,” he added. “We’ve got the NSA, the FBI and the CIA, all of whom confirmed a major lie that was being used for political purposes and a lie that was repeated and repeated in order to undercut our new president.”
“You’ve got people who are obviously just trying to cover their ass for mistakes they have made,” he added, referring to the intelligence agency theory. “They will probably do their best to keep Trump from knowing about this and knowing about his options to expose this.”
The House official told Circa that Awan was also allegedly uploading “terabits of information to dropbox so he was possibly able to access the information even after he was banned from the network.” The official said there is a need for a full congressional investigation on the matter.
“I think this may lead to information as to who really accessed the DNC server – everybody talks about Russia – but look at the access (Awan) had and potentially those emails could have been sold,” the House official added.
