However, under the \u201cunusual\u201d directive of then-President Obama, they allegedly released \u201cpotentially biased\u201d or \u201cimplausible\u201d intelligence that suggested otherwise.<\/p>\n<p>This information was derived from a report declassified by Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, which was compiled by the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence in 2020.<\/p>\n<p>The report, which stemmed from an investigation initiated by former House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes, R-Calif., was dated September 18, 2020. At the time of the report\u2019s publication, Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., served as the committee\u2019s chairman.<\/p>\n<p>Previously, this report had not been made available to the public and remained highly classified within the intelligence community.<\/p>\n<p>Fox News Digital acquired the \u201cfully-sourced limited-access investigation report that was drafted and stored in a limited-access vault at CIA Headquarters,\u201d which contains several redactions.<\/p>\n<p>One section of the report indicates that the materials in Putin\u2019s possession included Russian intelligence regarding the Democratic National Committee, allegedly revealing that senior Democratic leaders were concerned about Clinton\u2019s health being \u201cextraordinarily alarming.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The report states, \u201cAs of September 2016, the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service had DNC information that President Obama and Party leaders found the state of Secretary Clinton\u2019s health to be \u2018extraordinarily alarming,\u2019 and felt it could have \u2018serious negative impact\u2019 on her election prospects.\u201d Furthermore, it notes that her health information was being maintained in the \u2018strictest secrecy.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>The Russian Foreign Intelligence Service reportedly possessed communications from the DNC indicating that \u201cClinton was experiencing \u2018intensified psycho-emotional issues, including uncontrollable fits of anger, aggression, and cheerfulness.&#8217;\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAccording to the report, Clinton was subjected to a daily regimen of \u2018heavy tranquilizers\u2019 and, despite her fear of losing, she remained \u2018obsessed with a thirst for power.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, the Russians allegedly had information indicating that Clinton \u201csuffered from \u2018Type 2 diabetes, Ischemic heart disease, deep vein thrombosis, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, they purportedly possessed a \u201ccampaign email discussing a strategy approved by Secretary Clinton to associate Putin and Russian hackers with candidate Trump in order to \u2018distract the American public\u2019 from the scandal surrounding the Clinton email server.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>During the White House press briefing on Wednesday, Gabbard stated that there were \u201chigh-level DNC emails that provided evidence of Hillary\u2019s, quote, psycho-emotional issues, uncontrolled fits of anger, aggression, and cheerfulness, and that then Secretary Clinton was reportedly on a daily regimen of heavy tranquilizers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGabbard remarked that then CIA Director Brennan and the intelligence community misrepresented intelligence and relied on questionable, substandard sources to fabricate a false narrative suggesting that Putin had a, quote unquote, \u2018clear preference\u2019 for Trump,\u201d she said. \u201cBrennan and the intelligence community misled lawmakers by citing the discredited Steele dossier to evaluate, quote unquote, \u2018Russia\u2019s plans and intentions,\u2019 falsely implying that this dossier held intelligence value when he was aware that it had been discredited; the intelligence community omitted significant intelligence and ignored or selectively quoted credible intelligence that contradicted their assessments.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cKey findings regarding Putin\u2019s alleged support for Trump, including this intelligence reporting, would have rendered the ICA\u2019s claim implausible, if not absurd,\u201d she concluded.<\/p>\n<p>Neither Clinton nor Obama provided a response to Fox News Digital\u2019s inquiry for comment.<\/p>\n<p>A tranquilizer is a medication utilized to alleviate mental disturbances, including anxiety and tension. These drugs are generally prescribed to individuals experiencing anxiety, sleep disorders, and other related conditions that impact their mental and physical well-being.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>According to a newly declassified intelligence report, Russia purportedly possessed information indicating that former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was using \u201cheavy tranquilizers,\u201d a situation that former President Barack Obama and Democratic Party leaders deemed to be \u201cextraordinarily alarming.\u201d Fox News Digital initially reported that the U.S. intelligence community lacked any direct evidence that Russian&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":24581,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_kad_post_transparent":"default","_kad_post_title":"default","_kad_post_layout":"default","_kad_post_sidebar_id":"","_kad_post_content_style":"default","_kad_post_vertical_padding":"default","_kad_post_feature":"","_kad_post_feature_position":"","_kad_post_header":false,"_kad_post_footer":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[10,9,3,4,5,8,6,7],"class_list":["post-24580","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-education","tag-health","tag-insurance","tag-investing","tag-legal","tag-medical","tag-mortgage","tag-real-estate"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.0 -
