‘Really Troubling’: Bret Baier Buys in to Tulsi Gabbard’s Obama Conspiracy Theory

MACCALLUM: “Well, I look forward to seeing that interview again, Bret. You know, one of the very interesting things here is the different way that Hillary Clinton was treated as opposed to President Trump. She received a defensive briefing. It seems that the highest bar was put in place in terms of any information that could be used against her. It also is revealed in this report that at one point in the process, they were looking at investigating her because they believed that she was sort of throwing all of this stuff about Russia out there, and this dossier out there, in order to cover up for the server investigation. So, at one point, they were looking into that closely; but then there’s this huge steer towards Trump with, according to these documents, a much lower bar that is needed for the credibility of the information that they’re going to corral and throw at him, correct?”

BAIER: “Yeah, that’s exactly right. Now, this is the Trump investigation and this is what they’re putting out here. Separately, Chuck Grassley has put out these files on the Hillary Clinton email case — which are really eye-opening, as well — and a lot of it is redacted. But I talked about both of those things with Comey back in 2018. There was a major disparity. And in the middle of this, you have the Page and Strzok, the two lovers at FBI, who are, they come out with these texts of how biased they are against President Trump; and they’re in charge of the investigation, of the interview of Hillary Clinton, of the BleachBit phones, of the interview and scheduling for Michael Flynn — then NSA director. And you see how this all kind of comes in together in a way that is — in hindsight, as you look at the big picture — really troubling. I think — listen, we are one of the only outlets that’s following this in-depth, kind of on the substance, as opposed to, again, a glancing blow; and I think it deserves that kind of coverage.”
