Fox News Legal Analyst Gregg Jarrett, author of the upcoming book, “Witch Hunt: The Story of the Greatest Mass Delusion in American Political History,” appeared on the Todd Starnes Radio Show to make a stunning statement about former President Barack Obama.
Starnes: We had a guy call in and he suggested that the Democrats know this is really not going anywhere and that they’re doing this because there’s something more insidious coming. Do you agree with that?
Jarrett: I totally agree with that. Well, the inspector general’s report will probably come out in September, late September, early October. Right about the time my book Witch Hunt comes out and I think it’s going to be devastating for people like Andrew McCabe, James Comey, Peter Strzok, Bruce Ohr, James Baker – all of these people at the FBI and the Department of Justice who allowed their partisanship to influence their decisions. It was an abuse of power. I think there’ll be criminal referrals.
Starnes: We’ve got about a minute here. I contend that there’s concern within the ranks of the Democrats. This is going to reach back to the Obama White House and the Oval Office. Do you find that to be the case as well?
Jarrett: Absolutely Comey met with Obama the day before he briefed Trump on the dossier. An edited version of the briefing. And you know I think that the Obama administration had Trump in their site and they were going to do their level best to undo the election results and drive him from office and I think Barack Obama was in on it.
Starnes: And if that’s the case I mean this is historic – historic level of corruption here.
Jarrett: Oh sure it is not only undermining the rule of law but subverting democracy.
Starnes: We’ve got to leave it there. Gregg Jarrett fascinating stuff. Congratulations on the new book coming out, “Witch Hunt.” All right folks got to take a break. We’ll be right back.
