Is it pretended ignorance, or is it the real thing? A lot of “uh”s come out of former Hillary Clinton campaign Chairman John Podesta’s mouth in this clip that would be comical if they didn’t carry so much political weight.
While it’s not surprising that Podesta would stonewall Fox News’ Maria Bartiromo when she tries to pin him down on inquiries of Russian collusion on the Democratic side of the aisle, the fact of the matter is that the Democrats have more questions to answer regarding their Russian connections than the Trump administration does.
Not only is “Pass the Buck” Podesta directly attached to an energy company that was Kremlin-backed, the Obama administration has a lot of queries to field as to why it did nothing when it knew Russians were trying to meddle in the 2016 election. The fact that they weren’t successful isn’t the point.
President Trump has tweeted rhetorical questions to the American public testifying about this very subject, and it may be time for Congress to have hearings aimed specifically at uncovering the real story behind Russian connections to both the Hillary campaign (and especially to Podesta) and the Obama administration before President Trump even entered the Oval Office.
Watch as Podesta squirms and grasps for answers as Bartiromo pushes him on his ties to Russia
