President Trump's direction and with the support and coordination with the House Intelligence

Committee Chairman Rick Crawford.

Today we've released a declassified Oversight Majority Staff Report that was produced in September

of 2020.

The stunning revelations that we are releasing today should be of concern to every American. This is not about Democrats or Republicans. This has to do with the integrity of our Democratic Republic and American voters having faith that the votes cast will count.

There is irrefutable evidence that detail how President Obama and his national security team directed the creation of an intelligence

community assessment that they knew was false. They knew it would promote this contrived

narrative that Russia interfered in the 2016 election to help President Trump win, selling it to the

American people as though it were true. It wasn't. The report that we released today shows in great detail how they carried this out.

They manufactured findings from shoddy sources.

They suppressed evidence and credible intelligence that disproved their false claims.

They disobeyed traditional tradecraft intelligence community standards

and withheld the truth from the American people. In doing so, they conspired to subvert the will

of the American people who elected Donald Trump in that election in November of 2016. They worked

with their partners in the media to promote this lie,

ultimately to undermine the legitimacy of President Trump and launching what would be a year's long coup against him and his administration.

We're here today because the American people deserve the truth, they deserve accountability, and they deserve

justice. The report goes into great detail about the information that Russia and Putin had,

which on Hillary Clinton, which included possible criminal acts, like secret meetings with

multiple named U.S. religious organizations in which State Department officials offered in exchange for

supporting Secretary Clinton's campaign for the presidency significant increases in financing

from the State Department.
