Which tailors with the Strzok text about official saying “The White House is running this”
Former White House Press Secretary Ari Fleischer said Thursday he believes it’s highly unlikely that President Obama did not know an FBI informant was in the Trump campaign.
“We need to know why did it begin, who authorized it and what role did Barack Obama have. Did he know the FBI had informants there? I’ll guarantee you the answer is yes. No FBI would put informants in another presidential campaign without permission from the White House, including the president,” he said on “Outnumbered.”
He said the FBI counterintelligence probe “spiraled out of control” after the Obama administration chose not to warn Trump about possible infiltration by Russia.
