Senator Marshall Joins Newsmax Live to Discuss The DNI Report and August Recess

On the contents of the new DNI report on the Obama White House:
“Well, this is the true threat to Democracy. The smoking gun is very evident right here, where in the Oval Office, Barack Obama switched what the intelligence community had told him. He dreamed up this story, and why did he do it? Number one is, he wanted to delegitimize the election. Number two, he wanted to cripple the President’s [Trump] legacy going forward as well. When I look at something like this, I want to think about a little bit of logic here. You know, what was their motivation? I just described that…
“And this is the new report, okay, Congress had never seen this report from the Oval Office. It’s consistent with the rest of the story. You all have reported on the FISA abuse, Russia, Russia, Russia. This is the next chapter. And then here’s the evidence, here’s the evidence, here’s the smoking gun. Here is a report from the Oval Office itself, saying Barack Obama, in the room with Joe Biden and all of his cronies, saying: ‘Let’s switch the narrative of the story, let’s say that Russia interfered with the election, let’s delegitimize the election and the will of the people.’”
On why the media wants to bury this story:
“Yeah, I’m reminded of that Jack Nicholson saying, ‘mister, you can’t [handle] the truth…’ but look here’s the truth, yeah, look at the evidence. Here’s a report from the Oval Office: Barack Obama is given a report from the Intelligence Agency saying that Russia had minimal impact on the election.
“And Barack says, ‘Oh no, let’s change that narrative, let’s go out there and delegitimize the election and tell the American people that Russia interfered with the election.’ Otherwise, how in the world could Hillary Clinton be beaten? Never mind that she was on tranquilizers at the time and to her wits’ end, and was craving for all the power she can get.
“Look, again, this is the threat to Democracy. This is the true threat to Democracy when the President of the United States weaponizes the entire Intelligence Agency and the legacy media against the future President of the United States, the duly elected future President of the United States.”
On whether the Senate will remain in DC during the August recess period:
“Well, look, I certainly am out there publicly saying I want to stay. We have lunch together as Republican Senators every Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. I’ve been very consistent with our message. We need to stay here to fulfill the will of the American people, the 78 million people who voted for President Trump.
“Look, the political appointees right now that he has in those agencies are drowning. They need their junior members, their colonels, so to speak, to push back on the swamp. I had no idea how deep and wide this swamp is up here.
“So, we need more of those political appointees in there to push back and then go through and fulfill the President’s agenda, which is the will of the people. So, I’m absolutely committed to staying here, whatever it takes. We need to get these appointees across the finish line.”
