BOMBSHELL: OBAMA IG FINALLY GOES PUBLIC WITH INFORMATION ON HILLARY'S EMAILS
A former intel chief who oversaw the 17 U.S. intelligence agencies says he was threatened
and bullied for reporting concerns about Hillary Clinton's unsecured email server.
Former Intelligence Community Inspector General Charles McCullough III is just the latest
victim, but probably won't be the last, according to Allen B. West.
From Fox News:
A government watchdog who played a central role in the Hillary Clinton email investigation
during the Obama administration told Fox News that he, his family and his staffers faced
an intense backlash at the time from Clinton allies – and that the campaign even put
out word that it planned to fire him if the Democratic presidential nominee won the 2016
election.
"There was personal blowback.
Personal blowback to me, to my family, to my office," former Intelligence Community
Inspector General Charles McCullough III said.
The Obama appointee discussed his role in the Clinton email probe for the first time
on television, during an exclusive interview with Fox News.
McCullough – who came to the inspector general position with more than two decades of experience
at the FBI, Treasury and intelligence community – shed light on how quickly the probe was
politicized and his office was marginalized by Democrats.
Continued:
In January 2016, after McCullough told the Republican leadership on the Senate intelligence
and foreign affairs committees that emails beyond the "Top Secret" level passed through
the former secretary of state's unsecured personal server, the backlash intensified.
"All of a sudden I became a shill of the right," McCullough recalled.
"And I was told by members of Congress, 'Be careful.
You're losing your credibility.
You need to be careful.
There are people out to get you.'"

But the former inspector general, with responsibility for the 17 intelligence agencies, said the
executive who recommended him to the Obama administration for the job – then-Director
of National Intelligence James Clapper – was also disturbed by the independent Clinton
email findings.
"[Clapper] said, 'This is extremely reckless.'
And he mentioned something about — the campaign … will have heartburn about that," McCullough
said.
He said Clapper's Clinton email comments came during an in-person meeting about a year
before the presidential election – in late December 2015 or early 2016.
"[Clapper] was as off-put as the rest of us were."
More from BizPac Review:
As Election Day approached, McCullough said the threats against him intensified.
Hillary's campaign told him point-blank that Clinton would fire him (an Obama appointee)
as soon as she got elected president.
"It was told in no uncertain terms by a source directly from the campaign, that we
would be the first two to be fired with [Clinton's] administration," he said.
McCullough said he was merely trying to do his job and protect national security.
"I was, in this context, a whistleblower," he recalled.
"I was doing exactly what they had expected me to do … and all of a sudden I was the
enemy."

Hillary still has not been charged with any wrongdoing even though more than 2,100 classified
emails passed through her unsecured personal server.
When asked what would've happened to him if he had done such a thing, McCullough replied:
"I'd be sitting in Leavenworth right now."
