Schweizer suggests that Haspel should be investigated for her alleged role in covering up the Russia collusion conspiracy while serving as CIA director. Haspel, who was the CIA station chief in London during 2016-2017 under then-director John Brennan, is accused of suppressing key Russiagate documents that might have <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/watch-cnn-cuts-tulsi-gabbard-off-as-she-lays-out-the-inconvenient-facts-of-the-russia-hoax\/\" title=\"Watch: CNN Cuts ...

Despite demands from Republican senators to release these documents, she reportedly refused. The article highlights ongoing revelations about the involvement of figures like Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama in promoting false allegations of Russian interference aimed at helping Trump win the 2016 election. Additionally, Tulsi Gabbard, Director of National Intelligence, has called for criminal investigations into ObamaS role in the Russia hoax, prompting the Department of Justice to form a Strike Force to examine the evidence.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"article-body body-md bdr-top-black pt-30\">\n<div class=\"row justify-content-center\">\n<div class=\"col-12\">\n<figure class=\"article-thumbnail mb-30 mb-sm-60\">\n<div class=\"article-thumbnail-caption d-flex align-items-center justify-content-md-end label-xs mt-15\">         <i class=\"mdi mdi-camera me-10\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i>         <span class=\"visually-hidden\">Image Credit<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=goVn28CjDsA\">CNN \/ Youtube <\/a>       <\/div>\n<\/figure><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"article-share text-center article-share-simple\">\n<h5 class=\"label-sm mb-10\">Share<\/h5>\n<ul class=\"article-share-list list-unstyled m-0 p-0\">\n<li class=\"article-share-facebook m-0\">       <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer\/sharer.php?u=https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2025\/07\/28\/schweizer-gina-haspel-should-be-investigated-for-covering-up-russia-conspiracy-while-cia-director\/\" target=\"_blank\">         <i class=\"mdi mdi-facebook\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i>         <span class=\"visually-hidden\">Share Article on Facebook<\/span>       <\/a>     <\/li>\n<li class=\"article-share-twitter m-0\">       <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?text=Schweizer:%20Gina%20Haspel%20Should%20Be%20Investigated%20For%20Covering%20Up%20Russia%20Conspiracy%20While%20CIA%20Director&amp;url=https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2025\/07\/28\/schweizer-gina-haspel-should-be-investigated-for-covering-up-russia-conspiracy-while-cia-director\/\" target=\"_blank\">         <i class=\"mdi mdi-twitter\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i>         <span class=\"visually-hidden\">Share Article on Twitter<\/span>       <\/a>     <\/li>\n<li class=\"article-share-truth-social m-0\">       <a href=\"https:\/\/truthsocial.com\/share?title=Schweizer:%20Gina%20Haspel%20Should%20Be%20Investigated%20For%20Covering%20Up%20Russia%20Conspiracy%20While%20CIA%20Director&amp;url=https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2025\/07\/28\/schweizer-gina-haspel-should-be-investigated-for-covering-up-russia-conspiracy-while-cia-director\/\" target=\"_blank\">         <svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" fill=\"currentColor\" style=\"width:36px;height:auto;\" viewbox=\"0 0 92 93\"><path d=\"M69.444 55.716H56.772v10.37h12.672zM64.487 37.795V27.32H38.666v38.664h13.18v-28.19zM21.05 27.321h12.653v10.471H21.051z\" https:><\/path><\/svg>         <span class=\"visually-hidden\">Share Article on Truth Social<\/span>       <\/a>     <\/li>\n<li class=\"article-share-link m-0\">       <button data-clipboard-text=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2025\/07\/28\/schweizer-gina-haspel-should-be-investigated-for-covering-up-russia-conspiracy-while-cia-director\/\" data-tooltip-content=\"Copied!\" class=\"clip tooltip\">         <i class=\"mdi mdi-link-variant\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i>         <span class=\"visually-hidden\">Copy Article Link<\/span>       <\/button>     <\/li>\n<li class=\"article-share-email m-0\">       <a href=\"mailto:?subject=Schweizer:%20Gina%20Haspel%20Should%20Be%20Investigated%20For%20Covering%20Up%20Russia%20Conspiracy%20While%20CIA%20Director&amp;body=%20https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2025\/07\/28\/schweizer-gina-haspel-should-be-investigated-for-covering-up-russia-conspiracy-while-cia-director\/\" target=\"_blank\">         <i class=\"mdi mdi-email\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i>         <span class=\"visually-hidden\">Share Article via Email<\/span>       <\/a>     <\/li>\n<li class=\"article-share-email m-0\"><span class=\"printfriendly pf-button  pf-alignleft\"><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/thefederalist.com\/#\" rel=\"nofollow\" onclick=\"window.print(); return false;\" title=\"Printer Friendly, PDF &amp; Email\"><span id=\"printfriendly-text2\" class=\"pf-button-text\"><i class=\"mdi mdi-printer\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<p>During discussions on <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/SundayFutures\/status\/1949492164804710773\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>Sunday Morning Features<\/em><\/a>  about the key players pushing the Russia collusion hoax, Government Accountability Institute President Peter Schweizer threw another name in the hat: Trump-appointed CIA Director Gina Haspel.<\/p>\n<p>Haspel <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2020\/10\/05\/intel-sources-cia-director-gina-haspel-banking-on-trump-loss-to-keep-russiagate-documents-hidden\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">was<\/a> the CIA station chief in London in 2016 and 2017 under then-CIA Director John Brennan.
