According to CNN, the former chair of Hillary Clinton’s campaign, John Podesta, and the former chairwoman of the Democratic National Committee, Debbie Wasserman Schultz, both denied to congressional investigators that they had any knowledge about the infamous Trump-Russia dossier. The denials, allegedly stated during a private meeting with the congressional investigatory committee, preceded the publication of The Washington Post‘s bombshell report alleging that attorney Marc Elias, on behalf of the Clinton campaign and the DNC, hired the opposition research firm which compiled the dossier.
The two former chairs’ denials to congressional investigators, points out CNN, “raise the stakes in their assertion that they knew nothing about the funding because it’s against the law to make false statements to Congress.”
