Brooke Singman Details The Latest Shocking Russiagate Revelations

Fox News Digital Political Reporter Brooke Singman joins Fox Across America With Jimmy Failla to shed light on some of the explosive details in the appendix to former Special Counsel John Durham's report which was released by the Senate Judiciary Committee. 'Basically this document today confirms those notes that we knew about. George Soros, who runs nonprofits and obviously is a left-wing Hillary Clinton ally, her best buddy Huma Abedin just married George Soros's son So you can't say that there's no connection there. But somebody who was working for George Soros back in 2016 with communicating with someone over email days before the FBI opened the investigation into Trump and Russia saying that the FBI was going to pour more oil on the fire and investigate the Clinton plan to tie Trump to Russia. So basically, you got a Soros connected person from his Open Society Foundation communicating with someone over email, an email that was ultimately hacked by the Russians, days before the FBI opens the investigation saying, hey, I know the FBI is going to open this investigation. How? Oh, well, maybe because it was all part of this broader plan to do this. And that's essentially what I believe we will continue to uncover.'
