Earlier this week it was reported that Hillary Clinton’s emails were hacked by the Chinese government. The FBI denied these claims but Representative Louie Gohmert is doubling down. Gohmert claims that Clinton was hacked by a foreign entity, while not naming the specific country.

According to Fox News:

Republican Rep. Louie Gohmert doubled down after the FBI dismissed claims that a Chinese state-owned company hacked former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s private email server.

‘[P]artisan politics, sadly, are very much at play within some of the leadership at the FBI,” the Texas congressman said in a statement late Wednesday. 

The Daily Caller first reported that the FBI was notified of the purported hack in 2015, when the Intelligence Community Inspector General (ICIG) warned the bureau of the intrusion. The hack reportedly implanted code that generated a “courtesy copy” for almost all Clinton’s emails — which was then forwarded to the Chinese company. 

A source briefed on the matter confirmed to Fox News the details of the Caller’s reporting. Gohmert also had told Fox News on Tuesday that the emails were obtained by a foreign country’s intelligence, though he declined to name the country in question.

The FBI has denied that they found any evidence of a hack, but Gohmert pointed out that was because the ICIG found the hack and not the FBI. The ICIG declined to comment on this claim by Gohmert.
