An attorney who is representing an American businessman who worked undercover for the FBI and was witness to one of the biggest scandals of the Obama administration says her client was threatened with retaliation by the previous administration if he dared step forward and tell Congress about Russian efforts to unduly influence then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and the Obama White House.
As reported by The National Sentinel, attorney Victoria Toensing, the former chief counsel for the Senate Intelligence Committee and a Justice Department official during the Reagan administration, said in an interview with The Hill that she is currently trying to convince the Trump administration or the FBI to allow her client to speak.
