Former Trump campaign aide and Republican consultant Michael Caputo has provided more details about what he believes was another attempt to infiltrate the Trump campaign during the 2016 U.S. election – long before FBI informant Stephan Halper infiltrated the Trump campaign, targeting several aides. Speaking on Tuesday with Fox News and One America News Network (OANN), Caputo said he refused an offer from a former NSA contractor who said he had Hillary Clinton’s emails.
The informant, allegedly a former NSA contractor, approached Caputo through a friend and intermediary telling them he had a cache of Hillary Clinton’s emails which he wanted to pass along to the Trump campaign.
“I was approached by an intermediary who had been talking to a former government official who told him that they had Hillary Clinton related emails at the – at that government organization, and that they wanted to get them to the Trump campaign.”
While unwilling to go into further detail on Fox, OANN ‘s Jack Posobiec reports that Caputo confirmed the second informant claimed to be from the NSA – which Posobiec and several others noted does not typically run these types of operations.
The intermediary, identified by the Daily Wire as Kirk Bell, was approached at a party by the government contractor. The Daily Wire says that Caputo characterized this as a possible misunderstanding, however Caputo later told OANN’s Jack Posobiec that his words were being taken out of context “to push an agenda.”
