Story highlights
"It is my understanding from other parties who are trying to arrange a rendezvous with myself and the President, it is being arranged for me to give him the firsthand information from (Assange)," Rohrabacher said.
The White House did not return a request for comment on Rohrabacher's comments
(CNN) Republican Rep. Dana Rohrabacher said Monday that a "rendezvous" is being set up between him and President Donald Trump to relay information he received from WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange about the hack of the Democratic National Committee last year.
Rohrabacher, who is considered to be among the most pro-Russia members in Congress, met with Assange earlier this month and claims Assange told him that Russia was not involved in the hacking. Rohrabacher said after the meeting that he wanted to brief Trump on what Assange told him. Appearing on the Sean Hannity radio show Monday afternoon, the California congressman said that meeting was in the process of being set up.
"It is my understanding from other parties who are trying to arrange a rendezvous with myself and the President, it is being arranged for me to give him the firsthand information from (Assange)," Rohrabacher said.
Earlier in the interview, Rohrabacher said evidence he saw painted the Democratic National Committee hack being an "inside job," a claim Rohrabacher has made before. The Office of the Director of National Intelligence released an unclassified report in January revealing the conclusions from the CIA, FBI and National Security Agency that the Russian government was behind the hack of the DNC.
"If the information comes out, there will be an outrage among the American people that their time has been wasted," Rohrabacher said. "They've had this story over and over and again shoved down their throats as if the Russians colluded with Donald Trump, and this is an attempt, as I say, to negate their vote in the ballot booth. When the American people realize that this is a con job and a power grab they'll be upset."
"I'm trying to get this out in the public now where we can get this Julian Assange thing straightened out so that people know that it wasn't the Russians that hacked into the system, and that's not how this information was released," he said.
The White House did not return a request for comment on Rohrabacher's comments. Rohrabacher hung up on a CNN reporter who inquired about his comments.
This story has been updated with additional context about the intelligence community's January assessment of attempted Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election.

GOP lawmaker setting up meeting to share Assange info on DNC hack with Trump

A GOP lawmaker says a meeting is being set up with President Trump to share information from Wikileaks founder Julian Assange about the hack of the DNC during the 2016 presidential campaign.
Rep. Dana Rohrabacher (R-Calif.) told Sean Hannity on Monday in remarks first reported by CNN that a "rendezvous" between himself and Trump was being set up by "other parties" interested in the meeting.
"It is my understanding from other parties who are trying to arrange a rendezvous with myself and the President, it is being arranged for me to give him the firsthand information from [Assange]," Rohrabacher said.
Assange says the DNC hack was an "inside job" and not the work of hackers linked to Russia, as the U.S. intelligence community believes.
Rohrabacher became the first U.S. lawmaker to meet with Assange earlier this month. They met at the Ecuadorian Embassy in London, where Assange has been holed up for years.
Rohrabacher said the information Assange provided him, if made public, would "outrage" Americans.
"If the information comes out, there will be an outrage among the American people that their time has been wasted," Rohrabacher said.
"They've had this story over and over and again shoved down their throats as if the Russians colluded with Donald Trump, and this is an attempt, as I say, to negate their vote in the ballot booth," he added. "When the American people realize that this is a con job and a power grab they'll be upset."
In a previous interview, Rohrabacher told The Hill that Assange "emphatically stated" during their August meeting that Russia was not behind the 2016 leak of politically damaging documents from the DNC servers, adding that they would go into "further details" in later meetings.
“Julian emphatically stated that the Russians were not involved in the hacking or disclosure of those emails," Rohrabacher said at the time. “We left with the understanding that we would be going into further details in the near future."

I think Seth Rich provided the information from the DNC to Wikileaks, and that's why he was murdered. His parents should wake the hell up. I think Seth was a Bernie supporter and he was upset with the way the DNC rigged the primaries for Hillary. It does not take a genius to connect these dots for an investigation. One can only wonder why the FBI failed to do anything about this, ignored it all, and instead pulled the nation in a completely opposite direction in a phony political Witch Hunt against Trump. Comey, Clapper and Mueller are in this up to their ear lobes at this point, sooooo, we need a Special Counsel to investigate the Special Counsel.

As to why his parents aren't doing more, someone may have 'talked with them about their grandchildren'. Does he have siblings?
In other words, they may still have something to loose.
The phony witch hunt seems to me to just be a smokescreen to keep focus on that while they are doing something more dastardly, or shredding papers, dealing with others that need to be dealt with, etc.
There are probably a lot of things these people, both sides of the Uniparty, do not want uncovered.
