Pro-MAGA correspondent Brian Glenn said he overheard reporters whispering "that's not true" and "that's a lie" at a briefing where Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard suggested President Barack Obama was guilty of treason.
At the Wednesday briefing, Gabbard said she had referred Obama and others to the Department of Justice for "treasonous conspiracy" and a "years-long coup" against President Donald Trump.
"Let's pray for Tulsi," Glenn told Real America's Voice on Thursday. "Let's pray for those like us in the media that are speaking out against that as well.
"I will say this. As she was laying out kind of the framework of what had happened, and holding up the receipts and having these digital screens behind her kind of showing the path of communication and all of this, there were rumblings there in the briefing, people sitting down in those chairs saying. 'That's not true — that's a lie,'" he continued.
"They were whispering and kind of commenting to themselves and amongst each other, exactly what she was saying wasn't actually true!"
"So if any of us think right now that this morning along Pebble Beach, they're gonna go ahead and maybe walk back some of those statements they said after 2016 that the Russia Russia Russia, Russia hacked the election, we've seen those highlight reels over the last eight hours on social media. They're not going to do that. They are still owning the fact that Russia hacked our election and that in 2016, President Trump did not rightfully win that election."
