Biden Cabinet pick Jennifer Granholm promoted 'pee tape,' Russian collusion claims
Jennifer Granholm, President-elect Joe Biden's pick to be energy secretary, heavily promoted claims that President Trump's campaign colluded with Russia to win the 2016 election, even mentioning an unsubstantiated "pee tape." "And here I thought [Trump's] obsequiousness to [Russian President Vladimir] Putin was about a pee tape," Granholm wrote on Twitter in September. She also called for an "independent investigation of Russia/Trump collusion" after Trump fired former FBI Director James Comey while the agency was investigating such claims.
