Dershowitz claims to have proof Obama asked FBI to investigate 'somebody on behalf of George Soros'

Harvard law professor Alan Dershowitz insisted he has information showing that President Barack Obama "personally asked" the FBI to investigate someone "on behalf" of billionaire financier George Soros.

Speaking with Breitbart News in an interview that aired Sunday on SiriusXM, President Trump's impeachment attorney weighed in on the president's tweets about the case against his longtime associate Roger Stone and the Department of Justice's decision to scale back Stone's recommended sentence. Dershowitz defended the DOJ's move, which resulted in more than a thousand former department officials calling on Attorney General William Barr to resign.

"There was a lot of White House control of the Justice Department during the Kennedy administration, and I don't think we saw very many liberal professors arguing against that," he said.

"I have some information as well about the Obama administration, which will be disclosed in a lawsuit at some point, but I'm not prepared to disclose it now, about how President Obama personally asked the FBI to investigate somebody on behalf of George Soros, who was a close ally of his," he continued, without naming a specific target.

Dershowitz added, "We've seen this kind of White House influence on the Justice Department virtually in every Justice Department. The difference is this president is much more overt about it. He tweets about it. President Obama whispered to the Justice Department about it. And, I don't think these 1,000 former Justice Department officials would pass the shoe-on-the-other-foot test. Maybe some of them would, but a good many of them wouldn't."
