Evidence of a Deep State conspiracy to undermine Donald Trump’s first presidency continues to pile up.
The director of the FBI discovered thousands of sensitive documents related to the Russia Collusion hoax in “burn bags” set to be destroyed, according to a Fox News exclusive report based on confidential sources. That news broke the day before Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) declassified documents that provide more evidence that the FBI covered up a Hillary Clinton campaign plot to fabricate election-meddling connections between Donald Trump and Russia.
Grassley’s office announced on Thursday the release of the annex to John Durham’s 2023 Special Counsel report. “The Durham annex contains previously classified information exposing a reported Clinton campaign plan to falsely tie President Donald Trump to Russia,” Grassley’s office said in an announcement of its release. He called the Russia Collusion hoax “one of the biggest political scandals and cover-ups in American history.” Moreover, Grassley said:
Based on the Durham annex, the Obama FBI failed to adequately review and investigate intelligence reports showing the Clinton campaign may have been ginning up the fake Trump-Russia narrative for Clinton’s political gain, which was ultimately done through the Steele Dossier and other means. These intelligence reports and related records, whether true or false, were buried for years. History will show that the Obama and Biden administration’s law enforcement and intelligence agencies were weaponized against President Trump. This political weaponization has caused critical damage to our institutions and is one of the biggest political scandals and cover-ups in American history. The new Trump administration has a tremendous responsibility to the American people to fix the damage done and do so with maximum speed and transparency.
The Durham annex includes information on how Representative and then-Democratic National Committee Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-Fla.) and people at George Soros’ Open Society Foundations were involved in crafting a narrative designed to blunt public scrutiny of Clinton’s email server scandal while broadcasting at high decibels the lie of Trump’s election collusion with Russia. According to a partial summary of the annex:
The Durham annex describes that, in July 2016, the FBI received additional intelligence regarding a possible Clinton Campaign Plan, including documents with purported emails allegedly sent by Leonard Benardo, Senior Vice President of Soros’ Open Society Foundations. The intelligence included data providing specificity on the plan and the attempt to smear then-candidate Donald Trump by falsely linking him to Russia, while apparently counting on the support of the FBI to open up an investigation.
In one instance, Benardo wrote that he expected the FBI to “put more oil into the fire,” a reference to the idea that once the propaganda was out, the FBI would legitimatize it. That move would strike two birds with one stone. In addition to shining the spotlight on the fake Trump scandal, it would deflect from Clinton’s authentic email scandal. He also wrote in an email that Clinton approved the “idea about Trump and Russian hackers hampering U.S. elections,” adding, “That should distract people from her own missing email[s], especially if the affair goes to the Olympic level.” You can read the annex here.
The secret documents discovered by FBI Director Kash Patel included elements of the annex Grassley just released. Patel, CIA Director John Ratcliffe, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, Attorney General Pam Bondi, and acting National Security Agency Director William Hartman collaborated on declassifying the annex.
Reportedly, this came about when Patel and his team found a sensitive compartmented information facility (SCIF) in FBI headquarters. That’s where the burn bags filled with documents lay. Patel talked about this finding with popular podcaster Joe Rogan in June. He claimed that the former director of the FBI, James Comey, intentionally hid the documents:
Me, as director of the FBI, the former “Russiagate guy,” when I first got to the bureau, found a room that Comey and others hid from the world in the Hoover Building, full of documents and computer hard drives that no one had ever seen or heard of. Locked the key and hid access and just said, “No one’s ever gonna find this place.”… So my guys are going through that right now.
Patel turned over the documents to Grassley.
The release of the annex comes on the heels of other pivotal developments. On July 18, Gabbard released a bombshell 114-page report alleging that former President Barack Obama and his national security team collaborated on a “treasonous conspiracy.” They cited knowingly erroneous opposition research funded by the Clinton campaign to support the allegation that Trump colluded with the Russians to win in 2016. Gabbard’s report details how Obama ordered a false assessment that contradicted multiple previous intel assessments for the purpose of creating the Russia Collusion hoax that plagued Trump for most of his first presidency. The report also provides insight into how the Deep State utilizes the mainstream media once it has cooked up a conspiracy. You can read more about it here.
Since the release of Gabbard’s report, multiple suspects have been referred for prosecution. Gabbard announced days after releasing her report that Obama has been referred to the DOJ for criminal prosecution.
Days later, CIA Director John Ratcliffe announced during a guest appearance on Sunday Morning Futures with Maria Bartiromo that he has referred several additional players involved in that conspiracy to the Justice Department for criminal charges. They include former CIA Director John Brennan, Comey, and Hillary Clinton.
On July 26, FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino published an ominous message on his X social media account. “What I have learned in the course of our properly predicated and necessary investigations into these aforementioned matters, has shocked me down to my core,” he said. “We cannot run a Republic like this.” Bongino said he will never be the same after what he learned.
There has been a lot of speculation about what caused Bongino to say that. Given how deep the rot goes and how long endemic corruption within our government has existed, he could’ve been disturbed by a number of discoveries. But whatever he saw, and in conjunction with what we continue to learn, the American people can’t go wrong with exponentially reducing the size of government.
The United States government is unrecognizable from the one prescribed and set up by the Founding Fathers. It is a behemoth of agencies, most of which were created in the 20th century. These agencies pile on debt and exert influence over every aspect of life. Worse, Americans find themselves with not only a large, expensive government, but a large, expensive government that has turned on them. A government that has been weaponized against the very people it’s supposed to serve and protect. Whatever reform is coming, it will almost certainly not be enough to prevent another Russia Collusion hoax. What is needed is a reduction in federal police agencies, along with an equal increase in transparency at the risk of prosecution and defunding.
