Patel sends declassified Crossfire Hurricane docs on Russiagate scandal to Congress
Geplaatst: 12 apr 2025 00:12
FBI Director Kash Patel has transmitted to Congress hundreds of pages of declassified documents from the bureau’s "Crossfire Hurricane" investigation related to false claims about Trump-Russia collusion, following a declassification executive order from President Donald Trump.
The nearly seven-hundred pages of declassified records have now also been obtained exclusively by Just the News. The release is labeled the “Crossfire Hurricane Redacted Binder” and is dated April 9, 2025.
The move by Trump and Patel follows an executive order by the president in March, after his prior efforts to declassify the FBI’s Russiagate scandal records in the final days of his first term were thwarted by his own Justice Department in January 2021. It also comes after the Biden-era DOJ and FBI under ex-Attorney General Merrick Garland and former FBI Director Christopher Wray spent four years refusing to make the records public.
The FBI’s investigation targeting both candidate and then-President Trump in 2016 and beyond began with ginned-up allegations of collusion between Trump and the Russian government, but Crossfire Hurricane was soon exposed as a ”Deep State” plot by politicized intelligence and law enforcement agencies to target Trump.
