FBI opened investigation against Trump one week after Comey's firing

Declassified FBI memos reveal bureau opened probe into whether Trump was a Russian agent after Comey firing

The White House released declassified FBI documents showing the bureau launched a counterintelligence investigation into whether President Trump was acting as a Russian agent, a probe that produced no charges and that a later special counsel called deeply flawed.

Seven days after Trump fired FBI Director James Comey in May 2017, senior bureau officials signed off on an investigation codenamed "Oxferd Comma." Its stated purpose: to determine whether the sitting president of the United States was "directed by, controlled by, and/or coordinated activities with, the Russian Federation." The investigation ran for nearly two years. It ended on April 9, 2019, with no charges filed against Trump.

The memos, released by the White House on Wednesday, lay bare the FBI's internal reasoning for opening the probe, and expose how quickly the bureau escalated its suspicions about a president who had exercised his lawful authority to remove a subordinate. FBI opened the probe one week after Comey's firing.

The May 16, 2017 memo that launched Oxferd Comma was approved by then-FBI General Counsel James A. Baker and Bill Priestap, the assistant director of the bureau's counterintelligence division. The memo framed the investigation as a national security matter, not merely a criminal one.

The document stated that the FBI sought to:

"determine if President Trump is or was directed by, controlled by, and/or coordinated activities with, the Russian Federation in a manner constituting a threat to the national security of the United States and/or a violation of federal criminal statutes"

The bureau sits under the U.S. Department of Justice and answers directly to the Attorney General who was Jeff Sessions at that time. Jeff Sessions remained the U.S. Attorney General after FBI Director James Comey was fired on May 9, 2017.

Sessions did not lose his job at that time; (he was fired by Trump in 2018) rather, he had already recused himself from the Russia investigation, meaning Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein took over specific supervisory oversight regarding Comey's replacement and the appointment of Special Counsel Robert Mueller.

Comey Responds to Indictment: 'I'm Innocent'

former FBI Director James Comey says he is innocent

"My heart is broken for the Department of Justice. I have great confidence in the federal judicial system and I am innocent, so let's have a trial, and keep the faith," Comey said in the brief video posted to his Instagram account.

Comey was indicted by a federal grand jury Thursday on charges of making false statements and obstruction of justice — and President Trump applauded that “justice in America” is being served nearly a decade after Russiagate.

Ethics Complaint filed against Crooked Hillary

Hillary Clinton slapped with ethics complaint over her involvement in perpetuating the Russiagate scandal against President Trump

Twice-failed Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton could be in jeopardy of losing her license to practice law after an ethics complaint was filed against her in Arkansas, Fox News reported.

The organization Democracy Restored is going after the former Secretary of State because of her role in perpetuating the Russiagate scandal against President Donald Trump.

The complaint published on Wednesday asks the Arkansas Bar Association to make a "formal review of the conduct of Hillary Rodham Clinton, Esq., a licensed attorney in the State of Arkansas, in connection with her actions during the 2016 presidential campaign."

The filing cites the Arkansas Rules of Professional Conduct and asserts she violated the rules against "Dishonesty" and "Prejudice to the Administration of Justice."

James Clapper: Corruption Substantiated--Out to "get Trump"

Declassified Emails Show Clapper's Role in Russiagate

Former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper allegedly directed officials to "compromise" "normal" procedures to rush a politicized 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment – despite concerns from then-Director of the National Security Agency Mike Rogers, who allegedly said his team did not have "enough time" to review the intelligence to be "absolutely confident" that Russia was involved in the 2016 election.

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard declassified emails Wednesday. Fox News Digital obtained the declassified records.

"The leading figures in the Russia hoax have spent years deceiving the American public by presenting their manufactured and politicized assessments as credible intelligence," Gabbard told Fox News Digital.

"The email released today reinforces what we already exposed: the decision to compromise standards and violate protocols in the creation of the 2017 manufactured intelligence assessment was deliberate and came from the very top."

"Clapper’s own words confirm that complying with the order to manufacture intelligence was a ‘team sport,’" Gabbard claimed.

Obama: Presidential Immunity on the Russia Hoax

Presidential immunity prediction hit Obama with one legal reality that just devastated the former President

Obama administration "politicized and weaponized" intelligence surrounding the Trump-Russia hoax in 2016

Barack Obama thought his presidential immunity would shield him from any consequences.

But the legal framework isn’t as bulletproof as he hoped.

And Ted Cruz devastated Obama with one legal reality that has the former President’s legal team scrambling. "But where the criminal liability will start is with members of the Obama administration who went under oath before Congress and lied. Flat out lied," Cruz said.

Now we’re talking. Presidential immunity doesn’t cover perjury committed by underlings. Cruz wasn’t done naming names either.

"We know Jim Clapper has lied repeatedly. And that will be the beginning of the investigation. Also, fabricating evidence," Cruz added.

This is brilliant legal strategy when you think about it. You can’t touch the president for official acts, but you can absolutely prosecute his subordinates for lying to Congress about those acts.

Cruz just laid out the prosecution roadmap that has Obama’s former team probably speed-dialing their criminal attorneys.

Former federal prosecutor Joe diGenova says there is “no doubt” there was a conspiracy to take down President-elect Donald Trump and violate his civil rights. “The President of the United States Barack Obama authorized the FBI to investigate [the Russia collusion theory] knowing that it was false,” he explains. “Barack Obama should get the first grand jury subpoena. There needs to be a grand jury, there needs to be a special counsel. The grand jury needs to be in the southern district of Florida where the Mar-a-Lago raid occurred because that was one of the ultimate outcomes of the beginning of that conspiracy to violate Donald Trump’s civil rights.”

‘MUST Be Prosecuted’: Conservatives React To Tulsi Bombshell On Obama Russia Hoax

Gabbard said all parties'"involved in this conspiracy must be investigated and prosecuted

Conservatives are calling for accountability and the prosecution of bad actors involved in the Russian collusion hoax outlined on Friday by Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard.

Gabbard declassified documents revealing the Obama administration changed intelligence assessments after the 2016 election to create a narrative of Russian interference, despite earlier intelligence community findings that Russia “did not impact” the election through cyber activities, The Daily Wire reported.

“Every person involved in this conspiracy must be investigated and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law,” Gabbard asserted, adding that she was “providing all documents” to the Department of Justice to deliver “accountability.”

Russiagate Exposed - Dirty Politics

Gabbard: Obama Faked 2016 Russia Election Intel

Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, has declassified documents revealing "overwhelming evidence" showing how then-President Barack Obama and his national security team laid the groundwork for what would become the years-long Trump-Russia collusion investigation after President Trump won the 2016 election.

Tulsi Gabbard:

Americans will finally learn the truth about how in 2016, intelligence was politicized and weaponized by the most powerful people in the Obama Administration to lay the groundwork for what was essentially a years-long coup against President Trump, subverting the will of the American people and undermining our democratic republic.

The Russian Hoax explained by Kash Patel

The media was in on the Russiagate scam from day one

The media wasn’t just reporting on Russiagate – they were active participants in the conspiracy.

"That warrant that initially kicked off the FISA surveillance on the Trump campaign writ large was substantiated by FBI leaks to the media," Patel told Rogan.

Here’s how the scam worked:

• FBI officials like Peter Strzok, Andy McCabe, and James Comey would leak information to outlets like Mother Jones and Yahoo News.
• Then those same FBI officials would use those news articles as evidence in their FISA warrant applications.
• "And then they in the application would be like, hey, it’s not just us saying that Trump’s a Russian asset, right? Look at this article, Mr. Judge, on the federal FISA court. And they included it in that application," Patel explained.

Think about how corrupt this scheme really was.

The FBI was creating their own "evidence" by leaking to friendly reporters, then using those articles to justify spying on a presidential candidate.

Security Clearances revoked at Perkins Coie Law Firm

President Donald Trump signed multiple Executive Orders yesterday

Dennis Michael Lynch: "One included revoking security clearances for employees at Perkins Coie, the law firm linked to Hillary Clinton and the discredited 2016 Russia collusion dossier.

The dossier, largely discredited for its claim of Trump working with Russia to rig the election, fueled a costly Special Counsel investigation that ultimately found no substantiated claims.

John Durham’s 2023 report confirmed the FBI failed to verify any key allegations.

The executive order holds the law firm accountable for political lawfare and government weaponization. The White House posted numerous details of offenses by Perkins Coie over the years, such as collaborating with activist donors like George Soros to overturn voter ID laws.

The DOJ also accused Perkins Coie of racial discrimination and that the firm enforced racial hiring quotas that violated civil rights laws until lawsuits forced changes. The firm also hosted an FBI workspace, raising concerns about partisan misuse of sensitive data, and filed lawsuits against the Trump administration, including one aimed at reducing military readiness."

Senator Marco Rubio, also serving as the Vice Chairman of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, is among the first to release a statement, condemning the FBI for their partisan political gain and warning of its damaging impact on national security.

The report reveals serious and unforgivable breaches of federal law enforcement activities, and there is no justification in using national security tools for manipulating elections and harming institutions

Rubio calls for rigorous oversight of FBI’s intelligence activities by the Congressional intelligence committees and emphasizes the need to hold those accountable for any damage caused.

DeSantis slammed federal law enforcement officials over Durham Report

DeSantis Goes to War Over New Durham Report

• Ron DeSantis blasted the federal government over the results of the Durham Report.

• John Durham revealed the FBI knew the Russian accusations against Trump were false.

• DeSantis called for leaders to “clean house” at federal agencies who abuse their power.

The D.C. swamp is reeling from the final report from Special Counsel John Durham. In it, Durham exposes the FBI for its part in the Russian collusion hoax. The FBI knew early on that claims Trump was working with Russia were false. There was no credible evidence to support it.

But the FBI went ahead and investigated Trump, giving the media ammunition to undermine his presidency.

Americans from all walks of life are understandably outraged. The Democrats used the FBI to push their political agenda. One of Trump’s top rivals is speaking out on this news. And perhaps Trump wasn’t expecting this kind of response.

Lack of Journalistic integrity and truth will re-elect Trump

John Durham’s Report and a Presidency in Crisis

The press covers its eyes about Joe Biden and helps re-elect Donald Trump

By By Holman W. Jenkins, Jr. Wall Street Journal

If there wasn’t a “Clinton plan”—the phrase used 65 times in Monday’s published report by Justice Department special counsel John Durham—to tar then-rival Donald Trump as a Russian agent, there may have been a plan about what to say if anybody asked if there was a Clinton plan.

“Ridiculous” was the word used by campaign chairman John Podesta when interviewed by the special counsel. “Ridiculous,” said foreign-policy adviser Jake Sullivan. Mrs. Clinton at least mixed it up, calling the notion of a deliberate smear campaign “very sad” and a “rabbit hole.”

For a plan that didn’t exist, it was remarkably effective. The Steele dossier was a tissue of lies made up by a Clinton-paid investigator who “simply fabricated” sources and information. The Alfa Bank allegation, the Yotaphone allegation—don’t ask—were inventions promoted by a Democratic lawyer who claimed his clients were an amalgam of “Gilligan’s Island” actors residing at EPA headquarters.

Crooked Hillary, Crooked Joe Biden and Crooked Democrats

Hillary’s Russian Collusion Plan Was Briefed by John Brennan to Obama and Biden in August 2016!

According to Just the News, Special Counsel John Durham has released his final report which states that the FBI had no verified intelligence to support the opening of the Crossfire Hurricane investigation into Trump in 2016.

The investigation, which was opened by Peter Strzok in July of 2016, was based on suspicions of Russian infiltration into Trump’s campaign. However, these suspicions were not supported by any evidence.

The message suggests that the investigation on CI was initiated by false claims created by Hillary Clinton and her fabricated Russia dossier. Based on John Durham’s report, it highlights how Hillary Clinton aimed to connect Trump’s campaign with Russia and informed John Brennan about it. Later on, Brennan shared this plan with Barack Obama and Joe Biden in August 2016, as per the report.

FBI used uncorroborated intel - The Durham Report

After 4-year probe, Durham report slams FBI for actions in Russia investigation

Durham’s long-awaited, 316-page report slams the FBI’s handling of the Trump-Russia probe as deeply flawed.

The Justice Department and FBI "failed to uphold their important mission of strict fidelity to the law," Durham concluded in his report, according to an executive summary reviewed by ABC News.

Durham’s report stops just short of saying that political bias drove the FBI’s decisions, saying that while there was evidence of strong political views on the part of some investigators, the FBI’s handling of the Trump probe exhibited clear “confirmation bias” in favor of a likely plot by the Russians.

The 51 spies who lied openly to the American public

Who Are the 9 Secret Intel Officials Who Signed on to the Hunter Biden Laptop Disinfo Letter “Who Cannot Be Named Publicly”

More on this as it's so fascinating that our Intelligence Community could Lie with such impudence

During the second presidential debate in 2020, Joe Biden and hack reporter Kristen Welker teamed up against President Trump.

At one point, Joe Biden interrupted Welker for his planned response to the Hunter Biden Laptop from Hell scandal. Joe Biden told the audience 50 intelligence leaders signed a letter saying the laptop was “Russian propaganda.”

The intel leaders all lied. They knew it was a lie. Joe Biden knew it was a lie. The media knew this was a lie. But it was not just the 51 intel officers who signed the letter. Another 9 intel officers signed the letter but were too cowardly to go public.

So, who can you trust?

Hunter Laptop

CIA agent with Integrity

Former CIA Agent Breaks Down Why He Refused To Sign Off On Hunter’s Laptop Letter

The Hunter Biden laptop story is one of the most talked about political scandals of 2020 and it’s no surprise that it caused a frenzy of political drama shortly before the election. The laptop so obviously contained incriminating evidence against then-candidate Joe Biden, including details about his personal life and business dealings.

Former CIA official Dan Hoffman, now retired, recently opened up about why he did not sign the letter from 51 former intelligence officials claiming the laptop story could be part of a Russian disinformation operation. He said that, although Vladimir Putin is well-known for cloak-and-dagger espionage operations, there was no evidence to back the claims of Russian involvement.

Ultimately, the letter was used by then-candidate Biden to cast doubt on the laptop story during one of his debates with then-President Donald Trump. Sadly, the big lie gave Biden a big advantage in the 2020 election. Democrats can't win honestly.

Deep State runs things in Washington DC

Here is How the FBI Got Away with One of the Worst Crimes in American History…

According to Democrats an attempt to question the results of a presidential election make one guilty of one of the most serious of crimes.

For the FBI these rules apparently do not apply. Kevin Clinesmith, a former FBI lawyer who admitted to intentionally altering emails that were used to justify the Russia investigation, has been punished with only a one year suspension of his ability to practice law in Washington D.C.

Clinesmith claims that he intentionally edited emails but that he only inserted things that he believed were true and did not intentionally lie.

Clinesmith did lie and falsify, intentionally or not, and in doing so enabled the FBI attempt to undermine the Trump presidency with a story of Russian puppet masters influencing the election.

Clinesmith and the FBI actively and knowingly forged information in an attempt to secure a basis for their anti-Trump investigation.

Trump had no ties to Russian Financial Institution says FBI agent

FBI Agent Reveals Shocking Timeline Of Trump Conspiracy Investigation

An FBI agent said Tuesday that it took him and another agent “less than a day” to determine that the allegation that former President Donald Trump had ties to a Russian financial institution was false and pushed by Hillary Clinton campaign lawyer Michael Sussman.

FBI Supervisory Special Agent Scott Hellman said “it took him and another agent less than a day to ascertain the data and ‘white papers’ on two thumb drives Sussmann gave Baker did not support the Trump-Alfa Bank ‘secret connection’ allegation.” Hellman took the stand on the first day of Sussman’s trial for allegedly lying to the FBI.

Sussman was found not guilty in lying to the FBI in the John Durham investigation last year.

Trump has sued Clinton and Sussman, among other Democrats, for “malicious” allegations that his 2016 campaign colluded with Russia. He is seeking $24 million in damages. I hope Sussman gets convicted.
