Sprawling ‘Russiagate’ Probe Could Lead To Criminal Charges: Report

A trove of long-suppressed classified documents—allegedly revealing government efforts to frame Donald Trump as colluding with Vladimir Putin during the 2016 election—may soon be released. Two Trump administration officials told RealClearInvestigations that senior aides held an urgent meeting Sunday to review “new information on Russiagate,” potentially supporting a criminal conspiracy case against Obama and Biden political appointees accused of weaponizing federal agencies against Trump.

Among the records is a previously hidden 200-page congressional audit outlining how an Obama-ordered intelligence assessment was crafted to depict Trump as loyal to the Kremlin. Sources say emails and documents linking the CIA’s role in drafting the Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) to the FBI’s now-discredited “Crossfire Hurricane” probe could be declassified in an ODNI report as early as Thursday. The White House was briefed on this Tuesday.

The Sunday meeting also considered declassifying Special Counsel John Durham’s investigative notes and deposition transcripts from his probe into how the CIA and FBI handled the ICA, which partly relied on an anti-Trump dossier funded by Hillary Clinton’s campaign. The records could strengthen a criminal case against former intelligence chiefs like ex-CIA Director John Brennan, accused of lying to Congress about the dossier’s use.

Additional documents discussed include a classified appendix to Durham’s final report, purportedly showing Clinton’s campaign plotted to fabricate the Trump–Russia scandal to divert attention from her email investigation—an alleged scheme ignored by the FBI during “Crossfire Hurricane.”

Officials also reviewed an annex from the inspector general’s review of the FBI’s handling of Clinton’s unsecured email server, highlighting foreign access to classified information and the FBI’s failure to investigate, contrasting with the aggressive pursuit of Trump investigations. Senior officials from ODNI and DOJ, plus members of the President’s Intelligence Advisory Board and the DOJ’s Weaponization Working Group, attended the meeting. Notably absent were DNI Tulsi Gabbard and Attorney General Pam Bondi.
