Declassified Documents and the Durham Report

  • 📌 Newly declassified documents from the Durham report have been made public, shedding light on the origins of the Trump-Russia investigation.
  • 💡 Senator Chuck Grassley highlights that these documents were reportedly stored in an annex and found in burn bags, suggesting an attempt to conceal information.
  • 🎯 Grassley states these documents provide evidence of the deep state's efforts to cover up the weaponization of the FBI and executive branch under the Obama administration.

Allegations of Conspiracy and Cover-Up

  • 🔍 The released information suggests a potential Clinton conspiracy or Russian disinformation campaign aimed at stopping Trump's election or undermining his presidency.
  • 📄 It is indicated that the FBI possessed information years ago, including details about the Steele dossier paid for by the Democrats and Clinton campaign, which they did not act upon.
  • ✅ The documents are presented as proof that the FBI was involved in a cover-up, with the annex finally proving this after years of effort to obtain the information.

'Smoking Gun' and Transparency

  • 💥 Grassley suggests the declassified annex, along with previous releases like the Crossfire Hurricane annex, points to a coordinated plan within the US government to aid the Clinton campaign and falsely connect Trump to Russia.
  • 🗣️ He emphasizes the need for maximum transparency regarding government actions and investigations, stating that the public's business should be public.

Response to Critics

  • 💬 Regarding op-eds by John Brennan and James Clapper in the New York Times, Grassley believes they are attempting to cover their tracks due to their involvement in the alleged conspiracy.
  • ❓ When asked about a Fox News report connecting George Soros to the documents, Grassley stated he did not have that information but would investigate.
