Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche says the Justice Department has discovered a room filled with important documents tied to former special counsel Jack Smith’s investigation into President Donald Trump.
Speaking on a podcast, Blanche said the room was not technically “secret,” but DOJ personnel were unaware of it. He said the materials were found in burn bags, which are normally used to destroy sensitive documents.
Blanche said the location of the bags raised questions. This raises the question: Why were these documents not burned? Blanche floated a theory that an honorable agent may have placed them somewhere unusual to preserve the records rather than let them be destroyed. The discovery follows comments from FBI Director Kash Patel and former Deputy Director Dan Bongino about sensitive Trump-Russia probe documents found in burn bags at the FBI.
Bongino described one roughly 100-page document connected to Crossfire Hurricane as a “mother lode,” saying it changed his understanding of the entire Russia-collusion probe. Crossfire Hurricane was the FBI investigation into alleged Trump-Russia collusion that was based on a pack of lies and designed to facilitate a coup against President Trump that hampered his presidency for his entire first term. Last year, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard declassified documents showing that the Obama administration advanced claims about Russian interference that officials knew were bogus.
It is clear Blanche has all the evidence needed to prosecute deep state hacks and throw them behind bars for lengthy sentences. The time for excuses has ended. We are nearly a year and a half into President Trump’s second term. Time is running out. We need treason charges against Comey, Clapper, Brennan, Rosenstein, McCabe, Susan Rice and the rest of the Obama-Biden era co-conspirators.
