Exclusive: U.S. Intelligence Predicted FBI’s Role in Trump-Russia Narrative
Rumors and theories about the role of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) in the Trump-Russia collusion narrative have been gaining traction, with credible foreign sources suggesting that the bureau’s actions were anticipated before it launched its controversial Crossfire Hurricane probe, according to sources that spoke with Fox News Digital. The intelligence, which includes information from foreign entities, indicated that the FBI would be involved in spreading the salacious narrative about Trump and Russia before the bureau ever initiated the investigation.
CIA Director John Ratcliffe is set to declassify the underlying intelligence related to former Special Counsel John Durham’s investigation into the origins of the Trump-Russia probe. The declassification is expected to include a classified annex that outlines the details of the intelligence and its implications for the investigation. The process of declassifying the information is being coordinated with several key officials, including Attorney General Pam Bondi and Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley, who will ultimately be responsible for releasing the document to the public.
A source who has access to the classified annex told Fox News Digital that the intelligence collection showed a surprising level of precision in predicting the FBI’s next move. The source emphasized that with the benefit of hindsight, the intelligence predicted the FBI’s actions ‘with alarming specificity.’ The source, who requested anonymity due to the sensitive nature of the information, noted that it may not have been clear at the time what the intelligence meant, but the outcome is now evident.
