The DOJ is investigating whether the FBI during Joe Biden\u2019s presidency secretly destroyed documents to protect James Comey and John Brennan, according to a leak to The New York Times.<\/p>\n
James Comey served as the Director of the FBI from 2013 to May 2017, when Trump fired him.<\/p>\n
John Brennan served as the Director of the CIA from 2013 to 2017.<\/p>\n
According to The Times, the investigation is related to a report <\/a>that revealed that Kash Patel found thousands of Russia Hoax documents in \u201cburn bags\u201d in a secret room at the FBI.<\/p>\n Last month, Fox News\u00a0reported<\/a> that FBI Director Kash Patel found thousands of Russia collusion hoax documents in \u201cburn bags\u201d in a secret room at the FBI.<\/span><\/p>\n One of the documents in the burn bags included the classified annex to the John Durham report that includes the underlying intelligence he investigated.<\/p>\n CIA Director John Ratcliffe recently declassified the annex to Durham\u2019s final report and sent it to Senator Grassley, who released it to the public.<\/p>\n Fox News also reported that Kash Patel and his team of investigators discovered a \u201cpreviously undisclosed\u201d SCIF at the FBI headquarters.<\/p>\n The Times reported that senior FBI officials who worked at the headquarters are also being investigated. <\/p>\n The New York Times reported<\/a>:<\/p>\n Pursuing a theory promoted by Trump loyalists, the Justice Department is investigating whether F.B.I. officials during and after the Biden administration tried to hide or secretly destroy documents that might cast doubt on the earlier inquiry into Russia\u2019s attempt to tilt the 2016 election in President Trump\u2019s favor, two people with knowledge of the matter said.<\/p>\n The steps taken by the Justice Department are the latest in a series of efforts by Mr. Trump and his allies to impugn the Russia investigation, which the president sees as having been a partisan witch hunt that unfairly dogged him throughout his first term.<\/p>\n The new inquiry seeks to determine if senior F.B.I. officials spent years working to cover up the supposed misdeeds of James B. Comey, the F.B.I. director at the time of the Russia investigation, and John O. Brennan, who was then the C.I.A. director, after the two men left government by squirreling away potentially damaging classified documents.<\/p>\n The disclosures bring into sharper focus how Kash Patel, now the F.B.I. director, is intent on substantiating longstanding claims Mr. Trump has peddled to his base that he was framed by the Obama administration. Under Mr. Patel and his deputy, Dan Bongino, the bureau has moved to oust employees they believe are disloyal or who have worked on investigations into Mr. Trump.<\/p>\n The investigation is examining the conduct of the bureau\u2019s former deputy director, Paul Abbate, a veteran agent who served in the role throughout the Biden administration and stepped down on Jan. 20, the day Mr. Trump was sworn into office, the people with knowledge of the matter said. Investigators are also examining conduct by other senior F.B.I. officials in the bureau\u2019s headquarters this year, they said.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n NEW and BREAKING: DOJ is investigating whether F.B.I. officials during and after the Biden administration tried to hide or secretly destroy documents as part of a decade long conspiracy to protect Comey and Brennan. w\/@DevlinBarrett<\/a> https:\/\/t.co\/QOMw4rtph4<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Michael S.
