Chairman Jim Jorder requests 'Crossfire Hurricane' document from FBI chief Kash Patel

Details surrounding the wild and politically motivated "Crossfire Hurricane" investigation by the FBI has long been buried, but with new leadership in the right positions, that could soon change.

According to JustTheNews, Rep. Jim Jordan, the chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, wants FBI Director Kash Patel "to comply with his committee’s requests for the truth about the FBI’s deeply flawed investigation into and promotion of the Trump-Russia collusion hoax."

Jordan made the request in a letter sent this week.

The congressman's primary interest is in the FBI handing over a mountain of documents tied to the Russia collusion hoax investigation.

What's going on?

In the letter, Jordan informed Patel that "the Committee still must fully assess and understand the lengths to which the FBI went to interfere in the 2016 presidential election."

"During the 117th and 118th Congresses, the Committee sent several letters requesting information and documents concerning the FBI’s failings in opening and conducting an investigation — code named ‘Crossfire Hurricane’ — into debunked allegations of collusion between President Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign and the Russian government,” Jordan’s letter read.

He added, "Unfortunately, former Director Wray failed to produce many of these materials before he resigned."

"Tellingly, however, former Director Wray and former Attorney General Merrick Garland refused the Committee’s repeated requests for relevant records, including records comparing the Crossfire Hurricane investigation to the FBI’s investigation of Hillary Clinton," the letter continued.

"Additionally, subsequent FBI operations have been similarly marred by political bias and an apparent disregard for fundamental rights, showing that any ‘corrective actions’ the FBI may have adopted in the aftermath of the Crossfire Hurricane investigation have been entirely ineffective."

JustTheNews noted:

Special Counsel John Durham’s 2023 report said the launch of the FBI’s Crossfire Hurricane was hugely flawed and that an “objective and honest assessment” of the facts “should have caused the FBI to question not only the predication for Crossfire Hurricane, but also to reflect on whether the FBI was being manipulated for political or other purposes,” but “unfortunately, it did not.”

Full compliance

Congressional Republicans have attempted to get ahold of the documents for years, only to be stonewalled at the time by former President Joe Biden's administration.

Other reports indicated that Patel is fully on board with complying with a backlog of subpoena requests.

Many are anxiously awaiting for the documents to be turned over in not only the Crossfire Hurricane investigation, but also in other FBI investigations that were highly controversial under the Trump administration.

It'll be fascinating, if not overall sickening, to see what's discovered as a result.
