Trump Orders Immediate Declassification of FBI Crossfire Hurricane Files

The move aims to provide transparency on the controversial 2016 investigation into alleged Trump-Russia ties, criticized for lacking evidence and procedural integrity.

  • President Trump signed an executive order on Tuesday directing the FBI to declassify all documents related to the Crossfire Hurricane investigation.
  • The 2016 FBI investigation sought to probe alleged coordination between Trump’s campaign and Russia but was later criticized for relying on the Steele dossier, funded by the Clinton campaign and the DNC.
  • The 2023 Durham report concluded that the FBI lacked sufficient evidence to justify the investigation and failed to uphold legal standards.
  • Trump has framed the declassification as a step toward exposing alleged political weaponization within government agencies and ensuring public accountability.
  • The declassified files are expected to reignite debates over the investigation’s legitimacy and the broader implications for government transparency and accountability.
