President Donald Trump has ordered the immediate declassification of all FBI documents related to the Russia hoax investigation.

“This gives the media the right to go in and check it. You probably won’t bother ’cause you’re not gonna like what you see,” Trump said on Tuesday. “This was total weaponization. It’s a disgrace. It should never happen in this country. But now you’ll be able to see for yourselves, all declassified.”

The decision follows demands from Republican senators last week for the FBI and Department of Justice to release documents related to the investigation, which they argue will “expose corruption” within the agencies.

Crossfire Hurricane was launched by the FBI in 2016 to investigate alleged ties between Trump’s campaign and Russia. However, a special counsel investigation led by John Durham found that the probe was based on false information. Durham’s 2023 report concluded that the FBI lacked sufficient “factual evidence” to justify the investigation and that both the FBI and DOJ “failed to uphold their mission of strict fidelity to the law.”

“Neither US law enforcement nor the Intelligence Community appears to have possessed any actual evidence of collusion in their holdings at the commencement of the Crossfire Hurricane investigation,” Durham wrote in his over 300-page report.
