It’s hard to believe it’s been ten years since Barack Obama’s team of treasonous liars and thieves concocted the Russia collusion hoax, and that we still don’t have the full story. It’s almost 2026, and we’re just now learning that many of President Donald Trump’s first-term appointees actively worked to help spread the hoax that Moscow had swayed the 2016 election and installed Donald Trump in the White House. You can probably guess who some of those people are.

The Russia collusion hoax crippled Donald Trump’s first term in office. The entire mainstream media and the political class were consumed by it. The hoax, which most of them claimed was true, was the only thing they talked about for three years. Even though the Russian potty dossier has been completely debunked as a fabricated hoax, originated by Hillary Clinton’s team of dirty campaign tricksters, there are still people to this day who believe it.

Early in 2017, former House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes (R-CA) launched an investigation into the Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) that the Obama administration had fabricated about Russian collusion with the Trump campaign. Kash Patel was one of Nunes’ main investigators.

When the Intelligence Committee issued its final report in 2018, it showed conclusively that Barack Obama, Joe Biden, James Comey, and John Brennan had all been directly involved in fabricating the ICA to try to help Hillary Clinton’s campaign. The intel agencies immediately classified the final report.

The closest that Nunes could come to releasing his committee’s report was to place it in a secret squirrel room in the basement of the Capitol. Anyone with a high enough security clearance could go into the room and read it. But they couldn’t take photocopies or notes, and they weren’t allowed to tell the public what was in it.

One person with a security clearance who was curious about the report was Trump’s National Security Advisor John Bolton’s chief of staff, Fred Fleitz. Mr. Fleitz used to be a CIA analyst, and he had the clearances necessary to read Nunes’ report. He was stunned to learn that investigators had proven the whole thing was a hoax. It was based on fabricated “intelligence.”

Fleitz briefed his boss on the contents of the report. But Bolton never shared the information with President Trump. In fact, he never mentioned the Russia collusion hoax again until after Trump fired him, when he suddenly had lots to say about the president on Fake News CNN.

Trump’s creepy and murderous former CIA Director Mike Pompeo also tried to hamper the House Intel Committee’s investigation. Derek Harvey was a senior advisor to the committee during Trump’s first term. Harvey says the committee showed Pompeo a draft of its final report, and Pompeo tried to refute it.

“We showed him a draft but he didn’t believe it,” says Harvey. “He said we have to be wrong on a lot of this stuff.”

“We didn’t get a lot of cooperation from Pompeo,” added Harvey.

Uh huh.

Pompeo hasn’t responded to media requests for comment on this yet. He’s busy at his new job as an advisor for a defense contractor in Ukraine called Fire Point.

And do you remember when special counsel John Durham was going to expose the whole thing and send all the crooks to prison? Good ol’ “Bulldog” Durham!

In the final days before the 2020 election, President Trump directed then-National Intelligence Director John Ratcliffe to declassify the Nunes report and get it out there for the public to finally see. Ratcliffe dutifully tried to comply with a direct order from the Commander in Chief.

But good ol’ Bulldog Durham blocked Ratcliffe at the last minute. He claimed that he was using the House report to investigate all the bad hombres from the Obama regime. If the report was declassified, he said it would damage the investigation and all of those prosecutions he was planning.

We all remember how that worked out. Durham tried to prosecute one CIA analyst for fabricating evidence that was used to secure FISA warrants against Carter Page and failed to secure a conviction.

These are just a handful of Trump’s own team members from his first term, who actively promoted the Russia hoax. We only know this because of documents that current DNI Tulsi Gabbard has declassified and released. Which is why the intel apparatus hates her and is still trying to destroy her.

Will these people ever be brought to justice?
