DOJ Issues 30+ Russiagate Subpoenas
The News
More than two dozen Russiagate-related subpoenas are being sent out, Just the News has learned, coming at the same time that the Justice Department’s prosecution of James Comey has resulted in the release of a host of new information about the fired FBI director as well as about the bureau’s secret stashing away of details on its investigations into Donald Trump.
A federal grand jury is in the process of issuing more than 30 subpoenas tied to the false claims of Trump-Russia collusion that were propagated by the U.S. intelligence community and federal law enforcement in 2016 and beyond, a source directly familiar with the matter who declined to be identified due to the sensitive nature of the investigations told Just the News on Thursday. Some of the subpoenas were sent out Thursday and more are likely to be sent Friday.
DOJ officials are also preparing to issue multiple grand jury subpoenas relating to an investigation into former CIA Director John Brennan tied to his handling of British ex-spy Christopher Steele’s discredited dossier and his involvement in the politicized intelligence community assessment on the 2016 election, Just the News has been told.
A grand jury has been empaneled in South Florida to handle investigations into the Russiagate saga, sources familiar with the inquiry who declined to be named due to the sensitive nature of the investigation told Just the News, and Brennan is being closely scrutinized.
The subpoenas are being sent out as new revelations indicate that Comey, who was indicted earlier this year in Virginia, expected former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to emerge victorious in 2016, that the ex-FBI director was aware of the so-called Clinton Plan intelligence wrongly linking Trump to Russia in that election, that key information on Crossfire Hurricane and other FBI investigations was hidden in burn bags at FBI headquarters, and that his friend and lawyer Daniel Richman allegedly leaked to the media despite FBI guidelines warning him not to.

Comey is charged with making false statements and obstructing Congress concerning testimony in 2020 in which he stood by earlier 2017 testimony saying he did not approve of anonymous leaks to the news media on high-profile cases involving Clinton's emails and Donald Trump's now-debunked ties to a Russian plot to influence the election. He has pleaded not guilty.
Comey, fired as FBI director in 2017 by President Trump, oversaw both the politicized investigation into Clinton's illicit use of a private email server to send classified information and the baseless Trump-Russia collusion inquiry.
Comey expected Clinton to win in 2016, according to newly-unearthed emails he sent to Richman.
Then-DOJ watchdog Michael Horowitz’s 2018 report criticized the FBI’s Midyear Exam investigation into Clinton’s illicit use of a private email server to send classified information while she was Secretary of State, concluding Comey’s actions were “extraordinary and insubordinate” when he announced Clinton wouldn’t be charged in a speech on July 5, 2016.
Comey had said in the speech that Clinton’s email practices were “extremely careless” but that he also allegedly believed “no reasonable prosecutor” would bring charges against her. Comey alerted Congress in October 2016 that further Clinton emails had been found on a laptop belonging to disgraced former Democratic Rep. Anthony Weiner, then the husband of top Clinton aide Huma Abedin. The files were on Weiner's laptop in a folder labeled "Life Insurance."
“Make sure you keep your eyes shut. The country can’t seem to handle your finding stuff,” Richman wrote to Comey on Oct. 29, 2016. Comey replied: “Thanks for the battling you have done against unreason. This is a strange time. B[u]t we press on.”
