BREAKING: New Emails Suggest Hillary Clinton Personally Approved Trump-Russia Hoax
A joint investigation by the CIA and FBI into “burn bags” found to contain missing information from the government’s investigation into the 2016 election seems to suggest that Hillary Clinton personally signed off on efforts to baselessly tie President Donald Trump to claims of Russian interference.
Together, CIA Director John Ratcliffe and FBI Director Kash Patel have unveiled evidence found in a secret room deep within the Bureau, which allegedly contains a classified annex that was part of special counsel John Durham’s report on the government’s investigation. Durham in 2023 concluded that no evidence of collusion between Trump and Russian forces ever existed, echoing findings by special counsel Robert Mueller that the Obama administration should never have pursued the link.
According to the annex, Durham confirmed that Russian hackers infiltrated the email servers for the Open Society Foundations, a George Soros-linked organization also implicated in the Trump-Russia hoax. An email by Leonard Bernardo, who in 2016 was the regional director for Eurasia at the Open Society Foundations, appears to show that Clinton personally approved a conspiracy by the organization to spread the baseless allegations against her opponent.
“HRC approved Julia’s idea about Trump and Russian hackers hampering U.S. elections,” Bernardo wrote in the email, which was found within the newly uncovered Durham annex. “That should distract people from her own missing email, especially if the affair goes to the Olympic level,” he added.
Bernardo goes on to discuss U.S. intelligence findings suggesting that hackers in the GRU, Russia’s elite special forces unit, had “penetrated” targets within the U.S.
“Say something like a critical infrastructure threat for the election to feel menace since both POTUS and VPOTUS have acknowledged the fact [intelligence community] would speed up searching for evidence that is regrettably still unavailable,” he explained.
The document’s discovery amounts to a bombshell finding for the Trump administration, which for weeks has attempted to redirect the media’s focus back toward the Trump-Russia hoax.
Last week, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard confirmed that she had referred former President Barack Obama to the U.S. Justice Department for criminal prosecution, alleging he was involved in authorizing the investigation despite no evidence tying Trump to Russia. Her referral came on the heels of news that President Trump’s intelligence community is exploring bringing charges against other alleged participants, including former FBI Director James Comey and former CIA Director John Brennan.

Clinton spent the latter half of the 2016 election hamstrung by a controversy involving up to 30,000 emails missing from her time as secretary of state. Bernardo’s email is the latest evidence that Trump allies have produced alleging that Clinton conspired with members of the Obama administration to deflect by accusing Trump of conspiring with foreign actors to undermine confidence in America’s elections.
