The FBI has quietly opened an investigation into a decade’s worth of activities—from the Russia collusion narrative to the Jack Smith prosecutions—by Democratic operatives and elements of the intelligence community, according to a Monday report.

The probe could lead to the appointment of a special prosecutor to determine whether these well-documented episodes constitute a coordinated effort to influence three U.S. elections in favor of Democrats and to President Trump’s detriment, Just the News reported, citing unnamed sources within the administration.

The “grand conspiracy” investigation was launched several weeks ago under the new FBI Director, Kash Patel, and could gain momentum if President Trump declassifies two classified sets of evidence pointing to a potential origin of the alleged scheme in the summer of 2016, sources with direct knowledge told Just the News.

The first set comes from a classified annex to a years-old inspector general inquiry into Hillary Clinton’s private email server, obtained at the request of Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley, and is believed to reveal that the FBI deliberately overlooked credible allegations of misconduct.

The second tranche, labeled “Clinton plan intelligence” in Special Counsel John Durham’s final report on Russiagate, was similarly sequestered in a classified annex and withheld from both the public and most members of Congress, Just the News noted.

Earlier this month, CIA Director John Ratcliffe issued a harsh critique of the U.S. intelligence community’s handling of Russian interference in the 2016 election. He faulted former CIA Director John Brennan for aligning the agency with the FBI’s decision to incorporate ex-British spy Christopher Steele’s discredited anti-Trump dossier into official assessments.

Ratcliffe specifically concluded that Brennan “showed a preference for narrative consistency over analytical soundness.”

The CIA director then posted on social media regarding his report, calling the smear campaign against Trump an “atypical & corrupt process under the politically charged environments of former Dir. Brennan & former FBI Dir. Comey.”

If Trump declassifies the Grassley and Durham annexes, prosecutors could present them to a grand jury to illustrate a pattern of the FBI and intelligence community knowingly suppressing evidence harmful to Democrats while aggressively pursuing flawed claims against the president, Just the News added.

Separately, Trump administration officials are considering appointing a special prosecutor to investigate revelations, first reported by Just the News, that the FBI received human-source intelligence and corroborating evidence suggesting China orchestrated fake mail-in ballots in 2020 to boost Joe Biden.

The FBI reportedly neither investigated the tip nor preserved the material, instead recalling it and ordering its destruction. However, with the five-year statute of limitations on that allegation set to expire weeks after the evidence emerged in August 2020, any criminal referral faces an extremely narrow window for action, the outlet reported.

Patel’s FBI has launched a broad “grand conspiracy” investigation designed to circumvent looming statutes of limitations by treating separate incidents as part of a continuous scheme or racketeering enterprise. This approach would give a special prosecutor the opportunity to link recent alleged offenses with older ones under a single conspiracy theory.

The probe also paves the way to convene a grand jury in a jurisdiction outside Washington, D.C.—where jury pools have historically been reluctant to convict those who targeted Trump. D.C. has never backed a Republican presidential candidate: the only GOP nominee to ever clear 20% of the vote there was Richard Nixon in 1972 (with 21.56%), and in the most recent election, 92.1% of ballots opposed Trump.

Florida is one potential venue, the outlet reported. It was there that Special Counsel Jack Smith executed the 2022 Mar-a-Lago search and charged Trump with mishandling classified documents—a case later dismissed by a federal judge.

“Florida is an intriguing option because overt acts of the alleged conspiracy occurred there and are still inside the statute of limitations,” a former federal prosecutor who was consulted recently by Trump administration officials told Just the News.
