The Spin

The grand jury investigation represents long-overdue accountability for a massive political hoax. Obama officials manufactured a false Russia narrative to undermine Trump's presidency, selling the American people a lie about foreign interference. The declassified documents prove deep state actors buried evidence showing no Russian impact on election infrastructure while promoting a contrived story of collusion.

This investigation threatens to weaponize the Justice Department for political revenge against legitimate national security work. Multiple investigations, including bipartisan Senate findings, confirmed Russian interference efforts to help Trump in 2016. The declassified materials don't undercut core intelligence conclusions about Moscow's influence campaign.

Metaculus Prediction

There is a 41% chance the Department of Justice will announce an investigation or prosecution of a Democrat who served as president, vice president, congressional leader, whip, or impeachment manager before 2026, according to the Metaculus prediction community.
