New FBI Files Expose Agents’ Efforts to Target Trump & Elon Musk with Hoax Criminal Probes– slaynews.com

Newly released FBI records show one agent repeatedly lobbying to join the bureau’s Trump-Russia investigation while another sought to open a criminal investigation into Elon Musk after he asked federal employees to identify five things they had accomplished at work.

Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-IA) released the internal communications as part of a broader disclosure involving the FBI’s Crossfire Hurricane investigation and other bureau matters.

Grassley said the documents provide further evidence of political bias inside the federal bureaucracy and accused the “Deep State” of working against President Donald Trump and his allies.

“The previous Democrat administrations under Obama and Biden conducted secret, insidious and downright evil operations that almost took down our government,” Grassley said during a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing with FBI Director Kash Patel.

“That’s arguably worse than Watergate.”
