President Donald Trump has dropped a bombshell by signaling he’s no longer opposed to locking up Hillary Clinton over her alleged involvement in the 2016 Russiagate saga, as the Daily Wire reports.
During a recent podcast interview, Trump reversed his earlier reluctance to pursue legal action against Clinton, citing new declassified information and a desire for fairness after facing similar scrutiny himself, while high-profile figures have been referred to the Department of Justice for potential prosecution.
Let’s rewind to 2016, when Trump first took office and chose restraint over retribution. Despite having the chance to go after Clinton, he opted to focus on uniting a divided nation. “I said, no, no … we just won,” Trump recalled, emphasizing his initial push for healing.
Trump’s shift takes center stage
Back then, Trump believed prosecuting Clinton — a former secretary of State and spouse of a president — wasn’t the right move. “I felt it was inappropriate,” he noted during his latest interview on the Pod Force One podcast with New York Post reporter Miranda Divine.
Fast forward to today, and the tone has changed dramatically. Trump now feels that fairness demands a second look, especially after enduring what he calls a hoax of Russian collusion allegations. “I just want to be fair,” he insisted, pointing out the irony of his own legal battles.
Enter Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, who earlier this month released declassified documents shedding new light on the Russiagate controversy. These revelations have led to referrals for criminal investigation, targeting not just Clinton but other prominent figures like former CIA Director John Brennan and former FBI Director James Comey.
Gabbard pushes for full accountability
Gabbard isn’t mincing words about the stakes. “No matter how powerful, every person involved in this conspiracy must be investigated and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law,” she declared, framing the ordeal as an attempt to undermine the will of American voters.
She went further, alleging a calculated effort to sabotage Trump’s presidency. “Their goal was to subvert the will of the American people,” Gabbard charged, painting a picture of a years-long scheme to derail a duly elected leader. Turns out, actions might just have consequences.
CIA Director John Ratcliffe echoed the gravity of the situation, confirming that referrals to the Justice Department include Clinton, Brennan, Comey, and even former President Barack Obama — though Obama is likely shielded by presidential immunity. It’s a laundry list of heavy hitters facing serious scrutiny.
DOJ steps into action
Attorney General Pam Bondi, tasked with navigating this political minefield, has assembled a strike force to dig into the declassified materials. “We will investigate these troubling disclosures fully,” Bondi promised, signaling a no-nonsense approach to uncovering the truth.
Bondi also praised her collaboration with Gabbard, emphasizing a shared commitment to accountability. “The Department of Justice is proud to work with my friend Director Gabbard,” she stated, underlining a unified front in this high-stakes probe. It’s a rare moment of bipartisan resolve — or at least, it should be.
Trump, for his part, made it clear he’s stepping back from the final call on prosecution. “Ultimately, it’s up to Pam,” he said, deferring to Bondi’s judgment on whether to move forward with charges against Clinton. A savvy move, or just passing the hot potato?
Russiagate hoax still haunts
Trump has long maintained that the Russian collusion narrative was nothing short of a fabricated crisis, calling it “treason” that put the nation at risk. His frustration is palpable — after all, years of investigations into his campaign yielded no concrete evidence of wrongdoing on his part.
Now, with the tables potentially turning, the question looms: will this push for accountability heal old wounds or reopen them? The conservative call for justice is loud, but it must be tempered with the same fairness Trump claims to seek, lest it spiral into a cycle of political vengeance.
Whatever Bondi’s strike force uncovers, one thing is certain — this Russiagate chapter is far from closed. As the declassified documents continue to stir the pot, Americans deserve answers, not agendas, from both sides of the aisle. Let’s hope the pursuit of truth doesn’t get lost in the partisan shuffle.
