FBI Director Kash Patel found a trove of sensitive documents related to the origins of the Trump–Russia probe buried in multiple “burn bags” in a secret room inside the bureau, reports Fox News Digital.
The FBI reportedly uses the “burn bag” system to destroy documents designated as classified or higher.
According to Fox’s sources, one of the documents FBI officials found in a burn bag was the classified annex to former special counsel John Durham’s final report, which includes the underlying intelligence he reviewed.
Once the annex is declassified, it is scheduled to be turned over to Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, who reportedly will release the document to the public.
“Ultimately, the release of the classified annex will lend more credibility to the assertion that there was a coordinated plan inside the U.S. government to help the Clinton campaign stir up controversy connecting Trump to Russia,” the source told Fox News Digital.
“Mere days after this intelligence was collected, the FBI launched Crossfire Hurricane,” the source said. “It’s really hard to see how Brennan, Clapper and Comey are going to be able to explain this away.”
In a June interview with podcast host Joe Rogan, Patel said that he found a room full of documents and computer hard drives “that no one had ever seen or heard of.”
“Just think about this,” Patel told Rogan. “Me, as director of the FBI, the former ‘Russiagate guy,’ when I first got to the bureau, found a room that Comey and others hid from the world in the Hoover Building, full of documents and computer hard drives that no one had ever seen or heard of. Locked the key and hid access and just said, ‘No one’s ever gonna find this place.’”
According to Fox News, the most recent discovery of documents was pursuant to an investigative request from Grassley.
The senator has requested Patel give him information related to Durham’s probe. Durham was appointed after then-special counsel Robert Mueller completed his yearslong investigation into the origins of the Trump-Russia probe – including intelligence community malfeasance during and in the aftermath of the 2016 election.
As the Gateway Pundit reported, part of Grassley’s request is for thumb drives that contain unreviewed evidence in the Hillary Clinton email scandal.

Amuse on X wonders who it is within the FBI that tipped Patel off to the existence of the burn bags and hidden room, calling him or her an “unknown hero.”
