Newly declassified FBI and White House documents reveal that the bureau secretly opened the "Oxferd Comma" investigation in 2017 to examine whether President Donald Trump was "wittingly or unwittingly" acting as a Russian asset after firing FBI Director James Comey. The probe was later absorbed into the Crossfire Hurricane and Mueller investigations. The investigation ultimately ended without charges against Trump, and Special Counsel Robert Mueller did not establish that Trump or his campaign conspired with Russia during the 2016 election. Trump has repeatedly dismissed the investigations as a "witch hunt," while newly released memos have reignited debate over the FBI's actions. #DonaldTrump #JamesComey #FBI #RussiaProbe #CrossfireHurricane #Mueller #DeclassifiedFiles #WhiteHouse #BreakingNews #USPolitics #TrumpRussia #DOJ #FBINews #PoliticalNews #News ► Subscribe to The Economic Times for the latest video updates.
