JD Vance says 'a lot of people' will be indicted over Russiagate scandal

Vice President JD Vance has said that "a lot of people" will get indicted over the Russiagate scandal that started during the latter end of the Obama administration. This comes after Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard accused Obama administration officials of engaging in a "treasonous conspiracy" to undermine the incoming Trump administration and other revelations from the Durham Annex.

In an interview with Fox News' "Sunday Morning Futures," on Sunday, Vance said that the documents released by Gabbard, as well as other information surrounding Russiagate, pointed to "an aggressive violation of the law."

“I absolutely want to see indictments," Vance added. “Of course, you’ve got to have the law follow the facts here. You don’t just indict people to indict people. You indict people because they broke the law."

“If you look at what Tulsi and Kash Patel have revealed in the last couple of weeks, I don’t know how anybody can look at that and say there was an aggressive violation of the law," he continued, later adding, "I absolutely think they broke the law. And you’re going to see a lot of people get indicted for that."

In July, Gabbard began releasing a slew of newly declassified documents related to the Obama administration's investigation of Russian interference in the 2016 election between Trump and Hillary Clinton. In those documents, it was revealed that a House Intelligence Committee from 2020 found that there was little evidence that Russia was vying for Trump to win in 2016.

“What they basically did is they defrauded the American people in order to take Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign talking points and turn them into intelligence,” Vance said, and accused Obama administration officials of “lying about what the intel said.”

Additionally, a first-hand account of a whistleblower detailed how they were "threatened by a supervisor to go along with the Obama-directed Russia hoax 'intelligence' assessment, even though they knew it was not credible or accurate."

Last week, the DOJ moved to start an investigation for a grand jury probe of Obama administration officials. Grand juries are used to determine whether indictments should be issued.

“They actually laundered Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign talking points through the American intelligence services," Vance added, but did not specify the names of people involved.

Additionally, according to the now-disclosed Durham Annex, Hillary Clinton "approved a plan proposed by one of her foreign policy advisors, Julianne Smith, to ‘smear Donald Trump by magnifying the scandal tied to the intrusion by the Russian special services in the pre-election process to benefit the Republican candidate.'"
