WASHINGTON, D.C. – On Tuesday, Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations Chairman Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) and Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) sent a letter urging President Donald Trump to declassify all government records related to the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s (FBI) weaponized Crossfire Hurricane investigation.
In March 2025, President Trump signed an executive order approving the declassification of Crossfire Hurricane materials. Yet, key records remain classified, including government emails, hundreds of transcripts from Department of Justice (DOJ) Office of Inspector General interviews, and a 400-page DOJ Inspection Division investigation report.
“We appreciate your strong efforts to bring transparency and accountability to Crossfire Hurricane and its related investigations. For approximately a decade, we’ve investigated Crossfire Hurricane and have sought possession of a wide array of government records to expose the facts and evidence once hidden from the American public. The more we’ve investigated the matter, the more information has come to light exposing the political rot that infected that operation from the get-go,” the senators wrote.
“Your administration possesses a treasure trove of records that prove out weaponization against Republicans, including you and your family, which we’ve investigated for many years. These records need to see the light of day, consistent with your declassification Executive Order and the overriding public interest,” the senators concluded.
