On July 5, 2016, as James Comey announced that he had cleared Hillary Clinton, his FBI was furtively meeting with the author of the fictitious anti-Trump "dossier" funded by Clinton and the Democrats. The document, together with many other unfounded accusations, would be exploited in a malicious attempt to frame Trump for unidentified crimes he did not commit. This was the beginning of the Russia hoax.This book is a defense of the rule of law, which came under sustained attack by high government officials who abused their positions of power to subvert our system of justice and undermine the democratic process. As facts emerged, legal analyst Gregg Jarrett became incensed that top figures at the FBI and Department of Justice deliberately abused their offices. They absolved Hillary Clinton of flagrantly violating felony statutes. They weaponized other laws and regulations to investigate Trump without legal justification, in an effort to destroy him. They compromised essential principles and damaged the nation's trust. As The Russia Hoax details, there was never any plausible evidence that Trump or his campaign collaborated with Russia to win the presidency. The FBI had no legal basis to initiate its investigation. Facts were invented or exaggerated. Laws were perverted or ignored. The law enforcers became lawbreakers; James Comey's scheme to trigger the appointment of his friend as special counsel was a devious maneuver by an unscrupulous man. His insinuation that the president obstructed justice was another canard designed to inflame the liberal media. Sure enough, they became witting accessories. It may take months, if not years, before a true accounting is divulged. This is how cover-ups work-the truth is slow to emerge. However, we know enough about the misdeeds and conflicts of interest by people like Robert Mueller, Peter Strzok, Lisa Page, Andrew McCabe, and others to know that real crimes by career officials have piled up. Until history-or a special prosecutor-brings these officials down, the story told here presents more than sufficient facts for the reader to reach the inexorable conclusion that the investigation of President Trump is the witch hunt he's called it.With insightful analysis and a fact-filled narrative, The Russia Hoax builds a step-by-step case that even the most partisan Democrat will find nearly impossible to dispute.
