Another curiosity is the timing of this story. Several weeks ago, there were stories that said Patel had discovered the existence of a room where double, special secret documents were stashed, as well as that the FBI had a category of documents that were hidden from normal digital searches. The Room and the special docs could be viewed only by a select few FBI oligarchs.
Did the unburned “burn bag” material come from this Room? Was there some Kabuki Theatre wherein CIA Director Ratliffe “discovered”, declassified, and released the same stuff? Was that game just to get the things they found at FBI HQ declassified and before the public?
News reports said a classified annex to the Durham report was in one of the bags. The Durham report was released in 2022. If it came from the same room, staff were mixing new documents with old documents. Hopefully more about this will come out.
