House Judiciary Chairman Jordan Demands FBI Turn Over All Round River Counterintelligence Files After Declassified Records Show Trump Allies Classified as Russian Disinformation Conduits

House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan sent a letter to FBI Director Kash Patel on September 2 demanding all documents related to the FBI's "Round River" counterintelligence operation from the 2020 election 1. The letter states Round River, run by the FBI's Foreign Influence Task Force, extended to the FBI's Pittsburgh Field Office to allegedly disrupt a U.S. Attorney's Office investigation into the Biden family's Ukraine business dealings 12. Jordan's request follows declassified records released August 12 by the White House Government Transparency Task Force showing the FITF categorized over 70 individuals and organizations, listing Democrats including Joe and Hunter Biden, Hillary Clinton, John Kerry, Barack Obama and George Soros as "targets" of Russian disinformation while designating Republicans and conservative outlets, including Bill Barr, Mike Pompeo, Sens. Chuck Grassley, Ron Johnson and Lindsey Graham, Reps. Devin Nunes and Jordan himself, Rudy Giuliani, Michael Caputo, Fox News and One America News, as "conduits" 12. Jordan requested records on all 53 confidential human sources involved in Round River, the 14 who Patel has said provided derogatory information on Biden and the remaining 39, with a production deadline of 5 p.m. on September 16, and Patel has told the task force the FBI identified "tens of thousands of responsive pages" while examining whether the FITF skewed congressional briefings toward the Biden-Ukraine matter 12.
