OPERATION ROUND RIVER

The FBI ran a secret 2020 operation that labeled Biden family critics as Russian “conduits” while protecting the Bidens as “targets.”

Newly declassified documents show the Bureau had at least 14 confidential human sources reporting negative information on Joe Biden.

Analysts marked some of that reporting as Russian DISINFORMATION — without first determining if the allegations were even TRUE.

Conservatives investigating Burisma were branded conduits.
Democrats connected to the scandal were treated as victims.

This was the reverse of Crossfire Hurricane.

Kash Patel has dismantled the team and opened an investigation.
More documents are coming.

When intelligence agencies decide which evidence is allowed to surface during an election, the system is no longer NEUTRAL.

What happens to a country that lets its own spy agencies pick the winners?

Just The News reports:

The FBI and U.S. spy agencies received derogatory evidence about Joe Biden from 14 different informants but embarked on a secret operation to tamp down a Ukrainian corruption scandal engulfing his family during the 2020 election by formally designating Attorney General Bill Barr, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, key members of Congress and journalists as Russian disinformation “conduits,” according to explosive intelligence community documents declassified by the White House.

A spreadsheet that was recovered from U.S. intelligence agency files and made public Wednesday by the White House Government Transparency Task Force shows that spy agencies and the FBI created a list of more than six dozen prominent organizations, Americans or foreigners who became figures in the Biden family Ukraine scandal and the 2019 impeachment proceedings against President Donald Trump.

The spreadsheet neatly divided figures along political lines, with Democrats like the Bidens, Hillary Clinton, John Kerry, Barack Obama and George Soros listed as victimized “targets” of Russian disinformation and conservatives like Fox News, One America News, filmmaker Michael Caputo and Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani as “conduits” for disinformation.

The FBI also labeled two of President Donald Trump’s first-term Cabinet secretaries, Pompeo and Barr, as well as Republican Sens. Chuck Grassley, Ron Johnson and Lindsey Graham and House GOP committee chairmen Devin Nunes and Jim Jordan as “conduits” even while they all investigated whether the allegations of corruption against the Biden family were true.

The designations were part of a secret counterintelligence operation codenamed “Round River” that was launched during the 2020 election by a task force of FBI analysts claiming to be fighting “malign foreign influence” in the 2020 election, according to an administration official.

The Foreign Influence Task Force (FITF), based in FBI headquarters, concurred with each of the assessments in the spreadsheet with a “no objection” designation, the documents state.

Many of the Americans were identified as potential candidates for defensive briefings, though the spreadsheets and documents found so far do not identify how many Americans ultimately were given such briefings.

In some ways, the Round River operation is a mirror opposite of the Russia collusion probe known as Crossfire Hurricane in which the FBI pursued unsubstantiated allegations spread by Democrats that Trump and his allies conspired with Vladimir Putin to hijack the 2016 election. In Round River, FBI analysts sought to dismiss significant evidence in the bureau’s possession, including Hunter Biden’s own laptop, pointing to possible corruption by the Bidens.  (Read much more: Just the News, 8/12/2026)  (Archive)

John Solomon was asked today by @ericbolling if he believes we will ever see perp walks.

“I think so. There is a very active grand jury in Fort Pierce, Florida. You don’t call a grand jury and start hauling witnesses before it unless you have a crime, or two, or three, or four that you’re investigating.

The activity down in Fort Pierce has been very fast paced. It’s really accelerating under Joe diGenova… It looks to me like an operation that probably would be in a position to make some indictment decisions before Labor Day, or just after Labor Day…

I think you may see multiple people charged over the next six months to a year.”

It’s definitely coming, but the question is when?

President Trump doesn’t continuously remind the American people about what they did for no reason.

Fort Pierce is much bigger than Brennan and Comey… this is where ten years of government weaponization may finally be assembled into one continous conspiracy…

We knew Durham was laying the foundation for what would come… he gathered the records… questioned the players… exposed the unverified intelligence, FISA abuse and collapsed safeguards… then preserved the evidence while narrow prosecutions left the larger machine untouched…

Now Round River exposes the other half… the FBI chased weak information against Trump through Crossfire Hurricane… while at least 14 confidential human sources were reporting derogatory information about Joe Biden…

Round River analysts moved through those files… marked intelligence as Russian disinformation… buried records behind restricted access… and branded the people investigating Biden family corruption as Russian conduits…

Bill Barr… Mike Pompeo… Chuck Grassley… Ron Johnson… Lindsey Graham… Devin Nunes… Jim Jordan… journalists and government officials… anyone carrying the evidence toward public view was pulled inside the counterintelligence frame…

The FBI reportdly identified 53 sources potentially exposed to foreign intelligence… 14 had reported information against Biden… Hunter’s laptop had already been authenticated… and the U.S. attorney assigned to review the Biden-Ukraine allegations reportedly never knew Round River was operating through the same Pittsburgh office…

That is the machine… investigate anything that could damage Trump… discredit anything that could damage Biden… bury the files… smear the witnesses… target the investigators… then hide the operation behind intelligence classifications…

Crossfire manufactured the Trump narrative… Round River buried the Biden evidence… media flooded the country with both outcomes… censorship sealed the information environment… Mueller, impeachment, Arctic Frost, Mar-a-Lago and Jack Smith carried the pressure forward…

Same machine… same protected outcome… now the flow is reversing… this reaches far beyond Trump…

If federal power was used to investigate one candidate… protect the other… control what Americans were allowed to know… and disable the president they elected… then the constitutional voice of the American people was the real target…

Durham documented how it began… Round River shows how they protected the outcome… Fort Pierce will finally connect the whole machine…
