The U.S. Department of Justice, under Attorney General Pam Bondi, has initiated a grand jury investigation focused on allegations that Obama officials conspired during the 2016 election to undermine then-candidate Donald Trump. This move comes as part of a broader inquiry into the origins of the Trump-Russia probe, with Bondi directing prosecutors to examine the actions of former officials, including those linked to intelligence and national security. Critics argue that this investigation diverts attention from pressing national issues, while supporters claim it is necessary to address potential misconduct. The probe reflects ongoing tensions surrounding the narrative established during the 2016 campaign and subsequent investigations into Russian interference.
