Declassified: Trump-Russia launch document authored by Strzok and investigated by Durham

The document that greenlighted the FBI's counterintelligence investigation into the Trump campaign has been unveiled, giving the public a look at a key focus of U.S. Attorney John Durham's inquiry into the Trump-Russia investigators.

An “opening electronic communication," which was authored by fired FBI agent Peter Strzok, was released through a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit brought by conservative government watchdog group Judicial Watch.

Typed up in late July 2016 with the approval of William Priestap, the assistant director of the FBI Counterintelligence Division, the document outlines the reasoning for the bureau’s decision to launch the Crossfire Hurricane investigation. The investigation looked into ties between the Trump campaign and Russia after an Australian diplomat, Alexander Downer, informed the United States that Trump campaign foreign policy adviser George Papadopoulos told him he learned Russia had damaging information on Hillary Clinton, Trump's Democratic rival in the 2016 presidential election.

Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz determined in his December audit of the Russia investigation that Crossfire Hurricane was properly predicated, untainted by politics.
