JD Vance believes prosecutors are about to indict “a lot of people” over the Obama administration’s participation in the Russia hoax.

“What they basically did is they defrauded the American people in order to take Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign talking points and turn them into intelligence,” the vice president said in a Sunday interview.
