Journalist John Solomon said he expects President Donald Trump to soon announce a large-scale declassification initiative that could significantly increase public access to government records and impact ongoing investigations.
Solomon described the anticipated effort as a coordinated operation designed to release documents at an accelerated pace, allowing both the public and prosecutors to review information that has previously remained classified.
“I think we’re going to call I’m going to give a code name,” Solomon said. “I know the FBI likes code names. I’m going to make one up today.”
He said he believes the effort will be announced in the near future.
“I think the President of the United States, in the next couple of weeks, will announce an operation I would call the code name hypersonic clarity,” Solomon said.
According to Solomon, the scope of the document release would be extensive and unlike previous disclosures.
“We’re going to get a level of transparency in a release and declassification of documents unparalleled in American history,” he said.
He said the speed of the release would be a key factor in how the information is used.
“There will be a speed of lightning, a speed of sound, to release of documents,” Solomon said.
Solomon indicated that the declassification effort could have direct implications for a prosecutorial team working in Miami, allowing them to proceed without relying on classified proceedings.
“And those documents will help this prosecutorial team in Miami that’s doing this hard work to not have to do secret proceedings and secret classified proceedings,” he said.
He explained that removing classification barriers could streamline the legal process.
“Because the documents will be unclassified,” Solomon said. “The public will have transparency.”
Solomon said that increased access to documents could help investigators distinguish between individuals involved in alleged wrongdoing.
“That will make it easier, I think, for the prosecutors to find the bad guys and sort the good guys from the bad guys,” he said.
He added that eliminating classified procedures could reduce delays in the legal process.
“Without having to have months and years of secret proceedings, what are called Secrecy Act hearings, which slow everything down,” Solomon said.
He said the expected changes could allow investigations to move forward more quickly.
“They’re going to ungum the trail, and things are going to move quickly,” he said.
Solomon also addressed the broader impact of the anticipated disclosures, including the possibility of accountability related to past events.
“I do think there will be some accountability,” he said. “There’ll never be enough for what we went through the last 12 years.”
He said the information could shed light on issues related to elections and intelligence operations.
“We were deprived of a fair election because of this meddling in these Psyop operations,” Solomon said.
He added that additional reporting on election-related vulnerabilities could be forthcoming.
“We’ve been kept from information about vulnerabilities in our election system,” he said. “Which I’m going to have some good stories on that next week.”
Solomon said the anticipated effort could also influence how the Justice Department approaches investigations moving forward.
“I don’t think this Justice Department is going to fall for that,” he said. “I think there will be a speed of disclosure and a speed of prosecution that we didn’t see in past years.”
He also discussed what he described as a potential strategy for building broader cases.
“The grand conspiracy case will be the ultimate thing,” Solomon said.
He compared the approach to tactics used in organized crime prosecutions.
“Remember, they had to flip Sammy the Bull to get the Gambino family,” he said.
Solomon said investigators may seek cooperation from high-ranking individuals.
“They’re going to have to take a capo in this intelligence law enforcement machinery and flip them,” he said.
He suggested that securing such cooperation could strengthen cases.
“And if you get one big name person and you flip them, maybe a deputy FBI director, a senior FBI official, a senior intelligence Council official,” Solomon said.
He concluded by describing the potential impact of such a development.
“I think they make that conspiracy case in a powerful way, and this begins to change very quickly,” Solomon said. “So keep an eye those are the things I’m watching for as a reporter in the next few weeks.”
