Full Title: DONALD TRUMP GIVES WILLIAM BARR POWER TO DECLASSIFY INTELLIGENCE INFORMATION IN 'A CORRUPT ACT OF POLITICAL RETRIBUTION,' EXPERTS SAY
Donald Trump has given Attorney General William Barr permission to declassify intelligence information about the origins of the Russia investigation, a move legal experts say is a gross abuse of power.
In a corrupt act of political retribution, our president has ordered his utterly compliant attorney general to root out Deep State demons that exist only in the unhinged mind of our nation's leader, Gene Rossi, a former federal prosecutor, told Newsweek.
The White House released a statement on Thursday announcing the declassification, claiming that it will help ensure that all Americans learn the truth about the events that occurred during the 2016 election.
Trumps order also demanded that intelligence agencies fully cooperate with the Justice Departments latest probe into the origin of special counsel Robert Muellers investigation of Russian election meddling and surveillance activities during the presidential election.
Bradley Moss, a national security law expert, told Newsweek that this represents an unprecedented set of actions by the president.
It is virtually unheard of for the attorney general to have such expansive declassification authority, Moss said. That it is being provided to Barr here, in a politically-driven inquiry into the presidents adversaries, raises serious concerns that the power will be abused to allow for selective and cherry-picked declassifications.
Trumps latest order for declassification and cooperation from the intelligence community is a direct contrast to his approach to the congressional oversight into his administration and family business. He previously told his team not to cooperate with subpoenas or requests issued by House Democrats.

Can the people who allowed this man to go free be tried as accessories to murder?
“Experts Say”
BWAHAHAHAH!!! “Experts”, yeah that’s funny. LOL!!
What a bunch of morons. And to think the Amazing Spineless Republicans lose to guys like thse, like clockwork.
It is virtually unheard of for the attorney general to have such expansive declassification authority,
Does anybody still read Newsweak?
It could only be political retribution if the people behind the illegal special prosecutor ‘investigation’ have something to hide.
at the same time they are accusing him of ‘covering up’...
They’ve tipped their hand on their narrative, and its sooo predictable. Whatever Barr finds, and whatever indictments get handed down (if any), are going to be painted as “political retribution”.
Wrong thread?................
Like cockroaches under a flood light.
They wanted transparency.
They got it..............
If that's the case, then they have nothing to worry about.
So its ok for the Gov to tap phones, access private tax returns but when it comes to how that information was gathered...that is wrong?
The Confrontation Clause of the Sixth Amendment to the United States Constitution provides that “in all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to be confronted with the witnesses against him.”
Over target.
Seriously, what planet do these clowns live on?
They live in an alternative reality and there is NO getting along with them. Constantly lying, constantly delusional, constantly projecting.
ALIENS.
WHY would it be retribution if these BASTARDS did nothing wrong!!! SO basically they all know what the hell these SOBs did to Trump BUT Trump putting out the truth is retribution??? These MSM asshats just make me sick!!!!
Who are these “experts”?
First of all the declass was done by Trump NOT Barr!!!!
As long as all the coup plotters including hillary are locked up for at least 19 years then I dont care what they call it.
