Laura Ingraham Reports: Declassification Directive Possible Next Week…

Posted on 05/16/2019 2:50:03 AM PDT by a little elbow grease

On her television show Laura Ingraham reported her ‘sources’ inform her President Trump will execute the declassification directive next week. [Video Tweet Link] If accurate, the timing –in advance of the OIG draft report– makes sense.

The declassification of documents central to previous congressional inquiry, that also encompasses the Inspector General review of the Carter Page FISA application, is the subject of great interest and speculation. However, it would make sense for President Trump to authorize the declassification of documents in advance of the IG report release.

"Yet another “complicated business, folks.” It will be interesting to see how successful Dims are at blocking, stalling and putting massive effort into preventing the release.

Hopefully at the end of whatever day, they’ll fail once again. This will be blockbuster. Can’t wait."

“If the DOJ and President Trump want the information more broadly available to the public and media, it would make sense to declassify the documents – pending the review and approval of the participating intelligence agencies (DOJ, DOJ-NSD, CIA, NSA, State Dept., FBI, ODNI, DoD, etc.)”

I knew there had to be a catch. What are the odds all, or even any, of them will be willing to put a rope around their own necks?"

It’s always “possible,” and always in the near future, but it almost never happens.

Their concern, bottom line, is irrelevant. The President can declassify anything he chooses.
Whether it’s prudent to do so remains to be seen.

For me, though...my preference is to see them released.

Not until she speaks the magic words "bought and paid for" at least once in every show segment.

Our President is signaling enough is enough. As Kenny Rodgers song says Know when to Hold them Know when to SHOW them. and I think the time to SHOW them is coming soon. Alos, the Rats believe he is bluffing and they will be wrong again. FYI Notice how quiet Schumer has been.

The redacted version of the Collier report has been out for some time.

Thanks for the ping.

I actually saw Laura say this on her Fox show this evening.

I’m skeptical.

Trump has been threatening to declassify stuff for the last year, but he never does it.

I will vote to reelect Trump in 2020, but I have basically stopped listening to him.

Documents have already likely been declassified months ago. This only signals that they will be released.

Now we know why Mueller was reluctant to appear before Nadler. The coming IG report and Trump’s release of the unredacted documents will show why there should never have been a Mueller investigation in the first place.

Trump has not “ threatened” to release them. He has promised to release them. He couldn’t do it before the Mueller report came out. Now it is just a matter of timing as to whether it should be before or after the IG report. I assume the WH already knows what is in the IG report.

The first Dem primary Presidential debate is scheduled for June 26-27.

Re: “It’s doubtful the intelligence apparatus would ever permit the public to see the 99-page FISA opinion written by FISC Presiding Judge Rosemary Collyer.”

Trump is the Chief Executive Officer of every Intelligence agency in the federal government.

He has the Constitutional and statutory authority to declassify and publicly release any document in the Executive Branch.

Unfortunately, he has not released any substantive documents during his 27 months in office.

Every document that has helped prove Trump's innocence has been obtained by Conservative organizations that filed Freedom Of Information Act requests.

She is now in Hannity’s league for interruptions and rudeness.

It might mean that the IG Report is finished and will be released simultaneously..Kind of like a Saturday night massacre.
