Devin Nunes Warns Democrats And Media They Won’t Like Declassified Info On Russia And Spy Warrants
Gateway Pundit ^ | 9/15/2018 | Aleister

Devin Nunes knows a lot more than the average person in Congress when it comes to the Russia investigation. He is an ally of Trump and he has been pushing for Trump to declassify documents related to the FISA warrants that led to investigations of the dossier and Russia.

Nunes is now warning Democrats and the media that they won’t like what they see.

From the Daily Caller:

House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes said this week that Democrats and the media are likely to be “frightened” by the information contained in Trump-Russia documents that Republicans are asking President Trump to declassify.

Speaking at an event hosted by the Center for Security Policy on Thursday, Nunes said that Trump is close to declassifying portions of a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) warrant granted against former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page.

On July 21, the Justice Department released heavily redacted versions of four FISA warrants granted against Page from Oct. 2016 through June 2017…

Nunes, a close ally of Trump’s, noted that Democrats and media pundits claimed after the initial release of the FISAs that “the really bad stuff about the Trump campaign was buried in the redactions.”

“And I said, you know what, you might be right. We should declassify the whole thing,” Nunes said Thursday, according to The Washington Free Beacon.

Nunes asserted that Trump’s critics have backed away from that argument out of fear that the rest of the FISA application will be damaging to the FBI and the narrative that the Trump campaign colluded with the Russian government.

“And you know why? Because I think they’re going to be frightened by what you see,” Nunes said of Democrats and the press.

The fact that Nunes is saying this so confidently leads one to believe the declassified documents will blow a major hole in the left’s narrative about Russia.

This report from the Washington Free Beacon is very telling:

Democrats and their media allies seeking to advance a liberal political agenda corrupted the FBI and Justice Department in improperly spying on Donald Trump’s presidential campaign, the chairman of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence said this week.

Rep. Devin Nunes (R., Calif.), the intelligence panel head who has spearheaded an investigation into corruption at the FBI, also warned in a speech that China has emerged as the most serious strategic threat facing the United States…

“The reason that the press is completely, finally, essentially come out of their shell and became who they always were is because they don’t know what to do,” he said.

“So they’ve put everything they have out on the field and this is really Nancy Pelosi’s last stand,” Nunes noted.

“The reason that they have this fight, the reason that they have Antifa, the reason that they’re protesting, the reason that they’re causing all of these riots, the reason that they’re doing things that you normally wouldn’t see in this country, the reason that they’re actually willing to corrupt the FBI and the DOJ—they’re doing it because we’re winning folks,” he said.

“We’re winning and I think we have a good chance to win this fall if we keep the faith, stay on message, and help out our colleagues.”

Some years ago when there was a Terrible Hurricane “bearing down” on the local scene, actually it was dithering offshore and couldn’t decide where to go to land, the local weather folks at the TV station had their camera on a reporter and reporterette out on the beach with their raincoats blowing furiously and water splashing on them. The camera jiggled and it became obvious they had a big fan set up and a sprayer hose operating. The hurricane never did produce much wind and only a little rain for a hurricane and dissipated right there offshore.

Trump will declassify at the appropriate time.

President Trump understands the "October Surprise" isn't just a tool for the Democrats to use.

The cabal’s claws have been surgically extracted and the cabalistas have hastily replaced them with paper paste-ons that look fierce.

Idiot left, if they had left well enough alone from the election forward, this all would have swept away... Still might, but some have lost jobs and may go to prison.

Release the memo oh they did nothing happened. Hey republicans why don’t you grow a pair and forget what the propagandists press say. This insinuation crap got old over a year ago. Trump and the republicans are looking like whiney bitches. Declassify now or stop trying to make me care. Is this our government? We deserved to see it all. This has gone on too looking the national security interests don’t override the citizens right to know about an attempted coupe by a cabal of secret police, propagandist press, and corrupt govt officials. The bitching has gotten old. Took forever to get to this point use the power to expose or continue to give credence to Mueller as he destroy lives. Witty tweets arent cutting it for me anymore

It will be declassified and three weeks to a month before mid terms.

Trump is going to bury the democrats and their FBI puppets with this release once and for all.

He has stood back and taken the lefts best shot and is not even scratched by any of it.

Now it is his turn and he will go for the liberal political jugular vein.

One counter punch, one political shot, one swipe to displace all of the lefts lies, and the democrats are history as a political power. They will not take the senate or the house and will be totally unable to touch President Trump.

I have been predicting that Trump would take his turn at the plate in this game when he decided it was to his best advantage.

I think Trump just found the proper time and the proper incriminating information against the collusion of the democrat party with the FBI, the DNC, and the Russians.

This is going to be great to watch.

Thankfully, Trump is NOT the GOP. My money is on him.
