There's enough room in this statement to drive a truck through. We'll see how it goes, but to be skeptical is to be realistic.

You should read the EO's cited in the President's order to Barr.

I'm Oracling right now, or I'd track it down for you.

The Donald cited that for a reason. And wrote the EO for a reason too.

The Devil is in the details (fine print)

The letter is posted here on FR in several places. Good luck.

And that is as it should be.

Folks, when our beloved President says he'll declassify everything, he doesn't mean everything.

He has directed intel agencies to do in accordance with standards.....which means sources and methods will be redacted.

Just be careful with expectations.— EconChick/IntelChick (@MikayesFiona) May 24, 2019

Can’t wait to read the FISA warrants and the stuff Gowdy said was game changing today! Oh wait, not one single piece of paper has been released yet.

The President has talked about this for months. There should have been a large stack of information ready to be released on day one, but there is not. Information dibbled out over long periods of months has only convince a small minority of people that there was and issue. Hell, a slight majority of people believe Trump is still a Russian spy. Hardly anyone believes Obama directed a spying operation or the true story of the leaks.

Go figure it out for yourself, moron. There's LOTS of information out on Free Republic why Trump wasn't able to do things on Day 1, if you'd only lift a lazy finger to find out.

Bless your heart!

Truth is truth.

Don't leave your sound equipment lying around on the floor, I ain't your maid.

This story is ALL OVER the news, exactly the same.

What makes some bloggers plagiarized version MORE true?

Just because you dislike the media's crap sandwiches doesn't
mean that some blogger's day-old crap hash is any better.

It's just packaged differently.

Why has it taken 2+ years to do this? It should have been ordered day 1.

Mueller, nothing could be done until the Mueller investigation was over. Thank goodness Sessions is gone.

But this is what we’ve been waiting for.
I won’t let Debbie Downers ruin this for me. I’m enjoying the show.

Lol. While on the trains to (and stay at) the Death Camps, we’ll all have a good chuckle over our overly optimistic BOOM!!!’s

It didn’t happen because Sessions recused and Rotten Rod wrote a biased “investigate only Trump” Mueller Coup scope memo to make sure it didn’t.

Was Hannity’s radio taped yesterday? The bit I heard he was talking about Whiskey. I think sometimes he bugs out early around holidays and plays a taped show.

We just have to be realistic not to be disappointed. Democrats and Never Trumpers like Romney types don’t care Obama spied on Trump. No Democrat is going to jail. The GOPe will never fight that battle.

This declassification is all about boosting Trump voter morale and GOTV for 2020. If it helps with that and gets POTUS reelected, great.

Declassification is inside baseball for us nerds. The majority of the American people haven't a clue what it means. Walls and stopping illegal immigration is what will get DJT re-elected.

Okay, I took the time and made the effort to track down this Trump letter.

I erred. Trump didn't write the declas EO. That was the work of one Barak Hussein Obama. Which makes it even juicier that The Donald is using it to smack the derps.

I highlighted in red the EO citations. If you want to know the standards that Barr will be implementing for DECLAS, go check it out. I'm too busy to hunt those down too. And I'm really not that great a finder anyway.

Barr is motivated to DECLAS and is fixing to do it. For FISA, and later, even more.

Watch and see.

Once again, here on FR, some dork calls someone else “stupid” and doesn’t know how to spell the word “you’re”. So weird how common that is.

I was referring to bloggers in general.

I can't say about this particular one, as I don't read his material.

Do you deny that this exact same story is available all over the news?
Or do you think that this blogger broke the news all by himself?

Watch and see.

That seems to be what some do best. The left, OTOH, is registering new voters. That is the better Plan, and it's what DJT needs from us.

Truth can be found in the darndest places. One story can be similar to another, but there may be details in the one that the other doesn't have. Or a different editorial slant.

I like to read all versions of things and decide for myself. The more options the better.

We let the derps monopolize the signal for far too long, and look where that got us. Now that the derps have lost their information monopoly, we are better informed, and therefore, better armed.

Please don't take my bloggers away from me. The more voices the better, goodman.

Now I simply MUST get cracking on my work.

All play and no work makes Bag a dull boy.
