President Trump Tuesday night went scorched earth and authorized the total declassification of all documents related to the Russia hoax, Spygate and Hillary Clinton’s email scandal.
“No redactions!” Trump said.
“I have fully authorized the total Declassification of any & all documents pertaining to the single greatest political CRIME in American History, the Russia Hoax. Likewise, the Hillary Clinton Email Scandal. No redactions!” Trump tweeted.

Trump’s tweet comes after DNI John Ratcliffe declassified and released documents on Tuesday revealing former CIA Director John Brennan briefed Barack Obama on Hillary Clinton’s plot to ‘stir up’ a scandal to tie Trump to Russia in order to distract from her email scandal ahead of the 2016 election.
This declassification comes after Ratcliffe released a Russian intel assessment in which he asserted that Hillary Clinton hatched the Russia hoax in order to pin the DNC ‘hacking’ on President Trump.
“In late July 2016, US intelligence agencies obtained insight into Russian intelligence analysis alleging that US Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton had approved a campaign plan to stir up a scandal against US Presidential candidate Donald Trump by tying him to Putin and the Russians’ hacking of the DNC. The IC does not know the accuracy of this allegation of the extent to which the Russian intelligence analysis may reflect exaggerations or fabrication,” Ratcliffe wrote to Lindsey Graham.
The Obama-Biden White House was briefed on it by then-CIA Director John Brennan.
Brennan’s handwritten notes were exclusively obtained by Fox News:
“We’re getting additional insight into Russian activities from [REDACTED],” Brennan notes read. “CITE [summarizing] alleged approved by Hillary Clinton a proposal from one of her foreign policy advisers to vilify Donald Trump by stirring up a scandal claiming interference by the Russian security service,” Brennan’s notes read.
The memos, notes and documents released by Ratcliffe however are heavily redacted.
Possibly his internal polling is showing a Biden victory, so he has to act before 1/20/21.
One important note of caution: there is a big difference between “authorized” and “ordered”. On May 23rd, 2019, President Trump authorized AG Bill Barr to declassify all documents and despite much optimism nothing happened {Go DEEP}. However, President Trump references that lack of inaction in the next series of tweets:
Presumably “people” who “acted very slowly” would pertain to AG Bill Barr, FBI Director Chris Wray, CIA Director Gina Haspel, State Dept Secretary Mike Pompeo and former ODNI Dan Coats. President Trump asks those agencies now to “Act!!!”
Depends on if they were being used in an ongoing investigation.
The hand of God is on Trump there is absolutely NO WAY God will let’ these evil people have control of this country NO WAY!! God gave us a divine intervention in 2016 and he will do so again in larger numbers so mail in voting won’t matter!!
He did not “order” it. He authorized it.
Words have meanings.
Did he sign an order for this? Or just tweet it?
Maybe these notes will spark Comey’s memory?
It’s NOT an order.
You can read into it whatever you wish. That doesn’t change the words. The word is authorized. Authorized means they are “allowed” to, not “ordered” or “required” to.
Nice! Thanks for posting.
to all you morons here whinging about the word “authorize” in a fricking TWEET: A TWEET is NOT an executive order ... Trump will issue an EO to implement this, so why don’t ya’ll unwad your panties and wait until the EO that implements this is issued and see whether it’s an actual order or just an “authorization”? OK?
“We’re getting additional insight into Russian activites from [REDACTED],” Brennan’s handwritten notes state. “Cite alleged approval by Hillary Clinton–on 26 July–of a proposal from one of her foreign policy advisers to villify [sic] Donald Trump by stirring up a scandal claiming interference by the Russian security services.
“This actually might not be such good news. Usually, the DOJ won’t release any documents or try to prevent their release from other agencies if they are related to criminal prosecutions or even ongoing criminal investigations.”
it’s EXCELLENT news! Trump is tired of waiting for the Deep Staters to get off their asses or already knows they’re not going to prosecute anyway ... it’ll be HILARIOUS if he can trick the leftist fake stream enemedia into screaming about damaging the prosecutions of the Deep Staters who tried to overthrow him by releasing these documents!
A lot of good that will do with the foot-dragging AG we now have.
“Any agency head who refuses to comply with this ORDER should be immediately removed.”
totally ... insubordination? YOU’RE FIRED!
I initially had high hopes for Barr, but he has turned out to be just as swampy as the rest of the establishment criminals. Horribly disappointed.
“I’m firmly convinced the voter fraud/ballot harvesting in this election will be immense”
well, you’re wrong as usual ... so far, in close to a dozen recent cases at the state supreme court level AND SCOTUS, the GOP has won nearly every case where the Democrats have been trying to illegally overturn established state election law ... once Barret is appointed, it’s gonna be all she wrote on that pile of bullshit the Dems are trying to pull ...
Just as an aside, the nuke is set off above ground to minimize the fallout at a distance. In terms of destruction, a ground blast would incur similar local damage, but it would throw a lot more material into the air. That material would spread out over miles. For military targets, that is not optimal.
“I saw one article stating that Tom Fitton will be joining the administration. Since then I’ve seen absolutely nothing on this move, have you?”
yes. Judicial Watch issued a letter confirming the appointment ...
Perhaps there’s a proven Covid-19 attack on his wife — the last #ing straw.
