President Trump is expected to swiftly declassify a controversial memo on purported surveillance abuses, sources tell Fox News, even as Democrats raise objections that edits were made to the document since it was approved for release by a key committee.
Those objections fueled a new round of partisan recriminations on Thursday, with House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi firing off a letter to Speaker Paul Ryan demanding the chairman of that committee, Republican Devin Nunes, be removed.
“Chairman Nunes’ deliberately dishonest actions make him unfit to serve as Chairman, and he must be immediately removed from this position,” she wrote.
But the objections don’t appear to be halting the publication plans.
The release is likely to come Friday morning, Fox News is told.
Trump already had made clear he supports the release of the document, but the top Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee late Wednesday charged that Nunes made "material changes" to the memo.
Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., who opposes the memo’s release in any form, wrote that the committee’s minority determined the letter was not “the same document” its members have been reviewing since mid-January. Nunes' office countered that the changes were minor and blasted the complaint as a “bizarre distraction from the abuses detailed in the memo.”

It must be really, really, really bad.
L
Release the Obama Memo.
Promote Bat Crap Crazy Pelosi to nation spokeswoman for the Democrat Party.
Projection much, Nancycakes?
Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgghhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just DO IT!
Pres. Chuck and VP. Nancy. 2020!
They better release the damn thing before someone runs to some lefty Judge in a Federal District Court and gets an injunction!
Why wait until tomorrow?
#ReleaseTheMemo!
Pelosi is the republicans secret weapon for the 2018 elections. Kelly Ann Conway said she was going to send her Vitamins to ensure her health is okay this year. Pelosi will be a prominent figure in Republican campaign ads this year. Let’s all wish her good health so she sticks around (At least through November 2018).
Nunes should call for Pelosi to be censured for being that stupid
RYAN:
I'm going to ignore this request, Nancy, because you will not remember it next week...................
Regards,
Release the unredacted memo. Democrats must face their acts of treason.
Trump is getting people talking about it.
We can clearly see the battle plan of the left. Discredit memo as fake or misleading. The Democrats think that with the Fake News Media banging that drum that Americans will take it at face value and discount the memo.
But if the public trusted the media, there would not be a President Trump. (Psst, they haven’t figured that out yet)
The more and more people know now that the Fake News Media is nothing more than Pravda on its best day. They will draw their own conclusions all at the same time they see the bump in their paychecks thanks to Trump’s Tax Cut. Didn’t the Democrats and their media dogs say this was bad and going to kill you?
You will see Trump go out of his way to trigger the media in his own special way and as the dolts they are they will publicize the Memo when its released.
Timing....it’s all about timing.
I bet it has something to do with the Russians.
Those who can be implicated in acts of sedition and treason like you Nancy should shut up.
If someone wants to bitch about context or lacking background info, release it all, right now, before it gets more messed up.
I don’t believe the Judiciary can do anything about it.
Separation of Powers thingy.
I hope as the memo is released Trump uses twitter to post all those that made fun of his statement a year ago about being “wiretapped”.
WINNING!!!
Exactly. Perfectedly explained.
Kudos to you!
People here get so frustrated, but in reality we’ve been winning bigly, and while the whole Russian thing was illegally hatched by the Obama admin, it is they—the Obama admin, the democrats and the media—who have dug themselves a hole way too deep to climb out of. The whole thing is about to blow up in their collective faces.
Let them keep at it a day or two more.
If not for President Trump, FReepers would be much more frustrated!!!
