“And declassification should be a good pretext on which the DOJ should pursue criminal charges against the conspirators.”
The DOJ are the conspirators for the most part.
The DOJ has been, that’s for sure. I hope that will change. Personally I think the FBI/DOJ immunity deals were in furtherance of the conspiracy and should be invalidated. A criminal in the DOJ can’t be permitted to give immunity to his/her co-conspirators.
There is another reason to delay - Trump may wish to try to wait out Mueller. He doesn’t want to give the left the ammo to say “you are only doing this to distract from/counter-attack the Mueller investigation. Once Muller wraps up, it will be a relatively open field to hunt the conspirators. Plus, with Mueller done Trump won’t continue to have that hanging over him, Mueller won’t be able to drag it on and dig into ridiculous aspects of Trump’s personal pre-political life but if this becomes a war of attrition the Democrats will surely demand he stay on and keep digging. Let Mueller finish, then it’s game on.
