If revealing the identity of an informant endangers the life, then the identity of that informant should be kept secret. Other than this, is there any reason why any of these FBI / DOJ documents should be marked classified?

Why not release all the documents? Is there anything in them that would give the Russie’s an advantage? How could it? We are told that the Russie’s created all colluded in the creation of this information. So they already know it.

Or is Arkancide such a threat to FBI professionals that they must be redacted?

House says some minor changes were made at request of FBI and Dems - probably more like foot notes for clarification - nobody but the Dems and Deep State FBI/DOJ making any noises about problems with releasing it....

When headlines read THE FBI SAYS IT’S FAKE NEWS ....IF IS’S NOT BACKED UP BY THIS
All government agencies have a verifiable method of communication known as a press release which has a contact name on it when issued.and that authorized name indicates that it is an official position taken by that agency.

The media is lying and propagandizing this issue .

They didn’t seem to care one iota about omissions when they presented evidence to a FISA court without revealing that it was completely unvetted.

They are free to produce a different memo delineating the omissions. That too can be verified for veracity by committee and released.

This is the latest desperate attempt by the Left/Deep State/Democrat Party to discredit the memo that will likely result in many of them dancing at the ends of ropes.

Thank you for the report!

Trump to declassify surveillance memo, sources say – as Pelosi seeks Nunes ouster [Excerpt, emphasis in bold mine. --familyop]
Fox News
February 1, 2018
by John Roberts
Next steps are not yet clear, but the president may transmit the letter back to the committee with a declaration that it has been declassified. The committee would then release the memo.
Under official rules, the committee is technically able to release such information after a five-day period unless the president objects. The committee formally started that clock with a vote this past Monday.

So maybe tomorrow (Friday).

This is bad. Wray and the DOJ would not make the demand, unless they thought someone had something to blackmail the Pres with.

Wouldn’t redacting names from the memo constitute “omissions?”

FBI Director Must Be Prepared to Resign Over Nunes Memo, Ex-Agents Warn
https://www.thedailybeast.com/fbi-director-christopher-wray-must-be-prepared-to-resign-over-nunes-memo-ex-agents-warn

The Daily Beast is a disgusting publication, but the details in that article do show that a ratfest is being threatened. There are highly likely individuals also threatening to blackmail the President and/or his advisors. We’ll see what he does.

Treason is punishable by death. To subvert our government from the inside IS TREASON. There is no law allowing anyone in government to do this. This is the worst possible crime. The FBI, DOJ, CIA, AND NSA are Rouge elements in our democracy and harsh action needs to be taken, including being disbanded.

And by the way, I still have concerns that Omaha was an inside job. Just look at the pattern, its just to coincidencdental.
