A White House official confirmed to reporters that President Donald Trump has read the House Intelligence Committee FISA memo after the committee voted to release it to the public.
[...]
White House officials confirmed to Breitbart News that Trump will likely declassify the memo on Friday, despite a few technical edits made by House Intelligence Chairman Devin Nunes.

Those changes were grammatical in nature, and requested by the Democrats.
As soon as he agreed to them, then the Democrats went out and claimed he was altering the memo without consent.
These bastards should be shot at high noon.
“technical edits” eh? I wont mind if you remove these aholes names but effing fire OR jail them.
NO REDACTIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!
Im confused as to why he would turn this into a Friday document dump on Super Bowl weekend.
I agree — no redactions.
I’d mind if the names were redacted, very much so.
I don't know, but I trust him.
Maybe there is more to come -- a lot more. Plus, the people who care are going to read it and not be distracted by Super Bowl.
” First story I’ve seen that confirms that Pres. has read the memo. “
was NOT an official confirmation (simply ANOTHER anonymous source story); Brietbart deliberately used misleading phrasing to make it SEEM like it’s an official confirmation ...
You're not the only one, my FRiend.
It’ll be worthless if they redact the names....
****Im confused as to why he would turn this into a Friday document dump on Super Bowl weekend.****
More importantly, it’s GROUNDHOG DAY!!!!!!!
We can just ask the FISA court to unmask them like Obama did..
White House officials confirmed to Breitbart News that Trump will likely declassify the memo on Friday, despite a few technical edits made by House Intelligence Chairman Devin Nunes.
Good grief, why, why, why, give more time to the enemy to discredit the memo?
As I said the day it was voted out of committee, leak it now!
Coumo tried to grill Peter King (R-NY) this morning on said “alteration”.
Implying the change was due to FBI pointing out some error that was false, King answered back saying flatly,
“No, no, Chris, you’re listening to the Democrats. What was changed was not because it was FALSE, but because it was TRUE!”
I nearly cheered out loud. Nice stop on Chris Coumo. Slammed.
At this point my understanding is that the WH and Chairman Nunes have agreed to make a few but by no means all of the redactions the FBI has requested; that the FBI still opposes the release of the memo, but the WH has told them to get bent, and that Trump has approved the request to release the classified information contained in the memo; and that the memo has been returned to the House Intel. Committee and that its release by the Committee will take place tomorrow morning.
He's sending a very strong message to the NFL when the biggest news story in 15+ years hits the news on Super Bowl weekend ... just a few weeks after he made a point of attending the college football national championship in person.
Gives me heartburn.
