The spying is an event of enormous consequences, with no known precedent in American history, because it catches the incumbent party targeting the candidate of the opposition party. Even Richard Nixon didn’t weaponize law enforcement and intelligence agencies to this extent.
Additionally, the timing of the spying effort matters because it began before the FBI says it started its counterintelligence probe into the Trump campaign. So was that official July start date another James Comey lie?
There is an additional option. Trump has the power to declassify virtually any government document, making it accessible by the public under Freedom of Information Law requests. That’s the best route and the only one with a chance to lead to timely transparency. Justice and the FBI could make objections on national security or personal safety grounds, but final decisions should be made by a qualified team led by Kelly, with a prejudice toward openness, not secrecy.
The time is up for professional gatekeepers like Comey and Rosenstein to control what the public knows. They have done nothing but add to distrust of the FBI and that will not change if their ilk makes the final decisions.
By insisting that the documents go online, Trump would be letting taxpayers see for themselves what the government was up to, and what it was hiding. And to connect the dots between the various agencies involved.

Didn’t 0bama write a book about that? “The Audacity of Bull S#!t.”
And defending this spying will make it hard to deny. So proud they are today. Hopefully charges follow and let’s see how they feel bankrupted and in prison.
publish now.
Maybe we should start referring to these spies as plumbers, and Trump as Deep Throat.
We can name Mueller and Rosenstein Haldeman or another cast character.
Particularly, in this case, the 4th.
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.
And the Media right along with them.
Classification is determined by the Executive Branch. We all know who heads that. If the President says it is releasable, done. I wonder, how many rats, DOJ stooges, and FBI traitors would immediately try to cut a deal or flee to s non-extradition country....
Trump is playing his cards very well.
Rush hit this one outa Park on his radio program today.
What a mess! Can’t be fixed. Needs to be gutted and torn down to the very foundation.
Didn’t Obama say his administration was the most transparent ever.
How about “The Transparency of Bull S#!t”?
This country needs a cathartic series of hangings on Pay Per View.
Its all about protecting Obama. Obama, the most vile man ever to be President, corrupted Federal agencies and plotted to subvert American democracy. Justice demands arrests and convictions of not only the Obama commissars ( Brennan, Clapper, Comey, McCabe and Lynch) but Obama himself.

He evolved from transparent to opaque.
Trump as usual is playing the long game

They weren’t “spies”. They were agent provocateurs assigned specific missions. These missions were NOT to “be on the lookout for Russians colluding with the Trump campaign or attempting to effect the election”. The agent provocateurs working for OBAMA’S intelligence leaders were assigned to arrange for the APPEARANCE of the Trump campaign “colluding” with Russians.
Yes. President Trump should absolutely declassify everything related to this. Sunshine is the best disinfectant.
