DOJ, Federal judges... which will try to stop the release?
17 Sept: Fox News: Trump orders feds to declassify key FISA documents, text messages in FBI Russia probe
By Samuel Chamberlain; Fox News’ Jake Gibson, John Roberts and Catherine Herridge contributed to this report.
The source added that the Justice Department is working on a “compressed timeline” and they expect the first release of records in days or sooner. The text messages are expected to take longer because of the sheer number involved and the fact that Trump ordered their release without redactions.
A Justice Department spokesperson told Fox News that the DOJ and FBI “are already working with the Director of National Intelligence to comply with the President’s order.”.
ODNI spokesperson Kellie Wade told Fox News: “As requested by the White House, the ODNI is working expeditiously with our interagency partners to conduct a declassification review of the documents the President has identified for declassification.”
Congressional sources told Fox News that House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes, R-Calif., does not know how soon he will get the documents, but said Trump’s order covers “pretty much everything that he wanted ... and the text messages are a bonus.”
According to the sources, Nunes added: “Wow! This is a direct order.”
