Trump inflames war on Justice Dept. by declassifying Russia docs
CNN ^ | 18 Sept 2018 | Laura Jarrett, Sophie Tatum, Kate Sullivan, Jeremy Herb

President Donald Trump showed no signs of backing off his highly unprecedented order to declassify various documents and text messages related to the Russia investigation Tuesday, saying he wants it done for "transparency."

The move, which has prompted renewed unease about the increasing politicization of intelligence materials, is likely to further inflame tensions between the President and intelligence and law enforcement officials, who have been the target of presidential Twitter tirades and who have voiced concerns in the past about potentially jeopardizing sources and methods.

All of a sudden, CNN is real concerned about "the increasing politicization of intelligence materials."

This after oppo research was used by the Democrats to steer the intelligence apparatus of the United States and its Five Eyes partners into the task of surveilling their political opponent in a presidential election campaign.

Yeah baby! Media was complicit. They knew the dossier was fake and used for the FISA warrants to spy but they didn’t report it. There may be some journalists that actively conspired with FBI and they could be in legal jeopardy.

At minimum, the enemedia has lost even more credibility.

They don’t want to expose sources and methods?

I can understand that .

They don’t want to disclose that the source was Hillary Clinton and the method was they just made it all up to frame an innocent President Trump and remove him from office

Senator Patrick "Leaky" Leahy destroyed a billion-dollar USAF stealth satellite program by leaking top secret information about it.

What’s the matter CNN? You can literally read their fear in this article. Yeah, I would be scared too if I were these folks because the facts will show they’ve been aiding and abetting the treasonous activities perpetrated by the Swamp!

Brats angry they got caught up in their own dirty deeds. In no way are they done dirt cheap, either. We the taxpayer have been picking up the tab to pay those who undo our liberties as voters.

They deserve something far more severe than what the system of government will deliver. Let the voters decide.

There are some who work, or worked, for the Administration that seem to forget that the President is, and will remain, their boss, the single supreme voice of We the People. And if the boss wants something pulled out of the filing cabinet, you don’t argue with him, you ask him how fast he wants it and then you give it to him. With your mouth zipped.
