Trump gives AG Barr authority to declassify documents related to 2016 campaign surveillance

Fox News ^ | 5/23/19 | Fox

[week 71]

President Trump on Thursday night issued a memo

[a fool in paradise]

Release the names of the congressmen and their staff who’s sex offenses were silenced with a $17,000,0000 taxpayer slush fund.

Put them on double defense. We paid for the hush money. Transparency.

[1Old Pro]

I laughed when Nadler suggested we don’t need any more investigations.

[Grampa Dave]

BOL!

Let’s hope so.

[catnipman]

this is YUGE!

This is basically like detonating a nuclear political bomb

[catnipman]

“Someone please explain how this decision can benefit DJT?”

because it will release documentation that proves the treasonous actions of the obama deep state to depose a duly elected President of the United States, including Comey, McCabe, Ohr, Brennan, Clapper, and probably Obama himself ... it’s a countermove in response to the House subpoenaing his taxes and financial records from private banks ...

[catnipman]

“I wonder if Nancy’s “intervene’ nonsense was that last straw for Trump?”

that might very well be ... but also, i think Trump got fed up with the House subpoenaing all of his private financial records back when he was a private citizen and threatening him and his officials with fines, jail, impeachment and a bunch of other BS ...

the Dems are doing all of the above to try to weaken his reelection chances in 2020 and Trump is doing this as a counter move to show how treasonous and corrupt the Dems really are ...

Once these documents are publicly released, Trump will be able to attack the Dems with them on the campaign trail ...

Under the new AG, as the investigation digs deep, I’m sure that a number of so far ‘unindicted conspirators’ within the Deep State are making travel arrangements to locations where there is no extradition to the US. Among them, perhaps even Her Cankleness, though her ultimate pride and sense of entitlement might overcome her sense of self preservation.

Re: the party list.

Chelsea: I won’t invite that guy with the big ears who insulted my mom when she was running against him.

[know.your.why]

I’ll always have heart-warming memories of Memorial Day weekend 2019 thanks to this. Thanks Mr. President.

Love,
A proud Republican US citizen.

I'm sure his side doesn't.

I think that this move may be predicated on the DOJIG needing the declassification so that he can release an unredacted, or minimally redacted, report and to allow AG Barr to open documents up for US Attorney Huber and Durham to use in a timely manner instead of spending months trying to get them from the other agencies.

That's an interesting theory. It would also allow Inspector General Horowitz to release his report with far fewer redactions, making it much more intelligible to people. Given that the IG report is all about FBI and DOJ misbehavior (by definition, that's all the OIG works on) the more transparent and un-redacted that report is the better!

[Jack Black]

Solomon is a good reporter.

[Jack Black]

Release the names of the congressmen and their staff who’s sex offenses were silenced with a $17,000,0000 taxpayer slush fund.

That's not information that the DOJ probably has access to. That's the Houses information. To bad Paul Ryan didn't release it, but then he's a RINO punk.

Did anyone see Trump today on his way to Japan talking about the declassification of documents? Trump just said yes I gave Barr the authority to declass anything he feels he needs to and I don’t even know how many documents are in there, two million maybe. I think he is one greatest Presidents this Country has ever had.

After reading the slew of articles on the Dem’s reaction to declassification I think that they know that the IG report had to redact “evidence” of putting a thumb on the scale and now are frantic that it will be unredacted. Fear my FRiend is want is driving this.

[A Formerly Proud Canadian]

I’m sure that Her Cankleness would be welcomed with open arms by Vlad in Russia.

[djstex]

Best line in a debate EVER!
Love Our President!

[dragnet2]

For many decades the corrupt called the shots and most everyone was silent and many others actually voted for the corrupt institutionalized establishment ruling class.....But within 2 or 3 years of Trumps presidency they want them all charged, prosecuted and jailed NOW....Not later Now....lol.

Other than in the voting booth supporting the entrenched corrupt, where were all you people for the past 40 years?

[Candor7]

Dems are caterwauling already.

” You Plick! Dequassify iz UnAmewican and racist!”

I love to watch the Dem pit of snakes writhe in fear of their coming destruction!
