Trump directed his attorney general to declassify documents in an effort to depict Donald Trump’s campaign as a victim of improper surveillance in 2016. Trump tweeted that the attorney general “requested” these powers. That may even be true. But Trump has been demanding such an investigation of U.S. intelligence agencies since long before Barr got the top law-enforcement job. Barr is compliant and complicit, but the idea is all Trump’s.
The declassification process will be selective, of course, in service to a predetermined narrative. ...
Who will trust or credit in any way the integrity of a Barr-led investigation? The intelligence agencies found evidence that alarmed them enough about the campaign’s Russia connections to justify a request for warrants. A federal court reviewed that evidence and authorized and reauthorized it. Will that evidence be declassified?

Yup. Declassifying formerly secret, redacted documents and then releasing them to the public - that just totally smells like a coverup to me.
Jeeze Louise these people are so goddamn dumb it beggars belief.
How is it that the Republicans have been losing to these clowns? It has to be intentional.
“Publish the full, completely un-redacted Mueller Report! (Ot at least let Congress see it.) Transparency requires it!” ~ The Democrats
“Don’t you DARE declassify all the documents pertaining to the genesis and evolution of the RussiaGate Hoax!” ~ Also the Democrats
Reconcile.

Indeed!
They neglect to mention that their warrant obtained under false pretenses is illegitimate. The law enforcement petitioning the FISA Court is under a heavy burden because it is a one sided presentation, hence the court demands they present all known information. They failed that test and that fact is what AG Barr was referring to in his testimony before the Senate committee. That was not what the DemonRats wanted to hear.
Bill Barr didn't have to come out of retirement for this job. He did so as a principled man acting out of his own perception that a fair hearing on the facts was desperately needed for our nation. He will fulfill that mission and he deserves our gratitude.
Who let this wackjob out of his padded cell? Frum? A turncoat POS from way back. That’s why “The Atlantic” publishes him. He makes “crazy” sound like reality.
I need a drink! Make that several, and I don’t drink.
They are not 'dumb', but raging heathen. They have polled a meme ... Watergate ... 'cover-up' and all their whores in the mass media will be chanting like a prayer .... 'cover-up' to distract from disclosure... Republicans have been in on the 'chant' of the raging heathen... most likely because their own acts are being held against them .... We have a supreme court jester Roberts that from day to day is like a spinning top... Wonder WHY?
Bush toadie is lecturing me about Trump’s Cover-Up?

It’s so covered up, no one knows what’s covered up.
Yep. Just like a judge considering issuing an arrest or search warrant, all the FISA court reviews is the affidavit. They assume the FIB won’t lie to them. Hopefully, after this mess is revealed, that will change.
“How is it that the Republicans have been losing to these clowns? It has to be intentional.”
Part of the problem is that the Never-Trumpers like Frum were the leading lights of Bush era Republicans.
Fortunately, these Never-Trumpers are trying to help the Democrats now... Trump wins again !
What a pile of shit!
Degenerates gaslighting the people...
When and IF the whole conspiracy is exposed, the 'never-trumpets' will be shown to have been in collusion with the libtards, that attempted to take down candidate Trump... and then assist in the coup that was to remove him from a duly certified election. Conservatives have been deceived by those that traded in and on the concept of what to be a 'conservative' literally means. God, Family and Country. These frauds are quite bright with their usage of the language.
David Frum is not stupid. He is simply a far left wing activist that promulgates lies and pretends to be a journalist.
David Jeffrey Frum is a Canadian-American political commentator. A speechwriter for President George W. Bush, Frum later authored the first book about Bush’s presidency written by a former member of the administration. He was credited with inspiring the phrase “axis of evil” in Bush’s 2002 State of the Union address.
Sounds like a Bushie to me.
He also pretends he’s a conservative. He was a speech writer for George W. Bush.
Just like Peggy Noonan, they don't walk it like they write it.
That’s why the MSM love them. Token ‘conservatives’.
Yes, sweetie, you can count on it.
Exactly correct. He did not need this job. Our nation needed him. He answered the call for our nation.
