White House: ‘We Don’t Have To Approve’ Release Of Explosive FISA Memo
http://dailycaller.com ^ | 01/24/2018 | SAAGAR ENJETI

The White House does not have to approve the release of a currently classified memo assembled within the House of representatives which purports to display extensive abuse of FISA authority within the FBI, deputy press secretary Hogan Gidley told WMAL Wednesday morning.

“We don’t have to approve it. They have the right to de-classify the document,” Gidley told Daily Caller editorial director Vince Coglianese and WMAL host, citing “legal minds” consulted by the executive branch.

But the Justice Department is FIGHTING its release! Sessions defends the Swamp AGAIN.

Hmmm... believe that's the first I've heard of this. Got a link or something? Where did you first hear about this?

They sent a letter over to Congress today arguing against release of the memo.

Sessions is doing exactly what Trump wants him to do ......not what we on the outside think he should be doing. Thank God that’s the way it is.

The last thing anyone wants to do is half-assedly rush this out with a “See? Gotcha!” only to have many of the pages they didn’t read appear and the Ds say, “This completely contradicts that, hence the whole doc is unreliable.”

><><

Exactly!

“When they do release it people will be willing to pay admission and the MSM won’t be able to ignore it.”

Correct, and on target, tiki.

I think the rats are in the process of overplaying their hand. Once the memo is released Schiffty is going to release the rat response. In order to verify which is right the underlying documentation will likewise have to be released.

I think ... move up the timeline - memo early next week ... but it has been said that when Trump left the country, the sting would drop & storm would come onshore. Trump is now on his way to Davos ;)

“Are you saying the DoJ is trying to keep the memo from the public? Do you have a link? That’s unbelievable.”

Looks like montag813 served up a crap sandwich and expects us to eat it.

I think the best idea I heard was let President Trump read it in its entirety at the SOTU address.

This is the only way we can get any MSM coverage of the memo.

No link. Lou Dobbs reported it early in his show tonight.

Sessions defends the Swamp AGAIN.


Sessions is the swamp and is standing on the plug that keeps it from draining.

I guess you’re playing the same role that Leslie Nielsen played in Naked Gun —- saying “Please disperse. Nothing to see here.”

On Lou’s show just now, it was said that the committee would convene on Monday and then they would schedule a vote. The guest from Judicial Watch said the memo should be read at the SOTU.

They say timing is everything, in this case its the only thing. Even the Dems know its just a question of when, not if. And even they aren’t so stupid as to try to say it shouldn’t be released, they just bad-mouth it and trot out some stupid memo of their own as a distraction.

State of the Union is six days away, could be a hell of a show...
