thedailycaller ^ | 2/02/8 | Richard Pollock

Posted on 02/02/2018 8:14:14 PM PST by blueyon

On the same day the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence released the Nunes memo showing the FBI relied on the salacious and unverified Trump dossier to obtain a surveillance warrant on Carter Page, a federal judge ruled to withhold the Comey memos. The memos, authored by former FBI Director James Comey, are about his nine private conversations with President-elect and President Trump.

Seems the judge should have recused himself. Why hasn’t Trump just ordered their release?

It must be Comey’s husband.

Did he declare this man to be his attorney when he originally leaked the info?

No, he called him a friend.

Did he identify this man as his lawyer to Congress?

No, he called him a friend (didn’t he?).

This is just a coverup dodge.

Can Hitlerly protect her communications with Huma by calling her “wife” or “legal counsel”?

"U.S. District Judge James Boasberg, who ruled in favor of the FBI’s request to keep the Comey memos secret, also sits on the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court. The FISA court is the same court that approved the surveillance on Trump associates."

Congress needs to do its job in solving the FISC problem.

Can’t win a war on terror by turning the U.S.A. into a police state with only one effective branch of government. The legislative and executive branches under Clinton and Bush gave their powers away.

“Boasberg refused to release the documents on the basis they were still being used by special counsel Robert Mueller in his investigation of the alleged Russian collusion with Trump associates.”

Odd.

Trump can declassify anything.

And, as Chief Executive Officer of the Department of Justice, Trump can order Attorney General Jeff Sessions or Deputy A.G. Rod Rosenstein to release the Comey Memos to the news media.

It's time to put the “Release Heat” on Donald Trump.

While we're at it, we also the need to see the Russia-related FISA Applications, the FISA Warrants, and the full transcripts for all Russia-related FISA court hearings.

Rosenstein would tell Trump to pound sand. And then Sessions would remind us that Rosenstein, a fine, upstanding public servant, has his full confidence. Nobody is perfect, after all.

Re: “Rosenstein would tell Trump to pound sand.”

In which case Trump would have transparent legal cause to terminate Rosenstein.

Trump could then nominate someone who obeys the Constitution to be the new D.A.G.

In fact, there is absolutely no reason why Trump can't walk into Mueller's office tomorrow morning, and hand Mueller an Executive Order to turn over the Comey Memos to the news media.

If Mueller refused, Trump could fire Mueller.

What is the news media going to do?

Refuse to publish them at the same moment their editors and film critics are praising the movie about the Washington Post releasing the Pentagon Papers?

You know how they hang dead coyote from barbed wire fence to warn the others to stay the h*** out of Dewey county?
On the first day of CWII, would it be over the top to start hanging Democrats and RINOs from the WH fence?

Comey’s memo SECRET??

LIKE HUSSEIN O. records, all locked neatly away from the public...and even his and Hillary Health records are now locked from the public knowing any thing...

I say it is time to UNLOCK that box of HUSSEIN'S...and let the TRUTH BE MADE KNOWN...

OK, think about what he knows. Now, think about what you know.

Who do you think is better qualified to decide when to release anything?
