Released, or not?

Is a tweet a legal authorization? I really don’t know.

So the takeaway here is that the DOJ is still trying to coverup their bad acts and refuses to release documents. Which they did last time Trump authorized Barr to release documents, nothing released. Anyone still think Barr is a white hat?

Authorized is not the same as ordered.

“I have fully authorized the total Declassification of any & all documents pertaining to the single greatest political CRIME in American History, the Russia Hoax. Likewise, the Hillary Clinton Email Scandal. No redactions!” Trump tweeted on Oct. 6.”


First, it does not say ‘I am authorizing.’

Second, where is the proof that he, in fact, did authorize it?

I don’t think a tweet — in the past tense—cuts it.

PS: I would love to see it ALL redacted.

The Federal Judge is correct. The President’s order is Crystal Clear. There is nothing in the Constitution that dictates what form a Direct Order from the Chief Executive must take. There’s no law and if there were it would likely be unconstitutional.
The DOJ is playing games in order to delay hoping he will lose in November. The entire Swamp, Barr included, has been playing this game.

As I posted, in part, yesterday on this topic of declassification:

And the president needs to remember that the bureaucracy will not accept a tweet, such as the one directing the declassification and release without redaction, as an order. Having spent a number of years doing FOIA and declassification, he needs to put that tweet into writing as an Executive Order. That move will make any bureaucratic ‘wiggling’ around avoiding the tweet as direct disobedience of an E.O.

And I fully concur with the President’s ordering the complete declassification and release, without any redactions of the documents in question.

................all THINKING and LUCID freepers and Americans KNEW back in the month or two before Election 2016 that THROWING RAGING BULL Trump into the jewelry store was going to make a big mess. Let’s all be patient and give the man the benefit of the doubt until he leaves office.

Nobody in that office has ever tried harder or more sincerely for ALL Americans than Donald Trump.
