TRUMP GIVES ATTORNEY GENERAL AUTHORITY TO DECLASSIFY RUSSIA PROBE DOCUMENTS

Daily Caller: President Donald Trump has directed the heads of several government agencies to cooperate with Attorney General William Barr’s investigation of the origins of the Russia probe.

In a memo sent out Thursday, Trump also authorized Barr to declassify documents related to the Russia investigation.

The memo grants Barr the authority to “declassify, downgrade, or direct the declassification or downgrading of information or intelligence” related to the Russia probe as he sees fit.

Barr has said that he is investigating whether government agencies improperly surveilled members of the Trump campaign. In testimony to Congress, Barr has asserted that the FBI and other agencies spied on the campaign by using informants and surveillance warrants.   more

  1. BUT!!! We now have to wait for the alphabets to hand over the stuff Barr demanded from them.
    I know Barr has plenty already, but he’s gonna need everything out of their pockets and their shoes, too. Oh, and check their assholes for drugs, while they’re at it. What? Yeah I know it’s not a drug case. I’m just mean.

  2. POTUS Trump is doing the dangerous thing of all, he’s giving our gov’t back to us. He promised he would do everything in his power to “take our country back.” If ever there was a time in living history (yes, because most of us don’t predate Wilson), when the zombie creatures of Foggy Bottom will rise up to end us, this is it. Carry your garlic, wooden crosses, silver bullets and beware.

    Just yesterday he told all America, “I don’t do cover ups!” And he doesn’t do empty rhetoric, either. I love our president.

  3. We’ll know who is behind it by who screams loudest against it being declassified.

    And, maybe, who has an unfortunate accident or just disappears before it is (just my cynical nature speaking out here).

  4. I think Schiff, Warner, Nadler and a couple of other Dems are gonna crap themselves. They had been helping the DNC and hillary out by leaking to the media and meeting up with the playwrights.

  5. I remain skeptical about the level of cooperation that will be achieved. Without some serious painful arm twisting. Something more that just the threat of it happening if the cooperation level remains low.

  6. I don’t know if we’ll ever know the truth of Hillary Clinton’s supposed meltdown in which she said, “If that f-ing bastard Trump wins, we all hang from nooses!”, but in a political sphere that favors safeguarding their own and especially a bias toward protecting the Clintons, this does sound exactly like something she would say.

    It’s a shame we don’t still have public hangings for treason.

  7. I tuned into MSNBC tonight. I haven’t had that channel on since the OJ Simpson trial. I thought Nadler looked peaked and like the wind was knocked put of his, heretofore, extremely large sails. And I thought Rachel Maddow wanted him to tell her the declassification order was all just a bad dream. LOL

  8. Mark 4:22
    New Living Translation
    For everything that is hidden will eventually be brought into the open, and every secret will be brought to light.
    Please, Lord, let it be so. And we pray a hedge of protection over the innocent and the righteous, in the name of Jesus, Amen.

  9. The FBI spying was called Operation Crossfire Hurricane, just like in the lyrics of Jumping Jack Flash.
    “I was born in a cross-fire hurricane
    And I howled at the morning driving rain
    But it’s all right now, in fact, it’s a gas
    But it’s all right. I’m Jumpin’ Jack Flash
    It’s a gas, gas, gas”

    No wonder President Trump plays “You can’t always get what you want” at the end of his rallies.

    Trump was always going to have the last laugh. 🙂
