webfact Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Trump directs FBI to declassify information related to Russia investigation U.S. President Donald Trump holds the inaugural meeting of the President's National Council for the American Worker at the White House in Washington, U.S., September 17, 2018. REUTERS/Kevin Lamarque WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Donald Trump has directed the FBI to immediately declassify additional information related to the investigation into possible election meddling by Russia, the White House said on Monday. He has also directed the Justice Department to publicly release text messages relating to the Russia investigation without redaction from former FBI Director James Comey, former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, as well as other former and current Justice Department officials, including recently fired FBI agent Peter Strzok who has come under fire for sending texts disparaging Trump as a presidential candidate.

Popular Post Nyezhov Posted September 18, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted September 18, 2018 The thing that tells me that there is a problem in some of this "classified" stuff are the screeches to keep it secret and the lack of interest from the left-leaning media. It is a sad commentary on the state of Journalism in America today that they do not seem particularly interested in finding out even whether the story of government misconduct is true. and before you accuse me of being a trumpy apologist, please know that I don't trust any government. They are always up to something. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this going to be like Devin Nunes running to the White House and press with documents he got from the White House that he said would prove stuff (other than another example of Trump/Nunes inept criminality). No body’s accusing you of being a Trump apologist, if you were would you have so cruelly tortured his pal Manafort with your avowed assertions that he (Manafort) was not ever going to be convicted?! 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nyezhov, your proclamations regarding Manafort’s innocence and assertions that he would not be convicted are lodged in people’s minds - especially so because while making your assertions you batted us all about the head with statements regarding your lawyer qualifications and experience. You possessed the air of one who has great knowledge to share. But you were utterly wrong. Many of us feel greatly let down, such disappointment is hard to forget. Fritshikkink isn’t stalking you, he’s more likely simply reliving a painful memory of disappointment. 4 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are always up to something. Where is the lack of interest by the "left-leaning media"? They have reported that Trump wants classified documents released. As the documents are classified they have no idea what they contain. Do you expect them to make assumptions about the contents? I suspect Fox may have more of an idea about the contents as Trump has probably told Hannity all about them. More obstruction of justice? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a blatant interference in an ongoing investigation and dangerous to the intelligence community and members of the law enforcement as it reveals secrets methods of investigation and will make it harder to recruit informants. So in one word; NO. PS. I have given you a direct answer to a direct question.

Did you feel the same way during Iran-Contra? your use of the term Manchild destroys a lot of your credibility. Let me ask you another direct question, if the Declassified documents show abuse, what say you? if folks drink the Trump Kool-Aid, don't some folks drink the anti-trump Kool-Aid?

Nice try Becker but you are never going to get the likes of Nyezhov, Boon Mee and the likes to ever admit they are wrong. They come on this forum defending their beloved Trump and when they get proven time and time again to be full of it they just wait for the next Trump story (daily obviously) in the vain hope of getting some morsel of good information to corroborate their deep state, libtards and the biased MSM narrative. This story is obviously another example of Trump's willingness to abuse his power on almost a daily basis. The obvious red line that this crosses puts the FBI and the justice department in an impossible situation wherein an ongoing investigation into a sitting president is put in jeopardy by the very same sitting President. I've said it before and I will say it again, Trump believes he is above the law and has consistently done everything he can to confuse and misdirect this investigation. He has changed his story so many times I'm getting dizzy but truth will be out and I am confident that the worse president EVER will soon be just a bad footnote in history. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(my bold emphasis) Whatever happened to Trump's attorney insisting that Mueller comply with the unofficial Department of Justice “60-day rule" policy that stipulates that investigators should not take any actions within two months of an election to avoid influencing the outcome. I can't see anyone in the Justice Department complying with Trump's "wishes." If there is Justice Department support to comply with Trump's wish, Mueller should be free than to immediately bring indictments against all suspected parties related to the Russian election interference conspiracy as well as other federal criminal violations. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
