Tomorrow could be a yuge day for justice if the GOP lawmakers get their way. They will be asking President Trump to declassify all Russian documents so that they can finally get to the bottom of the Obama administration’s spying on the Trump campaign.
Especially since there is possible evidence that Obama himself ordered the spying and that Loretta Lynch signed for a document she knew was untrue. Once that is released, we will kknow everything we need to know about the FISA warrants. If the president declassifies the documents, the FBI and the DOJ would be powerless in trying to hold onto them.
The GOP lawmakers intend to formally announced their push on Thursday at a press conference. Trump has long backed his allies’ complaints that the Justice Department has withheld sensitive documents that might expose bias behind the Russia probe, which was launched in July 2016 by the FBI. In January, he agreed to declassify a memo crafted by GOP staff of the House Intelligence Committee that officially confirmed, for the first time, the existence of the Page surveillance warrant. That document had been reported in media but not formally acknowledged by the FBI.
Ohr testified last week to members of the House Judiciary Committee and House Oversight and Government Reform Committee. GOP lawmakers emerged from the interview suggesting that Ohr had shed light on doubts about the credibility of the information Steele gathered in 2016 that suggested Trump’s campaign engaged in a conspiracy with Russian officials to help win the presidential election.
Once these documents are declassified and Jeff Sessions is fired, we might finally get some justice. Democrats can start their own protest group, Occupy Cell Block D. But, I don’t suggest they try to build a wall or set the dumpsters on fire. The managers there take a dim view of activity like that.
