    Default FBI to fight Trump’s demand for ‘immediate declassification’ of Russia probe material

    President Donald Trump has routinely acted in unprecedented ways while handling the FBI — and now the FBI is taking steps to assert their independence from the president.

    According to Bloomberg, the FBI is expected to derail Trump’s demand to release classified information into the Russia probe
    In a statement, Trump ordered the immediate disclamations of documents and text messages relating to the Russia investigation.

    “In addition, President Donald J. Trump has directed the Department of Justice (including the FBI) to publicly release all text messages relating to the Russia investigation, without redaction, of James Comey, Andrew McCabe, Peter Strzok, Lisa Page, and Bruce Ohr,” the statement read.

    However, the FBI appears to be taking its time.

    “Agency officials aren’t asserting to Trump’s demand for ‘immediate declassification’ of some materials related to the Russia investigation, and are likely to push for redactions, according to people with knowledge of the matter,” Bloomberg reported.

    A source told Bloomberg that the agency is reviewing Trump’s request, but might keep some information “secret or redacted” in order to protect confidential sources.

    Senator Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH) said in a statement that Trump’s request is for “political purposes, which puts lives at risk.

    Anonymous sources again?

    Here's the reality check for all you brain dead snowflakes on the liberal left. Trump isn't the one acting in unprecedented ways. That is reserved for the un-elected high level Justice Department officials, many who have been fired already or re-assigned who think they can circumvent the rule of law, spy on an opposition campaign and undermine a duly elected President.

    Secondly, as the Commander and Chief the FBI cannot usurp his order to declassify and release documents and for the morons who still think they can, they only have one recourse of action; resign.

    What is amazing in this debate is that the media and the left, who are always pretending they want transparency, are now suddenly adamantly against it; why do you think that is swnoflake?

    It is rather ironic that the same morons who cheered the release of highly classified documents by Bradley Manning and Edward Snowden, which really caused damage, now whine when trump releases harmless documents that put no one but the Democratic Party of the Jackass morons at risk.

    STFU you brain dead hypocrites.

    Trump does not care about the FBI or CIA. If they do not back him, they should be destroyed. All the norms are gone. It is about Donnie all the time. That is all that matters. we are in the trumptocracy, a kleptomaniac type of government based on looting.

    trump may get more than he wants. Cohen has been talking to Mueller about his Russian connections and deals, perhaps including money laundering.
