    Default TIC TOC! Trump gives Barr power to declassify U.S. secrets in review of Russia probe

    Here it comes; the train wreck that was the corrupt and criminal Obama Administration and all the party hacks who thought they could use the power of the Government to destroy an opposing political campaign are about to come crashing down.

    This is truly awesome; no more hiding behind a cloak of secrecy. It's all coming out you Marxist Fascistic dunces.

    The lies that Shifty Schiff will be caught in would be politically devastating if not for the fact that his constituency is full of Fascistic low IQ buffoons.

    Trump gives Barr power to declassify U.S. secrets in review of Russia probe

    By Associated Press May 24, 2019 | 5:25 AM

    President Trump has given Atty. Gen. William P. Barr broad power to declassify government secrets, and directed the U.S. intelligence community to "quickly and fully cooperate" with Barr's investigation into the origins of the multiyear probe of whether Trump’s 2016 campaign colluded with Russia.

    The move Thursday marked an escalation in Trump's efforts to "investigate the investigators," as he continues to try to undermine the findings of special counsel Robert S. Mueller III's probe amid mounting Democratic calls to bring impeachment proceedings against Trump.

    Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said in a statement that Trump is delegating to Barr the "full and complete authority" to declassify documents relating to the probe, which would ease his efforts to review the sensitive intelligence underpinnings of the investigation. Such a move could create fresh tensions within the FBI and other intelligence agencies, which have historically resisted such demands.

    Trump: "I don't do cover-ups,"

    “Instead of walking in happily into a meeting, I walk in to look at people that had just said that I was doing a cover-up,” Trump said at a hastily assembled news conference. “I don't do cover-ups.”
    "When government fears the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny."

    "I don't know why the Radical Left Democrats want Bob Mueller to testify when he just issued a 40 Million Dollar Report that states, loud & clear & for all to hear, No Collusion and No Obstruction (how do you Obstruct a NO crime?) Dems are just looking for trouble and a Do-Over!" Trump tweeted.

    Barr has disgraced his position and he is doubling down. He is a shameful partisan hack in an office that is supposed to the American Atty. He is a Trumpy from top to bottom. There is nothing beyond him.
    Trump does not do cover-ups? He hired Cohen in a full-time position to do exactly that, He wrote the checks to silence the strippers and bunnies he mushroomed. He paid off Trump "college". It is hard to type college for that scam. He lied when he said he never settles suits, He does it a lot.

    I wouldn't be celebrating too much, just think of the precedent that is being set here, what happens when the next Democrat President gives his Judicial Dept carte blanche to actively "investigate" anything he doesn't like? The GOP set umpteen precedents in the last ten years with using Congress's oversight powers and we see today what happens when the tables turn

    Secondly, why is it necessary, currently aren't there three active investigations into the same thing? Again, setting more precedent

    Third, don't fool yourself, Barr is going to cherry pick from the previously classified information to plant innuendos for 2020, but as soon as he does the public cry will come out to see the rest of the material so that it can be put into context. The last thing Trump wants is all the Russian connections developed in the FISA applications to be released

    And lastly, so what? What is your wet dream, Comey and Mueller get indited for who knows what? In the end, it bears no relevance to today, nobody cares. Trump has been crying martyr for three years now, America recognizes it as his shtick, outside of the Fox universe it is nonevent

    So you are against the FBI and CIA having the ability to classify? Weird, we have always expected them to require some secrecy. Now Barr should make all those decisions.They have lots of operations going on. They now know, Barr has them at their mercy. This is a typical stupid Trump decision poorly thought out.
