DOJ investigating Kash Patel for leaking? AG Barr blocked declass of SpyGate docs

The Washington Post has a lengthy hit-piece against Kash Patel where they infer unsourced claims the DOJ is investigating the former Nunes aide and Trump administration official for releasing classified information.
Keep in mind that President Trump granted full declassification authority to AG Bill Barr on May 23, 2019. I would draw your attention to these two paragraphs buried deep in the reporting (emphasis mine):
(WaPo) […] The battle against the deep state continued, meanwhile. Patel kept pushing, along with DNI Ratcliffe, for declassification of memos challenging the origins of the Russia investigation. Nakasone [NSA Director] strongly dissented, and Esper [Sec of Defense] backed him up in an October letter to Ratcliffe “urging that the information not be released due to the harm it would do to national security, including specific harm to the military,” a senior defense official said. Haspel [CIA Director], too, strongly opposed release of the information. Their argument for protecting sensitive information was finally supported by Attorney General William P. Barr, and Trump backed away, a source close to the events said.
“I think there were people within the IC [Intelligence Community], at the heads of certain intelligence agencies, who did not want their tradecraft called out, even though it was during a former administration, because it doesn’t look good on the agency itself,” Patel said in the RealClearInvestigations interview.
It is tradition the NSA and CIA run to the Washington Post when they need a media PR firm to push their position. So this article makes sense considering the NSA and CIA both had something to hide within the criminal activity behind Spygate. [Maybe the timing has to do with recent information about the Durham probe.]
Regardless of what has initiated the need for the intelligence apparatus to turn attention toward Kash Patel I think we all understand exactly what is described inside the paragraphs; the stuff the IC couldn’t deal with…. the institutional damage they feared….. and ultimately the reason Bondo Barr went along with their need to keep it all hidden.

yeah, the very article in WaPo is them leaking whatever they want whenever they want, but let's go after Nunes right hand man...
also: it sadly makes sense that Bagpipe Barr blocked for the swamp. it is so damned infuriating.

They are breaking the law. That’s an abuse of classification.
The law specifically states classification cannot be used to prevent the release of information that may appear damaging to a person or agency.
Simply put, It can’t be used to cover up shite.

It’s amazing how the current pos administration has no leaks, were are the spying FBI guys in the White House. Almost like this shite is all planned. I knew BB was deep state from the start, 35 years in Washington and friends with Bob m.

Man I hope Trump/Desantis/etc are focusing heavily on their lists of people they can trust to bring in. Thats what hurt Trump from the start. Which isn't surprising since he was a DC newb, and I think he truly didn't expect it to be as swampy as it is and thought he could win people over. Which he obviously helped open many eyes more too.

From that baseline it becomes an exercise in intellectual honesty to see the bigger picture.
The entire system was united against the ‘outsider’ that Trump represented. Every action taken by Rosenstein, Barr, Wray, Bowditch, Boente, Horowitz and the special counsel team itself was done purposefully, because they knew the Mueller/Weissmann objective was to cover-up all of the unlawful schemes previously used against Trump.
Generally people accept that Mueller Inc was in place to target Trump. However, the lesser admitted reality is that Mueller was in place to cover for the branches, agencies and institutions that were part of the originating targeting.
All leaks to the media, by any entity – including the special counsel, were purposeful with this goal in mind. All information released was done purposefully with this goal in mind. All action taken by those in support of the Mueller unit were taken with full knowledge of what that second goal and intent was.
No-one was ever unaware of the purpose of Robert Mueller.
Everyone knew.
That list of everyone includes: Bill Barr, Rod Rosenstein, James Comey, Andrew McCabe, Lindsey Graham, Ron Johnson, Chuck Grassley, Peter Strzok, Lisa Page, Susan Rice, Sally Yates, Loretta Lynch, Mitch McConnell, every member of the Senate intel committee; every member of the House intel committee… and yes, including John Durham and every member of every DOJ office everywhere.
The legislative branch knew. The judicial branch knew. The executive branch knew. The FISA court knew… All of the insiders knew the Mueller probe was one big vacuum to suck up all of the evidence that would have exposed a corrupt system to We The People.
They did all of this because the scale of the originating scandal was so severe it would be almost impossible for our nation to cope with the consequences. That fearful knowledge is also what’s behind the reality we are currently seeing with thousands of National Guard troops guarding Washington DC…. just in case. Another systemic contingency.

Yep. I hope whoever comes in office, takes the top senior layer, off the federal government and replaces it with their people. I also hope they dismantle public unions.
How was the postal union allowed to endorse and support one candidate while handing mail-in ballots for the election?

He stood his ground against lockdowns, isn’t afraid to take on the media, has embraced Trump who also embraced him.
So far, so good.

Let's take this...
Then the way they say Trump 'backed away'.
Trump didn't 'back away' but what could he have done when they used the guise of military trade secrets national defense? They are so dirty in overall institutional corruption, it makes Waco & Ruby Ridge look like childs play.

Agreed. I trust no one anymore, sorry. 
They are all in on it and I truly fear DeSantis will turn out to be a Jeb! neocon. But yeah so far, so good.
