I heard/read some big time news about it.

I know that it takes time. So I am not asking about jail, walks, or bombshells.

But this:

What has happened?
What needs to happen for the public to be in the know.....if there is anything to know?





I understand that Durham, Huber and Horowitz are doing their thing. But I thought the president chose on his own to declassify.

Is declas a separate thing or does it pivot on the three aforementioned men?

I thought it already happened and that documents were able to be viewed.

Yes, possible millions of documents take time but that there would be teams of readers finding some bombshells already.

The Declass is being reviewed/released through AG Barr.
Rumors has it that FBI Director Wray tried to prevent this being handled by Barr.

What exactly is being declassified?

Who uncovered the info? Multiple groups? Or is this just declassifying data from FISA?

No one publicly knows what the scope of the declass will be.

Barr has said it includes all intel, CIA,FBI,DNI,NSA,DOJ,State? to find where the whole "russia" thing started.

All the things they will declass first are to be reviewed by each agency to give a reason why they may want to have certain things declassed, then Barr will decide to redact or leave in.

A lot of data and a lot to review. But the fact that Barr weeks ago said he was meeting with the various heads means they have been at it for a while.

Most speculations I have read say within the next week we will start to see things come out. But no one knows if its tranches, a dump, or something in between.

I don't believe Barr was sent a metric ton of docs previously classified, he just has the ability to do so in the course of his investigation.

And since it's an ongoing investigation, we probably won't know the details until it ends or people are indicted. Or if someone leaks I guess.

The battle lines have been drawn. CIA, FBI, etc. are going to fight against all of this being revealed. There's more going on here than meets the eye.

Yes Wray. Here is a good explanation of what's going on as of yesterday. Fox News interview with Joe DiGenova. LINK 14:29 seconds.
