John Solomon: Trump can change history by declassifying three Obama-era documents

My sources tell me President Trump is putting the finishing touches on a White House initiative to declassify documents that have remained hidden from the public for far too long.
This welcome effort to provide more public transparency and accountability almost certainly will focus early on the failings of the now-debunked Russia collusion probe. And I’m sure it will spread quickly toward other high-profile issues, such as the government’s UFO files that have been a focus of clamoring for decades.
quote:
Sources who have seen these classified assessments tell me they debunk the last administration’s storyline that there were no national security reasons to oppose Rosatom’s Uranium One purchase or Vladimir Putin’s successful efforts to secure billions of dollars in new nuclear fuel contracts with American utilities during the Obama years.
“There were red flags raised, and the assessments expose other weaknesses in how CFIUS goes about these approval processes,” one knowledgeable source told me.
Under Obama, sensitive foreign acquisitions almost routinely were rubber-stamped by CFIUS, and the approval process sometimes was delegated by Cabinet officials on the CFIUS committee to lower-ranking aides.
Clinton, for example, claims she allowed a deputy to decide the Uranium One purchase, even as her family foundation collected millions in donations from parties interested in the transaction and her husband, former President Bill Clinton, collected a $500,000 speech fee from Moscow.
quote:So Trump does have a trump card. I know we are tired of hearing news and :kerns: and then nothing happens. But this could be big.
My sources tell me that letter conflicts with what the Obama administration was telling the American public as it tried to sell the deal politically, and it shows a level of courtship, concession and trust with Tehran that exceeded the U.S. intelligence assessments at the time.
For example, my sources tell me that Obama promised Iran it could have a “domestic enrichment capacity” and that Tehran could be restored to a nation “in good standing” under the world’s nuclear non-proliferation treaty, even though U.S intelligence had corroborated an extensive weapons program that violated that treaty for years.
The 2014 letter was preceded by at least three other private communications between Obama and officials in Tehran, including two in 2009 and one in 2012. All need to be declassified and released for Americans to better understand the merits of Obama’s approach with Iran.

Actually, some of us have hung in there the whole time.
But, you're right. Most have waffled and taken every conceivable side of the situation. No need to name names.

Obama and Hillary literally sell uranium to the Russians and yet the second Trump wins the Russian become the baddest of the bad guys.
The media and the Democratic party are traitors to this nation.

Nothing in that quoted block is big. Media will ignore and no one will care.
The only thing changing the current game we are in are handcuffs.

I’m totally with you 100% it’s time to put up or shut up. However releasing all of it now would be minimal damage. The media would keep it to just a weeks worth of headlines if that.
I say keep it till he knows Biden is the nominee next year and drop it. Once you get campaign mode trump there is nothing the media can hide because they’ll be 3 nationally televised debates trump can just pounce him on.

I agree but this exposes U1, The Iran deal and other things. Think about the black jesus, his entire admin & HRC committing treason. It is historic alright and they are too big to jail.
Trump indeed bluffs but look at the position he is in. He may lay it all out there.

You realize Solomon has reported hundreds of declassified documents already. He can’t make the MSM report on it.

That's a great gif.
Heaven knows, we've all been there.

Look:
in all seriousness, I am clearly pro-UFO declassification! ...
I have hopefully another 50 years left on this planet I would really like to know what else is out there.
I have always mentioned that I feel like I was born too late to explore the earth and too early to know about the stars!

You know that "got heem" shite people like to post when someone tries to attack Trump? It's the same way I feel about this never ending "lock her up! drain the swamp!" road to nowhere.
