Trump just ordered the FBI docs to be released to the full committee instead of just to the Gang of Eight. Schiff, Wray and Rosenstein are mad.

quote:

WASHINGTON — The White House has rebuffed concerns among American intelligence and law enforcement officials and ordered that more lawmakers be given access to classified information about an informant the F.B.I. used in 2016 to investigate possible ties between the Trump campaign and Russia, according to two American officials with knowledge of the decision.

Both the director of national intelligence and the director of the F.B.I. tried to keep the classified documents tightly restricted, fearing that a broader dissemination of operational reports and other sensitive material could lead to more leaks of detailed information about the role of the confidential F.B.I. informant.

Some American officials believe, in fact, the reason the White House made the decision was to provide political ammunition to President Trump’s Republican allies who have argued — without any evidence — that the F.B.I. investigation was opened in July 2016 as an effort to keep Mr. Trump from becoming president.


There's that phrase "without evidence" again. Even though Strzok's own text messages PROVE exactly that this actually happened.

For months I've hoped for the chance to be the first one to DV one of your idiotic posts.

Tonight I can check that box.

If there's a terminal case of TDS you have it.

If Schiff is against this, it was the right thing to do.

In a letter to Mr. Coats on Thursday, Democratic members of the Gang of Eight protested the release of the documents, saying that it “contravenes your representation to us and our colleagues that this information would not be shared outside that group.”

“We believe your decision could put sources and methods at risk,” they added.




They are scared Halper's name will be outed. Oh, wait, wasn't it the WaPo and NYT who outed him in the first place? Please tell me, then, Schiff why the NYT can have the info but Congress can't?

EDIT: I should also note, this article only says he has authorized the Halper docs to be released to the committee, not necessarily ALL docs the Gang of Eight has.

But, it's a start.

Any chance the FBI actually turns over the documents?

Seriously.

Who in the flying blue frick is supposed to be privy to the meeting of two sovereigns, other than those who are able to effect their communication?

If someone has the privilege of being at such a meeting, they can easily 'leak' falsehoods that are meant to damage any kind of agreement in place. Who would be in a position to dispute them?
