President Trump should ignore all the impotent sound of fury from Democrats and just start declassifying everything
It’s Trump’s Last Chance to Declassify These Secrets of the Russia Collusion Dud
President Trump’s last days in office offer a final opportunity to declassify critical information on the Russia investigation that engulfed his lone term.
Already voluminous public records – including investigative reports from Special Counsel Robert Mueller, Congress and the Justice Department’s inspector general – have established that Trump and his associates were targeted with a baseless Russian collusion allegation. The fraudulent claim originated with the Hillary Clinton campaign, was fueled by a torrent of false or deceptive intelligence leaks, and was improperly investigated by the FBI, potentially to the point of being criminal. Despite these disclosures, key questions remain about the origins and the spread of the conspiracy theory. And with a Biden administration set to take office and Democrats taking control of both chambers of Congress, there are no guarantees that the ongoing probe of Special Counsel John Durham will fill in the remaining gaps.
Both the CIA and FBI have been slow to produce much material that Trump reportedly wants declassified. They argue that disclosure would reveal sources and methods vital to national security. Such claims arouse skepticism because they have been used in the past to cover up malfeasance – as the public learned when deceptive FISA warrant applications used to spy on Trump campaign adviser Carter Page were finally released.
Before he leaves office on Jan. 20, Trump could use his declassification authority to help clear up some of the following critical issues of the Russiagate saga:
It’s a very long piece, which delves into
- What Did the Feds Really Know About Joseph Mifsud?
- What About John Brennan’s Kremlin Mole?
- Did Mueller Rely on Steele More Than He Let On?
- What’s the Evidence for the Russian Hacking Allegation?
- Was Guccifer 2.0 Really With Russian Intelligence?
- and Other Loose Ends
It’s well worth the read. Democrats ran on this crazy since, really, even before Trump won election in 2016, and never gave up on it. It’s time to declassify it.
And, while he’s at it, declassify all the information on UFOs. And, heck, Hillary’s server. And other stuff. Perhaps it’s long past time to expose the secrets of the federal government. Not actual national security material, mind you, but stuff that shows just how shady the people in power are.
And UFOs.
