Makes no sense. POTUS can declassified and release immediately.
It is NOT a regular classified document. It is Nunes conclusions of events.
The misinformation out there, even on FR, is frustrating. This is NOT true. The memo is a product of and owned by the House of Representatives. Congress is a separate branch of government and the Executive (president) has no control over any congressional work product and items owned by Congress.
Apparently there is some established process for releasing such congressional work product that includes a review by the Executive, but it occurs only after Congress sends an item to the Executive for review. The Executive cannot take unilateral, preemptive action.
No he cannot.
It’s a product of the House. That is a different arm of government. He cannot release something they produce.
This is civics 101.
