Gregg Jarrett: If Rod Rosenstein defies Trump's order to declassify documents, he should be fired
Fox News ^ | 09/19/18 | Gregg Jarret

Posted on 09/19/2018 11:37:47 AM PDT by JonnyFive

President Trump has ordered that numerous documents involving the Russia investigation be declassified. The records have long been sought by Congress under lawful subpoenas. Yet, the FBI and Department of Justice have consistently obstructed the release of these materials under the guise of “classified” secrets. This is a convenient alibi all too frequently employed to cover-up wrongdoing and abuse of authority by those we entrust to uphold the law.

These days, overzealous government officials automatically designate nearly all matters as national security risks, regardless of whether they truly are.

Whenever the FBI orders Chinese take-out, it is labeled “top secret” because… you know… it involves the Chinese. False classification has reached absurd proportions.

You know he is going to stall.
What’s in those documents implicates him.

He does seem to be the nexus of most of this.

Maybe Rod is...but the master puppeteer behind all of this is Brennan.

Trump seems oddly reluctant to fire people. A couple of key firings can send a powerful message to an organization. Just saying.

If any when any documents are released they will be done late on a Friday night, or over the weekends.

Brennan has no power, no job, not even secret clearance. He may have started the wheels turning, but only Rosestein has the power now to call shots. Especially with Sessions hiding under the bed called recusal.

Trump has every legal right to declassify whatever he sees important for America’s security and integrity. But the criminals are still trying to protect the criminals....Trump should fire every one that defies his legal orders.

There is strategy here....the sharks are eating themselves.

Sessions has been in the fetal position since he became AG. The man is practically invisible.

Releasing these documents is huge. That’s why Demoncrats are panicing! Will take out RR, then Mueller.

Agree. He may be relying on the DNI to supervise the timely release of the documents. That too, could be a mistake.

There is no reason by now why most of it cannot be released for everyone to see.

This will be a test of Trump’s resolve and command. We’ll soon see.

"Has anyone found Sessions and told him what’s going on?"

Sessions was last seen a month ago at a truck stop on I-40, getting gas. He was driving a silver '05 Ram pickup, with DC plates...

I think Trump expects sessions to do it as rosenwiesel is his direct report.

If Trump fires Rosenstein/Mueller/Sessions prematurely, he will surely be charged for obstruction to justice by the swamp at DOJ. Trump is playing it right...let Mueller spin his wheels and find nothing on Russia collusion. Next step, declassify docs responsible for the phony FISA war rents. Let the light shine for all to see. After that the next steps will fall in place.

Open an FBI office in Antarctica. Staff appropriately.
