It’s ALL about the Spygate documents.
It’s all about Crossfire Hurricane and the Deep State’s targeting of Trump.
The multi-agency spy operation was spearheaded by Peter Strzok, Andrew McCabe, Brennan, Clapper and others on behalf of Hillary Clinton.
President Trump on Thursday shared his “Memorandum on Declassification of Certain Materials Related to the FBI’s Crossfire Hurricane Investigation” to his Truth Social page:
MEMORANDUM FOR THE ATTORNEY GENERAL THE DIRECTOR OF NATIONAL INTELLIGENCE THE DIRECTOR OF THE CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE AGENCY
SUBJECT: Declassification of Certain Materials Related to the FBI’s Crossfire Hurricane Investigation

The more interesting thing is that Biden (or someone) COULD have re-classified them. Now that’s what I’ve read...but cannot confirm from a legal source.
I knew he had to have it. We all knew he did it at the time he declassified it. There were articles and news clips about it.
Now he needs to publish the docs
The power of classification of documents can be authorized for a number of described reasons. One reason happens to be if the subject information could prove to be embarrassing to the government itself. Really. I’m not joking. If the government engages in conduct illegal or covers it up, that information can be deemed classified and kept from the public and even in court proceedings for “National Security” reasons. (Makes them look bad)
He should have published them as soon as he declassified them. I suppose he was waiting until he ran for president.
This isn’t about documents folks. It’s J6.
They want to make the midterms about Trump. We need to keep the focus on inflation, the border, runaway spending.
I don’t think they are in panic. They are cornered animals who are going to lash out and fake whatever needs to be fake to indict Trump. Unfortunately you’ve got all these crooked law communist law enforcement people that are willing to do the FBI and the DOJ bidding. One of Trump’s female lawyer can’t remember her name, on Newsmax said that the swamp’s intentions is to indict him and that it might look that way. She said something to that effect ...I didn’t catch It all only her last statement. She did not look optimistic. I don’t know if it was because she was ticked off or very concerned. By her saying that brought shivers down my spine. I don’t know what else we can do but short of just get on our knees and I’m serious get on our knees and plead for God Almighty to intervene in this situation because I think this time these evil pos will stop at nothing! Even if they have to literally lie in the faces of the people. They’re itching to have him in handcuffs for the sake of the optics to humiliate him! And after they drag him in front of a judge handcuffed they’re coming for Eric and don next. Don’t laugh because they will do it. My God these people are so evil so incredibly evil.
Silly. The Bureaucrats determine what is classified and what isn’t. Trump was just the president.
Not legally.
28 CFR § 17.22 Classification of information; limitations.The "information that has been declassified and released to the public under proper authority may not be reclassified" may be the tricky bit for President Trump. Everyone involved slow-walked the declassification and release of Crossfire Hurricane in hopes that Biden would reclassify it before it was publicly released. Lesson learned: once you declassify it release it immediately and don't wait for your enemies to do their job.(a) Information may be originally classified only if all of the following standards are met:
(1) The information is owned by, produced by or for, or is under the control of the United States Government;
(2) The information falls within one or more of the categories of information specified in section 1.5 of Executive Order 12958; and
(3) The classifying official determines that the unauthorized disclosure of the information reasonably could be expected to result in damage to the national security and such official is able to identify or describe the damage.(b) Information may be classified as Top Secret, Secret, or Confidential according to the standards established in section 1.3 of Executive Order 12958. No other terms shall be used to identify United States classified national security information except as otherwise provided by statute.
(c) Information shall not be classified if there is significant doubt about the need to classify the information. If there is significant doubt about the appropriate level of classification with respect to information that is being classified, it shall be classified at the lower classification of the levels considered.
(d) Information shall not be classified in order to conceal inefficiency, violations of law, or administrative error; to prevent embarrassment to a person, organization, or agency; to restrain competition; or to prevent or delay release of information that does not require protection in the interest of national security. Information that has been declassified and released to the public under proper authority may not be reclassified.
(e) Information that has not previously been disclosed to the public under proper authority may be classified or reclassified after the Department has received a request for it under the Freedom of Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552), the Privacy Act of 1974 (5 U.S.C. 552a), or the mandatory review provisions of § 17.31. When it is necessary to classify or reclassify such information, it shall be forwarded to the Department Security Officer and classified or reclassified only at the direction of the Attorney General, the Deputy Attorney General, or the Assistant Attorney General for Administration.
(f) Compilations of items of information that are individually unclassified may be classified if the compiled information reveals an additional association or relationship that meets the standards for classification under Executive Order 12958 and that is not otherwise revealed in the individual items of information.
Wow....wow...wow!
Thats what I’m wondering why not just publish and be done? No way they could be reclassified afterwards.
This is the first thing I’ve heard that even remotely gives the fib a half of a lame asses reason...
Kinda like
Double secret probation
Don’t you see the beauty of Barr’s sleight of hand. He hands this “investigation” of CrossFire Hurricane off to one of his stooges, Durham. Durham fiddle farts around doing nothing, playacting as if he’s catching minnows. This ongoing bogus investigation keeps any witnesses or documents from being made public. Once again, it’s the “ongoing investigation” dodge we’ve seen before. Trump is blocked from defending himself under penalty of a felony for releasing the evidence. Evidence Barr and Durham have forever destroyed. This is preplanned on Barr’s end.
Ho, hum let’s just see how this all plays out.
(3) The classifying official determines that the unauthorized disclosure of the information reasonably could be expected to result in damage to the national security......
So the rest is meaningless. .
The power of classification of documents can be authorized for a number of described reasons.

Sounds like the same logic the government uses to classify “Malinformation” as terrorism. “Malinformation” being defined by Homeland Security as true information but “harmful “ to the government.
Release of Crossfire Hurricane documents could damage national security in their minds. When actually the opposite is more the facts. But their deeds prove they will take that national security claim to the very ends of Hell with them in their desperate actions.
