Schumer and Pelosi can join Maxine Waters, Christine Blowsy Ford, and a raving Antifa activist in calling for things, until they are blue in the face. They have no actual authority in this matter.

Showdown? In letter, Pelosi/Schumer/Schiff/Warner order intel agencies to ignore presidential order on declassification until consulting with Congres
Schumer and Pelosi can join Maxine Waters, Christine Blowsy Ford, and a raving Antifa activist in calling for things, until they are blue in the face. They have no actual authority in this matter.
..not.
The attempted coup continues...
Trump does have his man in charge of the DOJ and fibbers doesn’t he?..
They know when all the documents are out the nation will experience a red tidal wave never seen.
The Constitution is clear on this.
I would call it just a "crisis, not a "Constitutional crisis".
Brennan.
I laugh...thinking that kid is already through college. It’s been that many years since we’ve used that graphic.
Trump can quote Willie Brown in regards to the CA GOP legislators some years back: “Them white boys know I got ‘em.” :)
That is a coup. They are usurping Presidential power. This must be shut down NOW>
Wow. Their level of desperation has reached maximum overdrive with this one.
“I agree. This sounds illegal to even suggest to agencies to disobey a Presidential order. They should be going to jail.”
Hopefully someone at the White House remembers the PATCO (air traffic controllers) strike under Reagan. Fire them ALL!
When is it okay to ignore a directive from POTUS? Never. Release the record now!
This was the exact question I heard my Grandfather ask my Dad in 1947...
My Dad asked me the very same question in 1968...
I asked all my Grandchildren the same question in 2009...They are well-armed and preparing...
It looks like we need to separate from the DemonRats like the Israelis separate themselves from the Palestinians. We can no long live in the same nation as these demonic freaks.
“They want a meeting with the ‘Gang of Eight’ ... won’t they have to dig up McCain ???”
Only for a “Keating Five” reunion.
This “Gang of Eight” are the minimum set of people that the Intel Community (IC) must notify, if they have something really secret, but are legally required to notify Congress (to minimize leaks). Rather than telling their full oversight committees in the House and Senate, they can just tell the (IC) “Gang of Eight”:
-Senate Majority and Minority Leaders
-Speaker of the House, and the Minority Leader of the House
-Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman and Ranking Minority Member
-House Intelligence Committee Chairman and Ranking Minority Member
Four Republicans, and four Democrats, make up the (Intelligence) Gang of Eight, at any given time. Only the four Democrats signed this letter. It represents their individual opinions, and does not carry the authority of any congressional committee. It is just four legislators trying to “punch above their weight”, and get more deference than they have actual authority.
President Trump would still be legally justified in firing anyone who refuses to comply with his legitimate orders, in response to requests from the legitimate Congressional Committee authorities (who formally requested what the President is directing be provided).
Pelomi, Schumer, Schiff, Warner, et al. can all go collectively gobble a giant sack of dicks.
As if he were a banana republic general, Brennan used military and Intelligence Community assets in furtherance of election fraud and in support of the chapter of the on-going coup seen above.
