Lindsey Graham claims the only ones against releasing Russia probe details 'are worried about being exposed'

President Trump has authorized Attorney General Bill Barr to declassify all materials related to the Russia investigation, and Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., is giving his full support.

Graham said that while Special Counsel Robert Mueller's investigation was "not a witch hunt" like Trump has claimed, he wants to know exactly how and why it began, and expressed suspicion for those who do not support Trump's decision to release the relevant documents.

"The people who are worried about this are worried about being exposed for taking the law in their own hands," Graham said on "Fox News Sunday."

Graham was referring to the process the FBI used in applying for a FISA warrant to monitor former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page. Republicans have claimed that the FBI improperly relied on and misrepresented information from Christopher Steele's unverified Russia dossier. Democrats have downplayed the role the dossier may have played in the process.

President Trump gave Barr the authority to declassify the relevant material in a memo Thursday night. A statement from White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders said the president "directed the intelligence community to quickly and fully cooperate with the attorney general’s investigation into surveillance activities during the 2016 presidential election."

Graham endorsed the release of "all the documents around the FISA warrant application," and the origins of the Russia investigation, which was initiated by the FBI before ultimately being turned over to Mueller. "I think transparency's good for the American people," he told host Chris Wallace.

Yeah..I hear dat

U.S. Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, blasted the move as an attempt to "weaponize law enforcement and classified information."

Kinda predictable though

Would be nice to see Trump really turn the table completely over on them.

They hypocrites won't stand for that. They wanted Donald Trump to accept the election results, one way or the other. But they wouldn't accept the results...they didn't expect.

They demand that Trump's returns are made public (this is not a law or a rule btw it is done as a courtesy), but asked to make theirs public? They'd refuse, of course.

The MSM is starting to wake up.

 

[Supersteeler]

You're only 3 years late there MSM. Welcome to the party *******! The only possible reason they are walking back their hoax bullshit all of a sudden is because they know the entire thing is getting ready to crumble like a house of cards and are trying to get out in front of it.

Mueller exploited cellphone GPS to track Trump associates

Robert Mueller says he was able to pinpoint security company executive Erik Prince’s precise location for several hours in January 2017 by matching his mobile phone signal to a cell site near Trump Tower in New York City.

The special counsel’s report discloses the use of this investigative technique, by which police determine a suspect’s location via a cellphone’s GPS signal.

The Prince narrative is one instance in unredacted sections of the report in which Mr. Mueller’s team explicitly discloses cellphone tracking. It raises the question of whether the FBI applied the process to other investigative subjects — a phone’s GPS signal can disclose its exact location within a few feet. One of the first requests the FBI makes when confronting subjects is to ask for their electronic devices.

The fact Mr. Mueller could pinpoint Mr. Prince’s exact whereabouts suggest he used GPS readouts, which prosecutors can subpoena from cellular service providers.

The Spygate plot thickens...


Developing: Obama and His Italian Friend Renzi Suspected of Spying on Trump and Using Italian State Secrecy Decree to Cover It Up

The recent firings of top Italian spies were likely related to Obama and a plot to set up candidate and President Trump in their Hillary email scandal. Now there are suspicions that Renzi’s Italians covered up their crimes by labeling them as “State Secrets” which would prevent them from being disclosed.

In May Italian Prime Minister Conte asked for the resignations of four top intelligence officials after his call with President Donald Trump.

So, how's that declass coming? Pretty much what I thought. Big old nothing-burger.

You just wait! It's coming.

Sounds eerily similar to something else I've heard the past couple years.

The swamp is full. As long as it is, Reps and Dems, nothing will be declassed. Too many calling for and against declassification will be cannon fodder.

Yep. They're all on the same team. Just more pie in the sky bullshit from DC.

And it's gonna stay full. In order to empty it, you have to expose them. The Democrat-Socialist party is on full display. And half of America is cheering for their own demise. Better dump them documents, because they aren't getting voted out.

According to Joe diGenova, John Durham will be releasing declassified documents this week, 'possibly tomorrow'. Though I'm in the crowd of 'I'll believe it when I see it', here's hoping we will be adding the actual released documents to this thread within the next 48 hours.

So did they release the information? I must have missed it.

The buzz going around late last week into the weekend was over the Papadopouls/Halper transcripts. Still a wait and see.

Former House Oversight Chairman Trey Gowdy claimed during in an interview on Sunday Morning Futures with Maria Bartiromo that secret transcripts of a discussion involving former Trump campaign adviser George Papadopoulos are an example of “textbook exculpatory information."

Gowdy also claimed that the potentially exonerating info was misleadingly concealed from the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court by the FBI, and that this is not the only mysterious transcript yet to be released.

Gowdy further said that the transcripts would show “what questions [the FBI] coached the informants or the cooperating witnesses to ask of the Trump campaign officials” and implied that the questions would show that the FBI had been targeting the Trump campaign rather than simply attempting to combat Russian election interference.

Overstock CEO Turned Over Docs To DOJ ‘on FBI’s Russian and Hillary Clinton Probes’

By Sara Carter August 12, 2019

Overstock CEO Patrick Byrne delivered to the Department of Justice a number of documents, including emails and text messages, in April, regarding both the origins of the Russian investigation, and an FBI operation into Hillary Clinton with which he was personally involved during the first months of 2016, according to a U.S. official who spoke SaraACarter.com. Byrne has also confirmed the account.

Byrne claims the documents, which have not been made public and are currently under investigation by the DOJ, are allegedly communications he had with the FBI concerning both the Clinton investigation and the origins of the Russian investigation. SaraACarter.com did not review the documents, which are now under review by law enforcement.

He approached the DOJ and met with lawyers on April 5th and 30th. The first meeting was without counsel in Washington D.C. A source directly familiar with the interviews confirmed Byrne’s account of the meetings.

DOJ officials said they could not comment on Byrne’s allegations.
“I gave to the DOJ documents concerning both the origin of the Russian probe and the probe into Hillary Clinton, both of which I was involved in, and both of which turned out to be less about law enforcement than they were about political espionage,” Byrne told SaraACarter.com Monday. He noted that the communications will prove that the FBI also had an operation into Clinton Foundation that he was directly involved in.

THIS IS GOING TO BECOME THE GREATEST POLITICAL SCANDAL IN US HISTORY. IF WE SURVIVE IT, AND IF RULE OF LAW RETURNS TO AMERICA, IT WILL BE DUE TO ONE MAN: BILL BARR, BYRNE SAID.

“This is going to become the greatest political scandal in US history,” he said. “If we survive it, and if Rule of Law returns to America, it will be due to one man: Bill Barr.”

Several weeks ago, FBI officials told SaraACarter.com that they declined to comment on Byrne’s allegations.

Byrne said the investigation into Clinton was one of the main reasons he came forward. This reporter first published Byrne’s story about his relationship with now convicted Russian gun right’s activist Maria Butina. She pleaded guilty in 2018 for failing to register as a foreign agent in the U.S. and is now serving out her sentence, which ends in October.

Byrne’s claims regarding the Clinton Foundation investigation are not without parallel. According to numerous officials the FBI had an ongoing investigation. Whistleblower and former government informant William Campbell was interviewed in 2018, by bureau agents from the Little Rock, Arkansa’s field office. According to Campbell, who first spoke to this reporter in 2017, he was asked by FBI agents whether donations to the Clintons charitable organization from Russia were used to influence U.S. nuclear policy during the Obama Administration. Specifically, he was asked about the sale of 20 percent of Uranium One.

As also reported in 2018, by John Solomon with The Hill, the “agents questioned him extensively about claims the Russians made to him that they had routed millions of dollars to an American lobbying firm in 2010 and 2011 with the expectation it would be used to help President Clinton’s charitable global initiative while major uranium decisions were pending before Hillary Clinton’s State Department.”

Byrne, told SaraACarter.com that the FBI was also investigating Clinton’s charitable organizations in the first half of 2016, and that he was directly involved in one of the operations being conducted by the FBI. He did not give details regarding the operation saying but said it directly dealt with Clinton and whether or not there was pay for play.

On Monday, Byrne appeared on Fox Business Network with David Asman, revealing his claims about the Clinton investigation.

“I ended up in the center of the Russian and the Clinton investigations,” said Byrne. “I have all the answers. I have been sitting on them waiting for America to get there. Last summer I figured out… what they all are is all about political espionage. It had nothing to do with law enforcement, it was all political espionage. Here’s the bottom line. There is a deep state like a submarine lurking just beneath the waves of the periscope depth watching our shipping lanes. And a nuclear ice breaker called the USS Bill Barr has snuck up on them and is about to ram midship.”

“That’s about to happen and I think we’re about to see the biggest scandal in American history as a result. But it was all political. Everything you think you know about Russia and Clinton investigations is a lie,” Byrne told Atman. “It’s all a cover-up. It was all political espionage.”

Connecticut attorney John Durham, who has been appointed by Justice Department investigator Attorney General William Barr is probing the FBI’s handling of the investigation into Russia probe, and according to several sources is investigating the full extent of Byrne’s claims and the documentation he provided in April.

I wanted to post the gist of the article hamster, both because I'm a little confused why Overstock's CEO is involved in this, and because it could be a potential smoking gun. Strange days.

Inspector General report on FISA abuse done, and submitted. A McCabe indictment in the works. **** is getting real.

[Sarge]

Yawn. It will be so classified and redacted no one will be able to make heads or tails of it. And I doubt anything substantive happens to McCabe. I just have no faith in our government to do the right thing ever.
