I was watching the news this evening and some Senator was explaining that "yes" the President CAN do that.
But it's supposedly a complicated process. He can't just sign a paper and make it so. And the other problem would be that some of it might contain actual info that could reference national security (of course the govt. claims that EVERYTHING is a matter of "national security")
But yeah, I'd love to see ALL of it exposed and let the chips fall where they will.
I think the Democrat politicians and the news media stepped into a pile of dogshit on this.
For months the New York Times has ran stories that claimed it had sources that said Trump was wiretapped and that was how the stories of possible Russian involvement were discovered.
And according to the New York Times (who hate Trump), they got this information and sometimes actual transcripts (highly illegal) from "high placed intelligence sources".
In other words...for months now the media (including of course...CNN) have been breathlessly reporting that Trump and his associates WERE wiretapped and under surveillance.
They cooked Obama's goose themselves without meaning to.
And now that Trump turned the tables on them...they are falling all over themselves to DENY what they themselves were reporting 24/7
This would be funny...if it weren't such a sad indictment of the establishment in D.C. and the horrible news media bias.
