BREAKING President Donald Trump and his intelligence chief have pushed for quick declassification - over IC objections - of a document disputing the 2017 intelligence community finding that Russia acted to help Trump get elected in 2016, say three U.S. government officials.

A letter from DNI Ratcliffe to the ICIG and reviewed by Reuters confirmed that Ratcliffe is seeking to declassify the document at the request of Devin Nunes, the top Republican on the House Intelligence Committee. By @Bing_Chris, Mark Hosenball and myself.

"I have requested that the document undergo a formal declassification review in response to a request" from Nunes, Ratcliffe wrote, noting that Republicans on the committee first requested that it be declassified in December 2018 when they controlled the House.

Ratcliffe and others had been pushing to have the intelligence declassified by Thursday night, one of the officials said. If successful, that would allow its release around the time that Trump and Democratic challenger Joe Biden square off in their final debate.

1. I thought Russia acknowledged they interfered.

[cry baby]

2. I smell desperation. nt

7. I smell continuing abuse of power.

This is ridiculous! Clearly for political purposes. Whether it is desperate or not, it makes a mockery of the professionals who are working to keep the country safe from interference by foreign powers. The man is just plain scum.

[cry baby]

9. Another case of abuse but no surprise that it happens.

Abuse of power has become so commonplace that it’s no big deal anymore. And this change has come about in just 4 short years.

Who knew democracy was so fragile?

3. They are doing every thing in their power

to avoid running a winning campaign, it seems.
What is this nonsense? Who gives a shit?
Go vote.

4. Has someone explain to Trump that he isn't running against Hillary Clinton this time?

[BusyBeingBest]

5. Between this and Bony Tobulinski, it's game over, man!

Don't even show up tonight, Joe Biden!!

6. Is there any more shit to throw at the wall?

I mean would these fake news people please stop talking about actual political issues that affect people's lives like covid relief and health care long enough to cover some of the bullshit we made up... PLEEEASE?

8. I could give a flying fuck

The 500 page Mueller report is THE definitive word on this along with the Senate IC report. They definitively show Russian collusion.
