WAITING TO BE RIGHT part 1/2
Anyone wondering why Swalwell, Schiff and others are very vocal about releasing the Flynn/Kislyak phone call transcript?
I’ve said for 3 years yrs the Flynn phone call leak is being investigated by the DOJ.
I'm going to be proven right and here's why.
The DOJ did NOT
-
Announce the beginning of that investigation in 2017
-
Did not announce which US Attorney is running it
-
They CERTAINLY did not and will never provide updates about an investigation they won't even acknowledge is underway.
Everybody is ASSUMING FBI Director Christopher Wray could hand over this transcript whenever he wants to.
Well what if there's a legitimate reason he hasn't been able do that?
Under what scenario would the DOJ and the Attorney General be forbidding Wray to declassify this transcript & publicly release it that doesn’t involve a massive cover-up by Trump appointees?
This may surprise and shock you….and a lot of the political pundits, reporters and commentators out there who've been relentlessly dragging Wray for months….
But I actually CAN present you with a legitimate reason Wray is not allowed to hand this over just yet.
I’m going to encourage everybody who knows how investigations with serious national security issues in play are handled at the Sessions and now the Barr Justice Departments THINK REALLY HARD about that question I just asked. .
Here's the question again:
Under what scenario would the DOJ and the Attorney General be forbidding Wray to declassify this transcript & publicly release it that doesn’t involve a massive cover-up by Trump appointees?
Bake your noodle with it.
Here's the scenario:
IF the Flynn phone call leaked to Ignatius is the subject of a criminal disclosure of classified information investigation at the DOJ, that means that transcript is material evidence in an ongoing criminal case.
Because it would be material evidence in an ongoing criminal leak case, that means Wray couldn't declassify the transcript and give it to you, me, Jim Jordan or Tom Fitton even if he wanted to do that.
The laws concerning handling of classified information prevents him.
Remember when people had fantasies about Trump doing the SpyGate declassification all at once, like he'd call some freaking press conference and gleefully point to a bunch of binders stacked on a table and say "There it is, publicize it media!"
That's not what's happening.
Trump delegated declassification authority to Attorney General William Barr.
Remember?
Think about what that means.
So people are confused about WHO'S doing the SpyGate declassification & they're confused about HOW it would be done.
It's not happening all at once. They are rolling it out S-L-O-W-L-Y. One key piece of documentary evidence at a time.
When the time is right.
When BARR was good and ready, and he got the go ahead from Durham that releasing it now wouldn't compromise any of the ongoing SpyGate investigations, he sent USA EDMO Jensen into the DC US Attorney's office to find the documents they knew he was going to find there.
Then after Jensen gave the documents to Barr, Barr declassified them and approved their being handed over by Jensen to Flynn defense attorney
Sidney Powell
.
This was followed by
Richard Grenell
declassifying the unmasking list.
