Huh. Democrats Really Don't Want Those Carter Page FISA Docs Released
2018-09-21
[Hot Air] When the President made the decision to order the declassification and release of various documents from the Russia, Russia, Russia investigation, there was an immediate uproar.

The documents to be declassified included one section of the initial 2017 FISA application against Carter Page, as well as some of the FBI’s notes taken during interviews with Page and Bruce Ohr, having mostly to do with the Steele dossier. The strange aspect of the protests was the fact that they all seemed to be coming from one side of the aisle. Now, the most senior Democrats in Congress are trying to slam the brakes on the process by asking the Justice Department and the FBI to provide an "immediate briefing" to the Gang of Eight.

#5  Sessions was an early and effective Trump supporter during the 2016 primaries and in the general election. His appointment to the AG post was certainly a reward for his loyalty. Now it seems it would have been a whole lot better if he had stayed in the Senate, especially after the Judge Roy Moore fiasco and Alabama's election of a Democrat to take the Senate seat formerly held by Sessions.

#4  These two years could've been spent investigating Clinton Foundation and Obama's regime more egregious crimes. Instead they're spent by POTUS having to defend himself from accusations that everyone knows are bullshit.

#3  Trump chose Sessions so the deep state could spend two years investing in the AG's incompetence. Next January will be a hoot.

#2  Why the hell Trump, who's usually so astute, chose Sessions? Did he fail to anticipate how far the Establishment will be willing to go?

#1  Of course they don't want any additional info on Carter Page revealed. He was the designated decoy. After he departed the Trump campaign, all interest in Page immediately dropped, almost as if it never existed.
