Trump gives AG Barr authority to declassify documents related to 2016 campaign surveillance
President Trump on Thursday night issued a memo giving Attorney General William Barr the authority to declassify any documents related to surveillance of the Trump campaign in 2016.
Trump also ordered the intelligence community to cooperate with Barr. The memo read: "The heads of elements of the intelligence community... and the heads of each department or agency that includes an element of the intelligence community shall promptly provide such assistance and information as the Attorney General may request in connection with that review."
"Today, at the request and recommendation of the Attorney General of the United States, President Donald J. Trump directed the intelligence community to quickly and fully cooperate with the Attorney General’s investigation into surveillance activities during the 2016 Presidential election," White House press secretary Sarah Sanders said in a statement.
"The Attorney General has also been delegated full and complete authority to declassify information pertaining to this investigation, in accordance with the long-established standards for handling classified information. Today’s action will help ensure that all Americans learn the truth about the events that occurred, and the actions that were taken, during the last Presidential election and will restore confidence in our public institutions."

Translation: Trump is thrashing about like a wounded animal hoping to bury legitimate investigations under hatchet jobs. Don't worry, we'll see how this plays out and I look forward to asking about 'Obamagate' in 2021 when the current failure is finally fitted for the orange jumpsuit he so deserves.

The idea that some white night is going to come, get to the truth and that the Clintons and Obama are going to be locked up is as much wishful thinking as Mueller was going to get to the truth and save us from Trump
Trump has to lose the 2020 election first for that to happen.

Indeed. I'm sure he won't have a public meltdown before then, 100% certain.

So the CIA, FBI, and Democratic National Committee conspire with a foreign agent to overturn an American election — is it really surprising that the foreign agent is now refusing to talk to U.S. investigators? And the next level will be: was the U.K. government also involved in the conspiracy to overturn a U.S. election?
British ex-spy will not talk to U.S. prosecutor examining Trump probe origins: source
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The former British spy who produced a dossier describing alleged links between Donald Trump and Russia will not cooperate with a prosecutor assigned by U.S. Attorney General William Barr to review how the investigations of Trump and his 2016 election campaign began, a source with knowledge of the situation said.
Christopher Steele, a former Russia expert for the British spy agency MI6, will not answer questions from prosecutor John Durham, named by Barr to examine the origins of the investigations into Trump and his campaign team, said the source close to Steele’s London-based private investigation firm, Orbis Business Intelligence.
Trump has given Barr broad authority to declassify intelligence materials related to the investigations. Last week Trump ordered the heads of U.S. spy and law enforcement agencies to cooperate with Durham.
Steele, who had previously collaborated with the FBI on issues such as corruption in the global soccer organization FIFA, was hired in 2016 by Fusion GPS, a Washington-based private investigations firm working for lawyers representing the Democratic Party and Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign.

TL;DR version:
Steele refuses to cooperate with the Trumpkin's attempt at a cover-up.

Nope. The intelligence agencies get away with anything they want and liberals bow before them.

I see your opinions are as credible as ever.

The exposure of the largest government corruption scandal in American history is really just beginning.
Why The IG Report On FISA Abuse Will Unleash Barr’s Investigation Of Spygate
The closing of the final inspector general investigation into the Russia collusion investigation promises to open the flood gates for previously undisclosed information and indictments.
The forthcoming report from the Office of Inspector General on potential Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act abuse will finally unleash Attorney General William Barr, and when it does, watch out.
For the last month, conservative pundits have predicted the ever-imminent dropping of Inspector General Michael Horowitz’s report on his investigation into the circumstances surrounding FISA surveillance of former Trump campaign advisor Carter Page. Horowitz’s report will likely provide new and damaging details surrounding the FBI’s use of the FISA court to spy on Page. More importantly, the conclusion of Horowitz’s probe frees Barr to conduct a broader and more exacting investigation into all aspects of the Russia collusion hoax.

This report sounds like the Mueller report in that people should not be putting faith in the idea that it will reveal an undeniable truth and finally put the bad people in jail where they belong.

I'm sure we'll see this notion substantiated over the next few weeks, just like everything else you've claimed has come to pass.

The coordinated cover-ups of the Obama era are gradually being uncovered.
State Department identifies 23 violations, 'multiple security incidents' concerning Clinton emails
State Department confirms multiple security incidents involving Clinton email investigation
Fifteen individuals are believed to have mishandled classified information.
The State Department revealed Monday that it has identified "multiple security incidents" involving current or former employees' handling of Hillary Clinton's emails, and that 23 "violations" and seven "infractions" have been issued as part of the department's ongoing investigation.
The information came in a letter to Iowa Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley, who is responsible for overseeing the security review.
"To this point, the Department has assessed culpability to 15 individuals, some of whom were culpable in multiple security incidents," Mary Elizabeth Taylor, the State Department's Assistant Secretary in the Bureau of Legislative Affairs, wrote to Grassley. "DS has issued 23 violations and 7 infractions incidents. ... This number will likely change as the review progresses."
