Trump declassifies FISA warrant documents, Bruce Ohr interviews, text messages from Comey, McCabe, Strzok and Page
President Trump has ordered the immediate declassification of several documents relating to the 2016 FBI investigation of his campaign, White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders announced Monday evening.
“The President has directed the Office of the Director of National Intelligence and the Department of Justice (including the FBI) to provide for the immediate declassification of the following materials: 1. pages 10–12 and 17–34 of the June 2017 application to the FISA court in the matter of Carter W. Page; 2. all FBI reports of interviews with Bruce G. Ohr prepared in connection with the Russia investigation; and 3. all FBI reports of interviews prepared in connection with all Carter Page FISA applications,” White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said.
Sanders continued, “In addition, President Donald J. Trump has directed the Department of Justice (including the FBI) to publicly release all text messages relating to the Russia investigation, without redaction, of James Comey, Andrew McCabe, Peter Strzok, Lisa Page and Bruce Ohr.”
The long storied backstory of the FISA warrant ties documents at the highest levels of the FBI to the monitoring of the 2016 Trump campaign. Also in question by Trump and his base are the Ohr contacts with the debunked “Trump dossier” author Christopher Steele, along with his wife’s connections to Fusion GPS.
Trey Gowdy has stated that the FISA warrant would never have been granted the bogus report.
