U.S. President Donald Trump has directed the U.S. intelligence community to 'quickly and fully co-operate' with Attorney General William Barr's investigation of the origins of the multi-year probe of whether his 2016 campaign colluded with Russia.

Last Updated Thursday, May 23, 2019 11:23PM EDT

Press secretary Sarah Sanders said in a statement that Trump is delegating to Barr the "full and complete authority" to declassify documents relating to the probe, which would ease his efforts to review the sensitive intelligence underpinnings of the investigation. Such a move could create fresh tensions within the FBI and other intelligence agencies, which have historically resisted such demands.

Wray vocally opposed the release by Congress last year of details from a secret surveillance warrant obtained by the bureau on a former campaign adviser, Carter Page. The White House had eagerly encouraged Republicans on the House intelligence committee to disclose that classified information, believing it could help undermine the Russia investigation.

Thursday's move further solidifies Barr's position in Trump's eyes as a legal warrior on fighting on his behalf.

Trudeau Credits Immigration For Canada's High-Tech SuccessImmigration and federal investment have allowed startups to flourish, the prime minister told a conference in Toronto. I would like to see the statistics that support this. I have no problem with planned and monitored immigration initiatives, however I don’t see the link between immigration and tech expertise. Bit of a stretch I’d say. Hmmmm. Trump is pretty clear he wants to follow Canada’s merit based immigration system. It leads to success as Trudeau mentions. These are the Harper type immigrants. Ones that will help Canada. Not PMJT's that live off our benifits and vote Liberal.
