Outgoing national intelligence chief Richard Grenell says he is in the process of declassifying some of the transcripts of phone calls between Michael Flynn and Russia's U.S. Ambassador in December 2016

Outgoing national intelligence chief Richard Grenell says he is in the process of declassifying some of the transcripts of phone calls between former national security adviser Michael Flynn and Russia's U.S. Ambassador Sergey Kislyak in December 2016.

Flynn allies have long argued that his identity was "unmasked" in those intercepts by politically motivated Obama allies, and Grenell fueled the furor further last week when heof former officials who had made requests for intelligence reports on calls between foreign officials in which Flynn was likely mentioned, or calls in which Flynn spoke to foreign officials under routine surveillance.

In fact, the calls were the subject of a Jan. 5, 2017 meeting in which President Barack Obama discussed with top national security aides whether Flynn’s calls had any bearing on whether they should share certain intelligence with the incoming Trump administration.

Typically, Americans captured on lawful foreign surveillance have their identities masked, but authorized national security officials are permitted to request unmasking of those intercepts if they submit justifications to the NSA, a process that has beenGrenell is days away from stepping down from his acting position following the Senate confirmation of Rep. John Ratcliffe to the post on Thursday.

Good the public deserves to see it.

Obamagate

I bet Trump jumps in (or one of his cronies) to stop the transcripts from coming out. He is good at doing that. He goes to great lengths to hide criminal activity.

“Some” of course, not all.

Why doesn't he just release the tapes in an unredacted format as we've paid tens of millions for this endless, mindless insanity. We should also sue the classification regime over their fake classification system.

Hit them with Choirboy’s own words.

Why? ? RichardGrenell would be disclosing national data gathering secrets...a criminal act. He could end up in Gitmo.

Ratcliffe to the rescue.

Excellent...make them public one way or another.

If there’s nothing to hide, declassify and prove it. Tired of this crap.

Again realDonaldTrump and his habit of selective truth (aka lies) So if there is Obamagate then let us see the call transcripts between traitor Flynn and the Russians. Since traitor Barr said we can’t see Mueller report🤷 What are you afraid of? TheJusticeDept GOP DNC

Some? You should declassify all of Flynn's phone calls with the Russia's US Ambassador, who was a member of the Russian intelligence.

Key word: “some”

We want them all RichardGrenell

“some” is the key. All or none

We will see.

Boring🤡🤡🤡

Some?

Some?

Some of the transcripts? We want them ALL. This selective declassification is an abuse of power.

Some, but not all. Right!

Non

Why not all? “The [intelligence community] doesn’t have all the transcripts/summaries,” Grenell tweeted Friday. “But I already started the declassification for the few we received. They should be released in full, though. The public deserves to see it. BTW, the new guy agrees.

Why announce this stuff and give chubby don and his band of crooks time to pull more illegal shit?

Now that's how you make an exit

Get ready. NothingCanStopWhatIsComing

As the door closes behind Grenell, the reclassification will be in place.

Nonsense. Stop playing stenographer. He will do nothing of the sort, and you will never call him out for lying to you. If it does release it, it will strategically redacted to help Flynn. You haven't learned a thing since 2016.

Why not all of them?

Watch out for the highly selective declassification.

Good

The ones he lied about, right? (Hahaha... Just kidding. He’s going to release the ones that show nothing.)

He won’t get the chance.

Some? Make it all!

Waiting for blacked out pages.

Tick tock liberals

Declassify all of them! This is bs!!!

Some? 😂😂😂why not all

ALL OF THEM!

Drip drip drip Obamagate

That should be interesting.

This guy looks like SS

Some transcripts? Declassify all of it.

They will, no doubt, be 'perfect'

Get ready for the imminent court order to block this.

Appeals court gives Flynn judge 10 days to respond on case dismissal legal tanglesA three-judge appeals court panel has ordered the trial judge overseeing former Trump national security adviser Michael Flynn's case to explain by June 1 what the court should do with Flynn's emergency request to force the dismissal of his case CNN what am I going to do with you guys? Flynn’s case should be dismissed. There was no reason to investigate him. Trump in 2001/2009 registered as Democrat, both Trump and Obama wanted to run against McCain in 2008. Obama was picked by Nancy and Chuck to run against McCain instead of Trump. Trump run as R in 2016. What? Courts should drop the case as the prosecution has. They are going rogue for personal views. Crazy.

Michael Flynn was never 'masked' in transcript of calls with Russian ambassador, reports sayPresident Trump and some Republican allies have pointed to the 'unmasking' of Michael Flynn as evidence of a campaign to undermine the administration. you do not get the nuances of what is going on, Maybe if you tried journalism you would realize how insidious and despicable the ObamaGate was this is the beginning. Grab some popcorn This is not a good thing, nor a good look for you to frame it this way. 'No derogatory evidence' and case closing 1/4/17 only to be forced back open 1/5 by Obama et al. followed by the Kislyak leak just days later. Yes it just one piece...
