Ratcliffe: We can’t declassify all of Russiagate’s secrets

(Worthy News) – Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe says he shared thousands of documents with U.S. Attorney John Durham and is counting on the now-special counsel to get the truth out to the public about what he views to be massive wrongdoing by those who conducted the Trump-Russia investigation. But, the spy chief stressed, that doesn’t mean all the documents given to the federal prosecutor should be declassified, as some Republicans, including President Trump, have discussed.

“Between my predecessor Richard Grenell in an acting capacity and myself, we have declassified most of the intelligence community documents that would be suitable for the public to see, that wouldn’t jeopardize sources and methods,” Ratcliffe said in a phone interview with the Washington Examiner on Thursday. “There are others, many many documents — I think it’s been out there that I’ve provided literally thousands of documents to John Durham, but many of those do contain sources and methods that we can’t make public for a number of reasons, including to jeopardize any investigation that’s going there. So I think the level of cooperation — I’ve given them everything that they’ve asked for.”

Republican allies of Trump had high expectations for Durham leading up to the election, and some even insisted there should be full transparency with mass declassifications of secrets they expected would be damning for the Obama administration and top intelligence and law enforcement officials in what has become known as the “Russiagate” controversy. In early October, it looked as though they got their wish. Trump tweeted a call for all of the Russia investigation documents to be made public. [ Source: Washington Examiner (Read More…) ]
