Citing national security concerns, Trump says he won't declassify Democratic memo on Russia probe, asks for revisions

Friday, February 9, 2018
Trump said he will not declassify a Democratic memo on the Russia probe. In his denial, he cites national security concerns and has asked for revisions.

Democrats say their memo counters GOP allegations that the FBI abused U.S. Government surveillance powers in its Russia probe.

Trump declassified the GOP-authored memo over the objections of the FBI, which said it had "grave concerns" about the document's accuracy.
