Daniel Greenfield discusses the declassification of documents related to Russiagate and whether it will have any significant impact.
• Greenfield expresses skepticism about the value of declassifying historical documents, citing past experiences with JFK and similar cases, which yielded little of importance.
• He notes that even serious allegations, like those against MLK and JFK, received less public attention than trivial news stories.
• The emphasis is placed on the need for transparency concerning government misconduct, particularly regarding Russiagate, which he considers a major abuse of power.
• President Trump has signed an executive order to declassify many documents related to Crossfire Hurricane, potentially revealing new insights.
• There are doubts that these declassified documents will provide new or significant information, as many names and actions involved are already known.
• Greenfield believes that although the relevance of Russiagate is declining, exposing these documents could prevent similar abuses by those still in power.
Greenfield awaits the release of declassified documents with tempered expectations, believing it may serve as a warning against future government overreach despite the past events becoming less prominent in public discourse.
