This says doj/ garland refused. Can anyone refuse the sitting president declassification order? Garland wasn’t even the att gen on that day. But even if he was, nobody can refuse.
Especially if they are trying to cover up the coup/treason.
This is just another example of how the DS Adminstrative State tries to perpetuate the narrative that their judgment supersedes the President’s. Lt. Colonel Vindman said the quiet part out loud during the sham Impeachment 1.0 hearings.
He tried to claim he had the ultimate decision making authority over Ukraine policy and that President Trump had no right to disregard the talking points Vindmand had written for the call with Zelenskyy. I can’t remember who, but one of the Republicans pretty quickly shot him down.
So, President Trump looks to be maneuvering the DS into a double bind. If they adhere to his Declassify orders their dirty secrets are exposed. But, if they fight, they will still be exposed. The DS gambit has been hoping President Trump will succumb to the constant persecution and surrender.
I think what Vindmann meant but couldn’t say is that Trump, non-tribe, went against Vindmann, tribe, and that’s not how the authority structure of civilization is supposed to work.
