President Donald Trump said Friday that Justice Department and FBI officials have 'politicized' their investigations in order to help embattled Democrats.
Trump is expected to approve the release of a controversial classified memo later in the day that outlines alleged bias and wrongdoing by senior officials as they pressed their Russia probe forward.
'The top Leadership and Investigators of the FBI and the Justice Department have politicized the sacred investigative process in favor of Democrats and against Republicans – something which would have been unthinkable just a short time ago," Trump tweeted. 'Rank & File are great people!'
President Donald Trump tweeted Friday that the nation's top law enforcers have been biased against Republicans in their investigations
FBI Director Christopher Wray could quit his post on Friday after Trump declassifies and releases a controversial Republican congressional memo that reportedly outlines wrongdoing at the DOJ and FBI
Trump was sure to insist that the FBI's 'rank and file are great people,' even as he goes after the ledaership with his acid tongue
The memo, written by Republicans on the House Intelligence Committee, is expected to point fingers of blame at senior FBI officials who the White House says are biased against Trump.
Trump is expected to release it without any redactions.
The FBI said Wednesday in a stinging statement that it had 'grave concerns about material omissions of fact that fundamentally impact the memo’s accuracy.'
But Trump has been determined to green-light its public unveiling from the beginning, according to a presidential adviser who spoke to The Washington Post.
'There was never any hesitation,' the insider said.
'The president was resolved on this. He was not going to be persuaded [otherwise]. He wanted it out.'
FBI director Christopher Wray is dead-set against the memo's release, with some observers saying he might resign when it is mad public.
House Intelligence Committee chairman Devin Nunes, a California Republican, wrote the memo along with aides
Trump also tweeted a summary of the state of play from Judicial Watch president Tom Fitton
Trump also tweeted a quote from Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton, who appeared on 'Fox & Friends' on Friday morning.
'"You had Hillary Clinton and the Democratic Party try to hide the fact that they gave money to GPS Fusion to create a Dossier which was used by their allies in the Obama Administration to convince a Court misleadingly, by all accounts, to spy on the Trump Team." Tom Fitton, JW,' Trump wrote.
Fitton's contention is that the Justice Department used an unproven anti-Trump dossier paid for by the president's political opponents in order to apply for federal wiretap warrants targeting former Trump adviser Carter Page and others during the 2016 election season.
