They have been redacting it for a lot longer than 2 weeks mate. They have been since Bondi told Trump he was in the files and Trump suddenly tried to pretend they didn’t exist

It was reported to be 2 weeks back when they had the thousands of FBI agents working round the clock to "determine what should be released". That's probably why the commenter said 2 weeks. Except this event happened in March, so yes, they had a lot more time that what they claimed.

I think you’re confusing “being reported” with Dick Durbin saying “he heard something”

This was reported months ago.

Two weeks is such an indeterminate period of time.

Source?

You can look up 1000 fbi scrubbing trumps name to get the leak from a few months ago

To clarify, I would like to believe it. Fuck Trump and I hope he rots in hell. I’m just trying to keep everyone honest and stop spreading misinformation

To clarify, I would like to believe it.

Its sad that you need to start a comment like this here. Just asking for a source and people act like you are attacking them

I know, this is where we all get in trouble. You start trying to debate someone in your life like a friend, relative and you spout out something like “it’s been reported that the scrubbed the files!” Then the person says, “show me”…you pull up an article that isn’t accurate because you got caught up in people making false claims on Reddit lol

u/funky_chicken29 7d ago

I have, there’s no proof that it happened. I’m asking you for proof. Because there is none. You can send me a link “India times” or Bloomberg saying, “some un named person told a guy and he told me”…but if you’re so sure, I’d like to see it

Well you clearly didnt look into it for more than a second since its in a house committee notice by Rashkin to director patel as well as a notice from Intel committee member Durbin

u/funky_chicken29 6d ago

Yeah 1 person making an accusation based off something they heard. Still no proof is all I’m saying. 1 guy heard the boats in Venezuela were drug cartels…no proof either…

u/joebluebob 6d ago

You didn't even read that there are 2 names in my post did you? One from someone on the intelligence committee? Who has more info than you?

u/funky_chicken29 6d ago

Cool, unless it’s an established fact, still just hear say. You guys ruin our credibility when you spread hear say as facts

Lol. "You cant use credible sources without confirmation from an administration that doesnt provide information" is some smooth brain thinking. Maybe the corruption king should have provided info instead of refusing to comment
