VietPress USA (Feb. 1st, 2018): The Republican Lawmakers on the House intelligence committee voted on Jan. 29, 2018 to release a Classified Memo that purports to show improper use of surveillance by the FBI and the Justice Department in the Russia investigation. The four-page memo has become a political flashpoint, with President Donald Trump and many Republicans pushing for its release and suggesting that some in the Justice Department and FBI have conspired against the president. The memo was written by Republicans on the committee, led by Chairman Rep. Devin Nunes, Republic of California, a close Trump ally who has become a fierce critic of the FBI and the Justice Department. Democrats have called it a selectively edited group of GOP talking points that attempt to distract from the committee's own investigation into Russian meddling. This Memo release could be considered as a big bomb blast in the Political situation of the US during this historical period. FBI declares that the Memo is a lie and that is "Grave Concerns" and that FBI "condemns White House to make Memo public" (https://www.yahoo.com/finance/video/fbi-threatening-trump-chris-farrell-013110878.html).
But today the Washington Times reports that White House informs that "Trump to release surveillance Memo likely Friday". Read this news at:

President Trump will likely tell Congress Friday that he approves of releasing a memo detailing government surveillance abuses, the White House said Thursday.
“The president is OK with it,” a senior administration official said. “I doubt there will be any redactions. It’s in Congress‘ hands after that.”
The official told reporters that Mr. Trump will inform Congress “probably tomorrow” that he approves of releasing the memo.
The official said that it is a congressional process, and that the decision was made after reviewing the memo over the past few days and making sure “it doesn’t give away too much in terms of classification.”
