White House: Trump to approve release of FISA memo without redactions

The official also said he "doubts" there will be any redactions. "It’s in Congress’ hands after that,” he said.

Why it matters: Trump will likely receive backlash from the left as well as the FBI for giving his approval, especially after the FBI warned in a rare statement Wednesday that they have "grave concerns" about the document.
