It won't surprise me if the memo gets declassified, but given the intel community owns the declassification and is already highly compromised, I expect extreme redaction in this case. So the original memo might say:

"James Comey reviewed the Fusion GPS dossier and knew it was totally made up but used the dossier in the FISA request to get a FISA warrant issued to spy on the trump campaign"

The redacted and public version might say:

"****** ***** reviewed the ****************** and knew it was *************** but used the ******* in the ************ to get a ************ issued to *************************"

Good luck getting anything done with that level of covering tracks.
