Just in case your sensibilities haven’t been offended enough, the FBI wants you to know that your interest in Hillary Clinton’s emails is less important than protecting her privacy. Therefore, the FBI says it will not be releasing any more information on the subject. In effect, the FBI is telling you to go to hell and there isn’t a damn thing you can do about it.
In March 2016, Ty Clevenger, a New York City lawyer sought government correspondence on the subject of Clinton’s emails under the Freedom of Information Act. Earlier this month, the head of the FBI’s Records Management Division finally got around to answering Mr. Clevenger’s query. The FBI informed Mr.Clevenger that the Bureau has “determined you have not sufficiently demonstrated that the public’s interest in disclosure outweighs personal privacy interests of the subject.” In other words, the FBI blew off Mr. Clevenger and the rest us. And it took over a year for the FBI to do so. Perhaps, the FBI also believes that Clinton’s privacy is so important that it justifies her deletion of over 30,000 emails, which were government records.
Given its terse reply, the FBI could have answered Mr. Clevenger the same day it received his inquiry, instead it deliberately stalled over a year before offending Mr. Clevenger and we, the public, with its ridiculous self-serving answer. The FBI’s reply recalls New York City’s Tammany Hall leader, Boss Tweed, who famously told pain-in-the-ass citizens, who dared question him about blatant public corruption, “What are you going to do about it?”

Doesn’t the FBI work for Trump? He needs to be asked this on press conference. He needs to direct FBI to release information.
Trump is in charge of the DOJ. Time to Kick A$$ and fire employees.
Taking a page from the IRS’s playbook.
Somebody wake up Jeff Sessions.
Sessions is part of the swamp.
Sessions remains under House Arrest by the denizens of the Deep Stater still firmly in power at the Dept. of Just-Us.
Trump is a cornered king in check mate, surrounded and controlled by swamp creatures like H.R. McBilderberger, protégé of Petraeus.
Obama holdovers are still guiding the DOJ, FBI, and even the military. (Mattis to Trump: "No" to your transgender ban.)
NEVER believe hype about "popular" generals. They are public relations monsters above all.
Ditto Rosenstein and the rest in FBI. Swamp creatures. Trump is a cornered king in check.
Agreed. See #8.
See #8. Thoughts?
Why is Andrew McCabe still working at the FBI?
Jeff Sessions’ lack of interest is only exceeded by Robert Mueller’s.
Nope, they work for that other guy.
We need to investigate the FBI
What did they do with the SOLYNDRA FILES???
And no interest by the MSM in this to embarrass them into giving it up.(Where is Trump on this?)
Note that Trump's phone call transcripts with foreign leaders, what he said at meetings, all leaked to MSM.
Hillary's emails NOT.
Ok, let's take a vote on it. Oh wait....WE ALREADY DID!
LOCK HER UP!
They are hiding a lot more than Hillary emails is my guess.
Summed up nicely in a graphic. And true.
I can’t understand why McCabe hasn’t been fired.
