Watchdog: FBI has located 30 pages of documents related to Clinton-Lynch tarmac meeting
Washington Examiner ^ | 10/13/17 | Diana Stancy Correll

Judicial Watch, a conservative watchdog group, announced that the FBI has found 30 pages of documents concerning the 2016 tarmac meeting between former President Bill Clinton and former Attorney General Loretta Lynch.

"The FBI is out of control. It is stunning that the FBI ‘found' these Clinton-Lynch tarmac records only after we caught the agency hiding them in another lawsuit," Judicial Watch Tom Fitton said in a statement. "Judicial Watch will continue to press for answers about the FBI's document games in court. In the meantime, the FBI should stop the stonewall and release these new records immediately."

The watchdog group expects to receive the newly revealed documents by the end of November.

Lynch met Bill Clinton on a private plane at Sky Harbor International Airport in Phoenix, Ariz., on June 26, 2016, while the FBI investigation concerning Hillary Clinton's use of a private email server was still underway, raising concerns about Lynch's independence.

In July 2016, Judicial Watch filed a Freedom of Information Act request regarding "all records of communications between any agent, employee, or representative," concerning Clinton's use of a personal email server and Bill Clinton's meeting with Lynch.

The Justice Department failed to comply and led to the FOIA lawsuit that Judicial Watch says paved the way to it expecting a new tranche of documents.

The FBI did not originally uncover documents concerning the tarmac meeting, according to Fox News. However, the Justice Department did find email correspondence related to the meeting in a related case in 2017.

In response, the FBI sent a letter dated August 10, 2017 that said, "Upon further review, we subsequently determined potentially responsive documents may exist. As a result, your [FOIA] request has been reopened…" and added they are investigating any "responsive material."

"We presume they are new documents. We won't know what's in them until we see them, unfortunately," Fitton told Fox News in an email Friday. "The fact they just ‘found' them is yet another scandal."

The meeting was controversial and caused Republicans to question why Lynch met with Hillary Clinton's husband shortly before the investigation of Clinton's use of personal email server concluded without any charges.

Additionally, former FBI Director James Comey said the meeting was troublesome when he testified before the Senate in June.

But I had the last laugh.After having been hung up on by the FBI I called the SEC in DC.
The case is still in the courts.I've been told that I might be called to testify.

Nice! / Awesome.
I haven't found anyone who'll really even listen to me on the issue; I've tried DA, state AG, JAG, etc… but apparently there's no place to report Treason. Or, more likely, nobody in a position of authority wants any of the blowback that would happen by charging essentially the entirety of the previous Senate (plus Obama) with Treason.

They were smart enough not to write anything down for future prying eyes. Probably logistical stuff about arrival times etc, but even that will somewhat refute the accidental meeting meme they put out.

I beginning to think Revolution #2 likened to the founders may become necessary. All agencies within the government are operating on their own. Shut them all down.

The FBI and CIA are now basically a communist Gestapo.

They used to be on OUR side.

Now, they aren’t.

Dark times.

Nothing will happen. But President Trump should tell them to reopen the entire matter.

>>Where the hell is Trump on this on going FBI corruption? If AG Sessions doesn’t clean up the DOJ per the FBI, Trump needs to FIRE him, NOW!<<

I’ve been advocating the same thing for months. Sessions is a lightweight and should be GONE.

I don’t believe how compromised our FBI has become. It’s terrible; so many of them are basically corrupt. At least at the top of the food chain. Joe FBI agent on the bottom rungs have little to no control over the policy decisions made by their compromised and/or corrupt bosses. Yikes, this is deep, dark State at its worst.

>>We know the FBI remains a shill for the democrats, rancid to the core with political favoritism, nothing at all like the great law enforcement agency it was in the past. the only question I have is why has Trump ignored its transgressions since his first day in office and lets it continue to run roughshod over its opponents?<<

I think he’s afraid of the Deep State and fearful they have the power to orchestrate his impeachment. And he could be right.

I donate to Judicial Watch on a regular basis for the great work they do, but I believe that sooner or later Tom Fitton is going to “go missing” because he’s become a festering thorn in the arse of the Swamp Beast.

you saw that Bannon said he thought DJT had only a 30% chance of completing his term?
and now Mueller is going after Preibus..

I’m still believing the DJT has several tricks up his sleeve and we’re going to see some heads roll... “be werry werry quiet, wabbitt...”

Obama had an email alias he used to communicate with Hillary, through her illegal server. This is a known fact. There is zero doubt that their communications contained classified information.

That means, for all the criminality of hillary’s mishandling of classified info, Obama did it, too!!! Exact same thing.

The tarmac meeting was Bill telling Lynch, “if she goes down, she’ll take Obama with her. You better be ready to prosecute the President, if you indict her.”

So obvious, and so few people get it. It explains the entire comey fiasco. And lots of pubbies knew it all along, and Sessions knows it, too. Probably Trump. Hence no interest. Nobody wants to go down that road.

Except us.

Let me guess: they will take months to release them and when they do 90% of the text will be redacted.

Is that about right?

That’s a page a minute. Didn’t they claim they met for only 30 minutes?

What did they already have on the meeting?

Why even report it when nothing will be done about it?

Then what is the purpose of complaining about them?
