Sealing records angers House committee investigating ‘unmasking’
The Washington Times ^ | Thursday, June 22, 2017 | Dan Boylan and Guy Taylor

Nunes, Gowdy, and Schiff, Republicans and Democrats on the House intelligence committee have issued a series of subpoenas to relevant intelligence agencies for records of; X-National Security Adviser Susan Rice, X-CIA Director John Brennan, and X-Ambassador, Samantha Power, concerning the Russia Probe and related matters. Early April Judicial Watch issued a FoIA request to NSC, demanding records concerning Rices’ government communications on a related range of subjects.

House intelligence committee says that legacy NSC staffers, have been slow-walking the subpoenaed materials. “We’ve been waiting since March 15 for this information. //Snipp//

The actual records, it seems, have all been transferred by the hold-over NSC staffers to a heavily secure location for a planned Obama library in “Hoffman Estates”, Illinois. NSC Access Director John Powers explains, “Documents from the Obama administration have been transferred ...“You may send your request to the Obama Library. However, you should be aware that under the Presidential Records Act, presidential records remain closed to the public for five years after an administration has left office.”

The transfer appears to reflect panic of the former administration. Flailing to obstruct discovery on Rice, Brennan, Power and others as cover runs thin.

This won’t work so there will have to be a fire/explosion/flood/tornado to remove the problem.

“under the Presidential Records Act, presidential records remain closed to the public for five years after an administration has left office.””

Congress is NOT the Public.

Jiving won’t work here.

Obstruction of justice?

Sounds like obstruction of justice to me.

And pretending that you can’t go get them is aiding and abetting obstruction of justice.

So go get them.

Sessions should order US Marshals to retrieve the records. Oh wait... Jeff is nowhere to be found.

*...Congress is NOT the Public...*

Exactly...President Trump’s lawyers would know this and act accordingly...

Here it is:

“The PRA also establishes procedures for Congress, courts, and subsequent administrations to obtain special access to records that remain closed to the public, following a 30-day notice period to the former and current Presidents.”

So why doesn’t Congess order the immediate arrest and imprisonment of all involved? Or is it more fun to act shocked and sad before the cameras?

He could be touched, but the UNIPARTY insiders in DC would have to do it....And they won’t....

Sessions is worthless. Hiring him for attorney General was the dumbest thing Trump has done so far.

Why doesn’t he fire him and put someone in there who will do the job?

Soooooo frustrating.
