Federal Judge Blocks Access To Redacted Hillary Clinton Emails
Yahoo News ^ | February 22, 2017 | Pranshu Rathi

Posted on 02/23/2017 6:29:32 AM PST by detective

Judicial Watch, a conservative group attempting to get access to State Department records related to Hillary Clinton’s email scandal, was denied permission on Tuesday after a federal judge ruled that the documents don’t indicate any evidence of government “malfeasance.”

The judgment concluding that none of the redacted emails suggested any “hints of nefarious government action or motive in responding to that conduct,” came in response to a lawsuit by Judicial Watch on May 6, 2015, after it made a Freedom of Information Act request on March 17, 2015.

U.S. District Judge James E. Boasberg, who himself reviewed the 30 disputed records, wrote: “the Court….concludes that Judicial Watch has not provided a sufficient basis to believe that the information withheld by the State Department would shed light on any government misconduct.”

Hopefully, the ruling can be successfully appealed.

Really?
These same emails sent illegally to a private server, deleted illegally, and then denied?
Really?

President Barack Obama formally nominated Boasberg to the District Court for the District of Columbia.[8] Boasberg was confirmed on March 14, 2011 by a vote of 96 ayes to 0 nays.[11] He received his commission on March 17, 2011.

OBAMA JUDGE!

Boasberg = Skull & Bones

My confidence in the integrity of the ruling is zero.

Damn “judges” protecting the communists again. One of these fags released every email ever written by Scott Pruitt yesterday. Funny how these pedophiles in burkas have so many double standsrds.

I can’t decide who is the worst enemy of the American people, the media or the judiciary.

I really wish Pres Trump’s DOJ would investigate Obama’s fraudulent “birth certificate,” which would lead to his invalidation as President, which would lead to the nullification of his judicial appointments.

Yeah, I wish that.

Both. But they will be rushed to the front of the line when the Angels collect all the Tares together to be burned.

Both, along with the democrat party. Three legs on the same stool.

It’s so handy when the judge decides a case for you, before you have to go through all that messy process of reviewing the evidence you requested...

“...investigate Obama’s fraudulent “birth certificate,”

I agree. The BC is a proven forged document. So is his Selective Service registration. And then there’s his fraudulent SSNs. I hope someone, somewhere in the revitalized DoJ is looking at this as well as the multiple Clinton crimes. I will be very disappointed if the DoJ doesn’t pursue these criminal matters. But, sadly, I won’t be surprised if they don’t.

Judges’ excuses are descending to the level of ‘the dog ate my homework.’

Has the judge seen the unredacted versions? If so, isn’t the judge assuming everyone everywhere would agree with the assessment?

This decision is akin to saying whatever robbers did with the money after robbing the bank is irrelevant.

Yes. And the Obama Admin investigated it self for many illegal activities and could find no evidence of wrongdoing either. Yet, Schumer has said the Trump Admin must not be allowed to investigate itself for anything. The Libs control the judiciary and we had better get a handle on that or this country is toast.

‘Can’t stop Trump’s DOJ from seeing them.”

Trump could leak if it wouldn’t compromise investigation or judicial process.

U.S. District Judge James E. Boasberg is a democratic shill. He was appointed by Barack Obama. What else could you expect?
