FBI Finds 30 Pages of Clinton-Lynch Tarmac Meeting Documents
A Spy Ring in the U.S. House of Representatives?
Sanctuary Cities Released Illegals with Assault, Drug, and Weapon Charges
Who is running the store at the FBI!?
First the FBI told us it had no documents related to the infamous tarmac meeting between former Attorney General Loretta Lynch and former President Bill Clinton.
But now the FBI just told us that the FBI located 30 pages of documents related to the June 27, 2016, meeting, and it proposes that it produce non-exempt material no later than November 30, 2017.
This is in response to our Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit ( Judicial Watch v. U.S. Department of Justice (No. 1:16-cv-02046)) filed after the Justice Department failed to comply with a July 7, 2016, FOIA request seeking the following:
The FBI originally informed us that it didn’t locate any records related to the tarmac meeting. However, in a related case , the Justice Department located emails in which Justice Department officials wrote that they had communicated with the FBI. As a result, by letter dated August 10, 2017, the FBI told us: “Upon further review, we subsequently determined potentially responsive documents may exist. As a result, your [FOIA] request has been reopened …”
Well, well.
(Surprisingly, the Trump Justice Department refuses to disclose the talking points developed by the Obama Justice Department to help it respond to press inquiries about the controversial June 27, 2016, tarmac meeting between Loretta Lynch and Bill Clinton at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport.)
On June 27, 2016, Attorney General Loretta Lynch met privately with former President Bill Clinton on board a parked private plane at Sky Harbor International Airport in Phoenix, Arizona. The meeting occurred during the then-ongoing investigation of Mrs. Clinton’s email server, and mere hours before the Benghazi report was released publicly involving both Mrs. Clinton and the Obama administration. We filed a request on June 30 that the U.S. Department of Justice Office of the Inspector General investigate that meeting.
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. We 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.
This case has also forced the FBI to release to the public the FBI’s Clinton investigative file, although more than half of the records remain withheld. The FBI has also told us that it anticipates completing the processing of these materials by July 2018.
There is significant controversy about whether the FBI and Obama Justice Department investigation gave Clinton and other witnesses and potential targets preferential treatment.
The Obama administration extended numerous immunity agreements, including: Clinton’s former Chief of Staff Cheryl Mills; John Bentel, former director of the State Department’s Office of Information Resources Management; Heather Samuelson, Clinton’s executive assistant; Brian Pagliano, an IT employee at the State Department who serviced the Clinton non-government server; and an employee at Platt River Networks, the company that maintained it. It is not clear whether Hillary Clinton received some type of immunity.
In 2015, a political action committee run by McAuliffe, a close friend and political supporter of Bill and Hillary Clinton, donated nearly $500,000 to Jill McCabe, wife of McCabe, who was then running for the Virginia State Senate. Also, the Virginia Democratic Party, over which McAuliffe had significant influence, donated an additional $207,788 to the Jill McCabe campaign. In July 2015, Andrew McCabe was in charge of the FBI’s Washington, DC, field office, which provided personnel resources to the Clinton email probe. Judicial Watch has several lawsuits about this McCabe/FBI/Clinton scandal.
We’ll be sure to report back to you when we get the new documents.

They are being too nice and deferrential. Even if the new admin were not going to produce corruption charges, they should at least have press conferences or press releases telling the public about the neck deep corruption.
The press would spin it so that it was “Trump’s fault”
“I’m sure it is, many heads should roll.”
Yea, well we all know how that will work out.
The perps will just walk away...
I haven’t been able to find when JW was informed, sorry.
Looks like it was hiding in plain sight, here’s link to letter. Comey had to be the Director.

Figures that this creepy crook Comey was hiding the info, doesn't it.
Thank God, also, for Judicial Watch and its bulldog staff.

My pleasure, FRiend.
Yes I thought Comey was probably the Director, like you said it figures.
While we wait for the documents, maybe the FBI can tell us:
1) How many times did Lynch as AG use private jets, instead of public airlines?
2) If so, who paid for the expensive flights? (Not just the one when she met Bill to obstruct justice and/or coordinate the “Russian collusion” narrative.) Aggregate value=?
3) If it was not the taxpayers paying, was this a form of bribery or sale of office/influence? What did she give in return?
4) Did she report the value of all flights donated to her as income and pay taxes on it? If not, isn’t that tax evasion?
Have read some good things about Wray.
I hope they’re true..........sigh
Not like “ Fake Eddie Munster “ Paul Ryan.....
LOL......good one........;)
Judicial Watch- Doing what the Republican Congress and Jeff Sessions don’t have the stones to do.
