Judicial Watch: New Emails Reveal FBI Official Peter Strzok Insisted on Retaining Declassification..
JUDICIAL WATCH ^ | 7/31/2018 | ADMIN

Posted on 07/31/2018 11:24:19 AM PDT by bitt

(Washington, DC) – Judicial Watch today released 14 pages of FBI documents concerning the assignment of former FBI Deputy Assistant Director Peter Strzok to Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s operation, showing that Strzok insisted on retaining his FBI security clearance before moving to the Mueller team and confirming that Strzok played a pivotal role in the flawed Hillary Clinton email investigation.

The records were received in response to a December 2017 Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit that was filed after the FBI failed to respond to an August 17, 2017, FOIA request (Judicial Watch, Inc. v. Federal Bureau of Investigation (No. 1:17-cv-02682)). Judicial Watch seeks:

All records regarding the assignment of FBI Supervisor Peter Strzok to the special counsel’s investigation led by former Director Robert Mueller. All records related to the reassignment of FBI Supervisor Peter Strzok from the special counsel’s investigation to another position within the FBI. This request includes, but is not limited to, any and all forms SF-50 and/or SF-52, as well as any and all related records of communication between any official, employee, or representative of the FBI and any other individual or entity. A series of emails reveal Strzok’s insistence that he retain all the authorities he held as a deputy assistant director (DAD) in the counterintelligence division (CD), including his security clearance, after his reassignment to the special counsel’s office. In a July 13, 2017 email to numerous FBI officials, some of whom are redacted, Strzok says:

Broadly, I need to be able to act at least in the capacity of my old CD DAD job – approve NSLs [national security letters], conduct [redacted] declassify information, [redacted] agent travel, requisitions, etc. Of those, the most problematic and one of the most essential is declassification authority.

All due respect to JW et al, When all of these treasonous beasts go to jail are we going to still be reading these three year old news headlines?

Perhaps if you read just part of the article you’ll learn something that just happened.

***********************************************
I’m missing something. Strzok insisted upon retaining his declassification authority when he was assigned to the Mueller investigation AND THIS HAPPENED WHEN TRUMP WAS RUNNING FOR OFFICE? I thought the Special Counsel wasn’t named until Trump was in office?

So what? Most of the country and the media honchos are slow learners.

There was no investigation of HItlery -- otherwise she'd have frog-walked in orange two years ago. Now the partisan hacks who schemed and conspired to let her slip through the noose are going to pay for it, and she'll be dying of the dozen or so ailments she's accumulated from boozing and overeating. Thanks bitt.

I want to know UNDER OATH the names of all women FBI Supervisor Peter Strzok had sex with ... some of them could be Russian or friends of Russians.

Let’s drag the twit Strzok through the mud. Let’s treat these sh*ts with the same respect they give our people. Under oath...
