Justice Department officials appear to be maneuvering to block the disclosure of documents from the so-called "Russiagate" controversy, according to a top Pentagon official from the Trump administration.
Kash Patel appeared on Fox News on Sunday and defended former President Donald Trump's claims that he issued sweeping declassification orders of documents after the FBI raided his Mar-a-Lago resort and seized more than a dozen boxes of materials in an investigation that could have national security implications.

Patel, who was chief of staff to acting Defense Secretary Christopher Miller and held other high-ranking positions in the Trump administration, said Trump named him his representative to the National Archives, and they have been locked in a "bureaucratic battle" over documents that were taken to his Florida club.
Because there appears to be an "ongoing" counterintelligence investigation, he argued, "you will never be allowed to see the Russiagate docs or any other docs that President Trump lawfully declassified, and they will hide it from the public," Patel told Sunday Morning Futures host Maria Bartiromo. Patel was being interviewed along with Devin Nunes, a former chairman of the House Intelligence Committee who is now the CEO of Trump's social media company.

heard briefly and never mentioned again that they demanded the camera system be shut down and it never was
This is all about them trying to protect themselves from what trump has in his possession
I was listening to a series of lectures on Victorian England. They used to have public voting and one of their concerns about the secret ballot was that they would become subject to ballot box stuffing like in the US. This was back in the late 1800s when we were being used as a bad example of how to run a secure and honest election. It hasn't changed much since then.
Nixon didn’t use a crooked judge, FBI, and DOJ for Watergate.
I know. Isn’t that great.
So you would think that someone in the Biden Administration DOJ/FBI is trying to hide the fact that Obama promoted an illegal smear campaign against the new incoming President Trump on Hillary’s behalf?
How reasonable.
We are now watching the sequel play out in real time. Only this time, we know about the plot holes.
How reasonable.
That would be a cover-up, wouldn't it?
I recall a President who had to resign because of lying about a cover-up.
"the Biden Administration is trying to hide...."
That may be true, but the regime (as Hillary did) has created a lot of potential scapegoats. I don't think it's likely that a DC court would punish Garland (remember Sussman?) but even if he got a fine or probation he could write a book that would sell well in China, and CNN would hire him.
Only a fool would believe anything she said. The aim and Goal of Lying Joe Biden, every member of the media, The Republican Party, the Democrat Party is to keep President Trump out of the White House again.
Agree, but I don’t expect Biden to get the blame for it either. I am not sure he knows where he is half the time.
