Ty Clevenger has fired off a blistering letter to Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel, accusing the FBI of flagrantly concealing critical records about the late DNC staffer Seth Rich and the now-discredited Russia collusion narrative.
In February 2024, Clevenger demanded that the FBI hand over the Seth Rich documents they continue to conceal from the public.
The FBI’s refusal follows a pattern of obfuscation. For years, the agency denied even possessing Seth Rich’s laptop—until Clevenger’s legal efforts forced the FBI to admit they had it all along. Yet, the agency still refuses to disclose any metadata from Seth Rich’s electronic devices.
Even more damning, Clevenger has already uncovered proof that the FBI improperly withheld pages from the CrowdStrike report related to the alleged 2016 DNC hack—an event that conveniently became a political weapon against President Donald Trump.
Earlier this month, Attorney Ty Clevenger filed a motion in federal court to hold the FBI in contempt for what he calls a “deliberate and willful defiance” of a court order mandating the release of key information related to murdered DNC staffer Seth Rich.
The letter obtained by The Gateway Pundit on Thursday implicates former DOJ and intelligence officials in what Clevenger describes as a systemic cover-up designed to protect the Obama-era deep state operatives and their media allies.
Clevenger, representing plaintiff Brian Huddleston in a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit against the FBI (Huddleston v. Federal Bureau of Investigation), claims the agency is withholding documents that could unravel the official narrative surrounding Rich’s 2016 murder and the so-called Russian hacking of DNC emails.
The attorney argues that the FBI’s refusal to release records, including those from Rich’s work laptop, is not only a violation of FOIA but also an attempt to shield evidence that could exonerate Russia and point to an inside job at the DNC.
In his letter to Pam Bondi, Kash Patel, and other Trump officials, Clevenger highlights compelling evidence suggesting Rich was the source of the DNC emails published by Wikileaks, not Russian hackers as alleged by the Mueller investigation and the intelligence community.

MAY 1 will be Pres Trump's 100th Day.
I, too, want a lot of high profile arrests to start soon, and have been disappointed in both the Executive AND the GOP Legislative Branches so far... but the Left has been playing their obstruction games, and some things take time.
I'm not giving up hope yet.
Or just send her a scathing letter...
And you know this firsthand? Are you on the inside? Pretty easy to say these kinds of things sitting in the stands. I’m willing to give them more than 90 days before I start trashing them. But hey, that’s just me.
Very well thought out reply. Thank you.
Every point you make is correct.
I have full faith in DJT on this. He knows exactly what is at stake here (his own life and the future of the country he loves)
Notice how he himself doesnt comment/tweet about it and reporters are too stupid to ask him about it.
He stated in an interview in 1998 that he firmly believes in seeking revenge on those who have harmed you (its on youtube)
I have to trust that he and the team are working on this (no, not q-anon or 4d chess nonsense)
There have been no known crazy political fbi raids or ruby ridge type operations since he’s been in office, so we know they are not going full rouge/coup level (unlike israel where the deep state is in full tyrannical coup mode against bibi)
DJT is not in this to lose....
“not q-anon or 4d chess nonsense”
You sound exactly like them—but then assure us your post is nothing like that.
omg.
Then STFU.
I agree we need patience. Just because something is in the infotainment cycle doesn’t mean it is their sole priority and can be resolved in a 60 minute episode. All of these new people have huge learning curves for the positions they are in.
“huge learning curves”
RFK Jr. walked into a bureaucracy bigger and more complicated than DOJ and the FBI put together and has slashed thousands and thousands of staff, billions and billions in grants, endless pages of complex and horrific regulations.
According to the “experts” he was not even qualified for the job.
What he had was “attitude”. He did not get mad—he got even.
Nobody needed to make excuses for him.
That is why Kennedys go down in history while the Bondis and Patels of this world are footnotes in obscure texts.
“and point to an inside job at the DNC.”
Didn’t one of Hillary’s attorneys write in an email the Rich should be made an “example?”
Heads on pikes is what we want.
Nice liberal tactic. You criticize, I point it out, you tell me to F-Off. Looks like you have the appropriate screen name.
So because he acted the quickest, he’s going down in history. You nor I have no idea of what is going down inside all these departments. But as you consistently show, you have zero patience and I will call you, as I have before, one of the Veruka Salts of this forum.
I am comparing the DOJ and FBI with the other departments in the administration.
We have had incredible staff cuts, grant cuts, regulation slashing in department after department after department.
They can proudly brag about these accomplishments in press releases.
From DOJ and FBI we get “trust me bro”.
I’m just not ready to condemn them based on our ‘media’ reports. I don’t have faith that journalists are capturing or able to capture all that is going on or not going on nor do i expect the new leadership to jump into a press conference at each bit of success.
I should be candid and admit I am not relying solely on media reports.
I follow federal employee discussion groups and there have been rumors of some activity at DOJ.
But—I have no official or media source to confirm them for now—and I would not expect anyone to believe such rumors if I did.
I most certainly would not condemn anyone for being impatient with Bondi and Patel.
You have to work with the evidence you have.
Ooh, a BLISTERING letter. Bet that’ll make all the difference.
It’s not liberal to tell an idiot to STFU.
Patel has promoted the worst of the worst at the FBI. One does not to be insider to see that. Steven Jensen, who targeted Catholics made DC Chief is just one example.
All of us want “a lot of high profile arrests”, Teacher317.
But, really... Let’s start with just one or two, maybe second-tier leadership with a story to tell.
Let’s get started, SOMEWHERE!
Big difference, DOJ/FBI are dealing with criminals and therefore prosecutions. Ask a persecutor how long it takes to build a case.
