FBI Caught Burying Smoking-Gun Thumb Drives Containing “Unreviewed Info” on Clinton Email Scandal for Six Years — Grassley Demands Kash Patel Review Materials ASAP
Gateway Pundit, ^ | Jul. 29, 2025 | Jim Hᴏft

Posted on 07/29/2025 6:07:47 PM PDT by george76

Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-IA) and House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence Chairman Rick Crawford (R-AR) have dropped a political nuke on Washington: Smoking-gun thumb drives containing unreviewed evidence in the Hillary Clinton email scandal have been sitting in an FBI office collecting dust for over SIX YEARS.

The letter, addressed directly to FBI Director Kash Patel, demands that the unevaluated materials — which include sensitive intelligence, foreign communications, and damning evidence related to the Clinton Foundation and Barack Obama — be immediately reviewed and exposed to the American people.

“Thumb drives containing unreviewed info on the Clinton email scandal & mishandling of highly classified info [have] been sitting at an FBI offshoot office since 2018. I sent a letter [with] House Intel Chair Crawford asking [Director] Patel [to] review materials & report back ASAP,” Grassley

...

This untapped and unreviewed information has lived within thumb drives in the FBI’s custody inside a Northern Virginia offshoot office of the FBI’s Washington Field Office since 2018. This letter was sent in response to Chairman Grassley’s efforts to get the appendix to the DOJ OIG’s June 2018 report reviewing the DOJ and FBI’s handling of the Clinton investigation, also known as the “Clinton annex,” declassified.”

Grassley and Crawford issued the following statement:

“The revelations contained in the declassified OIG appendix are at the heart of why the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) became distrusted by so many under your agency’s prior directors: a failure to impartially conduct its law enforcement and intelligence mission. Concerning the issue at hand, Comey’s FBI shockingly failed to review and exploit evidence in its own possession, even though they admitted in written memos the information was necessary to conduct a ‘thorough and complete investigation.’ The FBI also failed to review and exploit other foreign intelligence information.”

“Therefore, we now write to stress the importance that this material be immediately dug out from hiding and properly assessed. How evidence which purportedly includes information related to ‘former President Barack Obama’s emails’ and ‘network infrastructure diagrams for U.S. government classified networks,’ remained unreviewed by the preeminent law enforcement agency in the world is mind-numbing. We know you will not similarly ignore evidence in your agency’s possession, no matter where its exploitation or conclusions might lead.”

Oh boy. Another sternly worded letter from Grassley.

How about a few subpoenas, Chuck?

The Foundation needs a forensic audit.

How about Pence? He might have been a co-conspirator.

Patel will ask the good cops at the FBI why they sat on this for so long and then announce promotions.

I am sick of all of them. House appropriators are funding NED..the CIA slush fund . Commie Karen bass was a director at one time .

It’s all one big cover up circus.

Blondobondi won’t even release a prison tape to show she isn’t lying about all tapes having a missing minute..or is it two ...or maybe 5.

Come on .we know by now something is messed up here ..

That “material” was corrupted years ago.

Watch out for planted evidence that the Feds are famous for.

Kash is too busy protecting elitist pedophiles to bother with this.

Comey admitted she broke the law several times. But, no reasonable prosecutor (as in one who wants themselves and their families to live) would dare press charges.

You’re assuming that there actually are “good cops” at the FBI. There’s no way Patel and Bongino can remove the trash and sanitize the organization, considering the level of filth that’s existed there for decades.

“Comey admitted she broke the law several times.”

Trump’s First Mistake: Not prosecuting Hillary, or at least trying to. I suppose that in 2016 it would’ve been impossible, considering he was a babe in the woods as to the cesspool he was walking into.

Sessions knew he and his family would’ve been Arkancided if he pursued it, so he recused and that’s when the idea pretty much died.

Shawn Hannity assured us 99.9% of FBI are good people.

I was sarcastically using Patel’s “good cops” line. Should have put it in quotes. I know there are no “good cops” at the FBI, unlike fanboy Patel.
