Washington (AFP) - The FBI has unexpectedly released documents concerning ex-president Bill Clinton's pardon of the husband of a wealthy Democratic donor, in a surprise move just days before the election in which his wife is seeking to become America's first female president.
The release of the heavily redacted 129-page report over the pardon of trader Marc Rich -- an investigation that closed in 2005 without charges -- triggered questions from Democrats already angered by the FBI's probe into hundreds of thousands of newly uncovered emails possibly linked to Hillary Clinton.
While the Rich documents were published online Monday, they received little notice until they were posted on Tuesday on a Twitter account for the Federal Bureau of Investigation's division managing Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests that had had no posts since a year ago, except for a small handful released simultaneously on Sunday.
"Absent a FOIA litigation deadline, this is odd," said Hillary Clinton spokesman Brian Fallon.
"Will FBI be posting docs on Trump's housing discrimination in '70s?" he added, referring to Clinton's Republican rival Donald Trump, a billionaire real estate magnate.
The FBI said the documents were posted shortly after they were processed, as with FOIA materials requested three or more times.

I do love me a big heaping helping of karma....especially if i get to watch
I suspect both parties do this. Anyone remember cases from the past before this?
The Kenyan must be $Hitting bricks, hence he came out in full support of Comey.
“DECISION 2016: TargetSmart poll - 28% of Republicans in FL switching over as Clinton voters”
And yet Trump is ahead in the Fl. State polls, I guess Targetsmart forgot to mention that 33% of RATS are voting for Trump.
One of my all time favorite songs....hauntingly beautifil.
“Just a friendly reminder to the Clintons that they have enough info to lock them both away for life.”
And President Trump is going to “oblige” them! He cannot allow the Clinton Crowd or the Obamas to escape prosecution. None of this “let’s heal the country” BS we’ve gotten in the past when the Republicans took over. The only way the corruption will stop is when there’s a price to be paid for it!
And while I’m at it, thank you Jim from the bottom of my heart, for what you continue to do for all of us by reason of FR!
“I think Comey has lost control of the FBI and the Patriots who work there are getting information out to the public as fast as they can.”
And I think the patriots have made it clear to Hussein and Lynch that their futures are in jeopardy if they try to thwart the effort to deal with the Clinton Crime Family. It seems there’s a more mellow atmosphere around the White Hut and DOJ since about Sunday.
Oh please please please give us Justice! Get obama for his crimes too!
“NYPD would NEVER let that laptop go without a backup thumb drive!!! NO WAY!!!”
Last week, someone in the know said that when a PD is looking at info in a computer, they automatically make a backup of everything. Then they work from the backup device, leaving the original intact. So it sounds like there’s at least one backup. Probably two backups, considering NC was/is working on the Weiner case, too.
Are Seth Rich and Mark Rich related in any way?
The way I would do it would be to copy the raw disk onto another disk. that way there is the possibility that parts of deleted files and deleted file metadata can be recovered. Raw disk images tend to be much larger than thumb drive capacities.
So.....the FBI usurps the police, grabs the Weiner laptop, and takes the hammer to it. Case closed again. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
You can bet that NYPD has a complete , forensically verified true copy of the hard drive of Weiner’s Lap Top.( Easy to do using “Ghost” software.)
Even IF the FBI destroyed Weiners lap top, the data is preserved, likley preserved in several locations public and private, by the NYPD.
And do not think any of this is purely serendipitous. Donald Trump is very close with the NYC Police Union and the NYC police commissioner.I expect he knew about what was coming for weeks....he has been calling Clinton a criminal who should not be allowed to run for ablut a month now. And he is right , yet again.
Trump has the ability to fight the Dems on their own dirty terms....and win. Great quality to have as a president.
If Hitlery is elected, there will be no more FOIA, no more oversight of elected officials (D), no more retention of communications.
We’ve already seen the track record.
Dounds like there may be a few honest people in the corrupt FBI.
A good reason to never elect lawyers to the Presidency!
I think Barrack Obama wants his wife to runfor POTUS in 2020, so they need to sink the fat pig now
Is Obama trying to keep Hillary out?
The days of the Clintoons crapping all over anyone who opposes them are over!!!
Isn’t it rich? Isn’t it queer?
Losing my timing this late in my career
But where are the clowns? Send in the clowns
Well, maybe next year
LOL.
