Afederal judge has denied a motion by the Department of Justice and the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) to dismiss a suit filed by Just the News editor-in-chief John Solomon seeking to obtain records related to the FBI's investigation of alleged Russian collusion with the Trump campaign.
"Upon consideration of [10] Defendants' Motion to Dismiss, it is hereby ORDERED that the motion is DENIED WITHOUT PREJUDICE as duplicative of the issues and arguments raised in the parties' cross-motions for summary judgment," wrote U.S. District Court Judge Richard Leon on March 29. "The Court will address all such issues and arguments together, including the Government's jurisdictional grounds for dismissal, in a future order resolving the summary judgment motions."
"To the extent the Government believes there are additional arguments raised in its motion to dismiss that are not addressed in the summary judgment briefing or the Court's future order, it will have the opportunity to renew those arguments after the Court's decision on the parties' motions for summary judgment. SO ORDERED," he continued.

Solomon was fired from the Hill several years ago because he reported the truth (mainly on Ukraine) and they just couldn't have that.
Gosh, a suit to get collusion records that the DoJ and NARA wanted dismissed? You would think they would be happy to share all of the evidence that they gathered regarding Russian collusion. Why hide it?
That is a darn good question. They can’t be afraid of provoking Russia. We are already bankrolling the war against them. It would also be a good opportunity to steamroll Trump before the election.....if it were true.
I think, most importantly, it’s to keep cover for what the Obama administration was doing in 2015-2016 while perpetuating the lie.

“DENIED WITHOUT PREJUDICE”

The denial is a bit weak.
They will probably be lost.
Lost or when it comes time to produce them they’ll just do nothing and dare someone to complain.
