Deep State Scrambling After Judicial Watch Sues to Uncover ‘Russia Collusion’ Hoax Records

-

Judicial Watch is suing the U.S. in federal court to release records ordered declassified and released by President Trump the day before he left office. 

Despite Trump's order, officials are not releasing the records.

The ordered-declassified records relate to “,” a Justice Department operation against President Trump, his 2016 presidential campaign and other Trump associates that falsely accused the Trump campaign of “colluding” with Russian agents to influence the results of the .

It was later revealed it was Trump's opponent, former Secretary of State , whose campaign worked with Russian agents to produce false material to influence the race. (RELATED: Prosecutors Argue Clinton Lawyer Used FBI to Orchestrate ‘October Surprise' Against Trump)

“The Obama- and Deep State spying on Trump and his associates is the worst government corruption scandal in American history,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. “And to make matters worse, the Biden DOJ simply refuses to release smoking gun documents about this corruption that the American people have an absolute right to see!”

JW notes a “Just the News report details that the documents include ‘transcripts of intercepts made by the FBI of Trump aides, a declassified copy of the final FISA warrant approved by an intelligence court, and the tasking orders and debriefings of the two main confidential human sources, and Stefan Halper, the bureau used to investigate whether Trump had colluded with Russia to steal the 2016 election.'”

The lawsuit was filed after the DOJ failed to respond to a February 17, 2022, FOIA request for:

All records regarding the Federal Bureau of Investigation's Crossfire Hurricane investigation that were provided to the White House by the Department of Justice on or about December 30, 2020. For purposes of clarification, the records sought are those described in a January 19, 2021 Presidential Memorandum (see https://trumpwhitehouse.archives.gov/presidential-actions/memorandum-declassification-certain-materials-related-fbis-crossfire-hurricane-investigation/ ).

All records of communication between any official or employee of the Department of Justice and any official or employee of any other branch, department, agency, or office of the federal government regarding the declassification and release of the records described in part one of this request.

Trump's memo authorized the declassification and release of the records:

By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, I hereby direct the following:

Section 1.  Declassification and Release.    At my request, on December 30, 2020, the Department of Justice provided the White House with a binder of materials related to the Federal Bureau of Investigation's Crossfire Hurricane investigation.  Portions of the documents in the binder have remained classified and have not been released to the or the public.  I requested the documents so that a declassification review could be performed and so I could determine to what extent materials in the binder should be released in unclassified form.

I determined that the materials in that binder should be declassified to the maximum extent possible.  In response, and as part of the iterative process of the declassification review, under a cover letter dated January 17, 2021, the Federal Bureau of Investigation noted its continuing objection to any further declassification of the materials in the binder and also, on the basis of a review that included Intelligence Community equities, identified the passages that it believed it was most crucial to keep from public disclosure.  I have determined to accept the redactions proposed for continued classification by the FBI in that January 17 submission.

I hereby declassify the remaining materials in the binder.  This is my final determination under the declassification review and I have directed the Attorney General to implement the redactions proposed in the FBI's January 17 submission and return to the White House an appropriately redacted copy.

My decision to declassify materials within the binder is subject to the limits identified above and does not extend to materials that must be protected from disclosure pursuant to orders of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court and does not require the disclosure of certain personally identifiable information or any other materials that must be protected from disclosure under applicable law. Accordingly, at my direction, the Attorney General has conducted an appropriate review to ensure that materials provided in the binder may be disclosed by the White House in accordance with applicable law.

  1. Joe the big guy biden caught in another stream of lie, denying how the big guys crime family sold out America for personal financial gain.The investigations should be ongoing now, not after the midterms,this makes the democrats complaisant in their family crimes, also the FBI, DOJ, for covering up their now oblivious international crime family corruption. Our National Security at risk, it Has been occurring with China, Russia, it’s in black and white print now, with voice recordings. Time to hold this crime family accountable.Tell congress you want a special grand jury appointment to look into the biden crime family corruption

  2. Everyone should support Judicial Watch. They are doing Herculean work uncovering and demanding the bureaucracy complies with the law.

    • I agree.. I financially support Judicial Watch! I learned from the Parents who tried to get IFOA when Garland called the Parents “terrorist” that they were being charged high prices for the information.

  3. It won’t really matter unless the Republicans win back the houses in 2022. But we also have to win the WH in 2024 so biden won’t pardon the law breakers and free them from their prison cells. No democrat criminals will ever pay the price for their egregious crimes in the democrats stay in powr!!

    • I wouldn’t be so sure about that “No democrat criminals will ever pay”? We only just begun. Tables are turning. We need to elect “strong Pro-America” candidates. So your right we have to get back the entire WH to clean it out! Its infested with RATS.

      • The first step to that is to change election laws, rules, regulations, procedures and personnel and to clean up the voter rolls so we can have honest elections.

  4. This is the continued destruction of the “rule of law” in America by a weaponized FBI and DOJ against the political opposition (along with the CIA, the IRS, and the DOD), and it is what’s done in China, Russia, and every third world dictatorship. The N.Y. Post now reports that Trump had previously allowed the FBI to search all relevant documents at Mar-a- Lago. It is nothing less than an overt, illegal attempt to find or plant documents for the Jan. 6 committee to prevent Trump from running for President again.

    It is also a clear message for all Americans that you must comply. If they can do this to a billionaire and former President; they can do anything they want to you. Remember the new so-called “inflation reduction act” is not just “Green New Deal” overreach and increasing taxes, it will literally double the size of the IRS; making it bigger than the FBI, the DOJ and the Customs and Border Service combined. From 78,000 agents to over 160,000 and you can rest assured they won’t be going after Democrats. (Remember Lois Lerner?)

    Of course there have never been any raids or consequences for Hillary Clinton, James Comey, Peter Strozk, or Michael Sussman, who we know lied and colluded to concoct the whole fake “dossier” and Russian collusion investigation. No consequences for James Clapper and John Brennan, who were complicit and lied before Congress. No consequences for Hillary destroying 33,000 emails that had been subpoenaed from her after Benghazi. No consequences for Eric Swalwell, who slept with a Chinese spy or Dianne Feinstein, who had a Chinese spy on her staff for 20 years. No consequences for Hunter Biden, who flew around the world with his Dad on Air Force 2, making illegal “pay for play” deals with hostile foreign powers. No consequences for Joe, who lied and said he knew nothing about it. And, of course, no consequences for the Antifa and BLM rioters who destroyed cities and killed dozens in the summer of 2020 but lock up all the Jan. 6 protestors on trumped up “trespassing” charges. I could go on and on. In fact, now we get to listen to some of them lecture us about “the rule of law” on CNBC. Unless there is not a “Red wave” but a Tsunami this Nov., our Republic is finished.

    • The progressive democrat which is another name for Communism should be called the “shallow swamp” because they are butt naked exposed. What you wrote very well Stan is just the tip of the ice berg. The democrats are trying very hard to “project” they have titanic power( psychological warfare tactic) cuz we all know what happen to the Titanic! The democrats constantly shoot themselves in the foot maybe with an AR-15? But tables are turning can see it in the Primaries. I just don’t get it why Democrats do lots of things where the tables can turn on them?
      I would say the “rule of law” is “you reap what you sow” Keep the Faith!

  5. They will not ever do anything to the Princess of Crime because she is part of their party. They have tried for years now to get her for her illegal actions and always cover it up or lie and say she never did anything wrong, but they put Martha Stewart in prison for lying under oath. She is one of those that is Above the Law and can’t be touched.
