The former Trump DOJ secretly went after records of Schiff, Swalwell, and Kash Patel, in a leaks investigation. They even tried to obtain records and emails from CNN, the Wash. Post, and the NYT. Epic scandal incoming on this one.


From the report:

The FBI told us that for records of in Washington Post 2 and New York Times are retained only in hard copy in envelopes that note "Grand Jury MaterialDisseminate Only Pursuant to Rule 6(e)." The envelopes are kept in locked cabinets to which only current Special Agents and professional staff on each of the squads that handled the respective investigations have access. According to the FBI, all electronic copies of the returns in Washington Post 2 have been deleted from internal FBI systems and records of deletion are included in the envelope with the hard copy returns. The FBI represented to the OIG that, according to the case agent, no digital returns were received in New York Times.

As to the records of the obtained in CNN, the FBI represented to us that electronic copies of the containing these records are retained in a section of its case management system known as a sub-file, which in this case is accessible to 22 individuals who were involved with the investigation, as well as in a folder accessible only on the agent's employee drive. 38 The FBI was unable to provide us with information as to whether any were received in hard copy; it told us that if hard copy records were obtained, following the closure of the investigation, the FBI would have provided them to the FBl's Information Management Division for archival storage of closed case information.
The FBI represented to the OIG that none of the Congress-related or news media-related returns in any of the four investigations are "available for view or use in any other investigation or for other purposes."

Aside from the obvious First Amendment concerns, the obvious deep state lawfare concerns, what does this portend for Patel? He's a national security leaker?

You are putting a statement in the form of a question. There really isn't enough to draw any conclusion or even context within the article.

I would assume as a Congressman that all your information is being processed.

Would be a heckuva world if every communication a Congressperson had was "processed." I just don't think that is the case.

Well, you put "deep state" in the topic yet you don't know how all this works. Not sure what is so holy shnikies at this point on anything. All your **** belongs to the NSA, see Snowden. As a foreigner, all of its completely open which is crazy to think foreigners would use any tech associated with the U.S. but they still do.

So it appears the Dem playbook has hit the streets on how to tie the hands of the incoming DOJ appointees from doing investigations. Lets hope itā€™s popcorn worthy!

So.... what does this tell me. They really really really really don't want that guy in there. You create a fake story based on some truth, which is a lie.

Trump is most likely right over the target. (Just my wild guess) This is very weak. To be honest, I think they're going to have to go back to the JFK route. We're dealing with completely evil people that maybe cornered.

On reading this thread and laughing Iā€™m reminded of the login consent I see every time I login to the company enterprise network where they basically reserve the right to bust in on me on the can while Iā€™m reading ESPN and look over my shoulder. *yawn*

Big freaking deal. This stuff has been going on forever. Whether you're talking Grover Cleveland, Bill Clinton, or Richard Nixon. RepubLIARS and Democreeps play this tit-for-tat crap game all the time instead of truly focusing on what really matters.

Oh spare us the Drama. Biden and the Congressional democrats made this standard operating procedure over the last nine years. Heck, they even spied on Trump when he first ran for President
