The DOJ is responsible for approving the bureau’s warrant applications and ultimately for convening a grand jury.
Fox News has previously confirmed the Justice Department was opposed to Comey making public the latest Clinton revelations.
Kadzik had been an attorney with Dickstein Shapiro LLP for 18 years before he represented Podesta in the Clinton/Lewinsky investigation. He was hired in 2000 as a lobbyist for tax cheat Marc Rich, who was controversially granted a pardon by President Bill Clinton during Clinton’s final days in office. Kadzik got the job “because he was ‘trusted by [White House Chief of Staff John] Podesta,’ and was considered to be a ‘useful person to convey [Marc Rich’s] arguments to Mr. Podesta,’” according to a 2002 House Oversight Committee report.
Podesta and Kadzik kept up their relationship after Kadzik was appointed to the DOJ. In a May 5, 2015 email, Kadzik’s son, PJ, wrote to Podesta seeking a job on Hillary Clinton’s newly launched presidential campaign.
“I have always aspired to work on a presidential campaign, and have been waiting for some time now for Hilary [sic] to announce so that I can finally make this aspiration a reality,” PJ Kadzik wrote.
Podesta said he would “check around,” but it’s unclear what came of the request.
Kadzik was also a dinner guest of Podesta and his wife, Mary, on Oct. 23, 2015 – the day after Hillary Clinton testified before the House Benghazi committee, another email shows.
In a separate exchange about another dinner meeting, on Jan. 12, 2016, Kadzik emailed Podesta: “We on?”
Podesta replied, “Yes sorry. 7:30 at our place.”
“Great. C u then,” Kadzik wrote back the next day.
Though he said he has had “many differences” with Kadzik, Rep. Trey Gowdy, R.-S.C., said on “Fox & Friends” Tuesday that he wasn’t concerned about any potential conflicts of interest.
“Peter Kadzik is not a decision maker, he is a messenger,” Gowdy said.
Kadzik is still a key official in the department. He “led the successful effort to confirm Attorney General Loretta E. Lynch and Deputy Attorney General Sally Q. Yates,” according to his DOJ biography. Lynch has come under increased scrutiny since it emerged she met privately with Bill Clinton in the days before the FBI initially said it would not seek to prosecute Hillary Clinton.
TRUMP/PENCE 2016
Kazdik -
1- lawyer
2- media flack for department
3- (what else could go wrong.... used car salesman)
I guess they're hoping he can go 2 for 2.
This is whats happening at the FBI today.
Historically, cockroaches tend not to fair well when they are forced out in the light. The time between now and the election is so short that this is at best a side show. He can’t hope to put a lid on this and Wiki-links in 7 days. As to disappearing things, they seem to have been less successful than anyone expected. The bottom of the barrel isn’t even close.
Prosecute treason.
It might take a PAIR of Attorney Generals under Trump to clean up all of this mess.
There will need to be a whole squadron of Special Prosecutors.
At least we know lots of names for the Grand Jury summons .....
Room for all of them at Gitmo-—No wonder Obama wanted to close that place-— NOW—we have a good reason to keep it open.
Valerie Jarrett needs to be in the middle of those indictments, also, IMO.
