Why Did FBI-DOJ Give Comey Special Treatment for $2 Million Book Deal?
The New American ^ | 20 April 2018 | William F. Jasper

Posted on 04/20/2018 2:34:44 PM PDT by detective

Judicial Watch filed suit against the Justice Department for documents related to James Comey's new book, as holdovers from the Obama administration at the DOJ and FBI continue to thwart the Trump administration and members of Congress who are attempting to drain the swamp.

On April 17, Judicial Watch, the public watchdog legal group, announced that it had just filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit against the Justice Department for FBI prepublication review and other records about former FBI Director James Comey’s book, A Higher Loyalty: Truth, Lies, and Leadership. The book was released, amidst much media hoopla, on April 17 (see our coverage here and here) and the former FBI chief fired by President Trump has been doing the revenge circuit, blasting the president in a heavy schedule of interviews with all of the media outfits Trump has dissed as “Fake News.”

Judicial Watch filed the suit after the Justice Department failed to produce any records in response to a March 16, 2018, FOIA request, which had sought: 1) “All records of communications between the FBI and former FBI director James Comey relating to an upcoming book [A Higher Loyalty] to be authored by Mr. Comey”; and 2) “All records, including but not limited to forms completed by former FBI director James Comey, relating to the requirement for prepublication review by the FBI of any book to be authored by Comey with the intent to be published or otherwise publicly available.”

Dear Mr. President, DRAIN THE DAMN SWAMP ALREADY. If you fail to act, they are going to eat you alive.

Do it like YESTERDAY, Trump.

Get ready to enjoy the summer/fall. Patience is tough, but soon to be reworded. Expect the really good stuff after the midterms.
