TGP previously reported, Judicial Watch announced that the National Security Council (NSC) on May 23, 2017, informed it by letter that the materials regarding the unmasking by Obama National Security Advisor Susan Rice of “the identities of any U.S. citizens associated with the Trump presidential campaign or transition team” were removed government possession.
The documents were moved to the Obama Library and under the Presidential Records Act, Presidential records remain closed to the public for five years after an administration has left office.
President of Judicial Watch, Tom Fitton said Wednesday on Fox & Friends that President Trump can obtain these records from the Obama Presidential Library because they are federal records.

I believe they don’t actually break ground until 2018 - so Trump will need to request Mueller retrieve those records, lol, sorry, Mueller has every known Clinton/Obama hack working for him now so it will be a massive delay after delay after delay ...
They MUST get these records. If it requires a SWAT team raid on the 0bama library, I am 100% in favor of it. This is in your face spoliation of evidence.
I predict Sandy Burger will be coming out of retirement.
“Susan Rice has suffered enough, she’s a good person” /s
Do we consider Congressional Investigators to be "the public"?
This shouldn't even be an issue.
I thought they were also obtainable by the DOJ/FBI is they are evidence in a criminal investigation that is active? The records don’t belong to Obama; they’re not his personal effects. So the documents are property of the US Government and therefore can be obtained by any criminal investigation. Yes?
I’m willing to wait for as long as it takes to nail 0bama to the wall. And he will be. Hillary, too. Karma will prevail. I mean, we’re still finding old Nazis from time to time, Right?
I seriously wonder how Soros hasn’t been arrested for his crimes, though...don’t both Hungary and Russia have warrants out for him?
So many criminals associated with the DNC!
Call Assange.
Perhaps, the material is on Seth Rich’s computer.
Maybe Anthony Weiner has a backup.
Where in the world is Jeff Sessions?
Is Sessions hiding out with Eric Braverman?
Hold a trial anyway. Find Rice guilty and sentence her to 75 years. If she can convince Obama to release the records to try and help her case, then fine... let’s see them... otherwise, too bad.
I have a question. In this day and age where everything is computerized and backed up, how can ANYTHING be completely removed and taken/hidden from the government and “buried” at a Presidential Library?

So can Congress.

And?
He's a Democrat isn't he?
Where’s the sock stuffer Sandy Berger when the obozo needs him?
“I predict Sandy Burger will be coming out of retirement.”
Sandy is dead Obie!
He’s dead Jim.
Yak, yak, yak. Send federal marshal to wherever these records are , pick them up, then give them to Sessions. Done.
