The FBI Friday released 71 heavily redacted pages describing that it had corresponded with former British spy Christopher Steele, the author of a dossier alleging collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia, and revealed the agency was paying him to gather intelligence.

In addition, the papers show the FBI had determined Steele was the source for an online...

Internet researcher Katica has again discovered the FBI quietly, and without explanation, just released another batch of documents from the “ongoing” FBI investigation into Hillary Clinton’s email use and classified information. This is release #7, and follows the prior release #6 which oddly took place on Superbowl weekend. This batch includes FBI notes from multiple interviews including Sidney Blumenthal, and contains discussions of guidance and opinion provided to Blumenthal (with the intent to pass along to Clinton) by a retired CIA operative identified in the notes as “TD”. Who is “TD”? ….Tyler Drumheller (April 12, 1952 – August 2, 2015)...

Published on Jan 9, 2017 FBI Releases More Clinton Email Records - Smoking Gun - Judge Andrew Napolitano - Lou Dobbs ==============================­=========­=­===

As many of you are aware the FBI mysteriously dumped 300 pages of investigative material in an unusual Sunday evening upload. For the sake of brevity we are calling it “a release”. [ ] In addition to the Sidney Blumenthal angle, the question posed by Lou Dobbs about FBI motive for uploading the documents is a dangling participle remaining from the discussion. However, within the release on Page #283 there’s an important discovery which may answer that question. Bear with me, as I try to explain a complex issue. As outlined by the research group behind the Thompson Timeline, there’s...

Not sure what drives the timing, but it would seem rather unusual for the FBI to release a document dump of investigative files relating to the “Clinton Mishandling of Classified Information” on a Sunday.

The attached Part 5 pdf file is 300 pages and is downloadable. We have not yet had time to review all the content. However, we have transferred the content to a viewable and embed format...

The email at the heart of a "quid pro quo" controversy involving a senior State Department executive and the FBI contained intelligence about suspects in the 2012 Benghazi terrorist attack, two government sources told Fox News. Heavily redacted FBI interview summaries, known as 302s, state that Patrick Kennedy, a top lieutenant to Hillary Clinton when she was secretary of state, wanted to deep-six the email – which was one of two on her personal server that kick-started the FBI investigation into the mishandling of classified information on her unsecured system. The Nov. 18, 2012 email sent to then-Secretary Clinton by...

House Dem on ‘Quid Pro Quo’ Emails: Maybe FBI or State Dept Employee’s Conduct ‘Should Be Looked At’ BY: Chandler Gill October 18, 2016 10:02 am Rep. Jerrod Nadler (D., N.Y.) told CNN’s Aliysn Camerota on Tuesday that the alleged “quid pro quo” conversation between the State Department and FBI regarding the classification of one of Hillary Clinton’s private emails may mean that the conduct of those involved “should be looked at.” “Now, does this mean that maybe the conduct of one of the people involved in the FBI or in the State Department should be looked at?” Nadler asked....

Documents revealed Kennedy tried to horse-trade with the FBI, offering additional slots for the bureau overseas if they would de-classify a particular email from Hillary Clinton’s server marked “SECRET.” The files also revealed he repeatedly tried to “influence” the bureau’s decision when his offer was denied, even taking his plea up the chain of command. Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump said at a campaign rally in Wisconsin that the new revelation was worse than Watergate. "This is one of the great miscarriages of justice in the history of our country," he said. Trump went on to accuse the State Department...

This ominous tweet of "more" with the above link was just sent out by the Drudge Report. There is a disclosure once you hit the link. Maybe some can make heads or tails of it: "Hillary Rodham Clinton served as U.S. Secretary of State from January 21, 2009 to February 1, 2013. The FBI conducted an investigation into allegations that classified information was improperly stored or transmitted on a personal e-mail server she used during her tenure."

Then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was "contemptuous" toward security agents and even put officials traveling with her in “unnecessary danger” by pursuing a photo op for her "election campaign" in a risky area of Jakarta during a 2009 visit, according to a security agent interviewed by the FBI. The allegations surfaced in documents released Monday by the FBI in connection with the investigation into Clinton's private email practices.
