But those analogies come
immediately to mind following two revelations regarding our Federal
Bureau of Investigation that surfaced this week. In one instance, the
FBI refused to turn over documents regarding the Hillary Clinton emails
because of -- wait for it -- "lack of public interest."
The head of the FBI Records Management Division wrote Ty Clevenger, a New York Attorney who filed the FOIA request in March 2016, to inform him that his request was being denied in late August.“You have not sufficiently demonstrated that the public’s interest in disclosure outweighs personal privacy interests of the subject,” the letter, obtained by Fox News, reads. “Therefore, records regarding your subject are withheld pursuant to FOIA exemptions.”
It's hard
to imagine what was going on in the mind of Records Management Division
head David M. Hardy when he wrote -- or was forced to write by some
unknown superior -- such a risible lie, but things have only gotten
worse from there. Now we learn that then FBI director James Comey may never have planned to find Clinton guilty in the first place.
