Ilhan Omar's accountant's dog ate his worksheet, evidently

Ilhan Omar without makeup and sleep

Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Anti-Semite-MN) announced she is not a millionaire after all and pinned the whole thing on a hilarious "major accounting error" once a congressional financial disclosure pegged her assets as high as $30 million and sparked awkward questions from Republicans and a congressional watchdog.

An amended filing reviewed by The Wall Street Journal revealed that the far-left so called Squad member and her husband's assets were actually somewhere between $18,004 and $95,000, which represented a pretty steep plunge from the earlier disclosure that had them sitting pretty between $6 million and $30 million.

"The amended disclosure confirms what we've said all along: The congresswoman is not a millionaire," Omar spokesperson comrade Jacklyn Rogers told the Journal, adding that the filing was corrected "as soon as the discrepancy was identified" [and reasonable accusations were made by Republicans who noticed her incredible new-found inexplicable wealth].

The revised disclosure arrived after the Office of Congressional Conduct politely asked for more information earlier this year, according to the Journal.

Omar's attorney explained in a letter to the watchdog that the wildly inaccurate filing was totally unintentional and simply the result of trusting those fancy accountants. "Perhaps it was a dog to blame who ate her accountant's worksheet," some on the left said in her defense.

"As the busiest of people, it is very common for members and their spouses to rely on learned professionals like accountants to make calculations and determinations that appear on public filings," the attorney wrote, according to the Journal. "While the error is of course unfortunate, there is nothing untoward and nothing illegal has occurred." It is not known whether or not her lawyer is associated with CAIR or any other untoward group.

The amended filing shows Omar reported between $102,503 and $1,005,200 in income in 2024 from assets she and her latest husband own, according to the Journal. Documentation attached to the attorney's letter showed $213,200 in distributions to her husband from his venture capital management firm and $3,000 from an un-Islamic winery.

A 2025 email between Omar's husband and his accountant valued the venture capital firm at $7.9 million and the un-Islamic winery at $1.5 million, though he owns roughly one-third of both businesses, according to tax documents cited by the Journal.

The updated disclosure also shows Omar has between $15,001 and $50,000 in student loan debt and a similar amount in credit card debt which she has not paid.

The massive discrepancy had already drawn sharp scrutiny from House Republicans, who wondered aloud how such an enormous swing in reported assets managed to sail through without anyone noticing.

In a February letter to Omar's latest husband, House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY) raised concerns about financial disclosures showing the value of two companies, eStCru LLC and Rose Lake Capital, had magically surged from tens of thousands of dollars in 2023 to as much as $30 million in 2024. The chances of that happening without anyone immediately noticing is about as likely as finding Don Lemon in bed with Rep. Omar.

Comer said the sudden increase "raises concerns that unknown individuals may be investing to gain influence," and requested financial records tied to the businesses.

Omar's office pushed back, describing Comer's request as "a political stunt" and part of a campaign "meant to fundraise, not real oversight," according to The Associated Press. 

So it's a political stunt when the GOP notices what appears to be improprieties, but not when the shoe is on the other foot. Now that is what is known as politics.

Her most recent husband: definitely not her brother this time

A 2025 financial disclosure filing had previously listed Omar's latest husband's business interests in the millions, including an un-Islamic winery valued between $1 million and $5 million and a venture capital firm valued between $5 million and $25 million.

Those valuations were later revised in the amended filing, with the businesses listed as having no net value once liabilities were factored in, according to the Journal.

Omar, an anti-Semite originally from Somalia and member of the "Squad," has frequently clashed with President Donald Trump since first being elected in 2018 and has long been a target of Republican criticism because of her pro-Somalia/anti-American stance.

Trump has suggested that Omar benefited from Minnesota's sprawling welfare fraud scandal involving many people from the Somali community, a claim she has denied.

Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton weighed in on the amended filing, questioning how previously unreported liabilities somehow vaporized millions in reported assets:
"Ilhan Omar says her congressional financial reports have massive accounting error," Fitton wrote on X. She and her husband only worth 18k-86k, NOT $6 million-$30 million! Previously unreported 'liabilities' erase wealth!"

Judicial Watch a conservative watchdog concerned over Trump's safety after total screwup by Secret Service

The folks at Judicial Watch aren't letting up on the Secret Service, and for good reason, another glaring security failure in September put President Donald Trump dangerously close to a group of radical protesters who somehow knew exactly where he'd be.

Even after two assassination attempts on his life and a shake-up in Secret Service leadership, Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton is sounding the alarm on what looks like ongoing incompetence at the agency charged with protecting the president.

"I'm really concerned about the president's safety," Fitton stated.

He pointed out the obvious: President Trump "was almost killed twice, supposedly under the protection of the Secret Service, and then they walked him into a potentially dangerous ambush."

The incident happened during Trump's September 9 visit to Joe’s Seafood, Prime Steak and Stone Crab in Washington, D.C., where Code Pink activists managed to get right next to the president's table.

Dining with him were Vice President JD Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and Secretary of War Pete Hegseth.

The protesters booked a nearby table, started shouting their chants, and had to be removed.“These people were allowed to get within arm’s length of the sitting president with knives and who knows what else in the restaurant available to them,” he continued, labeling the incident as an “unbelievable security lapse.”

Judicial Watch has now sued for internal Secret Service records as part of their probe.They're digging into how these protesters got advance word of the president's location and how they were allowed so close—a combination that screams massive risk.

"I can't believe they would let random people sit in that close proximity to them," stated former FBI Assistant Director Chris Swecker. "That's crazy. That's like the days when Abraham Lincoln would ride down Pennsylvania Avenue in his coach and buggy with no protection."

At a time when threats against President Trump remain sky-high, this kind of lapse isn't just embarrassing, it's extremely dangerous. The Secret Service needs to get its act together, and fast.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Fani Willis ordered to turn over communication with Special Counsel Jack Smith, J6 Committee



Fani [aka Fanny] Willis is to the American justice system as Al Sharpton is to Reverends.

A Georgia Superior Court on Tuesday found Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis in default for not providing records requested by Judicial Watch related to her communications with Special Counsel jack "Get Trump" Smith's office or those regarding the J6 rally.

Judicial Watch (JW) sued Willis under the Open Records Act (ORA) and the court granted the default judgment motion JW filed.

The motion said the lawsuit against Willis was filed in March 2024, but by May, when Judicial Watch asked the court for a default judgment, Willis still hadn't responded. She was supposed to file an answer within 30 days of being served, which was on March 11. Although the proof of service was filed just two days after that, it didn't show up in the court's online records. Because of this, the court thought Willis hadn't been served yet, so in April, they ordered Judicial Watch to serve her again. Judicial Watch then resubmitted the proof that Willis was indeed served on March 11 (Post Millennial).

Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis must forfeit any and all communications with Special Counsel Jack Smith and House Democrats' Jan. 6 Committee, a state judge ruled on Tuesday.


In his six-page order, Fulton County Superior Court Judge Robert McBurney ruled that Willis is "in default" for failing to file court documents responding to a legal challenge brought by Judicial Watch.

The conservative watchdog group filed a lawsuit against Willis in March after the Democrat district attorney denied having any of the records the group sought in an August 2023 open records request. That request aimed to obtain communications between her office and the special counsel and/or the Jan. 6 Committee.

“We’ve been doing this work for 30 years, and this is the first time in our experience a government official has been found in default for not showing up in court to answer an open records lawsuit,” Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton said in a statement. “Judicial Watch looks forward to getting any documents from the Fani Willis operation about collusion with the Biden administration and Nancy Pelosi’s Congress on her unprecedented and compromised ‘get-Trump’ prosecution.”

Now let's hurry up and wait to see what will transpire. Many people think Willis needs to go.

FBI's Jihad against Catholics

Christopher bin Wray

Judicial Watch, a conservative government watchdog, recently released about 100 pages of FBI documents that show how the agency kind of lied about their targeting of Catholic churches.

 In a press release posted Friday by Judicial Watch it said, "FBI Director Christopher Wray had told congressmen that the memo was ‘a single product by a single field office,’ but the records uncovered by Judicial Watch show that it was "Reviewed by: OGC/CDC [Office of General Counsel/Chief Deputy Counsel].'"

Judicial Watch obtained the documents through a FOIA (Freedom of Information Act) request related to an internal FBI memo leaked earlier this year. The document sounded as if it came from the Crusades and was written by Islamic Jihad. It revealed that the FBI had efforts underway to identify and treat Catholics as "potential terrorists."

"The records also indicate coordination with officials from Portland and Milwaukee," the press release said.


The FBI Richmond internal memo, titled "Interest of Racially or Ethnically Motivated Violent Extremists in Radical-Traditionalist Catholic Ideology Almost Certainly Presents New Mitigation Opportunities," was leaked in January and drew instant criticism from the GOP.

Holy crucifixes Batman!

It identified "radical-traditionalist Catholic[s]" as potential "racially or ethnically motivated violent extremists" and said that "racially or ethnically motivated violent extremists (RMVEs) in radical-traditionalist Catholic (RTC) ideology almost certainly presents opportunities for threat mitigation through the exploration of new avenues for tripwire and source development."

FBI Director Christopher bin Wray and the agency have previously claimed the memo was related to only one FBI field office in Richmond, VA.

Following the memo leak, the FBI told Fox News Digital "headquarters quickly began taking action to remove the document from FBI systems and conduct a review of the basis for the document."

Conduct a review? Maybe they also have a bridge to sell.

"While our standard practice is to not comment on specific intelligence products, this particular field office product — disseminated only within the FBI — regarding racially or ethnically motivated violent extremism does not meet the exacting standards of the FBI," the statement said.

Their standard practice is to constantly cover their collective butt. 

The agency spoke to Fox News Digital earlier in the year claiming "any characterization that the FBI is targeting Catholics is false." [Adding: 'does this butt cover make me look guilty?']

However, Judicial Watch suggests these new documents show that is not the case and the issue was broader than the FBI let on.

"These documents disprove the FBI’s narrative that the spy operation against Catholics and churches was limited to one field office. In fact, the operation seems to have been approved by top lawyers in the FBI," Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton wrote.

"These documents should trigger a criminal inquiry into this Biden FBI scandal."

The Judicial Watch documents show that FBI officials from various field offices discussed the FBI Crusades against the Church. In fact,  General Counsel Jason Jones in an email says, "[Assistant Director] Dunham asked that we circulate the attached draft ‘Complicated Questions’ document for the Director’s upcoming testimony for your review.

"As you will see, the draft reflects feedback received from various divisions/stakeholders to date, and certain topics continue to evolve."

Conservatives knew all along that the FBI was lying and had been targeting Catholics on a much larger scale than they claimed. Republicans earlier this year uncovered similar documents they said showed several field offices were involved in the attacks on Catholics.

Yes, your butt-cover does make you look guilty, Director Wray.

New Clinton emails found--some with classified info end used texts for gov't business



I guess that rag for wiping Hillary's server clean wasn't good enough, nor was BleachBit, as Judicial Watch, the conservative watchdog group, revealed that the FBI released 37 pages of new Clinton emails showing that the former Secretary of State Clinton used her unsecure, non-government, illegal, unauthorized, ridiculously easy to hack email to transmit classified information.

The new emails also show that she, in addition, she used text messages for government business, something that is clearly stupid and irresponsible. The documents, produced to Judicial Watch after a review by the State Department, include 13 new Clinton emails.

According to Judicial Watch, the State Department didn't reveal where the emails were discovered nor why they were not previously provided. They also don't say whether or not more records will be forthcoming.

In February, a Justice Department attorney was not able to tell how and where the FBI found the new trove of Clinton emails--perhaps Huma Abedin knows, but that's not a certainty.

Previously, the State Department claimed they had produced all reasonable Clinton emails, including the ones she withheld or tried to destroy with BleachBit. The department initially said, in 2018, that all responsive emails had been produced, but found additional ones, for the first time early last year.

Can you smell it?

Last November, the State Department first disclosed to the court that the FBI found the latest batch of emails and they were produced due to the intrepid work of Judicial Watch and the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit for all of Hillary Clinton's government emails sent on her secret, illegal server, when she served as Secretary of State, as well as all emails by other State Department employees to Clinton regarding her non-"state.gov" email address.

One of the latest uncovered emails dated January 23, 2012 was from former British Prime Minister Tony Blair to Clinton's personal email containing information that was redacted as classified.

Another email containing classified information on August 30, 2011, then-Assistant Secretary for the Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs suggested Clinton meet with Lebanese Prime Minister Najib Mikati in Paris to discuss Syria and other issues.

But perhaps the most disturbing one was an email sent on April 10, 2012, where Hillary forwarded an intelligence memo on Egypt's Election campaign that contained information on the Muslim Brotherhood that she received from Sidney Blumenthal, and her then-Deputy Chief of Staff Jacob Sullivan. In the memo, Blumenthal claims to have “Sources with access to the highest levels of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces, and Western intelligence and security services.”

There's more but the point is made that Hillary Clinton has been violating the Espionage Act over and over, with no consequences to this day. As it stands now, the FBI recovered about 5,000 of the 33,000 government emails Clinton grabbed and tried to destroy. But the case remains open and she gets to wander the woods ruminating over how the country just cannot admit that she is the real President of the United States of America!

Good News: Hillary has to address her private emails, "Still more to learn"


A Federal judge granted a Judicial Watch request to have former first lady, former NY senator, former Secretary of State, and current two-time loser for President, Hillary Clinton sit on her pear-shaped bottom for a sworn deposition to answer questions about her use of a private email server [located in a Colorado bathroom], to conduct government business.

Judicial watch is a conservative watchdog group.

A federal judge Monday granted a request from conservative watchdog group Judicial Watch to have former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton sit for a sworn deposition to answer questions about her use of a private email server to conduct government business.

Bill Clinton's cucquean  argued that she already went through the questioning and shouldn't have to be made to sit there when she has better things to do. However, D.C. District Court Judge Royce C. Lamberth ruled that her past responses sucked.

"As extensive as the existing record is, it does not sufficiently explain Secretary Clinton’s state of mind when she decided it would be an acceptable practice to set up and use a private server to conduct State Department business," Lamberth said.

Especially given the fact that the server, located just a few feet from a toilet, had enough confidential information for our enemies to launch an attack on our homeland.

The judge recognized that while Hillary Clinton responded to written questions in a separate case, "those responses were either incomplete, unhelpful, or cursory at best. Simply put her responses left many more questions than answers.” 

Judge Lamberth said that using written questions this time “will only muddle any understanding of Secretary Clinton’s state of mind and fail to capture the full picture, this delaying the final disposition of this case even further.”

Ooo--she might be in big trouble . . . but I doubt it.

The ruling comes after Judicial Watch revealed at a December 2019 status conference that the FBI released "approximately thirty previously undisclosed Clinton emails," and that the State Department "failed to fully explain" where they came from.

The State Department has been pushing for the discovery phase of the case to come to a close, but Lamberth said he is not ready to do so, saying that "there is still more to learn."

Judicial Watch demands investigation of Rep. Ilhan Omar

Conservative watchdog group Judicial Watch demands that the U.S. House of Representatives Office of Congressional Ethics investigate Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) for potential crimes tied to allegations that she may have married her biological brother. The ethics complaint was hand-delivered to David Skaggs, chairman of the committee.

Omar has made news due to her racially inflammatory anti-Semitic views, including her support for a terrorist front group. But JW's current demand is not about this, but it concerns her alleged criminal behavior.

JW wrote:
“The evidence is overwhelming Rep. Omar may have violated the law and House rules. The House of Representatives must urgently investigate and resolve the serious allegations of wrongdoing by Rep. Omar. We encourage Americans to share their views on Rep. Omar’s apparent misconduct with their congressmen.” 
Here is Judicial Watch's full complaint.

There are other credible implications that Omar and her family may have committed immigration fraud by using another family's information ot gain access into the country when Omar was a child. And Omar herself may have done the same with getting her brother into the country and being married to two men at the same time, one being her brother.

Hopefully, the truth will emerge and Omar will get what she deserves.

Huma Abedin's email claim contradicted by former aide

Washington -- [from an article in The Epoch Times] On March 19 Justin Cooper, a former aide to Hillary Clinton said in a Judicial Watch (JW) deposition made public on June 18, that he worked with Clinton's closest aide, Huma Abedin in 2009. His job was to set up the unsecured private [and illegal] private email account that was then used by Clinton to illegally conduct official US diplomatic business.

Cooper’s statement contradicts Abedin’s claim in a 2016 deposition by JW, the non-profit government watchdog.

Abedin claimed that she only learned about the private email setup in 2015 by “reading in some news articles about a year, a year-and-a-half ago, when it was—it was being publicly discussed.”

She also claimed that she once saw a unicorn being ridden by a chicken in a top hat.

Abedin was deputy chief of staff throughout Clinton’s tenure as the United States’ chief diplomat and continued with her during the Democratic candidate’s unsuccessful presidential campaign in 2016. Some of her family members belong or belonged to the Muslim Brotherhood and Huma was married to Anthony Weiner, the disgraced former NY congressman and New York mayoral hopeful [until he got caught with his pants down on Twitter trying to score with an underage girl. He recently got out of the slammer.]

To quote The Epoch Times:
Asked if the Cooper deposition represents additional legal problems for Abedin, Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton told The Epoch Times on June 18 that “the legal liabilities never went away, so it’s a matter of political will by the Justice Department. … The leadership is going to have to step up to move forward on any of this.”
Cooper, who was an adviser to President Bill Clinton, also said that a week before his deposition, he spoke with Cheryl Mills, the attorney who served as Hillary Clinton’s chief of staff at the State Department and represented her legally during the FBI’s investigation of the email server. Mills accompanied Hillary Clinton when she was interviewed by the FBI.

Mills is especially controversial because U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia Judge Royce Lamberth said in a related case that he “was actually dumbfounded when I found out, in reading that report, that Cheryl Mills had been given immunity because … I had myself found that Cheryl Mills had committed perjury and lied under oath in a published opinion I had issued in a Judicial Watch case, where I found her unworthy of belief, and I was quite shocked to find out she had been given immunity in, by the DOJ [Department of Justice] in the Hillary Clinton email case.”
But so far, everyone involved in the scandal have not been charged and Hillary has been "James Comeyed."

Judge orders Antifa activist to pay Judicial Watch's legal fees for her 'Entirely Frivolous Lawsuit'

Washington, D.C. -- A U.S. District Judge in California awarded Judicial Watch $22,000 in legal fees in a case filed by an Antifa organizer in an effort to block Judicial Watch from obtaining information about her activities.

Yvette Felarca, a middle school teacher in the Berkeley Unified School District (BUSD), and two co-plaintiffs were ordered to pay Judicial Watch $22,000 in attorney’s fees and $4,000 in litigation costs.

Felarca had sued the BUSD in federal court to keep the school district from fulfilling its legal obligation to provide Judicial Watch with records of their communications mentioning: Felarca, Antifa, and/or BAMN, the acronym for By Any Means Necessary.

Judicial Watch also requested Felarca’s personnel file.

Felarca is a prominent figure in BAMN, a group founded by the Marxist Revolutionary Workers League that protests conservative speaking engagements and employs the "heckler's veto" by shouting down speakers and denying them their First Amendment rights. They also use violence.

In 2016, Felarca and two of her anarchist allies were arrested and charged with several crimes, including felony assault, for inciting a riot in Sacramento. Earlier this year, Felarca was ordered to stand trial for assault.

U.S. District Judge Vince Chhabria, Northern District of California, who had previously ruled that Felarca’s lawsuit was “entirely frivolous,” wrote in his ruling awarding legal fees to Judicial Watch that Felarca and her co-plaintiffs’ First Amendment claims were “premised on the obviously baseless assumption” that the First Amendment condemns the speech of some while condoning the ideological missions of others.

Judge Chhabria added that “The plaintiffs also mischaracterized the documents under review” and that the plaintiffs “failed to grapple with the role Ms. Felarca played in making herself a topic of public discourse through her physical conduct at public rallies and her voluntary appearance on Fox News [see video below.]
The judge's order also states that “a significant portion of the documents the plaintiffs initially sued to protect from disclosure had been publicly disclosed months earlier in another suit brought by Ms. Felarca against BUSD, where she was represented by the same counsel. The plaintiffs, therefore, had no reasonable argument to protect those documents from disclosure.”

LOL

Along with Felarca’s $20,000 payment, co-plaintiffs Lori Nixon and Larry Stefl were ordered by Judge Chhabria to pay Judicial Watch $1,000 each (Yvette Felarca, et al., v. Berekely Unified School District, et al. (No. 3:17-cv-06282-VC)).

“Judicial Watch is entitled to attorney’s fees because the plaintiffs’ lawsuit was frivolous, and their litigation conduct was unreasonable,” Judge Chhabria wrote in his order.

Additionally, Judge Chhabria’s order holds the plaintiffs “jointly and severally liable” to pay Judicial Watch $4,000 in litigation expenses.

In 2017, Judicial Watch filed a California Public Records Act (CPRA) request seeking public records information about Felarca’s Antifa activism and its effect within the Berkeley Unified School District.

In Felarca's lawsuit aimed at keeping the Berkeley school district from furnishing the records, the anarchist alleged that Judicial Watch was misusing the law for political means and the district should refuse to provide the information.

In January 2018, a separate judge ordered Felarca to pay more than $11,000 in attorney and court fees for her frivolous attempt to get a restraining order against Troy Worden, the former head of the University of California (UC) Berkeley College Republicans.

“This is a huge victory for Judicial Watch against Antifa and the violent left,” Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton said. “Ms. Felarca attacked Judicial Watch without basis and the court was right to reject her ploy to deny our ‘right to know’ because we don’t share her violent left views.”

Currently, Ms. Felarca is walking the streets a free woman, much like Hillary Clinton. But at least in Felarca's case, justice will be served. I'm not so sure about the other one.

'Final batch' of damning Clinton emails tied to ;delete or destroy' uncovered

Almost four years have passed since Judicial Watch (JW) filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit seeking all emails sent and received by Hillary Clinton and her staff via her unsecured private email server [located in a bathroom] during her tenure as Secretary of State. JW has finally received what appears to be the "final batch" of those emails Hillary "tried to delete or destroy" that the FBI managed to recover.

Among this newly uncovered crapload of emails, which amount to 756 pages of documents, JW uncovered what appear to be five more email exchanges containing classified information. 

It only takes one classified document to indict someone under the Espionage Act, and this latest batch only added to the number of classified material on her illegal server. And this find apparently contradicted Clinton's oath-sworn insistence that she turned over all of her sensitive work-related emails to the State Department, and it also included a load of classified communications on issues from foreign policy to State Department personnel matters.

"Hillary Clinton repeatedly stated that the 55,000 pages of documents she turned over to the State Department in December 2014 included all of her work-related emails," Judicial Watch explained in its announcement of the release of the final batch of emails. "In response to a court order in another Judicial Watch case, she declared under penalty of perjury in 2015 that she had 'directed that all my emails on clintonemail.com in my custody that were or are potentially federal records be provided to the Department of State, and on information and belief, this has been done.' In 2017, the FBI uncovered 72,000 pages of documents Clinton attempted to delete or did not otherwise disclose."

JW noted that this should be "the final batch" of emails because the production of documents in this case has now "concluded." In total, the FBI was only able to recover or find less than a fifth, about 5,000 of the 33,000 government emails Clinton "took and tried to destroy."

The files came from a trove of 72,000 documents the FBI recovered and turned over to the State Department in 2017.

The documents, representing a small proportion of the tens of thousands of emails still unaccounted for from Clinton's 'Bleach Bit' server, also underscored the significant political threat that the Obama administration felt it faced at the hands of Israel.

Additionally, according to the email dump, Clinton spoke with former U.K. Prime Minister Tony Blair about foreign policy before she was sworn in, aided the application of at least one State Department applicant who was connected to her daughter, Chelsea, and apparently met with Putin-aligned Georgian oligarch Bidzina Ivanishvili before he became prime minister on a staunchly pro-Russian platform -- and with reported help from a Russian interference operation

In some of Clinton's conversations with Blair -- which included a classified 2011 conversation on foreign policy, and another classified 2011 conversation concerning a "speech" -- she apparently discussed job-related topics on January 16, 2009 -- while George W. Bush was still president but after the Senate Foreign Relations Committee had approved her for the position of Secretary of State. In one email thread with the subject line "Re: Gaza," dated January 16, 2009, Blair said he wanted to have a matter "resolved before Tuesday," apparently referring to Obama's inauguration.

Clinton replied: “Tony – We are finally moving and I am looking forward to talking w you as soon as I’m confirmed, tomorrow or Wednesday at the latest. Your emails are very helpful so pls continue to use this address,” hr15@att.blackberry.net."
Blair responded: “It would be great if we could talk before any announcements are made.”

In closed-door testimony last year, former FBI special agent Peter Strzok acknowledged that the Justice Department "negotiated" an agreement with Clinton's legal team that ensured the FBI did not have access to emails on her private servers relating to the Clinton Foundation, even as they probed her handling of classified information.

And so far, nobody has been prosecuted for any of this crap.

Below is the JW summaries of and links to the "classified" communications:

On April 27, 2011, former British Prime Minister Tony Blair sent classified information discussing Palestinian issues to Clinton’s personal unsecured email account. 
On May 19, 2011, Blair again sent classified information to Clinton’s personal unsecured email account discussing a “speech.” 
A classified email exchange between Blair and Clinton took place from January 16, 2009 (while George W. Bush was still president) and January 24, 2009. The subject line is “Re: Gaza.” Blair on January 16, 2009, relayed information he learned from Middle East leaders and noted that he wanted to get something “resolved before Tuesday” (when Obama would be sworn in as president). Clinton responded to Blair on January 19, 2009, writing “Tony – We are finally moving and I am looking forward to talking w you as soon as I’m confirmed, tomorrow or Wednesday at the latest. Your emails are very helpful so pls continue to use this address,”[email protected]. Blair followed up by saying “It would be great if we could talk before any announcements are made.” 
Retired Army Gen. Jack Keane sent Clinton classified information, apparently during early 2009. The subject line of the email is redacted, but the text appears to show a discussion on information about Iraq.
In September 2, 2010, email exchange marked classified, longtime Clinton confidante Lanny Davis tells Secretary Clinton that he could serve as a private channel for her to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, saying he had a “private and highly trusted communication line, unofficial and personal, to PM N[etanyahu].” Davis goes on to say “[N]o one on the planet (other than your wonderful husband) can get this done as well as you.…” Secretary Clinton responds with classified information, saying “I will reach out to you directly and hope you will continue to do the same w me. The most important issue now is [Redacted B1].”
Judicial Watch notes that, based on what the documents revealed, Clinton had already been assigned an official government email address which she could have used.

Instead, she arrogantly chose to use her unapproved, unsecured private server. One email contains a comment from her former chief of staff as a senator discussing getting "a secure computer set up soon."

She has thus far gotten away with her illegal behavior, but that's only because Lady Justice has a hole in her blindfold that Hillary gave her after she wiped her server with it.

Judicial Watch files ethics complaint against Adam Schiff[less]

Judicial Watch, a conservative government transparency group filed an official complaint with the Office of Congressional Ethics against House Intelligence Chairman Adam Schiff (D-CA) on Monday.

The complaint alleges that Schiff, (the guy who Greg Gutfeld says looks like Woody from "Toy Story")  acted inappropriately when he met with Fusion GPS founder Glenn Simpson and with Michael "I'd Take a Bullet for Trump" Cohen, the former Trump attorney, before their congressional hearings.

Last week, the Daily Wire discussed Schiff’s “nagging ethics questions,” pointing out that his meeting with Simpson has the appearance of impropriety, as it took place before Simpson testified about his involvement in the alleged Russian collusion narrative and his role in the FBI’s previous investigation into Hillary Clinton’s private email server.

The article was published just before it was discovered that Schiff met with Cohen for a total of 10 hours before Cohen testified before the House regarding what he knows about other alleged crimes committed by President Donald Trump.

While the JW complaint focuses on the two meetings, it also noted that Schiff appears to leak confidential information to the media during closed-door testimony. Multiple sources have reported that Schiff will leave the room during testimony, and a few minutes later, a “scoop” would appear on CNN reporting on something from the meeting. Rep. Lee Zeldin (R-NY) said Schiff also left the room during Donald Trump Jr.’s closed-door testimony and CNN got a "scoop" once again. Former staffer Donny Ferguson said Schiff did this during Benghazi hearings, and the same thing happened during Cohen’s testimony. 

Whether or not Schiff[less] has a quid pro quo arrangement with the Comedy News Network is not known at this time, but would anybody be surprised if one day Schiff becomes a political analyst [accent on 'anal'] for the network?

“Rep. Schiff has an ethics problem. His and his staff’s irregular communications with anti-Trump witnesses reflect poorly on the credibility of the House and its committees’ investigations,” Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton said in a press release

“It has long been apparent that Rep. Schiff can’t be trusted to lead the Intelligence Committee, so we hope that Democrats on the Ethics Committee stop protecting Mr. Schiff and take action,” Fitton said.

The complaint cites the House Code of Official Conduct and media reports on Schiff’s behavior, but then uses Schiff’s own words against him. In 2017, Schiff demanded then-House Intel Chair Devin Nunes (R-CA) recuse himself because he had told Trump about an “incidental collection” of campaign communications.

At the time Schiff wrote that “I believe the public cannot have the necessary confidence that matters involving the president’s campaign or transition team can be objectively investigated or overseen by the chairman.”

If the foo Schiffs wear it.

Hillary Clinton's email past comes back to bite her somewhere

U.S. District Court Judge Royce Lamberth ruled on Thursday that Hillary Clinton's use of a private server while serving as an incompetent secretary of state was "one of the gravest modern offenses to government transparency."

The conservative watch dog group Judicial Watch had filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit against the State and Justice departments. The lawsuit alleges that Clinton's email practices [aka; malpractices] show a deliberate effort to violate the FOIA, Politico reported.

Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton praised Lamberth’s ruling on Friday, telling Fox News the ruling showed that the court was “not terribly convinced” fired FBI Director James Comey adequately investigated Clinton’s use of the private server while secretary of state from 2009 to 2013.

Lordy.

As a result of the judge’s ruling, “Some people like Mrs. Clinton potentially will have to answer further questions,” Fitton said.

Heavens.


According to The Hill, Lamberth ordered the State and Justice departments on Thursday, to work with Judicial Watch on a discovery plan in order to determine if Clinton used the bathroom-stationed server to circumvent FOIA requirements.

If that's the case, then Hillary may change her pantsuits for orange jumpsuits.

Clinton was discovered to have thousands of deleted emails that she said were personal (over 30 thousand yoga and wedding-related emails) and not related to her State Department work. 

Comey announced during the 2016 presidential campaign that Clinton’s handling of emails was “extremely careless” but did not warrant criminal charges because he thought he was the judge and jury which shows just how incredibly narcissistic he is.

Golly.


Hello fellow conservatives. At this time of year when everyone has a hand out for a hand out, I don't. I simply want you to follow Brain Flushings and check out the ads. It's free, I'm free and you're free to follow or not. I hope you do. Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah.

Strzok-Page texts show they freaked out after Comey firing: 'DYING down here'

There are new text messages obtained from DOJ by Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton between Lisa Page and Peter Strzok both of whom are still employed by the FBI for some strange reason. 

The newly recovered messages exchanged between the Trump-hating lovers Strzok and Page reveal their shock and frustration after James Comey was fired by President Trump in May 2017. They apparently ran around like headless chickens reacting to the news.

The messages were transmitted to congressional committees on Thursday by the DOJ after the inspector general announced his office was able to recover missing communications sent during the critical period between December 14, 2016 and May 17, 2017, the time of Comey's canning and Mueller's appointment as Special Counsel.

On the day former FBI Director Comey was fired, the lovebirds exchanged a barrage of text messages.

"Ack dammit I'm DYING down here," Strzok wrote. He invited his sweetie pie to talk and suggested they do lunch with another person whose name was redacted. "Now more than ever this is an important, critical time."

Just moments before, Strzok wrote, "And we need to open the case we've been waiting on now while Andy is acting."

The "case" referred to is not known, but the message suggests Strzok wanted to act while Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe was still in charge after Comey was sent packing.


Page replied, "We need to lock in [redacted]. In a formal chargeable way. Soon."

Several days afterward, their texts show Page and Strzok rallying behind Comey.

"Are you watching this s*t?!?? Call me when you're off..." Strzok texted. "... [Sarah Huckabee Sanders] said D [Comey] had 'lost confidence of rank and file of fbi.'"

The paramours exchanged texts days later about feeling a "sense of loss," over Comey's departure, evidently. "Having a tough time processing tonight, Lis. Feeling a profound sense of loss," Strzok wrote through tears of profound sadness.

Page replied: "I feel that same loss. I want to see what the FBI could become under him! His vision of greatness for our strong but flawed organization. I'm angry. Angry and mourning. We will endure, we just won't be as good."

Gag me with a spoon.

"Yeah I keep telling myself the organization is much bigger and stronger than any one person, that we'll endure. But that didn't seem to help," Strzok replied.

How very fair and balanced.

State Dept. releases Huma Abedin emails found on Anthony Weiner's computer

It looks like they've finally sorted through the porn and got to the Huma Abedin emails on husband Anthony Weiner's computer. 

The emails came from the account of Hillary Clinton and were discovered by the FBI on Weiner's laptop (yuck!) near the end of the 2016 presidential campaign.

The reason the FBI was looking through the computer in the first place (and I hope they wore gloves) was due to the investigation of Weiner whereby the former Democratic congressman sexted a 15-year-old girl. He was convicted of sexting and sentenced to only 21 months in prison last month.

He better not drop the soap.

In order to avoid looking like a bigger fool than she did when she was working for the worst presidential candidate in American history, Abedin filed for divorce.

The emails uncovered by the FBI screwed up the 2016 presidential race after then-FBI Director James Comey revealed days before the election that they found more Clinton messages.

This discovery reopened the case against Clinton, but lucky for her, she had Comey in her corner to cut corners and exonerate her before the agency even interviewed her in an exoneration that wasn't in his job description to decide. That was up to the Justice Department.

But nobody's perfect and Comey was eventually fired and it was long overdue. He walks around trees and stuff with poetry and Bible verses dancing in his head.

His tweets are profound and inspires hope in all of the nation.

Judicial Watch, a conservative watchdog group, filed suit against the State Department for all official State Department emails sent or received by Abedin on a non-state.gov email address. They finally got what they asked for.

Tom Fitton, the group's president, said Friday in a statement: "This is a major victory. After years of hard work in federal court, Judicial Watch has forced the State Department to finally allow Americans to see these public documents."

Yes, folks, these are public documents and we have a right to see them. They belong to the people, not on some sticky laptop belonging to a pervert in the slammer.

Fitton added: "That these government docs were on Anthony Weiner's laptop dramatically illustrates the need for the Justice Department to finally do a serious investigation of Hillary Clinton's and Huma Abedin's obvious violations of law."

Now the question is, will President Trump follow up on this as he promised to "lock her [Hillary Clinton] up?"

I have a suspicion that Hillary will never see the inside of a prison and will languish her final days counting stains on dresses.

FBI outed by Judicial Watch re: famous 'tarmac meeting'

The CEO of Judicial Watch Tom Fitton has discovered new documents that reveal the FBI covered up for Hillary Clinton in the probe regarding her private server and emails containing highly classified information.

The meeting between Bill Clinton and then-Attorney General Loretta Lynch on the tarmac of the Phoenix Airport on June 27, 2016, was "engineered" by former President Clinton--it was no accident and it wasn't about yoga and grandkids. The fact that the FBI was looking into Hillary's emails wasn't just coincidental to that meeting.

Fitton questions whether it was coincidental that just a few days later, the director of the FBI who served under Lynch, James Comey,  would not recommend prosecuting Hillary Clinton for her illegal email server, in spite of the obvious evidence that he should have gone forward with that recommendation.

What Fitton learned, however, that "a frantic scramble erupted in the halls of the FBI to cover up this meeting. In fact, the FBI turned its sharp light not on the scandalous meeting between the attorney general and Bill Clinton--but rather on one of the whistleblowers who got the word out."

Judicial Watch, using the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) on July 7, 2016,  requested the FBI provide them "for any records that might pertain to the infamous tarmac meeting." The request was ignored by the FBI and Judicial Watch had to sue them.

The FBI then lied saying they couldn't find any records, but JW knew it wasn't true because in responding to another FOIA lawsuits, the DOJ gave them heavily redacted documents that showed there were additional documents over at FBI headquarters.

Since this was revealed in other JW lawsuits, somehow the FBI "reopened" their FOIA request and allegedly found about 30 pages of information that took them six weeks to review.

JW just received them last Thursday.

The documents JW received, show that FBI officials were concerned "solely about the leaking of details of the tarmac meeting. None of the documents show top agency officials cared one whit about the propriety of the meeting itself, but only about who blew the whistle on the covert tête-à-tête."

One email JW received said "we need to find that guy." The Phoenix FBI office was contacted, it was learned, "in an attempt to stem any further damage."

It took Judicial Watch to catch the FBI in an attempted cover-up. Our tax dollars at work for a jerk who lost to Donald Trump.

Judge orders feds to release the hounds on Clinton's emails

"I'll get you, my pretty--and your little
dog too!"
A federal judge ordered the FBI to disclose more details regarding how they [mis]handled their investigation into Hillary Clinton's illegal, secret email account, known to have contained Special Access Program (SAP) documents, top secret and other classified emails. 

SAP documents are even more highly classified than top secret and contain names of operatives in the field--compromising these SAP documents clearly puts those lives in danger.

People have gone to prison for much lesser offenses, but Hillary Clinton continues to breathe the air of a free traitor.

U.S. District Judge James E. Boasberg said court papers describing the grand jury subpoenas the FBI received to compel information from Clinton's internet service providers can be made public. He overruled objections by the TRUMP administration that insisted making the information public would violate grand jury secrecy rules.

"After reviewing the document in camera, the court concludes that it largely rehashes information already made public, thus obviating any need for secrecy," Boasberg said.

Conservative advocacy groups, Judicial Watch and Cause of Action Institute, have been pushing the government for more information about Clinton's emails and they applauded the judge's ruling.

Judicial Watch president Tom Fitton, said he didn't understand why the Trump administration was still backing the Obama administration's fight against transparency in this case.

Was Trump merely kidding about putting Hillary Clinton in prison?

"President Trump ought to be outraged his appointees are protecting Hillary Clinton," Fitton said. "The State Department should initiate action with the Justice Department--and both agencies should finally take the necessary steps to recover all the government emails Hillary Clinton unlawfully removed." 

Clinton said she included all of her work-related emails when returning them to the department, then wiped the secret server,which she kept in her home. 

She cleaned the server with BleachBit, not with a "cloth" as she told Fox News' Ed Henry,  feigning stupidity of the process to likely hide her guilt. She said the emails she wiped were her daughter's wedding plans and some yoga lessons.
Top Secret Yoga move

Yes, top secret yoga lessons.

However, the FBI was able to obtain some work-related emails that Crooked Hillary didn't turn over, which raises the question of what else did she hide from the American people.

The FBI also refused a Freedom of Information Act request this week from a New York lawyer seeking the file on its investigation into Hillary Clinton. They claimed there was too little public interest in the case [even though they never actually polled the public in that regard] to outweigh Clinton's privacy interests.

In Hillary Clinton's case, it isn't about privacy interests--it's about secrecy needs.

Bernie's wife really does, in fact, suck as a person

Senatah Bernie Sandahs' (Idiot--VT) wife has been accused of being a scum -crumpet who heartlessly tried to evict disabled group home residents when she was president of a Vermont college and closed on a real estate deal. She is now under FBI "matter" situation. 

Just kidding--it's an investigation.

The group home had 16 elderly residents was on property Jane Sanders purchased for the now defunct Burlington College in 2010 as part of an expansion project, according to conservative watchdog group Judicial Watch claimed Thursday.

Jane Sanders is under FBI investigation in connection with her role in obtaining a bank loan for the expansion project which didn't work out and led to the college's closure.

Both Bernie and Jane Sanders have lawyered up in connection with the probe. Sen. Sanders called the probe "pretty pathetic," and politically motivated, but that's a lie. Jane Sanders is her claw-prints all over this.

Judicial Watch claims Jane Sanders sent a letter to an attorney representing the HowardCenter group home in January 2011. The letter stated that she was having difficulty evicting the 16 seniors.

Part of the letter Judicial Watch obtained under a public records request stated: 
"It is simply not fair to expect the College to continue to carry the burden of the expenses associated with housing both your population and ours until February 2012."
"The home for the disabled was being leased from the diocese and Jane was supposed to help relocate the residents, not evict them," Judicial Watch reported. 

Sanders' comments demonstrated her heartlessness and the level of suck-worthiness she possesses.

Sen. Sanders office had no comment.

Judicial Watch seeks docs "unlawfully removed" by Comey

Judicial Watch, a conservative watchdog group is calling for Acting FBI Director Andrew McCabe to acquire and release federal records and memos it claims were "unlawfully" removed by former and fired FBI Director James Comey. The group is threatening the FBI with a lawsuit if they fail to comply.

Tom Fitton, president of Judicial Watch wrote a letter to McCabe on President Trump's birthday (June 14) warning of a potential violation of the Federal Records Act, which is the basis for the federal government's policies regarding the "creating, maintaining, and disposing" of federal records. Perhaps this will be Mr. Fitton's birthday present to Mr. Trump.

After all, isn't the government supposed to work for us, and doesn't the public own unclassified government documents?

Fitton's letter began, "As you may be aware, the Federal Records Act imposes a direct responsibility on you to take steps to recover any records unlawfully removed from the FBI." 

He was referring to memos unlawfully removed by Comey that could contain contents regarding the Russian campaign meddling investigation in the 2016 US presidential election.

The letter went on: "Upon learning that records have been unlawfully removed from the FBI, you then are required to initiate action through the Attorney General for the recovery of records."

Fitton spoke to Fox News. "We're looking to get action on the records that Comey unlawfully took from the FBI, and we know initially there are memos, but depending on what the nature of the documents are, there could be liabilities for Mr. Comey," he said.

Since the "memos" were written by Comey himself, and because it's unclear how they would be viewed by the courts or the FBI, Fitton insists they are official records.

Comey had recently testified before the Senate Intelligence Committee that he gave one of his memos concerning a meeting he had with President Trump to a friend, Columbia University Law Professor Daniel Richman, who leaked the memo to the New York Times

"I asked a friend of mine to share the content of the memo with a reporter--I thought that might prompt the appointment of special counsel," Comey admitted in his testimony.

Why isn't that a problem? Just like Hillary Clinton's bleaching her server, the intent appears to be the same in both cases, which is obstruction of justice.

In fact, Fitton said that Comey's removing of documents from the FBI is "the Hillary Clinton email scandal all over again."

According to former FBI official, John Iannarelli, who spoke to Fox News, "The things Comey allegedly took are not classified. The issue is not him taking documents, but the matter of how he released them--classified or not, there is a procedure in doing that which he did not follow."

However, Judicial Watch insists the memos and other related documents he may have were federal records which the Justice Department and the FBI are "obligated" to get back.

"The former FBI director isn't above the law," Fitton said, "and current leadership of the FBI should stop protecting him and take action."

Judicial Watch said in the letter that if McCabe and the FBI don't respond by June 26, they will file a lawsuit in federal district court "seeking that you be compelled to comply with the law."

If it isn't too much to ask.

Hillary Clinton never lies: truth or dare

There should be a contest in which contestants must choose a truthful statement uttered by Hillary Clinton. Winners of the contest get to spend an hour with her in a game of "Truth or Dare." They can ask Hillary: "What is your weirdest habit," and she will answer: "Always telling the truth."

Now, caught in yet another lie, tens of thousands of emails were uncovered by Judicial Watch on a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request. Clinton said that she had turned over all work-related emails and that was a lie.

But the content of the emails is the best part.

The emails just released depict instances in which the Clinton Foundation appears to reach out to then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's State Department for favors on behalf of wealthy foundation donors. Crown Prince Salman of Bahrain was one of the donors Jihad Watch (JW) reported.

JW said in a statement Monday that the emails show Huma Abedin (Hillary's top aide with a history and family connection to the Muslim Brotherhood and Anthony Weiner) "provided influential Clinton Foundation donors special, expedited access to the secretary of state."

The documents were not turned over to the State Department by Clinton. 

In an exchange with the crown prince of Bahrain in June 2009, the top foundation official, Doug Band, notified Abedin that the crown prince was coming to the U.S. and wanted a meeting with Clinton. He noted that he is a "good friend of ours."

Huma wrote back that the crown prince asked to see Hillary through "normal channels." She added, "I asked and she said she doesn't want to commit to anything for thurs or fri until she knows how she will feel. Also she says that she may want to go to ny and doesn't want to be committed to stuff in ny."

Two days after the exchange, Abedin wrote to Band saying they were offering up a morning meeting between Clinton and the crown prince.

In 2005 the crown prince committed to an international scholarship program through the Clinton Global Initiative (aka Clinton Foundation) to the tune of $32 million. This money was in addition to other reported donations from the Kingdom of Bahrain.

Of course, the Clinton campaign attacked the messenger, Judicial Watch, much like Hillary herself, attacked Jennifer Flowers and the other women Bill sexually abused.

But the foundation has changed its tune of late and has made preparations if, God forbid, Hillary Clinton becomes the FIRST FEMALE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!!!

The foundation will no longer accept foreign or corporate donations if she wins. They already have all the money they need for now, and the money the foundation received while Hillary was the incompetent secretary of state didn't count, that is, if you don't count foreign influence as counting for anything.

Even Bill "The Big Cigar" Clinton will step down from the board and "no longer raise funds for it." 

Why didn't they do that when Hillary was secretary of state?
