"SNIP.....

President Donald Trump‘s attorney Rudy Giuliani is the star of Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington’s (CREW) lawsuit filed on Monday in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia.

CREW said, citing the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), that the point of this action was to find the “source of the leak of information to Rudolph Giuliani in October 2016 that then-FBI Director James B. Comey was going to reopen the investigation into former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s use of personal email system.”

Some context:

On October 28, 2016, 11 days before the election, then-FBI Director Comey sent a letter to Congress announcing that the FBI was reopening its investigation into Hillary Clinton’s emails in light of new information found, but not yet examined by the FBI. Two days earlier, Mr. Giuliani, a prominent Trump supporter, telegraphed this announcement on Fox News, stating, “I do think that all of these revelations about Hillary Clinton are beginning to have an impact. He’s got a surprise or two that you’re going to hear about in the next two days.”Mr. Giuliani previously served as the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York, a position in which he worked closely with the FBI’s New York Field office. Mr. Giuliani subsequently admitted that he had received advanced notice of this development, stating on Fox News on November 4, 2016, “Did I hear about it?” You’re darn right I heard about it. And I can’t even repeat the language that I heard.”

CREW claims that the Department of Justice wasn’t responsive enough (“wrongfully withheld agency records”) to a FOIA request for more information on who leaked this information to Giuliani and is demanding immediate release of requested records in their entirety.

[dameatball]

2. Good. Been saying this for two years.

[lindysalsagal]

3. Rudy was all over tv blabbing that "it's gonna be big."

I remember thinking he shouldn't know that so someone's effing up royally.

[ffr]

4. K&R

This is big. From Mayor of America to conspired against the United States just that fast.

Traitor!

[watoos]

7. You bet,

ask the FDNY what they think of Ghouliani, they hate him.

[Freethinker65]

5. Yep. Inquiring minds have wanted to know that answer for a long time

I remember a clip of Rudy being really nervous when asked about it and his "friends at the FBI". He knew he should have kept his mouth shut...but like Trump he was too damn giddy to just wait.

6. Those NY FBI agents who were so virulently anti-Hillary should be exposed

and fired. Look how McCabe was treated.

[not fooled]

8. And Strzok

GOPee hypocrisy at its finest.

[FailureToCommunicate]

9. I would love, love love to see his ass go to jail.

Is there any chance that this could happen?

[BSdetect]

11. We may have to build a special jail for all the gop traitors.

[They_Live]

13. We can use Gitmo.

[BigmanPigman]

14. I would like them to go to Rikers Island.

That way they could see their beloved NYC from the prison yard and know they will never get the opportunity to step foot in Manhattan again. It would also be an extra special gift to the New Yorkers who have always HATED Giuliani and tRump.
