>House Oversight Committee Chairman Jason Chaffetz said today that the FBI had decided to withhold documents, including memos, notes, summaries, and recordings, requested by his committee in regards to the ongoing Russia probe. This was revealed in a letter sent by Chaffetz to the FBI responding to the agency’s decision to withhold documents requested by the Committee on May 16, 2017.
wait how? any lawfags can explain on what possible grounds they can do that? maybe it's in the article but it wasn't archived so...
Ethan Nelson
Chaffetz and his bitching
Daniel Cox
If they do exist Mueller's investigation takes precedence.
Jaxon Davis
AHAHAHAHA....wait wait. AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
David Ward
>zerohedge
Any credible sources?
Jace Rodriguez
More credible than CNN at least.
Christian Adams
I thought Chaffetz had authority to subpoena the FBI for items personally?
Jaxon Evans
You realize OP you need to archive the article, otherwise this entire site will be spammed with random clickbait threads. This goes for all boards on Sup Forums. Stop being a dick.
Carter Lewis
Correct. They need more time to fabricate convincing memos.
Dylan Edwards
trump's operatives are in FULL FREAK OUT
trying to slow walk the trump russia probe on all fronts
taking the 5th LEFT AND RIGHT.. only guilty people take the 5th..and the mob. I'm sure comey's got copies anyways. DRAINTHESWAMP
Asher Price
That's like saying less of a cuck than a swede
Robert Rivera
Also looks like Chavez is going to have to whip out the subpoena pronto.
Owen Reyes
Only thing Dems know how to do is bitch, cry and LARP.
Jordan Nguyen
ZeroHedge is literally the least credible website on the internet.
Samuel Watson
this
the House Oversight Committee just 'needs' them to determine whether or not it's worth taking an impeachment action on them
and the House is already asking for a vote for impeachment over obstruction of justice so
special counsel takes precedent
John Smith
The FBI can't even produce Russian hacking evidence even after 10 months.
David Ortiz
the evidence is when the website run by the guy whose literal life depends on the Russian government letting him stay in the country dropped a ton of """""leaks""""". COMRADE.
Juan Parker
The memos were fake news all along.
5-d chess would be for Trump to fire the highest ranking FBI person each day for insubordination until the FBI complies with congress. I suspect that the FBI would be led by a GS-5 by Christmas.
Jaxson Ortiz
>5-d chess would be for Trump to fire the highest ranking FBI person each day for insubordination until the FBI complies with congress. This
>I suspect that the FBI would be led by a GS-5 by Christmas. top notch senpai
Jackson Hall
>5-d chess would be for Trump to fire the highest ranking FBI person each day for insubordination until the FBI complies with congress. that's literally worthy of rebellion. I wish he would, I've always wanted to /k/ a billionaire.
You fascists don't really GROK how America works, do you? You really ought to all move to Russia, it seems way more like how you think the world should work.
Ryan Morris
dude, they've been doing this shit for years. this is why its all a dog and pony show. Congress technically could arrest every bureaucrat at the FBI, but they won't.
so nothing is going to happen, like always.
Kevin Ramirez
wat
Thomas Brown
Comey has been a Clinton shill since the 90's. This comes as no surprise. His entire career is based on erasing the Clinton family's crimes.
Oliver Wright
>assange >in russia.
nice work faggot.
Ayden Allen
always assume everyone on the internet is a Russian shill until proven otherwise
this goes double for Sup Forums and sextuple for Sup Forums
>Comey has been a Clinton shill since the 90's. That's why he sabotaged her campaign, right?
Wyatt Harris
Good or bad? I'm guessing bad
Zachary Hughes
>Gs-5 leading the FBI
jokes on you. I put in my neet resume for FBI director literally seconds after he fired comey. It'll be run by me you'll see
Aiden White
If Comey has the memo that says what the MSM claims it says then Comey is going to jail FOR SURE. It would then fall on the DOJ wether or not they wanted to proceed against Trump.
Michael Gomez
>spoils system is worthy of rebellion
who would have thought.
Caleb Evans
>That's why he sabotaged her campaign, right? Nobody ever said anything about him being intelligent, literally Federal Bureau of Incompetence at this point.
Jack Sullivan
FUCKING SCAM ARTISTS COMEY AND MCCABE HAD US GOING REAL GOOD THERE FOR A WHILE ASSHOLES YOU DUMB FUCKING IDIOTS
Alexander Roberts
STILL more credible than CNN.
Oliver Green
DRUMPF IS FINISHED ITS OVER FOR HIM
Samuel Bennett
ARE YOU TELLING ME THERE ARE NO UNNAMED SOURCES?!!??! LISTEN YOU NIGGERS THEY KNOW THERE IS NO COLLUSION WHEN THEY TWEET THEY THINK THERE IS THEY ARE LYING. YOU ALREADY KNOW THAT SO WHY DO THEY DO IT, YOU STUPID NIGGERS BECAUSE THIS IS AN ASYM WAR YOU STUPID NIGGERS BECAUSE THEY ARE TYING UP RESOURCES THAT WOULD BE DRAINING THE SWAMP YOU GODAWFUL AND DUMB NIGGERS
Isaac Wright
You're a fruit cake. He got bill off the hook. Silenced investigations for years. As a civilian got sweet sweet bank money for that shit bank in Britain that laundered cash for terror. Then he came back as fbi director and just take a step back and FUCK YOUR OWN FACE!
Blake Ramirez
>BECAUSE THEY ARE TYING UP RESOURCES THAT WOULD BE DRAINING THE SWAMP YOU GODAWFUL AND DUMB NIGGERS
Don't you have a country to burn and loot, Mr. Gyro?
Ethan James
>that's why he sabotaged her campaign. Wait wait wait.... Hillary was using Comey's personal server while she was Secretary of State?!?!?!?
Luis Wilson
>That's why he sabotaged her campaign, right? He was forced to act because Loretta Lynch and Bill were caught on a camera privately meeting on a plane.
If Hillary had won, Comey would be considered a political obstacle that she overcame. Democrats would say "Comey, a REPUBLICAN, couldn't find any wrongdoing and he even said bad stuff about her!"
Remember, Comey cleared her of all charges and dismissed the case. Nothing else matters.
Evan Anderson
>In a letter to Oversight Chairman Jason Chaffetz (R-Utah), the FBI’s assistant director for congressional affairs, Gregory Brower, said the bureau can’t provide the memo until it consults with Robert Mueller, the new special counsel overseeing the investigation into Russia’s election meddling.
>In light of Mueller’s appointment “and other considerations,” Brower wrote, “we are undertaking appropriate consultation to ensure all relevant interests implicated by your request are properly evaluated.” Brower pledged to update the Oversight panel “as soon as possible.”
>I looked in catalog but didn't see anything. ya done good redditboy
Elijah Rogers
No really. You're a fucking bot.
Elijah Garcia
What if I'm just a whippersnapper?
Matthew Turner
Don't you get it? This literally proves that Trump is a Russian shill. A source close to an associate who's familiar with the way Comey's mind works confirms it. The NYT was in a conference call with a source who read a quick summary of what this source, who's close to an associate and if has a pretty good idea of what Comey was thinking when he jotted this memo down. Don't you see? You're all being played by the orange menace. It'll all come to light soon, we have sources who are familiar with Comey's thinking everywhere.
Nicholas Campbell
>snowden patriot >assange putin shill..lock em up
John Cox
but the FBI literally cannot withhold anything from congress. isn't that how it works?
Cameron Howard
>3 different threads, 3 days in a row either a bot or actually doing god's work either way wtf I love Norway now so they are going to release them, just taking their time.
Anthony Peterson
Comey was deputy special counsel for the Senate committee during the whitwater scandal, dumb ass. Hillarys "investigation" was supposed to exonerate her and make trump look bad but back fired. Either youre a real lefty who doesnt know shit about the clintons or youre a paid shill who doesnt think we know history but either way youre btfo
Aaron Bennett
>Those digits >I always wanted to /k/ a billionaire
That's a death threat against the president.
Somebody from the US please report this terrorist faggot to the proper authorities for threatening to kill President Trump.
Thomas Morales
Well well well...(((they))) were first banking on the memos to sink President Trump, and now must have something incriminating to hide, why (((they))) are now refusing the memos.
Adam Williams
That's it!!! I'm reporting shareblue's blatant antisemitism to Fox News.
Charles Gonzalez
Cheeto Jesus BTFO
Luis James
Comey have something to hide in his memes?
Juan Edwards
Not looking good for Drumpf especially with Kushner under investigation
Aiden Cox
>This literally proves that Trump is a Russian shill if the FBI had any evidence like that they would've gone ahead with something ages ago. congress is only asking to see them, not for the FBI to give them their only copies
Logan Garcia
There are no (((memos))).
Comey's goons are making shit up to damage Trump. Comey thought he was untouchable and would serve his full term, but President Trump is a madman who doesn't take shit from Clinton shills.
Owen Gutierrez
Actually, President Trump having full control of the Executive Branch....can fire Mueller at any time, he does not have allow this. Congress can also fire Mueller too.
Hudson Morgan
he is - but anybody who thought this would be easy was very wrong - Bannon undertands this The CIA and FBI seem to be their own little bodies of gov't immune to everyone.
Jason Reed
What's 12x12 > - 2 plus 10?
Henry Taylor

Charles Perez
Checked. Everyone knows this to be true, just search your heart.
Jackson Lopez
Doubles checked
Noah Clark
"Thank you for coming and thanks to the media. I'm going to start this press conference by stating we let the murder suspect go, I will now take questions, over there.. yes you" "why did you let him go?" "he had a memo stating he wasn't there, next question... over there.. yeah you"
Hudson James
Is this some retarded bot fucking up a script or something?
Jaxon Hall
I'd like to know, what does a memo prove?
Charles Foster
A source close to me (my mom) confirmed that Putin hacked the 2016 presidential election.
Nicholas Carter
Give to CNN, I am sure they will run it for weeks
Gavin Barnes
Absolutely nothing. Even if it was real it's just garbage.
Carson Brown
Nothing really. But you know anything to keep satisfying the hate that's in the hearts of the anti-trumpers.
Carson Reyes
Imagine if the Russia headline lasts 8 years
Juan Green
Nah, it was a last minute desperate attempt to convince voters she had done nothing wrong.
The DNC was expecting a loss in the polls when Comey did his thing, but was also expecting a rebound after the proles were told by the Clinton's guy in the FBI that Queen Hillary was squeaky clean.
But that didn't happen because everyone in the world was reading wikileaks and hammering home the point she was a corrupt cunt.
Nicholas Fisher
The constitution, as far as I know, does not guarantee the existence of a CIA or FBI. They need to be destroyed.
Landon Martinez

Jaxson Williams
...
Joseph Martinez
No, that's not how congress works. They can subpoena, they can research/investigate, and they can recommend for action, but that is the extent of their powers. Only the President and the DoJ can fire people at the FBI.
Easton Turner
I like the hell out of both of them but let me get this straight, so you're saying the guy hiding in Russia is a patriot and the one who's not in Russia is a Russian shill?
Xavier Reyes
This will never come to anything because either the memos don't exist exonerating trump or they do and Comey didnt report a federal crime
Ryan Russell
also to add to my other reply, congress can not arrest anyone. It's why Trey Gowdy gets so pissed off then the Dems fuck him in testimony. He can recommend they get held on charges but they don't have to power to arrest or charge, again that is the DOJ's / AG's job, aka Sessions and crew.
Jason Phillips
Yes, Trump |can| fire Mueller but it would go over about as well as a fart in an elevator.
Nathaniel Flores
If assanage could make it to Russia he'd be there
Samuel Ross
If the Comey memo exists and Congress + Special Prosecutor get their hands on it then it does not by itself prove anything.
Buuuut: It then means that Comey will have to answer for the contents of the memo and back up its contents.
TL;DR: Comey VS Trump in the MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEGA SLAM CAGE MATCH
Justin Davis
Fucking knew it.
Fucking called it.
NYT confirmed fucking Fake News.
Now watch as NYT and WashPo and the entire MSM completely drops and refuses to ever discuss this issue, ever again.
Every time. Over and over.
>Muh recount! >Muh hacked machines! >Muh Bannon is getting fired!
Etc etc.
>Sources Say!
And then as soon as they are confirmed false, they are dropped and never discussed.
Dylan Murphy
It was hilarious
>MUH MEMOS
>Bluff gets called: "Oh. Sounds important....Show them to us"
>....um...well....I left them on my table, but right now...I think I put them....I...I'll get back to you
The New York Times just got confirmed as Fake News, like the WashPo did back with their hacked machines recount story.
Kevin Miller
>>Muh recount! They happened? >>Muh hacked machines! That was alt right media re: soros >>Muh Bannon is getting fired! seems like he's been pretty well sidelined by kushner? is that in doubt?
James Roberts
this makes sense
Kayden Robinson
The document(s) are being withheld for the time being so that Muller's team has a chance to set up and process what they have. They don't want to pollute their investigation by releasing potentially sensitive information and Chaffetz understands that, extending the deadline to the 6th.
Bentley Ramirez
>I got proof!! >okay show it >...no
Caleb Mitchell
Everyone from RINOs to the media is wanting President Trump's head on a stick...so what would he have to lose by firing Mueller?
Tyler Morales
I have (((sources))) Comey does have memos but he has more about Obama than trump If it got out the narrative would change to Obama You will not be hearing about these anymore
Short version: When you fire a guy that both sides agree on as being impartial and fair then it is seen as pretty much admitting that you are guilty of what the special prosecutor is looking into you for.
Nathan Carter
fpbp
They never expected to be called on this bluff.
Leo Adams
Research it, Congress CAN halt Mueller in his current "investigating' position. So can the Justice Department...so can President Trump
President Trump can actually order (((Rosenstein))) to fire Mueller, and then turn around and fire (((Rosenstein)))
Ryder Jenkins
Read the letters, they have a reason to not provide congress with those memos right now. Muller's investigation has just started, recall what Sen. Graham said when the investigation was announced.
Jose Jackson
That Comey broke the law. He is required by law to report any possibly impropriety like obstruction to the DOJ immediately. He did not do that. He also told Congress that he had never been asked to stop an investigation and that it would have been highly unusual.
Dominic Walker
Does President Trump strike you as someone who cares about the optic narratives made by he political left?
