Clinton camp appeared to have contacts with DOJ on email case
An official within Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton’s campaign appeared to have discussions with sources inside the Department of Justice (DOJ) about ongoing open records lawsuits regarding the former secretary of State’s emails, according to an email released on Tuesday.
In an email from May 2015, Clinton campaign spokesman Brian Fallon said that “DOJ folks” had “inform[ed]” him about an upcoming status conference in one of the lawsuits regarding Clinton’s private email setup.
The information about an upcoming court event would have been public knowledge and open for all to attend. And it’s unclear whether the people Fallon spoke to at the Justice Department were officials who regularly communicate with the public.
However, the fact that Fallon — a former spokesman with the Justice Department — remained in contact with anyone from the department is likely to renew allegations that the Obama administration maintained an especially cozy relationship with Clinton’s presidential campaign.
On Tuesday, Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump said the connection was “unbelievable.”
The email “shows a level of collusion which calls into question the entire investigation into her private server,” Trump spokesman Jason Miller said in a statement on Tuesday.
“The Department of Justice must release all communications with the Clinton campaign and her allies as soon as possible in order to definitively prove their investigation was completely above board.”
The email from Fallon was contained in a collection of more than 1,000 messages allegedly stolen from campaign chairman John Podesta and posted to WikiLeaks on Tuesday.
Trump may be pointing to the message in an effort to redirect attention to the email release, following an increasingly bitter split from top leaders in the Republican Party and intense scrutiny over taped comments that appeared to show the nominee bragging about sexual assault.
Trump and other critics of the administration have lambasted the Justice Department for its decision not to press charges against Clinton or her allies for mishandling classified information. They were especially incensed by an apparently impromptu June meeting between Attorney General Loretta Lynch and former President Bill Clinton on the tarmac at the Phoenix airport.
Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus also attacked the apparent connection, suggesting that the GOP senses a vulnerability for Clinton as Trump struggles in the polls.
“Emails showing the Department of Justice was giving Hillary Clinton’s campaign inside information about an ongoing investigation into her email server is deeply disturbing and raises even more questions about Bill Clinton’s tarmac meeting with Attorney General Loretta Lynch,” Priebus said in a statement.
“Instead of facing consequences for her actions like others have, she’s been protected at every turn by the Obama Administration so she can continue the failed policies of the last eight years."
The criminal investigation connected to Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server was not underway at the time that Fallon sent his message and would not begin for another two months.
That investigation, which ultimately did not lead to any charges, was separate and distinct from the myriad open records lawsuits filed in federal court accusing the State Department of unfairly withholding material related to Clinton’s time in office. Critics have accused the department of dragging its feet in response to those demands.
Personal lawyers for Clinton have been involved in some of the Freedom of Information Act lawsuits, but her campaign has not been involved.
Government officials have suggested that WikiLeaks is publishing material stolen by Russian hackers as part of an effort to undermine the presidential election.
“You are no media organization,” Fallon told the organization Monday on Twitter. “You are a propaganda arm of the Russian [government], running interference for their pet candidate, Trump.”

I love how they buried that. Yes, the DoJ has discretionary power to pass on an investigation, and yes the DoJ would likely consider the impact the investigation would have against government continuity and weigh that impact against the severity of the issue at bar.
Basically what the chairman said there was, the DoJ prioritized non-GOP agendas over the GOP's desire to see a grossly exaggerated lust for drama pursued, and his feelings are hurt and he doesn't feel appreciated.

Rofl at the trumpkins on this site acting like the election isn't over. Literally only thing in doubt is how big a blowout it's gonna be (my $ is on shillary exceeding 340 electoral votes....scratch that 360).
Time to face the music boys. Trump lost badly and he only has himself to blame. He had the easiest path to the presidency in the modern political era and he choked. Pretty sad that the guy who "wrote" the art of the deal failed to seal the easiest deal ever.
they took a drug addict weirdo and put him up against one of the most savage politicians in the history of our species. the fuck they expect? oh right, jesus etc. nm.
shout out to trump and pence warning their fish-eyed dullard strike force that the fix is in @ 46m 16s.
pence's career is over.

Seriously dish tyde etc it's time to let this abomination of a thread die and start a new one where yall can bitch about president clinton and share crappy alt right conspiracy theories without having to worry about the rest of us quoting your creepy posts about what a swell guy trump is.
rum dick: pretty sure ive been right about it being over for a loooong time now....see polls plus electoral college "blue wall" plus basic math
howd brexit turn out? Oh a 4 point win despite being a 4-5/1 dog on the day of the vote? Nobody likes being considered a "racist" when the pollster calls
:TRAIN
Reminder that sidedish da king was on the Trump bandwagon about 10 years ago
exactly
all the same leftist tards bashing Trump now, are the same ones that said said he never had a shot to win the nomination in the first place
now the liberals are in full blown panic mode even though Trump continues to fill stadiums and arenas with 25,000 supporters and Hildercunt cant even fill a high school gym
these mainstream media 'polls' don't mean shit
The only way Hillary wins this is via massive election voter fraud, which I'm sad to say seems like its in full blown overdrive
Honestly folks, in my expert opinion I think Hillary might be up about 4 points. Nothing a good 3rd debate and WikiLeaks cant fix
