In A Stunning Revelation That Could Further Erode Public Trust In Federal Law Enforcement Agencies, Documents Obtained Through A Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA) Request Have Exposed Alleged “Collusion” Between An FBI Official And House Democrat Staffers Ahead Of A Hearing Featuring FBI Whistleblowers, According To Judicial Watch.
“These Troubling Records Show How The FBI Colluded With Democrats Hostile To FBI Whistleblowers Who Were Set To Testify To Congress,” Said Tom Fitton, President Of The Conservative Watchdog Group, In A Statement Regarding The Explosive Findings.
The Documents, Obtained Through A Lawsuit After The Department Of Justice Failed To Respond To Judicial Watch’s Initial FOIA Request, Reveal Correspondence Between An Unidentified FBI Office Of Congressional Affairs (OCA) Official And Damon Marx, Senior Counsel To Rep. Dan Goldman (D-NY), A Member Of The House Select Subcommittee On The Weaponization Of The Federal Government.
In The Email, Marx Expresses Gratitude To The FBI Official For Providing Documents Ahead Of The Subcommittee’s Hearing With FBI Whistleblowers And Extends An Invitation To Meet In Person, Further Fueling Concerns About Potential Collusion And Bias Against The Whistleblowers.
The Revelation Comes Amidst Ongoing Controversies Surrounding The Revocation Of Security Clearances For Three FBI Agents – Steve Friend, Garret O’Boyle, And Marcus Allen – Who Were Set To Testify Before The Subcommittee. Only Allen’s Clearance Was Subsequently Reinstated, According To Reports.
As Concerns Over The Politicization Of Federal Agencies Mount, The Newly Uncovered Documents Raise Grave Questions About The Impartiality Of The FBI And Its Alleged Coordination With Democrats To Undermine Whistleblowers Seeking To Expose Potential Wrongdoing Within The Agency.
