The Daily Caller News Foundation sued the Department of Justice Thursday, demanding copies of three unclassified memoranda written by former FBI Director James Comey after he met with President Donald Trump.
The Freedom of Information Act suit, Daily Caller News Foundation v U.S. Department of Justice, was filed on behalf of TheDCNF by Judicial Watch, and is in response to DOJ’s denial of a June 9 FOIA request for the memos, and subsequent refusal to act on an administrative repeal.
Comey also wrote four classified memos about his talks with Trump, in addition to the three unclassified memos requested.
The FOIA request was denied after DOJ officials claimed the three memos are exempt from disclosure because they involve “information that would interfere with a pending law enforcement matter.”
The FOIA required DOJ officials to resolve the appeal by Aug. 30, 2017.
“Americans have a right know the full facts about former FBI Director James Comey’s unclassified memos regarding his conversations with President Trump and his aides prior to his firing,” said TheDCNF publisher Neil Patel. “And the FBI must be required to honor the Freedom of Information Act.”
“Comey leaked information from these memos so that it could be picked up by the media,” Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton added. “So it is a scandal that the FBI is hiding this information contrary to FOIA law.”
The suit was filed in the U.S. District Court for District of Columbia.
Judicial Watch, a non-profit government watchdog group, is also pursuing a suit seeking copies of Comey memos on potential interference by Russia in the 2016 U.S. presidential election, as well as litigation regarding Comey’s handling of his official laptop and other electronic devices, plus non-disclosure agreements regarding classified information signed by or on behalf of Comey.
Also Thursday, District Court Judge Judge James E. Boasberg approved The DCNF’s motion to consolidate its suit with similar suits filed by CNN, Gannett Satellite, Freedom Watch and Judicial Watch.

“Jewish
Indiana Jones” to Weigh In on UNESCO Temple Mount Controversy
UNESCO’s
recent resolution regarding the Temple Mount has sparked a furor of indignation
from individuals and groups who were horrified to discover that the Jewish
People’s millennia-long connection to the site was largely ignored by the
international group.
Even
the US presidential nominees have had their say.
Donald
Trump has called it a “one-sided attempt to ignore Israel’s 3,000-year bond to
its capital city” and “further evidence of the enormous anti-Israel bias” at the
United Nations.
Hillary
Clinton noted that it was “disappointing and wrong” that UNESCO was “considering
a resolution on Jerusalem that fails to recognize and respect the deep and
historic ties of the Jewish people to Jerusalem and its holy sites.”
But
what exactly are those ties, and how far back do they really extend? Chabad
Jewish Center of S. Orlando invites the public to a definitive presentation by
archeologist and scholar, Rabbi Avrohom Stolik. Hailed as “the Jewish Indiana
Jones,” Stolik provides a well researched and thoroughly engaging exhibition of
the historical evidence of the Jewish People’s continuous connection to the city
that dates back at least to the days of David and Solomon.
“In
recent years, archaeological discoveries in the ancient city of Jerusalem and
throughout the Land of Israel have uncovered key findings that present a
powerful and convincing case for the biblical narrative and for the Jewish claim
to Israel,” said Rabbi Yosef Konikov, director of the Chabad Jewish
Center.
Stolik
has received wide acclaim as a biblical archaeological scholar. In the
presentation, he will share his extensive knowledge of Jewish history, biblical
analysis and his passion for archaeology. The unique presentation will include
imagery, diagrams and videos that can benefit anyone, whether he or she has been
to Israel before or has any background in history or archaeology.
“These
are ‘hot button issues’ facing society today and Israel in particular,” said
Konikov. “This is a unique opportunity for people to learn facts on the ground —
and underground.”
Stolik
will present at 7347 W. Sand Lake Rd. on Wednesday, Nov. 2, at 7:30 p.m.
Admission is $12 in advance and $15 at the door. Reservations can be made

If you’ve had “difficult” coworkers, you know that, after a while, it becomes impossible to tell if they are mean or just stupid. Like someone who keeps bumping into you on a bus or subway train as the car moves, you can’t tell for sure if they are messing with you or just completely oblivious to their surroundings. After a while, incompetence and malevolence produce the same effects and put you in the same bind if you don’t change the situation.
This strange unity between incompetence and evil goes a long way to explaining Hillary Clintons career. Yes, we all know she is “Crooked Hillary,” but so many times during this election year in my head I’ve called her “Hapless Hillary.” She can’t tell a joke to save her life. Her fashion sense is horrific, even to a caveman like myself. She is an awful, wooden, robotic speaker, with no genuine warmth even while taking a selfie. She honestly does not know how to use much of modern technology. And so on.
Obviously, we can see all those things I just listed in a “crooked” light, and we wouldn’t be wrong: she is not funny because she is a hollow soul; she probably dresses like she does to pretend she has masculine power (or to emulate an Asian dictator); she speaks robotically because she detests having to interact with “the masses,” and despises having to convince others of her obvious “greatness” (#ImWithHer, anyone?); and she never bothered to learn how to use technology or protect classified information because she doesn’t care about consequences in other people’s lives and is used to ordering her underlings to handle stuff like that for her. And so on.
During the final presidential debate, the two-headed Hapless Hillary/Crooked Clinton candidate did it again: she said something so stupid that she might as well have meant it to be evil. Or maybe she said something with crooked intent, but said it in such a public setting that she looks stupid. We can’t know her state of mind for sure, but one thing we do know is that Hillary shared classified military information with the entire world.
Clinton, responding to opponent Donald Trump and a question posed by debate moderator Chris Wallace, boasted specific and “damaging” details about the United States’ nuclear response time to retaliate during a nuclear attack. Clinton said:
“But here’s the deal. The bottom line on nuclear weapons is that when the president gives the order, it must be followed. There’s about four minutes between the order being given and the people responsible for launching nuclear weapons to do so.”
“Secretary Clinton proved tonight she is unfit to be commander-in-chief,” a top-ranking DOD intelligence source said. “What she did compromises our national security. She is cavalier and reckless and in my opinion should be detained and questioned so we can unravel why she did what she did.”
Unravel why Hillary does what she does? Good luck!
According to Pentagon sources, the information Clinton disseminated publicly is Top Secret intelligence governed under the U.S. Special Access Program (SAP) which dictates safeguards and protocols for accessing and discussing highly classified and Top Secret intelligence. The specific details of the country’s nuclear response time discussed by Clinton, sources said, are only known by a handful of individuals outside top military brass, including the following “need-to-know” (NTK) officials:
President
Vice President
Secretary of State
Secretary of Defense
Secretary of Homeland Security
Attorney General
Director of National Intelligence
CIA Director
Deputy Secretary of State
Deputy Secretary of Defense
Special personnel designated solely by the President in writing
Sources said late Wednesday Clinton likely violated two different types of Dept. of Defense SAP protocols. Since nuclear response is part of the sensitive national plan for nuclear war operations, all of its schematics are covered under both “Intelligence SAPs” and “Operation and Support SAPs,” sources said. Both contain Top Secret information. …
“It’s truly incredible that (nuclear) response time as part of an ERO (Emergency Response Option) is now out there in the public domain to our adversaries.”
Hillary Clinton cannot find her words or her grip when it comes to explaining her emails scandals. She was obviously unable and unfit to handle classified information. Thus, she exposed America to grace national danger.
VIA Western Journalism
During Wednesday night’s presidential debate, she gave new life to that concern with comments thatdisclosed the time-span of America’s response for launching nuclear weapons.
“The bottom line on nuclear weapons is that when the president gives the order, it must be followed. There’s about four minutes between the order being given and the people responsible for launching nuclear weapons to do so,” Clinton said.
“Secretary Clinton proved tonight she is unfit to be commander-in-chief,” the website True Pundit quoted a top-ranking Department of Defense intelligence source as saying. “What she did compromises our national security. She is cavalier and reckless and in my opinion should be detained and questioned so we can unravel why she did what she did.”
Twitter was abuzz with Clinton’s revelation.
Why did hillary give away nuclear response time on international television? Let me guess “she didn’t know it was classified” #DebateNight
“Why is Hillary talking about the time it takes the U.S. to launch a nuclear strike against its enemies?” commented Kyle Becker on Independent Journal Review.
Sure, we get that you don’t like The Donald… but you’re talking about the time it takes the US to launch a nuclear strike against its enemies,” Becker continued.
“This four-minute figure may be ‘out there,’ but it’s certainly alarming how casually Hillary Clinton talks about sensitive matters of national security,” he added. “Almost as sloppy as hosting a private server without government security and transmitting classified and sensitive material via email.”
“Nice Hillary,” commented Andrew Mark Miller on Young Conservatives.
“Anything else you want to tell our enemies about our nuclear process?” he added. “What a disaster.”
In a leaked audio recording that surfaced, Hillary Clinton told supporters in February that she was likely to not sanction the trillion dollar nuclear upgrade project, according The Washington Free Beacon.
According to an audio recording of her comments from a private event in McLean, Virginia., Clinton revealed that she will not go ahead with the upgrade. "I certainly would be inclined to do that," she said when asked about pushing back the Long Range Stand-Off (LRSO) missile program.
The audio, which was from the event attended by campaign supporters, was revealed by hackers who accessed the email account of a campaign staffer, according to the Free Beacon.
The question was asked by former assistant secretary of defense Andy Weber, who was in charge of the Pentagon's nuclear weapons programs. Weber, along with William Perry, who served as secretary of defense under President Bill Clinton, batted for the abolition of the LRSO (Long-Range Stand-Off) program.
"Will you cancel this program if President Obama doesn't in the next 11 months and lead the world in a ban on this particularly destabilizing, dangerous type of nuclear weapon?" Weber asked in the recording.
To which Clinton replied she would be "inclined" to do so. "The last thing we need are sophisticated cruise missiles that are nuclear armed," she said.
The 30-year nuclear upgrade program aims to "modernize" the U.S. nuclear arsenal and build a new generation of weapons and production facilities to last the nation well into the second half of the twenty-first century.
This plan includes redesigned nuclear warheads, new nuclear bombers, submarines, land-based missiles, weapons labs and production plants. The estimated cost of the project is $1 trillion.
Clinton earlier told a peace activist that the planned $1 trillion nuclear weapons modernization program "doesn't make sense", according to The Huffington Post
Scrapping the program will not go down well with the Obama administration, which is confident of the result and boost for the country.
The State Department has confirmed via emails in response to Freedom of Information Act requests that "Clinton was briefed on aspects of the LRSO debate while serving as secretary of state."
"Do you oppose plans to spend a trillion dollars on an entire new generation of nuclear weapons systems that will enrich the military contractors and set off a new global arms race?" she was asked.
Clinton responded, "Yeah I've heard about that. I'm going to look into that. That doesn't make sense to me."
Meanwhile, former Air Force launch officer John Noonan said he did not agree that Clinton opposed the LRSO program. "There's been tremendous advancements in Russian and Chinese cruise missiles, coupled with an atrophy in American capability," Noonan said.
"The Obama Administration, to their credit, has acknowledged this and have budgeted for the LRSO," he said. "A President Clinton's Pentagon will be faced with the same tough reality."
In response to Clinton's reply to Weber in February, Noonan said she was "just petting a donor on the head and telling him he's pretty."
Are we endanger of another strike from the Radical Islamic Jihadist in the USA You betcha... The Obama administration has just bombed innocent with a joint effort of Saudi Arabia. The Saudi's dont care who they kill. They have beheaded their own people for being or converting to Christianity or Judaism. Everyone in Saudi Arabia are slaves to the Royal Family. They have even enslaved the princess of their own family because they want to convert to a Western life and become educated.
These Yemen Muslims just wanted to bury their beloved. Instead of burying one there will be a mass burials and that is on this Obama's head. He has endangered every citizens in the USA for his stupidity. Have you had enough or do you want another stupid President who can't even go to the bathroom on her own ,who has dementia who, shits herself. I say no. Stop the Communist Socialist Democrats ,,
US-Made Bomb Used in Airstrike on Funeral in Yemen, Human Rights
An investigation has revealed that the U.S. manufactured a bomb that killed more than 140 people, mostly civilians, in Yemen this past weekend, according toHuman Rights Watch.
The airstrike, on Oct. 8, 2016, by the U.S.-backed, Saudi-led coalition at a funeral service in Yemen killed scores of civilians, garnering international outrage.
A spokesman for United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon condemned the bombing in a statement, adding that "those responsible for the attack must be brought to justice."
HRW called the attack an "apparent war crime" today and urged for an international investigation into the incident.
“After unlawfully attacking schools, markets, hospitals, weddings, and homes over the last 19 months, the Saudi-led coalition has now added a funeral to its ever-increasing list of abuses,” Sarah Leah Whitson, Middle East and North Africa director for HRW, said in a statement today.
HRW identified the munition used as a U.S.-manufactured 500-pound laser-guided bomb after reviewing photos and video footage from the scene of the funeral service following the attack.
HRW called on the U.S. and other governments today to "immediately suspend arms sales to Saudi Arabia until it curbs unlawful attacks and credibly investigates those that have already occurred."
U.S. National Security Council spokesman Ned Price said the council was "deeply disturbed" by the reports of the airstrike on a funeral hall in Yemen.
"In light of this and other recent incidents, we have initiated an immediate review of our already significantly reduced support to the Saudi-led Coalition and are prepared to adjust our support so as to better align with U.S. principles, values and interests, including achieving an immediate and durable end to Yemen's tragic conflict," Price said in a statement earlier this week.
Just last month, U.S. lawmakers cleared the way for a new massive arms deal between the U.S. and Saudi Arabia to proceed, after voting against a resolution that would have blocked the sale of $1.15 billion worth of land military equipment from the U.S. to Saudi Arabia.
Advocacy groups have called on the U.S. for months to stop supplying weapons and assistance to Saudi Arabia because of the Saudi-led coalition's indiscriminate use of these arms on civilians in Yemen.
Amnesty International said last month that a U.S.-made bomb was used in a Saudi-led airstrike on a Doctors Without Borders (an aid group commonly known by its French acronym, MSF) hospital in Northern Yemen, which killed 11 and caused MSF to withdraw from the area, taking with it critically needed healthcare services.
U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights Zeid Ra’ad Al Hussein said in a statement earlier this week that, "the international community has a legal and moral duty to react robustly to the increasingly horrific levels of civilian casualties in Yemen."
"Since the beginning of this conflict in Yemen, weddings, marketplaces, hospitals, schools -- and now mourners at a funeral -- have been hit, resulting in massive civilian casualties and zero accountability for those responsible,” Zeid added.
I do like putin and i trust him more then I trust Hillary, obama and some people in the house and the senate. My question to you is do you want an nuclear war with russia over isis or do you want to end isis and begin peace.
Putin, Fearing For His Country, Declares WWIII Is Coming If Obama Makes One More Wrong Move
Hillary Clinton and Barack Hussein Obama are the founders of ISIS.
When Donald Trump made that statement several months ago, liberal media pundits lost their mind. They could not believe Trump abandoned political correctness and called out criminals for their libelous acts.
Clinton and Obama did not just create ISIS, they micro-managed them for years. This was part of their master plan in 2012, and they are now being exposed for it.
In a WikiLeaks email, a memo was created by Obama’s top military advisers that made its way to all of our federal agencies, including Hillary Clinton at the State Department.
Their Hidden Agenda Is Now Being Exposed
Hillary and Obama were well aware that ISIS was forming and they knew exactly where they wanted to take control–so why did they not eliminate this terrorist group right then and there?
Obama and Hillary are both globalists that dream of a hemispheric common market, with open borders and open trade. In order to accomplish their goal of doing so, they needed a major player to do the dirty work for them. That is why they allowed ISIS to form, metastasize, grow, and take control of the Middle East.
Obama and Hillary’s Globalist Dictatorship Revealed
On top of allowing ISIS to wreck havoc, they needed someone very wealthy to finance the operation and push the agenda in a way that could not be traced back to either of them and the United States government. That is where George Soros comes into play.
Soros, a wealthy crony, has long financed open borders, global agendas, silencing the people, and dictators. This master-plan plays perfectly into what he has been wanting to do for years.
In this video, InfoWars breaks down all of the documents and emails, proving that not only did Obama and Hillary create ISIS, they did it deliberately in a way that would allow them to remain in power.
By allowing ISIS to remain a major force in the Middle East, it gives the United States power to dictate terms with neighboring nations. Furthermore, it also allows the refugee crisis to occur, which gives the United States direct control of policy decisions in European countries.
In order for Obama and Hillary to carry out their globalist agenda, they needed three things to happen.
First, they needed to establish partnerships and deals with all Muslim nations (claiming to be) fighting ISIS. This is where massive cases of quid-pro-quo came into play.
While Secretary of State, Hillary approved massive weapon deals to Muslim nations, that also fund terrorism, in exchange for millions of dollars into her own pockets.
When Hillary supplied nations like Saudi Arabia and many others with weapons, she knew they would filter them down to ISIS, and that is exactly what happened. While Hillary supplied ISIS, she also found a way to collect more than $100,000,000 in “donations” from these terrorist nations.
Why else would they be donating this much money to her? It was “hush” money.
Second, the United States needed to create an “explosion,” of sorts, in the Middle East that would expand the chaos into other nations.
When the refugee crisis occurred, it gave Obama and Hillary the perfect way to profit more and expand their agenda even further in early 2015.
In order to jump start the refugee crisis, the United States needed to added players to their team. They began with German Chancellor Angel Merkel, whom Hillary has praised as her favorite world leader.
They also used George Soros to push for open borders. In doing so, they formed partnerships with other nations to take in refugees because “it was the right thing to do.”
While Hillary and Obama brainwashed Europeans into accepting refugees, they also knew that terrorism would spread into these Nations, as well. All of this was part of the plan.
They Now Have Many Partners In Their Master Plan
While Obama and Hillary allowed ISIS to expand into Europe, they knew that it would ruin weaker Nations. The fear of terrorism has taken over Europe while Islam is running rampant has forced weaker nations in asking the United States for help. That has allowed the United States to step in and meddle wherever the choose now.
With that, we have our third point.
There is only one country not listed above that poses the biggest threat to the United States: Russia.
As all of this unfolded, Russia was the only world power that stood up and challenged the Clinton/Obama agenda.
Take note of what Obama and Hillary created. Europe, including nations surrounding Russia, are amassed with refugees, terrorism, and countries that have been brainwashed by Obama and Hillary to hate Putin.
In order to crank up the pressure, Obama has also stationed missiles in Syria to fire upon Syrian and Russian forces in the area.
Ask yourself this: why would Obama risk World War III with Russia because when all they are doing is bombing ISIS? Why is killing terrorists a problem?
Obama is mad that Putin is taking out his valuable asset (ISIS). Every decision on this list, made by both Obama and Hillary, have three things in common: terrorism, the Middle East, and the United States meddling in other countries.
There Plan Laid Out In every Decision They Make
Things have gotten so tense between Russia and the United States that Putin has promised that World War III is coming if Obama makes one more move to disrespect Russia and place his citizens at risk.
This globalist agenda between Hillary and Obama almost worked. They planned for Hillary to win the election and then she would continue the plan, but Russia has had enough.
The liberal media argues Trump and Putin are working together for personal reasons, but maybe they are working together to end this globalist agenda.
Why do you think Democrats, Obama, and Hillary blame Russia for all of the WikiLeaks? Because they know Putin is putting a stop to this corrupt, globalist agenda and they do not want him to expose or ruin their plans.
We are on the verge of WWIII with Russia if Obama and Hillary are not careful. We are talking about nuclear war, not a few planes flying here and there.
We better realize how important this election is right now or Hillary Clinton will drag us into a war with Russia that will cost hundreds of thousands of lives.
