“The FBI has asked law enforcement agencies who responded to Pulse nightclub to withhold records from the public, according to officials.
A June 20 letter from the FBI, attached to the City or Orlando’s lawsuit over withholding 911 calls and other records from 25 media outlets including the Orlando Sentinel, was also sent to the Seminole County Sheriff’s Office with instructions pertaining to how they should respond to records requests.
The letter requests that agencies deny inquiries and directs departments to “immediately notify the FBI of any requests your agency received” so “the FBI can seek to prevent disclosure through appropriate channels, as necessary.”
“A spokeswoman for the Sheriff’s Office said the FBI sent them the letter Monday night and “instructed us to forward it to anyone requesting records.”
The lawsuit, which was filed in Orange County Circuit Court, moved to federal court after the City of Orlando named the Department of Justice as a defendant in the case. An attorney for the city said the change was made because “the dispute is really between the FBI and the media.”
Barbara Petersen, President of the First Amendment Foundation, said the “FBI doesn’t have the authority to hijack Florida’s constitution, which guarantees us a right of access to all non-exempt public records.”
“The FBI has not informed many Americans that they are on various encrypted “kill lists” published by the Islamic State or others inspired by the terrorist group.
“The FBI and other government agencies have very wide latitude to deny releases of information for the public for national security reasons, to a degree that I personally find very unsettling,” Ryan Mauro, a national security analyst for the Clarion Project, told Newsmax Tuesday in an interview. The Clarion Project, based in Washington, monitors Islamic terrorism and its supporters in the U.S.
“All they have to do is say it is related in some way to an ongoing investigation or national security,” Mauro said. “It is very difficult for the public to contest that rejection because you don’t know what they are holding.
“The way that government agencies seem to block researchers like myself at every turn is something that should be of concern to every American,” he said.
“Circa News accessed copies of the some of the lists and called a sampling of Americans listed. They included homemakers, military personnel, college professors and art dealers.
The New York residents sampled told Circa News that they had received calls from the New York City Police Department about their being on ISIS lists.
But in Texas, 22 of the 24 citizens sampled said they had not received any information from the FBI or from their local police departments, according to the report. Two police departments in which residents lived also said they had not been informed.”
“The Clinton Foundation is ‘a vast, criminal conspiracy’ and ‘a slush fund for grifters’ with thousands of honest people who are victims after contributing their hard-earned money to what they believed would be used for philanthropic causes.
In truth, the money that was donated to help earthquake victims in India and Haiti and HIV/AIDs sufferers in the Third World has mostly enriched the Clintons and their friends through scams spanning the globe, claims author Jerome Corsi in his book, Partners in Crime: The Clintons’ Scheme to Monetize the White House for Personal Profit, which will be published in August.
Driven by insatiable greed while crying they were near-broke, the couple schemed and Hillary used her position as secretary of state to leverage lucrative deals for the Foundation as well as six-figure speaking fees for Bill Clinton.
The scheme engineered through the Foundation has enriched the Clintons by hundreds of millions of dollars as well as adding $2billion to the Clinton Foundation and raising $1billion for Hillary’s second run for the presidency, writes Corsi in his upcoming book.
The Clinton Foundation is ‘a philanthropic foundation the Clintons appear to use as a personal piggy bank’, writes Corsi, a political commentator and author known for his two New York Times bestsellers, The Obama Nation and Unfit for Command, which both criticized the Democratic party and presidential candidates.
Corsi adds that some of the funds have been used to pay off those with first-hand knowledge of Bill’s long history of errant sexual behavior.
Bill Clinton secretly established ‘pass-through’ bank accounts to hide kickbacks from Clinton Foundation donors and sponsors that only enrich the Clintons themselves.
In yet another Clinton ‘get-rich-quick-and-often’ scheme, the Foundation involves a massive a ‘pay to play’ bribery scheme in which seven-figure charitable donations and six-figure speaker’s fees were sought in return for favorable policy decisions engineered by a secretary of state running the Clinton Foundation via a private e-mail service – in direct violation of national security laws.”
