THREAD ICYMI: We successfully sued the U.S. Department of Justice to obtain James @Comey's personal emails used to conduct official FBI business causeofaction.org/fbi-records-sh… #FOIA #transparency
Of the more than 500 documents reviewed, the FBI released only 156 pages and withheld 370 pages in full, with 7 emails withheld under #FOIA’s law enforcement exemption nypost.com/2018/11/09/jam…
This exemption is used when the government can show (1) a law enforcement proceeding is pending or prospective, and (2) release of information about that proceeding could reasonably be expected to cause some articulable harm causeofaction.org/fbi-records-sh…
These records contradict the former Director’s claims that his use of personal email to conduct official business was “never used for classified or sensitive work”
The usage of personal email for government business hinders the public’s access to government accountability and transparency causeofaction.org/fbi-records-sh…
CoA will continue to report on the DOJ’s productions as they review and release the remaining 700 remaining documents deemed responsive to this matter. causeofaction.org/fbi-records-sh…
