From the Seth Rich FOIA case.
If you know FOIA cases, a Declaration by Michael G. Seidel is always the best place to start!
The fake news attached to Seth Rich makes it difficult to get factual information in this case.

Rich's work laptop is not FBI property & does nto contain agency documents. It is DNC property, so FBI does not have legal authority to release it under FOIA or to NARA...
As with all evidence, the FBI will have to give it back to the proper owners (the DNC) after all criminal proceedings have terminated.

Which means the criminal proceedings have not been terminated!
Confirming FBI has read the laptop (by not answering that question) but disputing if the agency 'relied upon' that information to make agency decisions.
The laptoop & records on it are not FBI records under FOIA & are evidence collected by FBI in criminal cases that are not over.
Seidel runs RIDS, so it's why his declarations are always fun to read in FOIA cases.
The laptop was not an FBI record, it didn't show up in FOIA searches for documents. But they did find hard copy documents (not in the Sentinel system) that were property receipts for the laptop.
But the newly found documents are FOIA exempt because they are evidence connected to an ongoing criminal investigation. RIDS found them decided they were FOIA responsive, but that they were exempt from release under FOIA law.
All of the information that is being withheld is due to valid FOIA exemptions.
The exemptions claimed are described here:

Release would expose classified info, pending cases, privacy issues, & law enforcment techniques.
This evidence was collected by SCO Mueller's office & is relevant to the prosecution of alleged Russian intel agents for hacking the DNC>
The FBI determined these specific documents & records are not subject to FOIA release.
DOJ is also seeking clarification on the parameters of the judge's ruling in regard to Rich's personal laptop. Was the order to release any nonexempt information or was the judge waiving away the exemptions?

I wonder if Speaker Johnson was authorized to reveal this information?

It's the worst kept secret in the US government.

SO it's about time someone admits it live on TV!
If you are only learning today that Trump was an FBI asset who took down Epstein, that evidence has been available for years.

Wait until you figure out it was Swampy Republicans, not Democrats, who pushed the false claims about Trump raping one of Epstein's victims because she reminded him of his teenage daughter.

I am going to break down the OIG report on FBI SAC of NYC Counterintelligence section & link it to other cases including #Spygate & the #RussiaHoax.
If you don't know yet, Trump & others were helping FBI hunt a Russian mole in FBI, Hillary told you a hoax.
oig.justice.gov/sites/default/…
This investigation began by at least 2010, when someone within FBI tipped the Russians off that FBI was tracking Russian illegal agents working in the US.

Why warn the Russians? The FBI & Russian spies were getting close to the Clintons & DNC fundraising.
While none of this is covered in the report, the FBI mole hunters at FBI started investigating to identify the new Russian spies being sent to NYC. But to find the mole, you need an asset borrowed from another agency that the FBI agents don't know.

Bill Clinton is partially correct, “WE” forced Ukraine to give up its nukes in 1994.
The “WE” was Clinton & UK PM John Major.

But the Clintons sold out Ukraine and Europe to the Russians. It’s why ‘we’ disarmed Ukraine & allowed NATO to whither until Trump arrived in 2017.
Ukraine became defenseless. Then Clinton rigged the 1996 Russian election to ensure Yeltsin won. Later, Clinton & Blair would rig the 2000 election for Putin. Then Blair would rig the 2004 election for Putin.

Putin has always been part of Clinton’s ‘WE”.
That Swampy “WE” was at risk of being exposed by money laundering investigations tracking the billion dollars a day flying from NYC to Moscow.
Yeltsin & Clinton agree to have FBI Dir Freeh protect Gore & Putin’s 2000 election campaigns by shutting it down.

If you are just learning about the Swamp creature named Leonard Leo & his control of ‘conservative’ judges who work for Fortune 500 multinational corporations instead of the American people; now is your chance to catch up.
#ButNothingsHappening
Leo’s friends then use your fake news to tell you that you should blindly support judicial rulings disguised as protecting the Constitution. When in reality, they are protecting Swampy relationships between corrupt companies & the politicians they own.
Why does your fake news want MAGA to support judges controlled by ’sleazeball’ Leonard Leo?

Because they believe that it’s very important that you support the judges who work for the Swamp.

How do they control them? Consulting fees, gifts & trips.

The Trump Rope-a-Dope with Vladimr Putin is over!
Now comes the knock out blows!

Putin has to throw in the towel today or be destroyed!
Trump knows Putin can't admit defeat, so will be defeated!

The Pro-Putin former commies from Germany are no longer weakening NATO.
You can see my earlier discussion on this topic here.

Gone are the days of German leaders from East Germany, weakening NATO by not spending their agreed upon defense budget.
Gone are the days fo German politicians buying energy from Russia & taking Swampy deals & well paid seats on Russian company boards.

Credit Suisse pleads guilty & flips for helping 475 US account holders hide billions from the IRS in off-shore accounts.
They have also signed a deferred prosecution agreement for other crimes & agreed to cooperate!
Crimes from 2010-2021!
#ButNothingsHappening
Credit Suisse will pay $510M in fines & penalties in addition to the guilty plea.

After corrupt bankers collapsed Credit Suisse, UBS bought them & are now also forced to comply with the cooperation agreement!

It's a 2 for 1 special! Image
The reason for the requirement to plead guilty is likely because when they committed these crimes, they were under a Deferred Prosecution Agreement signed in 2014 that required their cooperation.
They didn't think DOJ would hold them to it!
