jwatch.us/JnQABv
Comey reportedly received an advance of over $2 million for his book that is set for publication today. Former FBI agents & officials writing books on their tenure are customarily required to submit the entire transcript for pre-publication review. (3/8)
jwatch.us/JnQABv
This is the second JW lawsuit on the Comey book. After Comey signed on to write his book in August 2017, JW sent a FOIA seeking FBI docs re: book deal & coordination on his testimony w/ the Senate – & we filed a FOIA lawsuit w/ DOJ in January 2017. (4/8)

On @ABC on 3/15/18, Comey admitted to leaking convos w/ Trump to get a special counsel appointed: “I gave that unclassified memo to my (friend), who was also acting as my lawyer, but this wasn’t a lawyer task, and asked him to give it to a reporter.” (5/8)
jwatch.us/JnQABv
JW also has other lawsuits related to Comey & the FBI, including seeking access to the so-called Comey Memos, info on the Comey Memos metadata, docs re: the handling of classified info signed by Comey, lawsuits with @DailyCaller re: Comey, & more. (6/8)

BREAKING: Judicial Watch signed a settlement agreement with the State of California & the County of L.A. under which they’ll begin the process of removing from voter registration rolls up to 1.5 million inactive registered names that may be invalid. (1/8)
jwatch.us/vUVqet
This Judicial Watch lawsuit confirmed that Los Angeles County has on its rolls 1.5 million or more potentially ineligible voters. This means over one in every five L.A. County registrations likely belongs to a voter who has moved or is deceased. (2/8)
jwatch.us/vUVqet
This JW lawsuit related to the National Voter Registration Act also uncovered the stunning fact that neither the State of California nor Los Angeles County had been removing inactive voters from their voter registration rolls for the past 20 years. (3/8)

NEW: JW filed an amicus curiae brief in the Supreme Court in an effort to overturn a decision of the 10th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals that upheld Utah’s law engineered by GOP legislators to compel GOP members to change how they choose candidates. (1/3)
jwatch.us/GcCJ43
Until 2014, GOP members elected delegates to represent them at the nominating convention, which selected candidates for the general election ballot. But the Utah legislature enacted SB 54, which effectively compels parties to hold primary elections. (2/3)
jwatch.us/GcCJ43
JW President @TomFitton: Republican power-brokers in Utah hate party conventions which they can’t control, so they passed an unconstitutional law to control the party at the expense of grassroots activists. The Supreme Court shouldn’t let this stand. (3/3)

jwatch.us/EsgPrN
In a related Oct. 2017 lawsuit, DOJ refused to release Mueller’s budget, but later was forced to release details from the redacted Aug. 2nd memo where Deputy AG Rosenstein gave broad authority to Mueller – three months after Mueller’s appointment. (2/5)
jwatch.us/EsgPrN
JW is also pursuing multiple other FOIA lawsuits on the surveillance, unmasking, & illegal leaking that targeted President @realDonaldTrump & associates during the FBI's investigation of potential Russian involvement in 2016’s presidential election. (3/5)

James Comey's tweet and translation from December 7, 2018.
JC is playing to be smarter than the House Committee on the Judiciary and the House Committee on Oversight, the Department of Justice and the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
#QAnon @realDonaldTrump #WWG1WGA #QAlert #MAGA
TWEET TRANSLATION
JC knows he is going to jail and the only thing he has left is lied and ridicule the members of the Committees present at his hearing. Especially to President Trump referring to him as this president.
#QAnon @realDonaldTrump #WWG1WGA #QAlert #MAGA #PatriotsUnite
Coincidence?
12/17?
Comey is going to testify again on December 17, 2018. Lie is the only thing he can keep on doing to prove he is under control of the situation.

#BREAKING: THE WHITE HOUSE COUNSEL, DON MCGAHN, HAS COOPERATED EXTENSIVELY W/ MUELLER'S OBSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE INVESTIGATION.

He has detailed the most damning episodes in at least 3 voluntary interviews that have totaled 30 hours over the past 9 months.
nytimes.com/2018/08/18/us/…
#FLAG: McGahn has disclosed details surrounding...

- The firing of former FBI Director James Comey.
- Trump's obsession with putting a loyalist in charge.
- Trump's repeated urging of Sessions to claim oversight of the investigation.
- Trump's attempts to fire Mueller himself.
#FLAG: MCGAHN AND HIS LAWYER COOPERATED...BECAUSE THEY THOUGHT TRUMP WAS GOING TO SET HIM UP AS "THE FALL GUY."

They were suspicious when Trump didn't protest letting him be interviewed...

So McGahn cooperated extensively to cover to demonstrate that McGahn did nothing wrong.
