Judicial Watch sues to obtain communications between FBI, Clinton-DNC lawyers

Conservative watchdog Judicial Watch said Tuesday it had filed a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit against the Justice Department in an effort to obtain communications between FBI lawyers and attorneys for Hillary Clinton’s campaign and the Democratic National Committee.

Judicial Watch wants any communications between former FBI general counsel James Baker and former Department of Justice attorney Michael Sussmann. Sussmann, a partner at law firm Perkins Coie, represented Clinton and the DNC during the 2016 election. It also wants any records related to any meetings between the two, as well as any records documenting the schedule of Baker.

The watchdog cited Baker telling investigators that he met with Sussmann in September 2016, a month before a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act warrant was approved to surveil the Trump campaign, as reason it is interested in the communications.

The watchdog is particularly interested in any documents and communications between Jan. 1, 2016, and Dec. 31, 2016.

Seek the full assets of Judicial Watch, so it can be exposed and shut down.
