(READ) Judicial Watch sues CIA for communications targeting Trump

Dated: January 24, 2022 by Sharyl Attkisson 23 Comments

      

The following is from the watchdog group Judicial Watch:

Judicial Watch announced that it has filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit against the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) for records of communications and meetings between then-CIA Director Gina Haspel and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Mark Milley (Judicial Watch, Inc. v. Central Intelligence Agency (No. 1:21-cv-03387)).  

The lawsuit was filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia on December 31, 2021, after the CIA failed to respond to a September 15, 2021, Judicial Watch Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request for: 

  1. All records of communication between CIA Director Gina Haspel and Gen. Mark Milley between November 1, 2020, and January 20, 2021.
  1. All records regarding all meetings between CIA Director Haspel and Gen. Milley between November 1, 2020, and January 20, 2021. This includes all summaries, notes, and transcripts, as well as all records created in preparation for, during, or pursuant to any such meeting.

Milley and Haspel reportedly had at least one conversation in which President Trump was attacked as being part of a โ€œcoup.โ€ โ€œIt ought to be disturbing to all Americans that the head of the CIA and the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs were reportedly conspiring against the President of the United States,โ€ said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. "Our new lawsuit will hopefully ferret out the truth about any plots to undermine President Trump by the military and CIA.โ€ 

On March 5, 2021, Judicial Watch filed a FOIA lawsuit against the DOD for records about House Speaker Nancy Pelosiโ€™s January 8, 2021, telephone call with Milley. Pelosi acknowledged the call in a January 8 letter to her colleagues.

      There is no crime of "premeditated treason." Thanks for that laugh.

      But seriously, there are certainly a number of serious questions CJCS Miley should answer.

        Your statement makes no sense. You say without doubt there is no ""Premeditated treason"" grounds. You then say "there are certain number of questions CJCS Miley Should answer." I see that concern might be due to November elections when the President will become a lame duck and this type of thing could hurt the left. By this type of thing I mean corrupt generals.

        Is there not something called โ€™Conspiracy to Commit Treasonโ€™?

      A better way to put it, is they conspired to commit treason, but we all know how that leads to accusations of "conspiracy theory" that is used to demonize those that find evidence of actual conspiracies. I Ilke to point out, that if there were no things as conspiracies, we wouldn't need a word for them, would we?

        "Conspiracy Theory". The correct response to that is "Yes". "I do theorize that there was/is a conspiracy".
        Just because the Left denigrates a label in language doesn't mean one has to play along. If one shows that the denigration has no effect, it will cease to be effective.

    Thank you for doing the heavy lifting in your profession.

    President Trump's biggest achievement was exposing the Mainstream Media's corruption. They chose Trump as the hill they would die on AND they did.

    Keep up the great work even though the deep state will continue to come after you like they did before.

    Words I would use to describe you are, BRAVE and COURAGEOUS!

    Sincerely,
    Lori Goldsmith

    Sharyl, as always, your reporting is EXCELLENT. Do be careful as the walls have ears. The Globalist cabal running the deep state operations (i.e. shadow govt groups and agencies) do not like when excellent journalists like you expose the truth of what actually transpires covertly in our so-called "republican form of govt."
    Most citizens turn to the fake-news mainstream media and swallow all the diatribe "hook, line, and sinker" - and, as such, have been brainwashed that such activities never occur in the U.S. SAD, very sad, when the military and CIA conspire against ANY sitting President. The deep state operators know they will never get caught as there are too many of them now. They all look out for one another. Not one thing will be done about the travesty of justices that occur every week in our govt. One hand washes the other, and the others scratch each other's backs. Congress is weak, and complicit with everything going on. I fear it is way too late to stop the treason that takes place on a regular-basis.

      Only to preserve the Constitution should Intelligence and Military defy the President, which reaches to declarations of war without Congress' approval.

    Until the mEDIA rises up and demands answers as to how the FBI raid on Veriatus and the subsequent publishing of FBI secured documents the FOLLOWING DAY in the NewYuck Timz took place it's proven that we have no Journalistic HONOR or integrity deserving protection in the US Constitution! And when THEY came for us, nobody was left to voice objections.

    Over the decades the CIA seems to be mentioned in covert activities sound and against a President. JFKโ€™s death was an example. Suggestions that the CIA and the military were colluding might well be true.
