The watchdog organization Judicial Watch has made a significant development by obtaining 54 pages of records from the Department of Justice (DOJ) through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit.
In a tweet posted on Saturday June 22, these documents reveal that the FBI Office of Congressional Affairs (OCA) communicated with a Democratic staffer, providing information on FBI whistleblowers.
This disclosure has raised questions about the interplay between the FBI, its oversight mechanisms, and partisan influences.
The records, which Judicial Watch received after filing a lawsuit to enforce its FOIA request, include emails and memos detailing the interactions between the FBI and a staff member from the House Judiciary Committee.
