Washington D.C. – Judicial Watch announced that they have filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit against the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), the Department of Justice (DOJ) and the Department of Treasury regarding intelligence leaks involving General Flynn.
According to Judicial Watch:
Judicial Watch announced today that it filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit against the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), the United States Department of Justice and the Department of the Treasury regarding records related to the investigation of retired United States Army Lieutenant General Michel Flynn’s communications with Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak (Judicial Watch v. Central Intelligence Agency et al. (No.1:17-cv-00397)). (The National Security Agency refused to confirm or deny the existence of intelligence records about communications between Gen. Flynn and Amb Kislyak.)
Judicial Watch filed the lawsuit after the agencies failed to respond to a January 25, 2017, FOIA request seeking:
Any and all records regarding, concerning, or related to the investigation of retired Gen. Michael Flynn’s communications with Russian Ambassador to the United States Sergey Kislyak between October 1, 2016 and the present.
This request includes, but is not limited to, any and all related warrants, affidavits, declarations, or similar records regarding the aforementioned investigation.

President of Judicial Watch, Tom Fitton also made a statement:
“President Trump is on to something. The Obama-connected wiretapping and illegal leaks of classified material concerning President Trump and General Flynn are a scandal. Judicial Watch aims to get to the truth about these crimes and we hope the Trump administration stands with us in the fight for transparency.”
Thank God for Judicial Watch and their round the clock commitment to the American people. The Democrats won’t stop their witch hunt until we fight back with every tool we have. The General Flynn resignation was a scalping that emboldened the criminal Democrats. It’s time to expose their crimes and bring them to justice.
