FOIA suit seeks records on Petraeus investigation
[Politico] A newly filed Freedom of Information Act lawsuit is demanding that the federal government fork over records from the investigations that led to former Central Intelligence Agency Director Gen. David Petraeus' guilty plea last year to a charge of mishandling classified information.

The suit, filed Friday in federal court in Washington by Daily Beast reporter Shane Harris and a pro-transparency organization, the James Madison Project, seeks information from three federal agencies -- the Justice Department, the Defense Department and the CIA.

Petraeus pleaded guilty in February 2015 to a single misdemeanor count of mishandling classified information by retaining notebooks containing highly classified information at his home without permission and sharing some of those materials with his biographer and paramour, Paula Broadwell. She was an officer in the Army reserve but was not officially authorized to receive the classified materials.

#2 Talk about making the rubble bounce. The obama thugs Really Really want him silenced.

I suspect that if they thought they could get away with it, they would kill him.

#4 Because Petraeus was DCI when Benghazi went down, I assume he is privy to a lot of dirty linen on both SECSTATE and the White House.

Makes one curious to know why they are so belligerent about not opening the curtain on that Charlie foxtrot.
