If you thought the Clinton email saga was buried six feet under, guess what—it turns out the FBI just forgot where they left the shovel. In a jaw-dropping development that proves just how deep the D.C. swamp really goes, Senator Chuck Grassley (R-IA) and Congressman Rick Crawford (R-AR) have revealed that thumb drives containing unreviewed evidence tied to Hillary Clinton’s email scandal have been sitting in an FBI office collecting dust since 2018. Six years. Six long years of silence from the same bureau that somehow always manages to leak like a sieve—unless it’s politically inconvenient for the left.
According to Grassley and Crawford, these thumb drives aren’t just filled with your average classified mishandling—they reportedly contain sensitive intelligence, foreign communications, Clinton Foundation dirt, and even emails involving former President Barack Obama. But instead of treating this material like the national security threat it clearly is, the FBI filed it away somewhere in Northern Virginia and apparently forgot all about it.
The two Republicans dropped this political bomb in a letter addressed to FBI Director Kash Patel, who now heads the bureau after years of weaponized law enforcement leadership. The lawmakers demanded immediate action, calling it “mind-numbing” that the so-called preeminent law enforcement agency in the world never bothered to examine materials that could potentially expose the highest levels of corruption and negligence.
Let’s not forget—this all ties back to the DOJ Inspector General’s 2018 report on the FBI’s handling (or mishandling) of the Clinton investigation. An appendix to that report, often referred to as the “Clinton annex,” was kept classified until recently. Now that it’s been declassified, it’s revealing just how completely the Comey-era FBI dropped the ball, or more accurately, buried it in a file cabinet in suburban Virginia.
Grassley and Crawford didn’t mince words. They accused the FBI of failing “to impartially conduct its law enforcement and intelligence mission,” which is a polite way of saying the Bureau was playing politics instead of doing its job. And let’s be honest—that’s exactly what it looks like.
The FBI had evidence, admitted in internal memos that it was necessary for a thorough investigation, and then just… did nothing. It’s not incompetence—it’s willful neglect. Or worse.
This isn’t just about Hillary’s emails anymore. It’s about whether federal law enforcement can be trusted at all. We’ll see what Director Patel does next, but one thing’s certain: the American people deserve the truth. All of it. No more thumb drives in hiding.
