The FBI lost notes from a 2015 meeting with people from the office of the Intelligence Community Inspector General (ICIG), according to newly released FBI records on the investigation of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s alleged mishandling of classified information.
The news raises concern that some information about an explosive lead passed by the ICIG to the FBI now might be lost.
The lost notes memorialized a meeting that took place on Aug. 3, 2015, less than a month after the ICIG made a referral to the FBI that classified information may have been disclosed in an unauthorized manner to a foreign power because Clinton conducted State Department business through an email hosted on an insufficiently secured server in her basement.
The ICIG-FBI meetings hold special significance because it was allegedly several of these meetings where the ICIG officials passed a lead to the FBI about anomalies in the metadata of the emails indicating that a copy of nearly every email was sent to an agent of a foreign power.
Several lawmakers, as well as the Justice Department’s Inspector General, publicly confirmed that then-ICIG Charles McCullough told them about the metadata anomalies and that the lead was communicated to the FBI. The FBI acknowledged that Clinton’s emails could have been breached by foreign actors who covered their tracks, but denied that any evidence of foreign infiltration was found. Several current and former senior FBI officials involved in the Clinton case denied in congressional testimonies any recollection of receiving the metadata lead.
Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-Texas), along with multiple anonymous sources, has alleged that Clinton’s server was compromised by a foreign hostile power, which was receiving Clinton’s incoming and outgoing emails.
The ICIG was examining the Clinton emails after it was asked by the State Department to check for classified information before the emails could be released pursuant to FOIA requests.
“When [the ICIG] did a very deep dive, they found in the actual metadata—the data which is at the header and footer of all the emails—that a copy, a ‘courtesy copy,’ was being sent to a third party and that third party was a known Chinese public company that was involved in collecting intelligence for China,” the former intelligence officer said.

CHINA really ramped up their economy and military capabilities significantly around 2013. Hillary Clinton and Diane Feinstein put China on the Fast Track to global dominance, and increased their ability to steal U.S. intellectual property!

“China is going to eat our lunch? Come on, man,” the former vice president said.
“I mean, you know, they’re not bad folks, folks. But guess what? They’re not competition for us,” he added.
In December of 2013, Vice President Biden and his son Hunter Biden flew to China on Air Force Two.
Ten days after the trip, a subsidiary of the Bank of China signed a deal with Hunter Biden’s investment firm, Rosemont Seneca Partners, to form a $1 billion joint-venture investment fund called Bohai Harvest RST.
The deal was later increased to $1.5 billion.
Rosemont Seneca Partners is an investment LLC under the ownership umbrella of Rosemont Capital.
Unlike most financial firms, Rosemont is headquartered in Washington DC.
Rosemont Capital, formed in 2009, is controlled by Hunter Biden and Christopher Heinz, the stepson of former Secretary of State John Kerry.
Also involved is Devon Archer, a longtime Heinz and Kerry friend. Archer was a fundraiser for Kerry’s 2004 presidential campaign.
A third partner in the China deal was the Thornton Group – headed by Whitey Bulger’s nephew, James Bulger.
The FBI lost that hot tip huh? Or buried…you decide.
