Did Wikileaks Just Uncover Hillary’s Mole Within the DOJ?
Today’s 25th installment of the WikiLeaks emails contained a blockbuster. The assistant attorney general for congressional relations, Peter Kadzik, used his Gmail account to inform John Podesta of next steps in the DOJ Clinton email investigation. Kadzik is now reportedly heading up the “review” of documents and emails seized from Anthony Weiner’s computer.
Here’s what the May 19, 2015 email from Kadzik said:
There is a HJC oversight hearing today where the head of our Civil Division will testify. Likely to get questions on State Department emails. Another filing in the FOIA case went in last night or will go in this am that indicates it will be awhile (2016) before the State Department posts the emails.
There you have it. An assistant attorney general gave the campaign chair of a presidential candidate under investigation by the FBI a heads up on next steps related to that investigation.
On top of that, Kadzik is the one who sent a letter to Democratic congressmen saying that the Department of Justice was adding additional resources to the Weiner computer investigation.

Who is Kadzik? We have learned in WikiLeaks emails that he is a very good friend of Clinton campaign chair Podesta. Here’s how the Daily Caller reported their relationship last month.
The day after Hillary Clinton testified in front of the House Select Committee on Benghazi last October, John Podesta, the Democrat’s campaign chairman, met for dinner with a small group of well-connected friends, including Peter Kadzik, a top official at the Justice Department.
The dinner arrangement, revealed in hacked Podesta emails released by WikiLeaks, is just the latest example of an apparent conflict of interest between the Clinton campaign and the federal agency charged with investigating the former secretary of state’s email practices.
According to the Washington Free Beacon, Kadzik has previously donated to several Clinton initiatives, including Hillary’s 2008 campaign.
Up until now, Wikileaks emails between Podesta and Kadzik only showed a friendship. And the fact that Podesta claims Kadzik, “kept me out of jail.” Today’s dump by Wikileaks shows that Kadzik was, in fact, providing the Clinton inner circle with information regarding the email investigation.
Not only was Kadzik providing this information, but he did it through his personal, not governmental email address —likely to hide it from the National Archives.
Kadzik should immediately be taken out of his role in this investigation. The American people deserve an impartial Department of Justice. (For more from the author of “Did Wikileaks Just Uncover Hillary’s Mole Within the DOJ?” please click HERE)
