Bloomberg) -- The FBI unexpectedly released 129 pages of documents related to an investigation closed without charges in 2005 into President Bill Clinton’s pardon of Marc Rich, a wealthy Democratic donor’s husband.

The file was posted online Monday but received little attention until the FBI noted it in a tweet on Tuesday afternoon. It comes as Director James Comey faces fire from Democrats and even some Republicans for releasing information about a renewed investigation into Hillary Clinton’s use of e-mail.

The unusual timing of the release was the result of a Freedom of Information Act request which had been completed and was posted under standard FBI practice, according to a law enforcement official.

Possible shot across the Clinton bow by the Bureau.

Most likely theres an Obama mole in the FBI sticking it to Hillary.

Which would make this even sweeter.

I'd like to see what they have, when they pardoned the Puerto Rican terrorists.

This is curious.  First the DOJ opposes but does not order Comey to quash his letter, then they go ahead and get the warrant for Wiener's files, then Obama's spokesman Josh Ernest refuses to condemn Comey, and now this.

I have a feeling OPapaDoc is attempting to save his own skin at this point.  No sense antagonizing the man with all the evidence.

Very high stakes, indeed.

Very high stakes, indeed.

Just breezin through this group of threads, I can say with a higher percentage, that this wench may win the election, but she might never be inaugurated.

The inner Clinton circle makes Nixon's look like  boy scouts.
