Judicial Watch seeking documents ‘unlawfully removed’ by Comey

Conservative watchdog Judicial Watch is calling on Acting FBI Director Andrew McCabe to recover and release federal records and memos it claims were “unlawfully” removed by former Director James Comey, threatening the FBI with a lawsuit should the bureau not comply.
Tom Fitton, president of Judicial Watch, penned a letter to McCabe on June 14 warning of a potential violation of the Federal Records Act, which is the basis for the federal government’s policies regarding the “creating, maintaining, and disposing” of federal records.
“As you may be aware, the Federal Records Act imposes a direct responsibility on you to take steps to recover any records unlawfully removed from the FBI,” Fitton wrote in the letter, claiming Comey unlawfully removed memos that could contain contents regarding the investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 election. “Upon learning that records have been unlawfully removed from the FBI, you then are required to initiate action through the Attorney General for the recovery of records.”
My question is, if JW can file this type of lawsuit, whether it's successful or not, how come the Republican party in DC is not doing the same? Hell, JW has been exposing a helluva lot more info lately than the Rep party has even thought of. The Party has just laid down like a dog concerning all of the unexposed info out there.

Because no memos were unlawfully removed.
Its not a crime to leak unclassified material and this group is just an attention dramam queen.

bullshite....the fbi director has language that NO material documented, on FIB equipment and time, can be removed without a process.
Question is, what else did he do in the grey area of these guidlines?

If it wasn't for JW, we wouldn't know about half the shite Odummy and Shillary were pulling.

If they GOP had half the chutzpah that JW does, Republicans might have actually been able to conserve something. They will get praise from allegedly conservative leadership, but no real or important resources are used to their advantage.

They're part of the problem.
