The FBI emails, obtained by watchdog group Judicial Watch through FOIA requests, reveal the extent of the agency's concern with the whistleblower who alerted reporters to the now-infamous tarmac meeting between former President Bill Clinton and Obama's Attorney General Loretta Lynch.
An email chain sent on July 3, 2016 shows a pair of FBI agents discussing who might be responsible for alerting reporters to the Clinton-Lynch tarmac meeting, saying "we need to find that guy and bring him [in]."

"Do you think it was a SWAT guy?" asked one agent.
The other agent responded he believed it was a Phoenix PD officer working security detail.

"I'm trying to find out thru the PX STL. Hopefully, we will find out and at the very minimum, make sure he never works on any detail," said the second agent.
