Boy, they sure are desperate to keep JW from peeling that onion. Here's the key piece of info:

What’s interesting is that Trump’s DOJ essentially said so — even having Federighi, the same career lawyer who argued the case for the Obama administration, do the same for it.

“It’s incredible,” Tom Fitton, the head of Judicial Watch, told me after Monday’s hearing. “They’re taking the same position as the Obama administration on Clinton.”

Fitton said he suspects the administration sided against him Monday because there aren’t yet enough political appointees at the Justice Department to redirect prosecutors. “I don’t think President Trump would be pleased” with his administration’s defense of Clinton, Fitton said.

In other words, the swamp hasn't been sufficiently drained. The Obama attorney who resisted Judicial Watch is still in charge of the case under Trump.
