Loretta Lynch's Black Panther moment
American Thinker ^ | August 3, 2015 | James Longstreet

Posted on 08/03/2015 9:09:29 AM PDT by jazusamo

Have we come to expect this now of our United States attorneys general?

The image is still emblazoned on my mind: those Black Panthers with billy clubs and paramilitary outfits confronting voters at a voting station. Video, proof, and no action from then-attorney general Eric Holder.

Now we have Loretta Lynch, a family friend of Eric Holder and his wife, and also a person who received her big career break from Bill Clinton.

Eric Holder, who was held in contempt of Congress, who sued states that attempted to enforce purposely unenforced federal law, never provided all Fast and Furious documents requested, and hid behind heavily redacted papers as well as presidential “executive privilege,” bent downward the justice curve of the office of attorney general.

Loretta Lynch seems to be of the same ilk. Presented by inspectors general with stark and clear evidence of classified documents on the private server of Mrs. Clinton, the silence from AG Lynch’s office is deafening. Add in the discovery of a cover-up at the IRS and the as yet non-action by Lynch, and we begin to wonder if there is a serious flaw in our three-branch system.

It's a foursome; Lynch, Holder, 0bama and Clinton are joined at the hip.

Nope. No flaw in the system. The Republican Senate didn't have to confirm her, and it shouldn't have. GOPe invertebrates are the flaw, not the "system."

"The Justice Department originally brought the case against four armed men who witnesses say derided voters with catcalls of "white devil" and "cracker" and told voters they should prepare to be "ruled by the black man." ..."

One poll watcher called police after he reportedly saw one of the men brandishing a nightstick to threaten voters.

As I walked up, they closed ranks, next to each other,” the witness told Fox News at the time. “So I walked directly in between them, went inside and found the poll watchers. They said they’d been here for about an hour. And they told us not to come outside because a black man is going to win this election no matter what.”

He said the man with a nightstick told him, “’We’re tired of white supremacy,’ and he starts tapping the nightstick in his hand. At which point I said, ‘OK, we’re not going to get in a fistfight right here,’ and I called the police.”...”

Eric Holder, not the EH who went to work for JPMORGAN as a security consultant for a million 300K A WEEK?

The one who refused to prosecute banks who bundled fraudulent loans and sold them to the unsuspecting public?

Yeah, that’s him.

Good post. That one event and Holder’s non action typifies the entire 0bama administration and it ain’t over yet.

Here’s a working link to the 2010 article. Didn’t realize the other was no longer good.

- Graham (R-SC)
- Hatch (R-UT)
- Johnson (R-WI)

Jamie Dimon is a globalist who is paying off Holder for his good work destroying freedom in America.

The invertebrates got in via the “system” - did they not? In fact many of us voted for them and promoted them during the elections.

And we the people are definitely the crucial cog in the system, so perhaps we the people are the problem, or as that wise frenchman once said - “people get the government they deserve.”

"wonder if there is a serious flaw in our three-branch system"

There's no wonder about it, the AG is a politician beholden to the politicians that pit them in office.

That's the flaw, it was never about the law.

There are no checks and balances functioning in the Judicial Branch, in which the Attorney General’s post resides,...

Is that correct? I thought the DoJ was part of the Executive Branch.

You’re correct, the DOJ is in the Executive Branch, the AG just works with the JB.

Certainly all law enforcement works with the JB but the AG is still an EB employee though right?
