After reading between the lines, this is a bad sign although expected. Obama is basically telling the FBI is eff off. This is his counter to the FBI leaks.
Comey won’t let up. I look for him to resign in protest following completion of the investigation when Lynch does nothing. Look for huddling at the White House. Best case for Obama and the FBI is the appointment of a special prosecutor. Obama washes his hands. Hillary is tried and convicted in the court of public opinion.
The criminality will be too blatant to ignore. Trump will shove this up the Democrats’ butts. The media dogs with their fixation on Trump will render Hillary as dead as road kill by foaming at the mouth at Trump.
Alternative scenario: Obama fires Comey and orders the DOJ to investigate FBI leaks, claiming collusion with the Republicans and Fox News.
