The attorney general could have ordered FBI Director James Comey not to send his bombshell letter on Clinton emails. Heres why she didnt.
Twelve days before the presidential election, FBI Director James B. Comey dispatched a senior aide to deliver a startling message to the Justice Department. Comey wanted to send a letter to Congress alerting lawmakers that his agents had discovered more emails potentially relevant to the investigation into Hillary Clintons private email server.
The official in Deputy Attorney General Sally Q. Yatess office who received the FBI call immediately understood the explosive potential of Comeys message, coming so close to the presidential election. Federal attorneys scrambled into offices on the fourth and fifth floors of Justice Department headquarters, where they huddled to figure out how to stop what they viewed as a ticking time bomb.
It was DEFCON 1, said an official familiar with the deliberations. We were incredibly concerned this could have an impact on the election.

Well, what did this article produce that was new? Very little to nothing.
There are a few sentences said to describe the internal workings of the FBI and the DOJ but there is absolutely no attribution much less second source confirmation.
It appears to me the Compost is washing it’s hands from the incident.
Further action by AG Sessions will not be the result of Compost reports.
For different reasons.
The Clintons were being paid NOW to bend US policy to Muslim interests. IMHO, they don't care one way or the other about Muslims or the US, as long as their position and Chelsea's is secure. They have a normalcy bias about the strength of the US. They are corrupt.
Obama is a true believer, and is working for the long-term dominance of Islam and the eventual submersion of the white race.
This is the classic example of cognitive dissonance, whereby the mechanics of disclosures are blamed, while the contents of the disclosures are completely ignored as if they never existed in the first place. It’s a rather conspicuous form of dissociative amnesia.
From the Dem playbook, When attacked go to any one of the reponses:
>Attack the messenger
>Use the “everybody does it” defense
>Play the “victim” card
>Play the “race” card
Did I miss any?
By george, I believe you got it!!!
I don’t disagree with what you wrote. Both are international criminals for different reasons, but never think for one second the Obamas won’t be taking millions in bribes from the Muslims.
Yes you did miss one very important response they routinely use: Lie.
I voted for Trump as well as millions of people throughout the USA when Whoopi Goldberg and the Hollywood celebrities went on national television and said the were leaving the country. That's all I needed to hear and I said yeah go Trump. He will do what nobody else has been able to do and drain Hollywood of all these anti-Americans. And yet they're still here. So, as we all know they are just a pack of lying liberals that ended up helping Trump through their stupidity.
Do we use the word TRUTH anymore?
EVERYTHING that got out to the public (us proles) in this mess happened to be the truth!
I guess that there ‘truth’ thingy isn’t important anymore.
Good point. Running out the clock. That's been the conniving Clintons MO since Lewinsky BJ'ed the crap out of 'em.
Back when Pres Bill got leinskied in the Oral Office, the first thing the cunning Clintons did was take a poll. The poll told them Billy had to stall for time, to lie for as long as he possibly could, before coming clean.......
Apparently, another poll told the Clintons they could be reelected handily
if they exploited Bill's ability to have sex w/ younger women (smirk).
STROLL DOWN MEMORY LANE----One Clinton lies .....
"I never had sexual relations with that woman...Miss Lewinsky."
...... and the other one swears to it.
=============================================
VINTAGE TIME COVER The Clintons leave the WH
arm-in-arm after Bill got lewinskied. Plotting to exploit
Bill's BJ for votes, the Clintons' political apparat never faltered.
Hillary later went on network TV all decked out in virginal pearls,
denying everything, blaming Billy's B/J on "an invention of a VRWC."
Bill later admitted to it, was impeached, and disbarred.
He had to pay Paula Jones 800,000 dollars.
==========================================
"Incidentally Chelsea, did your kindly sensitive parents tell you the reason you were being hustled off (in that classic "smiling Clinton solidarity pose" on the vintage TIME cover?) Did mom and dad tell you daddy got a BJ in the Oval office? Did they explain the details of a BJ to you?
=====================================
Maybe Chelsea was not allowed to read the Daily News?
Hillary could have used government email like other officals did and there would not have been any issue. Hillary has no one to blame but herself.
You give Obama too much credit. I do not believe he is that smart.
Besides, I think he wanted her to win so he could take all the credit.
” I think he never intended to help her get to be President. The Obamas and Clintons loathe each other”
And yet even Moochele stumped for Canckles. Yes they hate each other but big RAT, Socialist money was on her to win. That along with Trump trashing his legacy ( there is a joke in there somewhere) was enough for both of the Obama’s to get on board.
Yes. The purpose of this story (motive the lack of verifiable facts?) is to put the best spin on Lynch’s behavior during the entire Email mis-adventure. Trying to lay it all on Comey. Comey deserves what he gets, but Lynch was a political hack from the word ‘GO’ and never qualified to hold the office of AG.
Wait a minute, I thought the Russians caused her highness to lose.
Yes - it’s clearly the Washington Post doing what it does best, namely to divert attention, distort, excuse, hide, mislead, ignore inconvenient truths, and otherwise circle the wagons to protect the Church of Leftism and its ugly agenda from proper scrutiny and from accepting responsibility for their manifest failures.
Some top candidates for the Washington Post’s motto:
“Leftist Propaganda R Us”
“All Fake News, All the Time”
“False and Inaccurate, by Design”
“Don’t believe your lying eyes, trust us instead (suckers!)”
“A wholly-owned subsidiary of the Democrat Party”
“Truth is whatever we say it is.”
“Workers of the world - unite and throw off the chains of capitalist oppression!”
“Kill the rich (except for us, that is)”
“Death to all bigoted, racist, women-hating, Neanderthal-brained, heteronormative, transphobic, xenophobic, homophobic, Islamophobic, Fascist, Confederate-flag-waving, patriotic, Constitution-loving, Christianist, climate-denying, assault-rifle-owning-NRA-member, crypto-KKK-NeoNazi-TeaParty, uneducated, white male Trump voters.”
Just think: all these Voter ID laws are going to be re-submitted and most should get through if they don't have to fight the Justice Dept.
