Trying to map a politically viable route out of the national security infractions committed by former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch professed herself "unable to find any evidence that Secretary Clinton had any malicious intent."
"We're thinking that her use of an unsecured private computer server for classified communications was just an honest mistake that could more properly be attributed to ignorance or incompetence," Lynch speculated. "Judging from events on the campaign trail, it is not implausible to hypothesize that brain damage from a concussion she suffered last year or early onset dementia are more likely explanations for an error of this magnitude."
Lynch contrasted Clinton's actions with those of former CIA employee Eric Snowden "who intentionally exposed US government secrets. The damage done by Mr. Snowden is immense and continuing. The credibility of everything our government does was undermined."
The AG further contended that "the fact that Secretary Clinton is leading in the race for the Democratic Party's presidential nomination would seem to indicate that the American people are willing to overlook her innocent mistakes. Rather than blindly pursue a 'by-the-book' approach, we're leaning toward allowing the process of getting voter input to play itself out. If voters elect her president we'd take that as a sign that we should 'forgive and forget' this relatively minor infraction. After all, if she becomes president she could simply pardon herself regardless of what our Office might do to prosecute her anyway. So, why make an investment in an effort that could so easily be undone?"

Hillary always thought of herself as either a female Robin Hood, or an American Joan of Arc, but larger in the rear than the French girl.
Intent/Incompetence are both equally prosecuted in these matters of National Security!!
How is this satire?
DOJ, as the organization responsible at the Federal Level for Law Enforcement, seems to be following Obama’s lead and is willing to abandon the rule of law if or when the law would ensnare an ally or key political or financial supporter, or when it would otherwise be politically unpopular with the far Left.
How sad, but this is clearly the direction the current Administration has been taking this country (down)....
Remember, Lynch and Obonzo are turning criminals loose to roam the streets all over the U.S. right now.
