The Real Obstruction of Justice We Heard From Comey
IWB ^ | Robert Carbery

Posted on 06/10/2017 5:35:53 PM PDT by davikkm

We heard quite a lot during Mr. Comey’s testimony to Congress on Thursday. But in what was yet another bombshell being downplayed by the mainstream media, we learned that President Obama’s Attorney General Loretta Lynch asked him to downplay the Hillary Clinton email investigation.

During the Obama administration, the AG’s office became extremely politicized under Eric Holder and then Lynch. Trump’s justice department needs to be much less partisan. As the Daily Caller pointed out, Comey said Lynch told Comey not to call the criminal investigation into the Democratic nominee’s use of a server while secretary of state. Instead, Lynch told Comey to call it a “matter,” to which Comey said Thursday, “confused” him. This pressure from Lynch led to Comey holding that confounding July press conference announcing his recommendation not to seek an indictment.

So Comey bowed to political pressure. He acknowledged that the conversation with Lynch gave him a “queasy feeling,” but he still went ahead and followed her marching orders as “that was not a hill I wanted to die on.” Probably didn’t want to be added to the Clinton body count either.

Those remarks by Comey on Thursday lend credence to the joke that went around recently. There’s a photo of Comey, with the caption “I did not recommend prosecution of Hillary Clinton because while searching her computer I found my suicide note.”

Call Lynch,ILLary and BillyBob...individually...before a Grand Jury and ask them about the Phoenix meeting and the word “matter”.

Call your reps and demand an investigation into whether the Clintons colluded with Loretta Lynch to obstruct justice and if the Obama administrations illegal surveillance of Trump was to interfere with a US election.

If we had a Republican party instead of a RINO party we wouldn’t have to call. Can you imagine if the parties were reversed? Democrats would be screaming bloody hell demanding the arrest of Obama, Hillary, Lynch, Comey. That’s one thing I admire about the Democrats, even though their politics are insane, they FIGHT unlike the limp wristed, half a fag, wuss bag Repub party where Trump is left pretty much to fend by himself day after day after day.

Bull. Paybacks a bitch. We can be nice in the second term, in the meantime: We won, get over it.

The true “obstruction” of justice was the dnc refusing to allow the FBI access to their servers after the alleged hack.

The Clinton/Lynch meeting.

The sandbagging of the Seth Rich murder investigation.

Not just that she asked him. That he followed through on it. She ordered and he did it, July 5 2016. “Matter.”

James Comedy is very confused person. He interprets Trump’s inquiry as not an order, but now it’s an order because he’s a coward, but he bravely refused to follow the order anyway. Even though he follows orders that make his sick to his pants not 9 months prior.

That whole hearing was a reality-bending display of quantum cognitive dissonance

Incarcerate Comey, Lynch, Obama, Clinton - enemies domestic.

Many criminals never stop unless incarcerated or eliminated.

Witness Comey, Lynch, Obama, Clinton.

Comey’s primary obstruction of justice was not saying what the MSM wanted to hear and forcing the lynching to take the long route.
