Mar 9, 2016 - Lynch indicates DOJ not required to follow FBI recommendation

Yep. I wrote this thread because veryone seems to be forgeting that Lynch has all the power here - not Comey. Yeah, he should have recommended prosecution. But Lynch does whatever she wants - not Comey.

Comey shouldn’t have recommended anything publicly, the job of the FBI is to investigate not prosecute, but I do think his motivations stemmed from both attempting to speed up the process and avoiding the appearance that Department of Justice lawyers had influenced the investigation in favor of a major presidential candidate.

Nice thought, but it’s painfully obvious that the Billy/Lynch meeting went something like: My meeting with you will taint you and cause you to have to pretty much accept the FBI recommendation. So, send the FBI Director out to recommend no prosecution... Easy peasy. That’s obviously what she wanted to hear. How could it not be, since it’s what she told him to say?

Comey should’ve been wearing high heels and a micro miniskirt since he prostituted himself so fully on national TV.
