The Department of Justice is scrubbing references of radical Islamic beliefs from the transcripts of calls Orlando terrorist Omar Mateen made to police during his massacre, Attorney General Loretta Lynch said Sunday.

A partial transcript of the conversations between authorities and Mateen, who killed 49 and wounded 53 in the June 12 attack at a Florida gay nightclub, is set to be released on Monday. But Lynch, who appeared on numerous Sunday talk shows, said the transcripts will not include Mateen's oath of loyalty to ISIS or any other religious justification for the attack.

“What we’re not going to do is further proclaim this man’s pledges of allegiance to terrorist groups, and further his propaganda,” Lynch told NBC. “We are not going to hear him make his assertions of allegiance [to the Islamic State].

Sure, even if that was his main motivation -- they are trying to suppress it, to avoid having to admit that it was indeed a Muslim terror attack -- so people can't ask Obama why isn't he fighting Muslim terrorism.

Was 9-11 also just an attack by a couple of people that had nothing to do with Islam?

This will get pushed back and put out everywhere possible. Lynch is going to get a lesson on who is really in charge now.

Isn’t that called ‘tampering with evidence’?

Welcome to Obama’s Soviet America. Marxists always scrub historical accounts that conflict with their doctrine. That is why they will try to control the internet.

Why in the sam hill are they releasing censored transcripts??

Liberals always tell us they oppose censorship. I know, that is said in a different context.

But still, if the idea behind releasing this information, is to give us insight into the mindset of why he massacred people, but they censor his statements, they are distorting what they allegedly want the public to know about this vermin.

Department of Justice? Really? Are you doing justice to the American people by attempting to hide information from them? This entire administration is so screwed up they would know the truth from a rotten apple.

Better headline: “AG Lynch is scrubbing references of radical Islamic beliefs from the transcript so it doesn’t appear to conflict with the administration’s gun control narrative”

I bet if this radical Islamic Terrorist had been a Tea Party member, everyone of his friends and family would have been arrested.

If there is an issue with the terrorist’s conversation with the police, they shouldn’t release any of it,

But to take out just the parts that actually shows his motivation — the Islamic terror aspect is deliberately trying to protect the Muslim terrorist organization.
